After a couple of weeks navigating new, busy schedules, milestone events and rescheduled interviews, we're back with a big dose of the Music News. In this episode, we attempt to explain our less-than-consistent release schedule over the last fortnight before checking in on a brand new all Australian digital radio station coming out of... Commercial radio?! Next, we unpack the predictable but disappointing news that the AFL have once again ignored homegrown talent for their Grand Final entertainment, with Snoop Dogg booked to perform at the penultimate fixture this year. All eyes on the NRL now. AI is also back in the news, but this time our own federal government is suggesting we relax copyright laws so big tech can scrape our creative industries. This all coming before Australia enacts a single piece of AI regulation. Expect an earful on this one. Finally, we discuss the epic Rolling Sets lineup for 2025. Save the 6th of December in your calendar for the Central Coast's biggest live music event; and understand that Tweed Heads is now our regional enemy. Cheers.Thanks for listening!

Radio personality Jon Williams opens up about the art of authentic endorsements and his journey from failed baseball aspirations to becoming one of Northwest Arkansas' most recognizable voices. Williams shares how he pioneered a unique business model where he receives no salary from his radio station, instead earning his living entirely through commissions from brand partnerships. What sets Williams apart isn't just his entrepreneurial approach, but his unwavering commitment to exclusivity. While most radio personalities might promote competing businesses on the same day, Williams maintains strict brand category exclusivity. "I won't have competing brands on my show," he explains, creating tremendous value for his 26 partners ranging from local businesses to national giants like Nestlé and Coca-Cola. This exclusivity has fostered remarkable loyalty, with many partners renewing year after year.The turning point in Williams' career came from advice given by the late Cameron Smith, a legendary figure in Northwest Arkansas' business community. "John, you're a brand," Smith told him. "Build your brand. Don't build anyone else's brands, but yours and people that pay you to build theirs." This perspective shift transformed Williams' approach, helping him understand that his greatest asset was authenticity - only endorsing products he actually uses and believes in.Williams also shares his deep connection to Northwest Arkansas, from emceeing charity galas that have raised millions for causes like type 1 diabetes research to his role announcing University of Arkansas sports. Through it all, his philosophy remains steadfast: real value comes from genuine relationships, not just transactions. For anyone looking to build a personal brand or create lasting business partnerships, Williams' journey offers a masterclass in the power of authenticity and strategic exclusivity.
Queensland Rugby League legend Cameron Smith believes Maroons coach Billy Slater will lean towards selecting Broncos star Reece Walsh for the State of Origin decider in Sydney.

Welcome to this bonus episode about Homeless Children's Network (HCN). Malik Parker is the director of the Jabali Substance Use Disorder (SUD) program at HCN. He is originally from Fayetteville, North Carolina, but his mom is from Oakland. He left NC for The Bay the day after he graduated high school in 2011. Cameron Smith is HCN's director of Afrocentric programs. He is from Columbus, Ohio, but has been in SF for more than 10 years now. Cameron came here on a whim; he had a friend who needed a roommate. His first job in The Bay was in San Jose at the YMCA as a basketball ref. He knew then that he wanted to serve, to give back. Cameron shares the origin story of Homeless Children's Network. HCN was founded in 1992 with the intent to serve as a connection between six different shelters in The City. Their CEO today, Dr. April Silas, has been with HCN since the beginning. The idea was that folks experiencing homelessness were transitory, and it would be best if services they received in one shelter followed them. Nowadays, they serve more than 2,500 clients per year. They have around 60 partnerships with other service organizations in The City. Please visit the HCN website for more info. They are currently in the middle of their Jabali awareness campaign, a partnership with the San Francisco Department of Public Health that provides services around the fentanyl crisis. Cameron points to the Black population in The City being about 4–5 percent of the total, while Black folks experiencing fentanyl overdose deaths range from 30 to 40 percent of the overall number in SF. The Jabali campaign aims to bring awareness to treatment as well as warning folks of the dangers of the deadly drug. HCN runs ads on social media and YouTube as well as billboards around town. They aim through these ad campaigns to be as ubiquitous as, say, a Sweet James or Ann Phuong. The goal is to make folks aware of HCN and its services before they might realize they need it. A big part of Malik's job also involves meeting people where they are, bringing those same messages as HCN's ads. He says that this aspect of his role with HCN is perhaps the most rewarding for him. Malik has learned a lot in his time with HCN, including in their work with SFDPH. He's uncovered his own biases, which is part of what he works so hard to help others see. He emphasizes for folks the “us” aspect of it all. He says he relishes the give-and-take of seminars, the things he hears people say to one another. When I mention the United Playaz motto, “It takes the hood to save the hood,” we go on a bit of a sidebar about communities looking internally to solve their own issues. HCN has workforce development programs, and I ask whether anyone who's been through their programs has come back to work with them. That has indeed happened. Then our conversation shifts to ways that The City has adopted a “tough on crime” approach in the last couple of years to several areas that HCN deals with (see the recall of Chesa Boudin and shift rightward of our Board of Supervisors, among other signs). No one in the room the day we recorded agrees with that approach. We end this bonus episode with ways that you can get involved with HCN, whether it's donating, volunteering, attending a seminar, or something else. Please visit HCN's website to learn more.

The traditional "five things" major preview returns as Andy Johnson is joined by legendary golf writer Jaime Diaz to discuss the 2025 Masters. Jaime and Andy begin this episode by chatting about the current state of golf media and highlights from Jaime's past work at Sports Illustrated. From there, the 2025 Masters preview begins with the two diving into the top storylines of Scottie Scheffler and Rory McIlroy entering this week's tournament. They discuss expectations for Scheffler following a slow start to 2025 and the important historical context of McIlroy's week ahead given his strong play so far this season. Andy and Jaime then debate whether any LIV players will make an impact at Augusta National this year, discussing the current state of Brooks Koepka, Cameron Smith, Bryson DeChambeau, and Jon Rahm. The two highlight other players to watch at ANGC such as Akshay Bhatia, Jordan Spieth, and Ludvig Åberg. To wrap things up, Andy and Jaime discuss the best players to never win a Masters before making their picks to win the 89th playing of the tournament.
