The Mind of the Matter

THURSDAYS AT 9 AM EST, 6 AM PACIFIC
VOICE AMERICA VARIETY CHANNEL


About the Show

The Mind of the Matter  is everyone’s show because we are all interested in human behavior, thoughts and emotions – why we do the things we do and whether our actions are harmful, helpful or simply mysterious. People are fascinated by the inner workings of the mind and body: the way we create, the reasons we destroy, what motivates behavior for our greatest accomplishments or darkest hours. Not only is the show about the questions of “how” and “why,” but also about the question of “what now?” What must we do now to get the results we desire? How do we effectively change our emotions, thoughts and behaviors to achieve our goals and stay emotionally connected? Whether in sports, religion, business, science, art, literature or world events – come explore with us as we seek to understand…the mind of the matter. Tune in every Thursday at 9 AM Eastern Time, 6 AM Pacific on the VoiceAmerica Variety Channel.

Sponsors and Listener Support Needed!

The real mission of The Mind of the Matter is about education. Knowledge truly is power and we want to provide our listeners with high-quality information each week to help bring clarity to important issues and to provide useful information so that listeners will know what to do next as we interview experts or review current research for each episode. To help the show continue indefinitely, we need sponsors and listener support. Sponsors are given space on the website for banner advertisements, commercial time during the show, live mentions by Dr. Hickman and possible guest appearance. Please email us for more information about sponsorship opportunities at: MindoftheMatter@gmail.com.

The show is also supported by our listeners through donation and product sales. Please keep an eye on our Products Page as products will be added soon. Donations are also greatly appreciated and don’t hesitate to donate a small amount, even if it is only $5.00. Of course, larger donations are helpful, but every donation matters, whether large or small! Thank you so much for your generosity and support. We so appreciate every one of you!
