(Leavin' on a jet plane this afternoon, so posting a day or so early!) It is a wonderful thing when friends share a favorite singer. Such is the case with my friend of long-standing, Julian Long (once one reaches a certain age, one no longer uses the term “old friend”). As part of this month's series of Listeners' Favorites episodes, Julian has been kind enough to record a new intro for a Countermelody episode that I posted three years ago as a birthday tribute to the marvelous Finnish baritone Jorma Hynninen, who on April 3 will celebrate his 83rd birthday. Unlike me, Julian heard Hynninen many times in both opera and, especially, recital. This episode focuses on Hynninen's prowess as a singer of art song, beginning with some choice German Lieder recordings, but ultimately focusing on the songs of his native Finland. We hear Hynninen in performances across the span of his entire career, from 1968 through 2015. Needless to say, their great compatriot Jean Sibelius is foregrounded, but, there are a surprising number of fascinating composers in this magisterial country whose work also rewards exploration. If the music of Oskar Merikanto, Yrjö Kilpinen, Erik Bergman, Selim Palmgren, Fredrik Pacius, Väino Hannikainen, Taneli Kuusisto, or Toivo Kuula is not familiar to you, prepare to be delighted, surprised, and moved by the depth and variety of their creation. Soile Isokoski also joins Hynninen in an excerpt from the cantata Der Ochs und sein Hirte by Hynninen's multi-talented pianist Rolf Gothóni, who is heard in many of the selections. The program concludes with Hynninen's perusal of both pop standards and tango, both sung in Finnish. Don't mind Julian and me as we go off to individually nurse our mutual crush! Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and journalist yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

New Residency at The WREN in the Watermark Hotel Hi there I have a new residency! For December, Industry Night is hosted by WREN in the Watermark Hotel. This area is on fire! An entire town center has built up on the other side of the highway from what you traditionally think of as Tysons. Here in the Watermark Hotel is the Japanese izakaya, Wren. Chef Yo Matsuzaki draws upon locally-grown ingredients and serves Japanese street food with modern American elements. Think shucked oysters and expertly-cut sashimi and wagyu steak. There's also an incredible Omakase menu, and do not get me started on the cocktail program. And I don't have to because old friend Erik Bergman, Director of Restaurants & Bars is joining me later. Even later in the show, I'm excited to nerd out with two industry veterans, Des Reilly and Kris Carr, both co-founders of SRG Concepts. You may not know the SRG concept name, but you know Chicken and Whisky and Doi Moi! But first! Where have I been?! Where haven't I? Centrolina — Been a minute since I've caught up with Amy Brandwien at Centrolina and she is still hitting the ball over the fence. It was a Chefs For Equality celebratory luncheon since we raised a half a million! -Bombay Club — 35 years young! Congrats to Ashok Bajaj oh this incredible anniversary. This gorgeous reimagined space and anniversary menu features iconic classics like crab masala & spicy green chile chicken -Corso — It's a new restaurant from Jill Erber of Cheestique. Are you ready? Chef Cathal Armstrong is back in the kitchen spinning up pasta. Classic family Italian - rigatoni bolognese, porchetta, Italian wines - in Shirlington —so needed -STC — As You Like IT — A mash-up of the Bard and the Beatles equals a toe-tapping, sing a long experience. Who knew I'd be singing and swaying during a Shakespeare performance?! Oh Erik Berman, you are up! Erik Bergman Director of Restaurants & Bars at The Watermark Hotel Now, I remember when the Chicken and Whisky concept opened on 14th Street. I loved that it was all business in the front and party in the back. I didn't know who was behind the concept — a rarity, I know - but I liked it and thought this is an excellent addition to the 14th Street neighborhood. Fast forward several years, and I finally met Des Reilly. Des & his business partner, Kris Carr are co-founders of SRG Concepts. They both have deep roots in the industry and have their hands in several concepts, including the C&W expansion as well as taking over the beloved Doi Moi — formerly owned by Mark Kuller — Featured Guests: Des Reilly and Kris Carr He/him/his + he/him/his Des - Managing Principal, Co-Founder, SRG Concepts; Kris - Managing Principal, Co-Founder, SRG Concepts Highlites with time stamps: Guests Social Media Links: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chickenandwhiskey Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chickenpluswhiskey https://www.facebook.com/TheWalrusNationalHarbor https://www.facebook.com/doimoidc Twitter: https://x.com/chicken_whiskey?s=20 Quotes "Stay true to yourself, reject BS, and present a united front to earn your staff's support." - Des Reilly "Our goal: a neighborhood bar that surpasses expectations, ensuring exceptional experiences and a guarantee of fun." - Kris Carr Chapters 00:00 - Introduction 04:02 - Promoting Human Rights Through Culinary Excellence 09:43 - City Center Chronicles: Unveiling the New Development 11:21 - A Decade of Deliciousness: Celebrating 10 Years in the Restaurant Industry 16:19 - From Insight to Success: Jamie Mulholland's Impact 18:04 - Navigating the Unknown: Embracing Fluid Situations 21:21 - Bartenders to Masters: Rising Through Operations and Creativity 24:48 - Vibrant City Vibes: Praising Diversity and Energy 28:35 - The Fortunate Second: Aligning with Key Operators 30:55 - Simplicity as the Backbone: Unveiling the Operational Approach 34:24 - Dive Bar Dreams: Chris' Vision Takes Shape 36:41 - Alma Cucina Latina: A Worthwhile Indulgence 41:05 - Uniquely 14th Street: Irreplaceable Charm 43:58 - Reflecting on 2023: A Year of Growth and Lessons 47:48 - From Friend to Colleague: Meeting Jason Koehler and Joining the Team 51:09 - Collaborative Success: Making Decisions and Pitching Together 52:33 - Turning Negatives into Positives: Successful Adaptations 57:19 - Stay True, Unite, and Persevere: The Recipe for Success 59:00 - Outro Featuring Nycci Nellis https://www.instagram.com/nyccinellis/ https://www.thelistareyouonit.com/ Produced by Heartcast Media http://www.heartcastmedia.com

A month ago the great Finnish baritone Jorma Hynninen turned 80, and on May 2, his closest collaborator, the Finnish pianist Ralf Gothóni turned 75. We celebrate these two birthdays somewhat belatedly, but no less enthusiastically, with a program comprised primarily of art song, beginning with some choice German Lieder recordings, but ultimately focusing on the songs of their native Finland. We hear Hynninen in performances across the span of his entire career, from 1968 through 2015. Needless to say, their great compatriot Jean Sibelius is foregrounded, but, as is often the case in this country, there are a surprising number of fascinating composers whose work in this genre rewards further exploration.

Soile Isokoski also joins the gentlemen in an excerpt from Gothóni’s cantata Der Ochs und sein Hirte. And Hynninen gives further evidence of his versatility with performances of pop standards and tango. Hyvää myöhästynyttä syntymäpäivää, Maestri!

Erik Bergman is one of the most successful entrepreneurs in Sweden who made $50 million dollars before the age of 30. However, Erik Bergman came from humble beginnings and never considered having a lot of money as his goal in life. Right after school he started his own company - Catena Media and consequently acquired 20 different companies. In 2017, he had made enough money to not have to work another day in his life. Erik was not content here though, he was going through some personal and health problems he needed to overcome. This was actually the start of his journey in finding and accepting himself. Consequently, Erik travelled to Ghana and donated $13,000 to construct a school there. In 2018 he founded Great.com, a company focused on making as much money as possible- only to give 100% of its profits to climate change initiatives.  In this episode we will hear about Erik's life philosophy, his routines, keys to success, but also his best tips to people on finding clarity in your life, and how to achieve real happiness in life.

Why philanthropy? It might seem like a big question, but you can’t help but ask it if you’ve got someone who’s doing so well in an area that gives them a lot of money and would have given them a lot more, but somehow found it in themselves to walk away and focus on other things. In a previous episode, we saw such a person in Erik Bergman, the online gambling genius who went on to found Great.com, an online casino affiliation business that devotes 100% of its profits to climate change advocacy. This time, Joshua Rhodes brings in Erik’s partner in crime, Emil Ekvardt. Emil had a huge wave of success in poker himself, having made a million dollars before he was 25 years old. Time went by and he started to ask himself, “What’s missing?” Eventually he found that his passion lay in doing things for a cause – which he found by joining Great.com. Listen in and pick up a ton of inspiration from his unique story. Plus, you’re in for a treat as Emil shares some cool information on how to capture information effectively and how to choose the charities that will make the most impact out of your donations.Love the show?

Becoming great doesn’t have to take $50 million, but having that kind of money doesn’t hurt when you’re trying to make a difference in the world. When Erik Bergman made that kind of money before he turned 30, it changed everything for him. But there is one crucial thing that didn’t change about Erik – and that is his passion to help and make an impact on the planet. So much so that he built an entire business in a money-hungry industry just so that he could devote 100% of its profits to a cause. Erik joins Joshua Rhodes in what might easily be the best interview Josh has ever had on his podcast, at least to date. Erik paints pictures with his words and his storytelling makes his already amazing journey even more compelling. Allow Eric to take you on a journey through the ins and outs of the online gambling business, the nitty-gritty of affiliate programs, what it feels like to close a multimillion dollar deal, and how he uses his money to find true fulfillment in his new venture, Great.com.

Networking is a very misunderstood term. Most people think that it's just about business - but your networking skills can even mean the difference between a sad and lonely life, and becoming rich and happy. Today we will teach you how we have found: - business partners - new clients - friends for life - and even love by simple techniques that are easy to learn. And stick with us to the end, because we will share with you how to write the perfect email if you want to find a mentor or get your dream job. The topic of today is How to network online and how to find inspiring friends. We have split the episode into four topics: 1. What does "networking" even mean, and why should you do it? 2. How to use social media for networking? 3. How to build a networking machine that works while you sleep? 4. How to write the perfect email to get a job or a mentor? With these four topics, you will be able to learn how to network online and how to find inspiring friends. -- Today's episode is a personal development episode, where Erik Bergman and Emil Ekvardt explore topics about how to grow as a person and get a better focus. We are both personal development junkies and spend many hours every week sharing our ideas and reading about new things. This episode is great for you who want to learn about our latest perspective. We share lots of personal stories, talk about how it applies in our lives, and where we have learned it from. -- In the first topic, we talk about how networking is a misunderstood term. What the differences are between networking wide and networking deep. How Erik started by networking very wide in his teenage years and how that has given a foundation for deep relationships today. It started with Erik asking himself "How to network online?" and "How to find inspiring friends?" In the second topic, we talk about what the easiest way to start networking online is. How you can use the social media traffic of big accounts to get yourself out there and find more people to inspire and that can be inspired by you. There are some tricks that surprisingly few are using that we will teach you. In the third topic, we are building networking machines that network for us. Once again we are utilizing social media but this time we teach you how to use your own account to find people with similar interests and make them come to you - a crucial part of how to network online and how to find inspiring friends. In the fourth and final topic, we dive into what might be the most important part. How to write a perfect email that makes someone wants to hire you, be your mentor, or even your business partner. Very few people know how to write great emails, so we will give you a step by step formula. -- Social media channels: http://linktr.ee/smilingerik http://linktr.ee/emil.e

Your dreams will never come true unless you beat the number, one dream killer - procrastination. Nothing is more frustrating than having a great idea, knowing what you should do, but for some reason not being able to get started. The key to beating procrastination is to build habits for better focus. With the right habits, you will get better focus and you can stay away from distractions. Today's episode is split up into four topics that will teach you 26 habits for better focus. 1. Why you procrastinate, and what actions to start with. The things you need to do once, that will still have a big impact. 2. It's not your willpower that is the problem, it's the environment and distractions around you. How do you change an environment that stops procrastination? 3. Biggest weapon against procrastination is to have friends that crush it. How do you find friends that are doers? 4. How to create a step by step plan that will increase your motivation and solves the procrastination traps. With these four topics, you will be able to build habits for better focus and stay away from distractions. -- Today's episode is a personal development episode, where Erik Bergman and Emil Ekvardt explore topics about how to grow as a person and get a better focus. We are both personal development junkies and spend many hours every week sharing our ideas and reading about new things. This episode is great for you who want to learn about our latest perspective. We share lots of personal stories, talk about how it applies in our lives, and where we have learned it from. -- In the first topic, we talk about the common advice of how to deal with procrastination - "just work harder". This is bad advice because it doesn't help you to get better focus, quite the opposite. It will make you feel worse about yourself which will make your performance weaker, not stronger. We touch upon how we struggle with procrastination ourselves and how it feels to deal with it. In the second topic, we look at what differentiates people that have lots of self-control from people who don't. What is it that the people with lots of self-control do, and how can you apply it in your life? This is the key to being less distracted and keep your focus. In the third topic, we look at one of the most powerful ways to stay focused on your goals. Finding friends who are inspiring doers. Surrounded by the right friend's everything is easier when it comes to staying focused. In the fourth and final topic, we look at how you can build your motivation so it's much easier to be focused. When you want something enough it's easier to stay engaged with it and limit your distractions. -- Social media channels: http://linktr.ee/smilingerik http://linktr.ee/emil.e

You are not alone. Today's episode has been split up into four topics: 1. Why we are overthinking? What is the reason that we struggle to get started even when we know what to do? 2. How to stop comparing ourselves with others? 3. What to do when we are feeling overwhelmed? 4. How to remove self-doubt? We are exploring why we are overthinking and how to stop overthinking. -- Today's episode is a personal development episode, where Erik Bergman and Emil Ekvardt explore topics about how to grow as a person. We are both personal development junkies and spend many hours every week sharing our ideas and reading about new things. This episode is great for you who want to learn about our latest perspective. We share lots of personal stories, talk about how it applies in our lives, and where we have learned it from. -- 1. In the first topic we are diving into why we are procrastinating and overthinking. What is it within us that stops us from taking action even though we know what to do? We explain the reasons behind it, when we are struggling with overthinking ourselves and what you can do to stop overthinking and procrastination. 2. In the second topic we are looking into how you can stop comparing yourself to others. One big reason for overthinking is that we compare ourselves and that causes us to feel bad, which lowers our energy and makes it harder for us to take action. To understand this is an important part of how to stop overthinking. 3. In the third topic we are explaining how we deal with the feeling of being overwhelmed. The feeling of not knowing where to start and feeling that there are too many things going on at the same time. How to break tasks down and make it easier to stop overthinking by getting a sense of control over the situation. 4. The fourth and final topic is about changing our mindset and the way we think about things around us. What meaning do we give to different situations and how can we shift that meaning to something that serves us better. One great way of how to stop overthinking is to get better at seeing hard things as challenges rather than problems. -- Social media channels: http://linktr.ee/smilingerik http://linktr.ee/emil.e

The day Erik Bergman turned 28, he made $15,000,000 by taking his company Catena Media public. Since then, he has devoted himself to charity through his project Great.com "the worlds most controversial charity". In this episode, we discuss if money can make you happy, and if raising money to charity by enticing gambling is ethical.

Can money buy happiness? ​A couple of years ago, Erik Bergman got crazy rich when his company went public. Erik lived his entire life with the certainty that money equals happiness, and he was expecting that from now on, everything would be amazing. The actual feeling of happiness might have lasted for a day, but after that, things felt pretty empty. Without the goals and something to strive for, money wasn’t worth much. Erik was going through a rough patch with the love of his life, and when love doesn’t work out, money is worth even less. This got Erik thinking.
