Podcasts about Big Five

Admit it: if you're a fan of classical music—or even just a regular concertgoer—you might have glanced at the title of this episode and done a double take. The Dvořák Violin Concerto? Not the Cello Concerto? One of the things I love about my job as a conductor—and my side gig as a podcast host—is bringing audiences and listeners like you pieces you may never have heard before, even if they're by extremely well-known composers. Don't get me wrong, I love the blockbusters. But there's a special thrill in introducing someone to something new. Now, some of you might already be big fans of the Dvořák Violin Concerto. But in my experience, it's relatively unknown compared to Dvořák's more famous works. I've never performed it myself, and I've only heard it live once. It's not part of most touring soloists' repertoire, and it's just one of those pieces that rarely comes up—especially compared to the Cello Concerto, which I think I've conducted at least once every season since becoming a conductor. This concerto came about much like the Brahms Violin Concerto, the Brahms Double Concerto we talked about a couple of weeks ago, and so many other great 19th-century works: inspired by the sound of Joseph Joachim's violin. Joachim was the great violinist of the 19th century and had been a friend and supporter of Dvořák for many years. Dvořák ended up dedicating the concerto to Joachim, writing: "I dedicate this work to the great Maestro Jos. Joachim, with the deepest respect, Ant. Dvořák." Sadly—and for reasons that remain somewhat unclear—Joachim never performed the piece. That may be one of the reasons it's never achieved the popularity it deserves. Today, in this Patreon-sponsored episode, we'll dive into the concerto, exploring its unusual form, the myriad challenges it poses for the violinist, and perhaps some reasons why it's not part of the so-called “Big Five” violin concertos—even though it probably deserves to be.

De Nederlandse krijgsmacht is bezig met een flinke inhaalslag. Maar om ook in de toekomst onze belangen te verdedigen, moet het leger anticiperen op toekomstige dreigingen.

The Big Five Project returns to cover one of the worst PPVs of all time, King of the Ring 1995. Seriously, this is an event that kind of makes WrestleMania IX look good by comparison. Vince McMahon had all the elements in place to make this an event to remember. Well, it was an event to remember for all the wrong reasons. The bracket for the King of the Ring tournament was pretty solid. But bad matches and even worse booking decisions led us to the crowning of....King Mabel? Oh, and if that was not bad enough, Vince threw Bret "Hitman" Hart, the best wrestler in the company, into a meaningless Kiss My Foot match with Jerry "The King" Lawler. The fact that match was one of the better matches on the card tells you so much of what you need to know, and we have not event talked about the Main Event pitting the WWF Champion Diesel, and his tag team partner, Bam Bam Bigelow, against Sycho Sid and Tatanka in a match that redefined the word meaningless. If you are asking why....well you are not the only ones as we asked ourselves the same question over and over during this PPV that really epitomizes just how rough things were in WWF during the first half of 1995. Rob returns to the show and joins Dave, DJ, and PC Tunney to cover it all for you here, so you don't have to watch it yourself. You can thank us later.

Het kostte niet één, maar twee stemrondes voordat Friedrich Merz door de Duitse Bondsdag werd verkozen tot bondskanselier. Bijzonder, want voor het eerst sinds de Tweede Wereldoorlog werd een beoogd bondskanselier weggestemd. Wie stemde er in eerste instantie tegen Merz? Wat zegt die tegenstand over het mandaat dat hij nu heeft. Kortom: hoe beschadigd staat Merz nu aan de aftrap van zijn bondskanselierschap?

#602: Ever looked back at an old Facebook post and cringed? According to Olga Khazan, staff writer at The Atlantic, that discomfort is evidence of something powerful: your personality has changed, even if you didn't notice it happening. In our latest episode, Khazan, who recently wrote a book on the science of personality change, breaks down how our personalities aren't fixed traits but flexible characteristics we can intentionally shift to achieve our goals. The conversation centers on the "Big Five" personality traits — Openness, Conscientiousness, Extraversion, Agreeableness and Neuroticism (OCEAN) — and how they impact financial success and career advancement. If you work a regular 9-to-5, personality development can boost your career trajectory. Khazan highlights that conscientiousness — being organized, timely and detail-oriented — directly correlates with workplace success.  She suggests decluttering both your physical space and your commitments to increase productivity.  For introverts navigating office politics, she recommends "cosplaying as an extrovert" by signing up for regular group activities that are hard to back out of. Over time, social interactions become less draining, creating more opportunities for advancement.  And when engaging with colleagues, focus on asking meaningful questions about their experiences rather than collecting basic facts — this builds genuine connections that can lead to promotions and new opportunities. If you're intimidated by new financial ventures like entrepreneurship or real estate investing, Khazan suggests learning from others who've succeeded in similar situations. Research shows you're more likely to implement strategies when you learn them from peers rather than experts.  When discussing successful entrepreneurs, Khazan reveals they typically share three key traits: high extraversion (energy for interacting with others), low agreeableness (ability to make tough decisions), and low neuroticism (emotional stability for risk-taking).  Think Steve Jobs — not always the nicest person, but his combination of vision, decisiveness and comfort with risk built one of the world's most valuable companies. The most important takeaway? Never tell yourself you can't do something because "that's just not who you are." Instead, take small daily steps toward your goal, and you'll gradually develop the personality traits needed for success.

500K people are confiding in an AI alien—and it's on track to generate $4M this year.It's called a Tolan: an animated AI character that can talk to you like your best friend. The company behind it, Portola, has 4x'd their ARR in the last month from viral growth on TikTok and Instagram. Tolan isn't just a hyper-growth startup—they're also exploring AI as a completely new creative tool, and storytelling medium. Their goal is to help their users go from overwhelmed to grounded, and it's working. Today, on AI & I, I sit down with two of the minds behind Tolans:My good friend Quinten Farmer, Portola's cofounder and CEO, and Eliot Peper, their head of story and a best-selling science fiction novelist. We get into:How to build AI personalities users love. During user onboarding, the team gathers information—through a light-touch personality quiz—and then uses frameworks like the Big Five and Myers-Briggs to shape a Tolan that mirrors the user; like an older sibling might. The aim is to create someone who feels familiar enough to be safe, but different enough to be interesting.Why AI characters are “improv actors”. Rather than scripting detailed prompts, the team trains Tolans to improvise—inspired by Keith Johnstone's book Impro, where he talks about building strong narratives through free association and recombination.How “memory” is critical to developing compelling characters. Tolans develop their personalities through “situations”: small narrative setups (a memory, a joke, an embarrassing moment) the Tolan reacts to, remembers, and gradually weaves into its character; accumulating into something that feels like a real lived experience.Why response time is everything for voice AI interactions. A Tolan has at most two seconds to curate the right context about a user and deliver a reply that feels genuine—the team has found that even half a second slower can break the user's immersive interaction with the AI.The future of AI as a totally new creative medium. New technologies bring about new formats and new mediums. AI creates the opportunity for creatives to tell completely new kinds of stories—if they're brave enough to try it.“White mirror” technologies that make you feel more like yourself. Amid concerns that tech drives polarization and isolation, Tolan offers a counterexample: a tool designed to make the best of what humanity knows about being a flourishing individual available on demand. The company's north star is helping users go from feeling overwhelmed to feeling grounded.This is a must-watch for anyone exploring AI as a creative medium—or curious about the future of human-AI relationships.If you found this episode interesting, please like, subscribe, comment, and share! Want even more?Sign up for Every to unlock our ultimate guide to prompting ChatGPT here: https://every.ck.page/ultimate-guide-to-prompting-chatgpt.

In this compelling clip of Market Mondays, host Troy Millings sits down with guest Ian Dunlap to dive deep into the intriguing question: Is Grok3AI the threat we once perceived Deep Seek to be? As technological advancements and market dynamics evolve, this engaging conversation unlocks the potential implications of Grok3AI on the global tech landscape.The dialogue kicks off with Troy sharing an intriguing question he received over the weekend about Grok. After spending time exploring Grok's platform, Troy is taken aback by its capabilities, prompting a broader discussion on Grok's potential, especially when juxtaposed with tech giants like Starlink, Tesla, and Neuralink. Amid playful exchanges and humorous moments, the serious undertone of evaluating Grok's place in neocolonialism becomes evident.Ian Dunlap weighs in with his insights, emphasizing the speed and efficiency with which Grok3AI has been developed. Created in November 2023, its rapid development contrasts with the years of work behind established names like OpenAI and Gemini. Ian argues that Grok's accelerated pace, combined with Elon Musk's willingness to invest and compete fiercely, positions Grok3AI as a significant threat. Although it may not possess the established brand recognition of OpenAI, its functionality, performance, and the available capital behind it mark it as a formidable player in the AI space.As the discussion unfolds, Troy acknowledges Elon Musk's achievements, despite the criticisms, highlighting how Grok's success story mirrors that of a startup succeeding rapidly in the competitive automotive industry. Troy also sheds light on the potential geopolitical implications of this technological race. The Big Four or Big Five tech companies in China, with advancements like these, could potentially surpass Western markets, underscoring the importance of staying ahead in AI developments.Finally, the clip touches upon the brewing tensions between Microsoft and OpenAI, hinting at organizational challenges amidst the technological breakthroughs.Join Market Mondays as Troy Millings and Ian Dunlap offer a rich analysis of Grok3AI's position in the tech hierarchy, the competitive drive behind its rapid advance, and what it signifies for future market trends. Whether you're an investor, tech enthusiast, or casual observer, this conversation sheds light on the dynamically shifting world of artificial intelligence and its global ramifications.Hashtags: #Grok3AI #MarketMondays #AIRevolution #TechIndustryInsights #ElonMusk #OpenAI #DeepSeek #TroyMillings #IanDunlap #AICompetition #GlobalMarkets #TechDisruptionSupport this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/marketmondays/donationsAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
