Sandy is a terrific host with some amazing advance from a person who has really done these things. We can learn a lot by checking out this podcast and from listening to Ms. Rosenthal and her guests.
Sandy is an absolutely great host. She always invites interesting guests and you can always learn a lot. Educational and fun
I was enjoying being a guest as well. Always grateful
For sharing information about light pollution concerns.
I’ve listened to several of Sandy’s podcasts and have enjoyed them very much! Life can be a struggle so learning about what others have done to succeed can be very valuable.
We need to find ways of coming together, uniting, and radically altering the ways we have been dominated by the big guys (whatever that is for you). This does start with collective action, and Sandy is shedding light on this key function. Thank you, Sandy and folks behind the production of Beat The Big Guys!!
Grassroots campaigns and the people behind them are the only way our society can manage to compete with corporations, lobbyists and those motivated only by extraction and profit. We need to hear their stories, learn from them and take action!
Sandy brings light to what could have been hidden. Encouraging others and giving a platform for empowered voices is the beginning of substantial change.
“Never underestimate the power of a small group of committed people to change the world. In fact, it is the only thing that ever has.” ~ Margaret Mead
This show brings this quote to mind each, and every time as I am reminded that change starts with one individual who inspires others to support them in their vision of making a difference in the world.
Sandy brings on incredibly varied guests that each leave me more educated about topics I often had no understanding of.
With each episode I hav... more
Sandy Rosenthal is a fighter for truth and justice. Citizens around the country need to feel empowerment and Sandy’s podcast is the right medicine.
Sandy has been such a blessing for New Orleans, and now she is shining the light on helping others take on problems in their communities. These podcasts encourage and inspire all of us to DO MORE!
While Sandy Rosenthal IS the voice/mastermind behind Beat the Big Guys, each time she careful vets a new guest and tells their story (or lets them tell the story), she is beating the big guys who have effectively re-written history to the disadvantage of others.
Sandy is THE VOICE for righting wrongs and giving a platform for people to tell their truths.
This is one of the genuine voices on air.
Thank you Sandy Rosenthal for providing this platform for people to share their stories of how everyday citizens can be courageous and empowered advocates and activists in their communities. I have no doubt that listening to this podcast will motivate and inspire others to believe they have the power to make change and help them write their own story about how they became a part of something larger than themselves!
Every episode highlights a timely, important story that needs to be told. The power of one person taking action on a tough or painful issue is inspirational. Sandy chooses stories that we all need to hear.
Don’t feel like you can fight city hall or some other entity? Sandy shows you how.
What an enjoyable walk through the women’s exercise movement. Sandy Rosenthal and the author encapsulated within their half hour together, a “bird’s eye view” of how this movement has affected all of us, particularly in areas of women’s health and self-esteem. I enjoyed the podcast and plan to listen again.
