Transcript:  Welcome to The Art of Living Big, where we explore how to live intentionally and with more joy. I’m Betsy Pake, your host, master, coach, and creator of the Navigate Method. Here to help you listen in to your true desires, elevate your standards, and live life to the fullest. Now, let’s go live big. Hi, everybody. Welcome to the show today. I’m excited to be here. I’m also recording it on a Tuesday, and I know that probably means nothing to you, but it does mean something to Joy, who edits these podcasts. So I’m quite pleased with myself. I’m celebrating. That’s, like, the big win. I’m on it, you guys. I am on it. We missed a couple weeks because of Belize and just, like, all the things happening around that, and so I feel really good about being back on track and back with you. All right. So today, I’ve been thinking about this. There’s so many things. I wanna say, I, I feel like we need to have a… Here’s what I really want. I want, like, a, a private podcast where you guys could come in, where I know who’s listening, and I can tell you all kinds of stories. Like, I have so many stories from the last six weeks, probably, crazy and amazing, and, the magical universe continues to unfold in wonderful ways that delight me. And so and so, I, because- I don’t know who listens, do you know what I mean, ’cause we’re not just in a room together. When… This is why we need to have retreats. This is why I do the retreats. So today, I have had something I’ve wanted to talk about, and I’m trying to figure out, like, how can I talk about this? And so I’m gonna say something that might feel… Like, you might be like, “Ugh.” You, you might turn this off, but hang with me, if you would. And if you’re new here, I promise I’ll make it about you at the end, okay? So everything has always worked out for me. I know. I know that some of you made a face. It’s okay. I don’t mean that everything went the way that I wanted it to, because it didn’t, and I have had years that I would, leave notes sometime in my journal that say, like, “Time travelers, do not return to this day,” you know? I, I, I have had years that I wouldn’t sign up for a second time. You know, if you’ve been here for a while, you know the story about me going to school one day, in high school, and my mom dying in a car accident while I was gone. You know, so, it’s not that things went the way that I wanted. Right? It’s not that everything was magical and perfect. You know, that whole deal with my mother, like that did not w- that did not work out, okay? And I’m not gonna sit here and tell you that it did or that there’s some, like amazing silver lining. There are things that have spawned from that that I wouldn’t have had, experiences I wouldn’t have had because that happened. But it sucked, and I’ve had lots of other things that have sucked and I have had decades that sucked in a miserable marriage. And here I am, and my life is good, and I like who I am, and all of those things can be true at the same time, and it took me a really long time to understand that they could be. And, you know, if you’ve been here for a while, I’ve done episodes in the past. You know, a few years ago, I think I did several episodes on magic, and not the kind of magic like, you know, where you’re cooking toadstools or whatever. But the kind of magic where you’re shifting your perspective, the kind of magic that we talk about in A Course In Miracles, right? That a, a miracle is a shift in perspective. But I wanna tell you about a word. Abracadabra. Abracadabra is the thing that you say before the thing appears, right? That’s, that’s what it f- is for. That’s what people do first, right? The, the rabbit isn’t in the hat yet. There’s nothing up the sleeve. The magician has no evidence at that point, and he says it anyway. He says, “Abracadabra,” out loud in front of everybody. And that’s actually the whole trick. It’s not the rabbit. It’s saying it first. And you probably used to be like that, right? You did. There is a version of you who wanted something and just said it before you had any reason to believe that it was coming the word itself, abracadabra, and you know I love w- you know I love the words. If you’ve been in the Navigate method, you know. People will say a word, and I’ll be like, “Let’s get the dictionary.” Like, what does it actually mean, right? But abracadabra stems from a meaning of I create as I speak. And now somewhere along the way, you stopped saying the thing that you wanted. Maybe you stopped saying it first. Maybe you’ve just stopped. And now you wait. Like, you want something, and you keep it inside until you can see how it could possibly work. You wanna be able to explain it. You want a plan attached to it before you’ll say it out loud. We create as we speak, and our words have vibration. So you want everything figured out before you’ll say it out loud or to another person. And it probably feels responsible. It does, right? But what you’re actually doing is waiting for the rabbit before you say the word, and it’s backwards. It’s actually not how any of it works I think we do this because there is an element in us that is, that is tired. We are tired, and we don’t wanna be disappointed. And I hear people say, “I don’t wanna get my hopes up all the time.” Do you guys remember many years ago when I was looking for a house, and I wanted that mid-century modern house? I still get in bed and think about that , think about that house. I think I offered, like, $100,000 more than asking, and I didn’t get it. Somebody else got it, and I was so disappointed. I see the benefit of it now that I didn’t get that. I’m glad. And I remember at the time knowing I really wanted it, like, knowing I was leaning in, knowing I was letting myself sort of get ahead of myself, and also knowing that I could handle the disappointment, that it felt so fun to be excited about it. It felt so fun to dream about it. Now, without a doubt, I know that my perfect mid-century modern home is is coming. At some point, I don’t know when, I don’t have to know, but I know it’s coming because I lingered in that for so long. I lingered in it without the fear, and when I didn’t get it, it w- it was crushing. My little heart was pulverized, and I handled it. I’m still here. It worked out just fine. I’m still dreaming. It didn’t squash my hopes or dreams. It didn’t take away anything. It just was a little blip as I talk to the universe and explain what it is that I want. Okay. So what I’m gonna do is I’m gonna ask you to just be a little delulu. Be a little delusional. And I wanna be careful with that word ’cause I know the internet has been using it to mean, like, to pretend everything’s fine, and that’s not what I mean. I don’t want you lying to yourself, and I don’t want you calling a bad thing a good thing, right? I don’t want you finding the silver lining in, like, a shit sandwich. Like, that’s not the goal. But delusional, to me, means that you refuse to require evidence in advance. You want the thing before you can prove that it’s possible, and you say it out loud. Say it with me. We’ll say it out loud, right? Do you guys remember when I went to Iceland, and I had … At the time, I had left my husband And I had decided I was just gonna travel around for like six months, and I wanted to really work on myself and get some space. And I had gone down to Florida, and I had gotten an Airbnb for a month, and I was sitting in bed one night looking at TikToks, and I saw this TikTok of this guy who was snowshoeing. It was in Finland, and he was snowshoeing, and the video was like the northern lights swirling above him. And do you guys remember, I said out loud, out loud, “I want that. I want that.” And the that that it was, it was, it was the feeling like life was magical. It was noticing like just the beauty of the world that I am so lucky to be in. It was feeling free, I think, and it was just like th- I just, I, I want that. I watched that video like 20 times. I remember thinking, “How many times have I watched this?” over and over and over again. And like the music in the background was like … I was crying. So repetition, heightened emotion, clarity. I want that. Now, you know, I didn’t even own a winter coat at that time. So it wasn’t like I wanna go to the w- like cold. But if you guys remember, the very next day as I’m scrolling on Facebook, I see a post in a group I’m in saying, “We have one spot left. We’re going to chase the northern lights in Iceland. Does anybody want it?” And I said, “Whoops, I guess that’s for me.” And it went against who I was at that time to just do that, and it gave me clarity, and it gave me confidence, and I believe it helped project me forward on my, on my m- mission in my life. But I said it out loud, “I want that.” I ordered off the menu, and it came. And I’ve said that here before, and I’m gonna keep saying it, ’cause that’s what it is. You order the thing, and you don’t wait to find out whether the kitchen has it. You just order it knowing it’s coming. When I was pregnant, I, I got the room ready. I knew it was coming even though I couldn’t see it. Well, I mean, I could I could feel it. I knew something was happening, but I prepared because I had belief. I didn’t know if everything would work out, but I had belief that it would. Every time that you say it first and it works out, you get a little more willing to say it again. And that’s why it looks like everything works out for some people, right? It’s not that they’re the luckiest. I, I remember I was in a training years ago, I think I’ve talked about this on the show, but I was in this training and this woman said, “I hate it when people say I’m lucky. I’ve worked hard. I’ve worked hard.” And I remember thinking, “I don’t wanna work hard. I wanna be lucky. I wanna be so lucky. I want everything to just work out.” And I don’t think that- People have more luck or less luck, I think that it’s what you’re expecting. It’s not that people get luckier, they’ve just been saying it out loud longer, and so they have more proof. And so they say it faster, and they believe it more, and then they get more proof. And you can start saying that on… at any age. Like, you don’t have to start when you’re young. You could start right now, although we are young, right? But there’s no window on it. There’s no, like, you have to do this between 21 and 27. Like, that’s the part that’s sort of magic about it. And, you know, I have said before that your whole life can change in a single day. I learned that. I’m so grateful for whatever my brain did as a young kid, however my brain was programmed. I, I, you know, I don’t know what made it possible, but when my mom died, when I went to school one day and my mom got in a car accident, and I thought, “Life can change in a fricking instant.” Like, I, got up one day and life was good, and I went to bed and it was never ever the same. It will never be the same as it was that morning I got up. And so I knew, because my brain did something funky, that that could go in the opposite direction. I knew if I believed one, I had to believe the other. And your whole life can change in a single day. You know that ’cause you’ve lived it. You’ve woken up as one person and gone to bed as another person too. Nobody warns you. You learned that the hard way. And so did I. But the ground isn’t unfixed in one direction. It’s just unfixed. And if it can all change in one way, it can all change in the other way, too. It’s the same exact mechanism, which means that the thing that you could want could show up next week, and you would have no way of seeing it right now, where you’re sitting right now. And I don’t think that’s, like, optimism. I actually think that’s just how it works. Because if you believe that my mom died and my whole life changed in an instant, then you have to believe the other, that that’s how it works. Okay. So now, if you are sitting here in this, like, big decision right now, maybe about your life or about your marriage or about your, where you live or whatever, I wanna say something to you, and that is that you cannot make that decision from a place where you believe nothing can change. Because if you believe that your life is fixed, then every door looks like it’s going someplace terrible. And you look one way and you see the next 20 years of exactly this thing, and you look the other way and you see loss. And then people ask you, “How come you can’t just make a decision?” You can’t decide because nothing you’re looking at has any possibility in it. And I’m not telling you what to do. I’ve never told you what to do. But I want you to notice whether you’re deciding from a life you believe can still change or from one that you’ve decided is probably just finished, that this is just how it is I got a message from a woman that went through the program, and she had celebrated her wedding anniversary. Dinner out, great night. She said a year earlier, she never, ever would’ve imagined that she would be on the back of a motorcycle holding onto her husband, having the best day. And you know what she actually wrote word for word, here I’m quoting her, is that, “He didn’t suddenly turn into a knight in shining armor on a horse to swoop me up on a magical day. I created the magical day by trusting myself to say yes to the experience that I wanted to have.” Wow, right? She didn’t wait for someone to hand her a magical day. She said it out loud first, right? So say it before you can prove it. That’s it. That’s the whole thing. That’s the podcast. Say the thing that you want out loud in front of somebody. Well, there’s nothing in the hat. Everything has always worked out for me, not in the way that I planned it, but it has. And I want that to be true for you, too. I want you to be able to recognize that you’ve got abracadabra- don’t let anyone who doesn’t have abracadabra take away any of your magic. And if you’re in a decision right now about your marriage, and you can’t hear yourself, and you don’t know how to find the magic, well, well, I made a free masterclass. There is a free masterclass you can go to, and it doesn’t tell you what to do. But it does tell you how we can help you. You can find it on my website, just at betsy pake dot com. But I want you to think about if I believed there was possibility, what would I do? I promise you wouldn’t stay stagnant. If you believed in the abracadabra, you would say it out loud, and you would notice what you felt called to do. All right. And you know, when you can do that, I think that’s how you live a big life. I gotta finish with that every time, you guys. All right. If you wanna talk to us about coming into the Navigate Method, and I’ve got something else coming soon, if you’ve already left your husband or you’re never gonna leave your husband, I love that for you, too, I’ve got something cool coming. I’m gonna talk about it in the next couple weeks. We’re gonna be launching the next retreat. Please, please come so I can tell you all the things I can’t say on the podcast. And yeah, I love you guys so much. I will see you, I will see you next week Thanks for joining me on The Art of Living Big.

A poem about a map opens North and South, the first collection of the great twentieth century poet Elizabeth Bishop, and since, maps have been associated with her poetic vision—at once telescoping and binocular—and with the polarities and preoccupations of her work. The map's privileged, sweeping, bird's eye view of the earth is also hand-held, man-made, intimate. Depending on its level of minuteness or obsession, it can contain the tiniest details as well as, let's say, the whole enchilada. And though it purports to be scientific and objective, it is representational and therefore subjective, particular, imaginative, and personal. For several episodes, Wes & Erin will be reading a selection of some of Bishop's most anthologized poems, starting with “The Moose” as expressions of, among other things, her map-like imagination. Upcoming Episodes: Nolan’s adaptation of “The Odyssey”; more Elizabeth Bishop poetry: “First Death in Nova Scotia,” “One Art.” Pre-order Erin’s forthcoming book “Avail” here: http://subtextpodcast.com/avail For bonus content, become a paid subscriber at Patreon or directly on the Apple Podcasts app. Patreon subscribers also get early access to ad-free regular episodes.

And since maps have been associated with her poetic vision, at once telescoping and binocular, and with the polarities and preoccupations of her work. The map's privileged, sweeping, bird's eye view of the earth is also handheld, man made intimate. Depending on its level of minuteness or obsession, it can contain the tiniest details as well as, let's say, the whole enchilada. And though it purports to be scientific and objective, it is representational and therefore subjective, particular, imaginative and personal. Over the next few episodes, we'll be reading a selection of some of Bishop's most anthologized poems, starting with the moose as expressions of, among other things, her map, like imagination. This is Erin O'Luanaigh. And this is Wes Alwan, and you're listening to Subtext. Wes, have you ever seen a moose in the wild? 1:12 Wes: I have not, but I have seen Instagram videos of them and people getting too close, and I've heard that they actually are quite dangerous. 1:23 Erin: Oh, perfectly harmless. 1:24 Wes: As cute as they look. So not safe as houses. Which is a very surprising line, unless you think that houses maybe aren't as safe as they seem or ought to be. But that's something we'll talk about later. How about you? 1:38 Erin: I have not. And I actually, it's become a running joke among certain friends of mine that I haven't seen a moose because I long to see a moose in the wild. This is my dearest wish. 1:52 Wes: Is that the first time anyone said that in history? I long to see. 1:56 Erin: I don't know. 1:57 Wes: It's a good first line for a poem, actually. Why do you long. Long to see a moose in the wild? 2:03 Erin: Really? Maybe because of the poem. I don't know. I just really want to, but I. Maybe this will become significant without getting too personal or maybe with getting too personal. With apologies to the listeners. Ten years ago now, when my grandfather passed that summer, my grandmother wanted to go up to Maine and revisit certain places that she had been with him. And we ended up going to Acadia. And I was so excited to see. Am just. I got it into my head that I had to go to Acadia and see a moose. And I even bought a sweatshirt. I'm not wearing it right now. I looked down to see if I was wearing it. It's the same size and shape as this one. This is a Yankees, 1996 World Series sweatshirt. 2:42 Wes: It's not a Rocky and Bullwinkle sweatshirt, is it? 2:45 Erin: No, no, no. It's an acadia and it has a. It has a mousse on it. And so I bought it the first day that I was there and I was like, this is my sweatshirt and it has a moose on it. And I'm gonna. I'm gonna see a moose. And I did not see a moose. And then I. I bought a moose sweatshirt in, I think Grand Teton, and I was like, I'm gonna see a moose. And I did not see a moose. And then I lived obviously many years in Utah, and things would happen. Everybody knew I wanted to see a moose. And I would go to these trails where you could see moose. And I would like be going up a trail and someone would be coming down saying, there are moose up there. We just saw a moose. You just saw baby moose. I'd get all upsided and I would. I would run up and it was gone and people would taunt me. 3:32 Wes: So you don't want to see like a magic white heart or something like that? 3:38 Erin: No, no, I just want to see him. Even the garden variety moose? No, no. Just a humble moose will hide itself from me when. When it knows that I am after it. 3:49 Wes: Because they are a goofy, right? Are they majestic? Are they goofy looking? Are they both? 3:55 Erin: I think they're both. And I think that kind of qual quality is really well captured in the poem. No, I mean that quality of if not being then looking safe as houses or being a gargantuan size, and yet having. I know this is a female moose, which I believe is called a cow, as opposed to a bull. Right. But the bulls, even their horns have that hand like quality to them. You know, it looks kind of like an outstretched hand. 4:22 Wes: Interesting. 4:24 Erin: Yeah. They're not majestic. 4:25 Wes: Yeah, I think that's important to the poem. It's not some obviously majestic creature, although it is large and there is majesty in it in the poem, but it's not the typical majesty that you can just get from, oh, look at this beautiful animal. 4:41 Erin: Yeah. And this is kind of why I brought up my grandfather. There was some connection for me as I think there is something quite personal going on with the moose at the end, other than the shared experience of everybody in the bus, all of that. Like there's something bigger than us, more than us, and yet familiar in a way. And it's magical in a sense, because to see it is kind of a rare thing. Yet it also comes out of the landscape that she's that she's grown up in and that she's part of. I think there's a. Yeah. A lot of interesting dualities going on. 5:17 Wes: Okay. So maybe you can read the whole thing and then you could give a little bit. Or we could give a little bit of the biographical background because this is a bus trip she actually took. Right. 5:26 Erin: Yeah. 5:27 Wes: The significance of Nova Scotia, which is where she's departing from in the poem and all of that stuff. But. Yeah. Do you want to start by reading? 5:35 Erin: Sure. The moose from narrow provinces of fish and bread and tea, home of the long tides, where the bay leaves the sea twice a day and takes the herrings long rides where if the river enters or retreats in a wall of brown foam depends on if it meets the bay. Coming in the bay, not at home, where silted red sometimes the sun sets facing a red sea and others veins the flats. Lavender rich mud and burning rivulets. On red gravelly roads, down rows of sugar maples, past clapboard farmhouses and neat clapboard churches, bleached ridged as clam shells, past twin silver birches through late afternoon a bus journeys west, the windshield flashing pink, pink glancing off of metal, brushing the dented flank of blue beat up enamel, down hollows, uprises and waits patient, while a lone traveler gives kisses and embraces to seven relatives and the collie supervises goodbye to the elms, to the farm, to the dog. The bus starts. The light grows richer. The fog shifting, salty, thin, comes closing in. Its cold round crystals form and slide and settle in the white hen's feathers in gray glazed cabbages on the cabbage roses and lupins like apostles. The sweet peas cling to their wet white string on the whitewashed fences. Bumblebees creep inside the foxgloves and evening commences. One stop at Bass river, then the economies, lower middle, upper five islands. Five houses where a woman shakes a tablecloth out after supper. A pale flickering gone the Tantramar marshes and the smell of salt hay. An iron bridge trembles and a loose plank rattles but doesn't give way. On the left a red light swims through the dark. A ship's port lantern. Two rubber boots show illuminated, solemn. A dog gives one bark. A woman climbs in with two market bags. Brisk, freckled, elderly. A grand night. Yes, sir. All the way to Boston. She regards us amicably. Moonlight as we enter the New Brunswick woods. Hairy, scratchy, splintery moonlight and mist caught in them like lamb's wool. On bushes in a pasture the passengers lie back, snores some long sighs. A dreamy divagation begins in the night, a gentle auditory slow hallucination in the creakings and noises, an old conversation not concerning us but recognizable somewhere back in the bus, grandparents, voices uninterruptedly talking in eternity, names being mentioned. Things cleared up finally. What he said, what she said, who got pensioned. Deaths, deaths and sicknesses. The year he remarried, the year something happened, she died in childbirth. That was the son lost when the schooner foundered. He took to drink. Yes, she went to the bad when Amos began to pray, even in the store and finally the family had to put him away. Yes, that peculiar affirmative. Yes, a sharp indrawn breath, half grown, half acceptance. That means life's like that, we know it. Also death talking the way they talked in the old featherbed, peacefully on and on, dim lamplight in the hall, down in the kitchen, the dog tucked in her shawl. Now it's all right now, even to fall asleep, just as on all those nights. Suddenly the bus driver stops with a jolt, turns off his lights. A moose has come out of the impenetrable wood and stands there, looms rather in the middle of the road. It approaches, it sniffs at the bus's hot hood, towering antlerless, high as a church, homely as a house or safe as houses, a man's voice assures us, perfectly harmless. Some of the passengers exclaim in whispers, childishly, softly, sure are big creatures. It's awful plain. Look, it's a she. Taking her time. She looks the bus over, grand, otherworldly. Why. Why do we feel. We all feel the sweet sensation of joy? Curious creatures, says our quiet driver, rolling his Rs. Look at that, would you? Then he shifts gears for a moment longer by craning backward. The moose can be seen on the moonlit McAdam. Then there's a dim smell of moose, an acrid smell of gasoline. 11:05 Wes: Thank you. Very nice. It's really great to hear it spoken out loud. Spoken is the wrong word. It's the word read, performed. Do you want to say anything about the form of the poem before I ask you about some of the autobiographical background? 11:22 Erin: Yeah. Short lines, six line stanzas, 20, I believe. 28 stanzas in all. Irregularly rhymed, should we say? Kind of like a lot of bishop, you know, we get A, B, C. Then sometimes not rhymed where you might expect. So the rhymes peek their heads out and then. And then recede. Chatty a little bit in places, lots of repetitions of words. But that. That's something we could talk about More. But, yeah, kind of. Kind of mysterious form. One of the best things I've ever heard or read, I guess, about Bishop was by Michael Hoffman, who wrote quite a bit about her. And he said that it seems as though every time Bishop is writing, whether in form or in a kind of nonce form that she's creating, that she seems to be just inventing every form, like from scratch. You know, there's no blueprint. She doesn't have a familiar style in which she writes or particular kind of verse form that she seems to gravitate to. And when she writes, you know, a sistina or a villanelle or a sonnet or something like that, it seems like she's almost inventing the form as she goes along. And in this instance, there's a real. I keep wanting to say homemade after Crusoe in England. But, yeah, I think that's maybe what he was trying to get at, that homemade quality, that sort of bespoke kind of quality. And in the places where the rhyme goes in and out, I think that's really exemplified. 12:53 Wes: Well, it better be bespoke. She took forever to write it. 12:55 Erin: Yeah, that's right. She started this in, I think, 1946. 13:01 Wes: And then she finished it when this 13:04 Erin: was published in Geography 3. So she finished it in the 70s. 13:07 Wes: Okay. 13:08 Erin: Geography 3 came out in 1977. And this must have been published before then, individually, perhaps in the New Yorker, I think. Oh, geography three is 76. I would say maybe 72 is the date that comes to mind. Don't quote me on that. 13:24 Wes: Do we know why it took her so long? Obviously, she put it down for a couple days here and there. 13:29 Erin: It was the July 15th issue, 1972. So close to the day that we're recording. Why did it take her so long? She just worked on things forever and ever and ever. You see it, if you read. I highly recommend to listeners that they Get Words in Air. A very, very thick book of all the letters between Bishop and her friend Robert Lowell. You see her bringing up things or even mentioning in a description that she's writing to Lowell in a letter, a line that will later show up in a poem. Yeah. Low rate of productivity is great to. 14:08 Wes: You know, I can relate to that. 14:11 Erin: I take it as my model, honestly. Like, you know, live. Live Large and die with a slim Collected is kind of a. 14:19 Wes: Kind of a great Monroe Doctrine. But call it. What's another name? Bishpro. 14:28 Erin: That's right. 14:29 Wes: Is it right that she was forced to complete it because she agreed to read it this is something for deadlines. Right. At Harvard's Phi Beta Kappa ceremony. 14:38 Erin: I didn't know that. I know she read it at that ceremony, but I didn't know that that's what. The impetus for completing it. But that doesn't surprise me. 14:45 Wes: Yeah. So deadlines help every once in a while. 14:47 Erin: Absolutely, absolutely. 14:49 Wes: And then biographically. Right. This is based on a trip that she actually took, and she. She'd been to visit relatives in Nova Scotia and then came back on this bus trip. And the. There really was a moose. There really was a collie. Seven relatives for the rest of it. Yeah, yeah. Seven else. 15:11 Erin: Yeah, yeah. The specificity and all of it's. You know, there is a kind of like a photo realism, not just in the style, but in the. You know, we could sort of be certain that these things happened the way that she is recording them somehow, and yet she's spinning it into something more than just reportage. 15:30 Wes: So she was raised partly by her grandparents in Great Village, Nova Scotia. Right. Her. Her father had died in infancy and her mother was institutionalized. 15:41 Erin: That's right, yeah. 15:41 Wes: She aged at. When she was 5. 15:43 Erin: That's right. 15:44 Wes: So it's important just because. Yeah. The bus is leaving Nova Scotia, but go. Go ahead. 15:48 Erin: Yeah, it is important. She was born in 1911 in Worcester, Massachusetts, and she's buried there. I've seen her grave up there. It has a line or two lines from the bite on her tombstone. All the untidy activity continues. Awful but cheerful. Yeah. So she was born in 1911. Her father died, I think, of Bright's disease when she was 8 months old. And then her mother was institutionalized when she was 5, and she never saw her again. She didn't die until the 30s, I think, while Bishop was at Vassar. 16:23 Wes: Do we know what she was institutionalized for? Mental illness in general? 16:28 Erin: Yes. I don't know exactly what. In a short story of Bishop's, she describes as her. A scream coming from her mother. And whatever was wrong was exacerbated by her husband's death. And so then Elizabeth was left to be raised by her grandparents in Nova Scotia who were quite poor. And I guess she was kind of running around barefoot on the farm and stuff like that. And her father's family were very wealthy, and so when they came up to visit Elizabeth, they were, I guess, horrified by the fact that she was just like, you know, running around, hanging out with farm animals. And they took her to. Back with him to Worcester, and she was very unhappy there. Very ill child. She had asthma and eczema. And really, like, I think almost died of both at one time or other, very unhappy. And then eventually she moved to an aunt's house in, I want to say, in Revere, Massachusetts, and she was a little happier there. And then she went to Vassar, and I've been to the Vassar campus to see various buildings associated with Bishop and also to see. They did a really fabulous exhibition of her postcards at the Vassar Library a couple of years ago, which I really loved, seeing her hand and her little. In jokes and asides and really amazing to see. Anyway, at Vassar, the librarian there set up a meeting between Bishop and Marianne Moore, who became a mentor to her. They were very close. And then also over the course of her life, she was very close with and had an important friendship with Lowell. Hence the enormous book of letters. I have it here. It's so heavy I could barely pick it up. But this is a great book. It's kind of like an epistolary novel. Yeah. And she was. I think it's important to say, too, that she was a lesbian who had a very long relationship with a Brazilian architect named Lota de Mecedo Soares, who was her partner in Brazil for 15 years. She lived down there, known for travel. A lot of her collections, whether it's Geography three, which is the most obvious one, or north and south, have. There are a lot of Brazilian pumps. There are a lot of geographical poems. The first poem in her first collection, north and south, was the Map, which is often read as a kind of ars poetica. She's known for these types of, you know, sweeping landscapes that the moose begins with, and an interest in landscape and in this kind of bird's eye view. But then also you get these telescoping details, like a cinematic close up interspersed. Much is made of that in Bishop, of that kind of vision of hers, and specifically of, I don't know, the idea that she creates these. These beautiful miniatures, which is true, but maybe sometimes can be a little. I mean, she's revered, as she should be, and she's one of the most popular poets and she also has a great ear and she has so many other great things going on. So I don't want to exclusively focus on that kind of visual element, though it's there and it's very rich. 19:43 Wes: So from narrow provinces of fish and bread and tea. That's a very good opener. Why are they narrow provinces? And what is the. What are the fish and bread and tea doing? Fish and bread sounds vaguely like it could be a biblical reference, but maybe it's not. But you add tea. Right. There's something mundane here and perhaps restricted, provincial. And that's what she's going to be departing from. I mean, well, begins with the tides, but. 20:12 Erin: Yeah, right. Yeah, that's right. Narrow in a few kinds of ways. Because there's a strange. Because of the Bay of Fundy, there's almost that like U shaped corridor of land around it. So Nova Scotia is kind of narrow. And then up into. Then there's the narrow isthmus. I don't know, I don't know if I'm using that word correctly. Up into New Brunswick. Yeah, so there's something maybe a little, I don't want to say spiritually narrow, maybe somewhat limited or like practical. Practical and, you know, just the necessities and a place we learn that that is. That maybe has to be stalwart in response to the vagaries of the water around it. The Bay of Fundy, I was reading online, the tide, over the course of just one tide, can rise and fall 50ft because the bay is like a giant funnel. When it goes out, it just leaves this vast, open, muddy plain basically behind it. 21:16 Wes: She portrays this very beautifully. We get the image of the tide retreating and then the flats that are being illuminated by the setting sun as burning rivulets. And then there's almost a transition into the bus ride when she says on red gravelly roads, eventually the subject of that is going to be the bus. Although in the beginning, before we get to the bus, it looks like the rivulets have almost become roads. So you almost get the sense like the tides come in and it's going to go further inward, it's going to go all the way to Boston, but it's going to become the inhabitants of the bus who are much like the herrings. Right. In the first stanza. The herrings on the tides take herrings on long rides. So it's almost as if as the tide comes in, she is caught in the tide and brought along with it towards her destination. 22:08 Erin: That's right, yeah. And the bay itself, the water itself is also like a traveler, you know, you might go to visit it and find it's not at home, it's gone out for on a trip or something. So there's also that connection as well. Whereas the roads are part of this more solid and dependable and the water being fickle and not always depended on to be there. 22:31 Wes: Well, I was going to say there's something very poignant about the way she describes the tides and whether they're in or out. And I can't put my finger on it exactly. It's almost. It's this idea of. Right. Where if the river enters or retreats in a wall of brown foam depends on if it meets the bay. Coming in the bay, not at home. If the tide is in or coming in the river clashes with it in a wall of brown foam. Is that the idea now? And what's the image there? Is it always a wall of brown foam? Well, either way, I just. Something about this idea of. It depends on whether the bay is at home or something like that. It's a poignant image. 23:12 Erin: It is. It's that sense of just. Of disappointment or just missing someone, like a missed opportunity. Seems kind of surprisingly emotionally resonant, considering that she's talking about a tide. 23:25 Wes: And we. You know, it introduces the idea of home and. Which I think will be significant. And later on we'll talk about whether the moose is safe as houses and the reflections of the elderly and all that stuff. But. 23:40 Erin: And boundaries, too, right. You have very slippery boundary between the bay and the. And the sea, between the rivers and the bay that feeds them. And I think that boundary very much plays into the idea of home. And you could say that the bus seems to be a part of that too. Right. Like the bus becomes the home. So there's a little bit of the slippery idea of this transposition of home life into the bus, or the people on the bus all becoming the. We like a family within it. The way that it can literally cross national boundaries. It's going to Boston across the border. 24:18 Wes: Yeah. And then they'll be observing provincial life, I guess, from within the bus. And. And, you know, a woman shaking out an apron, for instance, or home life. But, yeah, I had the same thought to you. The bus. The interior of the bus becomes its own kind of mobile home, I guess. I guess the wall brown foam part. There's that push and pull, or it's a matter of who's doing the pushing. Right. In one case, the brown foam. The wall of brown foam is caused as. As the river pushes on the retreating tide. And the other case, it's the tide pushing back against the river as it comes in. But in either case, there's a clash there. 24:58 Erin: Then there are places, though, where there's blurring of boundaries. Like one of my favorite lines in the whole poem, the idea of the churches as ridged as clamshells. She always takes that. This is much remarked upon among scholars of Bishop. Where you get the thing that's. That's really big, suddenly reduced in size to the handheld, but coming out of the same idiom. You know, both the clamshell and this clapboard church are in a way equally native to Nova Scotia. The brilliance of connecting those two things and fishing being an industry in the area, you know, sort of springing out of the fishing industry. 25:42 Wes: Yeah. And shells are what's left as the tide retreats. Right. As it's as if the houses are just the natural residue of a retreating tide. 25:52 Erin: That's great. 25:52 Wes: From the beginning of the poem, there's a sense of momentum, and almost like you, at least in my case, I felt like I'm on a camera moving over the landscape, and it starts with the tide, and then it moves to the burning rivulets. Right. So now we're hovering over. I don't know what you would call it, a. A tidal plane. Anyway, she calls it the flats. Right. So all the silt, and we're moving along there, and then suddenly we're on a gravelly road. So the sun takes over from the sea. The redness of the sun. And then the bus takes over from the sun. But that's the momentum of the poem is from sea to sun to bus. 26:37 Erin: Yeah. The bus flashes pink. We get lots of pairs of the same word, creating a kind of chime with each other. So we get the windshield flashing pink. Pink glancing off of metal. And we wonder, I suppose, because part of the reason why the roads are red is because of the clay content. Right. Of the road itself. So we get that combination of, like, something red in the road or in the composition of the soil and rock of the area. 27:07 Wes: Laterite, I think, which I only know because of Graham Green, who I've been reading. Oh, and what heart of the matter. He's talking about laterite houses, like. So from the red clay, you can make, you know, homes from as well, and common in Sierra Leone. So he used the word like a hundred times before he finally looked it up. All right. There must be something that's going to not know what he's talking about. I'm like, oh, okay, now I get it. Yeah. 27:41 Erin: So that's the mineral, the. 27:44 Wes: It's reddish. Yeah. Reddish clay type of soil, topsoil or something like that. I should know more about this because I used to write about this, too, when I was writing about transportation and engineering. 27:56 Erin: Right. 27:57 Wes: It's important what kind of soil you're building on. But anyway, I remember nothing about that. But, yeah. So it could be the right word. Who knows? But. But, yeah. So you're getting at the. Yeah. The way the redness of the sun is interacting with the. 28:12 Erin: Yes, it's coming. 28:13 Wes: The redness of the soil. 28:14 Erin: Yeah. And that kind of redness coming from below and above to glint off of the bus. The windshield is flashing pink from the sun and the metal is flashing pink from the road. They're both brushing the dented flank of the blue beat up enamel from one direction or the other, it seems. Yeah. Sort of tunnel of red in which the. In which the bus is traveling. 28:41 Wes: Such a vivid image that she gives us. It made me think, you know, sometimes it's almost better than film. It's more vibrant or more. Don't know how to say it, but I was thinking about this because in some of the philosophy podcasts we do, there are philosophers who deny that we have imagery in our head. Exactly. Or we can never. Which seems true. Right. We can't imagine anything with the vividness that we would have if we actually saw it. But it makes me think when I read a poem like this, but also. And also reading some of the novels I've been reading. Well, there's a special kind of vividness to figurative language that perception can't capture. In some ways it's more. More vivid, definitely. 29:26 Erin: I think the sonic quality of the word, the repeated. Right. It's on the one hand a repeated image, but then it also creates that kind of just the soundscape, makes them feel somehow more synesthetic to say, but somehow more picturable or more tangible or more. I don't know, the pink glancing off metal, the dented flank beat up enamel. You know, there's just. It's like. I think that's contributing to it, to the vividness of the image. And yeah, you talked about momentum, too. I mean, this entire. This whole first sentence is six stanzas long. It ends with. And Akali supervises. So there's also that kind of. Yeah. Locomotive propulsion of the camera work, so to speak, Zooming in and then following the road into the bus. And then the bus arrives to sort of catch again, quite cinematically the scene that's actually happening or the place where the eye, if there is an eye in the poem, actually is the lone traveler embracing these relatives with the collie watching on. So there's a sense in which the I eye of the poem doesn't actually catch up with the speaker until stanza six and the end of this first sentence until we get goodbye to the elms, to the farm, to the dogs. So there's kind of lamination at that moment of the I eye and the capital I. 30:49 Wes: We seem to be gradually getting more of a point of view. Right. It's very omniscient in the beginning, hovering over the landscape. And I think gradually we're going to be getting a her point of view in the bus and then a we. But also just to note, this is one. I think this is the first of three pauses. Right. There's gonna. It's gonna pause here, the bus. The momentum is gonna stop as the bus lets on the lone traveler, which I presume is her. Right. Her saying goodbye. And then there'll be a pause when the amicable freckled woman gets on. She's there because we need everything to be in threes. And then we. Then we're gonna pause for the moose in the very end. I didn't miss anything. Right. There's not other places where we stop? 31:32 Erin: No. I mean, there are, of course, stanzas that end some more definitively than others and stopped with a period. There's a stop at Bass River. Right. So there is a little bit of that kind of start. Stop syntactically. But I think you're right that those are the stops where there's content. 31:49 Wes: Content goes. 31:50 Erin: Yes. And where there's a very particular. Yeah, the content of the bus, except for the moose obviously doesn't get on the bus. But there's a stop that's motivated, let's say, rather than just being described as various stops along the way where we don't know who got on and who got off or whatever. Certainly there's also a movement toward that more personal experience of the speaker. But then there are also things that the speaker couldn't possibly know or you know, because once she's said goodbye to everyone and gets on the bus, then we also get the sort of nature show close ups. The crystals of fog, the lupins like apostles, the sweet peasants clinging. One of my favorite parts, clinging to their wet white string on the whitewashed fences. Again, we get two uses of white right next to each other. Bumblebees creeping in the foxgloves. All things you really can't see from certainly from a moving bus. 32:43 Wes: Yeah, the point of view gets focused very, very gradually, maybe through the whole palm. Maybe it's not fully focused until the very end, but. Yeah. So you're pointing out something important which is at the sort of omniscient point of view is still here in these very. What do you call it when you take a close up with your phone? Macro, ironically. Yeah. These very close up pictures of flora and fauna and very Beautiful. 33:12 Erin: Yeah. They compound and then they get more and more loaded and mysterious. And just when we're about to maybe go over the edge, we get recalled back a little bit. That's at least how I'm reading, for instance, stanza 12, about the ship's port lantern and the boot and the bark of the dog. And then suddenly a woman climbs on the bus. And so we're sort of stopped from going off into some sort of train of thought that you could follow there down a rabbit hole. But I love that stanza on red light swimming through the dark. It reminds me of the last stanza of disillusionment, of 10 o'. Clock. Do you know the old sailor, drunk and asleep in his boots, catches tigers in red weather? I think that's how it goes, the Stevens bomb, because we get the boots and the red light in the ship, so they're probably. No. No real connection there. 34:07 Wes: So all of these little intricate descriptions that she's giving, right. It begins with the light growing richer, which I take it mean, means we're approaching dusk and evening, or we're in dusk and it's evening is approaching and a kind of mini winter, Right. Something. It's a diurnal cycle, but there's a bit of a parallel to something seasonal. Right. So we get crystals forming and the images like sweet peas clinging and the bumblebees inside foxgloves. As evening commences, it's almost like. I don't know if this is true, but it's almost as if we're getting the response of the animals and flora and fauna to the commencement of evening. That's our first indication of it. So I was surprised to see, okay, it's still light out enough for us to see a woman shaking a tablecloth out after supper. And that is beautifully described as a pale flickering. Right. Almost as if that's something like the light reflecting off the enamel bus, or not pink anymore, but just a flickering of pale light and then gone, I suppose. Does that mean that we're now without light? Is that sort of the way nighttime is ushered in by the end of the next stanza? And it's in the next stanza that we see a red light in the dark. Now we have a ship in the dark. So it's almost as if. Yeah, the shaking of the tablecloth is like a magician. Abracadabra. Now it's nighttime, Right? 35:39 Erin: Yeah. I love that. Yeah. You're making me realize how many connections there are to Keats in this poem. Right. There's something Keatsian about it, very. To Autumn, you get the sweet peas clinging on the fence. You get that image of fecundity things on top of other things. You know, the mossed cottage trees and the late flowers for the bees. And then the shaking out of the tablecloth is like the hair lifted by the winnowing wind. Right. Because there's. There's wind, there are flowers and bees. And then there's also, of course, redness and that image of, you know, like the evening. Autumn. Evening redness. And maybe this is. Yeah. Rows of sugar maples. Those could be red as well. If we're in an autumnal landscape, can't be too late because everything is, you know, it's got to be like August, maybe because we have this. Or. No, I guess maybe not. Gray glazed cabbages. I don't know enough about cabbages to know at what point in their development. 36:40 Wes: Yeah. Whatever season it is. I just think that the evening is almost like a mini winter. It gets colder and we see the. 36:46 Erin: Definitely. 36:47 Wes: We see the effects of it. But, yeah, maybe autumn is probably the logical season for. 36:53 Erin: Right. Yeah. And that point. Or that point in the transition from summer to autumn where, I mean, even on a summer night in Nova Scotia, the evening temperature is quite autumnal regardless. And so when the woman climbs on with the market bags, we get. 37:09 Wes: Shall we take a. Shall we? 37:12 Erin: Oh, yes. 37:13 Wes: Let's let the freckled amicable woman on in part two. 37:17 Erin: She'll have to wait. 37:18 Wes: Let's not let her on the bus yet. 37:20 Erin: You have to wait for everyone else to get off before you can get on. It's one of the cardinal rules of public transportation. Okay, we will continue in part two. Thank you. 37:29 Wes: Thank you.

O maior ícone da comédia brasileira no Pânico! O eterno Trapalhão Dedé Santana invade a bancada para celebrar seus 90 anos de história no circo "Abracadabra". Em um papo emocionante e sem filtro, ele abre o jogo sobre as brigas de bastidores com Renato Aragão, as saudades de Mussum e Zacarias, a crise financeira após o sucesso e os segredos de Os Trapalhões.

Imagine…travelling back to a time before the Internet…before Mountain Dew Livewire…and before the neo-post apocalypse…This Summer, Apocalypse Video asks the question: Where Were You In ‘82?The date is August 13th, 1982. Steve Miller's “Abracadabra” is climbing the charts as it looks to steal the #1 spot from reigning champion: Eye of the Tiger; and a dramedy about high school life in the 80s is about to create one of the most famous stoner archetypes ever put to screen.The film...is Fast Times at Ridgemont High. And it's about to make some killer waves…now!I'm your host, Dave, and joining me as we try our best to offload some Van Halen tickets are fellow cinephiles and Ridgemont High alumni, Mike and Jackie.Topics of discussion in this episode include a film that's remembered as a Porky's style comedy, when in reality it's more of a Dazed and Confused style dramedy; we break down the horrors of working in the fast food industry; and finally, we compare the kids of Ridgemont to the current day generation and ask, “do kids today even still care about sex?”.Be sure to rate, review and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

El axión guía experimentos que buscan convertir la materia oscura invisible en una señal eléctrica mediblePor Félix Riaño @LocutorCoVarios experimentos buscan una partícula hipotética mediante campos magnéticos, circuitos resonantes y mediciones del ruido electromagnético.La materia oscura representa cerca del 85 % de toda la materia del universo. No podemos verla porque no emite, refleja ni absorbe luz de una forma detectable. Conocemos sus efectos gravitatorios. Las galaxias giran y se agrupan como si estuvieran rodeadas por una masa invisible.Una posible explicación es el axión. Esta partícula hipotética tendría una masa diminuta y una interacción muy débil con la materia ordinaria. También podría comportarse como una onda que atraviesa la galaxia.Jessica Fry, investigadora doctoral del MIT, trabaja en dos experimentos dedicados a buscarla: ABRACADABRA y DMRadio. Sus instrumentos intentan convertir el paso de los axiones por un campo magnético en una corriente eléctrica medible. El reto consiste en separar esa corriente del ruido producido por el propio detector. ¿Cómo se reconoce una señal que jamás ha sido observada?Conocemos la forma de la señal, pero ignoramos su frecuencia.Nuestro protagonista casi no tendría masa, no brillaría y atravesaría la materia sin dejar una señal evidente. Se llama axión. Por ahora, existe como una propuesta de la física.Si los axiones forman la materia oscura, una enorme cantidad de ellos estaría pasando por la Tierra. Debido a su masa diminuta, se comportarían como una onda continua, en lugar de aparecer como partículas aisladas.La teoría ofrece una forma de buscarlos. Un axión que atraviese un campo magnético debería generar una corriente eléctrica oscilante. Esa corriente repetiría un ritmo relacionado con la masa del axión.Jessica Fry y otros integrantes del grupo de neutrinos y materia oscura del MIT intentan medir ese efecto. ABRACADABRA ya opera en esa universidad. DMRadio está en desarrollo en Stanford. Ambos experimentos funcionan como receptores construidos para captar una frecuencia todavía desconocida.La corriente esperada sería extremadamente pequeña. El calor mueve las partículas de los componentes electrónicos y produce fluctuaciones. Los cables, los aparatos cercanos y las comunicaciones humanas también generan actividad electromagnética. Hasta una vibración puede afectar una medición sensible.El detector debe diferenciar ese ruido de una oscilación causada por axiones. Los físicos conocen la forma general que tendría la señal. Desconocen su frecuencia exacta porque tampoco conocen la masa de la partícula. Además, ignoran con qué intensidad interactuaría con el campo magnético.Por esa razón, el instrumento debe revisar muchas frecuencias. Cada ajuste cubre una fracción del territorio posible. Una búsqueda más amplia requiere tiempo, estabilidad y mediciones repetidas.Una señal llamativa tampoco basta para anunciar un descubrimiento. El equipo tendría que descartar fallas, interferencias y fenómenos conocidos. Después, otro detector tendría que encontrar el mismo patrón. La dificultad está en demostrar que la señal viene del universo y no del laboratorio.ABRACADABRA y DMRadio usan circuitos resonantes para reforzar la corriente esperada. La resonancia ocurre cuando un sistema responde con mayor intensidad a una frecuencia concreta. Es el mismo principio que permite seleccionar una estación en una radio.El detector se ajusta a una frecuencia y registra la actividad eléctrica. Luego cambia el ajuste y repite la medición. Cada frecuencia corresponde a una posible masa del axión. Los amplificadores cuánticos ayudan a medir señales muy débiles, aunque también tienen que controlar el ruido.Otros experimentos cubren regiones diferentes. BabyIAXO va a buscar axiones producidos en el Sol. Va a emplear un imán de diez metros que va a funcionar cerca de −270 °C. Una plataforma móvil va a permitir que el instrumento siga al Sol durante unas doce horas diarias.La Tierra también puede servir como parte de un detector. Su campo magnético puede interactuar con axiones ultraligeros. El espacio entre la superficie y la ionosfera actúa como un resonador natural para ciertas frecuencias.Ninguno de estos proyectos ha confirmado la existencia del axión. Los resultados actuales permiten descartar algunas combinaciones de masa e intensidad de interacción. Esa reducción tiene valor científico: indica dónde ya se buscó y orienta las siguientes mediciones.El axión fue propuesto después de que Roberto Peccei y Helen Quinn plantearan una nueva simetría en 1977. Su objetivo original era resolver una dificultad del modelo que describe la fuerza nuclear fuerte. Steven Weinberg y Frank Wilczek identificaron de manera independiente la partícula asociada con esa propuesta y la llamaron axión.Más tarde, los físicos observaron que esta partícula también reunía propiedades adecuadas para explicar la materia oscura. Podría existir en grandes cantidades, permanecer estable y ejercer gravedad sin producir luz visible.Los experimentos actuales siguen estrategias complementarias. Los haloscopios buscan axiones pertenecientes al halo de materia oscura de la Vía Láctea. ABRACADABRA, DMRadio, ADMX, CAPP y HAYSTAC pertenecen a este campo de búsqueda. Los helioscopios, como BabyIAXO, buscan axiones que serían producidos dentro del Sol.Un equipo de las universidades de Kioto, Hiroshima y Nihon estudió otra opción. Sus cálculos indican que la cavidad formada por la Tierra y la ionosfera puede amplificar señales cerca de ocho hercios. El análisis de datos geomagnéticos obtenidos entre 2012 y 2022 no confirmó axiones. Sí estableció límites terrestres más estrictos para una región específica de masas. Cada estrategia examina una parte distinta del problema.El axión sigue siendo una hipótesis, pero ofrece una ruta concreta para estudiar la materia oscura. ABRACADABRA y DMRadio buscan su corriente eléctrica; BabyIAXO busca axiones solares; la Tierra sirve como resonador natural. Ningún resultado confirma todavía su existencia.

Your tongue gives you away before your actions ever do.Abracadabra literally means I create as I speak. In 2026 in America you have more luxury than a king from the 1800s—your attitude is the cornerstone. I want never gets. When you complain, you are putting energy into a void, a bottomless pit. You cannot step into the same river twice. For a long time the rudders are broken, the brake lines aren't working, you're crashing into walls—until you stop fighting the current.You go low so you can build the blocks with others, not stay high and leave a gap. Plant flowers, put down soil, water them, position them in sunlight. The thorns choke out the new growth, sometimes the soil isn't right—but other times the seed really grows and the multiplication is plenty.Listen if you're ready for the audit: tracking your speech for one day and seeing what reality you're casting. I love you.

Send us Fan MailWhy "I'm Becoming Her" Might Be the Most Comfortable Lie You Tell Yourself On language, money scripts and the identity you're building every time you open your mouthThis week's episode came together from about four different places, and I'm not going to pretend it didn't. But it's also all kind of about the same thing: the words we use, the identities they're subtly building, and the very comfortable trap hiding inside one of the words we use most in this space.I start the episode talking about my VIP day with the brilliant Sue Jones-Miranda, human design queen and someone who has this unsettling ability to see straight through you in the best possible way. I'd been doing all the things, finishing the book, planning the September event, pushing forward on every front at once, and I could feel the burnout highway starting to appear on the horizon. The day with Sue brought me back to myself, back to what actually lights me up, writing and in-person connection, and reminded me that even when this is what you teach, it can be genuinely hard to see it in yourself.Then a few days later, at a property investing event of all places, a stranger said something to me that stopped me in my tracks.I'd casually said, more than once, that I'm financially illiterate. And he looked at me and said, quite gently but quite directly: well, that's the problem, isn't it. The way you're speaking about it.And he was completely right.In the episode I get into why that landed so hard, including the inheritance of that language from childhood, my dad's obsession with pensions, the rebellious kid in me who switched off, and the years of financial abuse in my marriage that reinforced an identity around money I've been carrying ever since. It was one of those moments where you realise a script is still running the show long after the circumstances that created it are gone.Which brings me to Abracadabra and why that is literally a magic word.And then there's the word I think we all need to be a lot more careful with. Becoming.On the surface, it sounds like exactly the right word for this work. And in some ways it is. We need the vision. We need to know who we want to become. But becoming lives in the future tense, and the future tense is a very comfortable place to park your dreams indefinitely. Becoming, left unchecked, turns into permission to wait. It becomes a polite, socially acceptable way of saying later, babe.The shift I talk about in this episode isn't to stop having the vision. It's to stop letting her live permanently in the future tense and bring her into the now. Not become her eventually. Be her now. There's a difference, and it's everything.I close on the difference between predictability and possibility, and why so many of us choose the devil we know over the woman we're actually capable of being. Certainty isn't coming. But trust? That's available right now.In this episode:Why I nearly burnt out again and what a VIP day with Sue Jones-Miranda reminded me about coming back to myselfThe moment a stranger at a property event called out exactly what my language was building in real timeFinancial abuse, inherited money scripts and the identities we carry long after the circumstances are goneAbracadabra: I create as I speak, and what that actually means for the words you're using every dayThe trap inside the word "becoming" and why it might be keeping your dream permanently in the future tensePredictability versus possibility, and why trust is the only currency that actually matters hereMentioned in this episode:The EDIT Your Life Journal, available on Amazon now in paperback and hardbackIf this episode landed for you, please share it with the woman in your life who needs to hear it.

He Got Sick the Day He Stayed. He Started Healing the Day He Quit.Thuan did not leave his job. His body made the decision for him.Three months on medical leave. A doctor who refused to clear him to return. A resignation email he sat with for a long time before he finally hit send.The same day he sent it, he started feeling better.That is the kind of story that sounds like luck until you hear the whole thing. Because Thuan had been planting seeds for years. Recovery. Yoga. Qigong. Sound baths. A decade of healing himself and then helping others heal inside the walls of addiction treatment centers. He knew what the work was. He just had not yet had the courage to take it into the world.The universe took care of that part.In this episode, Thuan shares how his path through Alcoholics Anonymous and Refuge Recovery led him to holistic healing, how a wellness director job he was not supposed to have changed his life, and how he and his business partner Britt built the Zen Den, a wellness studio in Connecticut designed for the one person everyone forgets about: the busy human who needs peace but has to be at work by nine.He also breaks down what the word abracadabra actually means. And once you hear it, you will never say it the same way again.In this episode:Why Thuan says he genuinely enjoys powerlessness, and what that taught him about trustThe resignation email that triggered his healingHow saying "2026 is going to be big for me" with zero plan behind it turned out to be exactly rightThe Zen Den model: mindfulness built around the real obstacle, which is timeThe one phrase that stops fear in its tracks: "My faith is stronger than my fear"If you are sitting with a nudge you keep ignoring, this episode is for you.Subscribe to Purpose Chasers so you never miss a conversation like this one.

Why scrolling is slowly killing your soul.Consuming other people's content leaves you feeling empty instead of inspired. The opposite of depression is expression. Consuming puts you in victim mindset—the victim has things done to them. The world isn't as it is, the world's as you are. You could work out—that is creating your body. I still work 50-hour-a-week job creating patios, retaining walls, planting trees. 97% who quit are employed by the 3% that never give up. Abracadabra means "I create as I speak." The speaker doesn't matter, the essence is what matters.The small things are the big things—get your small stuff locked in, you'll see a symphony. Masturbation, alcohol, pornography, too much weed, complaining, victimhood, too much food, laziness. You're brought low so you can recharge your spirit in ways material never will.

What are large language models, really? A genuinely different frame for what AI is, where it came from, and what it means to live alongside it. This episode of Permanently Moved is an hour-long audio essay on artificial intelligence, agency, and the history of computing that made LLMs possible. The essay moves from the invention of the mirror to double-entry bookkeeping, the printing press, the Manhattan Project, the transistor, and the particular civilisational strangeness of ChatGPT and its successors. It argues that the question everyone is asking about AI "is it intelligent?" is a trap, and it tries to ask a better one.  START SELECT RESET Issue 15 of SSRZ, the print companion to this episode, is available to pre-order now until Monday 16th March. 36 pages, A5, containing the full transcript plus an introduction and afterword not in the audio.

What if “magic” isn't fantasy — it's the way a child learns to trust themselves? In Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, hosted by Yusuf, author and coach Terry Bean shares why a children's book can quietly become a lifelong emotional toolkit. This episode is for parents, grandparents, educators, and anyone raising young minds in a noisy world. You'll hear how simple story moments, empathy-led questions, and a child-friendly mantra can help kids build self-esteem, reduce approval-seeking, and grow into kinder, steadier adults. About the Guest: Terry Bean is an author, speaker, and executive coach, and the creator of the children's book Abracadabra and a companion coloring book. She writes to help children build trust in themselves and their “inner wizard.” Episode Chapters: 03:31 “Magic is perspective” — why stories shape belief early 05:09 Building the “wizard within”: self-trust in a noisy world 09:49 The real shift: inner approval vs. chasing validation 12:53 Respect is listening with intent — not trying to win 14:18 Why people open up to AI: fear of being judged 17:04 How parents can use the book: questions, feelings, mantras Key Takeaways: Ask kids “How do you feel?” during the story — then gently ask “Why?” to open real conversations. Teach inner approval early so confidence isn't built on constant external validation. Pair confidence with empathy: strength without kindness disconnects us. Use simple mantras kids can remember (example shared: “Everything is always working out for me.”). Turn reading into a shared experience, not a lesson — the bond is the message. Help children practice listening with intent, so respect becomes a habit.

Abrimos este podcast con el ganador del Álbum del Año, en los Grammy 2026, por "DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS", la oda a su Puerto Rico natal. Bad Bunny se quedó unos instantes llorando en su asiento, mientras detrás aplaudía una Lady Gaga emocionada, que optaba por ese mismo premio (se llevó el de Mejor Álbum Pop Vocal por MAYHEM y el de Mejor Grabación de Pop Dance, por "Abracadabra"), hasta que subió al escenario y dijo: "Antes de dar gracias a Dios, voy a decir: fuera ICE (Servicio de Control de Inmigración y Aduanas de los Estados Unidos). No somos salvajes, no somos animales, somos humanos y somos americanos . El odio solo genera más odio. Lo único más poderoso que el odio es el amor. Si peleamos, tenemos que hacerlo con amor; nosotros no los odiamos, amamos a nuestra gente". El discurso Billie Eilish, que recogió el Grammy a la Canción del Año por "Wildflower", fue en la misma dirección: ""F**k ICE. Nadie es ilegal en una tierra robada y añadió que tenían que seguir luchando y protestando con la música y que sus voces realmente importan. The Cure también se alzaron con dos premios, por primera vez en cinco décadas de trayectoria, justo cuando acaban de compartir el mítico "Boys don't cry" remasterizado y en formato digital. Aparte, escuchamos a Tyler Ballgame, a Joyce Manor, a Dani Dicostas, a Fai Laci y todo esto.

Words are spells.Abracadabra means "I create as I speak."And you're listening to subliminal messages while thinking it's just fun.I still listen to Wu-Tang and J. Cole sometimes. But new rap? You gotta be aware of the unconscious influx of energy being ingrained into you. Words lead to thoughts. Thoughts lead to actions. Actions create feedback loops back to more words and thoughts. The world is not as it is—it's as you are. That's the quote on my wall. How you are is built upon words, thoughts, and how you conduct your consciousness.Can you open a drawer and know what's inside? Is your house organized? Your digital environment should be conductive to your truth, not your distractions and weaknesses. You're the conductor of your own consciousness. Stop wanting your desires—embody the essence first. When you move with alignment, the universe feels what you'll do with resources is great.This episode reveals the meaning behind abracadabra, how to embody the essence of your truth rather than just wanting it, and why we get so gripped by words and language. Look at life a little closer, baby.

What does abracadabra mean? You've heard magicians in tuxedos say it, as well as children with magic wands. Maybe even in a Disney movie! It feels magical even if you've never stopped to ask why. It's playful, mysterious, and seems to appear at the exact moment something changes. Today, I'm not talking about stage tricks or fairy tales. This is an invitation to reclaim the magic in words. Abracadabra was meant to heal and to shift energy, and offers a powerful doorway back to something ancient and surprisingly scientific. If you've ever felt stuck in the same mental loop, repeating the same old stories about yourself no matter how much inner work you've done, this is for you. The Magical Power of Your Words The words you speak shape your brain, your nervous system, and the life you quietly create every day. This is actually ancient and ties to the secret history of abracadabra. If you could travel back to the Roman Empire in the second century and told someone you were sick, they might prescribe something unexpected: Abracadabra – a word-based or spoken medicine. That’s when the earliest written record of abracadabra appears in a Roman medical text called Liber Medicinalis, written by a physician named Quintus Serenus Sammonicus. His instructions were precise. Write the word ABRACADABRA on parchment or metal. Then write it again below, removing the last letter. Continue line by line until only the letter “A” remains. The finished inverted triangle would be worn on a string around the neck, and was suggested for someone suffering from a fever. As the word diminished, letter by letter, the illness was believed to fade out too. Images of reconstructed abracadabra amulets still exist today and are physical evidence that words were once understood as active forces, rather than passive communication. What Does Abracadabra Mean? There isn't one agreed upon translation, which is common with magical words. Many scholars trace it to Aramaic, a language closely related to ancient Hebrew, with meanings along the lines of “I create as I speak” or “it will be created in my words.” Others interpret the word as “let the thing be destroyed,” which fits the idea of illness shrinking away. There are also connections to Hebrew blessing traditions and to a Gnostic figure named Abraxas. You don't need a perfect translation to grasp the shared belief underneath the theories. Saying something with intention, was believed to create change. Words shaped reality. A Form of Protection Between the third and seventh centuries, abracadabra also became a form of protection against misfortune and unseen forces. It was spoken, worn, and traced as a spiritual shield. Breath and sound were the tools. So when a magician says “abracadabra” before a big reveal, they're unknowingly echoing an ancient understanding. The moment you speak is the moment something shifts. Words are spells, in the past and still today. Ancient cultures all over the world shared this concept. Mesopotamian incantations were used to drive out illness. Egyptian healers combined herbs with spoken formulas. Biblical traditions delivered blessings and curses through speech. To the ancient mind, words were a force. Name something and you gained power over it. Speak a blessing and you invited it closer. Today witches may talk of spells but the vast majority of the population doesn’t go there. However, it does show up and is acceptable when discussing neuroscience, psychology, and neural pathways. The actual mechanism is quite similar. See, the stories you repeat to yourself like, “I always mess things up,” “nothing ever works out,” or “I'm too old,” act like incantations. The charm is created through your own voice, and the impact is on your nervous system. Unfortunately, this type of mantra spoken unconsciously and without intentional crafting, can backfire, and could even prevent growth or improvement. After more than twenty years working with intuition and mindset, I've seen this pattern again and again. Change often doesn't happen until awareness and usage of the language changes. The Neuroscience of Self-Talk Modern psychology has studied self-talk extensively. Self-talk includes the running commentary in your head and the sentences you speak about yourself and your life. Supportive, positive self-talk is consistently linked to lower anxiety, better coping skills, and greater resilience. Harsh, critical self-talk is linked to higher stress, increased worry, and decreased performance. On a brain level, negative language activates threat centers like the amygdala, while balanced, compassionate self-talk engages the prefrontal cortex, the part of the brain responsible for regulation and problem-solving. A fascinating 2024 study from the NIH explored what happens when people hear affirming statements spoken in their own voice. Turns out hearing your own voice activates brain regions tied to identity and personal meaning more strongly than listening to someone else's voice. This helps explain why a single kind sentence you say to yourself can calm your body, while a harsh one can feel crushing. When you speak to yourself, your brain treats it as deeply personal. Neuroplasticity is the brain's ability to change with experience. Every thought or phrase you repeat creates a pathway. Repeat it often enough and that pathway becomes easier to access. Negative Inner Dialogue If your inner dialogue constantly says, “I'm stuck” or “nothing changes,” you're reinforcing that route. When you begin practicing language like, “I'm learning” or “I'm allowed to begin again,” you start forging new trails. At first this might feel uncomfortable, but over time, the brain learns to favor them. In other words, the magic words you repeat most often becomes your reality. That's everyday abracadabra isn't it? Language affects your inner world and shapes how you perceive and interact with others. The brain loves consistency. It filters information to match the story you tell yourself or others. That's how a belief becomes self-fulfilling, not because the universe is against you, but because your nervous system wants coherence. I'm not suggesting any kind of by passing, ignoring reality, or your feelings. However, you can acknowledge reality and still choose language that leaves room for growth. Examples include: “This is hard and I'm learning how to handle it.” “This hurts and I'm allowed to receive support.” “This didn't go how I wanted and I'm still worthy of good things.” A Powerful Use of Words These thoughts or phrasses are still like “abracadabra” because they are a powerful use of words. Ancient healers didn't deny pain or discomfort. They combined practical care with ritual and language and you can do the same. Abracadabra, in its most empowering interpretation, means “I create as I speak.” Every time you describe who you are or want to become, your brain responds and so does the Universe. Possibilities open or close based on the language you choose. Listen to the podcast for the visualization I created to leverage Abracadabra and this idea of diminishing letter by letter to change a situation which updates your inner operating system. As you move through your day, notice how you talk about yourself. You don't need to monitor every word. Just become curious about the ones that feel heavy or limiting. Then, gently replace them with language that aligns with the life you want to create. This is modern magic, neuroplasticity, and a daily practice, all in one exercise . Abracadabra and there you go!

Today on Mea Culpa, I welcome back Malcolm Nance, a retired U.S. Navy Senior Chief, New York Times bestselling author, and a leading expert on terrorism, extremism, and insurgency. We break down Trump's accelerating slide into authoritarianism, from demanding social-media history from tourists to judges blocking his attempts to federalize the National Guard. Malcolm and I dig into Trump's racist immigration strategy, the growing shift toward a surveillance state, and the intelligence fallout from his Venezuela “drug-boat” strikes and dangerous flirtations with war. We also examine the stakes behind the Epstein grand jury file release, the Russia-Ukraine peace-talk leaks, and why Trump's foreign policy increasingly mirrors Putin's worldview.

Part II of my year-end review of pop music across 2025 tackles Selena Gomez & Benny Blanco's 'I Said I Love You First,' Miley Cyrus with 'Something Beautiful,' and Demi Lovato's 'It's Not That Deep.' All three acts shared similar experiences in the earlier halves of their music careers, and this episode discusses the parallels shared between these artists in 2025. For Selena Gomez, I'll be diving into the couples branding behind her work with Benny Blanco, and how both the singles and campaign may be a mismatch for the album's core. On 'It's Not That Deep,' I'll be going through the recent album and how the singles may have prevented the album from reaching its full potential, and how Demi's dance effort is her most ambitious to date. Plus, how does Miley's new album stack up next to 'Can't Be Tamed,' 'She Is Coming,' 'Endless Summer Vacation,' or 'Plastic Hearts?' Let me know your thoughts as well.

Before Gaga does her first show in the country tonight, let's take you back to when... Mother Monster herself Lady Gaga opened up to us about her new album Mayhem, describing it as a collection of dark dreams expressed through celebration, with Abracadabra embodying resilience on the dancefloor. She shared how the music video, choreographed by Paris Goebel, represents the fight of life and was inspired by the strength and joy of the LGBTQ+ community. Gaga expressed deep gratitude to her queer fans, acknowledging their role in shaping her career and emphasizing the importance of standing together. Beyond music, Gaga revealed she’s prioritizing love, family, and creative freedom, even dreaming of writing her own Broadway show in the future. And in the chat, Gaga hints at an Aussie tour.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

When the industry demands boxes, what happens to the artists who don't fit inside them?As the electronic music world accelerates and algorithms dictate the spotlight, what does it really take to succeed in the artistic mission? Recorded live at Amsterdam Dance Event, this special episode dives into the emotional, spiritual, and structural realities of life as a modern artist with Enamour - one of the most musically dexterous and introspective voices in the scene today.Rooted in decades of musicianship and shaped by Washington D.C.'s underground, Enamour has earned support across Rose Avenue, Anjunadeep, Abracadabra, and beyond. But behind the success lies a far deeper story: the psychology of creativity, the quiet battles of perfectionism, the hidden economics of touring, and the slow erosion of the “middle class” of musicians navigating today's increasingly commercialised landscape.“Creativity works best when you stop trying to control it and start learning to listen to it.” - EnamourJoin us as we explore:✅ Reflections from ADE 2025✅ The real emotional cost of the artist's life✅ Why genre fluidity is both a gift and a gamble✅ The truths behind DJ fees + a shrinking creative middle class✅ How fans unknowingly influence culture + lineups✅ Building a career without losing your centre➤ Follow us at:Instagram:⁠⁠ @missionmakersInstagram:⁠⁠ @dj.n1njaTikTok:⁠⁠ @dj_n1njaSoundcloud:⁠⁠ @dj-ninja➤ Credits:Music: Mission Makers - N1NJA (Unreleased)Producer: Farah Nanji➤ For show notes + more on our host visit:⁠⁠https://mission-makers.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.dj-ninja.com/⁠⁠

Kicking off my chronological review of pop music across 2025 with Tate McRae's 'So Close To What' & Lady Gaga's 'MAYHEM.' Both artists kicked off in Q1 with some of the years most defining albums, and in this episode I'm breaking down the strengths and weaknesses of both projects in reference to the specific artists catalog, and the grand scheme of pop music at large. Plus, I'll be diving into the campaigns surrounding each album and how they tie to both longevity, public narrative, and their own Grammy chances. Did these albums hold up after months? Did the campaigns promoting the album help the artists reach their potential? I'll also be giving a special shoutout to another great Q1 project, which is 'SALVATION' by Rebecca Black.

From Jeffy’s Online Books to everything from A to Z, Amazon.com is an empire amongst empires. Bezos created something remarkable. Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast, teaching business owners the not-so-secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom-and-pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector, and storyteller. I’m Stephen’s sidekick and business partner, Dave Young. Before we get into today’s episode, a word from our sponsor, which is… Well, it’s us, but we’re highlighting ads we’ve written and produced for our clients. So here’s one of those. [Pinpoint Payments Ad] Dave Young: Ding-dong. Okay. Well, I was making noises there as we started. Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast. Dave Young here alongside Stephen Semple, and we’re talking about empires. I mean, businesses that started tiny and grew into behemoths, in this case, and often… Well, every time what we do is we let the countdown to the recording start, and then Stephen whispers in my ear today’s topic, and we see if I recognize it. Maybe perhaps I’ve heard of them. And today, he just said one word, Amazon. And I’m like, “Is that a river?” I mean, that’s what we all said back in the day when Jeff Bezos started it- Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: … was, “Really, you named it after a river in South America? What are you thinking? What’s wrong with you?” But I guess he proved them wrong. Stephen Semple: What you’re going to discover, wasn’t actually the first name. Dave Young: Oh, cool. They started with a different name and then switched to Amazon. Stephen Semple: Jeffy’s Online Books? Dave Young: Well, and here’s the thing. We’re 200-and-some-odd episodes in, and we’ve managed to hold off not covering Amazon. That’s a good point. Yeah. Stephen Semple: And I resisted myself, because basically everything that’s to be said about Amazon has probably been said, but I did come across a couple of interesting little tidbits that we’re going to focus on- Dave Young: Oh, cool. Stephen Semple: … that I hope gives a little bit different picture to Amazon than the other things, people. Look, Amazon is a massive success, has changed the way the world is, was unbelievably innovative and forward-thinking. And today, Amazon does like 8,000 orders a minute. Dave Young: A minute? Stephen Semple: A minute. Dave Young: Unbelievable. Stephen Semple: Crazy, isn’t it? Dave Young: Mm-hmm. Stephen Semple: And Jeff Bezos is one of the richest men in the world, and Amazon is just a monster out there. But here’s the thing that’s also really interesting. Jeff Bezos did not come from technology or retail. And how often have we seen this over and over and over again, that these businesses are built by people from outside the industry? That is like 9 out of 10, or probably even more like 99 out of 100. He was an investment guy that was working in the early ’90s on Wall Street. That’s what he was doing. And he was making big bucks doing research in the technology space. So he was working in the space, but he wasn’t a tech guy or a retail guy. And he comes across this report about growth in the internet space. And he literally… It boggles his mind. He’s working away in Wall Street, comes across this report, and it says, the space is growing at 2300%. And he literally, as the story goes, picks up the phone, calls the analyst, and said, “There’s a typo here.” And they were like, “No, this is how it’s growing.” And he was like, “Oh my God.” Now, let’s think about this for a moment, because it’s easy to forget this. 1989 is when the first online transaction on the World Wide Web happened. Dave Young: I wouldn’t have thought it was even that long ago, but yeah. Stephen Semple: Yeah, yeah, but it was, like, one- Dave Young: Yeah. It’s ancient history now, but… Stephen Semple: We forget, we forget how much the growth is. And if you really want to go back, probably the best documentation of the growth we’ve had is episode 227 on AOL. Because AOL was really a driver of internet growth. It really was. It was really one of the pioneers that took people online. So to be looking at these things in the early ’90s and go, “Hey, I see growth in online retail,” that’s really forward-thinking. I’ve got to give Bezos credit. Not a lot of people were thinking that way. So he looks at this growth and he says, “There’s got to be potential to do a business in this space.” And that’s where he starts off. We’ve got to do a business in this space. So he does brainstorming ideas with his wife at the time, McKinsey, and they look at investment sites, they look at advice sites, but he decides it needs to be a store, because people shop every day. Everyone. It’s mass- Dave Young: An online store, yeah. Stephen Semple: It’s mass, it’s something we do all the time, it’s habitual, and he doesn’t want to do something that’s a niche. And it has no boundaries, and ideally you could remove a lot of the friction in shopping. But he realizes he can’t start that way. This is the other part where I thought he was brilliant. His vision was always online store, but he knew you can’t start as an online store. You can’t become known for being an online store. It’s too big. You need to pick one thing. Dave Young: But he had that vision long before he started selling books. Stephen Semple: The goal was to sell everything. Dave Young: Everything. Stephen Semple: But he knew that’s not where you start. And this is what I find interesting. It’s amazing how many startups I talk about have these massive visions, and it’s too big. You can have that massive vision, but you got to still start with something smaller. And that starting something smaller doesn’t limit you. Jeff Bezos has proven that. So he steps back in this point. He’s trying to figure out, “Well, what’s the one thing I want to do?” And he ordered a book called Cyberdreams by Asimov, and it took two weeks to arrive and arrived damaged. And the ordering process was a bit of a pain in the neck. And he went, “You know what? There’s an opportunity to do better here.” And at the time, the book business is very fragmented. There’s two big players, Barnes & Noble, and Borders. But they combined are only 25% of book sales. So still, most book sales are being done by little retailers. So it’s dominated by all sorts of little players, and they don’t do a good job of shipping books. So he says, “There’s the opportunity. Books is the opportunity.” He quits Wall Street where he is making like a million bucks a year, moves to Seattle to start the business, and he moves to Seattle because University of Washington at the time has got basically the top computer engineering school, Microsoft is there, so there’s lots of good engineers available. Dave Young: Gotcha. Stephen Semple: Hires a programmer, Shel Kaphan. And the first name of the company was not Amazon. It was Cadabra, as in- Dave Young: Cadabra. Abra. Stephen Semple: As in “Abracadabra, your book arrives.” Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: Name didn’t work well. People thought it was… Dave Young: Magic supplies, or- Stephen Semple: No. Well, they actually mistake it, Cadabra for cadaver. Dave Young: Yeah, that’s not good either, now that I think about it. Stephen Semple: So they needed a new name, and they had very much still the phone book mentality. Remember how everybody wanted to be listed first in the phone book? Dave Young: Sure. You start with an A. Stephen Semple: So you start with an A, and the first name that kind of came along that they thought they could do anything with was Amazon. Okay, yeah. You know, it’s [inaudible 00:08:32] a river, all this other stuff. So they just went, “Sure, let’s do Amazon. We can make that work.” Dave Young: Well, and the smart thing is he picked a… unless I’m wrong, he picked one word as the name. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: It wasn’t Amazon Booksellers. Stephen Semple: No, Amazon. Dave Young: Amazon Online Booksellers. Stephen Semple: Right, because he still had the vision — Dave Young: That’s limiting. Yeah. Stephen Semple: Right, because he still had the vision, “I’m going to do more than this, but I need to start with one thing.” So Amazon. Dave Young: So that vision dictates you find a name that is big enough to handle the vision. Stephen Semple: Yes. World’s biggest river, right? So it’s June 16th, 1995, Amazon goes live. They wanted to make it simple and easy to order books, and what would happen is they will get the sale, then they turn around and buy the book from the wholesaler, repackage the book, and ship it out to you. So they basically had no inventory. Dave Young: I was going to say, you could test the whole idea by just setting up your office near a brick and mortar bookstore and walking over and buying the book. Stephen Semple: Instead, they were buying the wholesale. Dave Young: Drop it in the mail. But they’re buying from wholesale, so there’s a little profit in it for them. That’s good. Stephen Semple: Yep. So the book would come in, they would repack it, ship it to the customer. So really, at first they had no physical inventory, but they had a list of a million books. They could basically sell any book that they could get from a wholesaler. And Amazon rolls out with this claim. They have the Earth’s biggest bookstore, which is really crazy. Any book store could claim that, because they all had access to the same million books. But I also love… There was a little bit of an unusual wording here. Dave Young: Stay tuned. We’re going to wrap up this story and tell you how to apply this lesson to your business right after this. [Using Stories To Sell Ad] Dave Young: Let’s pick up our story where we left off, and trust me, you haven’t missed a thing. Stephen Semple: I also love, there was a little bit of an unusual wording here, because you sort of expect it to be the world’s biggest bookstore, rather than the Earth’s biggest bookstore. Dave Young: Oh yeah, that’s a good point. Yeah. Stephen Semple: Right? And I think that really, again, the slightly unusual wording that fit but doesn’t fit sort of makes things stand out a little bit more. The first week, they do 13,000 in sales. Everybody’s working, boxing books, including Bezos in the early days, and they’re struggling to keep up. Like, it’s working. Then they get a call from Yahoo. So remember, at the time, Yahoo is the monster. Mid-’90s, Yahoo is the leading search engine by a country mile. And Yahoo had this thing that they would do. Each week, they would feature the hottest websites on their landing page. And they give Amazon a call and they say, “Hey, would you like to be featured?” Now, they’re struggling to keep up. Bezos says, “Yep. Keep the pedal to the metal.” So Amazon’s already behind in orders, but they go for it, because the whole idea is get big fast. In a month, they’ve got orders from all 50 states, 25 countries, but they don’t have the infrastructure to keep up, and they’re operating at a loss and growing. So in 1996, they arrange for $8 million investment and they start hiring and updating infrastructure. Now, this point, they get the attention of Barnes & Noble. Remember, Barnes & Noble is the biggest retailer at this time. The CEO meets with them, and he’s known as being kind of a bit of a ruthless guy. He tells Jeff that Barnes & Noble is going to launch their site and it’s going to kill them. So the alternative is sell to Barnes & Noble. Barnes & Noble basically says, “Bezos, we’re going to bury you.” Bezos says, “No.” But here’s where Bezos is smart. Basically, Barnes & Noble tipped their hand. So in May, 1997, Barnes & Noble launches their site, and it’s not bad, and it’s getting better, but the heads-up made Bezos realize he needed the capital to compete. So he had also arranged to go public. So when Barnes & Noble launched their site, Bezos went public, literally same month, May, ’97. And he raises $54 million. But what he realizes, to win, he now needs to stock inventory and do it quicker than Barnes & Noble. So he starts building warehouses. Then, what is the next natural thing to add to books? Movies, and music. Remember? Dave Young: Yeah, I’m just… Stephen Semple: Right, because movies were DVD, and music was CDs, right? Nice, natural add-on. Dave Young: And you’ve already got people competing in that space. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: You’ve got places that are selling CDs and shipping you movies, like Netflix. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: So it’s 1999, and he grows from 610 million to 1.6 billion, 170% growth with the addition of that. Now, here’s the problem. The dot-com bubble bursts, and lots of businesses fail. Investors are switching their focus away from growth. You know how there was that whole thing, burn rate, burn rate, burn rate, doesn’t matter, you don’t need to be profitable. Now all of a sudden, you got to be profitable. And Amazon’s still losing money. And Bezos is told by the board that he needs to make money, he needs to raise prices. This is what the board says. “Dude, you’re raising prices.” What does Bezos do? Announces he’s lowering prices across the board by 30% on everything. He stands against the board, because he says, “This is my opportunity to crush the competition and win.” It’s really interesting, the Monday Morning Memo this week, from Roy H. Williams. So we need to note, it’s October 6th, so any listeners should go back, mondaymorningmemo.com, October 6th. Read that because it’s really interesting what Roy wrote this morning. It’s write down this whole idea, that when things slow down, this is when the little guy can crush the big guys. Dave Young: The big guy, yeah. Stephen Semple: This is what he did. Bezos stood against the board, board, said, “Raise prices,” Bezos said, “No, this is my opportunity to put the foot down, put the hammer down, and win.” And that’s what he did. And guess what? Not only that, few quarters after doing that, they hit profitability for the first time, because they exploded the transactions. They killed their competitors in that moment. So I think the parts that came across interesting for me that I wanted to talk about when it comes to Amazon is this whole idea of he knew he wanted to do something big, but he knew he couldn’t start large. So he spent a lot of time thinking about what’s the natural thing for me to start with? And he looked for something that was fragmented, then it’s easy to go in, that was not being done well, but was already a fairly regular purchase, so he did books. And then in terms of the expansion, what’s something that has very similar characteristics to books? Movies, music. Dave Young: That people are already accustomed to purchasing online. Stephen Semple: Correct. Dave Young: And startup people will talk about the minimum viable product, or minimum viable service, right? Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: And that’s sort of this. Stephen Semple: It is sort of, because he did it with no inventory. Dave Young: Sort of, but it’s not quite, though. Stephen Semple: Not quite. Dave Young: Because he wasn’t trying to make the minimum viable product or service. He was trying to find the entry path to something much, much bigger. Stephen Semple: Correct. Dave Young: When you have this idea for a business that, oh, we’re going to sell this thing online, or we’re going to do this service, and you just… When you think about minimum viable product, you’re forced to think small, and I think in some cases the risk is that you trim back that big vision. Stephen Semple: Yeah. He managed to hold- Dave Young: And you lose it. Stephen Semple: So there’s two areas where Bezos really showed his brilliance. And look, he’s shown his brilliance in so many different things. There’s whole books that have been written around his philosophies and whatnot. But these were the two that I thought have not been talked about before that I think we can all learn from as entrepreneurs, is he managed to hold those two ideas in his head, the long-term vision and the short-term thing he needed to do to get started. And he didn’t have the one limit the other. One, he was very clear, this one is the pathway to the other. But he was also okay to be known initially as a bookseller. He was fine with that. But he was able to hold those two contradictory ideas in his head and not sacrifice one for the other. And I think you’re right. A lot of people struggle with that, and he was brilliant at that. Dave Young: He was focused on it. Stephen Semple: He never lost sight of it. Dave Young: That’s a really good take on Amazon. I love this one. Stephen Semple: The other part is, and I think it’s particularly relevant for where we are today, is because there’s a lot of talk of consumer confidence slipping and things along that lines, is that he stood against his board. His board was like, “Okay, the tune of the day is we got to get profitable. You have to raise prices.” And what he knew is if he raised prices, this idea wasn’t going to work. And look, I’m not normally one saying, “Go lower prices. Go lower prices. Go lower prices.” But strategically, here’s what he knew at this point. His competitors were failing, his competitors were not making money, and his competitors had no more access to capital. This was the opportunity to destroy his online competitors. Dave Young: Yeah. Stephen Semple: The final nail… This is my opportunity to put my foot on their throat and win. Normally, a lowering a prices is not going to do that, but strategically in that moment, strategically in that moment, it was going to crush the competition. Dave Young: And he didn’t change the vision of the company to always be the low-cost supplier, right? It’s, like, that’s changed now. Stephen Semple: Right. Yes. Dave Young: You may find it for less on Amazon, but you may not. He didn’t make it as a strategy of focus on the company. Again, he made it as strategic decision for competition reasons. Stephen Semple: Correct. Dave Young: Which is what Walmart did, right? Stephen Semple: Correct. Dave Young: It’s just a similar story that’s not in the brick-and-mortar space. I love hearing this story. Stephen Semple: Yeah. And he took advantage of the moment. He saw that there’s this moment where this will work. There’s this moment in time where this will work, and I’m going to take advantage of this moment. Dave Young: And he became incredibly rich. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: Still is. And here’s, to me, the happy ending, okay? When he got divorced, his ex-wife got half of it, half of… I don’t know, half of Amazon, but half of all the money, at least, and she’s been given it away to charities and helping all kinds of people, not buying yachts. Stephen Semple: And look, and he didn’t fight it. He recognized her role. Dave Young: Yeah, yeah. Oh, sure. Stephen Semple: He recognized her role. Dave Young: No, [inaudible 00:19:52] full credit for that. Stephen Semple: It was not one of these drawn-out-in-court battles, because we didn’t hear anything about it. Dave Young: Yeah, and- Stephen Semple: So he did the right thing. Dave Young: Yeah, I think so. And she’s doing a great thing. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: Right? She’s clearly thought, well, yeah, “I can help a lot of people , still live a fantastic life.” Stephen Semple: I’d been resisting doing Amazon, although I felt like it’s hard to have a podcast like this and not talk about Amazon. Dave Young: It is. Stephen Semple: But I wanted to find a couple of things that I think just were a little bit different take, and a couple of things that we can really take away as business owners. And I like to call it the thin edge of the wedge strategy. What’s that starting point which you identified, that then you can pivot to the larger thing. And also, in the tough times, that’s your opportunity to become the leader. Dave Young: Okay. Well, that’s it for the giant, Amazon. Stephen Semple: Yep. Dave Young: You’re talking about an empire. Stephen Semple: Yeah. Dave Young: Next week, as marketers, we’ll be back to talking about the Apple 1984 commercial. No, we won’t. Thank you, Stephen. Stephen Semple: Thanks, David.
