Full Hour | Today, Dom led off the Dom Giordano Program by offering his thoughts on last night's Women's NCAA Elite 8 matchup between Caitlin Clark's Iowa Hawkeyes vs. Angel Reese's LSU Tigers. Dom tells about a tweet from Megan Brock, who warned of the damage to women's sports that persists with the inclusion of Trans athletes, which leads Dom to a similar point. Then, Dom plays back a clip from Robert Kennedy Jr. on CNN who suggested that Biden, not Trump, is the bigger danger to Democracy. Then, Dom expresses his frustration that Florida's 6-week abortion ban is going to become an election reality, noting the damage that Trump faces if Florida flips due to the situation. Also, Dom reveals the Forbes Billionaire list, asking if Beyoncé recorded her country album after seeing Taylor Swift's ever-growing net worth. (Photo by Jessica Kourkounis/Getty Images)

主播：Selah | 翩翩 歌曲 ： We'll Be the Stars之前我们做过一期关于Kanye的节目，聊了他在中国度过的童年，his shoes and his music。最近，Kanye又又又在欧美成为了热议。Everyone has been talking about Kanye West,but not for the good（但都不是什么好事儿）. 到底是怎么回事呢？1. Kanye摊上什么事儿了In the last two weeks, he has lost deals with major fashion brands.侃爷面对的是一系列大品牌的解约，比如说Adidas（阿迪达斯），美国服装零售品牌GAP等。他的talent agency（经纪公司）也是cut deals with him。*经纪人是talent，你可以说“This is my agent Steven”（这是我的经纪人Steven）。不仅如此，he has lost deals with many relationships with the music industry（他的音乐事业也是凉了），他的music contract company（音乐合同公司）不愿意making music with him。*lost deals 丢了生意*cut deals 终止合作；解约*major fashion brands 大的时尚品牌这一切的一切，都是因为Kanye made some anti-black（反黑人） and antisemitic/anti-Jewish（反犹太人的）comments。He blamed Jewish people for his problems and problems within society. 他觉得一切的问题都是犹太人造成的，不管是his problems，还是problems within society（社会问题）。他支持larger Jewish hating world leaders（憎恨犹太人的世界领导人）和historical figures（历史人物），比如说希特勒。因为Kanye的想法，人们甚至把他当做someone that want to align themselves with in hating the Jewish people（所有憎恨犹太人的联结者）。*anti- 前缀，表示“反对……”*blame /bleɪm/ v. 责怪*figure /ˈfɪɡjər/ n. （重要的）人物*align /əˈlaɪn/ v. 与…联合前面我们聊Paris Fashion Week（巴黎时装周）的节目里，讲到Kanye在时装周上穿了一件卫衣，上面写着“White Lives Matter”，白人命重要。He also posted on Instagram wearing a “White Lives Matter” hoodie. 他把穿这件hoodie（连帽卫衣）的照片，发到了Instagram上。*hoodie /ˈhʊdi/ n. 连帽衫让人confused 的是，Kanye他自己就是黑人，怎么会有“anti-black”的举动呢？Kanye之所以痛恨犹太人，是因为he believes in many conspiracy theories（阴谋论） that demonize（妖魔化）Jewish people（他被一些把犹太人妖魔化的阴谋论给洗脑了）。*conspiracy /kənˈspɪrəsi/ n. 阴谋*demonize /ˈdi:mənaɪz/ v. 妖魔化他还发推特说，“go death con 3 on JEWISH PEOPLE”（去杀了犹太人）。*这条tweet中提到的“death con 3”是美军军事用语，意指美军的三级战备状态‘defcon 3'。Kanye的意思是，select forces are ready to deploy where needed in 15 minutes（一些犹太人要攻击他，他已经准备好在15分钟内回击）。原本Kanye was originally suspended from Twitter（在推特上被禁言了），因为Elon Musk bought twitter（埃隆·马斯克收购了推特），he was allowed back（他最近刚回归），但是，因为关于犹太人的不正当的言论，he has been suspended again（又被禁言了）。*deploy/dɪˈplɔɪ/ v.部署*suspend /səˈspend/ v. 暂停除了禁言，更严重的是他面对的各种品牌的合作切断：l His clothing line was pulled from GAP stores. 他的服装系列被从GAP商店下架了。l His ties with Adidas were severed（阿迪达斯和他终止了合作）。因为Adidas是他sneakers Yeezy's（椰子运动鞋）的major distributor（主要经销商），这让他lose $1.5 billion（损失15亿美元），Adidas因为这个决定，今年也损失了$246 million（2.46亿美元）。因为这一系列的解约，his new worthdropped to $400 million（他最近的资产下降到4亿美元），he is no longer on the Forbes Billionaire list（他在福布斯富豪榜上掉下来了）。*severe /sɪˈvɪr/ adj. 严峻的*distributor /dɪˈstrɪbjətər/ n.经销商*worth/wɜːrθ/ n. 资产2. 原来Kanye有BipolarDisorder（躁郁症）很多人都知道，Kanye喜欢saying extreme things（说极端的话），而且acting erratic（行为古怪）。*extreme /ɪkˈstri:m/ adj. 偏激的*erratic/ɪˈrætɪk/ adj. 古怪的Kanye躁郁症的表现有：前段时间他got divorced from Kim Kardashian（和卡戴珊离婚了），但他会frequently went online to hate on Kardashian's new boyfriend（频繁在网上憎恨前妻的新男友），而且还made threats to him（恐吓人家）。2009年的一次颁奖典礼上，Taylor Swift was accepting an award（泰勒正在台上领奖），Kanye冲上来说：Beyonce should have won it（得这个奖的应该是Beyonce）。因为Kanye不止一次地表现出erratic，所以美国很多人叫他Bipolar。BipolarDisorder就是躁郁症，症状是有时会很开心，有时又很低落，people don't know your personality or mood will be like（情绪不稳定，人们不知道你的个性或心情是怎样的）。他有很多比较典型的形象，比如戴个小帽子，上面写着“Make America Great Again”（振兴美国）。想象一下，他戴着特朗普最喜欢的这个小帽子和特朗普站在一起，真的是funny。*bipolar /ˌbaɪˈpoʊlər/ adj. 有两极的*disorder /dɪsˈɔ:rdər/ n. 混乱；疾病3. 美国人都怎么看他？He is a very controversial person.他是一个非常受争议的人。He is a very mixed character（个性很复杂）. You will either love him or hate him. （要么很受欢迎，要么惹人憎恨。）但是，最近一段时间，显然he has created even more enemies（树敌颇多）。但他的粉丝们still love him，竟然还决定launch a fundraiser to make him a billionaire again（发起筹款活动，让他再次成为亿万富翁）。*launch /lɔ:ntʃ/ v. 发起*fundraiser /ˈfʌndreɪzər/ n. 资金筹集活动还有人为他鸣不平，因为many brands have cut ties with him（很多大牌只是和他解约），not many of the problematic white people in Hollywood（而不是好莱坞其他有问题的白人明星）。*problematic /ˌprɑ:bləˈmætɪk/ 有问题的很多人把 his downfall（侃爷的衰败）跟 the success of Taylor Swift（泰勒的成功）作对比。这位网友发post说：在Kanye大受欢迎的世界里，做谁都行，就是不能成为Kanye。《冰雪奇缘》中，Olaf 的配音Josh Gad是犹太人，就Kanye的事情wrote a post，我们摘一句里面比较重要的话：His mental illness is not an excuse for his Neo-Nazi propaganda.精神疾病绝对不是借口。*Neo-Nazi /ˌnioˈnætsi/n. 新纳粹主义分子*propaganda /ˌprɑːpəˈɡændə/ n. 宣传欢迎大家留言、点赞、转发。一席文化在招聘英文人才，工作地点在美丽的海滨城市青岛，欢迎加入我们，和主播们一起教英文、一起录节目。

Somewhere in the flux of creative musical genius and muddled social crusader that makes up the mind of Kanye West also resides a desire for the world to see him as he is, a billionaire. When Forbes omitted him from their most recent Billionaires list this past March, Kanye didn't take it sitting down. He's been preaching to the world that he's a billionaire for a while now and he's finally got the receipts and product to prove it. After a series of disgruntled tweets and even more incendiary text messages to the staff at Forbes, Kanye's wealth was reexamined and last week Forbes admitted to their mistake. Kanye West IS a billionaire, only maybe not quite as big of a one as he says he is. Kanye West, exaggerating?? No way. Next, you're gonna tell me the sky is blue and that Carole Baskin didn't kill her husband. Guys, part of Kanye's appeal is that he's ALWAYS exaggerating, it makes the mythology of his brand and celebrity all the more appealing and he knows it. Forbes considered West's debt, assets, and expenses and came out with a total net worth of $1.3 Billion, which is impressive, but about $2 Billion less than Kanye says he's worth. So, who's right? Look, I'm not gonna pretend to be a lawyer with knowledge of the ins and outs of every complicated legal document that accounts for every last penny, but what I can do is take you guys through a ride of Kanye's bank account, a tale that includes crazy expensive mansions, the fastest cars, a shoe empire, and yes, even wildly inventive public housing ideas. At the end of it all, you guys can decide for yourself, is Kanye as rich as he says he is or did Forbes get it right?
It seems that no sooner does house come onto the market than someone snaps it up. This week we take a look at what is happening with the UK housing market and what impact the stamp duty holiday is having on supply and demand. From 95% mortgages to properties selling in record time, there's certainly lots to think about and ONS has the stats to explain in more detail. For our review this week we take a look at a book and a TED talk by Caroline Goyder. As a well highly respected and well connected speaking coach, Goyder's book Find Your Voice: The Secret to Talking with Confidence in Any Situation, gives us insights into not only how to talk with confidence but how our bodies actually talk. Apparently it's all in the breathing. For our profile we take another look at the Forbes Billionaire's list and delve deeper into the work of new entrant female entrepreneur Geeta Gupta-Fisker who, along with her husband is giving Elon Musk a run for his money in the electric car stakes. If you like what you hear then perhaps you would considering buying us a coffee (we love coffee!), or a book (we also love books!) www.buymeacoffee.com/tbcpodcast

It's time to get fact up. We've all heard about content marketing, and how valuable it is for your business. But content marketing isn't all about blogging. There's plenty of other types of content out there for you to generate and share out to the world. One of those that we're sharing with you today is podcasting. Podcasting is generally consumed on the move via a smartphone device and two major applications. One being iTunes on the iOS platform and Stitcher on Android. While smartphones allow us to stay connected all the time, they've also allowed for this huge boom in podcasting, which allows people to listen while they're on the go, driving in the car, or doing mundane tasks, like mowing the lawn or doing the dishes. This is one of the pivotal reasons why podcasting has become so popular. And also, with those niche topics out there, you can listen to exactly what you feel like listening to right now. This is the perfect opportunity to target your ideal client while you have their undivided attention. Remember, they're doing a mundane task or something else that stops them from being engaged with other human beings, or other things to distract them. So you have their undivided attention. Last year alone, iTunes recorded one billion subscribers. Wow. You can podcast from practically anywhere these days. Microphone technology has come a long way. MeMedia choose to podcast from right here at Burleigh Heads in our studio. But also out there at live events. You can mix it up any which way you choose and get some great content worth sharing. So how can you use podcasting for your business? MeMedia have found, through our research, that the conversational type of podcasts perform best. It works best when there's a conversation happening. For the listener, being part of a conversation they otherwise would not have had the opportunity to be part of, is truly awesome. So how are you going to use podcasting for your business? Obviously you can choose to shoot video and then strip out the audio thereafter and produce two different types of content, one visual, one audio. Or, you can just go straight down the audio line. MeMedia have really enjoyed creating podcasting content. And so we've created a community project called Mentor Revolution, which shares mentor stories for the budding entrepreneur. MeMedia are always looking for new mentors to share their story and help young entrepreneurs grow. If you think you've got a great story worth sharing, make sure you get in touch and become part of the Mentor Revolution. Or you can click to watch some of those podcasts here from this blog. As with all content you create, make sure your information is entertaining, educational or inspirational. Or all three, if you think you can pull it off. But don't just go out and create a commercial for your business. Or someone else's, for that matter. Offer some serious value. MeMedia don't believe there is an ideal time frame to create every podcast for. Your audiences will have different times when they can listen for longer and shorter. So mix it up a little. One additional side note is that in a recent survey of 300,000 podcast listeners, up to 63% of those listeners purchased something after listening to a podcast. Advertising shouldn't be completely removed from the podcast. It just shouldn't be the main topic. So, in that same survey, 71% of listeners said they've visited the show host website, or a referred website. And 62% said they considered a product or service that had been advertised via the podcast. As mentioned before, podcasting can fit well into your content marketing strategy. Producing video or audio will allow you to reach out into other spaces, with other types of content. As part of your content marketing strategy, generating podcasts can be done via video, audio or both, allowing to reach out into other networks with different content types. And that's definitely a good thing for your brand's reach. So of course, if you're going to start producing your own podcast, it's best to take some listening lessons from the best podcasts in the world. One of our favourites is Entrepreneur on Fire. We'd absolutely recommend you listen to that one. There's plenty others out there but it will depend on your niche. So do some category searches, do some category searches. I'm sure you'll find a podcast that's right for you. Again, you can listen on an iOS device via the podcasting app. Or on Android, via the Stitcher app. Enjoy your podcasting, and hey, maybe look up Mentor Revolution and give us a listen. So for your listening pleasure, we've listed many more podcasts in this blog. We hope you enjoyed this week, thanks for listening Australia. We'll see or listen to you soon. Ugh, valuable, valuable. And how valuable, how valuable it is. How valuable it is.
