Instagram https://chirpradio.org/blog/chicago-sounds-vinto-van-goBioCHICAGO, IL – Psychedelic soul outfit Vinto Van Go is bringing the summer heat withtheir new single “Hot Pants Boots,” a vibrant, groove-heavy track that sets the stage fortheir upcoming album In the Neon Wilderness, out July 4.“It became a party right there in the studio,” says the band's frontman and lyricist.“Everybody chirping in little bits... the whole construction of the song was so fun.” Builtcollaboratively, the track captures the band's spontaneous, celebratory energy andreflects their deep roots in Chicago's psych-rock and soul scene.Described as “the best band at your local bar” and “the ultimate party band,” Vinto VanGo has carved out a distinct space in the city's live music community. Their sounddraws from the gospel-soaked soul traditions of Chicago's past while pushing forwardwith layers of distortion, reverb, and psychedelic texture. “I love psychedelic musicbecause it pulls the audience into the music. You're not an observer anymore. You'reinside it.”“Hot Pants Boots” has already become a live staple. “When we play it live, peopleimmediately start dancing and cheering. Some of them are even dressing up for it,” theband shares. “We played a private Pride party last weekend, and the crowd showed upin hot pants and boots, knowing we were going to play that song. That's the dream.”Vinto Van Go formed during the pandemic, when longtime collaborators and friendsused the pause in touring to experiment together in the studio. Each member brings aunique voice to the group. Ann brings theatricality and character to every vocalperformance. Jon, a bassist from Manhattan who studied under jazz legend Ron Carter,guides the groove with precision. Jason anchors the outfit with sharp, intuitivedrumming. Kevin, the band's keyboardist and recording engineer, blends his Afrobeatexperience into every arrangement. “We all know what to do and when to leave spacefor each other,” the frontman says. “You can hear that clearly in ‘Hot Pants Boots.'”In the Neon Wilderness is the band's second album, written and recorded entirely in thepast year. Their debut album dropped in April 2024 and helped solidify their status asone of Chicago's most exciting live acts. With local indie radio and fans alike rallyingbehind them, the group has developed a loyal following that's spreading beyond the city.“We've got a scene here. If you go to a Vinto Van Go show, you're going to run into atleast 50 people you love seeing. That kind of community is rare.”As they gear up for their album release and upcoming gigs, including a show in NewYork later this month, Vinto Van Go is keeping it simple.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

Are you ready to revolutionize your design business's digital marketing strategy? The landscape is changing rapidly, and staying ahead means embracing sophisticated tactics that your competition hasn't mastered yet.Jason dives deep into three game-changing marketing approaches that are reshaping how successful designers connect with clients in 2025. First, discover the critical differences between traditional SEO and AI search optimization – and why most designers are missing this crucial distinction. Learn the exact process for creating content that AI tools actually favor, including the specific formatting techniques that make your expertise discoverable when potential clients ask questions through ChatGPT and similar platforms.The conversation then shifts to a surprising take on influencer marketing that doesn't require celebrity partnerships or massive follower counts. Instead, Jason reveals how to leverage local influence and manufacturer relationships to build credibility that resonates deeply with your target audience. This approach taps into existing trust networks that high-end design clients already value, creating powerful endorsements that feel authentic rather than promotional.Finally, get the behind-the-scenes truth about paid advertising that most marketing agencies won't tell you. Beyond simply creating attractive ads, Jason explains the systematic monitoring and optimization process that prevents wasted budgets and declining returns. These practical insights help designers avoid the common pitfalls that make many small businesses abandon advertising altogether.Ready to implement all ten advanced marketing tactics for 2025?

This Isn't Therapy... it's a frank discussion about the "attention economy"—where companies compete to capture our focus to sell us products. We break down the difference between attention, focus, and concentration, and examine how the constant battle for our attention impacts our mental health, productivity, and relationships.

Episode 2.22Introducing the Teleological ArgumentIs the fine-tuning of the universe the result of necessity, randomness, or intelligent design?In this first episode of our new series, we explore the teleological argument—the idea that purpose, order, and complexity in the universe point to a Designer. We trace the argument's roots from Aquinas and Paley to modern thinkers like Dembski, Behe, Gonzalez, and Hugh Ross. Along the way, we define key concepts like specified complexity and irreducible complexity, and contrast them with evolutionary and naturalistic explanations.Whether you're a skeptic or believer, philosopher or layperson, this episode lays the foundation for a robust, layered discussion of one of the most compelling arguments for the existence of God.Find our videocast here: https://youtu.be/kG7l4EWu-LAMerch here: https://take-2-podcast.printify.me/Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/reakt-music/deep-stoneLicense code: 2QZOZ2YHZ5UTE7C8Find more Take 2 Theology content at http://www.take2theology.com
In this eye-opening conversation, Matt Edmundson chats with Jordan West about the transformative potential of TikTok Shop for e-commerce brands of all sizes. Jordan reveals how TikTok Shop has fundamentally changed affiliate marketing for e-commerce by incentivising creators to sell products rather than simply promote them.Unlike traditional influencer marketing where brands struggle to get meaningful content from product seeding, TikTok Shop creates a system where creators are motivated to produce multiple pieces of content for each sample they receive. Jordan shares how his agency helped a major shoe brand go from zero searches on TikTok to 800,000 searches in just two weeks, demonstrating TikTok Shop's power as a demand generation channel.The conversation explores the stark differences between TikTok affiliate marketing and traditional approaches, with Jordan explaining that smaller creators (even those with fewer than 10,000 followers) can generate significant sales when properly motivated. His 80/20 approach to creator sampling provides a practical framework for brands looking to maximise their return on investment when engaging TikTok creators.I wonder if the most valuable insight might be how TikTok content can be repurposed across platforms, while other platforms' content rarely works well on TikTok?Expert Insights from Jordan WestJordan West is the founder of Social Commerce Club, an agency specialising in TikTok Shop strategies for e-commerce brands. With extensive experience running his own apparel and accessory brands, Jordan brings practical insights into demand generation for challenging product categories.His "crawl, walk, run" approach to TikTok Shop has helped major brands like a "billion-dollar shoe company" tap into entirely new audiences, while his frameworks for creator engagement have proven effective for businesses of all sizes.Jordan's podcast "Secrets to Scaling Your E-commerce Brand" recently hit one million downloads, and he's launching a new initiative called E-commerce OS to help smaller brands solve critical business challenges.Key Takeaways1. TikTok Shop as demand generation: Unlike Amazon (demand capture), TikTok Shop excels at creating demand for products through its content-driven algorithm.2. Creator incentives matter: TikTok creators are motivated to sell products, not just showcase them, making them more like salespeople than traditional influencers.3. The 80/20 sampling approach: For every 100 samples sent to creators, expect 20 to produce meaningful results, and 4 of those to potentially drive significant sales.4. Content repurposing advantage: TikTok content can be effectively repurposed across all other platforms, while content from other platforms rarely performs well on TikTok.5. Size doesn't matter: Creators with relatively small followings can drive significant sales when they create compelling content that resonates with viewers.6. Persistence beats perfection: Successful TikTok Shop strategies require continuous testing and learning, with a willingness to embrace failure as part of the process.For more information on how to leverage TikTok Shop for your e-commerce brand, visit our website and check out Jordan's resources at Social Commerce Club.ResourcesGuest & CompanyJordan's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordan-west-marketer/Social Commerce Club: https://socialcommerceclub.com/Secrets of Scaling Your eCommerce Brand Podcast:
Academia de los Nocturnos 4x39 Esta noche tenemos el honor de volver a recibir a Jesús Callejo, con quien hablaremos de su nuevo y fascinante libro: "El gabinete de las maravillas y los misterios: los 101 objetos más asombrosos de la España insólita", ilustrado por Marcos Carrasco, con prólogo de Álvaro Anula y editado por Almuzara. Una obra que, como explica Jesús, busca poner en valor las historias pequeñas de objetos que conllevan una leyenda y tradición, algunos ocultos y otros no tanto, pero que nos conectan con nuestro pasado, rituales y fiestas populares. ¿Conocéis la “Barbie romana” de Tarraco? Es una muñeca articulada de marfil datada entre el siglo III y IV d.C.. Fue encontrada en la necrópolis de Tarraco y pertenecía a una niña de clase alta, lo que se deduce por el material (marfil) y su característica articulada. La muñeca fue enterrada con la niña, sugiriendo que servía como un "useptis" o compañera para el viaje al más allá, ya que los romanos eran muy supersticiosos y creían en la vida después de la muerte. Este es solo uno de los 101 objetos fascinantes y misteriosos que Jesús Callejo ha investigado y plasmado en su libro, ofreciendo un recorrido sorprendente por la España más misteriosa y llena de curiosidades que, como él dice, busca contagiar ese asombro e interés. Y Javier Resines nos trae su "Caminando entre Monstruos," en el que esta semana nos hablará del Saetón, una enigmática criatura de la criptozoología española descrita como una serpiente enorme, venenosa y con capacidad de volar e hipnotizar. Nos hablará de numerosos avistamientos y encuentros a lo largo de los siglos. Sed bienvenidos y bienvenidas.

What's the Best Podcast Hosting Platform? Pinterest SEO Expert, Favour Obasi-ike, MBA, MS breaks it ALL down in this episode from Hosting, Distributing, to Monetization opportunities.Podcast Foundations: A Creator's GuideThis Clubhouse audio session focuses on podcast hosting platforms and their distinction from podcast directories.Favour, an experienced 6-year SEO podcaster, emphasizes the importance of choosing an IAB (Interactive Advertising Bureau) certified platform for those looking to monetize and scale their podcast, while noting that free platforms like Spotify for Creators are suitable for hobbyists. The discussion also covers various podcast styles, episode types, and crucial SEO strategies like optimizing show notes and verbalizing keywords for better search engine visibility. Ultimately, the speaker advises listeners to prioritize impact over budget and consistency in content creation.What is the fundamental difference between a podcast hosting platform and a podcast directory?A podcast hosting platform is where producers upload, store, and manage their podcast audio files. It serves as the "home" for your podcast, similar to how a website host stores your website files. From this platform, you distribute your content. In contrast, a podcast directory is a consumer-facing platform where listeners find and access podcasts. Examples include Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube, Castbox, and Amazon Music. These directories pull information (like your RSS feed) from your hosting platform to display your episodes to a wider audience. Therefore, the hosting platform is for the creator to manage and distribute, while the directory is for the listener to discover and consume.Why is it crucial for a podcast hosting platform to be IAB certified?IAB (Interactive Advertising Bureau) certification is vital for podcast hosting platforms, especially if the creator intends to monetize and scale their podcast. The IAB sets industry standards for metrics like downloads and listener behavior, providing a reliable and trusted framework for advertisers and businesses to assess a podcast's reach and engagement. Without IAB certification, a podcast might struggle to attract serious advertising revenue or prove its audience data, limiting its potential for growth and commercial viability. This certification signifies adherence to industry best practices and provides a level of trust and authority in the digital advertising landscape.What is an RSS feed and why is it important for podcasts?An RSS (Really Simple Syndication) feed is a web feed that contains a summary of content from a website or, in the case of podcasts, a listing of all podcast episodes, including their titles, descriptions, and audio files. It's akin to an XML file for websites. The RSS feed is crucial because it's the mechanism by which podcast directories (like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, etc.) receive updates about new episodes from your podcast hosting platform. When you publish a new episode on your hosting platform, the RSS feed is updated, and directories that subscribe to your feed are notified, making your new content available to listeners across various platforms.Digital Marketing Resources:>> Join our exclusive SEO Marketing community>> Latest blogs on SEO optimization and Online Marketing>> Book your Complimentary SEO Discovery Call>> Book Paid Marketing Consultation Call>> Subscribe to We Don't PLAY PodcastBrands We Love and SupportLoving Me Beauty | Buy Vegan-based Luxury ProductsZetvaa | Buy Premium Human Hair Extensions Online

Spotify InstagramKING OF THE GLORY GAME OFFICIAL VIDEO BioCAIRO, EGYPT – Rising Egyptian artist RARA has released her electrifying new single,King of the Glory Game," a cinematic and soul-stirring track that channels culturalpride, global connection, and emotional strength. With her signature haunting yetmagnetic vocals, RARA continues to carve out a bold and authentic space in the globalpop landscape this time with a sound that feels as grand as it is heartfelt.The track, layered with vibrant beats, soaring choral elements, and emotionally chargedcrescendos, showcases RARA's ability to transform deeply personal storytelling intocollective resonance. “‘King of the Glory Game' is the first song that truly felt like it wasfor people,” RARA shares. “I could sense that this song had the potential to resonate inthe hearts of so many. I wanted to show the world my own authenticity, while stillstaying deeply connected to Egypt.”At its core, the song is an anthem of unity. “I wanted to remind people that we are united— no matter how different our cultures, religions, or beliefs might be,” RARA explains.“The message was about strength through unity… and I wanted people to feel joy insidethemselves when they listen to it. That kind of joy that feels like light coming fromwithin.The single also stands as a direct tribute to Egyptian football legend Mohamed Salah,whose name is proudly mentioned in the song. RARA noted that part of her intentionwas to honor someone “very important to the Egyptian people.” The track celebrates thepride, determination, and collective spirit Salah represents—both in Egypt and aroundthe world. The song's emotional power is amplified by its rich vocal arrangements. “Recording thechoir was magical,” RARA recalls. “So many voices came together in this one song — itfelt overwhelming in the best way, like I was being lifted by this huge wave of unity.Everyone gave their absolute all — and you can feel it.”Known for her cinematic approach to sound, RARA builds emotional landscapes witheach track she releases. But as she puts it, she doesn't aim for spectacle alone. “I wantmy music to feel like a big moment — not for the ‘wow effect,' but so that someone canfeel something deep inside. Like they've been understood without needing to say aword.” Shot on location in Cairo, the music video for “King of the Glory Game” is an intimate,unfiltered homage to her home. “Cairo is my home. The faces, the smells, themovements — it was all mine, all familiar. That wasn't just a music video, it was me,”she says. “I felt thankful. Thankful that I get to be myself, and share that.”While fans await her forthcoming EP or album, RARA is focused on crafting somethingdeeply personal. “I'm not rushing it. I want it to feel alive — not just something made tocheck a box,” she says. “Every song feels like a piece of me.”As an artist straddling both Egyptian heritage and a global perspective, RARA remainsgrounded in her mission. “It's a constant conversation with myself,” she says aboutbalancing cultural roots with global sounds. “But deep down, there's something that'smine something warm. I try not to lose that.With “King of the Glory Game,” RARA doesn't just offer a track — she offers a momentof connection. And if she can bring someone a moment of peace, she considers it asuccess. “Honestly… just that one day, someone puts on one of my songs on a hardday, and feels like: ‘Okay. I can breathe now.' That's it.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/creator-to-creators-with-meosha-bean--4460322/support.

Episode 2.21The Final Chapters of Ezra and NehemiahIn the concluding episode of our Ezra-Nehemiah series, we walk through Nehemiah 8–13—an emotional and theological rollercoaster. From the public reading of the Law and national covenant renewal to the bittersweet failures that follow, this episode traces Israel's spiritual high points... and its all-too-human shortcomings. We see the people hunger for God's Word, confess generational sin, and recommit to obedience. But by the final chapter, old sins resurface—neglect of worship, disregard for Sabbath, and compromise through intermarriage.What do we learn? That revival is real—but it's fragile. That leaders like Nehemiah can reform, but only God can transform. And that our ultimate hope isn't in policy or perseverance, but in the unshakable faithfulness of the Lord.Find our videocast here: https://youtu.be/LcY10bZtatUMerch here: https://take-2-podcast.printify.me/Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/reakt-music/deep-stoneLicense code: 2QZOZ2YHZ5UTE7C8Find more Take 2 Theology content at http://www.take2theology.com

Tantz Aerine showcased LGBTQ+ comics and creators for Pride month in June with the help of Skyangel, Mainly on Bluesky. It went to so well that she came up with the amazing idea of doing more monthly features for other themes. She doesn't want to dictate to us what those theme should be though, she wants input into the idea so we can all come up with good themes together! The idea behind a month long showcase isn't to be socially conscious so much as having a reason to bring more promotion to creators- that's important to remember. This is marketing :) We have a forum thread discussion* where people have shared their own recommendations. InkyMoondrop, Bravo1102, Lothar, Dragonsong12, PaulEberhardt, Kawaiidaigakusei, and J_Scarbrough had some great suggestions already! PaulEberhardt: - April as Autism acceptance Month. - December as Universal Human Rights Month - December's also Learn a Foreign Language Month. - October is Dyslexia, Depression and Breast Cancer. Bravo1102: - February is Black African heritage month - March is Woman's heritage month - November is for war, veterans and remembrance. Dragonsong12: - Hispanic heritage - Mental health Lothar: - Relationships - Mental health -Drugs and alcohol - Poverty - Religion - Politics - War - Existential dread Ozoneocean (me): – Erotic comics awareness month – mixed media comics – Newspaper strips – Political creators – War – Romance – Female creators – Creators who started before the digital age. Kawaiidaigakusei: - Alien Month - Furry and Scaly Month - mental health - Language Other than English Month - Fantasy Month J_Scarbrough: - October: Scary comics - December: Christmas, good will, happy celebration theme. All good suggestions but some of them can be joined into others I think? Something like “Hispanic Heritage” could go into a category like Kawaii's “Language Other than English Month”, and “Poverty” and “Drugs and alcohol” could be subsets of “Mental Health”? Also on the Quackcast Banes suggested February for “Romance” because of valentines day. Please give your opinions and suggestion! Tantz wants a popular vote of these.

For most Americans, the Big Beautiful Bill is destructionist legislation. But, I started to to look at it like any small business owner, entrepreneur should. There is a silver lining for creators. Congress has just passed one of the biggest tax packages in recent history, billions in adjustments. And there are four key areas that are critically important for content creators. 20% Qualified Business Income Deduction (QBI) No Tax on Tips (up to $25,000) No Tax on Overtime (within limits) 100% Bonus Depreciation This bill is a giant flashing neon sign that says: “We reward people who own things.” ------- Like this episode?

Jake Knapp and John Zeratsky are the co-creators of the Design Sprint (the famous five-day product innovation process) and authors of the bestselling book Sprint. After decades of working with over 300 startups in the earliest stages, they discovered that most startups fail not because they can't build, but because they build the wrong thing. The very beginning of a startup is your highest-leverage moment, and most teams waste months or years by skipping a few critical early questions. Jake and John developed the Foundation Sprint to help startups validate ideas and compress months of work into just two days.What you'll learn:1. The step-by-step Foundation Sprint process that compresses three or four months of validation into two days—including templates you can use immediately2. Why differentiation is the #1 predictor of startup success (with the 2x2 framework that you can use with your team)3. The three fundamental questions every founder should answer before writing a line of code4. The “note and vote” technique that eliminates groupthink and gets honest answers from your colleagues5. The seven “magic lenses” for choosing between multiple product ideas6. The biggest mistake engineers make when building with AI tools7. The paradox of speed: why “building nothing first” can get you to product-market fit faster—Brought to you by:Brex—The banking solution for startups: https://www.brex.com/product/business-account?ref_code=bmk_dp_brand1H25_ln_new_fsParagon—Ship every SaaS integration your customers want: https://www.useparagon.com/lennyCoda—The all-in-one collaborative workspace: https://coda.io/lenny—Transcript: https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/the-foundation-sprint-jake-knapp-and-john-zeratsky—Where to find Jake Knapp:• X: https://twitter.com/jakek• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jake-knapp/• Website: https://jakeknapp.com/—Where to find John Zeratsky:• X: https://twitter.com/jazer• LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/johnzeratsky/• Website: https://johnzeratsky.com/—In this episode, we cover:(00:00) Introduction to Jake Knapp and John Zeratsky(04:41) Origins of the Design Sprint(11:06) The Foundation Sprint process(14:40) Phase one: The basics(16:57) Case study: Latchet(28:50) Phase two: Differentiation(36:24) The importance of differentiation(40:15) Thoughts on price differentiation(43:37) Case study: Mellow(46:04) Custom differentiators(49:30) The mini manifesto(52:02) Phase three: Approach to the project(54:50) Magic lenses activity(01:02:39) Prototyping and testing(01:10:00) Real-world examples and success stories(01:15:15) Motivation behind The Foundation Sprint(01:17:15) The outcome of the sprint: The founding hypothesis(01:19:28) The Design Sprint(01:28:19) The role of AI in prototyping(01:36:50) Final thoughts and resources—Referenced:• Introducing the Foundation Sprint: From the creators of the Design Sprint: https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/introducing-the-foundation-sprint• Making time for what matters | Jake Knapp and John Zeratsky (authors of Sprint and Make Time, co-founders of Character Capital): https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/making-time-for-what-matters-jake• Eli Blee-Goldman on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/eli-blee-goldman/• Character Capital: https://www.character.vc/• Character Labs: https://www.character.vc/labs• Etsy: https://www.etsy.com/• Shopify: https://www.shopify.com/• Naming expert shares the process behind creating billion-dollar brand names like Azure, Vercel, Windsurf, Sonos, Blackberry, and Impossible Burger | David Placek (Lexicon Branding): https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/naming-expert-david-placek• Sonos: https://www.sonos.com/• Vercel: https://vercel.com/• Windsurf: https://windsurf.com/• April Dunford on product positioning, segmentation, and optimizing your sales process: https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/april-dunford-on-product-positioning• Positioning: https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/positioning• 10 things we know to be true: https://about.google/company-info/philosophy/• Gandalf: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gandalf• Frodo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Frodo_Baggins• Mordor: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mordor• 35 years of product design wisdom from Apple, Disney, Pinterest, and beyond | Bob Baxley: https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/35-years-of-product-design-wisdom-bob-baxley• The Primal Mark: How the Beginning Shapes the End in the Development of Creative Ideas: https://www.gsb.stanford.edu/faculty-research/publications/primal-mark-how-beginning-shapes-end-development-creative-ideas• Base44: https://base44.com/• Solo founder, $80M exit, 6 months: The Base44 bootstrapped startup success story | Maor Shlomo: https://www.lennysnewsletter.com/p/the-base44-bootstrapped-startup-success-story-maor-shlomo• Google Meet: https://meet.google.com/• Blue Bottle Coffee: https://bluebottlecoffee.com• Reclaim: https://reclaim.ai/• The official Foundation Sprint + Design Sprint template: https://www.character.vc/miro-template• Rippling: https://www.rippling.com/• Latchet: https://latchet.com/• Mellow: http://getmellow.com/• AxionOrbital: https://axionorbital.space/—Recommended books:• Sprint: How to Solve Big Problems and Test New Ideas in Just Five Days: https://www.amazon.com/Sprint-audiobook/dp/B019R2DQIY• Make Time: How to Focus on What Matters Every Day: https://www.amazon.com/Make-Time-Focus-Matters-Every/dp/0525572422• Click: How to Make What People Want: https://www.amazon.com/Click-Make-What-People-Want/dp/1668072114Production and marketing by https://penname.co/.
