Podcasts about doldrums

Phil Svitek and Marisa Serafini (@serafinitv) dive into The Phantom Tollbooth by Norton Juster, with iconic illustrations by Jules Feiffer—a timeless children's fantasy that doubles as a philosophical guide to paying attention.First published in 1961, The Phantom Tollbooth follows Milo, a bored boy who drives through a mysterious tollbooth and enters a world where words grow on trees, numbers are mined from the ground, time literally ticks, and curiosity determines whether you move forward or get stuck in the Doldrums. Along the way, Milo meets unforgettable characters like Tock the Watchdog, Humbug, Alec Bings, and the princesses Rhyme and Reason.In this episode, Phil and Marisa explore why this book has endured for over 60 years—selling nearly five million copies—despite early bans and challenges over its “difficult” language and ideas. We break down the novel's playful but pointed critique of modern life: distraction, speed, consumerism, and the quiet danger of not thinking deeply enough.We discuss the power of language and education, the balance between words and numbers, and why wisdom isn't just about learning facts—but learning how, why, and when to use what you know. The conversation also touches on the book's adaptations, including the 1970 animated/live-action film, stage versions, and ongoing interest in a modern remake. At its heart, The Phantom Tollbooth reminds us that life isn't boring—it's only boring when curiosity disappears.We also share what we've been reading outside of Book Club lately.Upcoming Book Club picks-I'll Be Waiting For You (and other stories) – Kim Bo-Young (February 2026)-The Lost Bookshop – Evie Woods (March 2026)-Marisa pick (April 2026)-How to Solve Your Own Murder – Kristen Perrin (May 2026)-Marisa pick (June 2026)-Days at the Torunka Café – Satoshi Yagisawa (July 2026)

1. Best coaching advice you've gotten?“People are not problems to be solved” – coaching isn't fixing.Coaching is about creating space, not offering solutions.2.

Most outrageous (or courageous) thing you've done in a coaching session?Somatic work: having a client turn and face a wall to access deeper wisdom.Telling a client, “I don't think I'm helping you”—which unlocked the engagement.4. What still makes you squirm in coaching?Coaching clients stuck in the “doldrums” or victim mindset.Holding ambiguity without forcing action or clarity.5. If I were new to coaching, what advice would you have?Who you are matters more than what you do—presence is everything.Avoid the trap of ‘getting it right'—ditch the powerful questions playbook.6. What have you had to conquer to be a great coach?The need to always “get the A”; perfectionism.Becoming an experiential learner who's willing to fail forward.7. Are you using AI in your coaching practice?Uses ChatGPT for supervision prep, self-reflection, and content creation.Believes what's easy today will be done by AI, so coaches must evolve.8.

Braiden is a London-based DJ and producer known for his genre-blurring sets and finely tuned ear for sound design. During the 2000's he was a pivotal figure in underground club culture, helping to push and champion a new style of bass music which would go on to become synonymous with dance music in the UK and globally. Braiden gained early recognition through his diverse and dynamic DJ sets, which fluidly blend elements of house, techno, grime, UK garage, and experimental electronics. He first made waves as a presenter on Rinse FM, where his forward-thinking selections and deep knowledge of club music cultures earned him a keen following. His productions — including the acclaimed 2010 debut single “The Alps” on Joy Orbison's Doldrums label — showcase a meticulous approach to rhythm and atmosphere. “The Alps” was reissued this year, cementing the EP amidst a new crowd with Braiden having ducked out of the spotlight for several years to focus on other outlets. Now he's back, with new music as well.

Send us a textIt's early August. Your waiting room is half-empty. The phones are unusually quiet. And your front desk staff is asking the question you've heard every summer: “Is it always this slow?” Welcome to the summer doldrums.  If you've led or worked in a clinic for any length of time, you know what I'm talking about. The summer months, particularly June through August, often bring a natural lull in patient volume—especially in outpatient settings like primary care, pediatrics, dermatology, and behavioral health. But what if I told you that this lull isn't just something to endure—but a strategic opportunity to plan, recalibrate, and even grow? In today's episode of Medical Money Matters, we're exploring how to make the most of slower summer clinic schedules. From measuring capacity to boosting seasonal services, supporting your team, and launching marketing campaigns, we'll talk about how to turn a seasonal dip into long-term gains. Please Follow or Subscribe to get new episodes delivered to you as soon as they drop!

Has Head Coach Brent Pry finally found the magic key to unlocking Hokies football from the doldrums? With two new coordinators and more than enough new names on the roster it appears that opportunity is knocking this season. The Lead Analyst and Columnist at TechSideline, Chris Coleman joins Will and Jim on ACC Nation and shares a wealth of knowledge that seems to indicate this team is close to shedding mediocrity. There are several must-win games to get the engine started and a win over South Carolina in Atlanta would go a long way in priming the pump. Coleman gives us his thumbs up-thumbs down on the 2025 season. The conclusion is the team is riding somewhere in between the dark and the light. What will it take to move in the right direction? Hokies Will and Chris break down the changes in offense and defense under Phil Montgomery and Sam Siefkes. Which side of the ball is most likely to advance? Tough questions and only time will tell. The Hokies are at home for 7 games and there seems to be more tv time for them as well. Does someone know something the rest of us don't?

It's that time of year where things slow down. The calm before the storm of summer announcements. E3 may be dead but the excitement of E3 week lives on. Unfortunately, it means this time of year - unless there is a major leak - is usually quiet. But that's okay because this episode we talk about areas of the world, mythologies and cultures that could come to prominence in gaming. With the US industry seemingly stumbling, are there other countries that could grow to dominate the industry? Also, at the end of the end of the episode I mention a great horror book, but couldn't recall the exact title: Between Two Fires by Christopher Buehlman. Enjoy!

For the past few years, Germany has begun to look like the ‘sick man of Europe' again. Its economy has barely grown since 2019, while its famous manufacturing sector has shrivelled. But earlier this month, financial markets were buoyed by a vote in the German parliament to relax the constitutional limit on government borrowing, the so-called debt brake. It means that Germany's likely new conservative-led coalition government will be free to borrow unlimited amounts to fund a defence sector build-up, and can also draw on a €500bn fund to spend on infrastructure over the next 10 years. But will more government spending be enough to address Germany's structural economic problems? The FT's Martin Sandbu speaks to economist Ulrike Malmendier of the University of California, Berkeley, who is a member of the German Council of Economics Experts, which evaluates the government's economic policies.Martin Sandbu writes a regular column for the Financial Times, which you can find here. It includes recent columns on Berlin's about-turn on debt spending, and the economic choice facing Germany.Subscribe on Apple, Spotify, Pocket Casts or wherever you listen.Presented by Martin Sandbu.

Electric vehicles are a big part of the green energy transition but some of their most critical components are made using rare-earth elements. These can be highly toxic and environmentally destructive to mine and refine, with politically-complicated supply chains to boot. Engineers and automakers like Tesla, GM and Stellantis are now racing to build motors that don't require magnets made from rare earths, but they must figure out how to match the efficiency. WSJ mining and commodities reporter Rhiannon Hoyle speaks with host Danny Lewis about why countries and companies are finding alternatives to rare earths. Plus, Oak Ridge National Laboratory engineer Burak Ozpineci tells us where new motors could take the EV industry. What do you think about the show?
