To celebrate JBL's 80th anniversary, Audio Talks kicks off a new season with host Oisin Lunny joined by Stew Hume, Managing Editor of Total Production International, and Raul Gonzalez, Applications Engineer at HARMAN Professional, to explore how JBL's professional audio innovation has helped transform live concerts into global cultural movements. The conversation traces JBL's deep roots in live sound — from early milestones like Woodstock '69 and Pink Floyd's quadraphonic experiments, to today's stadium‑scale productions powered by JBL Professional systems. Stew shares insight from the production front line, unpacking how evolving audience expectations, theatre‑inspired storytelling, and cinematic stage design have redefined what a modern concert experience looks and feels like. Bringing together creative and technical perspectives, Stew and Raul unpack what it takes to deliver today's biggest live moments. From production design and storytelling to JBL Pro systems and immersive audio, they reveal how technology and creativity now work hand‑in‑hand to turn concerts into unforgettable cultural experiences.

"I don't have any really relevant credentials or qualifications when it comes to this sort of thing." Noam Sugarman got fed up trying to find a stereo system that looked good, sounded good, and didn't require an engineering degree to buy. So he built his own. With no audio background, he launched Dum Audio, raised $75K on Indiegogo, then ditched crowdfunding platforms entirely to run pre-order campaigns on his own Shopify store, where he saw better return on ad spend. Five years and $300K+ in sales later, he's shipping hi-fi turntables, speakers, and amps direct to consumer. We talk about pricing in a market where a stereo can cost $100 or $100,000, why his self-run Shopify campaign outperformed Indiegogo, and how 60% of his crowdfunding buyers added a subwoofer upsell he only expected a third to take.

"I have a show that I've had in mind for a couple of years, and I wouldn't say I'm too scared to pursue it. I just look at it and say, okay. I'd have a good time with that, but it would take a lot of work." One of the benefits of audio storytelling isn't just in the words we share; it's in the experiences we create. Recently, I welcomed back Rick Allen, to turn the tables and ask me three questions. We ended up talked about dream guests, unexplored episode topics, and the creation of audio experiences.

Welcome to this week's bonus episode as I share a new concept for the Winging It Travel Podcast. This is an immersive audio episode about my 20 km return hike to Garibaldi Lake over one night and two days. I share my experience hiking up with forest sounds and hiking poles, my reaction to the fantastic views of Garibaldi Lake, and the ups and downs of camp life. The elevation was 900m from the parking lot, with most of the elevation occurring in the first 6km of the hike towards the campground and vice versa back down the next day. Along the way, I collected sounds, spoke into the camera for a real-life reaction, and had a fantastic coffee product to share. I combined these with post-hike responses to give you the sense you were there with me on the hike. In this episode, we embark on an unforgettable journey along the stunning Garibaldi Lake Trail in British Columbia. Join me as I hike through dense forests, across scenic meadows, and up to the breathtaking Garibaldi Lake with crystal-clear turquoise waters. Along the way, I'll share tips for tackling this challenging yet rewarding trail. We'll set up camp at the beautiful Garibaldi Lake Campground for an overnight wilderness adventure. Canada is one of the best places in the world for lake views, and this one is no different. This is a true hiking adventure in Canada and one very close to my home city of Vancouver, just over an hour's drive away. This is a must when visiting the area!I am excited to share this new type of episode with you; let me know what you think. I hope it provides you with that travel experience and valuable hiking tips for Garibaldi Lake.Final Press—Thanks, guys, for sending me your new French Press design for coffee and tea. I loved it!

This new format delivers the content of the Generational Wellness Digest in audio form, making it accessible for those who prefer listening over reading. Each episode will follow the same structure of the digest, equipping listeners with tools and resources to optimize their health and create generational wellness. Here's what you can expect in this episode: Mindful Moment: Today, we start with a box breathing practice designed to activate the parasympathetic nervous system, enhance oxygen flow to the brain, and improve emotional regulation. This practice aids in reducing anxiety and stress, sharpening focus, and stabilizing mood. Mindful Reflection: Today's question is: "What are three personal strengths I possess, and how can I use them more effectively in my daily life?" Reflecting on this can increase self-awareness and alignment with personal values and goals. Affirmation: The affirmation for this week is a powerful reminder of self-acceptance: "I accept myself unconditionally, celebrating both my strengths and areas for improvement." This affirmation helps nurture self-love and embrace personal growth. Featured Article: This week's article explores the disparities in skin cancer among people of color. It addresses common misconceptions about skin cancer risks and the importance of sunscreen, regular dermatological check-ups, and proactive skin care. We explore why early diagnosis is less common among people of color and how this contributes to higher mortality rates from skin cancer. This audio experience is a step towards making health education more inclusive and accessible, aligning with our mission to close the racial health gap and create generational wellness.

Lead Pastor of Bell Shoals Church, Dr. Corey Abney, describes what Good Friday meant to those who were closest to Jesus in the first of a four-part immersive audio experience. You can watch the video version of this experience here: https://youtu.be/iQoGK7E10W8?si=bJY_IcR_98hUhVSV

The followers of Jesus were shocked and devastated by the arrest of Jesus. Their long-awaited messiah was imprisoned, beaten, and sentenced to death. Jesus is crucified alongside two criminals and finds an unlikely follower. You can watch the video version of this experience here: https://youtu.be/iQoGK7E10W8?si=bJY_IcR_98hUhVSV

Jesus declared, "It is finished." He took his last breath on the cross and His followers scattered in fear not knowing what would come next.

Good Friday wasn't the end of the story. The story of Jesus' followers as well as our story continues as we look toward a greater hope to come.You can watch the video version of this experience here: https://youtu.be/iQoGK7E10W8?si=bJY_IcR_98hUhVSV
