Love is The Tender Trap

Cafe Esoterica Radio Presents a Remembrance of Art Swiden

It has been a long time since I graced this blog with my words about Art and I. I have been busy but he is never a moment out of my mind and heart. I will be coming back and tidying it up where needed soon. Looks like Vodpod is no more so some of the videos needs replaced. I will see to that asap!

I am honoring Art Swiden, on the 14th year of the anniversary of his passing today, tonight on my radioshow, called, Cafe Esoterica Radio on Blog Talk Radio.com which will air Thursday, August 23rd, 2018 for the first hour of my show. I will be sharing Art's journey, his amazing life, from losing both parents from the time he was age 7 to putting himself in the army at the time of World War 2, at age 14, lieing about his age just to get away from the strict grandparents and the foster homes he was put in. He was a character, a real person, tender and loving, brash and violent sometimes, and such an enigma but he was always ART!
Please tune in from 7-9:00pm UK, 2-4:00pm EST & 11am-1:00pm PST & worldwide and call in on (516) 387-1809 and share your memories of Art, if you knew him, plenty of people did! His boxing career can be found here: http://www.boxrec.com/en/boxer/20069
 

This is actual archive footage of Art in Derby, England working out before his big fight in Leicester, England with Joey Armstong at Granby Halls, and I am so thrilled to be able to find live footage of him, I looked long and hard to find this! Date: Nov. 22, 1958, the fight was Nov 24th 1958. 

I am proud to say I made sure his name and his boxing history was put in there and that picture you see of him in there, I sent them! I have done many things for Art since this blog was started so many years ago. I put a plaque on his grave, which he was left unattended for 3 years! I also marked a brick in Shadyside where we both worked together and he managed the Encore Jazz Bar and Restaurant for over 20 years which looks like this and it says, "ART SWIDEN, CHAMP 4 EVER" and he is!

Art was always into Sinatra so my show will have some key Sinatra songs, also what happened after Art died and how he came back to me from the spirit world! It is too amazing to not tune in and listen to and here is the link: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/cafeesotericaradio/2018/08/23/cafe-esoterica-radio-with-hostess-shawn-m-cohen-guest-jimmy-mack-healing-show  
It is titled with Jimmy Mack because the fabulous energy healer Jimmy Mack will be my guest on the 2nd hour, so call in and get a healing too from Jimmy on (001) (516) 387-1809. I will also be doing a live broadcast of this show on my Cafe Esoterica Radio You Tube Channel so if you want to see me broadcast this show with pictures of Art then please tune in here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gT_dDoBY8El 

I hope you tune in, add comments to this thread of my blog and let's remember Art who is still around, spirit is eternal and hears us, sees us like all people here or in Heaven. 
Many blessings to all,
