• 1:25
  Speaker 2: people got nuts because they just don't know, you know,
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: how to find the peace within themselves, because they're not
• 1:32
  Speaker 2: from that generation where we really came out of war.
• 1:37
  Speaker 2: We were in war, our boys were killed, a boy
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: who became drug addicts, heroin addicts, and we had to
• 1:45
  Speaker 2: fight to make sure that it wasn't gonna completely take
• 1:50
  Speaker 2: over our cities. And it did, and sadly enough it did.
• 1:55
  Speaker 2: Sure that's why Woodstock was so important. And with five
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: hundred thousand young, beautiful teenagers in search of the truth
• 2:08
  Speaker 2: and the love that was missing in this world.
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: Well, you know, we spoke. We're meeting mutually through my
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: good friend Zen, who's been a friend of mine for
• 2:18
  Speaker 1: probably twenty years. And I might have mentioned I did
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: the twentieth anniversary of Woodstock with a nice Brooklyn boy
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: named Richie Havens in Times Square. I had actually the
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: Great Lawn and unfortunately at that and I had PBS
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: public because I was a Channel thirteen guy, Oh wow, executive,
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: but I couldn't raise the seven hundred thousand now of
• 2:41
  Speaker 1: course seven million. But and I still want to do it.
• 2:44
  Speaker 1: I still want to take over the Great Lawn, which
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: is on my corner here in New York Debbie, tell
• 2:49
  Speaker 1: us about you, what are you up to?
• 2:52
  Speaker 3: I am have co authored Sheena's book and story called
• 2:58
  Speaker 3: Karmaic Collision, and we have a film short that we've
• 3:04
  Speaker 3: already produced. Our editor and our directors and.
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: Ourselves have produced and.
• 3:10
  Speaker 3: This tells this tale of Sheena's life from Brooklyn to Woodstock,
• 3:17
  Speaker 3: to India to Jamaica. Lots of adventures and some international
• 3:23
  Speaker 3: famous names come through. Richie Hans is one in fact,
• 3:29
  Speaker 3: Dylan Bob Dylan Bob Marley.
• 3:32
  Speaker 2: And the Adventures of Sheena.
• 3:34
  Speaker 3: So we had a great time writing that as a
• 3:36
  Speaker 3: book and then working on drafting a script and.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Have gotten that started as well.
• 3:44
  Speaker 1: Well. I watched the Vimeo video, but let me ask you, Debbie,
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: what inspired you to do this? What inspired you to
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: work with her?
• 3:52
  Speaker 3: I liked her story and it's very much in keeping
• 3:56
  Speaker 3: with the third person.
• 3:57
  Speaker 2: That was the.
• 3:58
  Speaker 3: Trio that kicked turning it into it at least the
• 4:02
  Speaker 3: beginnings of film Houston, Cyprus, our film director who said,
• 4:08
  Speaker 3: we need more women heroes, we need more stories in
• 4:12
  Speaker 3: women's voices, and so I loved using my ability with
• 4:17
  Speaker 3: the keyboard and with technology to help Sena who had
• 4:21
  Speaker 3: her story, knew her story lived her story and has
• 4:24
  Speaker 3: a remarkable memory of events that took place in the
• 4:28
  Speaker 3: seventies as if it was last week. So it was
• 4:32
  Speaker 3: very easy for us to put to paper and come
• 4:36
  Speaker 3: to live. These stories were still so fresh in her
• 4:39
  Speaker 3: head that then when I would meet people that were
• 4:42
  Speaker 3: in some of those stories, or we were able to
• 4:44
  Speaker 3: read oftentimes in Bob Dylan books and those sorts of things,
• 4:48
  Speaker 3: parts of her her facts are always matching everything.
• 4:54
  Speaker 2: It just blows my mind.
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Which keyboard was that? Was that a musical keyboard or
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: a computer keyboard?
• 5:00
  Speaker 3: Her keyboard to do the typing of the story, the
• 5:04
  Speaker 3: musical notes, I work with the keys, the letters, and
• 5:07
  Speaker 3: the numbers.
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: I just had a great six minutes. If that's the
• 5:11
  Speaker 1: video we're talking about watching that, yes, I'd be frank
• 5:15
  Speaker 1: with you. I got goose pimples in it and.
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: That.
• 5:20
  Speaker 1: And I'm a TV guy for fifty plus years and
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: they worked on my woh a lot of famous shows
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: and you knows you know, Sunny Share Cowber. I've done
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: three Sinatra specials. I made a lot of shows. Me
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: and a whole bunch of people make these shows. But
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: I've had some one hundred fifty network shows and then
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: we have seven thousand on good News, and so you know,
• 5:44
  Speaker 1: I saw, I saw, I feel now even when you speak,
• 5:48
  Speaker 1: I see in the video, which for me is I'm
• 5:52
  Speaker 1: a boobtube guy growing up. You have captured her because
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: I heard her speak with I have good buddies in
• 6:01
  Speaker 1: and I see you a little more because I know
• 6:03
  Speaker 1: Brooklyn inside out pretty much, because when I canceled Love
• 6:08
  Speaker 1: of Life, the soap opera drove car service, and I
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: married a girl from Avenue O on twenty third Street.
• 6:12
  Speaker 1: So that was my first wife, the mother and my daughter.
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: So I know a lot about Brooklyn fifty years going
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: down there. In any case, it's a certain kind of
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: a person that comes out of Brooklyn.
• 6:22
  Speaker 3: You know.
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: I'm a little terrytown boy. Ten thousand people. You know,
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: I'm like a little Nebi shure, you could say, you know,
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: but the Brooklyn people they got such moxie. I mean,
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: I did all in the family they got, but they
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: got It's a survival, but not a screw your neighbor survival.
• 6:39

• 10:19
  Speaker 3: their career was the Miami Pop Festival, which was the
• 10:23
  Speaker 3: largest festival up until Woodstock beat it by big numbers.
• 10:29
  Speaker 3: But and it was right before and it had a
• 10:31

  Speaker 2: the python, and they live with them in the new
• 11:07
  Speaker 2: breed of snakes that had been brought there by foreigners.
• 11:12
  Speaker 2: And they're wild and eating up all the lower constrictors,
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: bow pythons, python, and they're huge, they're massive, I mean they.

  Speaker 1: not the snake I mean, I'm not.

  Speaker 3: around with. That's one that we used to have in
• 11:51
  Speaker 3: a science class and that would roll over our legs

• 13:11
  Speaker 1: us and me by far. It's funny. I'll give you
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: another little, funny little story. I've just been I've had
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: a lot of good stuff happened. So I interview at
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: a from a women's event. I'm actually a women's liberty
• 13:26
  Speaker 1: I talked to the United Nations last week at two
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: women's events. And my mother was a woman that was
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: a working women, women the library, the Temple of Manuel.
• 13:36
  Speaker 1: She was a working woman. So I didn't know about
• 13:39
  Speaker 1: women's liberation. They are just women work. That was you know,
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: European stock. That was just what people did. At least,
• 13:47
  Speaker 1: you know, in my lifetime could see. But the governor,
• 13:53
  Speaker 1: pretty well known governor, Governor Kathy Hockley. Here it was
• 13:58
  Speaker 1: at a women's event. I couldn't interview then, but I
• 14:01
  Speaker 1: she said, I will come over to my office. And
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: I came over to her office and I started at an
• 14:07
  Speaker 1: interview and somehow I said. She asked me who I am,
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: and I mentioned Woodstock forever because Woodstock was, you know, instrumental.
• 14:15
  Speaker 2: In the history.
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: Of New York as well as the world. And she said, well, here,
• 14:22
  Speaker 1: she just came back from the Woodstock Museum in Bethel
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: and she gave me a pin. A museum when you
• 14:33
  Speaker 1: look up if you if you google Woodstock. All right,
• 14:37
  Speaker 1: And I've made a lot of stories about Woodstock, the
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Woodstock Museum, the Woodstock Radio, and so I've had and
• 14:44
  Speaker 1: then Jumla is in my movie. Who is Jimmy Hendrick
• 14:47
  Speaker 1: drummer and a and a great great citizen and a
• 14:50
  Speaker 1: very wise man and a do gooder. You know, you
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: could get probably a couple not hundred million hits on that.
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: So I think with your book coming out and you
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: were sharing another experience of Woodstock right now, you know,
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: August is Woodstock. Oh, I had Michael Lang's wife and
• 15:20
  Speaker 1: my last show in Peace Day, yeah she I had
• 15:26
  Speaker 1: her speak because we do a section in my show
• 15:28
  Speaker 1: called Woodstock Forever, Peace, Love and Hope. I'm doing that
• 15:31
  Speaker 1: in the Earth Day. So because I want the woodstock
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: forever is what we we call it, and I have
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: the wood for Forever. It's that mindset right exactly.
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: Well, I was kidnapped by Santana and brought to Woodstock
• 15:49
  Speaker 2: from the Fillmore East on LSD. Just came back from
• 15:55
  Speaker 2: Puerto Rico shipping my head off, and my friend said,
• 15:59
  Speaker 2: let's go to the Fillmore East. They got a hot
• 16:05
  Speaker 2: Latin band there that's from San Francisco. So I said, sure,
• 16:09
  Speaker 2: why not. We went over. We got there, got in,
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: and boy, the trip began. The bongos, the congos, the vibration.
• 16:21
  Speaker 2: It was just Michael Carabella's hair was blowing like black marshmallows,
• 16:27

  Speaker 2: He worked for Journey for a while, but anyway, she said, yeah,
• 17:00
  Speaker 2: this's wait till they come out. I said, of course.
• 17:03
  Speaker 2: So they didn't come out through the back. They came

• 17:09
  Speaker 2: come out, I see Michael Caramello with his and he
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: had gorgeous long fringes, and the fringes were blowing my mind.

  Speaker 2: And then my friend went crazy for Greg Rohodi, and
• 17:23
  Speaker 2: the two of them walked out of the little tepito
