Product Description

When a local psychic reduces Chicago's popular, down-to-earth sportscaster Tim Weigel to tears, his daughter Jenniffer questions her own spiritual beliefs. "Stay Tuned" is Jenniffer's story of a father and daughter's journey from materialistic journalists to spiritually attuned spiritual beings--a journey that continues even after his death.

During his illness, while Tim turns to alternative treatments like chi gong and reiki sessions, Jenniffer reads Neale Donald Walsch, starts a spiritual diet plan and uses the law of attraction to find free parking spaces. The book takes you on a witty, irreverent trip through popular spiritual beliefs and insights of masters and celebrities, including don Miguel Ruiz, James Van Praagh and Russell Crowe, as this intelligent, award-winning broadcaster transforms from "cynical daughter" to "spiritual woman."

5.0 out of 5 stars Stay Tuned, October 24, 2007

By	N. McKenna - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Loved this book. Opened my eyes to the medium world and made me a believer that perhaps there is something beyond our stay on Earth. Her dialogues with experts in the medium field made me hunt down some of their works and I am eager to attend conferences addressing these issues. I loved her visits to the town Lily Dale in upper New York founded by spiritualists. Most of all i loved the style of her writing and her journey to find meaning in her life. For all of us that have lost someone there is a huge comfort factor to this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Honest. Poignant. Hope-filled., October 23, 2007

By	Seeker (Lily Dale, NY USA) - See all my reviews

I thought this was going to be the chronicle of a daughter's search for confirmation that there is something after this life. I was wrong. This is so much more. It is one of the most profound, honest, heart-wrenching love stories I've ever read. Sometimes it's laugh-out-loud funny. The next moment it's so poignant my heart weeps. All in all, it's filled with the wide range of emotions that accompanies the lost and found of a beloved father. I know, I've been there.

5.0 out of 5 stars Completely Captivating, November 8, 2007

By	Barrel of Monkeez (Los Angeles) - See all my reviews

I read Ms. Weigel's touching and heart-felt personal tale in a single sitting. She deftly (and often humorously) tackles universal subjects such as career crises, spiritual ambiguity and the inexplicable grief of losing a beloved parent.
