About this listen

S.T.R.O.L.L. is simple. Solving The Rebus of Living Life. The idea is to bring people on from all walks of life to talk about life from their perspective. A rebus is a puzzle. Words, pictures and symbols that all spell out something. I want to hear people's stories and tap into the triumphs and setbacks that shaped each individual to be where they are now. I'll learn something. You'll learn something. We are pieces of the puzzle. We all matter when it comes to the big picture. Let's take this journey together. Let's get our S.T.R.O.L.L. on. New episodes every Tuesday.Kevin Thomas Social Sciences

  • S.T.R.O.L.L. - S01E15 - Road Trip #4
    Jun 3 2025

    In this fourth edition of my Road Trip series, we S.T.R.O.L.L. to Oxfordshire, England to meet a set of twins who recently celebrated their 100th birthday.

    Meanwhile, in Lancashire, a little girl wanted to make sure her local police ok as they attended to an emergency. A set of 6-year-old twins in Pittsburgh are more than happy to give everyone "sunshine in a cup". Find out how the crew of a Carnival Cruise ship, which left Sydney days earlier, helped two couples and their three dogs escape peril on the high seas.

    In Montreal, a woman is trying to find out who spent 20 minutes giving CPR to their father, saving his life after collapsing in a park. Hear the inspiring story of a Tennessee woman who had the blessing of bringing five kids into this world and beat the odds after her path to success delayed by a medical condition.

    I also bring you an amazing story of a 14 year old English teen who saved a man's life when he became injured and disoriented in the surf, a story of generosity between a dental office and a mailman in North Carolina, and a woman who grew up knowing she was adopted and took a 44 year journey to connect with the sisters she didn't know she had.

  • S.T.R.O.L.L. - S01E14 - DC The Brain Supreme (DC Glenn, Tag Team)
    May 27 2025

    Sprinkles!

    This episode of S.T.R.O.L.L. will stir up nostalgic feelings, especially for kids of the 90's. Today, I talk to one half of the influential and memorable hip-hop/rap duo Tag Team, the multi-talented DC The Brain Supreme (DC Glenn). The Denver native met Steve Rolln (Steve Gibson) back in the early 80s in high school.

    Little did he know, it would start a life journey that would lead him to not only help create to one of the greatest jock jams and party jams of all time (Whoomp! There It Is), but - as you will hear in this interview - would also lead him down multiple paths of hustle and hunger that is keeping him and the Tag Team story alive today.

    You will be inspired by DC's words and by his tenacity to keep learning and keep growing in his journey. Listen in and find out about DC's piece of the puzzle.
