It's a Story for the Ages... Boy does well. Boy teeters on midlife crisis. Boy moves to Florida, becomes a newspaper columnist and enlists the help of Pat Benatar & Neil Giraldo, Brian Boitano, James Carville, Barbara Corcoran, Jack Hanna, Heloise, Magic Johnson, Shirley Jones, Sue Monk Kidd, Kathy Griffin, Hoda Kotb, Rob Marciano, Tyler Mathisen, Mary Matalin, Colin Mochrie, Suze Orman, Dr. David Perlmutter, Willard Scott, Vanessa Williams and almost 100 more to show him how to get his mojo back.

In his battle against time, short attention spans and emotionally bereft modern technology, Jones wages an editorial war against pessimism by waving his journalistic flag in the promotion of creative thinking, positive communication, innovation, authenticity, respect and LAUGHTER. Now, with the help of his treasured gallery of informants-starting with the influencers from his days as a showy-yet-sensitive, bunny-fearing Mid-Missouri youngster to his exploration of modern-day success-family man, entrepreneur and humorist Randall Kenneth Jones hopes to SHOW YOU what all of these extraordinary people so graciously SHOWED HIM. Show Me showcases how to learn from your past, embrace your present, grow personally and professionally, laugh at yourself and banish mediocrity-by listening, learning and respecting the never-ending balance between ambition and tradition.
