My Mother's Ten Commandments with Guest Best Selling Author Marc Gellman
Manage episode 490453975 series 2991512
Though Dorothy was somewhat opinionated, she truly had a big heart. During my conversation with Marc, he shares story after story that had us laughing but Dorothy was the kind of woman who liked things done her way and it was best for everyone that you kept that in mind.
She loved keeping a clean house. It was duly important that her sons did well in school but what was clearly obvious was how much she loved her family. Dinners together every night was a must. Everyone had to share what happened during their day and what they had learned.
Marc has a number of very funny stories of his mother but what really rings true to me is that Dorothy had a huge heart. There's one story in particular that you'll hear my guest share that's heartbreaking yet so indicative of what kind of person Dorothy was and how she was constantly teaching her two sons life lessons.
"Seven Days of Shiva:Forty-Six Years of Puppy Love," has put Marc on the Amazon Best Selling Author list. It's the heartwarming and heartbreaking story of he and the love of his life, Barbara.
Our conversation will have you laughing and in tears, but it's powerful messages are worth every every second.
My mother began to list her “commandments” for being a good husband.
Number 1: As a husband, you should learn to keep your mouth shut.
Number 2: Your wife should be in charge of running the household.
Number 3: It’s not your place to plan the dinner meals. Your wife should plan that, and you should be happy with it.
Number 4: Your wife should be in charge of the checking account.
Number 5: Your wife should be in charge of paying the bills.
Number 6: You should not cash your paycheck on the way home. Bring your check home, uncashed.
Number 7: You should turn down invitations from your friends at work to go out after work.
Number 8: You should go directly home after work to your wife.
Number 9: You shouldn’t concern yourself with what other people have.
Number 10: You should be satisfied with what you and your wife have.
"When my mother was finished with her list, she said, “So, you understand what I’m saying?”
“Yes,” Marc responded.

"Should Have Listened To My Mother" would not be possible without the generosity, sincerity and insight from my guests. In 2018/2019, in getting ready to launch my podcast, so many were willing to give their time and share their personal stories of their relationship with their mother, for better or worse and what they learned from that maternal relationship.
Some of my guests include Nationally and Internationally recognized authors, Journalists, Columbia University Professors, Health Practitioners, Scientists, Artists, Attorneys, Baritone Singer, Pulitzer Prize Winning Journalist, Activists, Freighter Sea Captain, Film Production Manager, Professor of Writing Montclair State University, Attorney and family advocate @CUNY Law; NYC First Responder/NYC Firefighter, Child and Adult Special Needs Activist, Property Manager, Chefs, Self Help Advocates, therapists and so many more talented and insightful women and men.
Jackie has worked in the broadcasting industry for over four decades. She has interviewed many fascinating people including musicians, celebrities, authors, activists, entrepreneurs, politicians and more.
A big thank you goes to Ricky Soto, NYC based Graphic Designer, who created the logo for "Should Have Listened To My Mother".
