Today’s guest is Michael Ruskin. Michael is the last surviving member of his immediate family.  Mr. Ruskin writes for a living and writes and publishes memoirs and family history books for people who want their stories told and preserved as keepsakes for their family or to a wider audience.  The Vow, A Love Story and the Holocaust is Mr. Ruskin's latest book, but not his last. 

The Vow is the story of Michael’s parents.  A true story based on the lives of two people whose love, faith, and will to survive transcended one of the darkest periods in human history...the Holocaust.

Excerpt from the book: “As the last remaining captives were being herded towards the trains, David whispered in Dora’s ear. "No matter where they take us, we will meet back here in the Square, when this is over. Stay strong my Love, and know my thoughts and prayers are with you."  Dora replied with tears in her eyes. “I love you David and I will pray every night that God keeps us safe and brings us home to each other." -The Vow: A Love Story & The Holocaust”

Stuff You Should Know
Boysober

Boysober

Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want? That was the question Hope Woodard asked herself after a string of situationships inspired her to take a break from sex and dating. She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships. Taking a bold, unfiltered look into modern love, romance, and self-discovery, Boysober will dive into messy stories about dating, sex, love, friendship, and breaking generational patterns—all with humor, vulnerability, and a fresh perspective.
