RECORDED OCTOBER 2024 Hosted by Scott "DR GX" Goldfine — musicologist, author of “Everything Is on the One: The First Guide of Funk” and creator/host of the popular TRUTH IN RHYTHM podcast — "Where'd You Get Your Funk From?" is the latest interview show brought to you by FUNKNSTUFF.NET.

A common thread, is the show's standard opening question: Where'd you get your funk from? This is much deeper than it may seem as the answer need not be strictly about funky music, as not everyone has found the funk. It could hit on whatever type of music touches their soul or pleasure centers. Additionally, the question extends beyond music. Paraphrasing George Clinton, funk is whatever it needs to be to get you over the hump. Thus, guests can explain where they got their grit, perseverance, inspiration, talent, creativity, character or other qualities that shaped them into who they are today.

On February 20, 1895, Frederick Douglass passed away at approximately 77 years old in Washington, D.C. A towering figure in American history, Douglass escaped slavery to become one of the nation's most powerful voices for abolition, justice, and equality. His autobiography, “Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, an American Slave,” exposed the brutal realities of slavery and remains a cornerstone of Black literature. As an orator, he captivated audiences, demanding the end of bondage and the fulfillment of America's democratic promise. After emancipation, he fought tirelessly for Black civil rights, women's suffrage, and Reconstruction policies to protect freedpeople. His death marked the loss of a revolutionary leader, but his words and legacy continue to inspire the fight for freedom and justice today. Learn more about your ad choices.

Frederick Douglass (1818–1895) was a towering figure in the history of the United States, occupying the vanguard of the nation's struggle for African-American civil rights during the nineteenth century. Near the end of his celebrated career, Douglass visited Charleston in the spring of 1888 as part of a lecture tour across several Southern states. His brief tenure in the Palmetto City inspired members of the local Black community, while their frank conversations challenged Douglass' view of the state of American racial politics.

In Stay Black and Die: On Melancholy and Genius (Duke UP, 2023), I. Augustus Durham examines melancholy and genius in black culture, letters, and media from the nineteenth century to the contemporary moment. Drawing on psychoanalysis, affect theory, and black studies, Durham explores the black mother as both a lost object and a found subject often obscured when constituting a cultural legacy of genius across history. He analyzes the works of Frederick Douglass, Ralph Ellison, Marvin Gaye, Octavia E. Butler, and Kendrick Lamar to show how black cultural practices and aesthetics abstract and reveal the lost mother through performance. Whether attributing Douglass's intellect to his matrilineage, reading Gaye's falsetto singing voice as a move to interpolate black female vocality, or examining the women in Ellison's life who encouraged his aesthetic interests, Durham demonstrates that melancholy becomes the catalyst for genius and genius in turn is a signifier of the maternal. Using psychoanalysis to develop a theory of racial melancholy while “playing” with affect theory to investigate racial aesthetics, Durham theorizes the role of the feminine, especially the black maternal, in the production of black masculinist genius.

In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Isaiah Douglass, the host of the Vet Success Podcast, about how data can revolutionize veterinary marketing. We dove deep into the ways practices can use data to not just attract but also engage and retain clients. It's packed with insights that are especially valuable for veterinary practices eager to leverage data effectively. We kicked things off by discussing the importance of demographic data in shaping marketing strategies. I emphasized how crucial it is to understand the local population's values and preferences rather than relying on assumptions about an ideal client. Isaiah and I both agreed that moving beyond assumptions and focusing on real community data can lead to more successful marketing outcomes. As we continued our conversation, we explored the significance of identifying target audiences based on buying styles and preferences. Isaiah shared how understanding whether potential clients are bargain hunters or value quality can shape marketing strategies. I added that finding a "starving audience" those eager for the services a practice offers - is key to successful marketing. We also touched on the types of data practices should collect, such as drive-time reports, to make informed strategic decisions. Isaiah highlighted the importance of making data actionable, sharing examples of how demographic insights can reveal growth opportunities. We wrapped up by discussing the role of psychographics in crafting resonant marketing messages and how practices can collaborate with local businesses to enhance visibility. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to navigate the complexities of data-driven marketing in the veterinary field.

[00:05:52] Robert reflects on the early days of Drupal and the challenges in making open source sustainable. He notes how the community was initially driven by passion, with few paid opportunities.

Hey, Sisters. Ever wondered what it might be like to parent an Olympic gold medal champion? On this episode, we interview Olympic mom Allison Douglass. Allison's daughter, swimmer Kate Douglass, won two gold, two silver, and one bronze medal in last summer's Paris Olympics. Allison talks frankly about their family's journey, culminating in Kate's impressive showing at the 2024 Summer Olympics. If you're anything like us, you may believe that parents of elite athletes push their children mercilessly and sacrifice all to get them to the pinnacle of their sports careers. Allison and her husband chose a different path; allowing Kate to make the decisions and commitments necessary to reach such athletic heights -- while balancing their commitments to family stability and their other children. If you think you might be parenting a future elite athlete, or you're simply interested in how one family parented theirs, you won't want to miss this episode.
Welcome in as we wrap up our conversation with Isaiah Douglass of Swan Bitcoin. Be sure to check out Part One if you missed it, as we lay the groundwork by discussing what Bitcoin is, how it's different than the broad term "cryptocurrency," whether or not it's too late to invest, and much more! For today's episode, we tackle some of the below questions: -How does the current political landscape impact Bitcoin? -How much should investors allocate to Bitcoin? -Where could Bitcoin realistically get to in the next 10 years? -And since this has been a very pro-Bitcoin conversation, I ask Isaiah to present his strongest argument AGAINST Bitcoin. We will tackle additional challenges to Bitcoin in a future episode, but I found this interesting as Isaiah shared a concern that wasn't on my radar. *this episode was recorded in video format, and will soon be available on our channel: YouTube Connect with Loren: Share More & Get in Touch Podcast Page More from Isaiah Douglass: Twitter | LinkedIn Swan Private Learn Bitcoin (805) 410-3195
Tori from Go Home Bible You're Drunk comes back on to talk about growing up in the church, leaving, her family and authoritarian parenting.
On this day (Dec. 3) in 1847, Frederick Douglass launched his own newspaper, “The North Star,” after years of reading and being inspired by William Lloyd Garrison's “The Liberator.” Renowned for its bold stance against slavery, the paper amplified Douglass's voice as a leading abolitionist, building on his influential 1845 autobiography, Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass, An American Slave, which had galvanized the abolition movement. Relocating to Rochester, New York, Douglass published the first edition, declaring, “Justice must be done, the truth must be told … I will not be silent.” A tireless advocate for equality across race, gender, and nationality, Douglass used the paper to champion justice and freedom. “The North Star” was published until 1851, when it merged with the Liberty Party Paper to become Frederick Douglass' Paper.

In this episode of What's Up Waco, we chat with Jeff Payne, General Manager of Douglass Subaru, about why Subarus are a surprisingly perfect fit for Texas living. Known for their rugged dependability, Subarus are ideal for navigating dirt roads and outdoor adventures, while their sleek design also complements a downtown lifestyle. Jeff highlights Subaru's exceptional safety ratings, which include consistent recognition from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). Subaru's advanced safety features, such as EyeSight Driver Assist Technology and superior crashworthiness, make these vehicles a top choice for families and safety-conscious drivers. Erica's favorite part: we discuss Subaru's dedication to community through their Love Promise, a commitment to making a positive impact on both a national and local scale. A cornerstone of this promise is the annual Share the Love Event, which has donated nearly $320 million to charities across the country since its inception. In Waco, the 2023 Share the Love Event enabled Douglass Subaru to donate $20,000 to two local organizations: Meals on Wheels Waco and Fuzzy Friends Rescue. Through this initiative, in 2024 Subaru will donates $325 for every new vehicle sold or leased during the event, allowing customers to support causes they care about while the dealership adds an extra local contribution.

Frederick Douglass' 1852 speech, “What to the Slave is the Fourth of July” remains one of the defining rebukes to the work of the Founders. While Douglass admired the ideals of the Founders, their inability to extend their precepts of liberty to people of color Douglass considered a breach of the promise of America. Frederick Douglass scholar and performer Nathan Richardson talks with us about Douglass' use of the founding ideals to fight for the emancipation of people of color and the absolute abolition of slavery.Nathan Richardson is a published author, performance poet, and Frederick Douglass Historian.Tell us what you think!

Before the digital age, activists like Ida B. Wells and Frederick Douglass used their writing to expose injustice. Today, in the era of social media, smartphones now serve as powerful tools for counter-investigation—capturing evidence, connecting stories, and reaching diverse communities. How are artists, activists, and everyday people using these methods to fight for truth and justice, and what connection do Wells and Douglass have to this movement? Today's guest has got you covered. Michael Ralph is an anthropologist, filmmaker, and interdisciplinary scholar whose most recent work, a graphic novel called Before 13th, explores the little-known feud between Ida B. Wells and Frederick Douglass, particularly how their collaboration impacted the 13th Amendment and its effect on enslavement and modern-day incarceration.

Cumulatively, over the 3 stops of the 2024 World Cup circuit, Kate Douglass and Regan Smith broke 5 worlds records, 11 American records, and earned over $330,000. And they did it all for the plot. Even though the duo planned to attend the World Cup together months in advance, neither had many expectations going into the series after taking substantial time out of the pool following the Olympic Games in Paris. Both Smith and Douglass' number one priority was enjoying their time together and rolling with whatever was thrown their way, which ended up being quite a lot. However, the Olympic champions took what came to them in stride, improving at each of the three stops and ending the series as the top two performers and money earners.
