Podcasts about First generation

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Worn & Wound contributor Tommy DeMauro. Tommy has been writing for Worn & Wound for a little over a year, and his work occupies a very specific niche: accessible, affordable, and highly collectible vintage and neo-vintage watches. Tommy is uniquely obsessed with finding oddball references from years past and studying them deeply, and proves through his research that you don't have to spend much money at all to have something genuinely rare and special. Many of the watches Tommy writes about are eBay finds, and most are well under $500. Some are under $100. All of them, though, have something interesting going on in terms of their history, design, or functionality. In this conversation, Tommy explains how he got into watches in the first place and eventually found his niche with affordable vintage watches. They also discuss some of Tommy's articles that he's written for the website, including guides to the Seiko Orange Monster and the truly unusual Timex Triprix. Tommy also provides some advice to listeners who might be interested in dabbling in this corner of the watch market.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

Independent Africa: The First Generation of Nation Builders (Indiana UP, 2023)explores Africa's political economy in the first two full decades of independence through the joint projects of nation-building, economic development, and international relations. Drawing on the political careers of four heads of states: Kwame Nkrumah of Ghana, Ahmed Sékou Touré of Guinea, Léopold Sédar Senghor, and Julius Kambarage Nyerere of Tanzania, Independent Africa engages four major themes: what does it mean to construct an African nation-state and what should an African nation-state look like; how does one grow a tropical economy emerging from European colonialism; how to explore an indigenous model of economic development, a "third way," in the context of a Cold War that had divided the world into two camps; and how to leverage internal resources and external opportunities to diversify agricultural economies and industrialize. Combining aspects of history, economics, and political science, Independent Africa examines the important connections between the first generation of African leaders and the shared ideas that informed their endeavors at nation-building and worldmaking. Professor Akyeampong is the former Oppenheimer Faculty Director of the Harvard University Center for African Studies and the Ellen Gurney Professor of History and of African and African American Studies at Harvard University.

He was a co-chief editor with Henry Louis Gates, Jr., for the Dictionary of African Biography, 6 Vols. (2012).

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Kat Shoulders and Zach Weiss to chat about something that's on everyone's mind as of late: watch pricing. Specifically, we're wondering about the state of the “budget” watch, the space that used to be owned by inexpensive (and enthusiast favorite) Seiko sports watches. The landscape for these watches has changed considerably over the last several years, and in this episode we discuss potential reasons for that, who's filling the void, and provide some recommendations for enthusiasts (regardless of their experience level) on brands and watches to look out for that give you plenty of bang for your buck. Watch pricing is a hot topic right now, so don't hesitate to get in the comments below and tell us your thoughts on the state of Seiko, your favorite value oriented watches, or anything else related to the topic.  To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

This episode is dedicated to my family, especially my parents, who I appreciate more and more every year for everything they equipped my arsenal for life with. Happy AAPI month! This week, we are diving into my personal experiences as a first generation female Asian American from growing up in the 90s/2000s to understanding how to break generational habits and trauma as an adult. I chat about the obstacles this specific generation of American-born Asians go through from managing expectations to teaching our elders how to be emotionally equipped and break the chain of harmful cultural beliefs. Lastly, we discuss the phenomenon of "woke" culture and how to properly navigate it as a curious outsider and as an Asian American with the capabilities to educate others. Please keep in mind that this is just touching the surface of my experiences. I did my best to summarize. These are also solely my own experiences, so I am not speaking for anyone but myself. 

How different climates affects first generation immigrants? Guest: Vaid Tirath Singh, Ayurveda Practitioner Host: Shameel Jasvir, RED FM Toronto

Was hat Klimaschutz mit sozialer Gerechtigkeit zu tun? Viel! Das erfahren wir unter anderem von Rechtsanwältin Michaela Krömer, Spezialistin in Sachen Klima-, Umwelt- und Verfassungsrecht sowie Obfrau von Claw (Climate Law | Initiative für Klimarecht). Krömer reicht etwa Klimaklagen gegen den Staat ein. Außerdem lernen wir von Ökonomin Anna Wagner mehr über die Wichtigkeit, alle Menschengruppen in Sachen Klimaschutz nicht außen vorzulassen. Wagner organisiert mitunter die Armutskonferenz. Beide Expertinnen geben uns nicht nur Einblicke in ihre spannenden Aufgaben im Kampf für Klimagerechtigkeit, sondern teilen auch mit uns, wie sie dem täglichen „Wahnsinn” entkommen beziehungsweise was ihnen persönlich hilft, besser mit herausfordernden Themen wie der Klimakrise umzugehen.

Wealth is defined as the people Greg works with as having enough money to do what they want and need to do. They live in a “post-budget world.”  The first-generationwealthy are building their wealth in non-sexy ways, like consistent investing over time. This might be in their own companies or retirement accounts, for example. Most millionaires don't inherit money. They build wealth themselves slowly and consistently over time. All this talk about first-generation wealth begs the question about the second generation. How do you manufacture the hunger?The reasons for financial failure are 1) lack of purpose, 2) lack of a plan, and 3) lack of discipline. That's why the 3 financial superpowers are 1) Power of Purpose, 2) Power of Plan, and 3) Power of Execution. Having a purpose and a plan helps you avoid decision fatigue. You're also easily able to reset if you “mess up.” Having a clear purpose is the most important thing. You don't even need to have a high income! If you haven't started, though, it's important that you getstarted ASAP with an emergency fund (“financial shock absorber”). Having a plan keeps you from comparing yourself to others, which is key. You compare yourself to only yourself. Anybody can do this and become first-generation wealthy.If you liked this episode, you'll also like episode 199: the 3 pillars of prosperity.About Greg:The founder of Luken Wealth Management, Greg Luken.

Their identity is tied with the farm, the livestock, the daily tasks they perform and it can be tough to decouple from all that. Stephanie Hoff takes a closer look at how to deal with those challenges, and what options might work with University of Missouri Extension Farm Transition Specialist Wesley Tucker. Tucker was a guest at the Professional Dairy Producers annual business meeting in Madison. He says he helps explain ways individuals can maintain their identity as a farmer after "retirement" by transitioning to a role as an advisor/coach/mentor. They may even have more value in this position than when they were calling the shots. It's rare for a farmer to be able to let go of the farm completely. From a mental health standpoint, they need to have a sense of purpose with the farm.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this week's episode, host Daniel Raimi talks with Resources for the Future Fellow Brian C. Prest about the effects of US liquefied natural gas (LNG) exports. As the world's leading exporter of LNG, the United States has been ramping up capacity to produce and transport LNG to meet global demand. Prest describes how this increasing trend affects domestic oil and gas prices and the extent to which the federal government influences the production of oil and gas.

Praise from a Future Generation: The Assassination of John F. Kennedy and the First Generation Critics The Last Investigation: Fonzi, Gaeton, Russell, Dick, Fonzi, Marie: - Amazon.ca Len & Jim discuss Donald Trump's declaration to release the JFK, MLK & RFK files. Does Trump realize the magnitude of such a release & the resistance he will face? Rep. David Schweikert has introduced the Justice For Kennedy Act 2025 to have all JFK files released. The National Archives was obligated to release all archived JFK files in 2017. Joe Rogan & Judge Napolitana have kept the pressure on Trump to release the files. Before the Warren Commission was published, Vincent Salandria was a skeptic to the cover stories. Vincent Salandria travelled to Dallas with brother-in-law Harold Feldman & his wife Irma. The trio met with Marguerite Oswald, noting that Marguerite felt she was under surveillance. Harold Feldman was very impressed with Marguerite Oswald & her quest to prove Lee's innocence. Vincent's brother Harold stopped writing about the assassination around 1967-1968. Vincent, Harold, Irma & Marguerite visited Helen Markham's apartment a couple of times. Helen Markham was warned by the Dallas Police Department not to talk to Salandria & Feldman. After 1968, Vince decided it was pointless to fight the WC lies & government pushed forensics. Vincent & Harold's early articles helped forge the path for future researchers. People didn't like Vince because of his deep loyalty to Garrison. How could bullet C399 have been in such mint condition if one is to believe the single bullet theory? Epstein's book Inquest was the 1st critical book on the Warren Commission that had an impact. Shortly after Inquest is published, Epstein 'switches teams' which Salandria calls Epstein out for. Salandria attended a conference held by Arlen Spector where he confronted Spector about his bs theory. Gaeton Fonzi & Vincent Salandria became friends, which led to a taped interview with Arlen Spector. Fonzi was stunned at Spector's confused, halted answers to Gaeton's questions. HSCA Deputy Chief Counsel Robert Tanenbaum is publishing a book in the next few months! Jim & Len answer letters from Black Op Radio listeners. Was the 'Chicago Plot' a dry run for the assassination conspirators? What's going to happen in Canada with Justin Trudeau stepping down?

  Happy New Year. During the holidays, we can become more stressed, anxious, and sometimes depressed.  Perhaps there's too much work and you're struggling to find balance.  Perhaps a loved one passed away and you are mourning their loss.  Perhaps you're already feeling stretched so thin and traveling to see family is putting you on edge.   So instead of the usual interview with guests, this episode is dedicated to reconnecting with our bodies and our breath.  The meditation itself is less than 6 minutes (0.1 billable hours).  If you want to skip straight to the meditation, it starts at 3:16.  If you can't do the full meditation, then do 5 deep breaths (in through the nose, and out through the mouth) first thing in the morning, right before bed, and anytime you're feeling anxious.  Want to connect with us?
