Everybody wants a piece of Tavis Smiley

Podcast | Posted: Apr. 23rd, 2010

With a popular radio show on Public Radio International, a PBS talk show and numerous books to his credit, Tavis Smiley has it all: except, perhaps, a lot of free time.

So, I’m gonna share a little bit of knowledge with you: Everybody wants a piece of Tavis Smiley. I’m serious. Everybody. From his days on the air in the 90s with “The Smiley Report,” to “The Tavis Smiley Show,” which aired on NPR until late 2004, to his current PBS talk show “Tavis Smiley,” the brother is in serious demand.

Tavis came to Seattle in March 2009, as part of a book tour for “Accountable: Making America as Good as its Promise.” He was scheduled for an event at the main branch of the Seattle Public Library at 6:30 p.m. By 5:50 p.m., the 200-seat auditorium was practically full. I was supposed to interview Tavis at 6, but he was late. 6:05, 6:10, 6:12, 6:17: and still no Tavis. He arrived at 6:20, 10 minutes before he was to meet the crowd that awaited. But before I could interview him, there were other people in the room who wanted a second of his time. Tavis shook everyone’s hand, saying to everybody he met: “Hi. I’m Tavis. What’s your name? … Nice to meet you,” before moving on. Then he posed for a group picture with about 10 people. Then some of those people have questions they want to ask him. And by the time he sat down to talk to me, it was 6:24.

So, with his tour manager nearby, who had a clipboard under an arm, trying to keep him on schedule, and a personal assistant answering a barrage of calls on a cell phone, Tavis was good to go.
Here, in a little more than seven minutes, Tavis holds forth on civic engagement, the difference between the people in the yacht and those in a dinghy and knowing what something is when you see it.

Oh. And one more thing. Listen closely, because Brother Smiley likes to talk fast.

It’s not how much you accomplish in life that really counts, but how much you give to others. It’s not how high you build your dreams that makes a difference, but how high your faith can climb. It’s not how many goals you reach, but how many lives you touch. It’s not who you know that matters, but who you are inside. - Anabelle Del Rosario research paper writer

Great web page. Nice writing comments system. Sorry for the off-topic posting, however I ended up being quite satisfied with Djokovic’s play in the final of the Australia OPen this yr. The guy is simply unequalled. He exhibited he was as formidable as stainlesss steel. Only think about he he can whip Nadal who was so determined to gain as well as really was so motivated up during the 5th set. I am commencing to feel that Djokovic is doing some psychic work to take some forces on his side that really help him secure these kinds of matches against the greatest players in the globe
