In case you missed it, last week was NY Climate Week. There were well over 1,000 events — from summits with CEO and heads of state, to film screenings, concerts, parties, boat cruises, pitch sessions, hackathons and much more. I tried to sum up my experience at New York climate week in a special episode two years ago. This year, of course, the context was different with a US administration no longer interested in climate, and a lot of green hushing, hand wringing and new language that aims to be less politicizing.To me, one of the most interesting things about NY Climate Week is that it's not the only one. Climate weeks are spreading. San Francisco, Los Angeles, Washington DC, San Diego, Shanghai, Bangkok, Panama City all have climate weeks. There might be dozens more in the works. No city on the planet is immune from the impact of climate, and most cities have thriving ecosystems of organizations, innovators, investors, policymakers, researchers and more working to advance climate solutions and adapt to a changing planet. In this conversation I'm joined by Nishant Mani and Dan Thorman, co-founders of the LA Climate Week. Nishant and Dan saw a need to bring together their community. They volunteered to lead and have built LA Climate Week into a successful example that people anywhere can follow to create their own week of solidarity, learning and action. We talk about their backgrounds, the founding story of LA Climate Week, the impact of the LA wildfires on last year's event, lessons they've learned and much more. So whether or not you were in New York last week, I hope you'll enjoy this conversation and consider how you can help your local climate community wherever you are. On today's episode, we cover:1:22 – Recap of New York Climate Week & Spread of Climate Weeks3:43 – Nishant's Personal & Professional Background6:19 – Dan's Personal & Professional Background 10:16 – The Origin Story of LA Climate Week14:40 – The Role of Entertainment & Culture in LA Climate Week17:08 – Entertainment Industry's Role in Climate Movement18:33 – Impact of Wildfires on LA Climate Week24:47 – The Broader Role of Climate Weeks & Local Collaboration27:51 – Lessons Learned from Organizing LA Climate Week32:20 – Evolving the Structure and Infrastructure Involvement33:02 – Measuring Success and Growth of LA Climate Week36:44 – Community Engagement & Accessibility39:32 – Aspirations for the Future: Magic Wand Scenario42:21 – Future Planning and Event Announcement44:14 – Closing Remarks and Call to ActionResources MentionedLA Climate WeekClimate CapitalTerra.doReunionCollidescope FoundationJane Goodall InstituteConnect with usNishant ManiDan ThormanJason RissmanKeep...

Peso Pluma BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Peso Pluma's ascent over the past few days reads like a whirlwind of historic firsts and high-wattage headlines, blending global fashion influence with undeniable music power. According to multiple outlets including Hombre1, Hola, and QueOnda, Peso Pluma has just been named the first-ever Mexican-American ambassador for New York Fashion Week by the Council of Fashion Designers of America. This isn't a ceremonial title; it positions him centre stage as NYFW launches its Spring/Summer 2026 season at Rockefeller Center, joining a select cadre including club CFDA Chairman Thom Browne, mega-designers Michael Kors and Anna Sui, and co-ambassadors Young Miko and Anok Yai. Fashion insiders say his appointment marks a cultural shift—Peso Pluma is now the face of NYFW, spotlighting Latin music's growing influence beyond playlists and stadiums.Social media chatter and entertainment headlines are buzzing about his presence, as he'll be featured throughout NYFW Live at Rockefeller Center, broadcast events running September 11–16 and connecting American collections with the broader public for the first time. Peso Pluma's ambassador status comes on top of a breakout year: Hola reminds us that he's up for nine awards at the 2025 Billboard Latin Music Awards, including Artist of the Year, Hot Latin Songs Artist of the Year Male, and several nominations for his album Exodo. His recent single releases, including Morena (Remix) with Tiësto and Netón Vega and Desvelada with Oscar Maydon, are pulling big streaming numbers and drawing attention for their genre-blending sound—a fusion of classic Mexican corridos, EDM, and urban pop.In fashion, Peso Pluma's style clout has been on full display. Earlier this year, he debuted at Thom Browne's Fall/Winter show in signature threads, confirming his crossover appeal as both sartorial tastemaker and pop star. Public discussion on platforms like Instagram, X, and TikTok continues to amplify his public image, with fans and fashionistas alike sharing clips of his NYFW appearances and new festival bookings.On the business front, Billboard and Telemundo confirm his role as label boss at Double P Records in partnership with George Prajin, signaling a shift toward mentorship and industry leadership. Meanwhile, previous performance visas—and those of other Latin stars—were reportedly at risk due to tightened U.S. immigration rules, as reported by KNPR, but no verified accounts indicate any recent interruption in Peso Pluma's U.S. activity.In sum, Peso Pluma's latest milestones at New York Fashion Week and his nominations at the Billboard Latin Music Awards underline a transformative moment—not just for his résumé, but for the profile of música Mexicana and Latin culture worldwide. If there's speculation, it's simply about who he'll collaborate with next or which runway he'll conquer. For now, his star is burning brighter than ever, with every headline, streaming chart, and fashion week snapshot doubling as evidence.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Welcome to this week's Blonde Intelligence. I am your host Ms. Roni and I always seek to give you exquisite cranial repertoire. What's the difference between a true friend and someone who's just using you? Can authentic friendships exist in the cutthroat world of entertainment? These questions drive our unflinching exploration of friendship dynamics across both everyday life and the high-stakes entertainment industry.We dive deep into the "frenemy" phenomenon—that peculiar relationship marked by public camaraderie and private rivalry. Think about those reality TV personalities who smile in your face while talking behind your back, or industry colleagues who support you only when cameras are rolling. The entertainment world magnifies these dynamics, as careers often depend on who you know and how you leverage those connections. When Jay-Z claims he and Puffy were merely "business acquaintances" rather than friends, it reveals volumes about how relationships function when fame and fortune are on the line.The red flags of toxic friendships deserve your attention: constant criticism designed to make you feel inadequate, visible jealousy when you succeed, manipulation that positions you as the problem, attention-seeking behavior, and perhaps most telling—one-sided support where you're always giving but rarely receiving. We explore the psychology behind these dynamics and why so many of us ignore these warning signs until it's too late. Most importantly, we discuss the power of trusting your instincts. If you're constantly questioning someone's loyalty, that uncertainty itself is your answer.Ready to evaluate your own friendships with new clarity? Listen now, and don't forget to subscribe and share your experiences in the comments. Is there someone in your life who exhibits these toxic traits? Or have you found genuine connection despite the challenges of modern relationships? We want to hear your story.Support the show

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton's week has been nothing short of headline-making. According to Parade, she dazzled audiences at the opening of Dolly: A True Original Musical at Nashville's Fisher Center, a theatrical biography featuring new and classic songs. Dolly herself cowrote the book, and the stage adaptation stars three actresses portraying her at different stages of life, generating enthusiastic reviews. On Instagram, Dolly proudly showcased opening night highlights and ticket info, using the platform to connect directly with her fans. American Songwriter added that she wanted the musical staged while she's still alive and involved, a philosophy that feels pure Dolly—living legend advancing her legacy in real-time.Business-wise, Dolly is in expansion mode yet again. IMDB and Country Music Alley report she's branching into another yet-to-be-public business venture, with continued revenue power stemming from her unrivaled catalog of over 3,000 songs—valued at around $150 million—and her entertainment, amusement park, and philanthropic endeavors. FreeJobAlert pegged her net worth at $650 million this year, making clear she's more a cultural institution than mere celebrity. Much of this wealth cycles back into charity, particularly the Imagination Library and community scholarships, re-enforcing her “do good with what you've got” ethos.Major on-screen appearances are brewing: The Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra announced a visually ambitious Pops Series dedicated to Dolly's career, running September 19–20. Though Dolly will appear only virtually, the concerts feature hits like Jolene and I Will Always Love You, interwoven with personal stories and archived footage. In a statement, Dolly called the show “threads of my life woven together,” highlighting the significance of sharing her journey through orchestral arrangement.On the Broadway front, Dolly's Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol will tour again this season according to The Carson Center, with performances scheduled through November. Her classic narrative of redemption set in Depression-era Tennessee remains a perennial crowd-pleaser, and group ticket sales are already strong.Social media was abuzz when Dolly performed Jesus and Gravity at The O2 Arena, drawing excitement among British fans via accounts like PartonNews. Meanwhile, AOL reports Dolly's long-awaited Las Vegas residency has tickets flying, marking her first resident show in decades and sparking a flurry of fan anticipation.As for speculation, details on her rumored new business project remain tightly guarded amid a swirl of online chatter, but outlets like IMDB and Country Music Alley hint at a significant, possibly industry-shifting reveal in the coming months. For now, everything else is fully verified—Dolly Parton continues to thread herself more intimately into America's cultural and musical fabric by the day.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

He shares openly about growing up with fear and health anxiety, the impact of early emotional neglect, and the long process of stepping into personal responsibility and self-worth. We explore how EMDR helped him rewire long-held patterns, how COVID became a catalyst for questioning mainstream narratives, and why he draws a hard line when it comes to using AI in creative work. This is a conversation about value, alignment, and what it takes to stop living at odds with yourself…personally, relationally, and vocationally.Time Stamps 02:19 - Nick Jobe: The Writing Coach 03:18 - The Journey of Fear and Imagination 11:35 - Navigating Growth Through Adversity 16:32 - Transitioning Life in Los Angeles 24:38 - Navigating Trauma and Healing 28:42 - Reframing Trauma and EMDR Therapy 35:12 - The Value Explosion: A Journey to Self-Worth 42:20 - The Awakening: Understanding Media Influence 48:32 - Disrupting the Entertainment Industry 57:02 - The Weaponization of Humility in the Entertainment Industry 01:02:20 - The Impact of AI on Artistic Integrity 01:04:47 - The Impact of AI on Artistic Expression 01:10:57 - The Impact of Language Models on Creative Writing 01:16:08 - The Value of Personal Creativity 01:23:18 - The Impact of AI on Creativity 01:26:15 - Navigating Creative Blocks and Tools Guest Linkshttps://www.pageonetv.com/https://www.beyondthescript.tv/Connect with UsSubscribe to Here for the Truth FridaysTake the Real AF Test NowDiscover Your Truth Seeker ArchetypeJoin our membership Friends of the TruthWatch all our episodesConnect with us on TelegramAccess all our links

John and Craig plant the idea for setups that have the most satisfying payoffs. Different from exposition, setups introduce ideas and concepts to an audience, priming them for a later revelation. They look at the sleight of hand required to have your setups deftly planted, take root in your audience's mind, and grow into something delightful. But first, we look at the new California tax credits, the 2025 WGA annual report, follow up on AI and VFX, postmodernism, and verticals. We also answer listener questions on music videos and outing yourself to potential employers. In our bonus segment for premium members, John and Craig look at the New York Times' new list of the 100 best movies of the 21st century. We all know Craig loves pitting movies against each other, so there's definitely no umbrage here.
