"Few interviewers recognize what Doctor Val does so well, how to weave the personal motivations of our Afghanistan odyssey, why did we do it, into the who, where and what. Without missing a beat, Doctor Val got right to the underlying paradigm of our understanding with her sharp and probing questions. It was a pleasure to encounter a host willing to explore these deeper motivations. Kudos for Dr.Valerie Anne Kirkgaard, a thoroughly engaging host!" ~ Paul Fitzgerald & Liz Gould, a husband and wife team, who are Afghanistan experts began working together in 1979 co-producing a documentary for Paul's television show, Watchworks.

"Being on the radio with Val Kirkgaard is like waking up in an America that is exciting, fair, honorable and makes actual sense. She is a great interviewer and it's a pleasure and an honor to talk about the fate of the universe with her." ~Harvey Wasserman, Senior advisor to Green Peace, Journalist and Author of SolarTopia(SolarTopia.org)
Val Kirkgaard has a way of pulling people out of themselves. There are those who presume to have this gift, but who are ambitious and self-promoting to the point where their "contributors" pull back into their own shells and say "never again". Val, on the other hand, really celebrates the lives that her guests are living, and encourages them to share their best with a world that needs 'em. My visit with her on Waking UpInAmerica taught me half-a-dozen lessons in less than an hour about how much I could do, and enjoy, with my own life...and I'm pursuing those lessons. Hurray Val! ~Stephanie Edwards, Long running co-host of the Tournament of Roses
Val evokes the possible human in each of her guests. One comes alive and available to their deepest knowing in the show.~Jean Houston, Scholar, philosopher and researcher in human capacities. (www.JeanHouston.org)

All you animal lovers... The Animal Rescue Site is having trouble getting enough people to click on their website daily to meet their quota of getting free food donated every day to abused and neglected animals.
It takes less than a minute (How about 20 seconds) to go to their site and click on the purple box 'fund food for animals' for free. This doesn't cost you a thing. Their corporate sponsors/advertisers use the number of daily visits to donate food to abandoned/neglected animals in exchange for advertising.
Here's the web site: www.theanimalrescuesite.com
