113- 'CONFESSIONS OF A CEO,' FEATURING RFK JR., HITS THEATERS IN JANUARY
Deepak Chopra, Blue Zones' Dan Buettner, Tom Gegax Sound Populist Alarm

Los Angeles, Jan. 1,12, 2025 -- Climate change, growing wealth inequality, and a tainted food system are pushing humanity to the brink. The new documentary "Confessions of a CEO: My Life in an Out-of-Balance World" challenges corporate America to take responsibility for its role -- and its power to reform.
•••• Featuring Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Deepak Chopra, and Blue Zones founder Dan Buettner, the film is a bare-knuckled corporate critique told through the powerful true story of Tom Gegax, a once-toxic CEO who evolves from a profits-over-people, philandering executive going through cancer, divorce, and near-bankruptcy to a populist messenger.
•••• Distributed by Virgil Films ("I Am Chris Farley"), "Confessions of a CEO" will premiere in select theaters this January, followed by a digital release on February 11 on platforms including Amazon Prime Video and Apple TV.
•••• "Corporations are driven by high profits, annual revenues, and shareholder value," says Kennedy, a nominee to run the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, in the film's trailer. "They don't care about the land, the water, the people, the richness of life. You shouldn't be able to make money by poisoning public waterways and by poisoning the air."
•••• The documentary explores the profoundly good and bad impacts of corporate America &emdash; a source of jobs and innovation as well as fountains of greed, corruption, and pollution. Drawing from his life, Gegax highlights the dangerous shift to prioritizing profits over people, exemplified by the stark rise in the CEO-to-average worker pay disparity.
•••• "For too long I was Exhibit A for the toxic corporate greed that's suffocating Americans' quality of life and damaging the health of our planet," Gegax says. "Then I flipped the script to 'people over profits,' and I'm imploring corporate America to do the same."
•••• Virgil Films, known for "Super Size Me," "Forks Over Knives," and "Restrepo," will handle all aspects of the film's release, including theatrical, video-on-demand, streaming platforms, and television licensing. 

About "Confessions of a CEO" 
Tom Gegax is an entrepreneur and cofounder of Tires Plus Stores, where his strategic vision expanded the company from three Minneapolis gas stations to 150 locations and one of the largest independent tire retailers in America. Gegax's innovative customer service and operational efficiency drove the success of the company, now owned by Bridgestone. His life took a transformative turn when he faced up to philandering, cancer, divorce, and near-bankruptcy. The journey led Gegax to become a populist messenger and mentor to major American influencers. His "Confessions of a CEO" advocates for corporate reform and conscientious capitalism.

• 115- The Storytelling We Need - Sundance Filmfestival Jan. 23 - Feb 2, 2025
Dear Sundance Community,
Each year, the
Sundance Film Festival team watches and discusses thousands of  submissions from around the world to shape the annual program for the upcoming Festival. It's an opportunity to reflect on this moment in independent film, marvel at the immense volume of work produced by some of the world's most talented storytellers, and discover a group of artists as we look to the future. 
•••• Having just surveyed the state of filmmaking worldwide, we can confidently say that, despite a brutal climate for film financing and upheaval in the distribution landscape, fiercely independent artists continue to create boldly and with originality. The determination, resilience, and boundless creativity of these filmmakers underscores the urgency of Sundance Institute's core mission: to support artists and ensure that storytellers everywhere can sustain themselves through their work, and connect them with audiences. 
•••• We're proud that in the last year alone, through the Sundance Labs, artist granting, fellowships, intensives, and the Festival, the Sundance Institute provided support to a diverse community of nearly 1,500 artists. Of those who voluntarily shared their backgrounds, 64 percent are artists of color, 55 percent are women, 41 percent identify as LGBTQIA, 6 percent as transgender, and 8 percent have a disability. The voices and perspectives of these artists have never been more essential. 
•••• When our community gathers in January for the 2025 Sundance Film Festival, we will be coming together in a moment when our country's political divides feel more deeply entrenched than ever, the future of our industry more opaque, and the challenges of creating fiercely independent work perhaps more daunting. Yet, in such moments of uncertainty, we look to the arts and artists to help us find meaning, understand the past, and imagine our future. It's clear 2025 will be a year of electric, meaningful, and deeply personal storytelling -- the type of storytelling festivals are made for, and the type of storytelling we need in this moment. 
•••• After all, there is nothing quite like the feeling of connection when watching films together and engaging with work that fosters empathy, challenges us, and shines a light on perspectives from across cultures and around the world. We know that spaces dedicated to free expression, authenticity, innovation, inclusivity, and community have a vital and enduring role to play, especially now. We are proud that the Sundance Film Festival is and will always be home for meaningful and respectful dialogue, passionate exchanges of ideas, and a celebration of our shared humanity. 
•••• We can't wait to share more about the 2025 Sundance Film Festival program with you in the coming weeks. For now, though, we wanted to let you know how moved we are by this early glimpse of what the coming year holds for independent artists and audiences alike. We look forward to being together in just two months. 

Sincerely,
Amanda Kelso, Acting CEO
Eugene Hernandez, Director, Sundance Film Festival & Public Programming

• 107- About author, Adria Manary Adams

•••Adria Manary Adams is the author of several books including the bestseller, MOMMY MAGIC. Most importantly, she is mom to four amazing children and Mimi to six grandsons.
••• She is presently working on a book about her Uncle Elwin, about whom she heard stories throughout her childhood and wrote about in college.
••• The working title is Never Stand Still, which she feels incorporates her uncle's genius mind as well as his ability to always move forward, especially after the many career disappointments that he experienced.
••• Adria now lives in sunny San Diego, with her husband Gene and their little fur babies, who are also her inspiration in writing a new children's book entitled, Bubbly Bliss and Bouncing Banjo Find a Home.

THEY TOLD HIM TO BE QUIET - by Adria Manary Adams
When the government tells you to be quiet, alarm signals should go off in your brain. Only a chosen few know the full extent of its power, and my uncle, Elwin Laurence Peterson, regrettably found out the hard way.

During World War II, he worked at the Washington D.C. Navy Yard in the optics and machine shop. While there, he received several awards for his contributions to the war effort. One concern that he became acutely aware of, was the difficulty that all facets of the military were experiencing in communications. Methods of transmitting vital information to and from ships, submarines, airplanes and troops on the ground had become increasingly problematic since the Germans were intercepting and/or scrambling our signals. In exploring the situation, Elwin realized that varying the frequencies on which the messages were sent would disable the enemy from capturing our communications. Since frequency variation was a prominent component of a television system that he had conceived of in the late 1920's, and patented in 1928, he suggested that the government use this significant piece of his "Transmitting System and Apparatus," patent number 1,747,791.

ElwinPeterson.jpgHe absolutely believed that this method would provide clear, secured and unencumbered communication in military operations, thus saving many American soldiers.

After explaining how FM would benefit the Navy to the manager of his department, his
suggestion made its way up the ranks. In handwritten notes written by my uncle in 1945, he states:

"I was interviewed several times by various officers and engineers. At one of these interviews, a man who worked for Edwin Armstrong was in attendance. He had been called in because of his claim that Armstrong (now a Major in the Signal Corps), had been working on variations of wavelengths since 1931. At that point I informed the officers that I was well aware of his efforts, because I had demonstrated my version to Mr. Armstrong back in

Elwin Laurence Peterson

1929 and again in 1930, when Bell Telephone and the Postal Telegraph Company had requested his opinion of my invention."

What Mr. Peterson did not mention in this meeting was that after seeing these demonstrations, Edwin Armstrong later used what he saw to further his efforts in transmission technology, which eventually helped him to become who many refer to as the "Father of Radio". If Armstrong was to be given this title, then Elwin Peterson should have been credited for being the "Grandfather of Radio". (The Armstrong patent was filed in 1933. Peterson's patent was submitted in 1928, five years earlier, and finalized in 1930, three years before Mr. Armstrong's.)

2006/ImagesPersonOfTheWeek/01NBStubblefieldPOW108w.jpgWarnerNBSPromoLogo108w.jpg 102- Nathan B. Stubblefield, the Man History Overheard
By Harvey Geller
•••• In Life's current Bicentennial issue, radio checks in, at #86 on the hot "100 Events That Shaped America," 19 buttons behind Bell's telephone. Erroneously, Life lists Guglielmo Marcon's dots and dashes as the first wireless broadcast, a fable echoed by the World Almanac and Encyclopedia Britannica. It's a forgivable mumpsimus, since the evidence offered on the following pages has not, until now, appeared in any national publication.
•••• The birth of broadcasting is a bizarre soap opera saga, a lacrymal legend of mystery, machination, ephemeral enshrinement, decline, disillusionment and disaster. It's denouncement dissolves six miles north of Murray, Kentucky, in a two-room shanty constructed of pine and cornstalks, where radio's uncelebrated architect is discovered 48 hours after his death, his records scattered, his equipment destroyed, his brain partly eaten by rats. Even local radio fails to mention his demise. He is Nathan Beverly Stubblefield, the man history over-heard and then overlooked.

114- Scott B. Whitenack-Stubblefield Esq., great-grand son of wireless telephone inventor, Nathan B. Stubblefield, died - By Troy Cory
Scott Bryan Whitenack passed away untimely on September 18, in Los Angeles, CA.
•••• Scott, aka Scott Stubblefield, was one of four children with siblings, Alden, Keith, and Priscilla. (His brother Keith pre-ceded him in death at the age of 32). His parents were Troy Cory Stubblefield, an entertainer and author and Dorothy Swafford, owner of a furniture and antiques retail store. Scott's children are Steven, David and grand-children, William, Bruce, Cora and Max, borne to Steven and Skylark. Scott's great-grandfather is Nathan B. Stubblefield, the inventor of Radio, in 1882, and patent holder of the wireless telephone (1908) and his great-great-great .... grandparents were - John and Priscilla Alden who were part of the pilgrimage who sailed on the Mayflower to Plymouth Rock from England in 1620.

(The Stubblefield story is incorporated within several photographs and denotes of and about S Scott to show how their personal ambitions and dreams parallel each other - both died - before their dreams and ambitions were fulfilled)

SCOTT.jpg
During the time he studied for the State Bar, Scott lived with Josie and myself on our family estate in Pasadena. He passed the State Bar the first time and was among only 33% to do so.
The balance of time was spent doing cinematography for my TV shows, which he considered an artistic outlet besides his major life's work, in the field of law. After he passed the State Bar he handled numerous legal cases and ended up working as an associate lawyer with Melvin Belli with whom he engaged in several cases and won a lawsuit that became precedent case law. Whitenack was committed to his legal profession for over three decades.

If you needed legal advice or help with a motion filing, Scott was there with his trusty law books. He was very intelligent, outspoken and an independent thinker.
•••• He also was a family man, who loved hiking and scuba diving, a good game of tennis and enjoyed bringing his sons to Paramount Ranch for regular family outings and Father's Day get-togethers.
•••• As to his love for cinematography he videotaped additional segments for the movie "Christmas around the World." Scott later became my producer and cinematographer for "To Catch a Dream" filmed in Europe. The video project brought him and the production team to Paris, Venice, Cannes, Munich and Salzburg. Said footage with perfect picture-book pans of the Eiffel Tower, the Seine River, the leaning Tower of Pisa and the Venice Bridge of Sigh, is a legacy he left behind for us.
•••• In the early 90s during the writing of our 4-volume set of books entitled "the SMART-DAAF Boys" about the invention of radio and the the wireless telephone, Scott lent a helpful hand in giving his legal aspect of his great-grandfather Nathan Stubblefield's copyrighted and patented invention. He also was the co-author of "Bank America, the Tortfeasor."

at LA Herald-Express columnist Harrison Carroll's Cinema Reporting Prize press conference.

•••• His favorite poem is found on a card he prepared for one of my Father's Days titled "The Force That Through The Green Fuse Drives The Flower."

••••• He leaves behind his father, Troy Cory-Stubblefield, his mother Dorothy Steele, sister Priscilla Stubblefield Cory, brother and sister-in-law Alden and Sara Stubblefield, step mother Josie Cory-Stubblefield, sons David and Steven, daughter-in law Skylar, and great-grandchildren, William, Bruce, Cora and Max; Nephew Ryan White, and niece Jenny Wharton. His brother Keith pre-ceded him in death at the age of 32.
