Stories We Weren’t Taught: Jane Rubin on Jewish Resilience, War, and Remembering What Matters Jul 18, 2025

Show notes

In this gripping and heartfelt episode, award-winning author Jane Rubin joins I Am Refocused Radio to spotlight a forgotten chapter of Jewish-American history through her new novel Over There—the final installment in her acclaimed Gilded City trilogy. Set during World War I, Over There follows a family of Jewish doctors and nurses navigating the horrors of trench warfare, while wrestling with identity, displacement, rising antisemitism, and the pursuit of belonging in a country they were still learning to call home. Rubin’s storytelling brings history to life, giving voice to the 250,000+ Jewish Americans who answered the call to serve in 1917—whose courage and sacrifice have long gone overlooked. In this interview, Jane and host Shemaiah Reed dive into:

The real stories behind Jewish-American service in WWI
What today’s world can learn from Jewish resilience and patriotism
The role of Jewish women in early medicine and social activism
How fiction becomes a powerful tool for historical healing
Jane’s personal journey as a two-time cancer survivor and how it fuels her mission to keep memory alive

This isn’t just about history—it’s about identity, legacy, and what it means to carry the light forward when the world goes dark. If you love powerful stories rooted in truth, grit, and purpose—you don’t want to miss this.

Changing people's perception of God with David Gregory Jul 18, 2025

Show notes

What if Jesus walked into your city—right now, in 2025? In this bold and unfiltered episode, New York Times bestselling author David Gregory sits down with Shemaiah Reed to unpack his groundbreaking new novel One of Us, which imagines the Gospels unfolding in modern-day America. Known for his breakout hit Dinner with a Perfect Stranger and a fearless approach to Christian fiction, David takes us behind the scenes of his latest work—a book he says might be the most consequential story he’s ever written. Together, they dive deep into:

Why fiction hits the heart in ways sermons can’t
How today’s church might miss Jesus completely if He showed up
The hidden struggles of faith, failure, and performance-based Christianity
What the gospel really means to a generation tired of religion but hungry for truth
And why it’s time to rethink how we talk about God, grace, and identity

This isn’t your typical church chat. This is raw. Real. And deeply necessary. Whether you’re a believer, a skeptic, or somewhere in between—this conversation will challenge what you think you know about Jesus and inspire you to see Him in a whole new light.

Jamie Neumann, star of the new film Thirsty, available now On Demand Jun 27, 2025

Show notes

About Jamie Neumann
Jamie Neumann is a force on screen, known for disappearing into roles that live in the gray area. She broke out with her powerful performance as a sex worker-turned-activist in HBO’s The Deuce, and kept audiences on edge in Lovecraft Country, Jessica Jones, and Donald Glover’s Atlanta, where she played a foster parent whose well-meaning liberalism went dangerously off course. She’s worked across genres and with some of the most visionary creators in the game—David Simon, Jordan Peele, Donald Glover, and more—always bringing raw intensity and soul to her characters. With recent credits including Twisted Metal, 61st Street, NOS4A2, and American Rust, Jamie continues to prove she’s not just in the scene—she is the scene.
In this episode of I Am Refocused Radio, Jamie Neumann joins us to break down her latest role in THIRSTY and what it really takes to portray a woman balancing purpose, power, and personal sacrifice. We talk about the cost of ambition, the emotional layers of playing Audrey Allen, and how Jamie chooses roles that shake the audience out of comfort and into truth. If you’re into storytelling that hits hard, characters that leave a mark, and conversations that go deeper than the script—this one’s for you.
ABOUT THIRSTY, AVAILABLE ON DEMAND
THIRSTY follows the upstart campaign of an audacious attorney Audrey Allen (Jamie Neumann) as she strives to unseat the incumbent mayor of Oakland. Driven by her rough upbringing and altruistic desires, Audrey is willing to endure the relentless demands of campaign life. This is a woman who fights to win. Audrey's criticism of the popular incumbent mayor Maya King (Brandee Evans) motivates a veteran of the political game Anne Dixon (Kyra Sedgwick) to bolster her struggling campaign. Audrey's skeptical husband Tae Kim (Sung Kang) views Anne's behavior as machiavellian but fails to convince his wife to move more cautiously. Audrey is blinded by ambition and subsequently thrust into the limelight with her family in tow.
Anne's go-to political operative Valentina Ramos (Briana Venskus-Vazquez) isn't Audrey's fan but reluctantly becomes her campaign manager anyway. They clash over tactical issues and Audrey's charismatic field manager Derek Williams (Tyler Lepley) often steps in as referee. As the campaign gains momentum, T.K. becomes increasingly alienated and the tensions in their marriage escalate. Audrey's daughter Eunbi also feels the sting of her mother's absence. At Anne's behest, Audrey keeps her troubled sister Sonia (Thora Birch) at arm's length but this strategy soon becomes untenable. As election day approaches, Audrey is guilt-ridden for not being a more involved mother, sister and wife but nevertheless remains consumed by election fever. Soon she is confronted with impossible decisions that put both her career and her family on the line. Audrey must reconcile the seduction of the political game with her own moral compass or risk losing it all.
