A brief book review of the 2018 book by Greg Lukianoff and Jonathan Haidt entitled, "THE CODDLING OF THE AMERICAN MIND: HOW GOOD INTENTIONS AND BAD IDEAS ARE SETTING UP A GENERATION FOR FAILURE."I go over key points cited for creating witch hunts and read over a few of the book reviews by people from various social and political standings. It's a challenging read but an important one for our current times, and it has a lot to do with Charlie Kirk's mission to speak openly on American colleges and universities.Photo: RJ @ "The Last Bookstore" in DTLA

We start Part 7 off where the show began, way back in Episode ZERO, which we first released on SOUND CLOUD as a pilot for a potential series, with an interview with Annie Saunders of Wilderness, whose The Day Shall Declare It jump started that renaissance era and got the local performing arts world taking things seriously.Annie and I look back on that, and on the roadblocks that have kept her from making work here at that scale since. And then I talk to some of the other folks who come up in our conversation and those who helped shape the way I thought about and moved through the LA arts scene — like Lauren Ludwig and Monica Miklas of Capital W, and designer Tommy Honton who did so much work on the permitting crisis that hit LA in the wake of tragic events in Northern California in 2016. And, of course, Jacob Patterson, who ran Think Tank Gallery in DTLA and gave countless projects and artists a home… including this podcast for a while.One last jaunt through LA for Season One.

Erik Menendez was denied parole at his first-ever hearing—36 years and a day after he and his brother Lyle killed their parents, Jose and Kitty Menendez. The board pointed to his prison behavior, past burglaries before the murders, and especially the killing of his mother in their decision. Now, all eyes are on Lyle's parole outcome. Michael Monks and members of the DTLA Residents Association met with city officials and business leaders to address one of downtown's toughest challenges: homelessness tied to acute mental illness episodes.

Then, a Conway Show sing-along breaks out as Tim explores the world of public domain songs and how they become royalty-free classics.

Tim wraps up by celebrating the latest upgrades at his favorite airport, Burbank, and welcomes Breeze Airways to the terminal—while ranting about tip jars and overpriced snacks.
DTLA was hollowed out and vacant for much of the 20th Century. . .but the arrival of Staples Center heralded a renaissance. Restaurants, bars, lofts, studios, apartments, even hotels were filling the area with vivaciousness & energy that hadn't been felt in 70 years. But then came COVID, and the wave of crime & homelessness, which still hasn't abated. Today, more than 33% of businesses and residences are vacant and legacy restaurants are closing weekly. So what happened? This is the Demise of Downtown L.A.

From a Craigslist Canon to Cinematic Dreams: The Story of B.P. In this episode of Visual Intonation, we sit down with B.P., a Pasadena-born cinematographer and founder of BEARVISION Photography & Design. What began with a humble Canon T3i purchased off Craigslist turned into a multi-city journey through the lens—one that has taken him from Indiana arts festivals to feature films and high-profile collaborations with brands like Amazon, HOORAE, and Buzzfeed. B.P. shares how his early days in photography laid the groundwork for a career behind the camera that now spans narrative films, music videos, and branded content.No Film School, Just Vision Though he earned a degree in Computer Science, B.P. never saw ones and zeros—he saw frames, ratios, and light. With no formal training in film, he instead learned by doing, building BEARVISION into a platform that champions opportunity, creativity, and truth. His story is proof that passion, grit, and a good eye can take you just as far as a diploma. From being reposted by Saweetie to becoming an Associate Member of the Society of Camera Operators, B.P. recounts the moments that helped him level up—on set, and in life.A Production Day, The BEARVISION Way For B.P., a shoot doesn't start when the camera rolls—it starts weeks before with pre-production plans, call sheets, and crew coordination. Whether it's a music video in DTLA or a psychological thriller with an Emmy-winning director, he treats each set like family: honest communication, shared breakfast, and a stretch before action. He opens up about the gear he swears by, including his BPM Quarter filters and trusty production monitor, and why even a Cardellini Clamp deserves more love.Advice from the Trenches If you're a young filmmaker wondering where to begin, B.P. offers this: be opportunistic. Don't wait for a title or paycheck to prove your worth. He built his calling card on a passion project—Just Friends—that earned nothing upfront but opened every door that followed. Tune in to hear how BEARVISION became more than a brand—it became a movement, a team, and a testament to betting on yourself.Website: www.bearvisionpnd.comInstagram: www.instagram.com/bpedwardsdopLinkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bpedwards/Support the showVisual Intonation Website: https://www.visualintonations.com/Visual Intonation Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/visualintonation/Vante Gregory's Website: vantegregory.comVante Gregory's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/directedbyvante/ To support me on Patreon (thank you): patreon.com/visualintonations Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@visualintonation Tiktok: www.tiktok.com/@directedbyvante

//The Wire//2000Z June 11, 2025////PRIORITY////BLUF: INDICATIONS AND WARNINGS EMERGE REGARDING DEVELOPMENTS IN MIDDLE EAST. RIOTS CONTINUE TO EXPAND IN MANY MAJOR U.S. CITIES. RIOTS IN NORTHERN IRELAND BECOME MORE KINETIC.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE------International Events-Middle East: Indications and warnings are growing regarding an unknown threat to the United States throughout the region. Reports have emerged indicating that the US Navy base in Bahrain is at an increased defensive posture, and that non-essential staffers and their families are currently being evacuated from the American Embassies in Baghdad, Kuwait, and Bahrain. A few moments ago the UKMTO office also issued a very vague warning statement, advising mariners to be advised of increasing tensions through the Strait of Hormuz.AC: At the moment, none of this is confirmed, but the rumors are trickling out anyway, since this appears to be a very time-sensitive threat, whatever it is. Nobody knows what's going on for sure, but a lot of diplomatic stations and military bases are at an increased level of readiness right now, which looks to be related to a very specific threat of some kind. Shooting from the hip (without any solid detail to go on), this could be related to an imminent Iranian nuclear test, or it could be related to Israel launching pre-emptive strikes to prevent such. Either way, the threat is extremely vague, but the heightened readiness seems real enough.Northern Ireland: Protests transitioned into rioting throughout several cities overnight, from a few different perspectives. Originally, riots broke out over the weekend in response to immigration issues and the assault of a child. However, as unrest has spread, opportunistic criminals have taken advantage of the fray to conduct looting that was unrelated to the initial incident.-HomeFront-USA: Counter-ICE protests have emerged in several major cities around the nation. So far, most of the more disruptive events have taken place in Los Angeles, Dallas, Austin, Seattle, Chicago, Atlanta, NYC, Providence, and Denver.Ohio: This morning evacuations were ordered for Vinton County after an industrial accident occurred at a local explosives factory in McArthur. Local authorities state that a very large tank of nitric acid began leaking at Austin Powders this morning, prompting the creation of a substantially large evacuation zone. The FAA has also placed a 30-mile Temporary Flight Restriction over the facility as the contents of the tank continue to present a hazard to the general area.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: Last night the city of Los Angeles implemented a curfew for the city center, in an attempt to quell the rioting. Mass arrests were made in the DTLA area, however a state of civil unrest remains as demonstrations and protests have remained fairly persistent over the past week.Regarding the protest events for this weekend nationwide, roughly 1,655 events are scheduled for June 14th, most of which are being conducted and organized by the "No Kings" cause. Of course, it is highly likely that not all of these 1,600+ events will take place. However, there is always the possibility that areas which have no history of political unrest may be the recipient of general shenanigans this weekend.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.obsidian.md/s2underground//END REPORT//
