The gloves come off in Part Two of Pop Songs We Wish We Wrote In This Millennium! In the high-stakes persuasion round, the debate heats up as SoSo Juv, HLS, and Donnie Klang enter the cross-examination arena—poking holes, throwing shade, and defending their song choices like their names are on the liner notes. Our guest, the ever-talented Alissa Musto, takes center stage as the final judge. After a barrage of passionate arguments and playful digs, she delivers the verdict—deciding once and for all who ends up in third place, and who claims the crown as this episode's ultimate pop visionary. But before we wrap, Alissa gives her Five Cents on the topic, revealing the songs she wishes she wrote and why. The hosts then review The People's Poll and the always-unpredictable Artificial Intelligence Poll to see how their picks stacked up with the fans and the bots. It's a lyrical battle, a strategic showdown, and a celebration of pop genius. Who will come out on top? And who gets dragged for that “one questionable pick”? Who's Right, Who's Wrong YOU DECIDE!

What pop songs from the 2000s to now are so iconic, we wish we had our names in the songwriting credits? In this chart-topping edition of The My Five Cents Podcast, SoSo Juv, HLS, and Making The Band winner Donnie Klang are joined by multitalented artist, Harvard grad, and GRAMMY voting member Alissa Musto to break down the pop anthems that defined a generation—and the ones we're still jealous of. But the convo goes deeper than just catchy hooks. The crew debates the shifting value of music videos in the digital era—do you pour your budget into one full-length music video, or stretch it across 10 high-impact short-form clips for more bang for your buck? Alissa shares insight from the frontlines of today's music business, blending industry savvy with firsthand experience. Plus, HLS and the hosts reflect on how R&B has evolved from soulful serenades and dramatic “air-grab” ballads to the new-age "thug lover" era—and why some of that magic might be missing. This one's for the music lovers, content creators, and anyone who's ever shouted, “I should've written that!”

The ego showdown continues in Part 2 of The My Five Cents Podcast episode, "Signs Your Ego Is Sabotaging You"—and this is where things get real. Hosts SoSo Juv, HLS, and Logical Genius return alongside transformational healer and spiritual teacher Sarah Spark Malone for the persuasion portion of the show, where cross-examinations fly and egos get thoroughly examined. In true My Five Cents fashion, each host defends their list while Sarah and the crew poke holes in each other's arguments. Who's being self-aware—and who's just being self-righteous? As the debates heat up, Sarah listens closely before deciding who takes third place and who earns the title of this week's ego-free victor. Sarah also shares her own 5 Cents on the topic—bringing powerful insights from her experience as a clinical hypnotherapist and spiritual guide. Finally, the episode wraps up with a review of the People's Poll and the AI-generated list, proving once again that even machines can sniff out ego sabotage.

In episode 821 of the QAV Podcast, Cameron and Tony kick things off with tales of gas outages and cold showers before diving into the markets. They review the portfolio performance, explain the HLS sell-off, and unpack the latest antics of Donald Trump's tariff diplomacy. Stocks under the spotlight include VVA (Viva Leisure) with their eyebrow-raising stake in Gorilla X Labs, NRW's legal wrangle over the Whyalla port, and a deep-dive pulled pork on ANZ. The ANZ segment touches everything from executive turnover, the bloated One Platform app, substance abuse allegations, and the Suncorp acquisition, to Cameron's prediction that the whole thing will be scrapped in favour of an AI-driven rebuild. Sprinkle in some talk about robot security Roombas, the legacy of Damien Broderick, Sparks' new album, and Japanese punk, and you've got another vintage QAV session.

Is your ego quietly running the show—and ruining your progress? This week on The My Five Cents Podcast, hosts SoSo Juv, HLS, and Logical Genius dive deep into the subtle (and not-so-subtle) ways your ego might be holding you back, and what you can do to stop the sabotage. Joining the conversation is the insightful and inspiring Sarah Spark Malone—a nationally recognized clinical hypnotherapist, transformational healer, and spiritual teacher known for her work on TLC's 90 Day: The Last Resort, as well as her bestselling book Affirmations for a Peaceful Life and her podcast Ignite the Spark Within. With over a decade of experience helping people break free of subconscious patterns and heal emotional wounds, Sarah helps unpack how the ego disguises itself as protection while actually blocking growth, love, and success. As always, the hosts bring their top five takes on the topic—and with Sarah as the judge, only one can be crowned this week's ego-aware champion. Follow Sarah on Instagram @sarah_sparkmalone

Exotic annual grasses, or EAGs, are invasive species. They outcompete native grasses. They are extremely flammable. And they are expanding into higher elevations. Targeted sheep grazing is one way to combat these invasive grasses, manage fire risk, and help restore native sagebrush in western states.The EROS team releases weekly EAG maps during the peak green-up in late April to early June, along with annual phenology maps to show the seasonal timing of the green-up. Dr. Kelly Hopping at Boise State University is using these maps to see whether targeted sheep grazing can help manage EAGs. The maps help researchers work with sheep producers to know when is the best time to move the sheep into those areas so their grazing can do the most good. The sheep then, as a part of the team solving the problem of invasive grasses, get to eat in the field when they might not otherwise have grazing available.

From Minority Report to Her, Hollywood has a way of turning fiction into uncanny reality. In this mind-bending episode of My Five Cents, SoSo Juv, HLS, and Logical Genius are joined by futurist, hacker-turned-farmer, and former broadcaster Jesse Hirsch to unpack how movies have eerily predicted the world we're living in now. Jesse brings his unique lens—sharpened by decades of exploring tech, society, and the strange dance between innovation and control—to explore how science fiction has forecasted surveillance, artificial intelligence, virtual relationships, and even the collapse of societal norms. Is Hollywood psychic, or are we just living in someone else's screenplay? What role do these films play in shaping the very future they claim to predict? And how does a life spent farming tie back to humanity's most radical dreams? Tune in as we blend nostalgia, critical thinking, and a dash of dystopia—because sometimes, the truth is stranger (and better produced) than fiction.

Lo streaming, che meraviglia! È quella cosa che tutti amiamo e che ci fa impazzire. Ma come funziona davvero? Come fa un film ad apparire sullo schermo senza che lo dobbiamo scaricare completamente?

Which movies got it weirdly right? Which ones were way off? And which host picked the most prophetic flicks? With Jesse's expansive knowledge, quick wit, and love of improvisation, the conversation flows from AI to surveillance to societal shifts—all through the lens of film.

Many thanks to SRAA contributor, Dan Greenall, who shares the following recording and notes:Broadcaster: Maritime radio HLS Seoul KoreaDate of recording: October 31, 1998Frequency: 8.725 MHzReception location: Coe Hill, Ontario, CanadaReceiver and antenna: Panasonic RF-3100 and longwire antennaMode: Single Side BandNotes: Maritime radiotelephone station HLS in Seoul, Korea continued to operate in the late 1990's on shortwave. Instead of a repeating voice mirror, this station played Beethoven's "Ode to Joy" over and over so that the receiving station could tune them in. This recording is from October 31, 1998 at Coe Hill, Ontario, Canada, and the frequency they were using was 8725 kHz upper sideband. My receiver was a Panasonic RF-3100 hooked up to a long wire antenna.The station was identified by Richard "RD" Baker, editor of Communications Confidential, in the January 1999 issue of Popular Communications magazine. In his Reader Mailbag section, he wrote:"Dan Greenall in Ontario, Canada, has been hearing a new (at least to folks in North America) maritime marker on 8725.0 USB: Beethoven's 9th Symphony "Ode to Joy" is repeated. In trying to track this marker down, we sent the call out over the WUN Club's listserver. Costas Krallis in Greece, Fabrizio Magrone in Italy. Alex Wellner and Robin Harwood. both in Australia. all became involved. They soon began logging the marker on other maritime frequencies. Eventually, it was noted on 6513, 8725, 8797, 13161, and 17341. Only one station has those frequencies in common: HLS, Seoul Radio. South Korea. The marker was completely IDed within 32 hours!"

Show Notes: Jacinda Townsend shares her journey of living in 10 different states and two foreign countries, having four careers, including being an elected official, having a couple of kids, and doing various weird things.  Working in Law, Journalism, and Fiction When Jacinda graduated at 20, she went to law school, which was part of a straight trajectory she had imagined since childhood, and while she initially believed she would go into politics and return to Kentucky, she realized she did not want to pursue a career in law. After finishing her degree, she worked as a news commentator for the Christian Science Monitor network, which led to her being hired as a professional journalist to cover international and national politics. Jacinda was passionate about the news and TV news. Writing for the sound byte was a challenge for her, but she loved it because it allowed her to express herself politically and learn a lot about the English language. She decided she wanted to pursue writing seriously and is now a novelist. She also teaches at Brown University in the MFA program. Throughout her career, Jacinda explains, it has been random events and circumstances that led her to each position.  Motivated by Anger and Moving into Politics Jacinda talks about her career in politics and how it transpired fueled by her anger at issues she could not ignore. She shares her experiences as a sitting school board member in Bloomington, Indiana. She served in a progressive town with a lot of socio-economic segregation and disciplinary disparities by race and ethnicity which she could not ignore. Jacinda ran for re-election and was elected again, and this time, it was a landslide.  She moved to Michigan and was asked to run for the school board there. Jacinda talks about the issues tackled, changes made, and how integration has changed. Jacinda believes that the ideal of integration is not happening. She explains that segregation has increased with 80 percent of white kids going to a school where the percentage of white children is above 75 percent, and minority children and still 90 percent more likely to be in a minority school. She mentions that peak integration happened in 1987 and goes on to explain the driving factors behind the segregation.  Working as a Writer The conversation turns to her writing career, which includes the award-winning novel Mother Country and the forthcoming novel Trigger Warning. Jacinda talks about her routine, which includes a 500-word word count daily.  She also shares a story of working with a student who felt unsure about her writing, and how she copes with the uncertainty of working in the arts. She also shares her approach to keeping up with her characters, and uses random texts to remember what was going through the character's head and keeps up with them. This helps her keep up with the story and remember the characters' reactions to things. When writing a novel, Jacinda immerses herself in the character's world, trying to experience it through their eyes. She doesn't take breaks during the writing process, as she believes that the imagination begets the imagination, and when living with her characters every day, it becomes like a muscle memory. When she returns to the story, she can remember every bit of why she did something, making her work more enjoyable and fulfilling. Living in Foreign Countries Jacinda was a Fulbright student in Cote d'Ivoire, and she has lived in two foreign countries, including Mali and Morocco. While in Mali, she encountered modern-day slavery. She also went to Morocco and visited Mauritania, where 20% of the population is enslaved. She explains that Mauritania is a remote country where it is like stepping back 500 years. It is difficult to escape slavery, as employment is caste-based, so if they escape slavery, there is no work. She met an escaped slave and her family, who gave birth to her last of eight children while escaping slavery. Jacinda shares that holding this baby was a profound moment in her life, and it was this experience that led to her novel, Mother Country. Jacinda explains that the reason no-one knows about the slavery issues in Mauritania is because it is not often mentioned in the news. The media is state-run, and the slavery system is brutally enforced. It is also difficult to get to due to its remoteness so there are very few Western visitors. People there often believe they should be slaves, that it is divinely ordained.   Influential Classes and Professors at Harvard Jacinda mentions Martin Kilson, a brilliant political scholar. She was initially shy in his class, but after her campus activism went viral, he hugged her and said, "You're brilliant." This was a moment that made her feel like she belonged there for the first time. Jacinda appreciates the gift of Martin Kilson's support and tries to make her students feel seen when they are quiet and nervous. She believes that making people feel heard is important and that she will never forget the gift of his presence. Jacinda Townsend shares her campus activism story. At the time she had no idea of the impact this would have. One night, the Boston Police came to her room. She was alone, but before she knew it, seven girls showed up who had come to support her. This experience taught her to speak on television and that even in difficult times, it's important to be there for others, and that others will be there for you, if you share a common belief.  Timestamps: 01:59: Early Career and Education  07:51: Public Office and School Board Experience  22:11: Writing Career and Novels  30:22: Experiences in Foreign Countries  36:39: Personal Reflections and Life Philosophy 40:15: Campus Activism and Media Experience  48:10: Impact of Media and Public Perception  48:27: Final Thoughts and Future Plans  Links: Website:   https://jacindatownsend.com/about-me/ Featured Non-profit "Hi, I'm Khedrub, Class of 1992.

Show Notes: Title: Media Entrepreneur and Filmmaker   Show notes: Natalia Tsarkova, a transfer student from Latvia, was the first student from the former Soviet bloc to apply to an American college. She was thrown into a completely different world and roles, but knew she wanted to create more contexts for others to transform their lives like she didher life. Growing up in Latvia, she watched pirated MTV videos and credits seeing Billy Jean for the first time for inspiring her to work in the media space. In 1993, she met a professor at the MIT Media Lab, who recognized her mixed background of mathematics, social studies, and filmmaking. She fell into the master's program at the MIT Media Lab, where she was educated on the new way of thinking about media and how to create more meaningful experiences through on-demand interactive media platforms.   Working in Video on Demand and Interactive Experiences Natalia was eager to move to New York City and found a job with a startup in Soho. She was driven to explore the world of startups and entrepreneurs, which she didn't know much about before. She created projects Barry Diller, Sony Music and was hired by the Beatles estate to create the first Beatles digital experience. She had the luxury of diving deep into the Beatles archives and creating unique digital content. Natalia worked with IMG, fashion, and sports, and was tasked with explaining the digital transformation to CEOs in management, helping them imagine new types of media experiences that were digital and on demand. Her journey from MIT to New York City was filled with excitement, partying, and meeting people from all walks of life. She was able to stay afloat as a consultant, working on projects that fascinated her and helped shape the future of digital media.  The Development of Transmedia  In 2001, Natalia met her husband, a French television music television producer, who was looking for a digital media expert. In 2003, they set up the first European video on demand platform, called Transmedia.  Natalia convinced television producers that linear television was dead and that video on demand was the future. They built a business by packaging content from France television and other European producers and selling it to telcos in Belgium, Switzerland, and even France. With their large library of live musical content, they launched a video on demand platform called iConcerts, similar to Netflix but with only live music. This platform evolved into a hybrid high-definition TV/Video on Demand channel, licensed by operators in 128 countries between 2007 and 2010. The platform was successful, with collaborations with CCTV, an office in Singapore, Paris and Tokyo and partnerships with Senegalese musicians and Africa. Natalia explains how she became disillusioned a few years before it was sold.     Making a TV Documentary  Ever since Harvard, Natalia always did some form of documentary filmmaking. During summers, she rented a house in France and started filming the Gypsy Kings, a group that were popular in the 90s. Natalia showed the excerpts to a head of a European arts channel called Arte, who suggested she submit a the proposal for a full length film. The film was released in 2016 and received triple primetime ratings on the channel, and the Gypsy Kings loved it. This experience of original content storytelling and the idea of tribes, such as the Gypsy tribe, inspired her. She moved on to create a project called Tribo, designed to be a storytelling platform for groups to share their stories. Tribo has become more about digital storytelling and dynamic storytelling.  The Evolution of the Tribo Platform  Natalia discusses the concept of Tribo as a media platform for storytelling. Tribo was initially designed as an extension of live music festivals, but after two years of testing, it has been found to be particularly effective in private communities during COVID-19. Tribo aims to create a platform where stories that matter over time are told, such as collective storytelling. This can involve recording portraits of different people who are part of the organization, allowing everyone to post photos and videos during an event, and giving CEOs a space to motivate everyone. Natalia emphasizes the importance of engagement from employees, as most companies struggle with sharing their stories due to busy work and reluctance to share. By providing equal opportunities for sharing and having leaders interviewing people, Tribo can capture the heritage and legacy of the community.  Influential Harvard Professors and Courses Natalia was particularly fond of the VES department, where she watched two movies a day, and had a close friendship with Robert Gardner, Director of the Film Study Center and Svetlana Boym, an expert on Soviet art and modern art. She mentions Liah Greenfield, her thesis advisor. She also worked for the Harvard Negotiation Project, created by Roger Fisher, a professor at HLS known as the ultimate expert on negotiation.. Her first job at Harvard was working at the Russian research center, where she was hired by Marshall Goldman, a big Soviet studies professor.   Timestamps: 05:12 How a Latvian student applied to Harvard despite obstacles 11:30 Moving to NYC, starting a business, and networking 14:00 Digital media, video on demand, and startup experience 21:03 Entrepreneurship, media, and filmmaking 24:15 Filmmaking, loss, and entrepreneurship 31:27 Using tech for collective storytelling in organizations 41:17 Grief, trauma, and resilience after loss 44:42 Filmmaking, Harvard experiences, and connections Links: LinkedIn:  https://www.linkedin.com/in/natalia-tsarkova  Website: Tribo.Live Kings of the World: https://vimeo.com/197952008/d444b20c11 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nataliatsar/

The Quantum Being is for anyone looking for inspiration, direction, and comprehension to jump-start their life to move forward, embrace freedom and create their magickal life.By reading this book, you will embark on a journey to get you in touch with your superpower within.I have had an awareness growing up about myself and my surrounding. This awareness led me to ask questions. Answers came in the form of people, experiences, tests, and sometimes trial and error. Living my life for half a century in this quantum body has gifted me with the wisdom to navigate life with a strategy that is beneficial for the natural progression of life and its universal laws. Hence this book is the catharsis of my soul.The rhythm of my life started at a faster pace when I came to the United States (US) in 1992 at an early age, soon after an arranged marriage. I was born and raised as an orthodox Muslim in Karachi, Pakistan. Upon my arrival in Los Angeles, CA, I couldn't speak English, nor did I have any financial means. Being new to a country like the United States felt like being on a new planet to me, and complicated by the fact that I accompanied a man I barely knew.Life took a path that has been full of hard lessons, emotionally challenging experiences, roadblocks, and cultural and language barriers.How did I come this far despite my conservative upbringing?How did I break through all the cultural, social, and religious barriers?How did I stay strong through the storms and come all this way far enough to touch the star? To live in a world where science fiction is becoming a reality.How did I navigate my life to draw happiness and independence?This book shares wisdom via storytelling to help you come out of trenches no matter how deep the hole is.This book will enhance your understanding of the Quantum humans we are and how living by the principle of Quantum Physics, everyone can choose a life path and career path that perfectly aligns with their goals and personality.This book bridges science and spirituality and helps you see the truth for yourself by showing you the magnificent interconnectedness we have all around us and within us guiding our pathway to our true self, home, and final destiny.Shehnaz is an accomplished Aerospace Engineer, an Author, a Health and Transformational Coach, an Energy Healer, and the proud Mother.Shehnaz was born and raised as an orthodox Muslim in Karachi, Pakistan. From day one, she was asked to fit inside a box that didn't align with her true calling. She grew up feeling trapped within a patriarchal, cultural mindset where women are groomed, expected to be wives and homemakers, and not encouraged to go to school. Being a bright and headstrong young girl, she pushed over one barrier after another in her determination to complete her high school education and go on to college. Shehnaz graduated high school as the valedictorian and continued engineering at the University of Karachi despite persistent cultural and familial abuse and degradation as a female.Upon her arrival in the United States, she faced a new set of challenges, including financial, cultural, and language barriers—as she tried to acculturate to her new life. Shehnaz reawakened her trailblazer instincts and chose the path of transformation. Therefore, as a transformational coach, she uses the bio-individuality philosophy, meaning everyone is unique.Shehnaz has worked as a rocket scientist for both Boeing and NASA. Her most recent work at NASA includes the Artemis Project. She and her cutting-edge team of aerospace engineers have developed requirements for the unprecedented Human Landing System, also known as HLS. When ready to launch, this system will finally bridge mankind with a long-term presence on the Moon and ultimately on Mars."The Quantum Being" by Shehnaz Soni is part memoir and part guide for humanity, bridging science and spirituality to help the reader realize the truth of their magnificence as human beings on the journey to manifest their own miracles. Shehnaz believes that we all have the power to live an incredible life as quantum beings. She teaches Quantum Physics implementation in daily life to heal and reprogram un-serving beliefs and patterns.As we undertake the daunting task of transformation, we embark on the journey that will ultimately become habitual, automatic, and effortless – akin to a rocket leaving the Earth. At first, the initial launch requires enormous power, then less and less as it leaves the Earth's gravitational field. Finally, the rocket moves through space under its own momentum breaking all the barriers, beyond imagination to traverse new worlds.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/earth-ancients--2790919/support.
