Hope with God... with Andrew and Wendy Palau

On either coast of the United States, you can see grand monuments to financial empires. The spectacular Biltmore Estate is in North Carolina. Hearst Castle is in northern California on 127 acres of gardens. These two places were built by wealthy, powerful men. But nobody resides in them anymore. They are show places for tourists to visit. They're not really even homes. You don't need a mansion to create a home. What counts is not elaborate luxury, but the love and peace at its heart. An old saying goes, “The family that prays together stays together.” There is a lot of truth in that. If we parents love each other and our children, if we teach them about God and His love for them, if we lead them with scriptural principles, we will create a place where the family can flourish. We will have a home. This is Andrew Palau. "Direct your children onto the right path,  and when they are older, they will not leave it."

Steven talks about a power and internet outtage that almost kept our dear listeners from hearing his sweet, sweet voice. We end up chatting about house batteries, electric vehicles, generators, and how power flows through a power grid. Steven was also able to con his wife into playing Arcs, and she had some valid opinions. Ben says, "There are no good hands in Arcs" and he's not wrong. Ben's mom visited him for a few days (Hi Martha!) and he played tourist. They watched The Goonies in the theater, visited Hearst Castle and watched Twister. Devon was Devon, this whole time.    Future or Now I can pay ten bucks to see Kevin Costner drink his own urine? Where do I sign up?: Scientists built real-life "stillsuit" to recycle astronaut urine on space walks. We talk about what astronauts do now on space walks, and to what extent this "stillsuit" will be helpful. Steven goes on a tangent about smells and coffee and drinking filtered urine.  https://arstechnica.com/science/2024/07/scientists-built-real-life-stillsuit-to-recycle-astronaut-urine-on-space-walks/  Devon's TV corner: Devon gives us a mini-review on the 4th season of The Boys. He talks about the "controversy" of the show thinly veiled attacked on the right, and how Vought = Fox News. It's silly that people didn't realize that The Boys has always been satire. Devon also watched the second season of Star Trek: Prodigy and he and Ben have thoughtful discussions about characters that Steven doesn't know. They focus on Chakotay and Robert Beltran. Steven tags onto Devon's tv reviews to give a micro-review on The Acolyte which we'll dive into more on a future episode.    Book Club Next Week: "Clap Back" by Nalo Hopkinson  https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B098QNLW6D  This Week: "Where Oaken Hearts Do Gather" by Sarah Pinsker https://www.uncannymagazine.com/article/where-oaken-hearts-do-gather/  We have quite the discussion this week, mostly stemming from the format of this story. Ben had a strong reaction to the format (it disagrees with him). Steven enjoyed the mystery and parallel stories being told. Devon chimes in about folk song covers and references Metallica and Whiskey in the Jar and Mary of the Wild Moor by The Louvin Brothers.

This episode of Wine 30 with Andrew and Lindsay kicks off with a tasting session of a tangy 2022 Andis Sauvignon Blanc from the Sierra Foothills. We dissect its tart, citrusy notes and compare them to the more familiar New Zealand Sauvignon Blancs, while also suggesting delicious food pairings like lemongrass chicken and pasta with lemon garlic sauce. Lindsay opens up about her sensitivity to MSG in Chinese food, shedding light on how it shapes her dining experiences. Plus, get her candid thoughts on the Netflix show "Perfect Match" and its strategic release scheme.From savoring wine to tackling serious social issues, we explore the complexities of immigration in the U.S., questioning why stringent laws are necessary. This naturally flows into a discussion of cultural icons like Picasso and Fitzgerald, whose contributions defy conventional boundaries, and how gatherings at places like Hearst Castle foster artistic and cultural exchanges. We ponder the importance of allowing free movement of people and ideas, drawing parallels between historical figures and today's societal trends.In our final segment, we turn the spotlight on celebrity culture and current events. We scrutinize Justin Timberlake's career, reflecting on how fame and power can impact one's character, especially in light of the #MeToo movement. We also highlight Gavin Newsom's latest consumer protection legislation aimed at banning hidden fees, celebrating this move toward greater transparency. Wrapping up, we embark on a spirited debate about Kendrick Lamar's audacious performance antics and our personal preferences between him and Drake, reminiscing about Drake's early days on "Degrassi" and comparing their respective influences in the music world. Join us for a lively and thought-provoking episode that blends wine reviews with rich social commentary. **Edit:: Jeff Bezos is with Lauren Sanchez NOT Lauren Zima.

I don't care about leaving money on the table. I don't care about “maximising” my revenue” or getting the “most” out of every day. Here's what I do care about: Spend Tuesday mornings at a 10am Pilates class. Stuffing around making labels for my new spice racks just because. Googling cool new hair-dos for my little girl. Sitting on the floor with her at 2pm on a Friday, playing hairdressers.I care about travel. I care so much about travel. I care about renting a month-long Airbnb in Norway just because. And getting a van, and traveling around the English countryside stopping at every cute pub along the way. I care about driving down the California coast. Showing my kids Hearst Castle. Visiting Old Town Ibiza, and sipping Sangria at 10pm on a hot August evening. I care about feeling free – really, truly free. Waking up on a Monday and relishing the week ahead. Spending the morning sitting in a cafe, writing for three hours over two half-strength cappuccinos. And never again sitting in  an air-conditioned cubicle with no natural sunlight, taking orders from a girl called Samantha and waiting for Friday. I care about life. And living it, unconventionally and messily.And having fun. And being the poster girl for living free. And above all? After building a $2.5m business to the ground in the name of wild alignment, NOT sacrificing all of that at the altar of some arbitrary revenue goal that won't even give me more of what I want. That's why I have the business I (now) do. And the values I (now) have. And it's why I'm now so passionate about sharing with others my ethos for building a simple, highly profitable one-person + a tiny team style business to the Lifestyle Business Sweet Spot ®In this week's podcast, I'll be sharing with you the Seven Commandments of Building a Business to the Lifestyle Business Sweet Spot.Want more?

 On this episode of the California Now Podcast, host Soterios Johnson heads to San Luis Obispo County to secure top-tier suggestions from three in-the-know locals.  First, Johnson chats with Jason Haas, partner and general manager of Tablas Creek Vineyard in Paso Robles. Haas describes how SLO's unique landscape makes it perfectly suited for producing an array of award-winning wines. “The conditions here are amazing and we have the chance to make something tremendous really every year,” Haas says. The second-generation vintner also gives Johnson a crash course on Tablas Creek's holistic winemaking philosophy before getting into personal recs around Paso Robles.  Next up, Johnson is joined by Jim Allen, director of marketing and communications at Hearst Castle in San Simeon. Allen discusses how the lavish estate came to be, highlighting the fascinating characters behind its inception. “Julia Morgan was a California native, a Bay Area architect. Mr. Hearst was also born in San Francisco, so [Hearst Castle] is a very California-created entity,” Allen notes. He goes on to discuss the incredible attention to detail and artistry that went into building the castle. “The indoor pool has 2 million hand-cut glass tiles from Venice, Italy. It took five years just to do this one swimming pool.” Allen also covers the state park's most popular tours, its celebrity-studded past, and offers insider tips for visitors.  Lastly, Johnson talks to multi-instrumentalist Dan Curcio of the San Luis Obispo-based band Moonshiner Collective. A longtime local, Curcio explains how the area's positive vibe continues to shape his sound. “I've been so inspired by the Central Coast, by California, just the lifestyle here and all the influences that we have around here, both musically and just in the natural surroundings,” he shares. Curcio also breaks out his guitar for a live performance of two originals, “Autumness” and “Good Company.” The local musician then shares some of his favorite stops in Cayucos, Avila Beach, Pismo Beach, and the city of San Luis Obispo

Julia Morgan was a lifelong trailblazer. She was the first woman admitted to study architecture at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris and the first licensed to practice architecture in California. Born in San Francisco and trained in Paris, she developed a distinctive aesthetic that now defines certain regions of California. But only in the last 20 years has her contribution to architecture been fully recognized and celebrated. In 2014, the American Institute of Architects posthumously awarded her its Gold Medal; she is the first female recipient. Victoria Kastner has spent years compiling photographs, interviews, letters, drawings, and diaries—including material never published before—to create a comprehensive portrait of this amazing woman. Of Julia Morgan's remarkable 700 creations, from hotels to churches to private homes, the most iconic is Hearst Castle. She spent 30 years constructing this opulent estate on the California coast for the newspaper magnate William Randolph Hearst, forging a lifelong friendship and creative partnership with him. Together they built a spectacular and perhaps unequalled residence that once hosted the biggest stars of Hollywood's golden age, and that now welcomes hundreds of thousands of visitors each year.

Julia Morgan wasn't just one of the most renowned architects of the 20th century, she was a true pioneer of her profession. She was the first woman to be admitted to the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, which was the most important architecture school of its era, as well as the first woman in California to earn an architecture license and eventually the first woman to win the American Institute of Architects' highest honor. Then there's her buildings. She's best known for Hearst Castle, but over her long career she designed hundreds of impressive structures – the Berkeley City Club, Oakland's YWCA, the Asilomar Conference Center, El Campanil at Mills College, and the list goes on and on. As a woman, Morgan didn't always get the recognition she deserved, but in more recent decades, she's been the subject of numerous books, documentaries, and museum exhibits. However, a new book takes a different approach by imagining Julia's early years, as a young woman growing up in Victorian era East Bay. In “Drawing Outside the Lines,” Susan J. Austin tells the story of the architect's formative time at Oakland High School and UC Berkeley during the 1880s and 90s. The book is a work of historical fiction, but Austin spent years on research in order to make the story as realistic as possible. In this episode, Susan J. Austin discusses her favorite Julia Morgan buildings, why she thinks Julia Morgan's story will be relevant for young readers, and some of the famous figures, such as Gertrude Stein and Frank Norris, who make cameo appearances in “Drawing Outside the Lines.” To see photos related to this episode: https://eastbayyesterday.com/episodes/what-made-julia-morgan-different/ East Bay Yesterday can't survive without your support.

His obsession with how the media programs and shapes our reality led him down the path of understanding media manipulation, realizing in 2016 that podcasting was escaping the standard media model. Sky has made it his mission to continue allowing podcasts to stay outside the influence of advertising and keep their content sincere. His podcast Sky King's Mental Playground focuses on the tension between centralized and decentralized systems, specifically on propaganda, financial systems, and political systems. You can listen at skmp.supercast.com or follow Sky on Twitter @consumersky or Instagtram @iamaskyking. Propaganda, Art, Health, Regenerative Systems, Great Food, Economic Incentives, and building companies in an increasingly digital world. All of these concepts live in the balance of centralized and decentralized systems. I believe that if we are not careful, we will watch the pendulum swing away from self-governance, and in that swing, we have the opportunity to lose the future of humanity to the dark side. These are the concepts that own my mind space. This podcast is an opportunity to play with these ideas with world leaders, entrepreneurs, my homies, and people that I find generally exciting or entertaining. It is called a playground for a reason. This podcast will be as fun as it is informative; we are tackling society's most pervasive issues, but in a way that we are undoubtedly going to fuck up, scribble on, and get hurt.

Here are some things he can help you better understand: trademark, business formation & securities, contracts, Halloween party planning, how to do a standing backflip, and the proper pronunciation of the word “GIF.” When Sam isn't providing legal advice and empowering his clients, he's either outdoors exercising or working on local policy and social justice initiatives, often through his volunteer positions with Business For Good San Diego. Sam also serves on several Boards of Directors, including A Reason to Survive (ARTS), Space4Art, and The Foundation at Hearst Castle."We had a great conversation about Sam's journey through the field of law, his work with Invisible Children and how it was transformative for him, and how and why he, and Better, approach the practice of law from a different perspective.If you're in an industry that you feel needs to be shaken up a little bit, I think you'll definitely get some useful ideas from our conversation.

It's New Year's Eve and that means it's time for a special episode of Fated Mates! Also, Ted Lasso Season 2 is complete and that means it's time for another Roy Kent episode, so we're saying, “Why not both?” Both it is! Come for this two-hour deep dive on former AFC Richmond team captain and current AFC Richmond coach, Roy Kent and his bangin' girl, Keeley Jones, Independent Woman…stay for the Bantr about Isaac, Rebecca, Ted and more. We're talking about the whole season (except for that one episode we're going to pretend doesn't exist). Spoilers abound, so if you haven't watched, do that first!Happy happy new year, Magnificent Firebirds. You were the best thing about 2021 for us. Thank you, as always, for listening! If you are up for leaving a rating or review for the podcast on your podcasting app, we would be very grateful! We are starting as we mean to go on in 2022 — our first read-along of the year will be Lisa Valdez's Passion, an erotic historical published in 2005 that is W-I-L-D. There is a lot of biblical stuff at the world's fair. Also some truly bananas stuff that…sticks with you. We haven't read it in a while, so we're telling you to be careful because…honestly, it's just good sense with this one. Get it at Amazon, Apple, Kobo, or B&N.Show NotesIn January of 2021, sex columnist Sophia Benoit was our guest, and we talked about Ted Lasso. In June of 2021, we aired our first Roy Kent episode. Doc Martens have never been gone, but they are definitely back.Cheers was one of the all great sitcoms, which aired from 1982-1993. Jen's Christmas gift from Mr. ReadsRomance was the BusyBox; Sarah's Christmas present from her in-laws came from Spare Time Used Books in Paso Robles, California.Hearst Castle is pretty wild, and not just because it has literal wild zebras roaming around on its grounds.You, too, can make a donation to Flatbush Cats. To clarify, Jen watched The Bear Episode the first time around, but skipped in on this rewatch. The “Roy is sorry for not understanding keely” playlist on apple music and also on Spotify. Apple TV+ is available nearly everywhere people watch video. An Apple device is not required. You can binge both seasons with a seven day free trial.
