This show is not for tennis balls floating down the gutter of life! This show is for Happy Warriors and Happy Warriors can benefit from being able to foretell the future. This is not prophecy; it is a subset of wisdom. Let your rabbi introduce you to ancient Jewish wisdom's effective techniques for foretelling the future. The secret is in the egg. How South African political turbulence changed the price of chrome. King Charles hatched from the egg that was Queen Elizabeth II. How can we foresee his future. In 1960 America produced more than half of all the cars in the world. Today America produces 9 million cars a year while China builds 27 million cars a year. That is the egg. Can you see what is hatching? That is what this show teaches you to do.

President Clinton assured America no homosexual marriage. He even signed the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996. Yet had you been in possession of the techniques I teach in this show, you would have successfully predicted biological men defeating women in athletics competitions and the spread of transgenderism.

The Southeastern United States, from whence Radical Research is broadcast, has long prided itself on its sundry wrestling traditions. From the bare-chested hectoring of the SoCon to the gator-tangling of Central Florida, southerners approach wrestling with a sense of birthright authority. But today we face a new challenger: taxonomy. The second full-length album by Germany's Disillusion, the forbidding Gloria, is an oil-rubbed beast that slips away from our every attempt to ensnare it with our inadequate classifications. We invite you to tune in to our 96th episode and declare, once and for all, a victor in this battle of equivocation.

In this Real Estate News Brief for the week ending May 13th, 2023... some good news about inflation, how a U.S. debt default might impact housing, and a new Gallup Poll on investor preferences. Hi, I'm Kathy Fettke and this is Real Estate News for Investors. If you like our podcast, please subscribe and leave us a review. Economic News We begin with two inflation reports from this past week. The first was a report on the Consumer Price Index for April. The CPI shows a .4% rise in consumer prices which is a slight increase from the previous month, but it brought the annual rate below 5% for the first time in two years. It hit a high of 9.1% last summer, but is now down to 4.9%. The core rate, which omits food and fuel, was also down .4%, with an annual rate of 5.5%. Shelter prices rose the most, but those prices are slowing down. It's interesting to note that the three-month annualized rate is now at 3.2%. (1) Producer prices are also coming down. The Labor Department reported a .2% increase in the Producer Price Index for April, with an annual rate of 2.3%. The PPI's core rate was also down .2% but the annual rate is a bit higher, at 3.4%. As MarketWatch reports: “Inflation is moderating at the consumer and producer levels. This is adding to market expectations that the Federal Reserve will refrain from raising interest rates further at the next meeting in mid-June.” (2) The Fed's preferred report on inflation, known as the Personal Consumption Expenditure Index or PCE, will play a big role in what the Fed does next. That's coming out at the end of this month. Weekly jobless claims were a surprise on the upside, with 240,000 people filing for benefits. They were 22,000 higher than they were for the previous week. Economists had only expected an increase of 3,000. That's the highest number of claims since October of 2021. The numbers have been steadily rising since January, for a total of 1.81 million continuing claims. Higher numbers indicate a softening of the job market and slower wage growth which the Fed wants to see in its fight against inflation. (3) Mortgage Rates Mortgage rates are still idling in the lower 6% range. Freddie Mac says the 30-year fixed-rate mortgage was down four basis points to 6.35% this last week. The 15-year was down one point to 5.75%. (4) Freddie Mac's chief economist, Sam Khater, says: “A recent sideways trend in mortgage rates is a welcome departure from the record increases of last year.” (5) In other news making headlines… Mortgage Rates Would Skyrocket if U.S. Defaults on Debt As lawmakers haggle over the debt ceiling, there's concern about what would happen if they don't come to an agreement and the government defaults. According to Zillow, it would have a devastating impact on the housing market, with mortgage rates potentially rising to 8.4%. That would increase a typical mortgage payment by 22%. (6) Zillow says if mortgage rates get to the 8% level, existing home sales could fall from April's 4.3 million to around 3.3 million in September. That's a 23% drop. Zillow's senior economist, Jeff Tucker, acknowledges that a default is “unlikely” but if it did happen, he says it would send the housing market into a “deep freeze.” It is hoped that President Joe Biden and Speaker of the House Kevin McCarthy will hammer out a deal by June 1st. In a Bloomberg interview, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said: “There is no satisfactory solution for the U.S. that's good for the economy and financial markets other than Congress acting to raise the debt ceiling.” Fed's Rate Hikes Are Now Hurting the Housing Market Housing economists are not happy about the latest rate hike. The Fed hiked short-term rates another quarter point to a range of 5 to 5.25%. The National Association of Realtors' Lawrence Yun and the National Association of Home Builders' Robert Dietz call it “disappointing.” They say the high rates are freezing loan activity and hurting the economy. (7) They say that consumer prices have been coming down for months and the last rate hike wasn't necessary. Yun says that: “Regional banks are an important source of loans – but they are frozen.” He says: “They are shuffling their balance sheets and figuring out what to do.” Dietz says that higher rates are making it harder for developers to build homes, which are badly needed to boost inventory. He says: “We need to be building more than 1.1 million homes a year to haVe a meaningful impact on the lack of inventory.” Real Estate Still a Top Investment Choice, but Lead is Shrinking A recent Gallup poll shows that real estate is still a top investment choice, but the lead is shrinking. In 2022, 45% of the participants said that real estate is the best long-term investment. This year, that percentage shrank to just 34%. (8) Many consumers have turned to gold, which has now taken second place and pushed stocks into third. Gold was favored by 26% this year, compared to 15% last year. Stocks dropped from 24% last year to 18% this year. Savings accounts, CDs, and bonds are up slightly but they are still in fourth place. Gallup asked some of the participants about crypto, but that has lost its luster with the recent collapse of the FTX crypto exchange, and a decline in crypto prices, especially for bitcoin. Only 4% of Americans are choosing crypto. Last year, it was 8%. That's it for today. Check the show notes for links, and the “Join for Free” button to become a member of RealWealth.

The Federal Reserve Bank recently announced a new instant payment platform called “FedNow,” and it will allow businesses and even individuals of participating banks to send and receive instant payments, 24/7. But is it the “camel's nose in the tent” for a digital dollar? We'll talk about it on this Faith and Finance. Before we get into this discussion of digital currency, it's important to remember Proverbs 15:14. It reads, “The heart of him who has understanding seeks knowledge, but the mouths of fools feed on folly.”The point is, let's not panic about a digital currency that isn't here yet and would have to meet with approval by what is now an often hopelessly divided Congress. The Constitution gives Congress sole power over the currency of the United States. The Federal Reserve has no authority to create currency, digital or otherwise, on its own.WHAT WOULD A DIGITAL DOLLAR LOOK LIKE? Obviously, a digital dollar would be an electronic form of the U.S. dollar. It would be fiat money, as is the current dollar, meaning it's not backed by gold or silver. It would be similar to cryptocurrencies, but with one big difference— it would be regulated and backed by the Federal Reserve.And that's the major concern of many opponents of a digital currency. It would potentially give the Fed unprecedented power over our financial system. Theoretically, all transactions could be monitored unless strict limits are placed on the Fed's ability to snoop and share that information with other agencies.Also, again, in theory, the Fed could use this power to actually shape society, by allowing or restricting certain transactions. So fears of a digital currency are not without some foundation.However, since other countries are moving ahead with digital currencies, some at a rapid pace, it's likely that the U.S. will have a digital dollar— someday. When that might happen is anyone's guess, and it could be years away.You can expect a lot of debate in the House and the Senate before a digital currency is ever approved by those bodies. And you'll have a say in it, too, by contacting your elected representatives, and ultimately, in the voting booth. So again, let's not panic.Now, it's true that last year, the Biden administration charged executive agencies to explore the process of implementing a digital currency, and the Fed is cooperating in that effort. DIGITAL DOLLAR RISKSBut the Central Bank is also warning that there are risks with a digital dollar that could leave customers vulnerable to theft and fraud.Specifically, policymakers and the Fed have listed several requirements for a digital dollar that won't be easy to meet. It must provide benefits to U.S. households, businesses, and the overall economy that exceed its costs and risks.It must also yield those benefits more effectively than our current currency. It should complement— not replace— other forms of money, and it must protect consumer privacy and prevent criminal activity. So at least at this point, the Fed is not exactly a cheerleader for a digital dollar.That should be welcoming news to people who fear the Fed is conspiring to take away their privacy and freedom, but it hasn't stopped opponents of digital currency from calling the FedNow platform “the camel's nose in the tent,” which means once the nose is in, the whole camel's going to be in there soon.Concerns about FedNow— set to launch in July— have spread like wildfire on social media. One example is a tweet by Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, who is a presidential candidate for 2024. He claimed that FedNow itself is a central bank digital currency that will allow the Fed to monitor and restrict people's financial transactions.Kennedy wrote, “The Fed just announced it will introduce its 'FedNow' Central Bank Digital Currency in July. CBDCs grease the slippery slope to financial slavery and political tyranny.”Another Instagram poster wrote, "Better get your money out of banks. CBDC has started, meaning you will wake up one morning and all your US paper dollars will be converted into US digital dollars."Of course, the Fed flatly denies this.Testifying before Congress this month, Fed Chairman Jerome Powell said, “We'll have real-time payments in this country very, very soon.” But he also told lawmakers the Fed is nowhere close to having a digital dollar.So those are the facts about FedNow and a future digital dollar, as we have them today. We hope they clear up some of your questions.On this program, Rob also answers listener questions: Are annuities a wise investment? Would it be wise to take some money out of savings and put it into CDs?Do you have to pay taxes on money from a settlement? Should you take money out of a 401k to pay off debt?

Episode 156: In Conversation with Grant Walters, co-author of “Decades: The Bee Gees in the 1970s” If you follow the podcast on any of the below social media accounts, then you probably know that Brian got heavily into the Bee Gees over the past couple of years, after watching the excellent HBO documentary How Can You Mend a Broken Heart. He has now amassed quite a collection of vinyl records and CDs by the Brothers Gibb, and he's also been eager to read any books about them he can get his hands on. Until recently, such books were hard to find. However, Grant Walters, Andrew Môn Hughes and Mark Crohan have combined their writing talents and their encyclopedic knowledge of the Bee Gees to develop a book series covering the career of the Bee Gees, a decade at a time. The second book in the series, Decades: The Bee Gees in the 1970s, has just recently been released in the UK, and is soon to be released in the US. Brian and Sarah had the great pleasure of talking with Grant Walters about the new book, and they also learned more about Grant and his many talents, how he came to know Andrew and Mark, and how the book series came about. The 1970s was quite a roller coaster of a decade for Barry, Robin and Maurice Gibb, and the discussion addresses such topics as the breakup and re-formation of the Bee Gees; their challenges with songwriting and chart success in the early 1970s; their work with Arif Mardin, and of course, Saturday Night Fever. There's also talk about youngest brother Andy and his career progression during this time, as well as the disco movement in general. It's a fun and informative conversation with a friendly and extremely knowledgeable fellow, on one of the biggest pop acts of all time, so you won't want to miss it!

US Dollar World Reserve Currency: https://realeconomy.rsmus.com/why-the-dollar-remains-the-worlds-reserve-currency/ “Why the dollar remains the world's reserve currency, and will stay that way”...APR. 17, 2023 BY JOSEPH BRUSUELAS We find the recent discussion around the end of the dollar dominance bereft of any linkage to the reality of international finance and understanding of the dollar's role as the anchor of the rules-based order that governs global economics. Economies like China that run surpluses need dollar-based demand from the United States to make up for their own weak consumption and high savings rates. Rather, the recent conversation is stoked by global grievances about the relative disparity of economic power and the dead end in which some economies find themselves.

Two things: Gold as an investment – diversification? Gold as a currency in times of economic collapse. https://awealthofcommonsense.com/2015/07/a-history-of-gold-returns/ Why is gold attractive? Hot button issue... Gold standard...vs. Fiat currency – us versus them. Very political and ideological. Three Options For Owning/Investing In Gold: Physical gold in your home, safety deposit box. How could one use physical gold in an economic collapse https://atlantagoldandcoin.com/how-will-gold-silver-coins-be-used-following-a-monetary-collapse/ Gold and/or Gold Miners ETF in your portfolio. Is it a diversified? How has gold performed? What about bonds? https://awealthofcommonsense.com/2015/07/a-history-of-gold-returns/ Ben Carlson's stance: “My stance on gold has always been that I have no idea what's going to happen with it in the future. No one else does either.” As of 2015...Even after the most recent crash, gold is actually up around 10% per year over the past decade. But it's unlikely many individuals actually participated in this rise unless they held physical gold. The Gold ETF (GLD) only had around $3 billion in assets in 2005. It then grew to nearly $80 billion by the peak in 2011-12, before falling back down to less than $25 billion more recently. Unfortunately, that means many of the bandwagon investors got sucked in very late to the bull market and lost a lot of money in the ensuing crash. Physical Gold in a Self-Directed IRA. Why? Can I own physical gold in my IRA? If you opt for the actual metal, certain criteria apply for it to be held in an IRA. “The precious metal coins or bars must meet IRS fineness standards and must be held by the IRA trustee instead of the IRA owner,” says Moy. “The gold must be stored in an IRS-approved depository.” https://www.investopedia.com/articles/personal-finance/091814/analysis-should-you-get-gold-ira.asp Tax Implications of Gold Coins...28% Physical gold (including the ETF – GLD) is tax as collectible. However, the IRS considers physical quantities of metal to be a “collectible.” For collectibles, such as coins, art and bullion, the standard tax rate is 28%. As a result, owning physical gold, or owning funds that themselves own physical gold, means that you can pay a higher maximum capital gains rate of 28%. https://smartasset.com/taxes/avoid-capital-gains-tax-on-gold#:~:text=This%20is%20called%20the%20capital,a%20general%20rate%20of%2028%25 The Ascent of Money: A Financial History of the World - By Niall Ferguson
We should have catered 4 fried chickens, dry, white toast, & a coke for this Episode as we begin in Blues Brothers style. We discuss the Nate Dog from Element, Tribute show on Feb. 29th, 2004 w/ Failsafe, Disjointed, Wither, Old Major, etc... This was the first show at the Diamond Ballroom where Max had 2 stages inside the venue. One stage would have a band playing, while the 2nd stage was loading on & setting up. Move forward to March for an Infinite Records showcase with Lure & more OKC bands. March 21st, 2004 @ the Diamond Ballroom, Ill Nino, Flaw, 40 Below Summer, & Element80 rolled through OKC on a $400 tour package. We finish with a show at the Coca-Cola Bricktown Event Center, where an artist did not approve of the limosuine provided to take them from the hotel to the venue... There are two ways to handle situations like this.... You can get upset, throw a fit to the promoter until you get what you want or don't get what you want, but by acting like this, you make everyone's day difficult.... or.... you can be cool, be respectful & figure out a solution without being disrespectful to everyone you're working with that day.... Twista & his camp, handled it incorrectly.... So unfortunately, strict curfew rules apply once the show is over. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Stephen Schwartz (stephenschwartz.com) was born in New York City on March 6, 1948. He studied piano and composition at the Juilliard School of Music while in high school and graduated from Carnegie Mellon University in 1968 with a B.F.A. in Drama. Upon coming back to live in New York City, he went to work as an A&R producer for RCA Records, but shortly thereafter began to work in the Broadway theatre. His first major credit was the title song for the play BUTTERFLIES ARE FREE; the song was eventually used in the movie version as well. In 1971, he wrote the music and new lyrics for GODSPELL, for which he won two Grammys among other awards. This was followed by the English texts, in collaboration with Leonard Bernstein, for Bernstein's MASS, which opened the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. The following year, he wrote the music and lyrics for PIPPIN, and two years later, THE MAGIC SHOW. At one point, GODSPELL, PIPPIN and THE MAGIC SHOW were all running on Broadway simultaneously. He next wrote the music and lyrics for THE BAKER'S WIFE, followed by a musical version of Studs Terkel's WORKING, to which he contributed four songs and which he also adapted and directed, winning a Drama Desk Award as best director. He also co-directed the television production, which was presented as part of the PBS “American Playhouse” series. Other work for the musical theatre includes lyrics to RAGS (music by Charles Strouse), music and lyrics for CHILDREN OF EDEN, and two musicals produced overseas, MIT EVENTYR (MY FAIRY TALE) in Denmark and SCHIKANEDER in Austria. He has also written songs for two musicals for young audiences, CAPTAIN LOUIE and MY SON, PINOCCHIO. Compilation revues of his work include SNAPSHOTS and, for Princess Cruise Lines, MAGIC TO DO. For film, he collaborated with composer Alan Menken on the songs for Disney's POCAHONTAS, for which he received two Academy Awards and another Grammy, THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME, and ENCHANTED. He also provided songs for DreamWorks' first animated feature, THE PRINCE OF EGYPT, for which he won another Academy Award for the song “When You Believe.” THE HUNCHBACK OF NOTRE DAME and THE PRINCE OF EGYPT have both been adapted for the stage. Mr. Schwartz's most recent stage musical, WICKED, opened in the fall of 2003 and is currently running on Broadway and in several other productions around the world. He received another Grammy for the cast recording, and in 2008, WICKED reached its 1900th performance on Broadway, making Mr. Schwartz the only songwriter in Broadway history ever to have three shows run more than 1900 performances. His first opera, SEANCE ON A WET AFTERNOON, premiered at Opera Santa Barbara in the fall of 2009 and was subsequently produced by New York City Opera. His frequently-performed choral works include “Testimony”, based on the It Gets Better Project, “Keramos” and part of the “Tyler Clemente Suite.” He has also released two singer/songwriter CDs, RELUCTANT PILGRIM and UNCHARTED TERRITORY. Mr. Schwartz has been awarded a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and inducted into the Theatre Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. In 2015, he received the Isabelle Stevenson Tony Award for his humanitarian and mentorship contributions to the theatre. A book about his career, “Defying Gravity,” has been released by Applause Books. Under the auspices of the ASCAP Foundation, he has been the artistic director of musical theatre workshops in New York and Los Angeles for over twenty years, as well as conducting workshops for aspiring musical theatre writers and performers in countries around the world, including Australia, Germany, Latvia and Kenya. He is also a past President and current Council Member of the Dramatists' Guild.
Been diagnosed with ADHD? Does the diagnosis fit? In other words, based on what you are told about ADHD, is that your experience? If so, are you familiar with sluggish cognitive tempo or its new name, cognitive disengagement syndrome (CDS)? In October 2014, we reported on the discovery of a new disorder. It seems many diagnosed with inattentive ADHD could actually have a different disorder called sluggish cognitive tempo. In this episode of Attention Talk Radio, ADHD and attention coach Jeff Copper (http://www.digcoaching.com) interviews Joey Fredrick (https://www.cincinnatichildrens.org/service/c/adhd). Since our last review of the topic, things have progressed a bit. This episode will update our understanding of CDS, give evidence to validate this newly identified condition, and educate you about the differences between ADHD and CDS to help you better manage your condition if you might actually have something different from ADHD. Attention Talk Radio is the leading site for self-help Internet radio shows focusing on attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and attention deficit disorder, including managing symptoms of ADHD in adults with ADD or adults who have children with ADHD. Attention Talk Radio, hosted by Jeff Copper, attention and ADHD coach, is designed to help adults (particularly those diagnosed with or impacted by attention deficit disorder or its symptoms) in life or business who are stuck, overwhelmed, or frustrated to help them get unstuck and moving forward by opening their minds to pay attention to what works.

May Day arrives with warming sun,A time when spring is newly begun.The world is waking from its sleep,And promises of growth to keep.In celebration of this day,Harp music echoes far away.The strings sing out a joyful tune,And flowers bloom beneath the moon.The harpist plucks each string with care,Their melody fills the air.As dancers twirl in the soft grass,The harp's music does quickly pass.May Day brings a sense of cheer,A time to leave behind all fear.And in the sweet sound of the harp,We find a way to fill our hearts.So let us sing and dance and play,On this bright and joyous day.And may the harp's melody stay,With us as we go on our way.Support the showDonate to Cymber Lily QuinnVenmo: @cymberquinnPayPal: paypal.me/cymberWith more than 35,000 downloads, I've been making beautiful, relaxing harp music for everyone to enjoy.

Coaches will often tell me they struggle to create engagement with their audience. Does that sound familiar? People don't opt in for your lead magnet. Nobody is emailing you with questions. You aren't getting any discovery calls with clients. Does it sometimes feel like you are talking to yourself with nobody on the other end of the line? MORE DIFFICULT On this episode, I want to give you 7 steps to generate more engagement with your audience. I also want to give you 75 Ways to Drive Engagement. It is a free download at http://www.PodcastTalentCoach.com/engage. You might be making the problem more difficult than it needs to be? The solution is easy to understand, yet difficult to execute properly. Through all of my research and years of experience in both radio and podcasting, I've discovered a few key steps to create interaction. We are going to cover 7 steps to create more listener engagement. Some of these steps may sound a little too simplistic. Just remember … don't make it harder than it needs to be. Step back and ask yourself if you are truly executing on each step to the fullest. 1. ASK THEM TO ENGAGE When Oscar came to me for coaching, he had a great podcast. But, he was struggling to get any clients from the show. His podcast is called "Deep Listening – Impact Beyond Words". Oscar helps leaders be better listeners. As I listened to his episodes, it occurred to me that Oscar did a great job interviewing his guests and make them look amazing. However, he never explained what he did or made an invitation for listeners to work with him. We restructured his podcast, and he now uses it to introduce prospective clients to his services and lead them to hiring his consultancy. If you're not getting engagement, you may not be making enough invitations. How do you expect your listeners to know you want them to be part of your show or work with you if you don't ask? Be sure to make your request specific. Tell your listener exactly what you want her to do. If you want engagement, you need to ask for it. 2. MAKE IT EASY TO ENGAGE Your listeners don't want to jump through a lot of hoops to create engagement. I was working with a client earlier this week. He helps leaders and organizations thrive by facing their challenges. His podcast is built around his book with the same content. On his podcast, he would suggest people go to Amazon and search for his book. Unfortunately, there are about six other books with a similar title. If you made a subtle change to the title, you end up with the wrong book. If you have ever searched Amazon for anything, you know how challenging it can be. We added a redirect with his website that takes people straight to the book. Rather than searching for it, people could go straight to a URL and get the book. One step and super easy. When you ask your listeners to connect with you, you might be using social media, your website, e-mail, voicemail, or a number of other methods. Simplify it. Create one contact page on your website containing the info to avoid the need for a laundry list during your show. Then, always provide that one contact source. You can see my contact page at https://podcasttalentcoach.com/contact/. NO CHOICE By using that one page, you also prevent your listener from getting caught in the decision paradox. If a listener is given the choice between multiple options, they don't want to be wrong. So, they make no decision to avoid making a mistake. Only give them one option. Also, make your questions specific, so they don't have to think. Give your listener a question to answer or specific piece of information to provide. My client I just referenced would end his show by telling his listeners to email him if they have any questions. We restructured that to ask a specific question around the topic of the episode. If he was talking about motivating a team, he would invite listeners to reach out with their motivation struggles. This is much more specific. If your listener isn't forced to be creative and "work" to create content for your show, you will have more success creating engagement. 3. BE A STORYTELLER FOR SUCCESS As you create your podcast, become a great storyteller. Great storytellers create fans. One of my favorite podcasts to learn the art of storytelling is Speak Up Storytelling with Matthew Dicks. Matthew is an internation bestselling author. He has been published in many magazines. But best of all, he is a 56-time Moth StorySLAM champion and 9-time GrandSLAM champion. Matthew is hilarious. And his stories are amazing. You can learn a lot about storytelling by listening to his podcast. https://matthewdicks.com/podcasts/ Your podcast cannot survive on information alone. Artificial Intelligence has the information market cornered. You need to separate yourself by using your story and personality. That's how you become unique. Interest in your story never remains constant. Your information can only become entertainment when interest is rising. If interest is falling, the show is becoming boring and is no longer entertainment. A great story continues to develop the plot and raise the interest. Have you ever sat through a long, monotonous story that never seems to end? You stare and wonder if the speaker actually has a point to this monologue. You pray for your cell phone to ring and save you. That scenario is exactly what you want to avoid with your podcast. Practice becoming a great storyteller. Stories help define your character and personality. You should always be yourself. It is difficult to play a character consistently and tell great stories. Your true feelings and identity will always be revealed in the stories you tell. If you are successful hiding your true self, you simply are not telling great stories. Vivid details and interesting points that stir emotions in your listeners can only come from your true feelings. Reveal your true character. Storytellers create raving fans. 4. FOCUS ON HELPING OTHERS Zig Ziglar had many great quotes. One of my favorites is, "You can have anything you want in life just as long as you help enough other people get what they want." How true that is. As you turn your information into engaging entertainment with your podcast, keep in mind that helping people is part of the foundation of a strong relationship. If you take, take, take, your relationship won't last long. If you are there to give and help, you will develop friends for life. Ziglar is a great example of helping people. His speeches always offered great tips to improve your life, sales or attitude. He also had great books, CDs and other products he sold. I'm currently reading "Secrets to Closing the Sale". I had the great fortune of seeing him live before he passed away. His recordings fill my library. He has so much good stuff. However, most of Zig's time was spent on helping others. There is a lot of free Ziglar information available. He would always help others and eventually sales would come his way. Get what you want out of life. Focus on helping others. 5. MAKE IT ABOUT THEM If you want people to engage, there has to be something in it for them. Make them care. Have you ever had a conversation where the other person only talks about themselves? We had a competitor in radio. He attended a lot of the same events we did. Everytime we would run into him, he would always steer the conversation to him. He was the kind of guy that couldn't read a room to save his life. One time we were backstage to meet an artist. There were about 10 of us in the room waiting for the band to come in. We were all standing around making small talk. Finally, the band came in and started their introductions with him. Big handshake and hug as if they were best friends. The band makes their way around the circle and finally get to us. Now, my wife and I had known these guys for years – well over a decade. They know our kids, we know their kids. We were there when one of them started dating his wife, who we knew her before he did. We really go way back. He asks us about our kids. We mention that the last one just graduated high school. He says he can't believe it. It was just yesterday they were this high. You know how time flies. My wife says, ?Yeah, you've seen them grow up. It's crazy. And you're expecting your third child." A big smile comes over his face. Just then, the competitor guy jumps in. "Yeah, we go way back to the club days, remember that? Remember when you played Bob's Country Bunker?" Or whatever the club was. CELEBRATE OTHERS Here was a great time to celebrate this artist and a huge moment in his life of expecting another child. In fact, it wasn't really general knowledge. He was a bit surprised that we knew. My wife has just chatted with his wife about it on Facebook. So instead of making the moment about the guest of honor, radio guy jumps in and makes it all about him. People don't want to hear about you. They want to hear about themselves. Here is a great video about making your message about your audience. This is from BJ Bueno, author of "The Power of Cult Branding". https://cultbranding.com/ceo/mirrors-vs-bullhorns/ This shows the great power of focusing on your listeners and clients rather than focusing on you. 6. TEASE AND SET UP THE NEXT EPISODE Prepare your audience to participate. Let them know the topic for next week. Then, ask them if they have a question about that particular topic. If you have a guest, ask if there is a question they would like you to ask. Michael Hyatt does a great job at this on his podcast. I had a morning show team that would say, "We are interviewing Blake Shelton tomorrow. If you have a question you'd like us to ask him, send it to us." This would create great engagement with the audience. It promoted the interview on the next show. But more importantly, it got the listener invested in the interview. They were part of it. Even if you don't use the question, you still create engagement. You can't use every question. But you can interact with every email. 7. THANK YOUR AUDIENCE Thanks for listening. I appreciate the time and help you give me every week. It is such an easy way to strengthen your relationship with your audience. Your listeners have given you something they can never get back. That is their time. Show your appreciation. A simple thank you will go a long way with your listener. If they know you are honestly grateful for giving you their time, the chance they will listen again goes way up. It must be honest and authentic. You can't thank them like gas station attendant who will never see you again. You must deliver your thanks from the heart. It should be the kind of thank you that you would give a stranger who stopped to help when you ran out of gas. I once saw Michael Buble in concert. Toward the end of his show before his last number, he stopped and addressed the audience. He told us he knows how hard we work for our money. And times are tough. He gets that. Michael then says he couldn't possibly thank us enough for spending some of that hard-earned money to see his show and support his family. His wife and kids at home appreciate it. He appreciates it. And he can't wait to come back and do it all again. He then rolls into "Song For You", which he sings partially acapella. If you have never experienced it, check it out on YouTube. It is amazing. https://youtu.be/uiUz36uWmy0 The most powerful part is Michael's authentic gratitude to his audience. Your listener is your lifeblood. Without your listener you have no show. She has many, many choices when allocating her time. Let her know you appreciate her for spending her time with you. THANKS … And thank you for stopping by. You have done a ton for me just by being here.

Dave Combs is a disarmingly charming southerner, a former telecommunications executive, and a man of faith. He's also a hardcore entrepreneur and one of the most successful musicians and music distributors you've probably never heard of. Since Dave and his friend, studio pianist Gary Prim, recorded their first instrumental tune in 1986 — Rachel's Song — the duo has produced 15 successful instrumental albums which have attracted millions of worldwide fans. Dave displays more than 50,000 fan letters at his home in Winston Salem, North Carolina. The story behind Dave's serendipitous success is fairytale-esq. Not a single mainstream music publisher or distributor would touch Rachel's Song. So Dave turned to a non-conventional route, selling his CDs through gift shops - eventually building a network of more than 1,000 stores. The song proved to be magnetic. Shoppers would hear it playing overhead in a store and just need to buy it. One local shop alone sold thousands of Dave Combs albums. Host and award-winning author Dean Rotbart points out that fueling Dave's serendipity were some savvy business insights — the kind that can help make anyone's bottom line sing.

Grammy Award, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame ~Hits "That Lady" & Chris's Solo Ballad "Still In Love" Start of Our Weekend!!If you are familiar with THE ISLEY BROTHERS, then you know Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee, CHRIS JASPER, an integral member of THE ISLEY BROTHERS during the 1970s and 1980s—their gold and platinum years—from the 3+3 (1973) to Between the Sheets (1983) albums. These were the years when THE ISLEY BROTHERS were a self-produced, self-contained group. If you are familiar with THE ISLEY BROTHERS, then you have heard the music of CHRIS JASPER, who was primarily responsible for writing and producing all of THE ISLEY BROTHERS music during this time, including such beautiful love songs as “For The Love of You” and “Between the Sheets” and uptempo funk such as “Fight the Power.” His arrangements and instrumentation as a classically-trained musician, and his expertise on the keyboards and synthesizers, are the foundation of the legendary “Isley Brothers Sound.” Re-recorded elements of "That Lady" are incorporated in "i", the lead single of Kendrick Lamar's 2015 album To Pimp a Butterfly. The song won the awards for Best Rap Performance and Best Rap Song at the 2015 Grammy Awards.When the six members of THE ISLEY BROTHERS disbanded (1984), Marvin and Ernie Isley joined CHRIS JASPER and formed ISLEY-JASPER-ISLEY. Without this crucial musical component, THE ISLEY BROTHERS were no longer a self-produced, self-contained group. CHRIS JASPER brought his “unique sound” and musical talents to ISLEY-JASPER-ISLEY, and topped the charts singing lead vocals on “Caravan of Love” (1985), a song that was covered by English recording group, the Housemartins, an international #1 pop hit. “Caravan” was also used in commercials as part of a Dodge Caravan advertising campaign. He was also awarded a CEBA Award For Excellence for a Miller Brewing Company commercial. The music for that commercial formed the basis for “Brother to Brother” from the “Different Drummer” album, which supported the anti-apartheid struggle going on in South Africa at that time. His music has also been used in radio and television commercials, most recently “Who's That Lady” (Swiffer) and “Between The Sheets” (L'Oreal). When ISLEY-JASPER-ISLEY disbanded (1987), CHRIS JASPER brought his “unique sound” to his own solo projects, topping the charts with “SuperBad,” a song promoting the value of education. CHRIS JASPER has continued to write songs and produce his own R&B/Gospel music, as well as other artists, for his independent record label, Gold City Records (www.goldcitymusic.com). CHRIS JASPER's music has been covered and sampled by hundreds of new and established recording artists, including Whitney Houston, Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg, Gwen Stefani, Fantasia, Will Smith, Alliyah, Queen Latifah, Notorious B.I.G., Tupac, Natalie Cole, and the list goes on and on. His music has also been used in television and radio commercials. In 1992, CHRIS JASPER, along with the other members of THE ISLEY BROTHERS, was inducted into the ROCK & ROLL HALL OF FAME. Chris Jasper was born in Cincinnati, Ohio on December 30, 1951, the youngest of seven siblings. While growing up in Cincinnati, Chris studied classical piano starting at the age of 7 years old. After graduating from high school in Cincinnati, he moved to New York to study music composition at the Juilliard School of Music. Chris received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in music composition from C.W. Post College in New York, where he studied under noted jazz pianist and composer, Dr. Billy Taylor. He subsequently received a Juris Doctorate degree from Concord University School of Law. THE JASPER/ISLEY CONNECTION The Jasper and Isley families lived in the same apartment complex in Cincinnati, Ohio. Chris's older sister, Elaine, married Rudolph Isley. The three older Isley brothers, Rudolph, O'Kelly and Ronald, formed a vocal trio (“The Isley Brothers”) and relocated to Teaneck, New Jersey. While temporarily living in New Jersey as a teenager, Chris and the two younger Isley brothers, Marvin and Ernie, formed a band, “The Jazzmen Trio”, that played locally in New Jersey. Chris played keyboards, Ernie played guitar and Marvin played the bass. Along with Chris, Ernie and Marvin also attended C.W. Post College in New York. While in college, Chris, Marvin and Ernie played on the older Isley Brothers recordings, including “It's Your Thing”. SOLO CAREER In 1987, Isley-Jasper-Isley disbanded and Chris and Ernie embarked on solo careers. Chris formed his own record label, Gold City Records, and released two albums as a CBS-associated label. His debut single as a solo artist, “Superbad” reached #1 on the R&B charts. Eventually, Marvin and Ernie returned to record under the Isley Brothers group name, and Chris continued his solo career, releasing a total of 9 solo albums to date, including 4 urban contemporary gospel CDs. Chris has also produced a number of artists for his Gold City label, and has worked with such notable artists as Chaka Khan, writing and producing a song for her CK album (“Make It Last”). Chris's music has been covered and sampled by numerous new and established recording artists, including Whitney Houston, Jay-Z, Snoop Dogg, Gwen Stefani, Fantasia, Will Smith, Alliyah, Queen Latifah, Notorious B.I.G., Tupac, Natalie Cole, and the list goes on and on. The most recent addition to Gold City is Chris's son, Michael Jasper, who released his debut album “Addictive” on the Gold City label in 2010 at the age of 16. “Addictive” was written and recorded by Michael, and co-produced by Chris, who accompanies Michael on the talkbox and background vocals. Michael's is called CD "Dreams". Chris has received numerous gold and platinum albums and music industry awards, including the BET lifetime achievement award. In 1992, Chris, along with the other members of The Isley Brothers, was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame. In 2016, Chris was awarded the National R&B Society Lifetime Achievement Award, Songwriters Hall of Fame. Chris also received numerous ASCAP awards.. Chris lives in New York with his wife of 40 years, Margie, and his three sons, Christopher, Nicholas and Michael. - See more at: chrisjasper.com © 2023 Building Abundant Success!!2023 All Rights ReservedJoin Me on ~ iHeart Radio @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23baAmazon ~ https://tinyurl.com/AmzBASAudacy: https://tinyurl.com/BASAud
A native of Hong Kong, Henry Wong has lived in the U.S. since attending high school at St. John's Preparatory School in Minnesota. He attended Penn State University as a Biology major, and worked in a neurology lab at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine. In 1990, his hobby took over, and he founded the trendsetting record store An die Musik in Towson. It was the first in the nation to sell CDs without the long cardboard boxes and the first to establish listening stations for any disc in the store, earning them such attention as an article in Newsweek Magazine. He also established partnerships with organizations that contracted him to sell CDs during their performance, including the BSO and Baltimore Opera Company, and in DC with the Kennedy Center, Blues Alley and many Embassies. In addition, he staged regular CD signings and live performances and refreshments in the retail store.Reacting to changes in the retail music industry, he moved the business to Mt. Vernon in 1997, and added live music presentations under the moniker An Die Musik Live. The venue is an intimate listening room on the second floor of an historic Baltimore townhouse, located in the heart of the Mt. Vernon Cultural District. Voted several times as one of the top 100 jazz venues in the world by Downbeat Magazine, An die Musik Live has presented over 4,500 shows.Long before the current pandemic, Wong has had to innovate and re-engineer the business in response to economic and social challenges, including increased competition by big box retailers, 9/11, music downloading, the housing market bust, and Baltimore's civil unrest. By always operating as part of the community—and in service to musicians—people have rallied around his efforts to remain a vibrant part of Baltimore's arts scene.His latest innovation is adapting his business to live streaming concerts. He has relied on friends, consulted tech industry leaders, and recruited Peabody Institute sound engineering graduate students to create the model and continually improve it. But it's more than just a way to remain open for business—he encourages audience members to add donations to further help the artists. In addition, he has been consulted by other arts organizations who are navigating the same challenges.Image creditCreators & Guests Rob Lee - Host Henry Wong - Guest The Truth In This Art, hosted by Rob Lee, explores contemporary art and cultural preservation through candid conversations with artists, curators, and cultural leaders about their work, creative processes and the thinking that goes into their creativity.

Episode 30 marks the third year anniversary of The Laurel & Hardy Podcast. In today's show, we hear from some of the podcast's loyal supporters about why they love the show so much. The big business in hand, though, is the first part of a two-episode deep dive into Laurel and Hardy's silent masterpiece, Big Business. Patrick discusses the film with regular guest expert Randy Skretvedt, and together they explore the contentious legends surrounding the film's production, such as: were the boys selling Christmas trees in the summertime, and did they trash the wrong house by mistake?? For more information concerning The Laurel & Hardy Podcast, The Laurel & Hardy Magazine and Patrick's forthcoming series of books, starting with Laurel & Hardy: Silents, visit the brand new website at www.laurelandhardyfilms.com To contact Patrick, email theboys@laurelandhardyfilms.com If you'd like to make a point, ask a question, or generally join in the discussions about the podcast and all other things Laurel and Hardy related, why not become an official Blog-Head by joining the Blog-Heads Facebook Group here: https://www.facebook.com/groups/2920310948018755 To purchase CDs of the Beau Hunks Orchestra's music contained in these podcasts, click here: https://amzn.to/2CgeCbK For more information about The Laurel & Hardy Podcast, click here https://laurel-and-hardy-blog.com/ To find the best Laurel and Hardy books and DVDs and Blu-Rays, visit The Laurel & Hardy Podcast's Amazon storefront, click here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/shop/laurelandhardyblog
Welcome to a special edition of the Alpha Exchange, one in which your host and guest are one and the same. Above all, our conversations on this podcast are aimed at helping you think about risk. After all, it was the Spanish philosopher George Santayana who famously said, “those who forget history are doomed to repeat it.”This podcast has three parts. First, an update on a project I've been working on, MacroMinds. I created this foundation back in 2019 to raise funding for causes in the NY area focused on student education. Our “business model” is simple – host a once a year, highly differentiated symposium featuring industry leaders who share their insights on the remarkably complex world of investing. On June 7th in NYC, we are doing just that, and I could not be more excited about our incredible agenda.Second, I review a couple of prices in the world of optionality and what they mean in the context of today's risk dynamics. Specifically, I discuss the fast widening level of CDS written on the US as the reference asset. In the context of the unfolding debt ceiling drama, this instrument is worth keeping an eye on. Next, I review the change in the volatility surface on gold, specifically the emerging bid to upside calls.Lastly, I review some work I did a number of years ago, which I call, simply, “Ten Handy Facts on Vol”. These are characteristics of the behavior of volatility in asset prices and the options that are written on them. I hope you find some value in this exercise and I thank you for listening.
Interest rates for Certificate Accounts have been increasing. Which has many people wonder if this is a good time to lock in the rates. I'm Sharla Jessop, President of Smedley Financial and today we will discuss when to buy or not to buy a CD with my guest and colleague, Jordan Hadfield.
In one of our coolest opportunities to date, we recorded live from the Compact Disc Center in Bethlehem, PA during Record Store Day - a biannual celebration of all things for the vinyl obsessed and supporting local music retailers. Of course there was only one conversation that felt appropriate: best movie soundtracks of all time. We've set a lot of rules for ourselves. We don't cover movie musicals, films from previous episodes, and scores. Most importantly these are our SUPER subjective picks of soundtracks that we owned on vinyls, cassettes, CDs and played to death. Hopefully by the end of the podcast you won't be saying: how could you pick that as a the best movie soundtrack of all time? In the best moment of the episode we get to grab a quick chat with owner of the Compact Disc Center, Mary Radakovitz, asking her to tell us her favorite soundtrack of all time. Special thanks to Ben Youngerman of Molten Metal Media for arranging this awesome opportunity and running our mics for the day. Join us in our first ever on location recording, support Compact Disc Center, and enjoy our trip down the great cinema playlists of all time. Want to follow all things How Could You Podcast?

Upcycle is a verb that means ‘to reuse a product in such a way that elevates its value.' Using the word ‘up' as a prefix, our word of the day is a recent word that is closely related to the verb ‘recycle.' The difference is that upcycling adds value to a recycled product. I'd love to upcycle my roommate's old CDs as coasters. Considering how bad some of the music was, using them to place a beverage on would definitely make them more useful.

Many times we are tempted to feel that we just don't make any difference in the world around us. We wonder if we even matter in the greater scheme of things. David reminds us that the humble will be the ones on whom our Heavenly Father can depend. Psalm 34 is a litany of what our Heavenly Father has in store for those who remain faithful to His plans and purposes. He will not fail us and He never overlooks us. Many times its the insignificant things that actually matter the most in the economy of His Kingdom.
