Get More LVWITHLOVE Content at LVwithLOVE.com George, Crystal, and Dahlia from Lehigh Valley with Love spent the day at Lake Nockamixon State Park with the team from L.L. Bean Outdoor Discovery Programs to try out just a few of the activities they offer throughout the summer. From archery to kayaking to full moon paddles, these programs are built to help anyone, regardless of experience, get outside and try something new. They spent time with Lindsey Johnson, Program Coordinator and ACA Level 1 Kayak Instructor, who shared how these programs are designed for all ages, skill levels, and abilities. They also met with instructors Ruth, Craig, Dylana, and Sarah, who bring passion, experience, and approachability to everything from kayaking to archery, helping make the outdoors accessible and fun for everyone. L.L. Bean's Outdoor Discovery Programs are based at Lake Nockamixon and the Promenade Shops in Center Valley, offering kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, archery, fly casting, guided hikes, and more. With options for beginners, group outings, and even night paddles under the full moon, there's something for everyone looking to get outside.

L.L. Bean Outdoor Discovery Programs WDIY Lehigh Valley Health Network Wind Creek Event Center Michael Bernadyn of RE/MAX Real Estate Molly’s Irish Grille & Sports Pub Banko Beverage Company A Day Outside with L.L. Bean — And Why More People Need to Do This You don't usually associate archery safety talks with jokes about Sasquatches or see your kid aim an arrow at a tennis ball in the rain and absolutely light up. But that's exactly what happened when we spent a day with the L.L. Bean Outdoor Discovery Programs at Lake Nockamixon. This wasn't just a video shoot or podcast episode. It was the kind of day that sticks with you. Not because it was perfect (it rained), but because it was real. And more people need this kind of real right now. Listen to the Episodewww.lehighvalleywithlovemedia.com/podcast/llbeanoutdoordiscovery Explore the Programshttps://www.llbeanoutdoors.com/quakertown-pennsylvania “We want to give you the best first experience you could have.” That's what Lindsey Johnson, Program Coordinator and ACA Level 1 Kayak Instructor, told us early on. And it's not something you'd expect to take seriously — until you spend time with the instructors she works with. People like Ruth, who's been doing this for 15 years and still lights up when she talks about getting people on the water.Or Craig, who took a kayak class in college and came back to it in retirement, just because it made him feel something.Or Dylana and Sarah, who took our family (and a camera crew) through the archery basics without a hint of condescension, even when we had absolutely no idea what we were doing. This is what makes this program work: not the gear or the branding — but the people. These instructors aren't reciting from a script. They believe in this stuff. And they're patient enough to help you believe in it too. The Outdoors Is Not a Vibe. It's a Reset Button. We talk a lot about “disconnecting” these days. But for most people, that still means standing around staring at your phone with a different background. This wasn't that. Out at Lake Nockamixon, even with raindrops on the camera lens and a soggy hoodie, things felt clearer. Dahlia learned how to shoot a bow. Crystal got advice on safety lines and string tension from someone who could probably teach blindfolded. We paddled. We laughed. We dried off. We reset. You don't have to be “outdoorsy” to do this. That's the point. These programs are built for beginners. You don't need to own anything. You don't need to know what you’re doing. You just need to show up. “Even if you’ve never been to a lake before,” Lindsey told us, “we want you to feel like this is a place for you.” It is. Why This Stuff Matters We asked about accessibility. They talked about the ADA-accessible boat launch and helping kids from the Boys & Girls Club feel safe getting in the water for the first time. We asked about skill levels. They said they welcome people who've never touched a paddle and also offer sea kayaking, rescue courses, and night paddles under the full moon. We asked about groups. They've worked with Girl Scouts, bachelor parties, corporate team-building retreats, and even entire families who want to do something different for their reunion. So yeah, this is recreation. But it's also something bigger. This is how you build confidence in kids. This is how you reconnect with your spouse. This is how you remember what it feels like to be out of your head for a while. And if all you take home is a few mosquito bites and a blurry photo of your first bullseye, honestly? That's still a win.

In this episode of Supply Chain Decoded, host Jenni Ruiz sits down with Kara Smith Brown, founder and CRO of LeadCoverage, and author of the Amazon bestseller The Revenue Engine to break down what most supply chain companies get wrong about marketing and go-to-market strategies. Kara shares how getting fired (and making babies) sparked her entrepreneurial journey, and how a kismet collaboration with co-founder Will Haraway led to the creation of LeadCoverage. From there, she's helped drive hundreds of millions in revenue for clients by shifting them from outdated tactics (hello, cold calls) to modern, data-driven strategies centered on sharing good news, tracking interest, and following up. This episode tackles: - The #1 mistake companies make before launching a marketing campaign - The difference between strategic intent data and AI—and why lumping them together is a big problem - Why follow-up is a lost art and 35 touch points might just be your magic number - How Kara's framework works for scrappy startups and enterprise giants alike - What “random acts of marketing” really look like (and how to sniff them out) - The story behind her viral Girl Scout cookie experiment and its surprising freight lessons Whether you're a marketer, a founder, or anyone in between, Kara's straight-shooting advice will challenge you to think deeper, measure smarter, and lead better. -- Disclaimer: All views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the speakers and do not necessarily reflect the views or positions of Transfix, Inc. or any parent companies or affiliates or the companies with which the participants are affiliated, and may have been previously disseminated by them.

https://youtu.be/wn9XOB_H-as Dave Molenda, Business and Sales Coach, Speaker, Best-selling Author, and Host of the Positive Polarity Podcast, is driven by a mission to help business owners grow intentionally by strengthening their teams and delivering exceptional customer experiences. We dive into Dave's journey and his ST+ICE=P Formula, which stands for Strengthen the Team + Improve the Customer Experience = Profit. Dave explains how focusing first on internal team engagement leads to outstanding customer experiences, which then fuels sustainable business growth. We also discuss lessons from his book Growing On Purpose, why most businesses grow by accident rather than design, how to spot hidden blind spots, and when letting go of the wrong customers is the right move for your company's health and future. --- Cover Your Blindspots with Dave Molenda Good day, dear listeners, Steve Preda here with the Management Blueprint podcast. And my guest here is Dave Molenda, who is a business and sales coach, speaker, best-selling author and the host of the wonderful Positive Polarity podcast. Dave, welcome to the show. Hi, Steve. how are you today? I'm doing pretty good because I'm meeting you, so it's already injecting some positivity in my day. Well good, I'm honored to be hanging out with you and thanks to you for being on our episode 260. I loved our question, “does your business have Covid?” That was a blast. So that was a great episode. So, for anyone listening, if you wonder if your business has Covid, I'm not going to tell you anything else other than head over and listen to Steve's answer to that question. It was awesome. Well, hopefully your business doesn't have Covid because it's a potentially lethal malady. Exactly. For sure. But it was, it really was a fun episode and we created a lot of snippets that we put on our website, so we definitely are excited about it. Awesome. But we're not going to talk about this because we are going to talk about your stuff and what you are doing because it is at least as good, if not better, and we are going to dive into your frameworks, your book and all your experiences, your “Why” and all that good stuff. So, are you ready? I'm ready. I got my seatbelt on. I'm all set here so we can go as fast or as slow as you want. Okay, so let's fast track into my favorite question. What is your personal “Why,” Dave? And how are you manifesting it in your practice and in your business? Yeah, for sure. I tell you, it's interesting, Steve. I love the name of your podcast, using a blueprint as a framework, because I can't believe how many people start and try to grow a business without a blueprint, without some kind of framework. So I love unpacking that with you on my show. But my “Why” is for all the people that are out there that are so good at what they do, they're good at their craft, they're good at their skill, whether it's building a house, whether it's selling something, whatever it is, making something, they're so good at that. But boy, they struggle when asking the question about, how do I grow this business? How do I create a team? How do I develop this team? How do I make this a long-lasting business? So my “Why” is really coming alongside of those people. Again, genuine people, really good at what they do, but they very often are struggling with what to do once they have gotten to the end so far.Share on X They've asked all their neighbors and friends, they've asked all their acquaintances to buy whatever they have. I don't know about you, but we get inundated with all the Girl Scout cookies from all your friends and family. But rarely do you get a knock on the door from somebody that you don't know. So my whole goal is to help businesses that are struggling, that want to grow. And so we come alongside them and help them again and create a blueprint different than yours. Our blueprint a lot of times involves the customer.

Most high achievers never look back and see how far they've come. They tend to focus on perfection and not wanting to let anyone down. Because of their outward focus on others - colleagues, customers, or employees - They often don't know how to be empathetic and tender with themselves.Empathy starts with self-awareness and self-care so leaders who want to achieve their goals would be wise to practice tenderness and empathy for themselves first. This kind of self-reflection and tenderness for self will help them be an effective and inspiring leader for others.Today, author and leadership coach Lauree Ostrofsky joins us to talk about self-empathy and owning your leadership style. Lauree shares how challenging and yet worthwhile self-empathy can be. We discuss the downside of empathy and how to balance focusing on others with caring for yourself. She talks about how to develop our sense of self so we don't fear reinvention, we can take better risks, and avoid unnecessary worry or anxiousness that doesn't serve us. To access the episode transcript, please search for the episode title at www.TheEmpathyEdge.comKey Takeaways:Dig into your fears and discomforts. It may just be an opportunity that is outside your comfort zone and making you feel vulnerable. Fear is an opportunity. Make a list of compliments you receive as you receive them - we need the physical evidence of what we have accomplished and where we have been to see how we've gained the confidence we have now.Sometimes you have to give yourself space before you can give space to the other person to hear and empathize with what they're saying and needing. Own who you are without apology. You can invite people in and invite them to also own who they are. "There's a way to value people and value yourself at the same time, and it really takes understanding of yourself." — Lauree OstrofskyFrom Our Partner:SparkEffect partners with organizations to unlock the full potential of their greatest asset: their people.

Madison Kosh, Millennial, is the Senior Director of Program and Training at Girl Scouts, Heart of Central California. A dedicated mom of two, she is passionate about championing girls' ambition and creating meaningful group experiences. With over a decade of outdoor leadership experience and seven years of leadership within Girl Scouts, Madison is committed to equipping girls with the skills and confidence to navigate the world, find their voice, and create lasting change in their communities. Her deep love of the outdoors has shaped her journey—from Girl Scout to wilderness guide, outdoor retail expert, camp director, and now Senior Director of Program and Training—fueling her mission to empower the next generation of leaders.What You'll Learn in This Episode:0:00 Introduction1:05 Madison's Leadership Start5:43 Girl Scout Journey9:00 Why for Girl Scouts11:51 Parent's Leadership Thoughts 14:53 Biggest Challenges16:37 GenZ Impact20:31 Gen Alpha Impact24:26 Programs29:08 How to Support Girl Scouts31:16 20-Something Self AdviceQuotable Moments:“Nothing challenges you more as a leader than taking a group of people out into the wilderness where you're in survival mode.”“We need to teach young girls how to be confident and have the skills needed to live in this world.”“Who do you think runs this whole camp?”“All the things that parents are looking for their child to have are within Girl Scouts.”“GenZ is craving that connection but they are so busy!”"There's a trend in Gen Alpha research that shows that persistent sadness and hopelessness in teenage girls increased from 36% in 2011 to 57% in 2021. (CDC)"“In prior years the #1 response was mom as a child's key role model.”“We are trying to create a space for every girl or everyone who associates as a girl or associates with the Girl Scout experience.”“We're really creating a space where girls can come and be themselves as nurture that and give them the skills to be resilient, be confident when they walk into any room, and she knows that she belongs and can succeed. Having personal growth and a strong sense of self that can keep her emotionally anchored through both good and tough times.”“Also girls get a bigger understanding of the world – a global element.”“Buy Girl Scout cookies!” “Happy Birthday, Madison!”Three Episode Takeaways:1. It's important for girls to have interaction with women in strong leadership positions. 2. Parenting is challenging. The encroachment of technology and the belief that the world is unsafe and increasingly divided can lead to parental fear and isolation. The focus is on family and want their kids to develop skills, and new styles of leadership. Most important is having the child be their authentic self. Mental wellness is a primary concern. 3. Research indicates that people know what Girl Scouts is but they don't know what Girl Scouts do outside cookies. We have a lot to learn from GenZ. The data indicates: strong entrepreneurship, high anxiety, skepticism, and high agency (“I can do this”). They crave downtime and the ability to do nothing and want to build relationships/friendships. Gen Alpha is all in on technology as a way to learn. They aspire to be influencers, do not see mom as a role model and are looking.  Episode Resource:Ep. 7, Girl Scouts: More than just cookies?”https://spotifycreators-web.app.link/e/zY0gryNR9SbHow to reach Madison & Support Girl Scouts:madison.kosh@girlscoutshcc.orghttps://www.girlscoutshcc.org/https://girlscouts.org(find your local Council)FB & Insta https://www.facebook.com/GSHCC1/LinkedIn: company/girlscoutshccHow to reach Yo: Our website:www.girltaketheleadpod.com You can send a message or voicemail there.

Dr. Victor Vogel, a former oncologist turned flight instructor, founded the nonprofit Susquehanna STEM to the Skies to improve STEM education in rural Pennsylvania. The aviation-based STEM program was launched to address declining science and math scores among students, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic. By combining aviation concepts with hands-on learning, the program offers a powerful way to teach science, technology, engineering, and mathematics in real-world contexts. Victor discovered that aviation offers rich, practical applications for STEM—such as flight navigation, time-speed-distance calculations, weight and balance, and engineering challenges. At the heart of the program is a Redbird FMX full-motion flight simulator, which draws students to the airport and anchors immersive educational experiences. Victor quickly learned that involving educators—not just pilots—was critical. Today, the board includes school superintendents, career technical center (CTC) leaders, and drone experts. Students experience aviation careers beyond piloting, including aircraft maintenance, drone operation, medical helicopter crews, and aerospace engineering. Field trips, Girl Scout and Boy Scout aviation badge events, career fairs, and summer STEM camps all expose kids to high-demand aviation-related fields. Programs often include time in the simulator, tours of LifeFlight helicopters, and visits to maintenance hangars and paint shops. Partnering with Sun Technical Institute, the program offers career-track students opportunities to fabricate metal airplanes and build Mars rover kits. A Redbird J desktop simulator expands access for physically challenged students. Another initiative included building a pedal-powered Piper Cub with students, demonstrating how aviation and vocational trades can intersect creatively. Several success stories highlight the program's impact. One former flight attendant is now a multi-rated certified flight instructor after a single inspiring simulator session. Others have moved on to flight schools, the Air Force Academy, or regional airline careers. The program's ripple effect is also reaching educators. One high school band director attended the AOPA High School STEM Symposium, launched an aviation club, and introduced aviation curriculum into his school. The organization was incorporated as a 501(c)(3) in late 2020—just as the COVID-19 pandemic was surging. Despite the initial slow progress, Victor journaled his efforts during the pandemic, later publishing them in his book Pains and Planes, which captures both the struggle of cancer patients during COVID and his dream of launching a STEM nonprofit. Looking forward, Victor emphasizes the importance of finding volunteers—especially retired pilots, mechanics, teachers, and educators. He believes many people are simply waiting to be asked to contribute. He encourages others to replicate this aviation nonprofit model in their own communities by starting with educators, partnering with local airports, forming a nonprofit, and reaching out to media for visibility. For those inspired to launch a similar STEM and aviation program, Victor recommends building partnerships with school districts and intermediate units, seeking grants and donations, and always putting student engagement first. His program shows that aviation-based STEM education can uplift rural students and guide them toward rewarding careers.

https://youtu.be/wn9XOB_H-as Dave Molenda, Business and Sales Coach, Speaker, Best-selling Author, and Host of the Positive Polarity Podcast, is driven by a mission to help business owners grow intentionally by strengthening their teams and delivering exceptional customer experiences. We dive into Dave's journey and his ST+ICE=P Formula, which stands for Strengthen the Team + Improve the Customer Experience = Profit. Dave explains how focusing first on internal team engagement leads to outstanding customer experiences, which then fuels sustainable business growth. We also discuss lessons from his book Growing On Purpose, why most businesses grow by accident rather than design, how to spot hidden blind spots, and when letting go of the wrong customers is the right move for your company's health and future. --- Cover Your Blindspots with Dave Molenda Good day, dear listeners, Steve Preda here with the Management Blueprint podcast. And my guest here is Dave Molenda, who is a business and sales coach, speaker, best-selling author and the host of the wonderful Positive Polarity podcast. Dave, welcome to the show. Hi, Steve. how are you today? I'm doing pretty good because I'm meeting you, so it's already injecting some positivity in my day. Well good, I'm honored to be hanging out with you and thanks to you for being on our episode 260. I loved our question, “does your business have Covid?” That was a blast. So that was a great episode. So, for anyone listening, if you wonder if your business has Covid, I'm not going to tell you anything else other than head over and listen to Steve's answer to that question. It was awesome. Well, hopefully your business doesn't have Covid because it's a potentially lethal malady. Exactly. For sure. But it was, it really was a fun episode and we created a lot of snippets that we put on our website, so we definitely are excited about it. Awesome. But we're not going to talk about this because we are going to talk about your stuff and what you are doing because it is at least as good, if not better, and we are going to dive into your frameworks, your book and all your experiences, your “Why” and all that good stuff. So, are you ready? I'm ready. I got my seatbelt on. I'm all set here so we can go as fast or as slow as you want. Okay, so let's fast track into my favorite question. What is your personal “Why,” Dave? And how are you manifesting it in your practice and in your business? Yeah, for sure. I tell you, it's interesting, Steve. I love the name of your podcast, using a blueprint as a framework, because I can't believe how many people start and try to grow a business without a blueprint, without some kind of framework. So I love unpacking that with you on my show. But my “Why” is for all the people that are out there that are so good at what they do, they're good at their craft, they're good at their skill, whether it's building a house, whether it's selling something, whatever it is, making something, they're so good at that. But boy, they struggle when asking the question about, how do I grow this business? How do I create a team? How do I develop this team? How do I make this a long-lasting business? So my “Why” is really coming alongside of those people. Again, genuine people, really good at what they do, but they very often are struggling with what to do once they have gotten to the end so far. They've asked all their neighbors and friends, they've asked all their acquaintances to buy whatever they have. I don't know about you, but we get inundated with all the Girl Scout cookies from all your friends and family. But rarely do you get a knock on the door from somebody that you don't know. So my whole goal is to help businesses that are struggling, that want to grow.Share on X And so we come alongside them and help them again and create a blueprint different than yours. Our blueprint a lot of times involves the customer.

Marley shares her inspiring journey of curating and developing a children's art gallery in partnership with the Southwest Art Gallery and Science Center. At just 16 years old, Marley embarked on this project to provide art-related opportunities for kids in her community in North Dakota, where such resources were scarce. She discusses her passion for art as a self-taught artist, the need she identified in her community, and how her collaboration with the Southwest Art Gallery, which shares her mission, facilitated the creation of this new space. Marley reflects on her experience as a volunteer and the process of curating the first exhibit, highlighting the importance of fostering creativity among youth. Tune in to learn how one young artist is making a difference in her community through art! About Our Guest: My name is Marly Barnett, I am a 17-year-old Girl Scout from Troop 85112 and I live in the SW region of North Dakota. My Gold Award project, titled “SW Art Gallery and Science Center's Children's Gallery”, was to develop a children's art gallery for grades K-12 within the physical building of the SW Art Gallery and Science Center. I started this project at age 16 in April 2024, and as a result, I have advanced from a volunteer position to a paid role as Student Director of the SW Art Gallery and Science Center's Children's Gallery in October. Most recently I added Social Media Coordinator to my responsibilities. The reason I chose this as my Gold Award project was for two reasons, one to play a more active role in my community and two, as a self-taught artist, to make the arts more accessible for young artists in Region 8 of North Dakota.  

A Note from James:The Data Republican—it almost sounds like a superhero name. And in a way, she is. She's been single-handedly uncovering massive amounts of government waste and inefficiency. It's honestly unbelievable. And regardless of whether you're a Democrat, Republican, Independent, or anything else, I think we can all agree: there shouldn't be waste or fraud in the government.You've heard the old stories—like the military buying a pencil for $6 million. Those weren't urban legends. They were real, and you could track them through publicly available data. The problem now is that the data is harder to find and much harder to analyze. That's where Data Republican comes in. She's built tools that comb through this public data—yes, it's all technically accessible—and uses AI to flag things that are, if not outright fraudulent, at least seriously wasteful. This is about saving taxpayer dollars.She's made such an impact that even Elon Musk has used her tools to help identify government waste.You can find her on Twitter or at datarepublican.com, where she shares tools you can use to help spot waste yourself. But here's something even more remarkable: she's both deaf and mute. She's been deaf since early childhood and has never made a phone call in her life. She doesn't speak either.So, in this episode, we're also joined by The Data Interpreter—her translator—who helps communicate her responses. You'll hear both of them in action.I wanted to understand: what kind of waste has she uncovered? What does she see? What is she working on? What tools can we use from her site? How did she get started with this?We've edited out the pauses for translation to keep the conversation flowing, but you'll hear the full exchange between her and her interpreter. It was a fascinating and eye-opening conversation. Listen and learn.Episode Description:James Altucher sits down with the anonymous data investigator known as "DataRepublican" to explore government waste, corruption, and influence networks that operate in plain sight. From bizarre examples of foreign aid spending to powerful NGOs and their entanglement with corporations and Congress, this episode unpacks how taxpayer money circulates through a tangled web of lobbying, insider boards, and private interests. DataRepublican also shares her origin story, from analyzing charities like the Girl Scouts to building AI tools that track federal awards—and the personal fallout of being doxed for her work. If you've ever wondered where your tax dollars actually go, this is an eye-opening conversation.What You'll Learn:How private corporations use lobbying and advisory boards to steer government spendingWhy USAID and its partner NGOs may be central hubs for inefficiency and influenceThe real reason massive companies like Disney and Land O'Lakes receive taxpayer moneyHow DataRepublican's AI tools help trace connections between government officials and private interestsWhat you can do to research and report suspicious spending yourselfTimestamped Chapters:[00:00] Introduction: Uncovering Government Waste and Fraud[00:43] The US Global Leadership Council (USGLC) and Its Influence[01:54] Corporate Funding and Government Aid[03:14] The Complex Web of Lobbying and Influence[08:03] Egregious Examples of Misallocated Funds[10:30] The Role of NGOs and Former Government Officials[18:26] Personal Journey: From Charity Analysis to Government Oversight[20:57] Exploring Government Fraud and Waste[22:07] Charity and Government Spending Issues[22:36] Department of Defense and Misallocated Funds[23:20] Congressional Conflicts of Interest[24:38] Social Security and Identity Issues[25:58] Personal Journey and Overcoming Challenges[26:53] Naked Wines Sponsorship[29:38] Future Projects and Doxing Incident[32:18] Addressing Government Waste and Solutions[35:14] Final Thoughts and Call to ActionAdditional Resources:DataRepublican on TwitterUSGLC: U.S. Global Leadership CoalitionUSAID (U.S. Agency for International Development)Naked Wines - Use Code “James”To get 6 bottles of wine for $39.99, head to NakedWines.com/JAMES and use code JAMES for both the code AND PASSWORD.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The role of AI in accelerating the spread of misinformation and disinformation, making it faster and cheaper to create false content at scale. How search engines and AI search tools are being used by people trying to understand current events but can inadvertently reinforce misinformation. The strategic use of disinformation by political actors and how Project 2025 serves as a blueprint for manipulating public knowledge. How brands and organizations can become targets of narrative attacks based on misinformation, as exemplified by the Girl Scouts cookie controversy. Strategies brands can use to defend against misinformation attacks, including monitoring, internal audits, and AI simulations for response planning. Texas's new Bot Transparency legislation aimed at requiring disclosure of automated accounts that spread misinformation. The role of media platforms in amplifying sensationalized content and how this creates algorithmic narratives that shape public perception.

Sisters Danielle and Gabrielle Davenport are the cofounders of BEM, a bookstore and community space for Black food literature. After years of operating online and at pop-ups, they're getting ready to open a permanent location in Bed-Stuy. It's so fun to have Danielle and Gabrielle in the studio to nerd out on food literature, building a family business together, and more. Also on the show, it's the return of Three Things, where Aliza and Matt talk about what is exciting them in the world of restaurants, cookbooks, and the food world as a whole. On this episode: Cake Zine x Seeyousoon hosted a pop-up, Breadivore is doing really great bread and viennoiserie in South Brooklyn, and some thoughts on Girl Scout cookie season. Also: A review of Graydon Carter's memoir, When the Going Was Good, checking in at Wu's Wonton King, The Studio is a great new show on Apple TV+. Do you enjoy This Is TASTE?

Happy Tuesday to our new listeners and our true listeners. We’re back after a fun-filled weekend. Demaris & Rory were outside engaging in grown up degeneracy - Freddie Gibbs and well curated cocktails, and planning for their vacation next week. Meanwhile, Playboi Carti was busy proving them wrong about his superstar status after his highly-anticipated album dropped over the weekend, breaking streaming numbers. This leads into a conversation about SZA breaking another streaming record, and why artis from the past shouldn’t be compared to artists from now in regards to numbers. Dreamville’s final lineup dropped - we discuss who we would want to see on the bill, and which of us would even be allowed on the premises. After we, of all people, lecture Rolling Stone on journalistic integrity after a hiccup on their part, we discuss SXSW’s transition from just tech into music, and how it affected the underground music scene. Speaking of impact, the Girl Scouts of America are making a different kind of money while running a different kind of racket, and since no one will address it - we do. We also have a voicemail from a Rory Type Beat, that has us make some corrections about interracial dating, and black culture itself in America.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
