In a conversation as uplifting as his music, Randy Edelman graced the microphone of the Good News Podcast hosted by the brilliant Paul  Sladkus — delivering an episode that feels like a breath of fresh inspiration.

Recorded with warmth, wit, and heartfelt insight, Randy shared stories from his remarkable career as a composer — from writing unforgettable themes for beloved films to the deeper personal reflections that shape his art. With each answer, he radiated the same generosity and joy that have made his music resonate across generations.

Paul guided the dialogue with thoughtful curiosity, creating space for Randy to open up about the power of creativity, the bridges between emotion and melody, and the moments that define a life in music. The conversation was candid yet poetic, inviting listeners into a rare glimpse of the man behind the scores.

Listeners will find themselves smiling, nodding, and ultimately walking away with something rare: true Good News — a reminder of how beauty, perseverance, and heartfelt expression can uplift the world.

Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering Randy’s genius for the first time, this episode is an inspiring journey — one that echoes long after the final note.

IMPORTANT: IT IS VERY IMPORTANT TO STATE A HUMAN REALITY – that most of the people in the world live life in PEACE, unfortunately those that use countries, religion, race, color, creed, sex, or anything else for WAR/VIOLENCE make it hard for humanity. Let’s try our best not to focus on them, they are mentally ill and let’s appreciate the positive and caring people in our lovely world. Also, important to remember that most news media needs to share the bad in the world to protect us, it’s their investigative mission in many cases, but once again, what the media shares is not usually the big picture… happily most houses don’t burn down, planes arrive on time, people get to work on the subway, and most people stop if they hit another car and so on…. If you want to watch www.goodnewsplanet.TV, or www.youtube.com/goodnewsbroadcast, or www.pausetheworldforpeace.org, it’s available, for Life Affirming, Thought Provoking, Up-beat, not Beat up news, entertainment, and events since July 4, 1998, for over 25 years, with over 6,500+ shows and growing. Over 30% of the shows, are health and wellness.

Here once again, is a NASA PHOTO, THE BLUE MARBLE, FROM THE MOON OF MOTHER EARTH….NO BORDERS, BOUNDARIES, COUNTRIES, COLORS…WE ARE ALL IN THIS TOGETHER, OM.

Take a moment to listen to our dear friend David Ippolito, www.thatguitarman.com sing for Peace and for us to imagine life as ONE: https://youtu.be/_FrCKM_SN2c?si=raR3HRumFKJ5wuLq

So today, let’s think about how we can help those in the world who are mentally ill to see life differently, enough for them to live in Peace, and for each one of us to live our lives in Peace, as that is where it all begins… and let’s do it NOW… NOW spelled backward is WON, we WIN when we live in the NOW.

Lastly or firstly, here are the infamous words to the song IMAGINE,

LET’S LIVE AND PROMOTE IT and PRAY THAT 

“MAY PEACE PREVAIL ON EARTH”

Imagine there’s no heaven

It’s easy if you try

No hell below us

Above us, only sky

Imagine all the people

Livin’ for today

Imagine there’s no countries

It isn’t hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion, too

Imagine all the people

Livin’ life in peace

You may say I’m a dreamer

But I’m not the only one

I hope someday you’ll join us

And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions

I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man

Imagine all the people

Sharing all the world

You may say I’m a dreamer

But I’m not the only one

I hope someday you’ll join us

And the world will live as one

Stay Well and do good for others… as that is what life is about, taking care of yourself applies.  Keep HOPE IN YOUR HEART AND ACTIONS…THAT THE STRESSES THAT WE ARE LIVING WITH WILL SUBSIDE, PRAY AND LOVE.

What is the Hardest Thing to Break?
Surprisingly the answer is HABIT
If you Break the H,
You still have ‘A BIT’,
If you Break the ‘A’,
You still have BIT,
If you Break the ‘B”,
You still have ‘IT’,
Even after you break the ‘T’ in IT,
There is still the ‘I’,
And that ‘I’ is the Root cause of all problems.
