The Neil Haley Show
Neil and co-host Greg Hanna opened the Celebrity Interviews Live from the Grotto simulcast with Micky Dolenz of The Monkees and his daughter Amy Dolenz, talking about their new children's book Lalu Toot Toot, the second installment of Micky's Anthromythology series (following 2006's Gakky Two Feet). Micky, a lifelong science and anthropology geek inspired by the Lucy skeleton, coined the term "anthromythology" to fictionalize seminal moments in human history. Lalu Toot Toot tells the story of the first musical instrument, a Neanderthal-era bone flute, with a little boy who mimics his bird friend Fleet. Amy, who studied children's picture books and illustration at Emily Carr after years of acting, brought the story to life with watercolor illustrations as a school project that grew into a real book. She also recalled her father's Harold and Agatha stories he made up on the fly during her summer visits to England. Micky marked 60 years this week since the original Monkees TV pilot. They're aiming to do school readings next year. Visit MickyDolenz.com. Greg then joined Neil for the previously-aired Flight to London conversation with Jimmy McGorman (Goo Goo Dolls) and Robb Vallier, the veteran writer-producers (Dave Stewart, Weezer, Sabrina Carpenter) stepping out as their own act after years writing for others. They built their debut album Instructions for Losing Control on rigid creative guardrails inspired by Tears for Fears, Peter Gabriel, and Scritti Politti, calling the sound "newstalgia." The album dropped November 21 with a release party November 22 in Westlake Village; first single "No One's Forgiven" is out now at FlightToLondonMusic.com. Neil then welcomed Chad Priest, Vice President of Humanitarian Services at the American Red Cross, to mark Giving Tuesday and the holiday season. Chad shared that the Red Cross distributed roughly $124 million in financial assistance to families in 2025, with nearly 90 percent of its workforce made up of volunteers. Home fires are by far the most common disaster (one every eight minutes nationally, with a 20 percent spike during the holidays), responded to in red vests by neighbors offering hugs, blankets, financial help, food, and clothing. Chad also reminded listeners the Red Cross connects military families overseas and supplies life-saving blood transfusions. Donate or schedule blood at RedCross.org, and consider gifts in someone's honor or memory. Neil then welcomed actress and mom Tori Spelling and board-certified dermatologist Dr. Adam Friedman to discuss eczema awareness through the Free To Be Me campaign with Arcutis. Tori shared how her own eczema emerged in adulthood during the stress of her first divorce, forcing production shutdowns and wardrobe changes, and how her 17-year-old daughter Stella has lived with eczema since childhood (often bullied at school over visible patches). After years of failed over-the-counter products, oatmeal baths, and concerns over steroid creams, their dermatologist recommended Zoryve (roflumilast 0.15% cream), a steroid-free, once-daily, non-greasy treatment that worked for both. Dr. Friedman explained eczema is a clinical diagnosis (no blood test or biopsy), often runs alongside asthma and seasonal allergies, and stressed steroid phobia is a real treatment barrier. Side effects of Zoryve can include headache, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, and application-site pain. Tori is also hosting her podcast Miss Spelling and 9021-OMG with Jennie Garth. Visit Zoryve.com. Neil closed with the Ultimate Men's Movement simulcast featuring Dr. Jack Rocco, marking Men's Health Awareness Month. Dr. Jack addressed the cultural problem of men neglecting their own health (often more attentive to their lawnmower than their body), the way men drop out of the gym in their 20s and 30s as families and careers take over, and why a strong preventive approach with men's healthcare beats the runaway cost of treating disease later.
