Podcast Jarka Szubrychta to opowieść o muzyce nie przez pryzmat nowych singli i płyt, ale z perspektywy życia koncertowego i festiwalowego. To rozmowy zza kulis, mniej skupiające się na samych artystach, a bardziej na tych, którzy poza zasięgiem naszego wzroku ciężko pracują na to, by wszystko dobrze brzmiało i wyglądało. Gośćmi tego odcinka są Anna Pruszyńska i Jacek Zmiczerewski, organizatorzy Olsztyn Green Festival. Opowiadają o tym, jak z lokalnego wydarzenia festiwal się rozrósł i 60 proc. festiwalowiczów to ludzie z całej Polski. Mówią też o tym, jak przy produkcji festiwalu współpracuje się z miastem i dlaczego stawiają na polską muzykę, a nie ściągają gwiazd z zagranicy.
Strap in, party people, because we're kicking this weekend into high gear with the Mean Green Event. As the riffs rain down, you won't want to miss the intrigue of our mystery MC and the chance to win big in our tattoo raffle. The event offers a great chance to get out and enjoy a fun and festive atmosphere. Switching tracks to the football field, we're not just tossing around pigskins; we're dissecting the latest NFL shake-ups with precision. Baker Mayfield's suiting up for Tampa Bay, but that's just the tip of the iceberg. Follow Seth and me as we navigate the implications of power moves like Josh Jacobs and Austin Eckler finding new homes, and we weigh in on the potential future stars poised to make their mark via the draft. Hold onto your helmets because the chatter about high-stakes contracts and strategic plays is as gripping as a fourth-quarter Hail Mary.Lastly, I'm stoked to take you on a personal journey through the tight-knit world of archery, sharing the warm embrace of this passionate community. From my nostalgic trip down memory lane rediscovering my father's old bows to the excitement of my new role on the Bushnell Park District Board, we lay out the blueprints for giving back and fostering local camaraderie.

John Beske and Marla Rose, Vegan Street's 25th Birthday! JOHN BESKE is a long-time veteran of graphic design, advertising and marketing with stints at a series of large and small advertising agencies including Leo Burnett and Della Femina McNamee. During this time, he produced print, television, promotional and retail advertising and design for dozens of companies including such famous brands as General Mills, Sony, Popsicle, Miller Brewing and, yes, even McDonald's. Eventually, he became disillusioned the advertising industry and left the agency scene to become an art director for brands he believed were doing good in the world. Shortly after, he co-founded a visionary marketing agency called Sustain that devoted all of its work to building the messaging of non-profits in the environmental and social justice sectors including campaigns for Sierra Club, Earthjustice and the Rainforest Action Network. During this same time, he teamed up with Marla to create the pioneering website Vegan Street in 1998, and open a Chicago chapter of EarthSave International in 1999. In 2005, he left Sustain to form John Beske Communications, which has been building the brands of vegan and ecologically responsible companies and organizations for more than a decade. John Beske Communications has now been folded into Vegan Street Media. MARLA ROSE is an award-nominated journalist, columnist, public speaker, recipe developer and author as well as event planner. Since leaving her job in humane education in 1998, Marla has dedicated her life to building vegan culture and community and today she writes most of the content for Vegan Street. In 1999, Marla was the founding chairperson of EarthSave Chicago, which hosted dozens of monthly potlucks, each featuring speakers, and produced five major day-long vegan conferences called The Conference for Conscious Living, which ultimately evolved into Chicago VeganMania, which was a popular free festival for ten years. In 2009, she and her partner John Beske were awarded Activists of the Year by Mercy for Animals and won Green America‘s People and Planet Award in 2015. For the past several years, she has been writing feature stories for magazines and has spoken at the Green Festival, Animal Rights Conference, Vegetarian Summerfest and many other conferences and festivals. She is a frequent writer for VegNews magazine, a writer of feature stories and author of several books.

Aujourd’hui, je CAUSE avec Najma Souroque, Cheffe de projet développement durable & production pour le festival We Love Green. Avec Najma, on plonge dans l’univers de la culture - plus résiliente que jamais face à cette crise du COVID - et on explore son rôle dans l’impact positif. Je ne vais rien vous cacher : je cours après Najma depuis un an pour qu’on puisse échanger ! Le positionnement de We Love Green, à la croisée entre le festival de musique et le colloque green, m’intéresse depuis longtemps : ils ont réussi l’exploit d’allier ces deux mondes, et de faire vivre un événement hors du temps, chaque année depuis 10 ans, en y mettant une bonne dose d’innovation, de réflexion, d’inspiration, de digitalisation et d’action, pour faire bouger le secteur des festivals, sensibiliser les artistes, tout en faisant vivre une expérience culturelle aux participants. Najma nous parle de l’aventure We Love Green depuis ses débuts, puisqu’elle est quasiment arrivée au lancement ! On échange sur le développement, la mission, les stratégies mises en place, et aussi sur l’importance de s’adapter à son environnement et au contexte, comme la crise du COVID qui leur a demandé de transformer au pied levé tout le festival en événement digital. La dimension durable et l’engagement RSE sont au cœur de toute la démarche, et sont donc présents à chaque instant. Une vraie source d’inspiration pour tous ceux qui aventure à impact.

The claim 'Green festival' is currently a must for event organisers. Some of them really do a great job and take this topic serious, like stages made out of recycled products, solar energy, ecological toilets and showers, a sustainable food concept and many more. On the other hand, some just create a single green aspect which can be communicated on the website or facebook account. Let's focus on the really good examples and let's have a look on what we as visitors can do to save the environment while raving. So here comes the green behavior guide for festivals with tips around sustainable festival visits that consider the environment.Find the whole article on tunesandwings.comIntro & Outro by Arbitraire
Du kender helt sikkert kæmpehittet ”Despacito” af Luis Fonsi og Daddy Yankee, der med tropiske beats, latineramerikanske vibes og fængende omkvæd, lyder af ren sommer. Sangen er en af de mest streamede nogensinde med over 5 milliarder afspilninger på Youtube på bare et år. Musikkens vibes trækker dog tråde til en knap så solrig tid i den latinamerikanske historie, hvor Columbus’ slave- og handelsskibe dominerede kontinentet. Blandt våben og handelsvarer medbragte europæerne nye musikinstrumenter som harmonikaen. Mødet mellem de lokale og europæernes instrumenter skulle senere vise sig at være utrolig betydningsfuldt for nutidens popmusik. De frigjorte slaver satte harmonika til deres rituelle sange og danse, og hermed opstod den første cumbia ifølge gamle folkesagn.Den latinamerikanske musikkultur kan betragtes, som at være en smeltedigel af mange musikgenrer og stilarter. Luis Fonsi og Daddy Yankee fra Puerto Rico førte denne tradition videre, da de skrev hittet ”Despacito”. Sangen indeholder nemlig både elementer fra house, hiphop, dancehall, cumbia og reggaeton. Dyk ned i nummeret og opdag de mange inspirationskilder.Dembow rytmer på verdensscenenJustin Bieber forelskede sig i ”Despacito” efter at have hørt det på en colombiansk natklub, og han tog som bekendt nummeret til sig senere. ”Despacito” er dog ikke det eneste nummer, hvor canadiske Justin Bieber har ladet sig inspirere af den latinamerikanske musikkultur. På hans egen single ”Sorry” kan man for eksempel høre ”dembow”-beatet fra reggaeton som et gennemgående element.Århusianske JunglelydPå den danske musikscene har vi det århusianske band Junglelyd, som har taget de latinamerikanske hofterytmer til sig. Junglelyd mestrer lyden af tropisk bas og cumbia, som gør det svært ikke at svaje med til musikken. Deres tropiske lyd har bragt dem helt til Ghana, hvor de har spillet på den ghanesiske Green Festival. Det ghanesiske medie Daily Graphic skrev rosende om det danske bands optræden:”The Junglelyd band, which included Ghanaian drummer Siisi France, mesmerised the audience with their multi-flavoured tunes which included rhythms from northern Ghana.”Vi anbefaler, at du lytter til nummeret ”Kambo”, og lader de latinamerikanske cumbia-rytmer fylde dine øregange:

Our 55th podcast is a report from the Green Festival held in Washington, D.C. earlier this month. We take an audio stroll through the exhibit hall and stop to chat with Fran from Compassion Over Killing, Tracy from Sweet Haven Bakery and Surab Dalal from the Vegetarian Society of DC. Then we head over to the virtual music stage for a song, Green Backyard, from Floored on Empty, who played the Green Festival. And there is a Science Fact about the tainted milk scandal in China that may be a cautionary tale for U.S. food industries.

This is a busy weekend in the San Francisco Bay Area: Conference on Race: Nov. 14-16 at the Marriott Convention Center in Oakland; the Green Festival in San Francisco; the 35th Anniversary of Dimensions Dance Theatre, Vukani Mawethu Choir's Gala dinner, and Black Rep's 44 Anniversary Gala and Community Award's program, tonight, 11/14. I'll speak to Dr. Mona Vaughn Scott and her son, Sean, monies raised will go to the Music in the Community program and breast cancer awareness. Well that was the plan last week and then 8 AM dawned and things changed. Robert King, author, activist and the only exonerated member of Angola 3 was joined in the studio by: Ron Chisom, People's Institute for Survival and Beyond, Mwalimu Johnson, Advocate, Capital Post-Conviction Center in New Orleans, and Jackie Sumell, Artist, The House that Herman Built. They updated us on the case of A3 member: Albert Woodfox, who had his final hearing Wednesday, Nov. 12. Visit angola3.org. This discussion was followed by an interview with artist, Amana Bremby Johnson, whose latest sculpture will be unveiled Tuesday, Nov. 18, at the Joseph P. Lee Recreation Center, 1395 Mendell Street, on Tuesday, November 18, 2008 from 3:00 to 4:30 p.m. Jill, a representative from the San Francisco Art Commission was also be in the studio. She spoke about the work, how Amana was chosen, and San Francisco county's commitment, even in the lean times, to supporting community art projects like these. Art is not optional— it is integral to community life and its sustainability. Visit www.sfartscommission.org/pubart Guests Faye Carol, Kito Gamble and Deborah Vaughn were sick this morning and needed to conserve their strength for their respective shows this weekend. We closed the show today with a wonderful conversation with Harriet and Alex Bagwell, and Attieno Davis about Vukani Mawethu Choir, their gala and their continued work to support grassroots CBO/NGOs in South Africa, Haiti, Oakland and elsewhere.

Neighborhood electric vehicles (NEVs) aren't for everyone, but they serve an important niche. With a short range, a top speed of 25 mph, and an affordable price, they're great for running gas-free errands, taking the kids to school, etc. One of the new NEVs on the block -- the Zenn NEV -- is featured in this podcast from the San Francisco Green Festival.
In order to continue sucking the "g" out of "Kingdom," (May the Kindom of Heaven be at hand!) Caroline is joined by John Nichols, fellow presenter at this weekend's Green Festival.

Washington correspondent for the Nation Magazine, Nichols' latest book,The Genius of Impeachment reminds us that the power of impeachment is in the hands of of the people rather than congress.
