Starting now.
Commonalities where guests find
common ground through uncommon
conversations, politics,
religion, finances,
all the topics your grandmother told
you not to discuss with friends,
and now your host, Matthew Dowling,
and today's guests on commonalities.
Creator. God. Let's be honest,
there are some things I'm
not thankful for today.
I'm not thankful for cancer
disease, addiction, and crime.
That's how I started the holiday blessing
before meals at our home just a few
weeks ago on Thanksgiving 2021 into 2022
were difficult times
for my immediate family.
In October of 21, I was
in my first car accident.
Less than a month later,
my sister Maria was diagnosed
with a rare form of ovarian
cancer. In June, my struggles
with addiction came to a head,
and I since removed my name from the
ballot and retired from the Pennsylvania
House.
The fall of 22 came with additional
health struggles for my father,
my aunt, and myself.
I don't share these things with you
publicly because I want your sympathy,
but rather to illustrate why
I don't feel Holly and jolly
this Christmas season. In fact,
part of me would rather not hear
holiday music or see twinkling lights
that said,
I've meditated and come to the
conclusion that Christmas isn't about
me. As Christians,
we believe that Christmas is about
the birth of a child that was sent
into our world to die for our
sins so that we can enjoy an
everlasting life with our creator.
I don't know what a greater cause
for joy and celebration could be,
but our human bodies are bound by
our emotions. And the truth is,
many suffer from multiple forms of
what I'll just call the holiday funk.
The holiday malaise can bring
many people to a breaking point.
Retail workers are under huge pressure.
Shoppers are stressed about gift buying.
Dads are in the cold hanging
sparkling lights from their roofs.
Moms and grandmas are worried
about cooking and baking.
It makes me wonder if we haven't
built Christmas into a holiday that's
so large that it's too
overwhelming to manage.
So this year, Rebecca,
the kids and I have made the
conscious decision to slow down and
celebrate a simpler
holiday season. Of course,
we still have family get
togethers, holiday parties,
and church services to attend.
I'm not suggesting that we as a
society forgo all of those traditions,
but for a type a
perfectionist like myself,
I'm suggesting that we embrace
our own imperfect humanity
and simply love and enjoy this time.
Knowing this time is difficult on some.
I would also encourage you to
check in on your friends, family,
and neighbors.
Celebrate the season with them in
a way that doesn't add additional
stress,
but does take into consideration
both your and their
mental health.
Check in on those who have
recently lost a loved one.
That first Christmas
without a spouse, parent,
or child can be devastating
for many instead of
perfectly decking your personal halls.
Think about joining a soup kitchen
or church ministry to help those in
need. I don't know who needs to hear this,
but if you're feeling gloomy and like
pulling the covers over your head and
forgetting the world this holiday,
remember why it is that we put so
much effort into Christmas traditions
and celebrations, the birth
of Christ, our Savior,
and for those who are
not spiritual, remember,
we do this for the next generation.
I recently pulled a set of eight
classes from the top shelf in my pantry.
These specific ornate glass cup only
get one or two uses a year,
but they were gifted to me
by my grandmother. Agnes,
I love them because they
remind me of Christmas's past.
I don't remember drinking
outta them as a kid,
but I remember seeing them
annually. The memories,
the generation before me
help to instill in my mind,
can make me smile no matter how
much the seasonal depression has set
in. I posted a photo of said
glasses to Facebook and Instagram,
and likely because they have a local
connection having been made by Hal's glass
in point, Marion, Pennsylvania.
Many others have messaged
me to share the same joy and
memories these eminent objects bring,
not because of the objects themselves,
but because of their connections
to the people we love.
So this Christmas,
if you're feeling overwhelmed
and dreary on these cold,
dark evenings,
instead of looking at Christmas
through your own fogged up lenses,
look at Christmas through
the eyes of a child,
your child's or the Christ child,
and you will experience the
true joy of this season.
You are listening to commonalities
where guests find common ground through
uncommon conversations.
We'll be back after this brief
break to recognize our sponsors.

And now,
we paused to take a look back at
2022 and the first nine episodes of
commonalities.
We started in mid-November with
episode one featuring Chuck Pasco
and Jeff Coleman, and we learned
that sometimes we don't see it,
but often there's a respect that
exists between political adversaries
that respect can be the foundation
for dialogue that builds understanding
and solves problems.
Hey, Chuck and I, uh, our friendship,
uh, I mean, he was at my wedding.
So we're, we're more than than just,
uh, uh, occasional sparring partners.
You know, this is a person that I
have a lot of respect for, um, knows,
know that at the end of a conversation
we can really disagree on some,
some core things about how we view
budgets or taxes or social issues
or, um, education. But in the end,
say that there is a lot
more that we have in common.
We care a lot about the same things, uh,
but maybe where we come at it is a little.
Different. In episodes two and five,
we heard some unique
perspectives on issues involving
education.
So education is becoming less and
less about academic learning and
academic achievement and
more about shaping the,
what kids think and how they
think it and what they believe.
We're trying to push
kids into career fields,
but I think we're also then kind of losing
some of the joy of just learning for
learning's sake. And I think that
might be why some joy is coming out
careers. We really do need to
focus on that. We really do.
How can we focus on that and make
kids still have joy in learning
other things that,
that maybe they won't use or maybe that
they will use decades down the road
and they don't know it yet.
In episode three,
we spoke with Representative Mike Jones
and learned that political parties
aren't always as unified
as they may appear.
But there's a lot of debate within
the party that people don't see
because it's generally
not public. We do a,
that 95% of that occurs rightfully so,
behind closed doors and what we know,
what we call the caucus room. Um,
so you won't see Republicans debating
with Republicans very often, you know,
in television interviews
or even on the house floor,
but that doesn't mean it
doesn't occur <laugh>.
And so I think that's something
people to your, to your point again,
might be interested to know. Uh, there
is plenty of debate within the party,
um, but it just tends to be a
little more, um, behind the scenes.
While commonalities tagline says
We discuss politics, religion,
and finances. We discussed
politics the most,
but in episode four,
we did hear from an award-winning
author who offered some inspiring,
encouraging words.
Well, I also wanna mention that,
um, I was in an accident, um,
back in June, um, cut.
We constructed ons, knees, kidney, um,
operated on three times. Um,
and that I was blessed enough that, um,
I am not, um, dead by now. Um,
I don't know, this is a, a graphic,
uh, picture of me. But, um, um,
that's what the accident left me in. And,
um, I'm, I'm blessed. I'm, I'm,
I'm beyond blessed and I find that, um,
God protected me through
that, through everything. And,
um,
apparently I have something to
why I'm still here. Something
I shouldn't be here,
but I am for a reason. And
we all are here for a reason.
You're doing what you do for a reason.
God gave you the ability to do it,
and you share it with people. And you may,
may have or may make a difference
in someone's life by one
single word, message, comment,
and you never even know it.
In episode six,
we sat down with a legendary
sportscaster and broadcaster John
Steigerwald to talk about
the importance of the media.
There's, there are so many stories
that I see that I, excuse me, that I,
um, covered on my radio show,
that I discussed on my radio
show. And I look, and I,
I I I, the, the local stations aren't
covering it. They just don't cover it.
If it's not a murder or a fire or a car
accident or the weather, it's not in the
newscast. Anything that requires, um,
enterprise, uh, requires a little
bit of guts maybe to do the story.
I I don't blame the people that you see
on the local stations and especially
the ones who have been
around for a while. If you,
if you agree with what I'm saying,
don't blame them because they know as,
as well as I do, that it
stinks and that it's the,
it's the way it's being run
by ownership and management.
And they're afraid to do controversial
stories cuz somebody might get upset
and, um,
it has to be a certain kind of a story
for them to have the guts to do it,
but they, they'll stay away
from anything that, um, would,
would get anybody upset.
And even in sports.
My friend Representative Aaron
Bernstein joined us for episode seven
where we continued the topic of
working together in a bipartisan forum.
Today's.
Show, uh, listen, Matt, I think, uh, I
love the show and what you're doing here.
I think the most important thing that
we need to do not only is, is uh,
is a society here in
our Pennsylvania area,
but also across the entire commonwealth
or also across the entire country,
is truly find commonalities
that we can work together on.
And you and I may have a different idea
of an issue, but at the end of the day,
people are just people trying to
do the best that they can. And,
and I think that we,
there's so many commonalities that
we have with each other and so many
commonalities even when
you don't think you do, uh,
with people that may currently view the
world differently than you do. So, uh,
I love what you're doing on the.
Show on Tuesday's episode episode nine,
we talked with representative Eric
Nelson about middle class jobs.
The federal government has
created an incentive, and again,
regardless of the politics, um,
whether you support actions that the
federal government or you oppose them,
um, the competition is on and
states across the nation are
competing for four h four different hubs.
The hydrogen hub, hydrogen manufacturing,
which is what Southwestern Pennsylvania
will, is really going after,
would be a multi-billion
dollar award to build a
hydrogen hub facility,
which we would then very
close to it have hydrogen
consumption and that would
allow us to make low-cost
products. So the partnership that
was created between some of our,
our major players,
and it's a public partnership
between us Steel EOR and Shell.
Um,
there's a number of different
hosts of additional employers
environmental groups,
and it's a bipartisan.
Effort. And just prior to Christmas,
we interviewed Kathy Morgan and Muriel
from the Fayette Chamber of Commerce and
discussed some of the excellent
programs they have to offer as well as
which of their members may be good
for last minute holiday shopping.
Well, you know, Matt, it
is the holiday season,
so I guess I would close by saying
shop local support Fayette County.
Keep the cheer here.
Keep the cheer here With this episode,
we are 10 in and as much fun
as it has been to look back at
2022,
I look forward to 2023 and have
great hope and anticipation

Each year the international community
loses some legendary figures.
These are the men and women who
are the newsmakers of sports,
entertainment and politics.
These are the role models and
community leaders that generations of
Pennsylvanians have come to know and love.
We pause now to recognize some
of the greats that passed on in
2022.
Queen Elizabeth II spent 70
of her 96 years on England's
throne, making her the longest
serving monarch in UK history,
both beloved and criticized for her poise.
Elizabeth navigated the decline
of the British Empire and the
modernization of the royal
family. She died on September 8th.
Her cause of death according to
official documents was old age.
Sidney Portier almost single-handedly
changed the perception of
black actors in Hollywood. The first
black person to win a leading actor.
Oscar Portier was also a
vanguard of the civil rights era.
His ability to transcend pop
culture stereotypes made him a
pantheon both on and off
screen as best seen in
the Defiant Ones lilies of the
field in the heat of the night.
Guess who's coming to dinner and
the nine movies he directed Between
1972 and 1990 Portier died of heart
failure. On January 6th,
the unforgettable intensity of James
Kahn brought to the godfather's son
Corone afforded him a long
productive screen career
that also included funny
lady misery bottle,
rocket Elf and the NBC Series Las Vegas.
He died from a heart attack on July 6th.
Olivia Newton-John was born in England,
but she became a venerable
America's sweetheart.
Her music career spanned country
dance pop and adult contemporary three
genres that made her a velvety chart
topper throughout the seventies and
eighties.
But it's her role as Sandy in Greece
that a marginalized Newton John,
she could convey virginal purity
and leather jacketed rebellion
in the very same breath.
What's more American than that?
Newton John died on August the eighth,
one of Rock and Roll's pioneers.
Jerry Lee Lewis hit big with a whole
lot of shaking going on and great
balls of fire.
His vivacious stage energy was
relatively unprecedented for the
1950s rivaled only by Chuck
Berry and Elvis Presley.
The Louisiana native
died a lawless offstage
life, including seven
wives, multiple arrests,
and a bankruptcy filing.
Lewis died of natural
causes on October 28th,
born in Philadelphia,
Pennsylvania. Bob Saggot,
America's dad developed a wholesome
image thanks to Full House
and his hosting stint on
America's Funniest Home videos.
But his standup comedy was far edgier.
Saggot died from blunt
head trauma on January 9th.
A country music legend Loretta Lynn
sang about life as middle class women
experienced it.
Harran is still influences
artists across genres.
Sissy Suspect won an Oscar for
portraying Lynn in the 1980s
coal min's daughter,
one of the best celebrity
biopics ever made.
Lynn had a minor late career
renaissance buoyed by our
collaborations with Jack White. Lynn
died in her sleep on August 4th.
Leslie Jordan's unexpected
Rise was one of the few joys
of the Covid 19 lockdown.
He'd spent years as a scene
stealing character actor,
most notably playing
Peacock ish Beverly Leslie
Unwilling Grace.
But Jordan's hilarious Instagram videos at
once. Sassy,
gossipy and endangering Earnest made him
something of an internet folk hero.
Seeing the world rally
around a 65 year old gay whit
who'd long existed on Hollywood's
margins, felt like a glimmer of hope.
Medical complications led to a car
crash that killed Jordan on October
the 24th.
You know Gilbert Godfrey's
voice the second you hear it,
his nasally brooklynese aligned
perfectly with Godfrey's
boundary pushing comedy routines,
which trafficked in Irre
ability and absurdism
I only sometimes mean to offend.
He wrote in a 2011 memoir that
addressed the crudeness of his
humor.
Children fell in love with his voice
over work as the Villainist parrot
Iago in a Latin,
but he also stole moments
in front of the camera.
Thanks to problem Child Wings,
Hollywood squares, and many
late night appearances.
He died of heart complications.
On April the 12th,
Angela Lansbury will be remembered for
her amateur detective skills on Murder
she wrote, for which the London born
Dame received 12 Emmy nominations,
but she's so much more a Tony
winning Broadway luminary
for her parts in Maim and Gypsy,
an Oscar nominated dramatic
actor for her roles
in Gaslight and the Manchurian candidate,
a voice performer associated with
timeless children's classics like
Beauty and the Beast in Anastasia,
as well as the 2018 Grinch
and a cultural figure
who is Saint like meaning
to those who adore her.
She died in her sleep. On October 11th,
Julio's Gangsters Paradise topped the
Billboard charts for three weeks becoming
the number one song of 1995.
He reportedly died of cardiac
arrest on September 28th,
a gifted comedic actress whose
investments in Scientology and other
contentious beliefs shaded over her.
Christie Ali won an Emmy
for her breakthrough role on
Cheers her many other career
highlights include Lacus talking.
Veronica's closet dropped dead
gorgeous and scream Queens.
She died from colon cancer
on December the fifth.
Lindsay Buckingham,
Stevie Nicks and Mick
Fleetwood tend to get the lion
share of Fleetwood Max applauds.
But Christine McVie is
every bit they're equal.
Having written Don't Stop Little
Lies songbird and you make
loving fun.
McGee's blues influenced propelled
the band forward when she joined
them full-time in 1970.
Even as backstage melodrama
threatened Fleetwood Max synergy,
she remained a vital upbeat force.
I think I was happy
pretty much all the time.
She told Rolling Stone earlier this year.
MCee died on November 30th
following a short illness.
Ray Liotta who died in
his sleep on May 26th,
could make even the dirtiest
mobsters and brow beaters at least
vaguely likable,
see his acting in things
like something wild.
Goodfellas Heartbreakers
and Seeds shade of blue

an abiding cultural figure.

death has been released.
