Greetings once more in love, light, and wisdom as one.    The new session on side two starts off with the name Kelly Myers. Kelly was a friend of ours that Tia happened to come across in her astral travels. As a friend of Mark's, she had seen his aura signature. Just as we're getting to figuring out who will come on in that session, we find out immediately as Wing Commander Taal enters the door of the channeling room on the base so Tia gets up and lets him channel. His visit was mostly all business as he was dropping by to set up a training schedule for my flight training and search and rescue training. One other requirement he has for me is to get some healing training from the official healer of the Blue Guys. With us both becoming new fathers, he invited me to dinner where he would have a bottle of wine from his home world. A special wine he says with extra kick from a higher alcohol content. Before he leaves he mentions a flight he's organizing to Jupiter Station, the first time we've heard of this Station in the archives. Karra is back in this channeling session as well and right away we are discussing her favorite patient down here, Carrie, while she was still attending channeling sessions. A couple causes for her symptoms are discussed and would be addressed when she would attend the next channeling session. The main point of our discussion was the energy tools we had been experimenting with that combined crystals, copper tubes and copper wires. We were trying to re-create some Atlantean technology and one of our experiments have become too powerful. Her advice was to disassemble it and try again. She has me train with a less powerful tool we also created and we do a live firing of the energy collected. Ideally it would act as almost as a surgical scalpel once we went through various prototypes. She gives me directions to the healer I need to see which begins a discussion on the genetic heritage of the Blue Guy's race. We end with a discussion on redecorating our apartment on the base before Omal replaces her in the channeling field. Our first topic is on cosmic tides and how they are created. We move on from there to whether they can be utilized for healing. We learn there are too many factors involved to count on them. One important bit of teaching he provides is that it is possible to astral travel anywhere just by thinking of the place. It is called traveling at the speed of thought and comes after many years of enough travel trips to be able to pull it off. A great session with lots of new information for the archives.   For full transcripts of this session and more information about Hades Base and the 6th dimension, please visit our website:  http://hadesbasenews.com  The sessions lasted from 1992 to 2001 with this one being taped on 07/02/1996. Side two includes:   1.)(3:30)- Wing Commander Taal comes on to discuss a training schedule for when I am on the base for my help with a search and rescue operations. That is to include flight simulator training on easy stuff first. 2.)(9:24)- Karra and I review our experiments with copper tubes, copper wires and crystals to create energy wands for healing. We next go over the history of the Blue Guys and their genetic upgrades. 3.)(25:10)- Omal and I discuss cosmic tides, their causes and how they can be used. We also cover astral traveling somewhere instantly just by thinking of a place. He calls it traveling at the speed of thought.

Greetings in love, light, and wisdom as one.  It's the fall of summer and the arising of winter as we present September's channeling session from the members of Ashtar Command. As Tia comes on to start the session, we find out the base is two hours behind Pacific time and that Tia had seen the picture I had found down here that reminded me of her. Mark was also in agreement that it was pretty close. She reveals to us that she has trouble around crowds and even when she reports to large numbers of people. It's understandable as she is the only third dimensional member of the base. Two members of the command who scare her silly are Ashtar and Sananda, the latter having dropped by her office in the form of a cloud. An enjoyable problem to have for sure, having to interact with the major players of Ashtar Command. She steps aside for Karra who reveals she had seen Sananda three times previously but he was in a different body each time. Dealing with dignitaries brings up the fact that the planet Sirus has four continents split up into provinces. Kiri and Karra's dad was the head of one of those provinces at the time. He later become president of the planet. We began discussing crystals that we'd had been using in healing and how they were getting clearer the more they were used which allowed more energy to be stored. One amazing bit of information we learn is that astral travelers leave a small residue or membrane of themselves when they travel through a pyramid to leave their body. That membrane can then be turned into a gateway with the addition of a pentagram included in the base of the pyramid. Karra finishes up which leads her sister Kiri to wrap up the session with a description of the pyramid they have built for themselves in the backyard of Tia's, Mark's and Kiri's apartment. It's an elaborate set up that has to be heard be believed. We next delve into the fact that the earth has three major mountains on the equator which aid in the stability of the rotation of the planet. I wondered what the benefits would be if there was a series of crystals and pyramids were set up as well along the equator for planetary stability. We end the side with a discussion on the differences of someone standing on the top of one of the mountains at the equator and another person standing at the North Pole. What we discover is that the person at the north pole would have an easier time doing astral travel.   For full transcripts of this session and more information about Hades Base and the 6th dimension, please visit our website:  http://hadesbasenews.com  The sessions lasted from 1992 to 2001 with this one being taped on 071/02/1994. Side one includes:   1.)(0:00)- Tia confirms the analogy of seeking the holy Grail that goal  happens on their dimension. She describes as well Sananda dropping by her office in the form of a cloud before becoming solid temporarily.   2.)(9:44)- Karra explains that Sirius has four continents which are split into provinces and that her father heads up one. She also discovered that pyramids used for astral travel have a living membrane or field. 3.)(25:21)- Kiri describes the pyramid in their yard and the additions made when anything you want is available to use. That precedes a discussion on the differences found at the equator than anywhere else. .

When India-based reporter Amy Yee got a call from her editor to cover a press conference with the Dalai Lama, she stopped what she was doing and booked the next flight. She was headed for Dharamsala, where the Buddhist leader and thousands of Tibetan refugees make their home. It was March 2008, and the Dalai Lama was responding to violence in Tibet, where demonstrations against Chinese rule led to a government crackdown. At least 120 people had died, mostly ethnic Tibetans.  On that first visit to Dharamsala, Yee was struck by the throngs of Tibetans protesting peacefully in the streets. She was also surprised when the Dalai Lama approached her after the press conference, asked if she was Chinese, and embraced her in a warm hug.  A few months later, Yee quit her job at the Financial Times and moved to this small city in the foothills of the Himalayas as a freelance reporter. She writes that “Dharamsala is more than an ethnic enclave; it's a unique microcosm of a culture fighting for survival.” Her new book, Far from the Rooftop of the World: Travels among Tibetan Refugees on Four Continents follows the stories of ordinary Tibetans who have lived extraordinary lives. It also documents this community in exile: its education system, self-expression, and non-violent resistance.  In this second episode in our series on refugees and immigration, we take a look at what it means to build a new life, when you may never be able to go home; and how Tibetans have forged their own path in India and elsewhere.  Music in this episode by Joel Cummins, One Man Book, and Podington Bear ABOUT THE SHOW Making Peace Visible is hosted by Jamil Simon and produced by Andrea Muraskin, with help from Faith McClure.

In part two of our 2024 Worlds preview, we dig into the absolutely stacked Men's competition, including the “Thrivalry” between Shoma Uno, Ilia Malinin, and Yuma Kagiyama. Then we go deep into the Ice Dance lineup, which promises to be a close showdown between 3-4 top teams.   In this week's episode, we're shooting our final shot at predictions for the 2024 World Figure Skating Championships — this time discussing the men's and dance competitions.  From the “Trivalry” we're expecting to see between Ilia Malinin, Shoma Uno, and Yuma Kagiyama in the men's event to a probable four-way race for the podium in the dance event, we're holding our breath for these two competitions.  Men's Competition  This season has been an incredibly strong one in the men's division, making this event possibly the most competitive and anticipated of the World Championships events.  Coming in off his Grand Prix Final win, Ilia Malinin heads to Montreal as a definite favorite for the podium. He didn't have the best US Nationals, but also didn't have much competition there — so its possible that lessened his preparation. Regardless, he recently shared a quad toe loop / quad axel combination he's doing in practice — throwing an absolute gauntlet down to the rest of the field and clearly stating that he will be tough to beat if he skates cleanly. However, he's not alone in the “favorites” camp — Japan's Yuma Kagiyama and reigning World Champ, Shoma Uno, are coming in looking phenomenal. Kagiyama showed up better than ever at Four Continents back in February — taking that title in a dominant fashion and giving him a ton of momentum coming into Worlds. Uno has looked solid all season, but hasn't had quite the consistency and has been “plagued by the q” (I.e. quarter understated jumps) on a few occasions. We're crossing every finger and toe that he can bring to Montreal his fight and his special artistic magic — and get on that podium again! Also in the medal mix, the early-season frontrunner — Adam Siao Him Fa — comes in after having along break since winning his second European title. His last three competitions have looked a bit messier than the near-perfection of the first half of the season, but you cannot count out this exceptional Frenchman on the rise. Japan's Kao Miura arrives hungry to his first World Championships — and has far less pressure on him than his countrymen. It'll be very interesting to see what he can bring to the ice here. There are quite a few other men here who could show up and surprise everyone, including one of skating's favorite sons, Jason Brown of the U.S, who is a wild card here but can never be counted out. All in all, this feels like the first real step towards the next Olympics and expect to see some big programs here. Ice Dance Competition Reigning World Champions, Madison Chock & Evan Bates of the US, come here seeking a repeat win and two great skates in their adopted hometown of Montreal — and we're here for all of that. However, Canada's darlings, Piper Gilles & Paul Porrier, have home country advantage as well as the highest score of the season. Not to be outdone, Italy's Charlene Guignard & Marco Fabbri have shown extraordinary performances throughout the season and may be the most consistent of the top three teams. So, while Ice Dance is usually the most predictable, this competition feels like a toss up between the three powerhouse teams. Waiting just a tiny bit behind them and ready to take a big step forward are Great Britain's Lilah Fear & Lewis Gibson. They had a big surprise victory over Guignard & Fabbri at NHK Trophy last fall, and under the right circumstance on the right day, could slide onto the podium. It's a long-shot, but not impossible. What is wonderful about this competition is that there are also no less than a dozen other excellent teams all vying for top 10 finishes here. From Lithuania's brilliant Allison Reed & Saulius Ambrulevicius fresh off their European bronze medal to Finland's inventive Juulia Turkkila & Matthias Verslus to France's Evgeniia Lopareva & Geoffrey Brissaud who recently went viral with their rave-inspired exhibition program — there will be a lot of skating to love regardless of placement.  Follow Scoreography: Website — https://scoreography.show Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/scoreography Threads — https://www.threads.net/@scoreography BlueSky — https://bsky.app/profile/scoreography.show

We examine all the competition at the Four Continents Figure Skating Championships 2024 in Shanghai, China. We discuss the dominant, definitive gold medal wins, dozens of highly memorable performances, and a couple frustrating judge calls.   In the last major international skating competition before the 2024 World Championships, we saw some iconic performances — from many who may be destined for World medals — at the Four Continents Championships in Shanghai, China.  From a stunning season's best from Japan's Yuma Kagiyama to the continued dominance of Piper Gilles & Paul Porrier of Canada, to renewed hope for reigning pairs World Champions, Riku Miura & Ryuchi Kihara, this event felt like a preview for what we're about to see in Montreal this March. Men's Competition Yuma Kagiyama was in a league of his own here. Not that he didn't have incredible competition, but Yuma leveled up his already stellar programs this season and took another step towards what may be his first world title. Both programs saw increased difficulty, and while he had a couple of errors in his free skate, its hard to remember them since there was so much to be excited about. Seeing him at Worlds against Ilia Malinin and reigning World Champ, Shoma Uno, gets more exciting by the day. In silver, the ever-solid (in consistently improving) Shun Sato delivered his quad lutz (twice!) and continued to show why he is always a threat. We want to see him show more emotion and really develop a persona on the ice, but his talent is undeniable.  With his best showing this year, the bronze landed around the neck of the brilliant Junhwan Cha. After a rough start to his season due to injury, we've been seeing consistent improvement and a steady increase in his technical difficulty. Here, both performances brought the drama in the best way, and proved that Junhwan is definitely capable of showing up on the podium at Worlds again this year. The  most popular performances of the entire championship easily belonged to China's Boyang Jin — who delivered two incredible performances to wind up fifth, and was showered with stuffies from a grateful and excited home audience.  Pairs Competition At the top of the podium, this season's superstars — Canada's Deanna Stellato-Dudek & Maxime Deschamps — continued to deliver great performances, with a few unfortunate errors. The quality of so much of their skating is near-unmatched in the discipline right now, though unfortunately they have been plagued by challenges, in the singles elements especially. However, they still handily took the gold and continue to be the favorites going into the World Championships. In second, we saw the return of World Champions Riku Miura & Ryuchi Kihara from Japan. If you have listened to the podcast, you know we love this team — so it's no surprise that we are very excited to see them. As they are still getting back in the swing of competition, this was not their best showing — but still enough to take silver and bring a little of their magic to the ice. The newly crowned US National Champions, Ellie Kim & Danny O'Shea, took the bronze with two flawed but excellent programs that showed off their continuing development as a team. The throws still pose an issue for them, but their excellence in the lifts and improved singles elements have taken them to a new level in their trajectory. Women's Competition This competition saw a huge breakout for Japan's Mone Chiba. After an excellent showing at Japan Nationals, Mone came here and delivered two outstanding programs that were near-flawless. After a rough Grand Prix series, she has found more consistency and delivered the best programs we've seen from her yet. In silver position, South Korea's Chaeyeon Kim gave two solid performances that felt far more confident than what we saw in the Grand Prix Final. It solidifies her as South Korea's top woman competitor going into Worlds. Japan's Rinka Wantanabe landed her first triple axel of the season and earned the bronze in fantastic fashion. In fourth, Ava Marie Ziegler from the United States proved that her decision to skip Nationals for Four Continents may have been a good one since she scored over 200 again. This should solidify her as one the the top U.S. women going into next season — even without her getting a bid for Worlds. Ice Dance Competition Piper Gilles & Paul Poirier continued to dominate this season with two stellar programs, and earned their first Four Continents gold. While having a small twizzles issue in the rhythm dance, their free dance to Wuthering Heights was near flawless and completely captivating.  The silver was won by Laurence Fournier Beaudry & Nickolaj Sorensen, amidst Nik's continued assault investigation.  In the bronze medal position, Christina Carreira & Anthony Ponomarenko delivered a fantastic rhythm dance but did see some small errors creep into their free dance. Another American team, Emilia Zingas & Vadim Kolsnik, gave possibly their best performances of the season and landed solidly in fourth.  In fifth, with possibly our favorite performances in this discipline, the Canadian team of Marie-Jade Lauriault & Romain le Gac received a questionable deduction for an lift they have been performing all season in the rhythm dance, but moved up in the standings with their stellar and inventive free dance to the music of The Corpse Bride.  Follow Scoreography: Website — https://scoreography.show Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/scoreography Threads — https://www.threads.net/@scoreography BlueSky — https://bsky.app/profile/scoreography.show  

We recap the exciting US Nationals 2024 competition from Columbus, OH, featuring a dramatic upset in the women's event, a stellar fight for the podium in Ice Dance, promising performances from the Men, and an underwhelming Pairs event.   The 2024 US National Championships gave us a little bit of everything. We saw a quad axel and second nationals win from a slightly messier than usual Ilia Malinin. We witnessed a Women's final where Amber Glenn and Isabeau Levito both struggled — with Amber scoring just enough to take her first national title. An awful case of the flu still didn't stop Chock and Bates from taking the Ice Dance gold. Lastly, we watched a Pairs field filled with promise but, unfortunately, so many errors. Women's Competition The biggest story out of this event is the long-awaited win for fan favorite, Amber Glenn. We were amongst those pulling for her on every jump from home — and while she did have a great short program and landed her triple axel, the second half of her long program suffered from several errors that but the top of the podium in doubt. However, Isabeau Levito — who led after the short program — had three falls in her free skate and had to settle for the bronze. In the silver spot, we saw perhaps the highlight of the competition from Josephine Lee. She delivered two fantastic programs, with her free skate being the cleanest of the night. She's too young to go to Worlds this year, but watch out for her in years to come! Ice Dance Competition Madison Chock & Evan Bates stunned with their Queen rhythm dance, which was helpful because their free dance saw some uncharacteristic errors due to them both dealing with a horrible case of the flu. They nearly withdrew from the competition, but had enough in the tank to still take gold. In second, with what seemed like breakout performances from them, Christina Carreira & Anthony Ponomarenko shined. Their free dance especially won the night, and saw them skate with their full technical and artistic prowess — but also with more emotion and freedom than we've seen before. Taking the bronze, a bit of surprise came with the medal for Emily Bratti & Ian Somerville. This young team has all it takes to have a big career, with Ian especially bringing star-power to the ice. But their podium-step ahead of former silver medalists Caroline Green & Michael Parsons in this competition was unexpected, though well-earned. Men's Competition As expected, Ilia Malinin dominated the competition with quads a-plenty. He even broke out the quad axel in the free skate — along with an unplanned triple lutz / triple axel / triple toeloop combination near the very end to make up for a few errors and secure the top spot. In silver, the class of the field Jason Brown skated two gorgeous programs, which both saw uncharacteristic falls. He still had him trademark appeal — and, most importantly for Team USA, enough quality and exceptional skill to rely on at Worlds. In bronze, a wonderful completion for Camden Pulkinen landed him not only on the podium but also won him a trip to Worlds. In fourth, we saw a stellar showing from Maxim Naumov. Looking forward to more from him at Four Continents. Pairs Competition At the end of the short program, favorites Spencer Howe & Emily Chan led the field. However, due to Spencer's continued recovery from surgery, they withdrew from the competition — though were still selected for the World team. The pairs that remained mostly struggled with singles elements and delivered a fairly messy competition. In the end, Ellie Kim & Danny O'Shea squeaked out a victory. Right behind them, the new team of Alisa Efimova & Misha Mitrofanov won the free skate and showed they have a lot of skill — look for them to move up over the next few seasons. In third, Valentina Plazas & Maximiliano Fernandez took their first National's bronze with a crowd-pleasing performance in the long program.

We look at the somewhat underwhelming Canadian Nationals 2024 event, with surprise wins from Wesley Chiu and Kaiya Ruiter (except we predicted that one!), and flawed performances from gold-winning favorites Stellato-Dudek & Deschamps and Gilles & Poirier.   Canadian Nationals 2024 Commentary and Analysis The 2024 Canadian National Championships in Calgary saw some great performances, but unfortunately quite a few more disappointments. From the highs of Piper Gilles & Paul Poirier winning their third national title, to the struggles of many of the favorites in the men's and women's competitions, it was a challenging event that suffered (but sustained) through low attendance, no broadcast parter, and sub-zero temperatures. Ice Dance Competition As the marquee event of the National Championships, there was certainly pressure on the top teams to perform well — and Piper Gilles & Paul Poirier met that challenge to take their third national title. Their rhythm dance was a bit tighter than usual here, but their free dance continues to evolve and get stronger, which bodes well for them going into Four Continents and the World Championships. With the withdrawals of both Lawrence Fournier-Beaudry & Nikolaj Sorensen and Marjorie Lajiois & Zak Lagha, the door was open for two other fantastic Canadian dance teams — Marie-Jade Lauriault & Romain Le Gac and Alicia Fabbri & Paul Ayer — to take their respective and well-earned podium spots. Men's Competition Wesley Chiu threw down a great short program, which helped sustain him through a nervous free skate and bolster him to win his first national title. The silver and bronze medalists, Aleksa Rakic and Anthony Paradis, were both a bit surprising. Paradis, who is just 16 years old, showed remarkable artistic ability and professionalism through an equipment malfunction to land on the podium — which may have been the highlight of the whole comp. Coming into this event, three of the favorites were Conrad Orzel, Stephen Gogolev, and — returning to competition after a year — former Canadian National Champ, Roman Sadovsky. All three men had rough short programs that pushed them far down in the standings. Gogolev had to withdraw due to injury before the long, and neither Orzel nor Sadovsky were able to recover well enough to make the podium. Pairs Competition As expected, the remarkable team of Deanna Stellato-Dukek & Maxime Dechamps retained their national title — but it was not easy. Their short program had more errors than they typically see, still landing them in first but only barely. However, in their free program, they skated mostly clean and polished after messy side-by-side jumps to easily take the victory. In second, the on-the-rise team of Lia Pereira & Trennt Michaud had a solid short program to stay close. After a less stellar free skate, the team comfortably landed in the silver spot ahead of Kelly Ann Laurin & Loucas Éthier. Womens Competition This discipline saw the upset of the event with 17 year-old Kaiya Ruiter taking her first national title. While her short program was not what she'd hoped for, Kaiya came back with a strong free skate that put her well ahead of the expected winner, Madeline Schizas. Schizas had a solid short program, but struggled with her jumps and her energy on the ice during the free skate. The result was disappointing, but should keep Maddie's spot on the World team assured. In third, the young Hetty Shi skated well enough to take second in the free skate behind Kaiya and end up with her first senior national medal.

The 2024 South Korean National Figure Skating Championships saw a return-to form from World silver medalist, Jun-hwan Cha, the continued rise of Jia Shin, and performances from Hai-in Lee, Chae-yeon Kim, and Young You that appear to have earned them spots on the 2024 World Championship team for South Korea. Men's Competition Following a rough first half of the season for him, now eight time South Korean champion, Jun-hwan Cha, threw down two stellar programs and earned him his trip back to Worlds. His technical content was watered down, similar to the content he included at the Korean Ranking Competition late last year, but looked much more comfortable and confident on the ice here. He'll need to increase difficultly at Four Continents and Worlds to be competitive, but this was a remarkable step in the right direction for him. Also showing up well here was Si-hyeong Lee, who was stronger here than he has been in a while and looked like he'd made some improvements in his interpretation. His silver here will take him back to Worlds in Montreal this March. Women's Competition The women's competition was an interesting one, since 4 of the top 7 women here were Junior Level skaters. That said, the now two-time National Champion, Jia Shin, looked anything but junior here. Both of her programs were elegant, musical, and highly technical. Her win by almost 13 points over reigning Senior World Silver medalist, Hae-in Lee, was a decisive one. Hae-in Lee did have her strongest event of the season here, with a new short program that suited her style quite well. Her score ceiling is certainly higher with these two programs, so here's hoping she can continue to improve headed into Four Continents and Worlds. In third, Chae-yeon Kim came back from a 9th place short program to step onto the podium. Her long program was strong enough to give the impression that, had she had a clean short, she may have challenged for gold. This bodes well for her headed into the rest of the season. Three other juniors, Yu-seong Kim, Yu-jae Kim, and Min-sol Kwon, took 4th-6h — all with very strong showings. This number of competitive women still in Juniors gives South Korea a great shot at future success if they can continue at the level they are at. In seventh (but gold in our hearts!) was Young You. Her fantastic short program had her in second going into the long, but her lower technical content level in the long as well as a number of small mistakes dropped her to 7th overall. Regardless, it looks like she will still be on the senior World team due to so many ahead of her being juniors. We can't wait to see her again! Ice Dance Competition This competition was more of an official coronation, since Hannah Lim and Ye Quan were the only team qualified to compete here. They were, as always, a joy to watch while earning first Senior National title— again showing why they are a team of the future!

Since China's annexation of Tibet in the 1950s, more than 100,000 Tibetans have fled the mountainous region, known as the rooftop of the world. Most of those refugees live with the Dalai Lama in Dharamsala, India, citizens of what's considered the Tibetan government in exile. Journalist Amy Yee has been documenting the stories of Tibetans outside Tibet — in Dharamsala, as well as in Australia, Belgium and New York — and their efforts to preserve their culture abroad. We talk to her about the people, places and rituals she chronicles in her new book, “Far From the Rooftop of the World: Travels Among Tibetan Refugees on Four Continents.” Guests: Amy Yee, Bloomberg journalist and author of the new book, “Far from the Rooftop of the World: Travels among Tibetan Refugees on Four Continents”

We catch-up on all the mid-season news and competition, including French, British, German, Swiss, and Spanish Nationals, the Four Nationals multi-country competition, the South Korean ranking event, and the Grand Prix Final's Juniors and Gala events. We also talk about injury news, the ISU Award nominations, and more. Following the 2023 Grand Prix Final last week in Beijing, China, there was little downtime as many skaters hurried to their National Championships around the globe. We cover the French, German, Swiss, and Spanish Figure Skating Nationals, as well as the Four Nationals multi-country competition. We also look back on British Nationals, the South Korean ranking event, the Junior Grand Prix Final, and quite a bit of news from around the skating landscape — including the nominations for the ISU Awards. All that to say: there are really no real off-weeks during skating season! News, Injuries, other things There's been a lot happening outside of competitions that we want to catch up on. From the unfortunate news of Niina Petrakina breaking her leg to the confirmation that both the teams of Riku Miura & Ryuchi Kihara and Hocke & Kunkel are out of their respective nationals due to injury, we're seeing some assumed medal contenders in question for the rest of the season. We also discuss the long-missing-from-competition Daniel Grassl, who's looking at a potential two-year suspension based on the recommendation of Italian anti-doping agency. On a lighter note, we dig into the ISU Award Nominations that just came out — and some of their questionable categories. Regardless, your can vote for your favorites until Jan 7, 2024. Winners to be announced Feb 11 at the Art on Ice event in Switzerland. The Many National Competitions Since there was so much happening, we stuck to the highlights and most newsworthy at each competition: French Nationals: We dig into the landslide victory of Adam Siao and the devastating free skate of Kevin Aymoz. British Nationals: Fear & Gibson won big,  but did it cost them the podium at GPF? German Nationals: Hase & Volodin continue their winning streak with their first German National Title — winning by 90 pts! Swiss Nationals: Lukas Britschgi soared in short program on his way to victory, and Kimmy Repond successfully returned to competition following her break due to injury to win the title.  Spanish Nationals: The first trip to their national championship for Olivia Smart & Tim Dieck proved victorious. (Though—and this didn't make the episode recording—they were weirdly NOT named to the Spanish World team. More to come here!) Four Nationals: Skaters from Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, and Hungary competed with the most notable winners being Ekaterina Kurakova winning her 6th national title, Katerina Mrazkova & Daniel Mrazek taking dance, and Maria Pavlova & Aleksei Sviatchenko dominating the pairs.  South Korean ranking competition: Jun-hwan Cha was forced to compete while injured to qualify for Four Continents, and did so with a win. Yelim Kim and Haein Lee continued to struggle this season. Junior Grand Prix Finals While we broke down the Senior Grand Prix last week, this episode we talk about a few of the highlights from the Juniors competition. In dance, we were overwhelmingly impressed by an outstanding US ice dance team — Leah Neset & Artem Markelov — who came out with a gold medal and a lot of momentum. Keep an eye on them in seniors soon! Also very noteworthily, the continued rivalry between two incredible young women – Mao Shimada from Japan and Jia Shin from South Korea. In what promises to be a competition we'll see replayed over and over again in coming years, Mao Schimada overtook the gloriously musical Jia Shin for gold — but had to come from behind her after the short program. Expect a lot of back-and-forth for the top podium spots between these two if they stay this good in Juniors for now, and Seniors when they get there.  Follow Scoreography: Website — https://scoreography.show Instagram — https://www.instagram.com/scoreography Threads — https://www.threads.net/@scoreography BlueSky — https://bsky.app/profile/scoreography.show

A weekly magazine-style radio show featuring the voices and stories of Asians and Pacific Islanders from all corners of our community. The show is produced by a collective of media makers, deejays, and activists. SURRIJA  Our guest tonight is no stranger to your ears. She is most recently known for being the voice of Opera Evelyn in the song “Opera Fight” in Everything Everywhere All at Once that premiered in 2022. Tonight we're talking about music, diving deep and doing the work, and everything Surrija.  SURRIJA (self-titled album) is an electro art pop rebirth that plays with asymmetry, textures, glitch, electronic treatment of intense classical training, and holding complex emotions in one place. The album features drummer Matt Chamberlain (David Bowie, Bob Dylan, Fiona Apple, Sean Watkins, Tori Amos, Perfume Genius), co-produced by Surrija, Sophocles, and Maxwell Gualtieri. After a break from music, she spent four years developing this record and wanted to make music that more closely reflected her feral tendencies. The result is unhinged and off-kilter. Earmilk claims “is simply on a different wavelength … chilling and seductive..”. Classical piano training, degree in choral conducting, singer-songwriter/folk roots, and theatre work all made for a unique sum in this album. “I'm made of a lot of genres and it was always audible. In the end I still think I'm best at putting my hands on the instrument, being tactile, hearing organics. Electronic experimentations of this landed me squarely in this new sound.” Surrija is about finding voice and is a strong genre pivot from her previous songwriter roots.

Good morning, everyone. Today I want to talk to you about being curious and resilient. We all have our own struggles and it's important to remember that we can always find ways to come out of them stronger. One great example of this is our next guest; Julianne Bosch, a mom CEO, life and career coach, and author who has moved her family 13 times across four continents. She wrote a book called How a Mother Took Her First Step on the Moon, a mother's keepsake journal of advice to my children. When Julianne was turning 50, she was dreading it. Her cousin was diagnosed with a 1% survival rate of anaplastic thyroid cancer and it made Julianne realize that if she was no longer here, how would she give gifts to people instead of receiving gifts for her 50th birthday. This inspired her to write the book and on her 50th birthday, she sent it to her three children as a gift. Julianne wrote in the book to not give advice, but to tell her children what she did and not say, "do this, this is the rule book." She wanted them to take what they needed and adapt it to what they wanted and then use it. She also asked them powerful questions like, what is your integrity? This is so important in today's chaotic world with war and pandemic and shootings happening. We need to keep that curiosity and learning going. Julianne also learned from her children. They told her that their story of a situation was different than what she wrote in the book and she told them to rewrite it and to tell her what they thought so that they could have a conversation. Julianne's children have a resilience that she didn't have in her 20s. They have the three E's: educated, employed, and elsewhere. Their elsewheres humble her and show her that they are doing things in their 20s that she didn't do. It's important to be curious and resilient in life. We can learn from others and we can also learn from our own children. Julianne's story is a great example of this and I hope it has inspired you to be curious and resilient in life.
