FITZGERALDS (6615 Roosevelt in Berwyn) is, without a doubt, one of my favorite places to see music and simply hang out. The vibe is always chill, and the bookings are fantastic. Beyond that, the building is historic! FITZGERALDS was officially added to the National Register of Historic Places by the United States Park Service at the end of last year. In advance of the plaque dedication on May 3, co-owners Will Duncan and Jess King jumped in the car to talk about the storied history of FITZGERALDS, as well as its impact on the local and music communities. Adding the “Carne” to this episode is BABYGOLD BARBECUE, the killer restaurant that’s part of the FITZGERALDS campus. Will and Jess brought a massive sampler of the BABYGOLD menu into the car, and we did our best to make our way through it. Chef Steve Domanik is doing amazing things over in Berwyn… Can’t make it to the plaque dedication? You’ll see it afterward when you go to any upcoming show at FITZGERALDS.

Josephine Baker Meets Bricktop & 'Dinah'

The 1937 Flood Watch Podcast

Josephine Baker was only 20 years old when she recorded the song “Dinah” at her first studio session 98 years ago this fall. That was just a year after the provocative dancer/singer arrived in Paris, immediately setting the town on fire with her risqué shows at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées.And a West Virginian was right there to help her light those blazes.Ada “ Bricktop” Smith, a young Alderson, WV, native, was in Paris several years ahead of Baker, entertaining at composer Cole Porter's famous parties, often teaching his guests the latest dance crazes, such as the Charleston and the Black Bottom. Josephine Baker always acknowledged she was one Ada Smith's protégés in those heady early days of The Jazz Age.“I didn't get my first break on Broadway,” Baker told London's Guardian a half century later. No, she was just a nameless hoofer in the chorus line in those New York shows, she said, but “I became famous first in France in the Twenties.”“Oh yes,” she added, “Bricktop was there. Me and her were the only two, and we had a marvelous time. Of course, everyone who was anyone knew Bricky. And they got to know Miss Baker as well."Ada Smith became one of 1920s' best known American singers/dancers, owning the famed “Chez Bricktop” in Paris from 1924 to 1961. She even got a shout-out in Woody Allen's hit film, Midnight in Paris, in 2011 when the character of Zelda Fitzgerald proposes an evening's escapade:In the next scene, Cole Porter, the Fitzgeralds and their fabulous friends pile into a period open car and tear down Parisian streetd into the night.Ending up at Chez Bricktop, they watch Josephine Baker dance (and the Fitzgeralds drink…)Back to the Song“Dinah,” considered an anthem of the Roarin' Twenties, was not quite two years old when Josephine Baker recorded it that autumn day in 1926 in Paris.It was back in The States that she learned the hot number when she sang it at New York's Plantation Club on Broadway as the understudy to Ethel Waters.Obviously, the song was still much on Baker's mind when she strolled into the Odeon studio for her first recording session. The band recruited to accompany her on the date is thought to be members of a group called “Olivier's Jazz Boys.”“Dinah” by then had been introduced to the world by Waters within a year of its composition in 1925. After it was recorded by Waters for Columbia in 1926, the song went on to be waxxed by everyone from Fletcher Henderson and Cab Calloway to Bing Crosby, the Mills Brothers and the Boswell Sisters to Chet Baker, Thelonious Monk and Django Reinhardt and Stéphane Grappelli.And, as noted in an earlier Flood Watch article, the tune was famously among the favorites of trumpeter Louis Armstrong, who perform it in most of his numerous live shows and his radio appearances for decades after initially recording it in 1930.Our Take on the TuneWhenever the guys haven't seen each other for a couple of weeks, there's always a special joy when they all get back together again. That was certainly the case at last week's rehearsal. Add to that the fact that Floodster Emeritus Paul Martin dropped by to sit in. That always cranks up the energy level in the room. And you can just hear in this first tune of the evening. This is a public episode.

This is a teaser for a bonus episode. You can listen to it in full on Patreon! Where did we leave off? Last we saw them, Zelda had an affair with a French aviator, and Scott said their marriage would “never be the same.”  He was correct, as their relationship took dark turns for the worse. Scott befriended Ernest Hemingway in Paris, who told him “Zelda just wants to destroy you.” Zelda's mental health deteriorated as she and Scott fought, and she entered many mental institutions in the following years.  Yet even while Scott and Zelda became separated over time, they still wrote heartfelt letters to each other for the rest of their lives. Their relationship was far from perfect, but it's still a love story influencing pop culture, literature (and now us!) to this day.

Master the 40: The Stories of F. Scott Fitzgerald

In late 1930 as Zelda Fitzgerald remained hospitalized in a sanitarium trying to regain her sanity her husband cranked out a frenzied series of stories to pay for her treatment. Out of this whirlwind of effort came "Babylon Revisited," which appeared originally in the February 21, 1931, issue of the Saturday Evening Post and later anchored the fourth and final story collection of his life, Taps at Reveille (1935). "Babylon" is the mack daddy of all Fitzgerald stories, widely hailed as the best of his short fiction and his most widely anthologized. This episode asks why the story enjoys that exalted status. While celebrating its virtuoso craftsmanship and complex characterization, we also note that the story appeals in part because it offers such a capsule portrait of the Fitzgeralds' own biographical tragedy, a hymn to their own self-destruction against the sudden shift from the Boom to the Great Depression. The story also captures the romance of expatriate Paris, which many of its central sites---the Right Bank's Ritz Bar, most famously---still attracting Fitzgerald fans galore each year. This story is hard to top, but we also recognize that it's important not to let its reputation overshadow his other stories.

Try and make sure you're taking away, at least somewhere between one and three things that you're actually gonna deploy. [00:01:46] And so when they come and you're like, Hey, that'll change our business, that'll change how we do what we do, whatever that's gonna impact us, and do it quickly. Low-hanging fruit, so to speak. Write it down, put an action plan together for it, which I'll walk 'em through how to do, and then file it away so that you can pay attention to everybody else. [00:02:06] But trying to, Oh, I'm gonna do that, I'm gonna do that, I'm gonna do that. I'm gonna, then you're gonna get back and you ain't gonna do a damn thing. So I really try hard to guide people. Hey, one of the three things that you're gonna do that's gonna make your business run better than it did before you came and you're good. [00:02:21] Shoot, if you just do one thing better that's a win, right? So much good information comes [00:02:26] out of these events and if you try, as you said, if you try to capitalize on all of 'em, it's just you're gonna wind up, going in a circle and not being very successful. [00:02:36] TJ, right now you are actually, I should just let you introduce yourself by Apologies. Why don't you introduce yourselves, since we're halfway through the show. . There we go. No, so TJ, and I am the president and CEO of a company called the Flywheel Coaching Group. [00:02:53] We're a business coaching and training organization for the trades. But we're more boutique-like I'm not looking to be the next stars or the SGIs or those really larger groups. Because I'm just too relationship-driven and too relationship-focused to be where we're headed right now, right? [00:03:10] I wanna be able to come alongside businesses and help 'em where they're at with what they need. We do have a beginning program that we go through that we refer to as our foundational five, and everybody goes through it no matter what. But the only reason being is early in my career as a coach, I didn't do that and, inadvertently hurt some folks. [00:03:27] Where had I done it better things would've happened versus the outcome that they had helped 'em sell really out of the gate, but they weren't priced right. So you can imagine how that worked out. And so just vowed to me that I was never gonna not have the commitment. [00:03:43] Looking over these five core things before we get rolling. Regardless of whether you're a $1 million business or a $50 million business, we're looking at these and it's made things go, a whole lot better. So we're just gonna keep on doing that. What so what five things do you look at [00:04:03] So we look at your billable hour or your pricing because now we've got margin pricing that's been introduced to the game. On the service side we're gonna look at your financial statements, so your profit and loss statement, your income statement, your balance sheet. But we're looking at them not only for completeness but for structure. [00:04:24] Because what I find with most financial statements is that they're set up to make life easy for your accountant, not for you to actually make data-driven decisions about your business. . And so we're gonna, we're gonna go ahead and make sure that it's set up in a way that you can look at it and within five minutes you know where you're bleeding from and you know what's happening and why it's happening. [00:04:43] We're gonna go through, we're gonna get core values and mission statement taken care of because from a cultural standpoint, a lot of people, I'll be talking on this week, a lot of [00:04:52] people they want to have a great, healthy culture, but they've done nothing to align the people in order to create that great healthy culture. [00:04:59] And so core values and mission statement are the very foundation of that. And then lastly, as an organizational chart, I always recommend that we look out three to five years and we build the organizational chart for the company that we want to be versus the company that we are today. And it empowers the rest of the team to see not only what are they doing and what are they responsible for and who's in charge of their care, but it also sees what opportunities lie ahead and how would I go about positioning myself to be somebody that might be able to fill one of those. [00:05:29] So it just brings a lot of clarity and allows us to make way better decisions later on in the coaching than if I didn't pay attention to those things out of the gate. Dude, I'm so glad you said that because that makes, it makes complete sense here's the thing if one of those areas is off the wholly other, the whole wheel doesn't spin because there's a spoke missing. [00:05:51] And those I'm like, now I'm putting it together. . So like it, But you are a thousand percent correct. And I think one of the things that you hit on specifically, and I don't personally map out organizational charts for people because I, but I understand the value and I understand what it is. [00:06:07] That's just not my specialty, right? Yep. But it is super important, and we've all heard this, to have the right people in the right seats on the bus because if you don't, the bus's not gonna run. Not properly. No. Unfortunately, like the ADHD kids like us, you can't put us in the back of the bus. [00:06:27] We gotta sit up by the bus driver, so we behave, it's not that we're any different of a child or different of an individual, but when you put us by the bus driver's got their intent right on us. And we're doing what we need to do so we don't get in trouble. Whereas the more trustworthy kids are the ones that you're gonna put, in the back of the bus. [00:06:42] And I don't mean trustworthy from like ethics, but trustworthy from them, not every little thing distracts 'em, it's some of those challenges, but no, to your point what we uncover is more often than not, the reason that I get into it is nobody really knows what sandbox they own and what sandbox they need to ask permission to climb into. [00:07:05] And. That's where I find like 80% of the things that happen in an organization that isn't fun stem from is overlap, I [00:07:18] think is what you're, that's part of it. It is, It's it it's overlap and then it's the feelings and the beliefs and things that are tied to the overlap, being able to occur and occurring because in one person's mind it shouldn't, And then in the other person's mind, they just think they're trying to help and there are no clear boundaries. [00:07:38] And I often talk about I'll make parallels with kids all the time because I, quite honestly, all of us are still kids. We're just older and we can vote and smoke and drink. But at the end of the day, when it comes to the kid thing like I tell people give me one child that you've ever met that didn't have any rules, that didn't have responsibilities, that didn't have chores. [00:07:58] That was an amazingly well-behaved child. You can't, Nope. At the same time, share with me a child that was just an absolute nightmare. But the parents had rules and the, again, you can't, Right? So it's the same thing in an organization. These things have to exist for them to have the freedom of which they seek. [00:08:23] Yes. Not to reign them in. It's Hey, now this whole pasture out here, this whole area, go have fun and do your thing. We can do that. And it's safe because the fence that's around it, we know keeps the bad stuff out, keeps them in. And that's really what those five things do for an organization it gives us a better chance of keeping the bad things out and the good stuff in. [00:08:51] And really a lot of that, a lot of that is, is structure, which, I, you know I don't like, I like structure. I don't like being structured. Does that make sense? Like I don't Yeah, of course, it makes sense. Give me the confines with which I can work, but don't tell me how to do it. [00:09:09] Yes, Correct. A lot of our clients are that way. A lot of 'em. Large majority. Yeah. Absolutely. So as long as you know that, then you can, work with them accordingly. But it's, it, I lost what I was saying. Are you good? It was confines and things of being, being, liking structure, but not wanting someone to try and make you structured and Right. [00:09:35] And think about this when we're trying to tell our clients to do something, Do you think that's really that's the wrong approach, [00:09:44] Cory, in fairness, I'm a coach, not a consultant, so I don't tell anybody to do anything. Yeah, me either. I'm gonna ask better questions to get them to discover a better answer for themselves, and I'm gonna come alongside 'em and help them to hone a skill set that they may not have or that maybe isn't as good as it needs to be. [00:10:06] But I'm not gonna necessarily tell 'em to do. The only thing that you have to do if you're my client is you have to not be a jerk, if I come and meet with you and you're like, Hey, teach me how to take more of the customer's money, I'm now, you're not your coach, that we're done conversation over. [00:10:22] Aside from that, And the same thing towards your internal people, of course. But aside from that, if you're like, Hey, I really like to do this way, we're gonna have a conversation about it, We're gonna uncover that. Doing it that way isn't hurting anybody, it's delivering a predictable result that's desired. [00:10:37] We're gonna go, and if it is, guess what I'm gonna tell you? Good. Keep doing that next. Yeah. Like it, it's not a size fits. And I think that's one of the other big differentiators in the coaching space is a lot of these groups, if you wanna deviate from the structure or from the book, all of a sudden now you're doing it wrong. [00:10:55] The last time I checked Corey, the thing that makes us all special is our uniqueness. That's right. And so I don't want everybody, I don't want to create 50 TJs running around. I want to create 50 individuals running around that have been influenced by me in certain areas. The only reason they're influenced by me in those certain areas is cause I was fortunate enough to be influenced by a lot of people in the course of my time and my career. [00:11:23] And, I got to post a picture this week with Keith Mercurio. And what that guy has meant to my career, along with a few other folks is unquestionable, right? Did we ever go and eat dinner together and all those types No. But he's the coach that cared enough about me to force me through some things that I didn't want to deal with, right? [00:11:42] And to force me through looking at things through a different lens than the way I was looking at them. And had he not done that, I wouldn't be where I'm at today, right? And so there's a handful of those people in my career. I'm sure there is one for you. And so every chance I get to show them my gratitude, man, I make sure I take it a hundred percent. [00:12:07] A hundred percent. Those folks, they're not a [00:12:10] dime dozen. No, they're not. And when you get somebody, I've got one of my, one of my best friends. He just is the salt of the earth, the best human being that's ever been on this planet, and would give his shirt off. A lot of people are that way, but he's just different, right? He's just different, he just tends to relationships on a level that's just really, it's just really special. And it sounds like Keith is very similar to that of you. A million percent. And like I said, it's one of those things where it wasn't hours upon hours of interaction. [00:12:41] It was the right interaction at the right time with the right amount of follow-up afterward. And over the course of man, I guess now it's probably been the last 15 years we've just stayed connected. It might be. Five Facebook messages a year. It might be two phone calls. It might be running each other at an airport That's happened twice. [00:13:06] It doesn't have to be much, but as I said, when you take, not just Keith, but it's an opportunity for me to give some thanks here real quick, right? Is you take a Mark Atherstone, you take a Weldon Long, you take a Kenny Chapman, a Keith Mercurio, right? These are all guys that had such an influence on my career and in helping to shape me from when I was wet clay to what I am now, that I'm more like a dingy old pot [00:13:38] That I, I wouldn't be where I'm at if they hadn't been a part of my life. And so I just make sure that I express that gratitude when I'm near 'em. And I just, man, I really pray that, that I'll have a hundredth of the influence over somebody in the course of my career that those guys had over me. [00:13:54] Because if I do, the mission should accomplish the rest of it really doesn't matter. Yeah. Yeah. That's fair. That's fair. And I'm I agree with you. I, there's something about it, it's interesting that because, Keith treated you like you and I talked about before this show, just like we, treat the people that we deal with, which is, you do add value first. [00:14:13] And we hear that a lot of times, and it's really a kind of a buzzword for a lot of people. But really what we're talking about with the value portion is you just do stuff outta the goodness of your heart to make somebody's life better. And that's the name of the. It's a hundred percent the name of the game. [00:14:30] And it's one of those deals where we're all on this planet together. [00:14:36] If everybody would just approach it this way, which I know is utopian, I know it's not gonna happen. But if they did, it'd be a whole lot better place. And that's where I will give an insane amount of credit to Tommy Mellow and Bree Avalo at the Vertical Track event. [00:14:53] Corey, I've never been to an event in all my years. And so let's put this into perspective. I, day one for me in the trades was October 1st, 1994, right? Sorry. October 4th, 1994 was my very first day. It was where I went in and I was an apprentice and didn't know anything over the course of the last 28 years. [00:15:20] I've been to a lot of industry events. The one I was at last week was the very first time I've ever been to an industry event where the only thing that you could see no matter where you looked was people caring about each other. The three or four times I heard, like some negativity may be potentially starting up right behind it was somebody coming up and going, Hey, just real quick, I, I know you're frustrated, but is the conversation you're about to have, is that gonna get you closer to where you want to go? [00:15:55] Or is it gonna get you further away and shifted the course of the conversation? Or, Hey, I know you're hurting and everything, but are you bringing value right now, or are you tearing down and this happened across, I don't know how many, hundreds or thousands of. For three solid days. I've, But you, I've never been in an event where that was the case. [00:16:24] And so one of the rarities I, it's the longwinded post that I warned everybody about. I was like, Hey, long post rant. I just had to share it with everybody, my perspective on it on social media, not to kiss up, not to, Oh, Tommy this or Tom. The only way that happens is for you to breathe it and live it and follow it and surround yourself with other people that do the same thing and genuinely care. [00:16:53] Because any other way, it'll, you'll see it, but it won't permeate everything. [00:17:02] You can't fabricate authenticity. It was insane. I was excited to go home and see my family, but I did not wanna leave. Dang. I hate I missed that, man, here's the good news, they'll do it again. And I have to believe that it won't feel any different. [00:17:24] Because of the level of care and things that, that they're putting into it. It, just was really like you talk about value first. That entire event was valued first. And it started with them giving the shop tour of a one taking us through different areas. Then you go into the break room and there's this enormous, I'm talking like going into garage convenience store side drink thing with the same number of choices, Corey, the same number of selections of beverages, and it just took what you want. [00:17:55] If you want something, go get whatever you wanna drink. Just go have it. There are video games there. Who wants to play video games? By the way, Tommy, I'm gonna beat you at Buck Hunter one of these days. But anyway, there were a lot of opportunities there and it made you feel like you mattered. And, I was, I was on a call recently where somebody said something about, my view of culture. [00:18:16] And so I said this, I don't think people quit jobs. I don't think people quit because of their manager or their boss, right? People are like, Oh, they don't quit jobs. They quit managers. I think they quit cultures a hundred percent. I think people are somewhere where they don't feel valued, They don't feel uplifted, and they don't feel like there's opportunity. [00:18:42] And when those things happen, they don't stay. I look back at my career and look if we looked at my resume, I bet you half the people that are listening who are in leadership positions would look at my resume and go, I ain't hiring him. He stays nowhere long enough. I wasn't discontented or disillusioned, I just didn't put up with bs. [00:19:04] So if you said, This is how we are and this is what we do, and then you didn't do it, you lost me. Yeah. I don't mean to a point where there was no room for making mistakes, but you know what I'm talking about? Like these just egregious things of Oh, we care about our people and then being on the phone, talking to 'em in a matter of which that we wouldn't talk to anybody. [00:19:24] Correct. I would see that was what the case was and then I was out, [00:19:28] or I would get somewhere and see that the revenue was the primary focus, the primary objective, the only thing they cared about, and I was out. You have to. It can't be the main focus. It cannot be. It's the result. It's always the result. [00:19:44] For sure. And that was just, Simon Sinek has his most recent book, Infinite Game. Maybe one of the greatest gifts any author ever gave me was his writing that book. Because up until I read it, I did think I was disillusioned. I did think I was a discontented person with a discontent heart. [00:20:02] I did wonder, Hey, how come I haven't stayed at employers? The longest tenure of employer employment that I had was eight years after that. The next longest was like three, and then most of the rest were two or fewer. And I looked at that and I went, Man, I, what's wrong with me? And then I read that book. [00:20:27] And then I read where he talks about that very specific challenge and I went, Holy crap. I had an infinite mind working for finite-minded people. And that's what the issue was. And now I look back and I'm like, Man, I feel a whole lot different about myself. If you think about some of those places that you didn't align with, right? [00:20:52] If you go back in your Rolodex, in your head, you can probably count most of those companies are probably not doing great because if you felt the misalignment Yep. Then other people feel the misalignment. Customers feel a misalignment. Eventually, the thing is gonna burn down. Yeah. Or somebody's making money, but their marketing budget is like 15% and the employees are new every year. [00:21:19] And there's a runway for that. Eventually, that's gonna stop. It is. And that's, that, that goes into now you're talking about human beings that you're recycling through for money, and that, that's on a whole different level. That's I'm a thousand percent with you on that. [00:21:33] It was just, it was eye-opening for me to read through that and pull from it what I did and now be able to go out and deploy it. But like I said, when I was at Vertical Track, I just tell you, like I, and I, and it'll I'll probably talk about this for quite a while. [00:21:49] It'll probably be years from now and somebody will ask me a question and then I'll bring it [00:21:54] back up because it was that impactful. And there's not a way for me to really get past like my wife even said, she's Man, this really affected you. And I went, it did, It really affected me. It really, I came back. [00:22:08] Corey, I walked back into my house a better man than I left. Dang. Because I had those days with those people. [00:22:25] That sounds like my eye lost a journey, but on a different, a different plane there. But yeah, that's something on my bucket list by the way. We'll talk about that on a different day. Oh yeah. I've done it twice. It's life-changing. Yep. But that love that you felt coming home, that love that you felt in that event, it would be about 10 times that. [00:22:42] And it, it's wild and yeah, I'll talk to you about it at a later date. That's just, you've me, you've mesmerized me with that story because you just don't hear that. You don't, you, I don't hear that. You hear that, x, y, z person was there, or, Peyton Manning was there, or who. [00:22:59] but I always ask myself like, What the hell is Peyton Manning gonna teach me? I'm a, I work with people in the trades. What the hell, What is he gonna teach me? He's not gonna teach me anything, so I really don't care if he's there like that kind of stuff. Just, I just don't, I don't put much value on it. [00:23:16] That's all I'm saying. I, so I'm with you, But here's the thing. Tommy didn't have any celebrities. Oh, that's fair. But that's interesting. There were, there are celebrities to all of us in the home service space but there were no celebrities at the event, the closest thing to celebrities I would say would be Joe Polish and Ken Goodrich. [00:23:33] And if you'd say Joe Polish or Ken Goodrich to the general public then, and none of 'em gonna know who the hell those guys are. From that side of things, like they're celebrities to us and they mean a lot to us because of all they've done in our space but they're not the Mike Tysons or the Fitzgeralds or whomever that you might get to come and do a keynote speech. [00:23:54] And I'm not saying there's no value in those things, but I think it breeds a different attendee. Agreed. And a different culture of the event of what's actually happening. And so yeah, I just, thought it was super well done. I can't wait to be a part of it again. [00:24:14] And I look forward to seeing how it affects [00:24:20] how I move forward. Cause I know that there's gonna be times where stuff's gonna come up, and that's gonna be in the back of my mind of are you honoring what was gifted to you at that event with the way you're handling this situation? So I'm gonna ask you a hard question. [00:24:37] It shouldn't be a hard question, but what is, give us one thing that you took away from that event that just you feel like it was something that, if you're willing to share that. Yeah. The way we look at other people, the way we look at other people, you can look at other people, and you can judge, which look I try really hard not to do, but let's be honest, there are times I do it right. But it's even more profound than that, right? It's you're teaching a class, and somebody is disruptive in that class. [00:25:11] And right away mindset goes to, man, this guy's being a jerk. Instead of, I wonder what this guy's got going on that's making him feel or think that this is the best way to handle himself in this situation. And then taking it the next step and going, Man, I'm really grateful that he's in my class today because we met at the right time. [00:25:34] Because I am gonna be the person that's gonna care enough about him to figure that out. And I will a hundred percent guarantee you. Like I did not think about those things that way prior to that class, prior to that event I do now. And so what's that gonna do? That's just, it's just gonna make. The environment that much more inviting to be a part of and show people that, the old adage of it's easier to catch flies with honey than it is with vinegar, right? [00:26:07] Like it, I don't know why you wanna catch flies, but still . But that's the truth, right? And so you left there realizing, and I guess it's simple, but it's also somewhat profound. You left there realizing it's actually easier to be nice than it is to be a dick. Like it takes more energy to be a jerk to people than it does to just be nice. [00:26:30] I would almost argue it might take the same amount of energy. So really you could just take a pick. If it, ultimately you're not gonna lose, you're not necessarily gonna lose energy one way or another, but, so if that's the. Just make a different decision. That's just it. But to [00:26:46] me, the reason that I say more energy is because when the interaction is over, I dunno about you, but if I was a jerk to somebody, like the interaction doesn't stop at the interaction, then I think about it after the fact. [00:26:58] And sometimes I like rehash it. Yeah. I almost never do that when I was nice cuz it's just how I'm supposed to be. So it ends up taking more of my energy to be difficult or conflicting or a jerk than it does to just simply treat people the way that they deserve to be treated. Or maybe not, maybe deserves not the right word. [00:27:20] Maybe worthy is the right word. Like we're all worthy of being treated as human beings that have feelings and needs and wants and desires. A hundred percent. And I, and I especially wanna hone in on that for just a quick second. that, I, and I don't do this, but I see this happen a lot, is people will just rip people apart online. [00:27:44] And I, it bothers me, It really bothers me because you don't know what that person's going through and you're just jumping in on this bandwagon of garbage, but you know nothing. And this hasn't happened to me, so I'm not the victim here. I'm not saying this hap this never happened to me, but I just don't understand like why people, Paul, And there's a specific situation I'm thinking about that happened not long ago between two people that I know. [00:28:10] They both acted like total idiots online. And like I sat there and watched this interaction and I'm like, Y'all are supposed to be like leaders and y'all are acting like you're in prison again, which is ridiculous. And so I, I just think that. Think about how you think about how you wanna be talked to. [00:28:31] And I know that goes back to treat people how you'd wanna be treated, but really it is that simple. You probably wouldn't talk to yourself, not you or me, But some of these people wouldn't, you wouldn't talk to yourself the way you talk to other people, right? Or worse case. So here's the other one that I uncovered, right? [00:28:50] For those of us that have challenges with our internal voice, would you ever let somebody else talk to you the way that you sometimes let yourself talk to yourself? Nope. So it, it goes both ways. Corey, I a hundred percent get where you're coming from. But the answer is no. So just knock it off. [00:29:08] It's a, it's wasted energy. There's nothing good that's gonna come from it. [00:29:12] Whether it's you talking that way to somebody else, you talking that way to yourself, the only thing it's doing is creating muscle memory for you to continue talking that way. So just, yeah, stop doing it. I'll tell you, I, and this is something I've worked on really hard over the last three years I guess you could say. [00:29:31] But more importantly, and really it comes down to, it's a decision, right? And if you just look at it like that, it's just a decision that I can choose to feel like garbage or I can choose to just not let that thing affect me. And guess what? If it's not within my arm's reach, I don't really have that much control over it anyway. [00:29:54] So why am I worried about what's happening next month or what happened last month? I can't do anything about that. Nope. Right now, today, no. And alls it does is take away what. Enjoyment might be available for you today, . And that's where I think the energy de depletion comes from. Is the stress to your point about, it takes more energy to be upset because you invite negative energy into your life. [00:30:21] And I don't know about you, but I pick up on people's energy. I know when people are being genuine and when they're not. And I know if people are telling me the truth or not. Like it's just people. There's in ADHD people get this because all, most of us are impacts and most of us can see four or five steps ahead. [00:30:40] Most of us can see steps ahead for everybody else, but it's hard to do it for ourselves. Let's see. There's a whole list of things. Yeah. So I think one of the things in this space though right now that that bothers me a little bit. And I promise this is gonna be a positive thing, not a negative thing is that we don't, we're not putting enough time and attention on just simply being good people to other people in our salesmanship, right? [00:31:12] Everybody wants to learn how to be better closer. Everybody wants to learn how to be more persuasive or for what? Yes, stop all that. I just want to get to know the people better and understand what it is that they're challenged with and what they're true. Like desired state, if you will, is Cory, if you could wave a magic wand and [00:31:38] make your house feel a certain way, tell me what that would be, right? [00:31:43] What's the humidity level, What's the temperature? What's the, when the sun shines through the window, is there stuff floating in it or not? When you drink water, are you chewing it too? Like asking them questions about and then going, All right, so Cory, based on those things that we've discussed, which of them are of the top priority that you wanna make sure that I try and solve for you today? [00:32:05] It doesn't have to be more complicated than this yet. We probably spend millions of dollars as an industry making it more complicated than this. And alls we need to do is just start caring about people, apply the fifth abbot, right? The fifth habit of seek first to understand, then to be understood and get after it right? [00:32:33] Genuinely care. And I think the reason we spend millions of dollars. is because I think everybody thinks it can't possibly just be this easy . Sure. It can't possibly just be that you just have to care. No, it really is that easy, right? We talked about previous performance and things of that nature, right? [00:32:53] And so I was on a panel and I got to sit next to some ridiculous people on this panel. As far as what they've accomplished, right? We're talking Tommy Mellow, Brent Buckley, Victor Rancor Lance Bachman, right? We're all on this panel. Start talking about sales and how, back in the late nineties, early two thousands, a million dollars in sales was like a really big deal. [00:33:17] And then afterwards when we were done, I got to talking and I said, I don't really bring this up a lot, but did you know that I did 1.2 million in sales in 2000 and I didn't sell equipment? [00:33:32] And like a bunch of people just went What'd you just say ? I was like, Yeah, I did. I did a little over 1.2 million in sales as a technician in 2000. And I didn't sell equipment. It was all repairs, add-ons, accessories, enhancements, rejuvenation, no equipment. And they're like, How? And I'm like, 1.2 million worth of stuff was wanted by the customer. [00:34:02] That's it. [00:34:04] That's it. So just think we've gotta change the lens that we look through and stop being so concerned about the sales and start being concerned about how many new friends we can make and how many problems we can solve and truly care. And the problem with it is this, you can't fake it. [00:34:23] That's right. You absolutely cannot bake it because there's incongruence. I'll tell you, you're you can have a poker face, but you can't have a poker body. So your body will always tell the truth. Did you know that? Look, I could tell people I eat healthy all the time. The minute I stand up and the belly comes out, , all that's off right now. [00:34:51] I can tell you this, I'm getting a whole lot better than I used to be, which is why there's less of me now than there was 10 years ago. But no, exactly to your point, Corey, like the other side of it is this is, if I watch you for longer than today, you'll review yourself to me. Yeah. Which is why I don't like doing one and two day onsite. [00:35:16] Nope. I want, I, people are like, You're just trying to sell me more. I'm like, No, I need at least three days to see who you truly are. Yeah. Cause everybody can fake it for a day or two. You really need five days. Truly. I like to have five anyway. I like to have five as well, but when five's not available, three and four are all I'm doing. [00:35:41] If it's a one day thing, it's for me to teach a class, not to do an onsite. It's like I'll come and teach a customized class to your team, but it's not for onsite related things. One in two days is strictly for content. Let's clarify that for the audience, because that's really important. Because one thing that, Yeah, just yeah. [00:36:00] Clarify why you don't come in for one day or even two days and then leave. And my guess is whenever you come in for a how about this? You just tell me. I won't guess. You just tell me. No. So the people can select that they want to have you on site anywhere from one day to five days. And then they can do more than five days, I'm excited. I'll be not sure if it's February or March, but I'll be in Australia most of the month. Next year. So that's gonna be a good time. But when I go on site, [00:36:30] if it's for one day or two days, it's specifically for me to teach a specific class and give a specific skill set. It's not for me to uncover anything. [00:36:39] It's not for me to help solve any issues or put something in place that's not in place, cuz it's not enough time to do it. Three, four and five days is where we start getting into those other things. And quite frankly, sometimes they're not enough. And here's what I will tell you. Every onsite I've ever done, we went with an agenda. [00:36:57] And if it was a full week, by the third day, the agenda no longer looked the same as it did when I got there. Because the truth comes out what the company really needs, what the people really need is different than what we might have thought they needed virtually through Zoom meetings, right? [00:37:17] And so it's impossible to give lasting change in a day or two because people won't reveal who they truly are. The other side of it is if you don't start by uncovering beliefs, you're wasting your time on everything else you do. Because if the beliefs aren't aligned with it, you could teach people all you want. [00:37:42] Nothing's gonna change. You've gotta understand what are their beliefs, why are they there? Where did they come from, and how committed are they to them? And then once you understand all of that, then we have an opportunity. To make improvements or adjustments even. But without that, you're just really listening to yourself talk, and that's why we have this happen. [00:38:07] Oh, the guy was on site and he, after he left, we did great for a week or two, but then it went right back to where it used to be, and then we had to call him back and pay him another X, y, and Z number of dollars. That's why that happens. Yeah, of course it is. That seems like the model sometimes. [00:38:24] Yeah. My view as a coach and I'm pretty sure you're the same way. You should eventually outgrow me. Yeah. Yeah. My skill sets are what they are now. Am I constantly trying to improve them? Yes. But they are what they are. Like I'm really good at the things I'm really good at, but I stay in my lane. [00:38:44] If you wanna know. What to do to have the absolute best marketing plan you possibly can. I am not your guy. Nope. If you want me to look at your [00:38:56] marketing plan and tell you if I'd make adjustments, like I'm okay with that, but I'm not the guy to, to refine your marketing program. I'm probably not the guy to, come in and tell you what you should be doing with your office staff as far as dress code and things like that on its own. [00:39:20] But yet we hire people for this shit all the time. I don't know how you do it without looking at what everything else that's going on. And that's why I'm not any good at those things. So I'll adjust and come in. If you want your team to follow a process, if you. want beliefs aligned. [00:39:38] You want culture healthier? I'm a hundred percent your guy, but it isn't happening overnight. I'm not gonna promise it's gonna happen overnight. And there's a lot of hard work that has to get done. And I do think, and I know we're like jumping around, but welcome to adhd, is, I think that's one of the challenges of social media for us today because everyone's looking at some of these different, or operators that are out there that grew from zero to 50 million or zero to a hundred million or whatever in four years, five years, seven years. [00:40:11] So what you don't know the story behind that. You don't know what's behind the curtain of Wizard of Oz. You, we don't know how leveraged they were so that when the payoff happened, how much they actually walked away with. And here's the other thing, it also, it doesn't matter cuz it's them not you. [00:40:30] it's their team, not your team. It's their people, not your people. It so stop looking at everybody else and start looking internally and go, Hey, what do I really want for myself, my team, my clients, and my company? And then devise a plan and go get it. But stop looking at everybody else. This is where we gotta be. [00:40:50] Like those horses in the Kentucky Derby where they wear them things and the whole reason they wear those things is cuz if they could see the guy over here instead of running the race, they'd fight with him. Yeah. That's where we've gotta get, I'll be honest dude. I do that to a degree with, and similarly, like when I'm working I'll put on Bial focus music cuz it helps me dial in like the blinders. And it's important to know about these things cause it can really help. Have you ever used Bio Neural Beach before? [00:41:19] You know what I'm talking about? Hold on, . [00:41:22] Hold on, let me find it. [00:41:31] You mean this right here? [00:41:37] And you? Is that I, is that the guy on, Do you watch, Do also watch it on YouTube? I don't watch it on YouTube, but this is just literally a mix on iTunes of just continual, just that background music that helps me to just pay attention to what I'm doing. And so if I really need time of focus that the AirPods go in and I'm focused. [00:42:06] No interruptions. No interruptions cannot happen cause it, man, I just, I didn't really anticipate talking about ADHD that much. But dude, like if you really think about how bad it throws you off, just the slightest thing, and like you're married, but your wife could come into your office and say, Hey, do something completely unrelated, or something completely important. [00:42:31] And it may take, I may not get back on track for an hour, right? And that whole hour is wasted because I'm, figuring out what I'm doing. So the way I help myself with that is I write on a note the thing I'm doing, and I put that note in front of me so that way if I forget again, I could just look at the notes and see what I was doing. [00:42:54] still full transparency, right? While we're on this call, my son comes down and he's got something to put in the free, the storage freezer that's down here. And so he take, brings it down, he puts it in the storage freezer, goes back upstairs. And the whole time since he did that, my thought process is, He knows I'm on a podcast. [00:43:11] He knows I'm down here. Why in God's name did you just have to bring that down here and put that in a freezer right now? What the Yeah. And so to your point and then I hear wind outside and I keep the shade pulled on the door on purpose, right? But I hear it. And so now I'm wondering what's going on out there, , But I'm supposed to be paying attention to this [00:43:35] Yes, I get it dude. And here, let me clarify this for everybody, like it's not that we have a lack of focus, it's that we just hyperfocus sometimes on the wrong stuff and everything gets us say. That's, I [00:43:48] think the bigger difference is we don't miss a thing. If you really want like a good observer, get a ADHD person. [00:43:58] Cause nothing will happen without us noticing it. Nothing. Yes, correct. , but here's what will happen and we won't notice it. Get a new piece of furniture and put it in my house while I'm away. When I come home, I ain't gonna say nothing. Nope, nothing. Like my wife will get her haircut or whatever, and I'll do the same thing. [00:44:23] I'll get my hair cut and there's no compliments back and forth because neither one of us realize either other person got a haircut, [00:44:33] So it's a, it's a hard thing to understand until you're the one that's living with it. And you get, Let me ask you if you ever struggle with this is something that is some, if there's, if I'm having a conversation with my wife or, and it's something that I'm gonna have to ask her to do and I feel like there could be the slightest bit of friction, I'm just gonna do it my damn self. [00:44:57] I'm just not gonna, I'm just not gonna ask or I just won't do it. Period. We're both that way. Yeah. Mi Missy and I are both that way, We're both very non-confrontational and so if we think something that we might do might upset the other one. We just either take care of it ourselves or we just don't do it. [00:45:15] Yeah. You know what's interesting and there's a guy, and I can't remember the, I think it's called Love and Relationships, I think is the name of the book, Ericks. And it's a, Did you, have you ever heard of it? It's Love and respect. It's Emerson Ericks. That's exactly, that's absolutely it. And I'm like, after, I'm not sure how I got my hands on this thing, but I'm listening to it. [00:45:39] I'm like, Holy crap. Every dude that's married and every woman that's married needs to read this book because it really does clarify. The miscommunication in relationships. So this is hilarious. Wow. I can't believe we got here from where we started. So I had planned for this fall to do a spousal business owner workshop. [00:46:07] I was gonna run a vbo in Lake Norman, which is just outside of Charlotte. Yep. [00:46:14] And I was only inviting 10 couples, 10 business owner couples. And we were gonna do a one week retreat, basically spousal business owner retreat. That retreat was built off of Love and respect by Emerson Ericks was built off the Five Love Languages by Gary Chapman. [00:46:38] It was built off of The power of a praying husband, the power of a praying wife. It was built off of the book by the owners of Radiant Plumbing and Heating, the case beers. And then there's also something called Imago Therapy, which is a type of counseling that you can go through as a married couple. [00:47:04] Those five things were the resources that I dug into along with my findings as a coach for spousal business owners of the things they struggle with and put them together to create this week long workshop so that they could leave with the ability to work better together and the ability to know when work started and personal stopped and vice. [00:47:31] That was the whole premise of that workshop. We didn't hold it just because too many things were going on this year. And quite frankly, I did a really bad job marketing it. We will hold it in the spring. We will. Thousand. I hold it in the spring. That's gonna be killer because, and I, of course I understand the value of it. [00:47:50] Cause I've been through the books, I've been through all those. The praying one, I haven't been through that, those two, but the other ones, I've been through those. And you're right, It's, but you gotta, but you gotta want, you gotta wanna get better. You gotta wanna be able to communicate with your spouse better. [00:48:04] You gotta want a better relationship. You want, you gotta wanna have better conversations. And unless you look into these things, if anybody, you're they're not just gonna pop outta your head, right? They're not, you're not just gonna all of a sudden wake up one day and everything's gonna be great. [00:48:20] If things are not great today, you gotta make changes. No, but our business should be something that in increases our intimacy and increases our love for one another and increases our ability to dream together. It shouldn't be something that divides that. And if it is something that's dividing it well then something's not the way that it should be.[00:48:40]  [00:48:40] And it doesn't mean that you are doing anything wrong. It probably means that there's something that you're not doing because you simply don't know to do it. Yeah. And that was the whole premise of this workshop because I will tell you, when I work with spousal owners, it's the same, pardon me, It's the same seven to 10 challenges for all of them. [00:48:58] Every single one of 'em. I could make out a list of 10 challenges, and I will guarantee you that the primary challenges in their businesses are on that list. A hundred percent guaranteed. Yeah, I'm sure you're right. I am sure you. , and I think it's important, the spousal por portion, like I, I don't really care what people say. [00:49:18] Like at the end of the day, if it worked for my wife, there's no way I could do the stuff that I do. Impossible. Impossible. She's not even a part of my business. But guess what? She is a part of my business cuz she runs our house in addition to her business. She does all the crap. I don't have time or want to do for that matter. [00:49:37] And she's really good like that. And it makes my life and my work life significantly better. Yep. Amen. Amen. Yeah, I'm with you, Miss. Without Missy Flywell doesn't exist. Yeah. Period. It just, flywheel never happened with, without her. Honestly, man, without her, I'm probably still operating, to be honest with you. [00:49:58] Yeah. I'm probably still a miserable operator instead of chasing my passion, chasing, allowing the fear to get overcome. And chasing my passion of growing other people for a living and being a coach. Like the, when I found coaching, like I knew damn I found what I was put on earth to do and it took me a long time to grow the courage to actually pursue it. [00:50:23] And without her probably never happens. Cause she's a cheerleader, right? She gave us that belief that we just couldn't muster at certain times. Cuz I've been there, cheerleader's not even the word. There's just a lot of things. There's just a lot of things. But yeah, cheerleader is a primary one. [00:50:41] Supporter. That belief, The belief in the belief is the biggest thing for me. She believed accountability partner, believe in me. Accountability partner too. Big time, right? She's I'll say something and she'll be like, Oh my God, you're so humble. When I'm being an ass, when I'm saying something like, and she'll look at me and she'll be like, Oh, you're so humble. And then roll her eyes at me and . But it worked, [00:51:06] right? But it wor it works beautifully, right? It works beautifully. Not offend nothing, right? But that's, and that's the power of learning how to communicate not only in your bus, in your business, but with your spouse. [00:51:19] It's the same difference. You need to communicate with your employees, your staff, the same, same way. Yeah, but I can't wait. She joins me in July, baby. I can't wait. She'll complete a 23 year teaching career. And in June or sooner we'll see, and in July, she'll join me on the team and be an integral part of, she already is an integral part, but she'll be a day to day integral part of what? [00:51:44] Of what we do at Flywheel. People say like, How can you teach a spousal business owner class? That's how that's how cause, Cause even though she's not involved in the day to day, she's I'm married and I own a business and it's not the first time that I was married and known to business. [00:51:58] And the first time, the first go around, I was married and known a business. I wasn't very good at it. So I learned all the things that you're not supposed to do, and I learned all the ways to not handle that. Now I'm married, and I own a business again. And I gotta be honest with you; I don't know so much that I'm better as as the spouse is , but the fact of the matter is it still helped me uncover some of the things that have to happen for it to really be successful. [00:52:23] And I just think when, those types of things, you owe it to share 'em. Yeah, no, I totally agree with you. I totally agree a hundred percent. Dude, this has been such a great conversation. I know we've been all over the place, but guess what? People that listen to this show they're gonna follow this conversation cuz they follow me; great news. [00:52:44] So whenever I have somebody on, it's ADHD, and it goes all over the place, I'm like, that's cool. People listen totally fine. They'll, they, they've caught all by now. Tj I think, dude we've covered a lot of stuff today. This has been, again, it's been a fascinating conversation, and I. [00:52:59] Probably, you and I gonna have a lot more conversations after this. Yep. And I'm looking forward to that. So if you could tell everybody maybe where they can find you, how they can get ahold of you, Tell 'em whatever you wanna tell 'em. Yeah, absolutely. So I'll give you two different methods, and people think I'm crazy for giving the second one, but I'm gonna give it anyway. [00:53:16] The first way is you can go to www dot flywheel, C as in coaching, G as in a group, flywheel cg.com. You can learn about the flywheel, and you can learn about what we do. We're still building out the site, so gimme a little grace there cuz I am not the IT [00:53:32] guy. And then the second way is I'm just gonna give my direct cell phone. [00:53:35] But I'm gonna ask one thing, use text as the primary means of communication because I'm typically doing something like this, either Corey with someone like yourself or with a client or whatever. And I just can't answer it when people call. So I, I hate voicemail. Like, I hate listening to voicemails. [00:53:49] I don't know about you, but I hate it. Come of me; I'll do it. I have to look at it. I'm just, 'cause you're gonna leave me a phone number that I can't write down. Like it is what it is. Anyway, so direct cell line 2 1 5 2 7 2 9 0 3 6. So pay attention, folks, because you know when, and this is important if you're a business owner and you obviously communicate with your employees, you communicate with your customers. [00:54:18] TJ made a really good point, right? He explained really clearly how to contact him. He also explained really clearly how not to contact him. So my point in bringing that up is if you give clear, concise directions in your business like he just did with that phone. You're gonna have a way more successful time. [00:54:37] Yep. If you call me and you leave a voicemail, you've given up the right to get mad at me when I don't return your call. That's simple. That's cause I just told you not to do that. . Exactly. But people like you and me, like we gotta keep messages and stuff in one area or two, probably. It's a lot. [00:54:54] So go ahead, Corey. You can find me on Facebook. You can find me on Instagram as well. I don't have any like handles or anything. It's literally TJ Harnett no matter where you look for me. So I'll put it all in show notes. I appreciate you, my man, back at you, brother. I appreciate you having me on and look forward to staying connected and just growing this relationship, buddy. [00:55:15] I think so. It's gonna be, it's gonna be great dude. We were more light than I thought, I appreciate you, my man.

Goldstaub macht Urlaub in Südfrankreich! Wir folgen der Boheme aus Berlin, Paris und New York an die französische Riviera. Zunächst reisen wir mit den Geschwistern Erika und Klaus Mann nach Marseille. „Marseille ist das Tor zur Welt“, schreibt Joseph Roth. Er wie auch Kurt Tucholsky und Egon Erwin Kisch waren fasziniert von den Extremen der Hafenstadt. Vor allem das Verbrecherviertel am Hafen lockt sie. Nach dem Genuss von ein paar Gläsern Pastis trauen auch wir uns hinein. Von Marseille aus führen uns die Mann-Geschwister weiter Richtung Osten die Küste entlang. Wir machen Station in Juan Les Pins und lernen das legendäre Hotel Provencal kennen, das damals Prominente aus ganz Europa angezogen hat. Hier fand eine touristische Revolution statt, hier feierte die Fitzgeralds, hier wurden Bademodetrends gesetzt. Wir sprechen darüber mit dem Autor des Buches „Hôtel Provençal: Eine Geschichte der Côte d'Azur“, Lutz Hachmeister, und unserer Lady Daisy Ashton. Modisch ganz anders unterwegs sind die Bewohner von Heliopolis. Die Nudistenszene Frankreichs stellt uns die Journalistin Katja Petrovic vor. Bon voyage!

In Episode 93, Gen and Jette kick off their graphic novel book club with Fun Home by Alison Bechdel. This graphic novel memoirs chronicles Bechdel's complex relationship with her father, and she does it with nuance, honesty, and humour. It's a fantastic read and we nerd out a lot on literature, as well as the graphic novel form. Show Notes: Fun Home was adapted as a musical and won a Tony Award for Best Musical in 2015. After finishing Fun Home, we both immediately wanted to read Are You My Mother?, Bechdel's second graphic novel memoir that chronicles, you guessed it, her relationship with her mother. We go off on a few literary tangents (as you do) and ponder James Joyce, the Fitzgeralds, the Alcotts, and Thoreau, among others. You may recognize Bechdel's name from the famous Bechdel test, wherein a movie will pass the test so long as two female characters speak to each other about something other than a man.

Hon blev en symbol för jazzåldern, men senare också för modernismens tystade kvinnor. Legenderna om Zelda Fitzgerald är många och Katarina Wikars kryssar mellan myterna och sorgerna. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna. Essän publicerades ursprungligen 2016. En av Hjältinnorna i den amerikanska författaren Kate Zambrenos hyllade hybridbok om modernismens tystade kvinnor är förstås Zelda Fitzgerald. I hundra år snart har Zelda varit det nav som alla de andra snurrar runt. Nintendospelet, klassikern Zelda, döptes efter henne sägs det. Först fick hon symbolisera hela jazzåldern via sin man Scotts hyllade romaner, hon var själva ur-flappern, och sen blev hon föremål för åtskilliga biografier och feministiska analyser för ingen blev lika förbjuden att skapa som Zelda som förlorade rätten att skildra sitt eget liv, för evigt dömd att vara materialet. Zelda gick sönder men som fortsätter att verka, varje generation lyfter fram henne på nytt, Zambreno kallar henne en spökmentor. Konsten har alltid spelat mindre roll än sammanbrotten i legenden om Zelda. De vars skapande inte är en linjär historia om framgång utan mer brott och punkter har svårare att hävda sig i historieskrivningen menade en av henne biografer, Sally Cline. Jag vill inte vara en komplementär intelligens, sa Zelda tidigt men ingen lyssnade. Scott Fitzgerald blev för alltid 1920-talets krönte skildrare och livet de levde blev fiktion redan medan det pågick, varje dag skulle det produceras ett visst mått av extraordinära händelser och katastrofpartyn. Vad skulle annars allt gå ut på? Scott antecknade, Zelda formulerade, och han knyckte hennes dagböcker från tonåren. Han var trots allt den som försörjde familjen på sitt skrivande. Det tog sedermera Zelda sex veckor att få ihop sin roman om åren i Europa, "Save me the waltz", som hon skrev instängd på mentalsjukhuset medan Scott mer eller mindre berusad höll på i nio år med "Tender is the night", Hon fick återfall när hon läste hans romanen och insåg att hennes allra mest privata brev från mentalsjukhuset hade bakats in i fiktionen. Hon var alltid amatören men det har sedermera visat sig att Scott ofta satte sitt eget namn under de noveller hon skrev. Det höjde arvodet. Zelda strök över hans namn, me me me skrev hon i marginalerna. Kan den gamla striden mellan striden mellan Scott och Zelda Fitzgerald fortfarande vara infekterad? Till och med i mitt eget huvud rasar den för jag har alltid älskat Scott Fitzgeralds melankoliska lite lillgamla iakttagelser över den tillvaro som långsamt bryter ner en i förtid. Alltid citerat ur hans sista bok "Sammanbrottet" där hans skriver: Jag gick sönder som en gammal tallrik. I den gamla tiden ansågs Zelda vara orsaken till Scotts förödda talang, hennes excesser och sedermera vårdräkningar kostade honom omåttliga summor och spädde på hans alkoholism. Zelda var dömd till att leva i ständig presens, åka på taxitaken, elda upp sina kläder i badkaret, inspirera, ingen kunde associera lika vildsint som Zelda sas det, men det var också det som i slutändan skulle fälla henne: språket. Långt senare skulle vännerna med facit på hand återkalla tidiga tecken. Vetskapen om vad som sedermera hände la sitt raster över det förflutna. Log hon inte konstigt redan hos Murphys på Rivieran, liksom åt fel håll? Indikerade inte hennes associationsmönster en disintegrerad tankeprocess? Kraschen - skrev Scott 1929 Wallstreet och Zelda! Han hade blandat ihop henne med Amerika. En fråga som oavbrutet gnager: Varför tyckte Scott att han hade rätt att tysta Zelda? Hur användes diagnosen schizofreni mot kvinnor på trettiotalet? Allt jag läst om Zelda i årtionden flyter liksom samman i försvarstalet: Hon blev sjuk av hans kopiösa supande, hon hade svårt att anpassa sig till den förväntade modersrollen, hade ingen plats för det egna skapandet. Kanske blev hon helt enkelt feldiagnostiserad. Och jag kommer att tänka på konstnären Sigrid Hjertén där på Beckomberga när jag läser hur behandlingarna, insulinterapierna och elchockerna skadade henne mer än sjukdomen. I biografin Hennes röst i paradiset av Sally Cline finns tolv sidor utskriven familjeterapi mellan Scott och Zelda där han skrumpnar ihop mer än någonsin i sitt desperata egenintresse. Du tar mitt material, skrek han. Mentalsjukhusen, galenskapen, terrorn, är det ditt material? undrade hon. Men vad kunde han göra? Sa hans vänner. Hans utgifter var enorma, och han kunde inte hitta på. Han ville, vågade inte släppa ut henne igen. I en fas av denna hundraåriga legend om Zelda har hon setts som en sorts renässansmänniska, multitalang, som bara inte kunde välja mellan baletten, litteraturen och måleriet. Scott skyllde också hennes första sammanbrott på baletten och förbjöd all vidare dansträning, och sen förbjöd han henne också med läkarnas bifall att skriva om sitt eget liv. Det räckte väl med en konstnär i familjen. Zelda skulle rehabiliteras tillbaka till en mer passande kvinnoroll. Arton år ut och in på klinikerna. Först på mentalsjukhuset fick hon kanske trots alla våndorna en egen röst, tomma timmar och plats att utveckla sina egna talanger. De sista åtta åren efter det att Scott hade dött i hjärtinfarkt redan vid 44-års ålder, utbränd i Hollywoods manusfabriker, så skapade Zelda mer än någonsin, både hemma hos sin mamma i de amerikanska sydstaterna och på sjukhusen: androgyna klippdockor ur Alice i Underlandet, religiösa målningar, mängder av noveller och en oavslutad roman på 40 000 ord. Hon hade ingen utbildning, inga pengar och gick och la sig kl. 9 för att spara på elen. Sen brann hon inne, inlåst på vinden på Highland hospital och mamman eldade upp hennes målningar på bakgården. Hon begravdes bredvid Scott. Allt man kan göra är att rita om kartorna, flytta fokus, falla baklänges ner i Zeldas egenartade klippböcker och tvära tankekast. Hennes oavslutade roman "Save me the waltz" kom sedermera ut till och med på svenska under den tråkiga titeln Charleston. Den fick ljumma recensioner och jag minns att jag till min förtvivlan inte orkade läsa ut den. Alabama och David är på Rivieran på 20-talet när naturen luktar Chanel nr 5. Vad ska man göra i livet? Alabama, hon simmar, flirtar, dansar balett planerar en fest, ett stort skrik genom seklerna och sidorna. Ta en överdos sömnpiller? Tiden äter på henne. I barndomen i amerikanska södern hade pappan domaren portionerat ut den där tiden i små loja bitar. Genom total koncentration på baletten åtta timmar om dagen försöker hon alltför sent som det brukar heta dansa ihop ett förslösat liv. Men detta är som sagt hennes enda efterlämnade verk, hennes första roman och sista, och varför skulle det vara genialt? Hon hinner inte riktigt stanna upp och utveckla några situationer, människorna faller mellan festerna, briljant konverserande in i det sista. Den där associerande fria stilen var det som till slut skulle fälla henne, kategoriseras som stört språk. Jag är så rädd att du ska bli skräckslagen när du kommer och upptäcker att det inte finns något annat kvar annat än oordning och tomrum. Om jag får ett klart intellekt är jag säker på att vi kan använda det skrev hon till Scott från sjukhuset. Jag kan inte göra något för dig längre. Jag försöker rädda mig själv, låter Scott hjälten Dick Diver säga till sin sjuka fru Nicole i romanen Natten är ljuv. Och till Zelda skrev han:Du höll på att bli galen och kallade det genialitet. Och Kate Zambreno skriver om Zelda i "Hjältinnor" att hon hade blivit hjärntvättad att tro att hon var sjuk under decennier. Och att hennes konst kom ur hennes sjukdom och inte ur hennes begåvning. Hon fick eksem när Scott var i närheten. Och där finns också ett foto på en kvinna med grova drag i sjömansjacka. Botad! skriver Zelda under det första fotot från mentalsjukhuset, vad Zambreno kallar hennes haggfoto, för första gången ser hon ful ut. Botad från att vara objektet. Men tiden var alltför kort för att ta tillbaka sig. Det tycks mig, hade Zelda en gång skrivit i en recension av Scotts roman The beutiful and the damned, som om jag på ett ställe känner igen ett parti från en av mina gamla dagböcker som mystiskt försvann kort efter mitt äktenskap och också bitar ur brev som vagt låter bekant. Mr Fitzgerald tycks tro att plagiering börjar i hemmet. Och över i allt detta material ur minnet och böckerna finns Scott: för alltid bara 6 år, ingen kommer på hans födelsekalas, han äter ensam upp både tårtan och ljusen.

Today’s guest has been a partner and friend to GBH for years. He’s a former GM for 16 on Center, a restaurant and venue group in Chicago known for its Michelin Star restaurant, Longman & Eagle, as well as music venues like The Empty Bottle and Thalia Hall. If Thalia Hall sounds familiar, that’s because it’s played host to our Uppers & Downers festival basically since its inception. So much of what the festival has become has been substantially shaped by the physical space of Thalia Hall—it’s history, and Will Duncan himself. In this conversation, we’re going to talk about some of that, but also how Will has risen through the ranks over the years, from a part-time door guy to GM, to multi-venue manager across the growing empire of bars, restaurants, and venues, and finally launching his own venue as he takes over the historic FitzGerald’s venue in Berwyn, Illinois. He happened to sign the papers for that venue—venturing into his life-long dream of being an entrepreneur in his own right—about a week before COVID-19 turn our world upside down, and places like FitzGerald’s shut down. A dream interrupted. But still kicking. I’ve learned a ton from Will over the years. Sometimes explicitly, sometimes just by following his example and experimenting with his kind of team-based leadership. I often describe Will as the most optimistic man in America. But one thing I know is that sometimes optimism comes easy and natural—and sometimes optimism is damn hard work. This conversation is about the work. This is Will Duncan of FitzGerald’s and 16 on Center. Listen in.

With midweek news of the Josh Gordon and Al Woods suspensions, it takes us away from just how great this week started out following Sunday's game with the Carolina Panthers. The Seahawks moved to 7-1 on the road, Pete Carroll won his 100th regular season game, Seattle took the top spot in the NFC away from the 49ers. Plus, they were able to get the win with having so many key injuries on defense. The Gordon suspended indefinitely and Woods out for four games, Brandan and Adam talk about which one will impact the team more moving forward. Seattle has a chance to finish the season at home now against the Cardinals at 49ers. Arizona has been a team with a history of winning late in the season at CenturyLink and Kyler Murray has improved as a passer since earlier this season. However, this game is relatively inconsequential in terms of winning the NFC West, so Seattle can afford to rest some key players in advance of the Week 17 game against the San Francisco 49ers. In other news, the Cardinals do have one of the NFL's top 100 players as Larry Fitzgerald was named one of the few active players to the list. The Seahawks now have two members of the top 100 as Steve Largent made the list along with Walter Jones. In the picks, congrats to BowDown2Young !

Part 1 of Great Gatsby: in which Sarah gets Nick's name wrong, because who really cares, and Tom gets his Kennedy's mixed up, which is a bit more egregious. We discuss whether or not the Fitzgeralds were actually popular, if third-wheeling Nick can be considered a kink, and wonder if hating someone is actually crucial to loving them.

Welcome to The Dirty Bits of History. I’m Tawny Platis, a professional voice actor, who gives a casual, and comedic southern Californian retelling of the sexy, scandalous, salacious, fierce, funny, and freaky bits of history your teacher probably left out. Stay tuned after the episode or take a peek at the show notes for The Dirty Bits After Dark: Catching Up With Tawny and George, our contact info, coming attractions, and a special thank you message to our producers. For commercial-free episodes, visit Patreon.com/DirtyBits. Now, enjoy the show. If you aren’t familiar with Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald, they were writers and socialites who became the poster children of what we now call, “The Jazz Age.” Scott seems to be best known for writing, “The Great Gatsby” and less well known for mercilessly plagiarizing his wife, Zelda. They’re both notorious for alcoholism, infidelity, mental illness, and just generally causing a scene in general during the 1920s and 30’s.After nearly a century, why are we still so obsessed with the artists? What is it about Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald that has kept them relevant generation after generation? The academic answer would be that we remain fascinated by the duality of narcissistic geniuses and reckless self-destruction. I personally find the answer to be that America has always loved to stop and gawk at a gnarly trainwreck. And the Fitzgeralds were the gnarliest of trainwrecks. Per usge, to better understand what’s going on here and get the full picture, we have to go back to the very beginning. And because she got the shit end of the stick for so long, I’m starting out with Zelda.If anything sounded goofy in this episode, it probably was!

The Heywoods visit the Waverider for a surprise visit and take Hank on a ride along to 1920s Paris. Ava shows Mona the ropes and the two form an unlikely friendship with Nora. Synopsis While Mona is late for her first day at the Time Bureau, Sara pays a surprise visit to her girl on her birthday! While Sara is busy distracting Ava, Hank enters her office forcing Sara to hide quickly and collect her belongings while Hank reviews budget numbers. While Sara rushes off to return the Waverider before Hank and Nate realize she is gone, Ava is called to the containment cells when Mona sets off an alarm in Nora’s cell. Thinking she’s in danger, Ava rushes in and discovers Ray’s letter. Nora blasts Ava with magic to keep her from opening the letter and all three get locked inside the cell. Mona convinces the other two to loosen up and with a little wine, they start to tell Mona their life stories. She cheers them up with cake and tells them what amazing people they are. Now I’m better spirits, Ava convinces Nora to open Ray’s letter and to everyone’s surprise, they find Ray instead of a letter! He blasts them out the prison cell. On to the main story! We last saw Sara attempting to follow Nate and Hank through the time portal to the Waverider. However, she runs into the delivery person and has to find another way onboard her ship. While she changes, Ray and Zari guide Nate’s tour around the Waverider to avoid Charlie. Mick has other plans though and steers him to the lab where he sees “Amaya”. He rushes to give her a hug and gets decked. While Charlie pretends to be Amaya, Gideon identifies a fugitive in Paris 1927. Eager to please Hank, Sara, Nate and Mick head to Paris where Hank meets his idol, Ernest Hemingway. While Hank chats with Papa, Nate talks to Salvador Dali who has seen their magical creature. When Nate tries to return to the Waverider and research the creature, he runs Charlie and the Fitzgeralds. Charlie identifies the creature as a Minotaur over drinks and the team regroups after Hank is injured hunting the Minotaur. Constantine and Nate collaborate to find a way to stop the Minotaur. Constantine will attract the beast with musk while Nate puts it to sleep with a lute. Hank confronts Nate, doubting his plan to lull the beast instead of shooting it. Sara backs Nate and the team heads back out to stop the Minotaur from killing everyone at the nightclub. Constantine gets the beast’s attention and Nate begins to play the lute. Just as it is about to fall asleep, Hemingway feels the need to prove himself and pulls out a gun to shoot the Minotaur. Sara prevents him from doing so, but the trance is broken. The minotaur attacks Nate and breaks the lute. Trusting in Nate’s plan, for once, Hank grabs a guitar and sings the minotaur to sleep, finishing the mission in true Legends fashion. Nate sends his dad off to 2018 and stays with the team for a post-mission pizza party, which felt an awful lot like a farewell Nate party.

Matt is the author of the bestselling memoir Reasons to Stay Alive, along with novels including The Humans and The Radleys as well as several award winning children’s books. Matt is lucky enough that Benedict Cumberbatch has signed on to star and produce the film version of this book. How to Stay Alive is a book about immortality, or as close to immortality as one can get. Tom Hazard has been alive for centuries but he only looks like he is in his early forties, thanks to a genetic reconfiguration, mutation, what you will that for better or worse causes him to age very very slowly. The novel travels as does Tom (since he has all the time in the world) from Elizabethan England, where we fall in with Shakespeare for a few pages, to Jazz-Age lost generation Paris, where we converse with the Fitzgeralds, to New York, the South Seas, Australia. Tom is forced, to avoid suspicions of all kinds, to move every eight years or so to avoid detection as the folks around him get older and wrinkly and he stays the same as he was (outwardly). However you don’t leave the past behind, no matter how long you live and one of the hardest things Tom has to learn, imperfectly, is to never fall in love. Love transcends time.

William Faulkner once wrote: "The past is never dead; it is not even past." Perhaps the American writer was suggesting that we humans can never break away from the past and are forever bound to look back to a certain Golden Time. This almost universal sentiment for nostalgia constitutes the main theme of Woody Allen's new film "Midnight in Paris." A screenwriter named Gil is spending his vacation in Paris with his fiancé and her wealthy parents. Despite a successful Hollywood career, Gil always dreams about becoming a "real" writer. One day as he strolls along the streets of Paris at midnight, he is ushered into a vintage car, which takes him back to the Paris of the 1920s—the Golden Time that he loves. Every night from then on, he travels back in time to meet famous expat artists, including Ernest Hemingway, Gertrude Stein, the Fitzgeralds, as well as Pablo Picasso and his mistress with whom he develops an intimate relationship. The first notable element of this film is its spectacular visuals which appear to have undergone intense editing. The first three minutes is practically a showcase of the city's famous attractions. Even though you'll naturally question the beautifully picturesque scenes, you still can't help being dazzled. The kind of stunning visuals continue throughout the film, giving it the appearance of an outlandish fantasy. Next is the abundance of famous figures and quotes. An adequate amount would have added a certain artistic glamour to the film. But I have to say Allen went too far with this one. The careless and ceaseless popping up of names, figures and quotes goes on and on. For moviegoers who aren't that well-equipped artistically, they would have missed out on quite a considerable amount of fun. But I don't blame Allen for the overdose. He is just like the protagonist Gil in the film— ill at ease with his fiancé and her wealthy parents who could never appreciate his literary aspirations, while with his literary friends, he is humble and modest. Allen's fondness for passion is genuine, yet he hasn't figured out the best way to tap his potential. Thanks to Owen Wilson's vivid portrayal of Gil, Allen's minor mistake is perfectly redeemed. Finally, Allen addresses the question of nostalgia, arguing that since every generation longs for the good old times, perhaps we are living in a Golden Time in the present after all, and perhaps nostalgia is just an unnecessary sentiment. Instead of looking back, Allen has his protagonist return to reality and work for his own Golden Time. Woody Allen's ingenuity is found in his ability to combine dazzling visual effects, an overdose of artistic and literary elements, and his own philosophical thinking to make a successful film. On a scale from one to ten, I give this one a seven.

The passionate love affair between Zelda and F. Scott Fitzgerald has been one of the tragic and storied romances of our time. Broken by mental illness, alcoholism, adulterous relationships, and financial ruin, the devoted pair – soul mates and Jazz Age sweethearts – were fiercely loyal to their floundering marriage even to their last rendezvous on Cuban holiday in 1939. The Halli Casser-Jayne Show, Talk Radio for Fine Minds takes a look at the iconic Fitzgeralds, Wednesday, January 15, 2014, 3 pm ET with author R.

Scott and Zelda Fitzgerald Museum, Montgomery, Alabama.In poignant, stunning detail, R.

Deugdzame burgerlijkheid: als je de hele dag in de weer bent met boeken vergeet je weleens waar het leven werkelijk om gaat. Daarom werd woensdagavond 30 november tijdens de derde aflevering van Literaturfest de afwas gedaan. Ontwerper Gwendoline Pluim had speciaal voor de avond midden in de Rode Hoed een aanrecht neergezet en tijdens het bespreken van de nieuwste Dimitri Verhulst spoelden wij zelf de bierglazen af. Denk niet dat Literaturfest schroomt de broekriem aan te trekken in tijden van crisis. De gasten dit keer waren Philip Huff, Marian Donner en Literaturfest-sensei Bas Heijne. De avond begon met Philip Huff, die twee boeken van Nescio meebracht. Ernst-Jan sprak liever over de vreemde houding van Philip op zijn nieuwste auteursfoto, maar terloops kwamen ook Titaantjes en de Uitvreter ter sprake: Nescio schijnt nog steeds razend actueel te zijn en niemand aan tafel vond zichzelf een uitvreter. Nog meer moderne literatuur kwam ter sprake toen Bas Heijne op het podium verscheen om te vertellen over het in 1925 gepubliceerde The Great Gatbsy van F. Scott Fitzgerald. Er werd gesproken over Jay Gatsby, Daisy, Leonardo DiCaprio, Baz Luhrman en Zelda, Fitzgeralds vrouw die haar man zo kwelde. Of andersom. En op het hoogtepunt van de avond stond presentator Ernst-Jan Pfauth op, hief zijn handen in de hemel en wachtte tevergeefs tot de muziek aanging. Onder elke stoel bleek een gratis boek te zitten (dankzij uitgeverijen Babel & Voss, Lebowski Achievers, de Harmonie, Nijgh & Van Ditmar en LJ Veen) en dat werd aangekondigd met onze eigen versie van de Oprah Winfrey-show. Zoals zij weleens onder luid gekrijs gratis auto's uitdeelt, delen wij onder ongemakkelijk gegiechel van onze moeders gratis boeken uit. Barmhartig en betrokken, zo vinden wij zelf. Met Marian Donner spraken wij over Toergenjev, nadat we waren bijgekomen van de mededeling dat ze bij een escortbureau werkt. Vaders en zonen gaat over nihilisten. Net als de Big Lebowski dus. En over een generatie die de vorige niet meer begrijpt. Even kwam ook de baard van Tolstoj te sprake en een huilende Dostojevski. Dank voor al jullie aanwezigheid. In de Siberische novembermaand waren jullie een zonnestraal. Echt. Maandag 23 januari zijn we er weer. Aanmelden kan alvast op Facebook.

Deugdzame burgerlijkheid: als je de hele dag in de weer bent met boeken vergeet je weleens waar het leven werkelijk om gaat. Daarom werd woensdagavond 30 november tijdens de derde aflevering van Literaturfest de afwas gedaan. Ontwerper Gwendoline Pluim had speciaal voor de avond midden in de Rode Hoed een aanrecht neergezet en tijdens het bespreken van de nieuwste Dimitri Verhulst spoelden wij zelf de bierglazen af. Denk niet dat Literaturfest schroomt de broekriem aan te trekken in tijden van crisis. De gasten dit keer waren Philip Huff, Marian Donner en Literaturfest-sensei Bas Heijne. De avond begon met Philip Huff, die twee boeken van Nescio meebracht. Ernst-Jan sprak liever over de vreemde houding van Philip op zijn nieuwste auteursfoto, maar terloops kwamen ook Titaantjes en de Uitvreter ter sprake: Nescio schijnt nog steeds razend actueel te zijn en niemand aan tafel vond zichzelf een uitvreter. Nog meer moderne literatuur kwam ter sprake toen Bas Heijne op het podium verscheen om te vertellen over het in 1925 gepubliceerde The Great Gatbsy van F. Scott Fitzgerald. Er werd gesproken over Jay Gatsby, Daisy, Leonardo DiCaprio, Baz Luhrman en Zelda, Fitzgeralds vrouw die haar man zo kwelde. Of andersom.

Actor, Gothic Illusionist and Host Ron Fitzgerald is the Realm's multi-talented creator. Fitzgerald has performed from Hollywood to Hong Kong and beyond. Master Fitzgerad has worked in the Performing Arts, Theatre, Television, and Film over the past 25 years. He's a man that believes "Strange is Beautiful". With his Gothic persona, macabre wit, and taste for the wicked and weird side of Magic, he's Master of the Realm. Taking Magic where other magicians fear to tread, Fitzgerald is the only illusionist wild enough to be the closing act on the second stage at Lollapalooza. Fitzgerald is inspired by David Bowie NOT David Copperfield! His stage show features dark/edgy illusions, strange Magic, cool music, and a mad magician who looks like the front man for a rock band. It's been described as a kind of Gothic Illusion or Horror Magic." This show's a must for Halloween, Horror, Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Gothic, Vapmpire, Magic, events or any event you want to make unforgettable! If you despise normal magic shows, then you'll love Fitzgerald's Realm of Magic. It's dark, sticky vampire fun! "The Realm" also spawned a Chicago-based cable TV show for several years that gained a cult following. It was very different from what any other magician on TV has ever presented. "Fitzgerald's Realm" delivered Horror and Sci-Fi movie trailers, Gothic Magic, strange guests and macabre lunacy all in the fast-paced style more typical of a music video show. It was MTV of the living dead! Ron has also appeared on many other television shows, local and national.
