She’s all that.
She’s no joke.
She is a powerhouse!
“The Giles Files”loves us some Sheila Johnson!
Take a listen and you’ll know why.
Her business savvy made her the first black female billionaire in America. And her moving autobiography “Walk Through Fire: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Triumph” reads like a dramatic screenplay. It was a fun and inspiring conversation with one of the most creative minds we’ve ever met.
The Giles Files kicks off our summer fun attending a DEATH OF CLASSICAL concert in the Catacombs of Green-Wood Cemetery in Brooklyn New York. Come along as we hang out, down in the dirt with the dead!
They write! They love! They drink! They write about what they love to drink! Meet Dorothy J. Gaiter and John Brecher, journalists and wine connoisseurs, whose much-loved "Tastings" column in the Wall Street Journal was a jumping off point for best selling books and tv appearances on Martha Stewart and CBS Sunday Morning, among others.
It all started with a bolt of lightening first meeting at the Miami Herald.. and blossomed into a shared love of words, train rides, travel.. topped off with wine!
Meet George Camacho – a real-life Jedi!
Get out your socks and sandals for this relaxing and soulful episode! In this episode of The Giles Files, we talk to George Camacho; a television producer turned Franciscan Friar! Not only is George super relaxing and sweet, he also has a funny sense of humor!
Join Nancy Giles and Nancy Wyatt talk to George to learn more about his life as a Franciscan. We ask so many questions about the “whys” and the “hows” of the Franciscan brotherhood from who St. Francis of Assisi is to why George Camacho left the television industry.
The Giles Files (courtesy of George (wink face emoji)) say, “Pax Et Bonum” or Peace and goodness be with you (hearts around emoji emoji)

We’re talking about the multi-talented Bobby Rivers who, according to The New York Times, is “a master interviewer with a gift for impromptu banter.” Damn straight! He’s done it all - as a host on shows on VH-1 and Food Network, an ABC News movie critic and entertainment editor, even as a young movie trivia game-show winner! And he’s talked to everyone from Paul McCartney and Kirk Douglas, to Carlos Santana, Meryl Streep and Whoopi Goldberg to name just a few. He’s our all-time favorite movie nerd and regularly throws down some knowledge as a writer for Turner Classic Movies. Bobby knows all, and has the stories to prove it.
