S3: EP18 Best of WDM Part 1

This September, we're bringing you a special series of highlight reels, featuring some of our most amazing and inspiring guests. This episode is a compilation of our best moments with Dean Gladden, the managing director of Houston's iconic Alley Theatre; Anthony Robles, a National Champion and unstoppable force in wrestling; and the honorable Judge Eric Andell.

Dean Gladden | The Heart of The Alley TheatreDean Gladden shares the incredible story of the Alley Theatre's resilience after being devastated by Hurricane Harvey, restoring the iconic theatre in time for "A Christmas Carol," in addition to giving us a glimpse of a rare, behind-the-scenes craftsmanship of the theater, from the custom-made costumes and wigs to the meticulously built sets and props.

Anthony Robles | Unstoppable SpiritAnthony Robles, a wrestler born without his right leg, shares his journey from a young boy with a "disability" to a high school and college national champion. Anthony discusses the emotional journey of turning his life story into the movie "Unstoppable" and offers a message of inspiration for anyone facing adversity.

Judge Eric Andell | The People's JudgeJudge Eric Andell takes us on a captivating ride through his life and career, and his journey into the judicial system, which led him to an appointment with President Bush in Washington, D.C. Judge Andell reflects on the profound impact of the 9/11 attacks on him and the teachers who became heroes and why he feels he has come "home," finding fulfillment in the work he's most passionate about.
