    THE JOURNEY, SHAREABLE MOMENTS AND 199GUYLIFESTYLE PLATFORM for Neal Bendesky who lost over 199 Pounds, Survived Sudden Cardiac Death and recently Beat Cancer!


    My name is Neal Bendesky and I am 199GUY. This is my story.


    I’ve written this book to tell every one of you that reads this message that it is NEVER2LATE to accomplish your wildest dreams. My dream was to live again. After all, I had one foot in the grave.


    Listen to this number. I said listen to this, 450 pounds. One step from the grave. I was not living. I was a walking dead man. In 2014, I started a wellness journey and lost over 199 pounds and reimagined my life helping me become the CEO of my life, my community, my legacy and now, my family. Included in this quick but valuable read, my fourteen chapters will recount and share the many steps taken from a person who also survived sudden cardiac death and went from the couch to completing 17 half marathons. I will also introduce you to my unique LIFESTYLE platform so that you too can be the CEO of your life. Take that first step and read the book. I look forward to hearing about your own journey. Remember, it’s NEVER2LATE.


    Quote for Bob Beaudine:

    "We all look to discover solutions to live a longer and more satisfying life. NEVER2LATE, is a real-life fable of a personal transformation journey by my dear friend Neal Bendesky and his lessons learned. It’s a step-by-step account of what worked and can be sustained if you stay on the journey."

    Bob Beaudine, world renowned motivational speaker and author of two Global best-selling books, THE POWER OF WHO and 2CHAIRS

  • From The Playground To The White House #29 w/ Dereck Whittenburg
    Oct 17 2024

    In this episode "The Publisher" Mr. Kelly Cole sits down with Best Selling Author and former NC State Legend Dereck Whittenburg to discuss his new best selling book The Shot Heard Around The World: How I Went From The Playground To The White House.


    Dereck Whittenburg’s journey of wanting to become a basketball player begins while watching a nationally televised game where he sees his cousin and future NBA Hall of Famer, David Thompson, winning the 1974 National Championship at NC State. From that moment, Whittenburg decided that he wanted to follow in the footsteps of his cousin and dreamed of not just becoming a Wolfpack, but to also being a part of a National Championship team himself.

    Whittenburg’s “pass” to win the 1983 National Championship game with just seconds left on the clock to defeat the mighty Houston Cougars, who were led by future Hall of Famers Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler, will forever be remembered as one of the most memorable plays in sports history. Although Whittenburg understands that he also wants people to know that he has accomplished many great things since that memorable moment. After being cut by the Phoenix Suns and playing just one season overseas in France, Whittenburg quickly realized that his dreams of becoming a basketball player in the NBA was no longer a part of the plan.


    Aside from Whittenburg wanting to share his basketball journey, he also wanted to use his story as a reminder that life isn’t over when things don’t go according to plan. Throughout his story, he expresses the importance of being a great listener, respecting your parents, and also the importance of having great friendships. Although many people will remember Whittenburg that memorable moment in the 1983 Championship game, he still continues to empower others to fulfill their dreams. He wants to encourage the youth to know and understand who you are and where you came from.

  • Erased From History #28 w/ Derrick Burroughs
    Oct 3 2024

    In this episode "The Publisher" Mr. Kelly Cole sits down with Best Selling Author and former NFL cornerback Derrick Burroughs to discuss his new best selling book Erased From History.


    The story of Derrick Burroughs, former NFL 1st round draft pick for the Buffalo Bills, whose career was cut short due to a paralyzing neck injury vs the Houston Oilers in 1989. However, it is not just his career that was cut short; he takes you through his life from childhood to the present, where seemingly most of the things he deemed important in his life, whether athletically, academically, family, personal or life accomplishments all seem to have been erased or forgotten. To mask his pain and trust issues, he sought solace in promiscuity but found redemption by making peace with his past and inspiring others to learn and return, revitalize and nurture family, friends, and relationships.
