We've come to the end of another year at LTA headquarters. Normally, I'd be doing a wrap up with friends in the music community as to their favourite discoveries of the year.......I wasn't feeling like doing that this year. If there's one thing that's consistent with this podcast, it's inconsistency. Welcome to episode 181 of Love That Album. For ages, I'd been wanting to put together a show to discuss a selection of records from the ECM label. ECM was started in 1969 by Manfred Eicher. The label started out dedicated to jazz exclusively, but it has branched out into classical recordings as well – no surprise seeing as Eicher was trained as a classical musician. ECM has been home to so many wonderful musicians....too many to include in what is effectively a sampler episode of its work. I have been glad to have made friends with a lovely fellow in the LTA Facebook group, Ed Ross. I've known two important things about him – he loves his puns (the more you groan, the more he feels his work is done), and he loves his music, particularly power pop and jazz. I approached him to see if he'd be interested in chatting with me on the show about four important ECM records, and was very happy when he agreed. As is LTA's way, there are many digressions and references to other artists and albums, but the intended focus is on these records: Keith Jarrett – The Koln Concert Pat Metheny Group – Offramp John Abercrombie – Timeless Gary Burton and Chick Corea – Crystal Silence If you're a longtime fan of ECM, don't ask why wasn't some other artist or album focused on....unless you're volunteering to join me for volume 2 of this series.....if you know nothing about the label, download, grab a beverage, and let Ed and myself tell you stories about broken pianos, guitars that sound like battle horns, and the greatest drummer in jazz (I won't hear any arguments about this). Huge thanks to Ed for making himself and his knowledge available for the show. First time guest – it won't be his last. BUT WAIT.....there's more. I'd asked the LTA FB group to send me their thoughts about their favourite ECM recordings. I received two emails from my long time friend Rani Gerszonovicz (who introduced ECM to me when we were in our early 20s) and last month's guest, author / musician Lisa Torem. I read their correspondences during the show, and Ed and I muse over their opinions. Thanks so much, Rani and Lisa. Download this episode of LTA from your podcast app of choice (not Spotify).

In this insightful episode of Honey and Hustle, I had the pleasure of speaking with Ed Ross, the founder of Core AI. Our conversation delved into the nuances of authentic leadership and the transformative power of effective communication in the workplace. Ed emphasized that time does not equate to experience or expertise, and that individuals should be encouraged to lead in areas where they excel. We explored the importance of storytelling in presentations and how it can make information more memorable and engaging. Ed provided valuable insights into how every conversation, whether it's with a large audience or a one-on-one interaction, counts towards building relationships and influencing others.A particularly touching story was shared about Ed's mentor, Connie, who played a pivotal role as a sponsor in his career by providing support and opportunities for growth. This story highlighted the difference between a manager, a mentor, and a sponsor, and the profound impact a sponsor can have on an individual's professional journey.We also touched on the challenges faced by Black founders in raising capital and how Ed has navigated this landscape with the support of angel investors and strategic partnerships. The episode concluded with a rapid-fire Q&A session, where Ed shared his indispensable business tool, his alternative career choice (which is none, as he loves what he does), and a description of his brand, which is all about authenticity and helping others.Find him online at: https://michiganmanchester.com----Submit a Question: https://www.honeyandhustle.co/questionJoin Our Community on Substack: https://pleasehustleresponsibly.substack.com/Use Our Affiliate Links: https://www.honeyandhustle.co/digitaltoolsSponsor The Podcast: https://www.honeyandhustle.co/sponsorsBuy The Interview Workbook for Storytellers: https://www.blurb.com/b/11662269-interview-workbook-for-storytellersSubscribe To Our YouTube Channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/AngelaHollowellFollow Us On Twitter: https://twitter.com/honeyandhustleConnect With Angela on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/angelahollowell/

What we wear reflects who we are, and who we aspire to be. Research suggests the garments we wear can also affect our mental state in positive, and negative, ways. Wearing different clothing changes how we feel, and how others perceive us. Can fashion really make us feel better about ourselves? A panel of experts at the Queensland Museum discusses.

Such a different interviewing style to what I've usually accustomed too. Very layed back, very funny, very insightful. In this episode, of CTM, Trademutt co-founders, Dan Allen and Ed Ross join me on the couch. The boys go into detail with regards to how they started up Trademutt, with the aim to ultimately help those that are struggling mentally. How in 2014 , Dan Allen lost his close mate, Dan, to suicide. Which ultimately led to Dan and Ed starting up Trademutt. The importance of starting a conversation with someone that looks to me struggling, had also been covered. The boys do also pay mention to Tiacs, which is a non-for-profit organisation that is joint with Trademutt. Which essentially allows people to reach out to a fully qualified Psychologist. Whether it be over the phone, via text, or in person. Whilst it being completely free of charge, zero appointment waiting times, and you can have as many appointments with the psych as you feel like you need. The overall message that Dan and Allen want the listeners, you guys, to get out of this episode, is to give up a few minutes out of your day , to check up on someone. You never know, as through this action you could allow someone to have a 'click' moment, a point of realisation, to start the healing process, or it could honestly just make there day.

In this episode of Add To Cart, we are joined by Ed Ross, Co-founder of TradeMutt, the home of funky workwear with an important message. After working on cattle stations and doing a Ag diploma, Ed found himself in Brisbane working as a Carpenter. He and another tradie mate got delivered some devastating news, which inspired them to change what workwear looks like and make a real impact on mental health in the construction industry and beyond.

This week we're taking a slightly different turn but it's still along the lines of people and stories. This week is mens health week and from family scares to friends experiencing serious complications it's just an area that you can't be too cautious. One area that hits closer to home than most and to be honest it feels a bit weird because I don't think I've ever said it aloud is Mental Health. I vividly remember at school, the area that would have the greatest impact on our lives in those early years post school would be car accidents. Fast forward and suicide was the number one reason I was attending funerals, and it was for men of all ages. Trade Mutt From stock camps to construction – Ed Ross has lived a lot of experiences. In 2018 he founded a business with his good mate Dan Allen called Trade Mutt. This story is one of a pretty cool journey and it has a long way to go, from a few funky work shirts to shifting the conversations around mental health from construction, to mining to farming. I tell you what these shirts are like nothing you have ever seen before! Mental health landscape has been segregated to be clouded in negativity, when in fact as Ed says – "we all have mental health and it's a spectrum from happiness, love and joy through to mental illness with depression and anxiety". This is a conversation starter (TIACS.org) – text back service where you can get access to a psychologist. Available to anyone and everyone. Whether its financial troubles, personal struggles or you're needing to have a chat – absolutely reach out to them! Lifeline is available on 13 11 14 There are a few swear words but this conversation is a really tough one, but it's the tough ones that are so incredibly important. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/humans-of-agriculture/message
In today's episode we explore what it's like to be a tradie with Ed Ross from Trademutt. We talk about the financial, relationship and culture pressures that contribute to poor mental health in the industry and how Dan & Ed are using loud workwear to stimulate conversations around mental health and make it ok for guys to speak up. Quick note - the sound at the beginning is a bit screwy and there is a language warning with this one - not safe for kids or work. But the message is strong and there is something in here for all of us. LOVED THIS CHAT!!Buy some gear at www.trademutt.com

Conservative talk radio from the outskirts of the hub of Western Civilization Critical mass in nuclear science is the smallest amount of fissile material needed for a sustained nuclear chain reaction. Critical mass in international politics is the smallest amount of aggression needed to start a war. Despite what President Obama and other Western leaders say and do, the situation in Ukraine may be fast approaching that point.

Conservative talk radio from the outskirts of the hub of Western Civilization. Like most conservatives, President Obama’s proposed reductions of the U.S. armed forces disturb me. Since after World War I, every time we have reduced our military strength after a war, we’ve regretted it. Nevertheless, it’s time to rethink the mission, size and composition of the U.S. military, preparing for the next war, not a repeat of the last one. It all comes down to the correct assumptions.

Sec. Kerry may or may not be right about the destruction global warming may ultimately cause; but he’s absolutely right about one thin. Global warming is a weapon. It’s a political weapon of mass destruction.
