This episode begins our coverage celebrating the 30th anniversary of Pearl Jam's Vs. tour in 1994. With this tour falling smack dab in the middle of the band's prime, there are a plethora of storylines inside and outside of the shows that make this year a memorable one. Vitalogy songs were getting played in the set prior to the album's release, legendary shows took place in cities such as Boston and Atlanta, dealing with Ticketmaster, bomb threats, backstage break-ins, and Dave Abbruzzese exit from the band. This episode features a Rock For Choice show that took place in Pensacola, Florida a year after the death of Dr. David Gunn, a doctor who performed safe abortions on women who were unable to birth a child. The band has actively supported a women's right to choose going back to their formation. You may remember moments such as Ed wearing a t-shirt with a coat hanger on it during their 1992 performance on Saturday Night Live, and most famously at MTV Unplugged where Ed wrote pro-choice on his arm with a marker. The point of the episode is to discuss some of the band's history of activism, but also within the nature of our world at this current moment, it was extremely difficult to provide an episode on abortion rights without addressing what's going on. That means you will get to hear our heartfelt opinions on the subject at hand. If this is something that you are uncomfortable listening to at this point in time, please take note of that before checking out the podcast. The entire night had references (some subtle, others not so much) to the cause that they were fighting to defend, none more relevant than opening with a cover of Tom Petty's I Won't Back Down. The performances are the height of the era with the band absolutely locked in, and Ed tearing into the vocals on songs such as Dissident, Glorified G, Blood, Alive, Porch and many more. We also get to hear a speech from David Gunn Jr. as well as instances where Ed will attack the subject head on.

EPISODE 63: COUNTDOWN WITH KEITH OLBERMANN A-Block (1:46) I cannot be certain which scumbag I hate more today: Joe Scarborough or Samuel Alito. It's amazing that a shameless venomous opportunist, whose behavior for 30 years implies a damaged psyche, has the nerve to attack and not celebrate the recovery from stroke of an honest politician (5:30) Scarborough is the political whore who tried to mainstream Trump on MSNBC yet never once asked him "Why do you say things that make no sense?" or "Have you had an aneurysm or concussion?" or "Have you used drugs that can interfere with or damage your cognitive ability?" (7:27) His attack on Fetterman is worse than it seems because for every American recovering from injury or illness, it is a slap in their face from a creature not worthy of any position of influence in this business or this society (10:30) And "Justice" Samuel Alito, who has now failed mathematics, history, and ethics, may still be worse after his self-martyring speech to a fascist group (15:20) Perhaps Alito can resign and be replaced by an attorney who once defended the murderer of an abortion doctor. The attorney was named Joe Scarborough. B-Block (18:15) EVERY DOG HAS ITS DAY: Kodah, in New York (19:00) POSTSCRIPTS TO THE NEWS: Surprisingly good news for Dems in early voting numbers and the generic Congressional Ballot; the implication Kash Patel is willing to testify against Trump; Kanye crashes Skechers and gets shown out by security; Musk tries to float a joke only to see it sink; Another Herschel Walker abortion story (23:00) IN SPORTS: Boone stays, the new NYC Marathon chief may have togo, and they're not booing, they're chanting "Potvin Socks" (26:07) THE WORST PERSONS IN THE WORLD: NewsNation TV and Louis DeJoy compete with National Review Online publishing the rants of a Pennsylvania Republican who wants genocide against Democrats for the honors. C-Block (30:33) THINGS I PROMISED NOT TO TELL: Back 43 years ago today, they actually banned Willie Mays for promoting gambling (rather than give him a big paycheck). At age 20 I had to interview him, and the bizarre way he answered his phone still resonates me - as does the bizarre way he was drafted by the army right after his big league debut and how that might have cost him the all-time Home Run Record.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

On August 30, 1904 32 runners set off to compete in the Olympic Marathon in St. Louis. Only 13 would finish. This poorly planned event would be one of the worst sporting events of all time. Cramps, dehydration, wild dogs, hallucinatios, stomach hemorrrages, car wrekcs and scandal all took place that afternoon. In fact, it was just one of several sporting events in 1904 marked by scandal and trechary. And in this three part serires we'll explore three of those events. In this episode Dr. Peter Kastor, Author and Professor of History and American Cultural Studies discusses how the legacy 1904 World's Fair, how white supremecy influenced the event and the legacy it's left. David Gunn shares his epxerience running in marathons juxtaposed with the 1904 race.

We begin with a look at how both the Pandemic and record-high inflation rates are impacting the retirement plans of Canadians. We get some insight from David Gunn, President of Edward Jones Canada. Next, it's been a tough couple of years for all of us, and has certainly been hard on post-secondary students, many of which have been forced to ‘pause' their schooling or push back their graduation. We hear details on a new study from the C.D. Howe Institute focusing on the topic and how it could ultimately affect Canada's labour market. Then, we head to South of the border to speak with Reggie Cecchini, Washington Correspondent for Global News. Reggie brings us the latest on the continuing hearings into the January 6th insurrection and former President Donald Trump's involvement on that historic day. Finally, it's our monthly conversation with Dr. Axel Moehrenschlager, Wilder Institute/Calgary Zoo's Director of Conservation and Science. This time out, Dr. Moehrenschlager shares the story of the global effort to re-introduce a very unique species of tree to Easter Island.

Speaking with King 810 frontman David Gunn is a lesson in intensity.The man has a passion so deep and an anger so unrefined that it is almost intimidating to spend 15 minutes alone with him.Intimidating, but ultimately rewarding.The man doesn’t just spit venomous words of intent in random fashion to make music he hopes will connect with the general public.He writes words of honour, trust and betrayal forged on the streets of his hometown in Flint, Michigan, and if one person listens and takes something from his musings then all is good and well but you get the sense that Gunn isn’t doing this for anyone else.Nor is he doing it for himself.He is just doing it because he is, and that’s all that matters. Music is an expression of his past, present and future and is, for all intents and purposes, the one thing that keeps Gunn grounded and away from his innermost thoughts which, if fully entertained, would result in a bleak day indeed for all involved.He is a deeply passionate and self-fulfilling gentleman who would rather no one had to live like this, but music is art and art is expression and unless you are writing about something real and tangible, then what is the point at all?Gunn joined HEAVY for a rare chat during the week, giving some insight into what it is that motivates him and his music.It is an at times harrowing ordeal but one which should be listened to and read by people everywhere. It is one man's tale of the struggles of oppression and violence and how he deals with it on a daily basis.Ladies and metalheads, welcome to the world of King810.Towards the end of last year King810 released their fourth album AK Concerto No. 47, 11th Movement in G Major. It was a brutal beast of an album – some would argue the bands best yet – but many bemoaned the fact that it was wasted on a world embroiled in the pandemic, arguing it should have been put off until times were better.These thoughts did nothing but further ignite Gunn’s flame, with the argument that music is supposed to be there to comfort in times of need more prominent than the tendency to play it safe and wait for people to rediscover their happy place."I didn't really understand why you have musicians - career musicians - who make and record music, and those are the basic two parts of their career,” Gunn began. “Fifty percent is probably touring or playing and the other fifty percent is creating, so one of them gets taken away -and bands are always talking about how it's so hard to write on tour, that's why everyone's second album sucks because they are on tour and don't get a chance to sit at home - and then they get two years to stay at home and no-one does shit. So it seems like common sense that when fifty percent of your career is disabled or crippled, whatever, you would probably do the part that you could do, but as we've learned no one's doing that. What they are basically saying is we can't go on tour to make any money so we're not doing music. Their excuse is a cold and I've had plenty of colds and I made plenty of songs and did plenty of shows while I had it. So it's funny that there's that old tired saying that people keep passing around about bands being on the road and touring and not being able to make a record and then they get a fucken paid vacation by the government and don't make a single fucken record! On one hand, I think the music industry is a bunch of circus clowns and the other answer would be I constantly use a stock market strategy called reverse verification which means you look to whoever you don't like or whoever is doing something that you don't wish to be like, and if they're doing this, then you do that, or if they're doing that then you do this. So when I show music to someone who I don't think has the taste or some 50-year-old square and he says this is gonna cause some problems then I know that is the song we should do or that is the good song. Just like they say don't make a record because of COVID and no-one's doing that now and you should do live streams and you should do this, that or the other I'm going to make a record, release it, not do any live streams and not sell COVID-19 masks to try and make $300 like everyone else seems to be doing. So whatever anyone's popular opinion is that's what we won't be doing. A bunch of people said, for sure, this records really good you should save it and I was like save it for what? The world sucks right now, it sucked last year and it's gonna suck next years so do I save it for what, this shitty world without the cold? It doesn't matter to me. People still like to listen to music. I don't care about the temperature or the climate or whatever..."In the full interview, David talks about King 810's latest song "I Am The Enemy" and the meaning behind it, the title of the album and where it comes from, what difference he feels he has made with his music, writing for others or yourself, reflecting honesty in your music, playing live and why he dislikes it and more.

It’s March 9th. On this day in 1993, Dr. David Gunn was murdered outside the women’s clinic at which he worked by an anti-abortion protester.

COMPOSER David Gunn talks about his 1 Track, THE CONCHOID OF NICOMEDES

In 1993, Dr. David Gunn was practicing as an OB/GYN in the Panhandle of the Southern United States. He serviced many poor and rural neighborhoods all because he wanted to help the less fortunate. Besides delivering many babies throughout his career, Dr. Gunn also practiced the controversial procedure of abortion. And this made many residents in the Panhandle angry. But just how angry would some of his enemies get?....90s Crime Time Official Website-https://www.90scrimetime.com/How do you like the show so far?

On March 10, 1993, Michael Frederick Griffin murdered Dr. David Gunn in Pensacola, Florida, in the United States. This was the first documented murder of an OB-GYN where the murderer's stated intention was to prevent a doctor from performing abortions.[1] Griffin (at the time 31 years old) waited outside Gunn's clinic and shot him three times in the back. He is reported to have yelled, "Don't kill any more babies," just before the shooting.[2] Griffin did not attempt to hide his commission of the murder, telling police, "We need an ambulance." A jury deliberated three hours before finding him guilty on March 4, 1994. He was sentenced to life in prison, which he is serving at Okaloosa Correctional Institution in Crestview, Florida.[3] The murder was one of the motivating factors in the creation of the federal Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act.[4] Gunn's death also prompted Paul Jennings Hill to issue the First Defensive Action Statement,[5] signed by 30 anti-abortion leaders, which justifies the killing of doctors who perform abortions.

Anti-abortion extremist murders Florida doctor. Despite daily pickets, protests and death threats from anti-abortionists, Dr. David Gunn provided abortion services to women in Alabama, Georgia and Florida. He paid for his courage and defiance with his life on March 10, 1993. That’s the day anti-abortion extremist Michael Griffin responded to what he called “a sign from God” by murdering Gunn outside the Pensacola Florida Women’s Medical Services abortion clinic. The crime fuelled the debate over abortion in the U.S. John Burt, regional director of the anti-abortion organization Rescue America, said, "The use of lethal force was justifiable, provided it was carried out for the purpose of defending the lives of unborn children." Although Griffin was sentenced to life in prison in 1994 for the murder of Dr. Gunn, doctors performing abortions continued to be killed or wounded by anti-abortion fanatics for several years following Gunn’s death.

Which is the most frustrating part of an article? Yes, it’s the First Fifty Words. We get so stuck at the starting point when writing an article, that it’s almost impossible to go ahead. But what if there were not just one, but three ways to create drama in your article? That would be cool, wouldn’t it? Well, here you go. Not one, but three ways to start your article with drama and get attention. ====== In this episode Sean talks about—Three ways to get your readers attention. Part 1: The power of story Part 2: Disagreement with your premise Part 3: How to create intrigue with lists You can read it online here:  3 Ways To Create Instant Drama In Your Articles ========== In 1974, New York had a problem that didn’t seem to go away. No matter where you rode the subway in New York, there was graffiti painted both inside and outside the trains. Young men with their spray cans covered the city’s trains with their version of art and soon the subway came to be seen as a symbol of a city on its way to the gutter. The city put up security fences, razor wire and brought in guard dogs They even went through one amazingly misguided strategy to paint all the trains white. Sure enough, The Great White Fleet as they called it, was soon covered with a fresh layer of graffiti. The city couldn’t seem to think of any way to solve the graffiti problem. Then along came David Gunn In 1984, Gunn was appointed as the president of the New York City (NYC) Transit Authority. Gunn had a track record of cleaning up subways in Boston and Philadelphia. Even so, the city of New York had been battling the graffiti problem for over a decade. What radical idea could Gunn implement that would turn back the clock to better times? As it turned out Gunn’s solution centered around a single idea The moment a train was bombed with graffiti, it was to be pulled over and painted. If a train car was being repaired, they’d ensure the car remained graffiti-free. If they found graffiti on a train overnight, the NYC Transit Authority would sweep in and repaint the train. Even during rush hour if they found a train had been “bombed”, they would pull it back to the yard and clean it up, so that the graffiti was nowhere to be seen. On May 12, 1989, the city declared victory over the city’s graffiti artists. Notice what just happened? You started reading this article to find out how to write the First Fifty Words. But before you knew it, you were transported back to New York, the subway and the graffiti dilemma. And the reason why you got to this point is because of the drama created by the First Fifty Words. When your article, presentation or webinar has a powerful opening, the client gets pulled along happily. And yet, it’s not always easy to know how to go about creating those First Fifty Words. So today, let’s take a look at three ways to create the drama. Method 1: The power of story Method 2: Disagreement with your premise Method 3: Lists Method 1: The Power of the Story In the 1980’s a persistent drought swept through the African Savannah. Watering holes dried up, food was scarcer than ever. Yet, one animal, the kudu, wasn’t affected as much. This is because the kudu can continue to get its nutrition from the hardy Acacia tree. Most other animals don’t tangle with the Acacia’s thorns, but the kudu navigates its way between the thorns to get at the juicy leaves. But suddenly dozens of kudu started dropping dead. When the kudu were examined, there seemed to be no reason for the deaths. They looked perfectly healthy and didn’t appear to be suffering from any malnutrition. However, the number of deaths soon soared into the hundreds, then into the thousands. Now we may believe that Africa is one vast open area, but in reality a lot of wildlife lives in vast ranches While it was devastating for the ranchers to see the kudu fall to the ground in heaps, they were also puzzled by the inconsistency of the deaths. On one ranch the kudu continued to thrive. On other ranches, their numbers decreased precipitously. There seemed to be no answer to the question, until they considered the number of kudu on the ranches. On some ranches there were a lot of kudu On others there were a lot less. As the drought raged on, the kudu had no other vegetation but Acacia leaves. Once the tree lost all its leaves, it would no longer be able to harness sunlight. In effect, the Acacia trees would die. In an act of self-preservation, the tree started producing more tannin. Not just more tannin, but lethal amounts of it. Biologist and African herbivore expert, Professor Woutor Van Hoven examined the rumen of the kudu and found the digestive system to be in complete shutdown. Now tannin is a compound can only come from a natural source. It wasn’t hard to point fingers at the Acacia tree. On the ranches with dense kudu populations the Acacia tree was producing 400% more tannin The tannin was getting inside the digestive system and killing the kudu. In effect, the Acacia trees were culling the kudu. On the ranches with sparser kudu, the tannin wasn’t anywhere close to these lethal amounts. The plant was clearly going through a stage of self-preservation. Story, it seems is easily the fastest way to get a client’s attention And we all know this fact of attention-getting to be true. But we aren’t sure where to find the stories or how to make them work and then how to reconnect them to the article. Those are three elements in themselves, so let’s start with finding the stories. I tend to find my stories all around me. But if that’s not a good enough answer for you, here are a few links. Go to www.smithsonian.com, or live science.com, history.com, bbcearth or listverse.com. In effect, what you need to do is to go any of these sites, spend some time reading and then save whatever you need to Evernote. Of course, as I keep harping on repeatedly, without Evernote, you’re just wasting your time. I can literally find hundreds of stories in a few minutes, precisely because of Evernote. Finding stories was a bit of a nightmare at first, but I soon realised I could find two or three stories a day that related to history, geology, biology and case studies. Added to that were my own personal stories, and so the first problem was done and dusted. If I could find three stories a day, I’d have about 21 stories by the following week. And no matter how prolific a writer or speaker I turn out to be, I can’t go through that volume of stories. But how do you know which stories work? Look for the unfolding ups and downs The most boring story is one that stays on a single track: either up or down. A good story is like the kudu story. It started out with the drought, went to the fact that kudu didn’t care and neither did the ranchers. Then kudu start dying, yet the next ranch with fewer kudu has no such trouble. The biologist comes in, investigates and we have the killer: the Acacia tree itself. It was an act of self-preservation. That story has bounce all the way, as do most good stories. You’ll probably have noticed the same bounce for the NY subway story. How the situation went from bad to worse, until David Gunn came in and put an end to the graffiti. Stories make for a dramatic start You know how to find the stories and how to store them in Evernote. You can even find the bounce in these stories. What remains is how to connect them to your main content. Notice how I finished the kudu story? The last line was about self-preservation. So what would the theme of the article be? Sure, self-preservation. But what if the last line was “speedy response”? Well, then the article would head over to “speedy response”. The last line of your story, whatever you happen to choose, is what creates the bridge towards the rest of the article. The first port of call should always be a story, or analogy When you go to Amazon.com and read the reviews of The Brain Audit, you’ll find most of the readers seem to agree on one fact. Many of them seem to suggest The Brain Audit is exceedingly easy and refreshing to read. But what makes it refreshing? Or rather what makes content boring? It’s clearly the lack of stories and analogies. You can’t turn more than two-three pages without running into analogies and stories in The Brain Audit. The Three Month Vacation Podcast has at least three stories or analogies and it could go to as many as six or seven. Articles, webinars, reports—they all have stories and analogies. To get your article going, you need to start storing stories You need to start looking for those ups and downs. And then it’s a matter of reconnecting by inserting the last line into the story, so it reconnects with the article. But stories are just one way of taking on the First Fifty Words. The second method is to disagree with your headline. Method 2: Disagreeing with your premise In 1949, the ad agency DDB had a reasonably big challenge. They were given the opportunity to sell the Volkswagen Beetle. This wasn’t just another car. It was a post-war German “people’s car”, connected with development plans that went back to Hitler himself. Plus the car was small, slow and considered ugly. Added to the challenge was the fact that DDB had a paltry advertising budget of just $800,000. So how do you create instant drama when the odds are stacked against you? You simply disagree with your premise, or in the case of Volkswagen, the prevailing premise Back in 1949, the war had ended and overblown consumption was the order of the day. American cars were big, bulky and drank tons of fuel. All the advertising pointed to how fast most American cars happened to be. All, except Volkswagen, that is. One of their earliest ad took almost everyone by surprise. It said: Presenting American’s slowest fastback. And the ads talked about how the cars wouldn’t go over 72 mph (even though the speedometer shows a top speed of 90). What Volkswagen Beetle advertising did was create intense drama by disagreeing with the status quo. The very same principle applies to your article writing and gives you the clue as to what you should be doing as well. To snap your audience out of whatever they’re doing, it’s a good idea to disagree with the prevailing situation or idea. And since you’re the one who wrote the headline, what better way to go than to disagree with your headline? Let’s take an example. Let’s say your headline says: How to increase prices (without losing customers) You’d think the article would continue in the vein of increasing prices, wouldn’t you? But instead, it goes the other way. The first paragraph instructs you to reduce your prices in half. Then down to a quarter of the original price. And then the text goes on to explain something you’re already quite aware of: that reducing prices is a very bad strategy. However, the technique it uses is what gets your attention. Instead of going in the direction you’d expect, it moves in quite the opposite direction. Disagreement works because of the mild shock, and the consequent curiosity to figure out what’s happening. But it’s one thing to examine an ad or an existing article. How do you create this disagreement in your own articles? Let’s start off with a headline: The 3 Keys To A Perfect Ayurvedic Diet. How could you disagree with this headline in your first paragraph? Start off by thinking how you could sabotage the perfect Ayurvedic diet. Got the idea, yet? All you need to do is think up your headline and think of the exact opposite behaviour. Let’s try another headline, shall we? How to get your projects done using an unknown system of time management. Now let’s disagree with the headline. Time management is an erroneous concept, which is why most of us struggle to get anything done. Haven’t you gone through whole days where you’ve had loads of time, but still failed to get anything done? That’s because we don’t really work with time. We work with energy instead. See what’s happening? You’re pushing in a headline that seems to talk about one thing but the opening paragraph seems to disagree. But you don’t have to keep the disagreement going. After you’ve made your point in a paragraph or so, you can go back to the original premise of the article. You’ve completed your mission. You’ve woken up your audience with the disagreement and they’re keen to read more of what you have to say. So far we’ve looked at stories. We’ve also looked at disagreeing with your premise. But there’s a third way that really helps when you’re feeling blank. And this method is called the “list method”. Let’s find out how we start articles with lists. Method 3: Lists Let’s take one type of list: The Netherlands 70% USA 30% UK 30% Ok, so let’s take another list: A bucket A spoon Two ladles of chocolate ice-cream Lists get attention and especially when you use it within the First Fifty Words. And in case you’re wondering, the first list that comprised of the Netherlands, USA and UK, it was a factor of social trust. In the Netherlands, 7 out of 10 people say they trust each other. In the US and UK, only 3 out of 10 people seem to have social trust. However, we’re not here to debate the issue of social trust. What we’re looking at, is the power of lists when used in the First Fifty Words of your article. The moment you slide in a list, the reader is intrigued And rightly so, because a list is a sequence of elements and somehow that sequence needs to end up in a logical place. So if your headline was: “How to get a business up and running in 90 days”, you could start your article with a list. That list immediately catches the attention of the reader and keeps that attention as you transition over to the main article. Lists don’t need much preparation Unlike a story that needs all that bounce and mystery, a list is almost sterile in its approach. You don’t even need any disagreement in a list. If anything, a list seems to take the reader right to where they want to go, just like a recipe. And that’s why lists are so cool, but there is a downside. Lists are so spartan that they stand out. If you’ve used a list to start up an article recently, you’re probably going to have to wait to use a list again. The very format is so conspicuous that it requires a good deal of time to pass before you can re-use the technique in another article, podcast or presentation. Nonetheless, they are great starting points and in you’re in a tricky situation, start with a list.   Summary In this very article, we ran into the story of the NY subway, the kudu on the African savanna and the story of the Volkswagen Beetle being introduced to America in 1949. Stories are easily the best tool to get the attention of your readers within the First Fifty Words. It’s what I use consistently in books from The Brain Audit to Dartboard Pricing. If you find it easy to read the books, yes, it’s because of two elements. The first is the structure of the book, but easily the biggest other factor is the sheer volume of stories and analogies that help you understand the concepts faster and more permanently. However there’s more than one way to skin a cat The method we looked at was the factor of disagreement. And the way to go about disagreeing with your headline is to write a headline e.g. How to buy a second hand computer that will last six years—and then go in the opposite direction. Tell the reader a story about computers that failed. Go the opposite way and you do what DDB did with Volkswagen Beetle. And this method sure gets a ton of attention. Finally we get to the third way: creating lists This method is the easiest of all. For instance, if I wanted to start this article with a list, I could start with the three points we’ve covered, namely, “The power of the story, disagreeing with your premise and lists”. And that would get the reader curious enough to want to read more. Then I could continue the article by simply explaining each of the points and fleshing them out in detail. But where should you start? What’s the ONE thing you can do? If you’re stuck for time, try the list today. But ideally the best thing you can do for the long run is to fire up your copy of Evernote. Start saving stories. Go to BBC Earth, History.com, ListVerse.com, Smithsonian.com and start saving stories. There’s nothing more powerful than stories especially when you’re starting up the First Fifty Words. Next Step: You know how they say "first impressions count?" Well, they do. Within the first three seconds of reading an article or an email, your client is already making a decision whether to read on. Many of us aren’t restricted to email. We use webinars, video, podcasts and presentations. And all of these media have one thing in common: they all need a great start. Learning how to really create outstanding openings (whether in articles or any media) is deeply gratifying. And powerful. More details: http://psychotactics.com/first-50-words
