Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Cincinnati-based Acclaimed Jazz Guitarist, Composer, Arranger, Bandleader & Educator Greg Chako.

We dive into his new 2026 album, Hard Bop – For the Record, and a remarkable five-decade journey through the world of music that sounds almost like it was written for a movie.

The album brings together the tradition, swing, storytelling, and musical exploration that have defined his career.

Greg’s musical journey spans five decades across the United States and Asia. Known for his warm guitar tone, lyrical phrasing, and deeply swinging approach, he has developed a wide-ranging body of work rooted in mainstream jazz, hard bop, Latin jazz, and world-influenced modern jazz.

In this conversation, we get into the making of Hard Bop – For the Record, the artists and experiences that shaped Greg’s sound, his life as a guitarist and composer, his adventures across the United States and Asia, teaching and leading, and the incredible twists and turns of a career that has unfolded across generations of jazz.

Obie-Award Winning Director, Writer, Actor, Founder of QSL Healing & Transformation Practitioner Leah C. Gardiner

Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with Obie Award-Winning Director, Writer, Actor, Founder of QSL Healing & Transformation Practitioner Leah C. Gardiner about creativity, identity, inner truth, healing, spirituality and the process of profound personal transformation.

For decades, Leah has worked at the intersection of creativity, identity and inner truth. Whether she's working with actors in rehearsal halls or guiding clients through transformational work, she describes the mission as remarkably consistent: helping people acknowledge who they've become, release what no longer serves them, and step into who they truly are.

As an adoptee who connected with her biological family through what she describes as channeling her deceased biological mother, Leah has a deeply personal understanding of trusting inner knowing and exploring what becomes possible when we listen to ourselves.

Her philosophy recognizes that while insight can happen in an instant, meaningful transformation requires integration over time.

Through QSL Healing, Leah now guides high-achieving individuals through The Quantum Soul Level Healing Integration Framework™, bringing together her experiences in theater, creativity, identity and transformational work.

We get into the whole story — her career in theater, her personal journey, identity, intuition, healing, inner truth and the path toward transformation.

Award-Winning Wildlife Artist, Biologist, Expedition Canoeist & Vermont-native Rob Mullen

Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with Award-Winning Wildlife Artist, Biologist, Expedition Canoeist & Vermont-native Rob Mullen about a life spent exploring the intersection of art, science, nature, wilderness and adventure.

We dive into Rob's fascinating journey and his new 2026 book, Boreal Wilderland: Art, Science, and Adventure in Earth’s Great Wilderness.

The book takes readers deep into the vast boreal wilderness stretching across North America, Europe and Asia — combining breathtaking paintings, sketches, photography, natural history, scientific insight and adventure storytelling to explore one of the planet's most important ecosystems.

Boreal Wilderland is the culmination of decades of wildlife exploration and wilderness art expeditions conducted through the Wilderness River Expedition Art Fellowship (WREAF), an organization founded by Mullen to connect artists with remote northern landscapes.

The book showcases the work of 30 artists and includes contributions from six scientific experts, creating a remarkable intersection of wildlife art, ecology, exploration, science and conservation.

We cover Rob's whole fascinating story — from biology and wildlife art to expedition canoeing, remote wilderness, conservation and the creation of a book dedicated to Earth's great boreal landscapes.

Coach, Business Success & Podcaster Roy Castleman: From Near Death to 7-Figure Entrepreneur

Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with Serial Entrepreneur, Coach & Podcaster Roy Castleman about near-death experiences, entrepreneurship, failure, resilience, regret, mental health, and completely rebuilding your life.

At 19, Roy was hit by a drunk driver traveling 70 mph on a South African motorway. Lying broken on the road, he wasn't consumed by the pain — he was consumed by regret over everything he hadn't done.

That moment became his blueprint for living without limits.

After emigrating to the UK in 1997 with just £75 in his bank account, Roy went on to build multiple 7-figure IT companies, survive the 2008 financial crash, and eventually acquire the very company where he had started his career as an engineer.

He thought he had it figured out.

Then he bought an adventure centre just before COVID, lost nearly everything, and eventually found himself in a hospital bed at rock bottom. That experience became the catalyst for another transformation and a new mission: helping entrepreneurs avoid the regret that once consumed him and build businesses and lives they can truly be proud of.

In this powerful conversation, we cover the whole story — from South Africa and a near-fatal accident to entrepreneurship, wealth, business failures, COVID, rock bottom, reinvention, coaching, and discovering a deeper purpose.

Recovering Litigator & Owner Dave Albrechta: From Litigation to Healing Human Conflict

Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with Recovering Employment Litigator & Owner of Aspen Grove Law Dave Albrechta about law, conflict, burnout, mediation, coaching, and a very different way of thinking about what lawyers can do to help people.

Dave spent a decade representing employees in federal court before stepping away from the adversarial legal system and asking a radical question: What if lawyers could become healers of human conflict?

After years inside traditional litigation, Dave began noticing a growing tension between the way lawyers are trained to handle conflict and the ways human beings actually heal, communicate, and resolve difficult situations. That realization led him toward mediation, integrative law, and coaching.

Today, Dave helps lawyers and professionals rethink their relationship with conflict, navigate burnout, and reconnect with the deeper purpose behind their work.

From his base in Colorado, we get into his journey from employment litigation to a more human-centered approach to conflict resolution — and the lessons he has learned along the way.

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with UK-based Jazz Flutist, Multi-Instrumentalist & Composer Eddie Parker.

We dive into his new 2026 album, Airborn, created with acclaimed guitarist Rob Luft, while exploring Eddie's remarkable life and career across the world of music.

Eddie Parker has built a career around curiosity, collaboration, experimentation, and an openness to musical possibilities. Along the way, he has worked with future musical luminaries including Django Bates and became widely recognized for his work in the 1990s with South African piano genius Bheki Mseleku.

He is also a regular member of the Will Gregory Moog Ensemble, while his Debussy Mirrored Ensemble has more recently gained attention for its distinctive compositions and performances.

Eddie describes himself as a qualified “eclectician” — a perfect description for a musician whose influences stretch across genres and generations. From Schoenberg to Santana and far beyond, Eddie explores a vast musical landscape while treating each influence with respect and transforming it through his own unmistakable voice.

In this conversation, we get into Airborn, working with Rob Luft, his collaborations with some of the most adventurous musicians of his generation, the evolution of his sound, the Debussy Mirrored Ensemble, the Will Gregory Moog Ensemble, and a lifetime spent exploring the endless possibilities of music.

Jazz, classical, fusion, electronic music, improvisation, composition, collaboration — Eddie Parker has traveled through it all.

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with Ukraine-born, NYC-based Jazz Guitarist George Grydkovets.

We take a deep dive into his powerful new 2026 album, Spirit In You, and the remarkable journey that has brought him into the heart of the New York jazz scene.

Featuring an all-star band of NYC musicians including John Raymond on trumpet, Ari Hoenig on drums, Ben Tiberio on bass, and Eden Ladin on keyboards, Spirit In You was produced by acclaimed guitarist Gilad Hekselman.

Set for release on September 18, 2026, Spirit In You is deeply connected to George's experiences, dreams, identity, and search for a life-affirming spirit through uncertain times.

In this conversation, we talk about his move from Ukraine to America, studying at The New School, the impact of COVID, finding his voice as a jazz guitarist, his dreams for the future, performing live, the making of Spirit In You, and so much more.

From Ukraine to New York City, George Grydkovets' story is one of music, movement, resilience, discovery, and the search for home.

Consultant, Speaker & Founder TJ Holloway on Leadership, Emotional Intelligence & the MADE System

Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with Leadership Consultant, Keynote Speaker & Founder of The Holloway Group TJ Holloway.

Over his career, TJ Holloway has helped thousands of leaders and professionals across the United States and Canada build stronger teams, improve communication, and develop the leadership skills needed to create lasting organizational success.

But TJ challenges a common assumption about leadership development: today's organizations may not be suffering from a lack of training — they may be suffering from a lack of development.

While traditional training often focuses on teaching people what to do, TJ focuses on developing the character skills that determine how people actually lead: accountability, emotional intelligence, adaptability, integrity, and self-leadership.

As the creator of the MADE System, TJ gives leaders a practical framework for turning personal growth into stronger leadership, healthier workplace cultures, better communication, and more effective teams.

In this conversation, we get into TJ's whole story — leadership development, organizational culture, emotional intelligence, accountability, adaptability, integrity, self-leadership, communication, personal growth, and why meaningful leadership begins with developing the person behind the position.

What happens when we stop asking, “What leadership training do people need?” and start asking, “Who do they need to become?”

TJ Holloway brings a thoughtful and practical perspective to that question.

Author & Lawyer McCracken Poston Jr. on The Zenith Man, Alvin Ridley & Shocking Georgia Case

Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with Former Georgia Politician, Decorated Criminal Defense Lawyer & Author McCracken King Poston Jr.

Born and raised in Northwest Georgia, Poston served four terms in the Georgia House of Representatives before returning to his legal career. His life and career took an extraordinary turn when he found himself representing Alvin “The Zenith Man” Ridley, a reclusive Ringgold, Georgia television repairman accused of holding his wife captive for decades before her death.

What followed became one of the most unusual criminal cases in Georgia history — and ultimately the story behind Poston’s book, Zenith Man: Death, Love, and Redemption in a Georgia Courtroom. Poston’s account explores the case, the people involved, the courtroom battle, and the revelations that challenged what the community thought it knew about Alvin Ridley.

Years after the trial, Ridley was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, adding another layer to a story about misunderstanding, perception, justice, and the ways people can be judged when their lives and behavior don't fit conventional expectations.

In this conversation, we get into the whole story — Poston’s political career, his legal journey, the strange and unforgettable Alvin Ridley case, the courtroom defense, the Ringgold community, the revelations surrounding the case, autism and the legal system, and why this story stayed with Poston long after the trial ended.

It's a remarkable story of crime, law, community, friendship, misunderstanding, and redemption — told by the attorney who was there.

After 29 years leading soldiers through complex operational environments and earning 2 Bronze Stars, Dustin Shepherd began a new chapter in higher education, where he teaches executive leadership, studies human behavior, and explores how trust, perception, and decision-making shape individuals and organizations.

Denise Donatelli: Take My Breath Away | New Jazz Album, Geoffrey Keezer & a New Perspective on Life

Welcome to a new edition of the Neon Jazz interview series with acclaimed jazz vocalist Denise Donatelli, talking about her powerful new 2026 album Take My Breath Away.

On this deeply personal return to Neon Jazz, Denise reunites with Grammy-winning pianist, arranger, and producer Geoffrey Keezer for a project shaped not only by music, but by an extraordinary journey through life, health, resilience, and a renewed perspective on what matters most.

The tracks on Take My Breath Away were originally recorded in May 2024 at Bunker Studios in Brooklyn, New York. But shortly after returning home to Los Angeles, Denise received difficult news: the results of a mammogram and biopsy confirmed breast cancer.

The album was put on hold as Denise underwent medical treatment throughout the following year. Thankfully, those treatments were successful, and she eventually returned to the studio with an “all clear!”

Now, Take My Breath Away is finally being shared with the world.

In this conversation, Denise opens up about the making of the album, her collaboration with Geoffrey Keezer, the unexpected pause in the creative process, her experience navigating cancer treatment, and the new perspective on life that emerged from it all.

This is a story about music, resilience, survival, gratitude, creativity, and finding your way back to the studio — and back to yourself.

We get into it all in this emotional and inspiring return of Denise Donatelli to the Neon Jazz interview series.

Business Success Brent Kocal Had It All — Then Asked “What’s Next?” | Better Beliefs & Spiritual Growth

Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with Business Owner, Storyteller & Spiritual Seeker Brent Kocal.

For more than 20 years, Brent Kocal built the “aspirational” life — the company, the marriage, the health, the house. Then he hit a wall that many successful people rarely talk about: he had everything and still wondered, “What’s next?”

His answer wasn't to work harder. It was to go inward.

Four ayahuasca ceremonies, a daily meditation practice, and a deep dive into the Tao Te Ching and Bhagavad Gita became part of Brent's journey into healing, consciousness, spirituality, belief, and the deeper questions of the human experience.

Today, he creates Better Beliefs, a narrative storytelling show exploring the stories we tell, the beliefs we carry, and how those beliefs shape our lives.

In this powerful conversation, Brent and Joe Dimino explore success, purpose, spirituality, meditation, consciousness, personal transformation, storytelling, and the search for meaning after achieving the life you thought you wanted.

What happens when you've accomplished the dream — but you're still searching for what's next?

Author, Actress & Filmmaker Jennifer Sklias-Gahan on The House in the Middle of the Street & More

Welcome to a new edition of the Famous Interviews with Joe Dimino series. On this episode, we talk with NYC-based Writer, Actress, Filmmaker & Author Jennifer Sklias-Gahan.

We caught up with Jennifer to delve into her haunting literary debut, The House in the Middle of the Street, and her fascinating life as a creative.

What happens when opening your front door invites in far more than you bargained for?

In The House in the Middle of the Street, the Greek-American author blends ancient mythology, dark whimsy, psychological suspense, and the uncanny to create a fever-dream fairy tale for tumultuous times. Part myth, part fable, and part psychological excavation, the novel explores the strange places where memory, identity, fear, and imagination collide.

Jennifer is a lifelong storyteller whose onscreen work includes roles in The Louise Log, Good Friday, and FBI: Most Wanted. She has also written and produced for Demivoula Studios and co-founded 18 Bleecker Films, creating projects that merge myth, memory, and the uncanny.

From New York City, we get into her new book, the creative process, acting, filmmaking, storytelling, mythology, writing, and the evolution of an artist who continues to explore the mysterious spaces between reality and imagination.
