Eli Beer is a pioneer, social entrepreneur, President and Founder of United Hatzalah of Israel. In thirty years, the organization has grown to more than 6,500 volunteers who unite together to provide immediate, life-saving care to anyone in need - regardless of race or religion. This community EMS force network treats over 730,000 incidents per year, in Israel, as they wait for ambulances and medical attention. Eli’s vision is to bring this life-saving model across the world. In 2015, Beer expanded internationally with the establishment of branches in South America and other countries, including “United Rescue” in Jersey City, USA, where the response time was reduced to just two minutes and thirty-five seconds.

Ask Mr. Biggs is an advice podcast that has been repurposing actual talk radio phone calls (off and on) since 2006. Mr. Biggs dishes out radio advice to the citizens of the Greater Tri-County area. All phone calls were real talk-radio callers - just edited and tweaked to make them a little more... odd. Calls are borrowed from publically available broadcast talk radio shows, then edited and placed into new - and sometimes amusing - context. For those of you who have not yet had the pleasure of meeting him, Mr. Biggs is a local businessman, entrepreneur, and man-about-town. To say the least, he is a Tri-County fixture. If you happen to attend a local function such as the Semi-Annual Bicycle Safety Rodeo, the Downtown Cilantro Festival, or the Summer Car Hop and Hot Sauce-tacular, most likely Mr. Biggs is close at hand. You can’t miss his hearty laugh, his hip and stylish tracksuits, or his trademark horn-rimmed glasses. As a community service to the public, Mr. Biggs hosts a local radio talk show during which he happily dispenses straight-forward, no-nonsense advice on a variety of everyday problems. Listeners call or e-mail Mr. Biggs’ program with questions about anything and everything: electronics, cooking, etiquette, personal hygiene, automotive repair, affairs of the heart, etc. No topic is off limits. If it puzzles or perplexes, confuses or confounds, Mr. Biggs can figure it out. So don’t delay, download today. And enjoy the wonderful wit and wisdom of Mr. Biggs.

In place of a fresh show, here's an episode of Ask Mr. Biggs LIVE, streamed to an internet audience of literally dozens of people back in July. Most of you podcast feed people probably haven't heard it, so it's new to you. Thank you for your patience. Warmest regards, -Mr. Biggs…
