Podcasts about CDS

Im vergangenen September, am 16. ganz genau, wäre er 100 Jahre alt geworden: B.B.King. Vater und Mutter waren Farmpächter, er selbst Traktorfahrer, wurde zum König des Blues, mit unzähligen Schallplatten und CDs, 1957 die erste, 2008 die letzte, insgesamt 43. Geboren in einem Weiher namens Berclair, Mississippi, aufgewachsen in Indianola, Mississippi, ging er 1946 nach Memphis, Tennessee, arbeitete als DJ, war Teil der Blues-Szene der Beale Street (dem Vergnügungsviertel der Afro-Amerikaner), machte Aufnahmen bei Sun-Record und wurde ein Freund von Elvis. King steht für eine Musik aus einer Gegend, die man Delta nennt, Mississippi Delta. Wir sind in Memphis, in einem seiner Clubs, dem "B.B.King's Blues Club", unsere Reise geht nach Indianola, wo es seit einigen Jahren das "B.B.King Museum and Delta Interpretive Center" gibt, und wir lernen eine seiner Töchter kennen, die, mit ihrem Vater auf Tour, an ein paar Orte in Deutschland erinnert. Eine Zeitreise, eine Zeitgeschichte somit, eine Geschichte des einzigen Blues-Musikers, der, im Zusammenhang mit der Geschichte der Südstaaten, sein eigenes Museum hat. Und dort auch begraben liegt.

Money can so easily capture our hearts. It promises security, comfort, and control—but often leaves us anxious and striving for more. Yet when we give, something remarkable happens. We're declaring our dependence on God, not our bank accounts.Dr. Art Rainer—founder of the Institute for Christian Financial Health and author of Money in the Light of Eternity: What the Bible Says about Your Financial Purpose—joined us recently to explore how generosity becomes an act of trust that transforms our hearts and deepens our faith.Money Reveals the HeartLarry Burkett often said, “Every spending decision is a spiritual decision.” Dr. Rainer agrees.“Jesus said, Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also,” Art explained. “The Bible makes it clear—money management reflects heart management.”Scripture contains over 2,000 verses about money and possessions. Why? Because few things so clearly reveal what—or whom—we truly trust. For believers, the central question is this: Do we believe God's promises about provision, and are we willing to surrender this area of life to Him?Giving as an Act of TrustDr. Rainer describes giving as a tangible expression of faith. “God doesn't tell us to give and then leave us hanging,” he said. “He ties promises to generosity.”Those promises fall into three beautiful truths—God will provide, multiply, and enrich.1. God Promises to ProvideIn Malachi 3:10, the Lord declares:“Bring all the tithes into the storehouse so there will be enough food in my Temple. If you do, I will open the windows of heaven for you and pour out a blessing so great you won't have enough room to take it in. Try it! Put me to the test!”“God invites us to trust Him,” Art said. “He promises to pour out an abundance of blessings—not necessarily material wealth, but blessings that can be spiritual, relational, or emotional. Maybe it's the contentment you've been chasing for years, or the joy of being part of something far greater than yourself.”2. God Promises to MultiplyIn John 6, a young boy offers his five loaves and two fish to Jesus—hardly enough to feed five thousand hungry people. Yet Christ multiplies that small gift until everyone is satisfied, with twelve baskets left over.“Many of us feel like that boy,” Art said. “We look at our meager resources and wonder, What difference can this make? But God is a God of multiplication. He can take whatever you give and expand it to accomplish His purposes. That's His promise—but it requires trust.”3. God Promises to EnrichWho doesn't love a good return on investment—or ROI? “God does too,” Art said.In 2 Corinthians 9:11, Paul writes, “You will be enriched in every way so that you can always be generous.”“God gives so that we can give,” Art continued. “He blesses so that we can bless others. He's looking for conduits of generosity—people through whom His blessings can flow. When we live that way, generosity becomes not just a habit, but a way of life.”Trusting God With Your MoneyAs Dr. Rainer summed it up:“Generosity is an act of trust. It shifts our hearts from reliance on ourselves and money to reliance on God. If you're a Christian, you've already trusted Him with your soul. It's time to trust Him with your money.”When we give generously, we're not losing—we're investing in eternity. We're saying, “Lord, I believe You are my provider.” And that's one of the clearest ways to live out genuine faith.Learn more about Dr. Art Rainer's work at ChristianMoneySolutions.com.On Today's Program, Rob Answers Listener Questions:I'm 69 with no debt and considering a whole life insurance policy—$100,000 with premiums for 10 years—to leave tax-free money to my children. I already have a term policy that ends at 75. I also have $28,000 in an underperforming annuity with no surrender charge, and was advised to do a 1035 exchange into a new annuity at 4.65% for seven years. I've also invested in CDs at 4% and am considering high-yield savings accounts. What's the best strategy moving forward?My in-laws are around 80 and have fully matured savings bonds. When they used some for home upgrades, they faced a large tax bill. Is there any way to move or reinvest those bonds to delay or avoid taxes—perhaps into an IRA or Roth IRA?I manage finances for someone receiving annual settlement payments until 2036. He wants to create a trust now to support three families, but his lawyer recommends keeping the money in savings while he's alive. The payer says a trust can be set up after his death. Should he establish the trust now or wait?I'm debt-free and have my cash in a high-yield savings account, but rates are dropping. Should I invest some of it or find another way to protect and manage my money?Resources Mentioned:Faithful Steward: FaithFi's Quarterly Magazine (Become a FaithFi Partner)Money in the Light of Eternity: What the Bible Says about Your Financial Purpose by Dr. Art RainerThe Institute for Christian Financial HealthChristian Money SolutionsWise Women Managing Money: Expert Advice on Debt, Wealth, Budgeting, and More by Miriam Neff and Valerie Neff Hogan, JD. Christian Community Credit Union (CCCU)GainbridgeWisdom Over Wealth: 12 Lessons from Ecclesiastes on MoneyLook At The Sparrows: A 21-Day Devotional on Financial Fear and AnxietyRich Toward God: A Study on the Parable of the Rich FoolFind a Certified Kingdom Advisor (CKA)FaithFi App Remember, you can call in to ask your questions every workday at (800) 525-7000.

“Childhood passions aren't distractions—they're the early whispers of the soul.”“童年的热爱，不是浪费时间，而是灵魂的启蒙。”When I was little, I loved spending time playing with my neighbors or school friends. One of my greatest passions back then was collecting stickers. At school, exchanging sticker books became almost like a “social ritual.” During our short ten-minute breaks, we would quickly swap our sticker books and pick out our favorite stickers to trade. If someone liked one of my stickers but didn't have anything I wanted, I would even “name a price” and sell it to her. That tiny act of buying and selling unexpectedly taught me the joy of making a deal. Looking back, maybe that was the first time I felt like a little entrepreneur—discovering how fun trading could be.小时候，我最喜欢跟邻居或学校的朋友一起玩。我当时最热衷的一个兴趣，就是收集贴纸。在学校，交换贴纸簿几乎是一种“社交仪式”。短短的10分钟下课时间，我们会迅速交换贴纸簿，挑出想要的贴纸来交换。如果有同学喜欢我的贴纸，但她的贴纸簿里没有我喜欢的，我还会“开价”卖给她。这个小小的买卖过程，竟然让我体会到交易的乐趣。现在回想，那大概是我第一次感受到当“小小创业家”的成就感——原来买卖可以这么好玩！Because my dad was always busy working, he tended to give me a bit more pocket money, perhaps out of a sense of compensation. To me, that money felt like an adventure passport. Every summer vacation brought me pure excitement because it meant two whole months of freedom. I spent nearly every day at Tom's World arcade and the small theme park next to it. I was always playing Whac-A-Mole, riding the pirate ship, or dropping from the free-fall ride just to feel that rush of adrenaline. The atmosphere was filled with electronic game sounds, children's laughter, and the tiny sense of achievement after winning a game.因为爸爸工作很忙，也许是补偿心理，他常常给我比较多零用钱。对当时的我来说，零用钱就像是冒险的通行证。每到暑假我都超兴奋，因为那代表两个月的完全自由。我几乎天天报到汤姆熊游乐场，以及旁边的小型主题乐园。我不是疯狂打地鼠，就是坐上海盗船和自由落体，感受心跳加速的刺激。耳边充满了游戏机的电子音、小孩的欢笑声，还有每次赢得游戏后那种微小而满足的成就感。I also enjoyed going alone to rent videotapes and then curling up at home watching Japanese cartoons and dramas. I had a little habit: once I started a show, I had to finish it in one go, or my heart felt unsettled. Because of that, I often stayed up all night—but knowing that I didn't need to go to school the next day made everything feel deliciously liberating.除了游乐场，我也很爱一个人去租录影带，回家窝着看日本卡通或日剧。我有个小习惯：只要开始追剧，就一定要一口气看完，不然心里不踏实。因此我经常熬夜到天亮，但想到隔天不用上学，心里就觉得特别自由，仿佛拥有全世界。Looking back, my childhood free time was filled with boundless curiosity and passion. Whenever something interested me, I could devote myself to it for hours—sometimes repeating it dozens of times without ever getting bored. For a period of time, I was deeply obsessed with Western and Japanese music. I loved buying my favorite CDs and concert videotapes. My favorite boy band was Boyzone, and I watched their concert video more than forty times before I finally pressed the stop button.回头看，我的童年空闲时光充满了无拘无束的探索与热情。只要遇到感兴趣的事情，我可以全心投入好几个小时，甚至重复做几十遍也不会腻。有段时间我深深迷上西洋和日本音乐，特别爱买CD和演唱会录影带。我最喜欢的男子团体是 Boyzone，他们的演唱会录影带我大概看了超过 40 次才舍得按暂停。That love unexpectedly sparked my self-taught English journey. I would study the lyrics carefully, look up unfamiliar words with an electronic dictionary, and write them onto vocabulary cards I carried everywhere. I memorized them repeatedly on the bus to school. Without realizing it, I had collected quite a strong set of English vocabulary. When I found out that Boyzone was coming to Taipei for a concert, I almost jumped with excitement and begged my dad to let me go to Taipei for it. That concert not only let me meet my idols but also gave me my first-ever solo airplane experience—I was only seventeen.也正是这份热爱，意外开启了我自学英文的旅程。我会研究歌词，用电子词典查生字，再抄到单字卡上，带着上学路上反覆背诵。在不知不觉中，我累积了一大堆英文单字。有一次知道 Boyzone 要来台北开演唱会，我兴奋到差点跳起来，立刻央求爸爸让我去台北。那次演唱会不只让我见到偶像，也让我第一次独自搭飞机——当时我才 17 岁。Now, when I look back, those seemingly ordinary childhood moments were actually full of infinite possibilities. Every small passion and every little discovery became a shining fragment on the path of my growth.现在回想，那些看似平凡的童年时光，其实充满了无限可能。每一个小小的兴趣、每一次探索，都是我成长路上闪闪发亮的珍贵片段。我的网站：flywithlily.com

In this episode of Nurturing Financial Freedom, we explore the bold claim that retirees should hold nothing but stocks forever. Sparked by a recent Wall Street Journal article by Jason Zweig, the conversation centers around whether an all-equity portfolio is a sound retirement strategy, or just good theory that breaks down in the real world. We tackle the academic study Zweig references, which analyzed over a century of data across 39 countries, concluding that bonds have historically underperformed and added minimal diversification. At first glance, that makes a compelling case for stocks-only portfolios, even in retirement.But as we point out, average returns over a hundred years don't capture the emotional and practical realities retirees face. Markets move in cycles, and people's risk tolerance changes over time—especially when they stop contributing and start drawing income in retirement. When volatility hits, a paper loss becomes a real-life stressor, and if the timing is bad enough, it can ruin a retirement plan. The study fails to account for the psychological impact of watching your nest egg drop 30–40%, which often leads investors to panic and sell low. We emphasize that bonds, CDs, and cash aren't exciting, but they serve a critical purpose: they provide liquidity and peace of mind during market downturns.We share examples of possible outcomes for people who retired just before the 2008 crash—and how balanced portfolios helped them weather the storm while all-stock portfolios struggled. Those who were all-in on stocks or fled to cash at the wrong time are still trying to catch up—or never did. We also run a hypothetical example from 1999 to 2024 showing how a 60/40 split outperformed both a pure stock and pure bond strategy over 25 years, with regular withdrawals. The math alone doesn't capture the full picture. Sequence of returns risk is real, and so is the need for flexibility.Ultimately, we conclude that the best plan isn't the one with the highest theoretical return—it's the one you can stick with. A diversified portfolio might not always win in terms of raw numbers, but it gives you the best chance to live the life you want in retirement, regardless of market conditions. For us, true financial freedom comes from consistency, flexibility, and balance—not gambling on perfect market timing.You can always email Alex and Ed at info@birchrunfinancial.com or give them a call at 484-395-2190.Or visit them on the web at https://www.birchrunfinancial.com/Alex and Ed's Book: Mastering The Money Mind: https://www.amazon.com/Mastering-Money-Mind-Thinking-Personal/dp/1544530536 Any opinions are those of Ed Lambert Alex Cabot, financial advisors, RJFS, and Jon Gay, and not necessarily those of RJFS or Raymond James.

From certificate worship to critical thinking: Why your education ends where real success begins - and the daily habit that separates achievers from dreamers. In this transformative episode of Konnected Minds, Aisini Aman returns with unfiltered wisdom that demolishes the certificate-chasing mentality keeping young Africans trapped in employment fantasies. With his signature mystical positivity, he exposes a fundamental truth: the education system deliberately limits your thinking to keep you seeking jobs instead of creating value. The conversation cuts deep into the emotional warfare of entrepreneurship - dealing with people who chop your money, navigating daily problems that threaten to derail your vision, and the principle of never deviating from core truth. Aman reveals why sticking to intrinsic values like honesty, compassion, and work ethic matters more than any material gain, and why nations that sacrifice human value for wealth eventually destroy themselves with guns and knives. He challenges the colonial ideology that not everyone can be an entrepreneur, pointing to the graduate sitting at home with village land perfect for cassava farming. "Entrepreneurship is solving problems," he declares, "there's nothing magical about it." The episode exposes how physical colonization extended into knowledge colonization, making Africans believe their own innovations are worthless while chasing validation from New York and London. Critical revelations include: • Why your certificate is not proof of education - the resource you produce is • The topology principle: the further you move from core truth, the less successful you become • Why there's a difference between having money and having joy, value, and fulfillment • How stealing from others is actually stealing from yourself - a principle of wealth creation • The daily habit that guarantees long-term success: knowledge acquisition every day • Why Ghanaian musicians gain traction from home, not abroad - your roots are your strength • The religion test: does it promote love, truth, and justice, or financial ignorance disguised as faith? • Why God giving everyone talent means everyone can be somebody From watching YouTube videos to buying CDs before the internet era, Aman demonstrates that continuous learning is non-negotiable for success. He dismantles the lie that some people must remain poor to serve the rich, revealing how robots and machines can handle dignity-stripping work while humans focus on innovation. The conversation reaches its peak with a provocative question about leadership: do those in power not know the truth, or do they know but deliberately keep people confused? Aman's answer cuts through the confusion: "You cannot really have the truth and teach lies. If your teaching is right, why are the people confused? Why are they begging for visas to jump out?" This isn't motivation - it's a systematic breakdown of the design systems that bring results. From financial principles to entrepreneurship frameworks to the anthropology of truth, Aman provides clarity of thought as the true form of success. He challenges the ideology that keeps Africans creating content for international audiences who barely watch, when the real traction comes from home. The episode concludes with wisdom about daily habits: knowledge acquisition through reading, searching, watching, and learning - the compound interest of personal development that transforms dreamers into achievers. This is the unfiltered truth about why clarity, core values, and continuous learning matter more than certificates, why your roots are your strength, and why the treasure of creation is human value that must never be sacrificed for material gain.

Jeremy Au outlines why founders must choose a single 10x advantage and commit to it. He explains how products win by being better or faster or cheaper than the status quo and why unfair advantages are required to defend that lead. He also highlights the Southeast Asian invention of the USB thumb drive as a case where a first mover delivered a better experience but still lost when fast followers and scale overtook them. 01:00 Spotify provides 10x better quality: Unlimited access to any song in any order is a better experience than CDs or using Napster or Kazaa. 04:45 Uber creates a 10x faster experience: Seeing when a car will arrive removes waiting uncertainty and feels much faster than waving for taxis or calling for bookings. 06:00 SpaceX wins by being 10x cheaper: The cost of sending one kilogram to space dropped from about 30,000 dollars to about 500 dollars and continues to fall. 09:00 Six unfair advantages that protect a 10x lead: Startups defend their position through first mover advantage, network effects, economies of scale, intellectual property, regulatory protection, and scarce expert teams. These moats determine whether a company can keep its 10x advantage as competitors enter. 14:00 Thumb drive first mover but lost advantage: Henn Tan, founder of Trek 2000 and creator of the USB thumb drive, built a better file transfer experience but lost his lead because patents were not enforced globally, fast followers copied cheaply, and competitors gained scale and network effects.

In the REAL Mixtape era of the early to mid 90s there were songs you only heard on Mixtapes, and without the Internet, most only heard from trading tapes/CDs or riding around with friends, wanted to point out some.

In today's episode, I was planning to start a new action figure project - attempting to turn a Rocketeer figurine that I found on eBay in to an articulated action figure.  A number of years ago, my brother encouraged me to use the social media platform Blue Sky as an alternative to Twitter/X.  I did make a profile and processed to do nothing with it other than do what I often do when I find a new platform - I start looking for Rocketeer stuff.  One of the first things I posted was the discovery of a Rocketeer theme gashapon set that was available in Japan.  Gashapon are little toys or souvenirs you can buy in plastic capsules from vending machines.  These sorts of things were all over the place in the 80s, though what you got there was of generally pretty low quality.  Still, the idea of a little toy in a capsule stuck with me long enough to inspire me to want to make little resin figurines of Logan and Aurora from The Thirteenth Hour.  Their diminutive size was no surprise!  There is also something alluring about the fact toys like this comes from a machine and that you don't exactly know what you will get.  The more common US equivalent - the blind bag / box concept - is essentially the same thing with more expense and less flair (no machine involved).I was able to find a set of all the Rocketeer gashapon via a retailer in Hong Kong, I believe, which was cheaper.  My favorite piece of the set was a GI Joe sized figurine of Cliff about to take off to chase the zeppelin:Go to https://13thhr.wordpress.com/2025/11/17/the-thirteenth-hour-podcast-536-and-like-a-hood-ornament-83-starting-a-new-rocketeer-resin-casting-project-and-making-a-new-rocketeer-theme/ for pictures.I remember thinking at the time - wouldn't this make a good articulated figure?  And the idea never really went away.  So I've decided to try first to make a duplicate of the figure that I can cut up and modify.  The figure does split in half, so in these pictures, I have planned some vents in places I thought might not fill.And that was going to be this week's episode ... but the silicone I had bought for the project turned out to be bad (one bottle leaked and the other was solid).So I pivoted midway back to music and decided to make a Rocketeer marching tune for the Rocketeer 8bit style game I have been making.  I tapped out the tune initially on the keyboard and then made the track itself on Bandlab.   You can hear the track towards the end of the episode.  It's not quite done, but it's pretty much what I was looking for to accompany the flying / running parts of the game.I have been fortunate to have been on a few podcasts lately - both about the process of becoming an author, starting a podcast, making toys, making music, etc.  This clip from the Planet Texas Podcast on toymaking is pretty much what we were talking about above.  You can listen/watch the whole conversation over on Youtube.   Thanks, Javier, for having me on!I was also on Let's Talk Media with Vedant Akhauri for another fun conversation.  Check out the episode on Spotify.  Thanks, Vedant, for having me on!∞∞∞∞∞∞∞Once Upon a Dream, the second Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, is now out in digital form and on CD!   It is out on most major streaming services such as Bandcamp, Spotify, and YouTube Music.  (If you have no preference, I recommend Bandcamp since there is a bonus track there and you will eventually be able to find tapes and special editions of the album there as well.)  The CDs are out now!-Check out the pixelart music videos that are out so far from the album:-->Logan's Sunrise Workout: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7SM1RgsLiM-->Forward: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9VgILr1TDc-->Nightsky Stargazing: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2S0p3jKRTBo-->Aurora's Rainy Day Mix: https://youtu.be/zwqPmypBysk

Send us a textJohn McFee formed San Francisco-based band Clover in the '60s. Their first, self-titled album on Fantasy came out in 1970. Several years later, they came to realize some key people in the UK pub rock scene were big fans of their music. Nick Lowe, Brinsley Schwarz and also drummer Pete Thomas, who called Clover to see if they would audition for the up and coming Declan MacManus, who would soon change his name to Elvis Costello. Clover got the gig, backing Elvis on My Aim is True and John McFee's great guitar work is what you hear on all the classic tracks like “Alison” and “The Angels Wanna Wear My Red Shoes”. John also played steel guitar on Van Morrison's Tupelo Honey and St. Dominic's Preview. The long list of artists he's contributed guitar, pedal steel and vocals for includes Carlene Carter, Nick Lowe, Emmylou Harris, The Grateful Dead, and Boz Scaggs. In '79, John McFee was asked to join The Doobie Brothers, replacing Jeff Baxter. He also formed Southern Pacific with Keith Knudsen of the Doobies and Stu Cook of Creedence. In the '90s that trio became Jackdawg. The release of their fantastic self-titled album was delayed due to the death of their manager. A CD release was temporarily available in 2009, but the album was out-of-print for years. That is, until now.

Schon mit ihrer ersten E-Mail-Adresse nannte sich runo plum Rockstar. Nun kommt sie der kindlichen Manifestation einen Schritt näher: die Musikerin aus Minnesota veröffentlicht ihr Debütalbum «patching». «patching» beheimatet süsse Folk-Song über eine bittere Trennung. Die Umstände? Eher kompliziert: Die Herzschmerzsongs nahm runo plum mit ihrer jetzigen Partnerin auf. Das Ex-Gspusi spielt nun aber wieder in der aktuellen Bandformation. Wie man das emotional aushält? Gar nicht so schwierig, meinte runo plum im Sounds!-Interview. «patching» ist das aktuelle Sounds! Album der Woche. Wir verlosen täglich CDs - nur live im Radio.

Don fields a full slate of listener questions on everything from SGOV vs. high-yield savings accounts to the differences between AVUV and DFSV, why international stocks belong in a portfolio (but shouldn't dominate it), and whether equal-weighted funds solve the “Magnificent 7” concentration problem. He digs into target-date and bond-fund suitability for short-term money, clarifies what “rules-based” really means for Avantis and Dimensional, and gently deflates misconceptions about long-term international outperformance. Along the way he riffs on talk radio's decline, teases Tom's dad jokes, and reinforces the core message: diversify, know your time horizons, and don't overthink what good academic research already tells us. 0:04 Don opens Q&A Friday and reflects on radio's slow fade 2:20 SGOV vs. high-yield savings accounts for emergency cash 5:13 Why AVUV and DFSV only overlap ~40% despite similar factors 8:43 Which fund is “wilder”: AVUV vs. DFA small value 9:54 Why international stocks belong in a portfolio—but not overweighted 11:41 Long-term U.S. vs. international return history 14:51 S&P 500 concentration and equal-weight ETF considerations 18:44 Equal-weight vs. small-value tilt vs. rules-based funds 20:07 Where to put 2–3 year money: savings, CDs, BND, or a near-dated target-date fund? 23:13 Better language than “active”: rules-based vs. systematic Learn more about your ad choices.

This is a tax on Americans. So if you love CDs, remember that the prices will go up. So please support those higher priced CDs. But there is an option for those who don't want to buy CDs and for those who want a better alternative for the environment. It's the Album Pin. Album Pins are lapel pins themed to a particular album. You get a digital download of the album. Then you can wear your album. All of my latest Album Pins are wood - burned and locally produced. This makes them better for the environment. And they are fun and fashionable.

In this episode on Certificates of Deposit (CDs) as investments, we talk about the nuanced decision-making involved in purchasing CDs and whether or not CDs are good investments, particularly in a rising interest rate environment, and we explain why interest rates are the only factor you need to consider. Wealth creation isn't solely dependent on CD rates, and we need to consider the impact of inflation and interest rates to gain a comprehensive financial perspective. The episode also explores how government strategies to combat inflation by adjusting interest rates impact not only investors, but also shape the attractiveness of CDs as an investment option. In a rising interest rate environment, buying CDs may seem like a good idea but it depends on your needs and goals. Wealth isn't created by buying a CD based on a rate. It's created by understanding why the rate may not be all that important. Banks look at what is known as the federal funds rate, also known as a benchmark rate. This is the rate banks charge one another to borrow money overnight that's needed to maintain reserve requirements. Upstream in the decision making process is the Federal Open Market Committee or FOMC, who meet throughout the year to discuss and set monetary policy. Within these policies, rates are set and typically linked to inflation. When those rates are set, banks may adjust rates on loans, deposits and certificates of deposit. But just like any business, banks will adjust rates to compete in their market as they seek to cover their costs and maintain a profit. CDs specifically are an attractive tool for banks, because unlike a deposit account, CDs actually lock up customers with a maturity date, which gives banks better control of their cash flow. The higher rates draw in customers seeking to maximize their returns. Rates on CDs matter, but not as much when you factor in inflation and interest rates. If inflation is at 7% and interest rates are at 5%, the net is 2%. The same is true if inflation is at 0% and interest rates are at 2%. You have to look at both numbers to get a full picture. When you consider the gridlock within the housing market and the amount of debt our government holds, it's hard to believe rates can remain elevated over the long term. The government is desperately trying to combat inflation by raising rates. These higher rates not only impact consumers, but they also impact the government. According to the Congressional Budget Office, or CBO, in June of 2023, they projected that annual net interest costs on the federal debt would total $663 billion in 2023 and almost double over the next decade. Interest payments would total around $71 trillion over the next 30 years, taking up to 35% of all federal revenue by 2053. These numbers are impacted by interest rates and with lower rates come lower interest payments, so the government has reasons to see rates lower than they currently are. The question is: Does it make sense to lock in CD rates while rates are high? It depends. If you have money sitting in a bank account that you don't need and the CD rate is offering a higher rate than your savings, then it might be a good option. A good idea is to compare CD rates to other options like fixed annuities and money markets since they share some similarities but also have a few key differences that could make one choice better for your situation. Certificates of Deposit are offered by banks as a savings account that offers a fixed interest rate over a specified period of time, ranging from one month up to five years. They carry penalties if funds are removed before maturity, and they're FDIC insured up to $250,000. Fixed Rate annuities are issued by insurance companies and are financial products that offer a fixed interest rate over a specified period of time. Early withdrawals can incur a penalty, and interest earnings are tax deferred until you start taking distributions. The guarantees are backed by the claims paying ability of the insurance company and are insured by what is known as the State Guarantee Association. Money markets are funds issued by financial institutions that are backed by highly liquid short maturity investments. Maturities usually range from overnight to just under a year, and assets can be quickly converted to cash with minimal loss of value. They are generally considered more risky than a bank, CD or insurance company annuity, and the underlying investments include such things as treasury bills, commercial paper and CDs. While CDs offer the safety of fixed returns, they are not devoid of risks and limitations. It's essential to understand both the micro and macro economic factors that affect CD rates before diving in.      Mentioned in this episode: BrianSkrobonja.com Common Sense Financial Podcast on YouTube  Common Sense Financial Podcast on Spotify BrianSkrobonja.com/Resources - Free Resources To Help You Protect Your Financial Future Common Sense: YOUR Guide to Making Smart Choices with YOUR Money by Brian Skrobonja "What to Know About How Banks Work" The State Guaranty Association   References for this episode: https://www.pbs.org/newshour/economy/americans-faith-in-banks-hit-low-after-failures-says-ap-norc-poll https://www.federalreserve.gov/monetarypolicy/reservereq.htm https://fortune.com/recommends/banking/will-cd-rates-go-up https://www.usbank.com/investing/financial-perspectives/market-news/federal-reserve-tapering-asset-purchases.html https://www.pgpf.org/analysis/2023/07/higher-interest-rates-will-raise-interest-costs-on-the-national-debt   Investing involves risk, including the potential loss of principal.

In today's episode, I'm speaking with fantasy author and podcaster Richie Billing about his novel, Together We Rise. We had a great conversation about writing, the creative process, fantasy worlds, and even the use of generative AI in music.  Together We Rise is a multilayered story of a revolution that takes place in a fantasy world - maybe the equivalent of something that might have occurred in the 1700s in Europe - there are some factories and all the issues that go with those, but science and other aspects of technology are still in a more medieval age.  The story is told from multiple different characters, each with a small role to play in how the revolution takes place, and sometimes the characters overlap, allowing you to see them from fresh eyes, since each chapter is essentially a different point of view.  Together We Rise wastes no time getting you in the thick of the action!  Richie also used the AI tool Udio to create a theme for each character which you can listen to at the start of each chapter while reading that sets the tone for the pages ahead.  You can find all the tracks here on Soundcloud and Youtube. If you are a writer yourself, please check out Richie's podcast, The Fantasy Writer's Toolshed, which has a wealth of information to help you get started, stay inspired, and fine tune your craft!Learn more about Richie's work on:-Patreon-Facebook-Instagram-Buy Together We Rise on Amazon and other booksellers.Thanks, Richie, for being a guest on the show, and thanks for listening!∞∞∞∞∞∞∞Once Upon a Dream, the second Thirteenth Hour soundtrack, is now out in digital form and on CD!   It is out on most major streaming services such as Bandcamp, Spotify, and YouTube Music.  (If you have no preference, I recommend Bandcamp since there is a bonus track there and you will eventually be able to find tapes and special editions of the album there as well.)  The CDs are out now!-Check out the pixelart music videos that are out so far from the album:-->Logan's Sunrise Workout: www.youtube.com/watch?v=K7SM1RgsLiM-->Forward: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z9VgILr1TDc-->Nightsky Stargazing: www.youtube.com/watch?v=2S0p3jKRTBo-->Aurora's Rainy Day Mix: https://youtu.be/zwqPmypBysk∞∞∞∞∞∞∞∞ Signup for the mailing list for a free special edition podcast, a demo copy of The Thirteenth Hour, and access to retro 80s soundtrack!Like what you see or hear?

This song evokes praise with all our heart, soul and body ~ with all of creation, with all instruments, with all aspects of who we are. Indeed, praise includes what brings us pleasure, joy and delight ~ something we don't often sing about in hymns, and yet which are such an important aspect of living as fully and vibrantly as God intends. Set to the Scottish tune with Irish words, this paraphrase maintains some of the original language in the refrain of the song ‘Happy are We All Together.'Continue your reflections with the accompanying journal, which includes further questions for reflection and some invitations to prayer and practice.Paid subscribers receive a free journal PDF, or you can purchase a paperback versionVisit the Celtic Psalms website for scores/books, mp3s, CDs, and videos for May We RiseFind out more about the Habits for the Spirit course: an 8-week online course exploring habits and daily spiritual practices to promote wellbeing in body, mind, and spiritFollow Kiran's monthly reflections on Bless My FeetPsalms for the Spirit is a reader-supported publication.

Join us for an episode rich with historical perspective, practical artistry, and love for the choral tradition.

In a world in crisis, we're not listening to each other, not listening to the larger world in which we live. Yet listening is key to solving the very crises humanity faces. >>> LISTEN NOW! @ www.ConsciousSHIFTNow.comREGISTER at www.ConsciousSHIFTShow.com(IT'S FREE)[Receive Show Details + Access to GIFT > Genius Guide + Audio] Julie Ann explores with her ConsciousSHIFT Show guest Dr. Mike Edwards, global climate change adviser, author of Soundscapes of Life, & world-class didgeridoo player, how listening to the "soundscapes" of life can help us restore peace in a turbulent world. Soundscapes encompass the auditory frequencies of the human and more-than-human natural worlds that surround us, influence us, and impact us internally and externally.Mike is Chief Listening Officer (CLO) at Sound Matters and co-founder of Innerdigenous, a movement dedicated to helping people reconnect with themselves and nature for personal and planetary healing. He holds a PhD in the links between climate change and human security. Mike has over 25 years' experience as a sustainability consultant and climate change advisor. He was appointed global Climate Change Advisor to The Elders Foundation, where he provided expert advice to the likes of UN SEC GENERAL Kofi Annan and President Jimmy Carter. His career began with research on climate change in the Southwest Pacific. His early work was cited by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and explored "ecocolonialism," or how powerful interests manipulate climate discourse. He lived in Australia for 11 years while he completed his PhD, where he also learned how to play the didgeridoo - a hollow tube of eucalyptus that produces mesmerizing earthy tones and natural rhythms. Mike is also a musician and is considered one of the world's most accomplished didgeridoo players having performed at festivals around the world and released four CDs to international acclaim. Since completing his PhD, Mike has dedicated himself to music and teaching. Over the past 17 years, he also has roamed the world playing didgeridoo and teaching people why it is crucial to love nature. Now lives & teaches in the UK. His new book, ‘Soundscapes of Life', which explores a new theory and practice of listening - Integral Listening (IL) - is due for publication in 2025. Join Julie Ann and Mike to discover how sound shapes our understanding of place and presence, and how deep listening to each other and the world around us just might save the very world we live in.

In part one of this latest episode on Vinyl Community Podcasts, host David Bianco from the Safe & Sound Texas Audio Excursion YouTube channel sits down for a unique and insightful conversation with Don MacInnis, owner of the legendary vinyl pressing plant Record Technology Incorporated (RTI). For decades, RTI has been considered one of the gold standards in audiophile-grade vinyl manufacturing, producing records for labels like Mobile Fidelity Sound Lab, Blue Note, Analogue Productions, and countless independent artists who are committed to exceptional sound. What started as a three-day temp agency assignment in 1983, leading to Don and his wife purchasing the company from founder Bill Bauer in March 1992, has culminated in a life spent crafting and honing some of the signature sounds in your very record collection.  David and Don dive deep into the craft of vinyl production—from the technical challenges of plating and pressing to the everyday decisions that determine whether a record becomes a treasured listening experience or one that misses the mark. Don shares stories from the early days of RTI, including how the company grew during the original heyday of vinyl, weathered the rise of CDs, and ultimately found renewed purpose during the modern vinyl resurgence. David's thoughtful questions and genuine passion for analog sound make this conversation both accessible and deeply educational. Whether you're a seasoned vinyl enthusiast, a newcomer curious about what makes audiophile pressings special, or simply fascinated by the intersection of art and manufacturing, this episode provides a rich and engaging look at one of the most respected names in the industry. A must-listen for anyone who believes music should be felt as much as heard.

Episode Description:In this heartfelt continuation of The Chronicles of the Mystery Girl, Coach Bryan takes listeners back to the late 1990s — a time of change, challenge, and youthful discovery. Picking up where Act One left off, he revisits the moment that first encounter with the mysterious young woman changed everything. But as the memories unfold, life continues to move — from his family's struggles and small victories to the soundtracks that defined a generation.Journey with Coach Bryan through the ups and downs of adolescence: from gospel CDs that brought comfort during tough times, to road trips with friends, and the excitement of summer youth camp. Along the way, a new spark ignites when a chance seatmate on the bus—Girl B—turns an ordinary trip into an unforgettable story of connection, innocence, and first love.But even as new emotions stir, the thought of the mystery girl refuses to fade. As Act Two closes, a question lingers: will she return once more, this time in Zanesville?

Morning thunderstorm recorded inside a Buick — this falls into our annual and hopefully distracting series for Election Days or any other news you're trying to avoid. Checkout last year and the year before for more.And every year I also force the theme of “October Rain” — harkening to Use Your Illusion I, the yellow cover. In 1991 I asked Santa Claus for Use Your Illusion II, the blue cover. Which I wrote clearly on the wishlist my parents handed me in early December — we knew Santa wasn't real but our youngest was still in the dark on that. On the wishlist I wrote “Guns N' Roses, Use Your Illusion, ‘blue cover.' And underlined blue a bunch of times to be sure. I wanted the mayhem of “You Could Be Mine” to power me through January in military school.We were still in the age of the longbox format, the early 90s. A time when the mall music store clerks were still very serious and important people. And I'm not talking the drifter *** record store employee cliches I could heap upon you like a Flintstone rib. Yes let's the envision vinyl salesperson still holding on to the seventies cursing this modern capalistic nightmare over a spinning plate — and they would be smoking Acapulco Gold and spinning The Raincoats, thumbing their hair behind their ears. I got news for you hippy, wait until 2025… where y'all are sorta experiencing a rebirth of popularity for your product, so never mind. Mall music stores in the 80s and early 90s felt important, before the Applebees enshittification of modern franchise decor — throw a bunch of **** on the walls with red lights everywhere and call it a day. For me Applebees franchise decor peaked in the late 90s with a restaurant called Bugaboo Creek who programmed the enshitifcation on the walls to talk at patrons. And yet it still endures…).The music stores of yore were sterile white and felt like a NoMad dispensary. Clerks dressed in company outfits, black pants and some muted coral shirt with collar. Something an HR department screw might wear while laboring on the Island of Dr Moreau. The CDs popped out of slots in the walls in long cardboard boxes with beautiful artwork matching the cover of whichever album — the wasteful yet coveted longbox format era… ( I so want to pay too much money for the Paula Abdul Shut Up and Dance longbox, it's gorgeous). Anyway, Santa Claus brought me the yellow cover, Use Your Illusion I — ********… In the end I think Use your Illusion I is the superior Use Your Illusion so maybe the figment was doing me a favor. Ok, so after writing all of the above I realized the name of the song is “November Rain;” still Use Your Illusion I, yellow cover. And I know what you're thinking — why didn't I clean up the “October Rain” bit and just start as “Every year I force the theme to fit ‘November Rain…?'” This is a bit, isn't it? I've triggered the part of your brain that wants to compose a “well actually” email. And for what? A long jaunt across vintage music stores and a ***** talking deer on the wall? Look, something tells me you need to be reading this, you need a few extra paragraphs that aren't hosted by some stiff in a suit staring at you from a faraway TV studio. Or posts authored by ****** Ms. Johnson. The neighbor you friended on Facebook because she insisted, and now your feed is full of her bad advice and weird AI cats. And truth be told I realized my error after finishing my episode cover design and I didn't feel like redoing it.

In this episode of Prisoners of Rock and Roll, we're reliving the one hit wonders of the 1990s. This was a defining decade for us because it's when we graduated high school and college, and we spent a lot of it slinging CDs in a record store, back when your local mall had record stores. Music was literally in the background all the time, whether we were watching MTV, sitting in our rooms rocking out, cranking it up while driving our first cars, or helping customers find the cassette single of Macarena or Zoot Suit Riot.  We put together a playlist of over 135 one hit wonders from the 90s. There's no way we'll get to them all, but we've got alternative rock from Blind Melon, Blur, the Flys, Local H, Ben Folds Five, Dishwalla, and more. The two single greatest hip hop songs of all time in the Humpty Dance and Baby Got Back. Singer songwriters like Eagle Eye Cherry, Duncan Sheik, and Jill Sobule.  Nu metal, dance music, and all of that weird, quirky stuff like swing music, Right Said Fred, Haddaway, and more.  We're going to talk about songs you haven't thought of in years and some you wish you never heard again. All you Gen Xers are gonna want to pay attention to this one. Let's hit it! Episode Playlist Check out our episode playlist ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠h⁠ere⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠.

It started like any normal night in a quiet London flat — until things began to vanish. First, small items: CDs, jewelry, trinkets. Then, the cold certainty that something unseen was moving between rooms. When one flatmate screamed in terror, the truth revealed itself — a Victorian woman in full 19th-century dress, standing silently behind her.   The spirit of the lady looked directly at her — holding open a book with a secret letter inside, pleading for someone to find it. When morning came, a hollow wall revealed what might have been the ghost's lost fireplace… and her final message. Meanwhile, across the ocean in rural Kentucky, two brothers fishing at night discovered something monstrous lurking in the trees — a massive, brown-furred creature that stalked their home and knocked in rhythmic threes. It wasn't a bear. It wasn't human. And when they threw a Bible at it, the thing fled on two legs. From the haunted parlors of London to the dark woods of Appalachia, these are real encounters that defy explanation — ghosts, cryptids, and the shadows between. #ghoststory #haunting #realghoststories #bigfoot #cryptid #paranormal #hauntedhouse #victorianghost #apparition #scarytales #supernatural #realghoststoriesonline Love real ghost stories?

A sacred plant, a living coastline, and a cello that sings in two voices—Sweetgrass brings them together with uncommon clarity. The Cello Sherpa Podcast Host, Joel Dallow, sits down with composer Dawn Avery and cellist Wilhelmina Smith to share how a pandemic idea turned into an immersive album where Mohawk language, indigenous song forms, and contemporary classical textures breathe the same air. Dawn traces her journey from conservatory training to a compositional practice grounded in Mohawk heritage, storytelling, and soundscapes that fold in blues, meditative space, and rock energy. Wilhelmina reflects on early breakthroughs at Curtis, a life-shaping stint in George Crumb's experimental lab, and the chamber instincts that make her a natural collaborator. Together they unpack the title track's symbolism—sweetgrass as strength and tenderness—and the craft behind multitracking cello lines that anticipate each other's rubato, merging voice and instrument into a single, human pulse. We go inside key works, including We Enter Together and Decolonization, a gripping solo journey that threads a healing song, a women's stomp dance, blues gestures, and a Hendrix-tinted national anthem to reframe what “American music” can hold. The conversation widens into a practical guide for making records today: funding with grants and community programs, choosing the right hall and producer, navigating label partnerships, owning your masters, and prioritizing digital releases when physical CDs gather dust. At heart, this is about why artists still record: to plant repertoire for younger players, to carry culture forward with respect, and to keep curiosity at the center of the craft. If you care about new music, indigenous voices, recording workflows, or the evolving music industry, this story offers both inspiration and a roadmap.
