Šī saruna ir par to, ko cilvēks var darīt savā labā, ja viņam ir raksturīgi atkal un atkal iestrēgt vienos un tajos pašos ieradumos, no kuriem jau sen grib tikt laukā. Piemēram, smēķēšanā, pārlieku saldumu ēšanā, nesavaldībā vai kliegšanā uz tuviniekiem, kārtējā pārslodzē darbā.Marija Ābeltiņa skaidroja trīs sistēmas, kurās mēs funkcionējam: izdzīvošanu, dzīšanos pēc mērķiem un nomierināšanos, par kuru visbiežāk aizmirstam. Tieši trešās sistēmas neizpratne noved pie pārslodzes un ieradumiem, kas no tās izriet.Viņa parādīja, kāpēc gribasspēks vien nepalīdz un kā jaunu rīcību nostiprināt soli pa solim, izmantojot kognitīvi biheiviorālās terapijas pieeju, pašapbalvošanu un atkārtotu apņemšanos.Marija Ābeltiņa ir klīniskā psiholoģe, psiholoģijas zinātņu doktore un grāmatas "Profesionālā izdegšana" autore. Viņa ir kognitīvi biheiviorālās terapijas speciāliste un daudzus gadus vadījusi biedrības "Skalbes" padomi.Ja šī vai kāda cita Cilvēkjaudas saruna tev noderēja vai bija interesanta, uzsauc Cilvēkjaudai virtuālo “kafiju”.

We're on Patreon! Find us at https://www.patreon.com/AudioUnleashed This week, Brent and Dennis kick things off by considering whether lack of cred is as big a problem with audio critics as it is for music critics, and debate whether or not Billy Joel is one of our greatest songwriters, even though both of them would happily pay to never hear “Uptown Girl” again. Then they dig deep into the latest retro revival sweeping through the speaker industry: field coils. Are electromagnets better for inner detail than permanent magnets? What do they do to microdynamics? We report; you decide. And wrapping up the conversation for most listeners, they riff on the announcements of two radically different personal audio products: a $7500 “quad-brid” IEM from Campfire and an adorable little headphone amp and DAC from Fosi.   

Stāsta komponiste, literāte, JVLMA docētāja Gundega Šmite; pārraides producente Rūta Paula Ne vienam vien, arī man pašai, pirms par savām otrajām mājām sāku saukt saulaino Grieķiju, kā pirmā asociācija par grieķu tautas dejām nāk prātā sirtaki, kuru izpilda, dejotājiem izvietojoties garenā virtenē, uzliekot rokas uz kaimiņa pleciem un virzoties, veikli krustojot soļus uz priekšu un atpakaļ. Taču sirtaki nav grieķu tautas deja – tās autors ir grieķu komponists Mikis Teodorakis, kura nozīme un slava līdzināma Raimonda Paula statusam latviešu mūzikā. Turklāt slavenais sirtaki radīts kā filmas skaņu celiņš 1964. gadā uzņemtajai filmai "Grieķis Zorba". Interesants ir fakts, ka dejas nosaukumu – sirtaki – radījis nevis Teodorakis, bet grieķa Zorbas lomas atveidotājs, amerikāņu aktieris Entonijs Kvinns. "Sirtos" tik tiešām ir grieķu tautas dejas žanrs – līnijdeja, no kura ietekmējās Teodorakis, sacerot savu leģendāro sirtaki. Nosaukums "sirtaki" nozīmē – mazais sirtos; respektīvi – tas ir deminutīvs šim vārdam. Pazīstamajam sirtaki ir divas daļas – pirmā lēna un ātra, kura kļūst arvien ātrāka.  Dejas sākuma cēlais raksturs un lēnais temps saistīts ar apstākli, ka aktieris bija lauzis kāju un nespēja izpildīt horeogrāfa Jorga Proviasa iecerētos augstos lēcienus. Kvinns nācis klajā ar priekšlikumu – izpildīt velkošus, slīdošus soļus, kurus, kā viņš teica, viņam ierādījis kāds Krētas ciema iedzīvotājs. "Siro" grieķu valodā nozīmē "vadīt deju", burtiskā nozīmē – vilkt. Jāpiebilst, ka vēl viena no sirtaki ietekmēm ir viduslaikos dzimusī cēlā kareivju deja hasapiko. Filmas izskaņā liedagā stāv divi kungi. Jauns, pieklājīgs, rezervēts vīrietis – rakstnieks Bazils baltā uzvalkā, un sirmais Krētas iedzīvotājs, savā garā allaž brīvais Zorba. Izputējis filmas galveno varoņu biznesa plāns un abi ir palikuši tukšām rokām. Piepeši jaunais vīrietis saka: "Iemāci man dejot." "Dejot?! Vai tu teici – dejot?" – tā grieķis Zorba izsaucas neslēptā sajūsmā, noraujot savu virsjaku. "Nāc, manu zēn! Sāksim!" Un pāris Zorbas ritma knipjiem seko dejas sākuma taktis. Virs ģitāras šūpojošā ritma uzplaukst grieķu tradicionālā tautas instrumenta buzuki balss – saulaini spalga kā dienas gaisma, kas spoguļojas baltajā marmorā. Drīz liedaga smiltis sāk putēt zem deju soļiem. Rit leģendārākā un dzīvi apliecinošākā epizode grieķu filmogrāfijā. Tajā dejo tikai divi aktieri, vēl nenojaušot, kādu popularitāti šī deja iegūs nākamajās dekādēs līdz pat mūsdienām. Sirtaki ir viena no dejām, kas kļuvusi par grieķu kultūras daļu; tā tiek dejota gan kāzās, kristībās un citos svētkos. Paši grieķi 2012. gadā Volosas pilsētas svētkos ir uzstādījuši rekordu, izveidojot 5614 cilvēku virteni ar dalībniekiem vecumā no 14 līdz 89 gadiem.  Grieķu sirtaki tiek nereti izmantots arī mūzikas terapijā – tā pakāpeniski paātrinošais temps un paredzamais ritms palīdz atbrīvoties no spriedzes, mazina trauksmi un rosina radošu pašizpausmi.

We're on Patreon! Find us at https://www.patreon.com/AudioUnleashed This week, Brent and Dennis dig deep into the new “Meta” for in-ear monitors, which some say will replace all IEM target curves even though it's not a target curve. Got it? Yeah, us neither. Then they ponder whether the radical creations of a new artsy fartsy speaker company have any merits other than loosely resembling Chewbacca. In segment three, they are forced to discuss Wilson's new flagship speaker based only on what legacy audio publications said about it, since it appears Audio Unleashed's invite to the unveiling slipped unnoticed into our spam folder.

Ready to make the leap from wedges to in-ear monitors? Or finally get the stage mix you’ve always wanted? Dave Hamilton welcomes back monitor engineer Paul Klimson, the man who mixed 32 stereo IEM feeds for Justin Timberlake, for a working musician’s deep dive on monitor world. You’ll learn how to build a default mix from scratch (start yourself at 0dB, your instrument at -5, everything else at -15), why drummers have an easier transition to in-ears than most assume, and how a split snake lets you take care of yourself when the gig demands it. Paul digs into hi-hat pitfalls, drum overheads as stage wash, and why bands who mix themselves on stage make life better for their FOH engineer, too. Then it gets practical. Paul walks you through IEM fittings (pain is always bad, the seal is everything, and yes, drop an AirTag in your case) plus the universal-versus-custom decision, vetting vendor customer service before you buy, and the repair costs nobody talks about until they need to. You’ll get honest talkback etiquette (keep the drama off-stage, give everyone a voice, remember that your monitor engineer is a short-order cook), the post-mortem habit every band should adopt, and a peek at SoulSeed.tv. Wherever you sit on stage, this is the episode that sharpens how you Always Be Performing. 00:00:00 Gig Gab 532 – Monday, May 4th, 2026 May 4th: Dave Brubeck Day Guest co-host: Paul Klimson 00:03:24 Start with headphones in your practice space Start with earplugs 00:05:09 Drums are a dynamic instrument, which may be why drummers have an easy transition to IEMs (usually) 00:08:33 What do you want in your wedge?

In this episode of Gig Gab, you get the full story of how Kevin “KG” Glendinning cold-emailed his way from a Chicago suburb into a 25-year career mixing monitors for Alicia Keys, Maroon 5, Justin Timberlake, Miley Cyrus, Lorde, and more. You hear how a kid sweeping floors at dB Sound ended up on a Metallica tour bus with one piece of advice ringing in his ears: ask questions, stay late, and get a second job because you’re gonna need it. Kevin walks you through migrating artists to in-ear monitors, managing talkback culture for everyone from Eddie Vedder wanting baseball scores to Lorde’s tight production team, and what it takes to help reluctant guitar players finally ditch the wedges. If you’ve ever wondered what separates a good monitor engineer from a great one, this conversation lays it out. You also dive deep into the art and science of making IEMs sound right in every room, every night. Kevin shares his process of minimal reduction: fixing a bad mix by figuring out what to take away, not what to add, and explains why tuning for in-ears is just as critical as tuning a PA. You learn why he flies 4,700 miles for a single gig, why the best mixes sometimes come from a throw-and-go, and how setting up dummy channels lets you experiment without wrecking the artist’s mix. He and Dave talk hearing health, audiograms, the DPA capsule as the only open mic on the Lorde stage, and why knowing your own ears matters more than knowing your gear. Whether you’re mixing monitors at an arena or running sound at a club gig, this episode is packed with wisdom you can use tonight.

You tighten your gig prep by treating every show like a pro mission: build rock-solid routines, line-check your gear and apps, and know your insurance, splitter snake, setlist, click, and IEM plan before you ever hit the stage. You walk into a wedding or club already covered with proper liability, routing, charts, and monitoring so you can stop worrying about logistics and start playing the room. Always Be Performing. Onstage, you think like a storyteller, not just a musician: you record full shows to review your banter and flow, you decide when the click helps and when to ditch it, and you refine what makes your band distinctive so people remember your name and feel the FOMO. Offstage, you act like a lab: you binge showcases at events like SXSW, steal the best ideas, use AI to critique rehearsals, and keep your gig bag dialed so every performance gets sharper, louder, and more undeniable. 00:00:00 Gig Gab 527 – Monday, March 30th, 2026 March 30th: Take a Walk in the Park Day 00:01:29 What is your gig prep process? 00:06:55 Skylar-How does a band get a certificate of insurance for a wedding gig?

The hosts sync up again with Tal Kocen and Dave Friesema of Dark Matter Audio Labs in Episode 319 to see what they've been up to as they start off their second year as Dark Matter with a bang — albeit a safe and quiet one, thanks to their new hearing protection offerings. Hearing protection and safety is a subject we come back to semi-regularly on Signal to Noise because it's so important, so we're excited to see another great option, and hear about what makes these different.The gang didn't stop at earplugs, though–they also learned all about the “hows and whys” of Dark Matter's new ambient IEM offerings (and what they have in common with earplugs), as well as an overview of what their different models sound like and who each one is best suited to, why to choose custom models over universal-fit (or why not to), and more.Dave and Tal also let us in on some late breaking news, that they're starting to offer universal-fit versions of their custom products. Finally, they shared a special bonus offer for Signal to Noise listeners of 15 percent off any purchases from Dark Matter with discount code “S2N15”.NOTE: If you're in the NYC area this weekend — March 7-8 — Dark Matter and sibling company Dekoni Audio are sharing a space at the CanJam headphone show, where they'll have demo models of all their IEMs, and be taking impressions for custom models right on site!

You're riding along with Kaitlyn Raitz as she breaks down the real mechanics of touring at scale: staying human on a bus, finding tiny routines that keep you sane, and surviving the sleep math when you're one of twelve buses on a massive run. Then it's straight into the onstage reality of modern country arena production: 24 musicians, a full string quartet, choir, and horns, plus the challenge of making strings translate in a loud arena. You get the practical gear-and-tech layer too: DPA mics and pickups, dynamic EQ, managing cello loudness, and how tools like ToneDexter fit into keeping tone consistent when the room is working against you. You also get the career side, unfiltered: how the Eric Church gig happened through the Nashville relationship web, why being excellent and easy to be around matters, and why “Nashville is a ten-year town” if you want longevity. Kaitlyn's stories span arranging and learning charts mid-tour from iPads, to the whiplash of getting a Grammy call with barely any runway, to recording in LA and wondering how anyone actually functions there. The episode closes with the mindset and performance skills that keep pros durable: protecting your brain and nervous system, flipping a stage persona on and off, and the practical win of transitioning to IEMs for a cellist when monitors are run well. Bottom line: this is how you keep your craft sharp, your head steady, and your show consistent night after night.

19. decembrī pulksten 19  Latvijas Universitātes Lielajā aulā pirmo reizi Latvijā koncertu sniegs  izcilā baroka vijolniece Alfija Bakijeva, kura festivālā "Eiropas Ziemassvētki" muzicēs kopā ar kamerorķestri "Sinfonietta Rīga" gan kā soliste, gan vienlaikus kā orķestra vadītāja. No Roskildes festivāla decibeliem, ekspresīviem tango ritmiem un tatāru tautas melodijām līdz baroka mūzikas zeltītajai spozmei un alegorijām. Tāds ir vijolnieces Alfijas Bakijevas radošais lidojums, kas šķērso žanru un kultūru robežas. Baroka vijoles spēli viņa slīpējusi pie Enriko Onofri – leģendārā "Il Giardino Armonico" dibinātāja un ilggadēja šī ansambļa koncertmeistara. Kā soliste, koncertmeistare un atskaņojuma vadītāja viņa muzicē kopā ar senās mūzikas grandiem – Žordi Savalu un viņa "Le Concert des Nations" vai izcilo itāļu ansambli "Il Pomo d'Oro". Šim laikam pirms Ziemassvētkiem māksliniece izvēlējusies spožākās Georga Fīlipa Tēlemaņa, Jana Dīsmasa Zelenkas un Johana Sebastiāna Baha partitūras. Koncerta norisei ikviens varēs sekot "Klasikas" tiešraidē. Alfija Bakijeva spēlē Frančesko Rudžēri vijoli, kas izgatavota 1680. gadā Itālijas pilsētā Kremonā, un kuru viņai uztic Jumpstart Jr. fonds. Inta Zēgnere: Prieks jūs satikt Rīgā: esat šeit pirmo reizi, un šī ir arī jūsu pirmā sadarbība ar orķestri “Sinfonietta Rīga”. Kādi ir jūsu iespaidi par mūsu mūziķiem? Alfija Bakijeva: Man ir liels prieks būt šeit! Patiešām, esmu Rīgā pirmo reizi. Biju ļoti laimīga, kad orķestris ar mani sazinājās, un esmu sajūsmā, ierodoties šeit. Patiešām – ar prieku gaidīju šo sadarbību! Strādāt ar šo orķestri ir liels prieks. Viņi ārkārtīgi dziļi jūt mūziku. Ļoti bieži man pat nav nekas jāsaka, jo viņi tik uzmanīgi un precīzi visu uztver… Ir liels prieks sadarboties un veidot šo skaisto programmu kopā. Mēs nākam no dažādām vidēm: es spēlēju vijoli, kura ir zarnu  stīgas, orķestra mūziķu rīcībā savukārt ir instrumenti ar metāla stīgām, bet skaņas saplūsme man šķiet pārsteidzoši skaista! Tāpat frāzēšanas izjūta dažādos stilos ir lieliska. Es patiešām apbrīnoju viņu meistarību. Kā jūs varētu izskaidrot to, ka skaņas saplūsme ir tik veiksmīga, ja Sinfonietta spēlē modernos instrumentus, bet jūs – baroka vijoli? Domāju, tas ir tāpēc, ka mūzikai nav robežu un mūziķiem piemīt liels jūtīgums, radot  skaņu, kā arī spēja pielāgoties un sekot. Tas liecina par orķestra augsto profesionalitāti. Jūs minējāt, ka spēlējat baroka laika instrumentu ar zarnu stīgām. Pastāstiet, lūdzu, par savu vijoli! Man ir ļoti īpašs instruments. Man bija gods parakstīt līgumu ar "Jumpstart Junior Foundation" Amsterdamā. Fondam ir privāta kolekcija, tika rīkots  konkurss , kurā mani uzaicināja uz noklausīšanos. Kopumā bija uzaicināti 14 vijolnieki no visas pasaules. Tajā brīdī kolekcijā bija divi instrumenti, un man bija gods parakstīt līgumu par vienu no tiem – Frančesko Rudžēri instrumentu. Viņš  tiek uzskatīts par Nikolo Amati skolnieku. Mana vijole izgatavota ap 1680. gadu Kremonā. Instruments ir īsts šedevrs ar skaistu toni, un ir liels gods to spēlēt. Katrs instruments ir mākslas darbs,  tāpat kā glezna. Katram instrumentam ir unikāla skaņa un īpašības. Kādus komplimentus jūs varētu veltīt savai ļoti retajai vijolei? Neesmu skaitījusi, cik pasaulē ir šī meistara būvēto instrumentu, bet, cik saprotu, šāda vijole pieejama tikai fondiem, un to piešķir īpašiem mūziķiem. Konkrēti šim fondam pieder divas Rudžēri vijoles: otru spēlē mans kolēģis un draugs Emanuels Rečs (Emmanuel Resch), kurš dzīvo Parīzē un ir viens no "Les Arts Florissants" koncertmeistariem. Mana vijole reaģē uz visu, ko vēlos izteikt  frāzējot — tā ne tikai reaģē, bet bieži padara to vēl labāku, nekā biju iedomājusies. Dažreiz man jāsaka: “Ak, Dievs, nebiju iedomājusies, ka tas būs tik skaisti!” Tas ir neticams partneris mūzikā. Notiek  savstarpējs mijiedarbības process frāzēšanā. Tas ir ļoti interesanti, kā senie instrumenti māca mums interpretēt baroka laikmeta mūziku. Atceros, kā Kristians Bezeidenhauts stāstīja, ka vecie Mocarta laika instrumenti viņam iemācīja saprast , ko pats Mocarts bija domājis, rakstot savu mūziku. Tieši tā. Man bija gods spēlēt Mocarta vijoli pirms gada — itāļu vijoli no fonda “Mozart Stiftung della Costa”. Tā bija viena no visdziedošākajām  itāļu balsīm, ko es jebkad esmu dzirdējusi. Bija satriecoši skaisti. Iemācījos tik daudz no šīs nelielās iespējas spēlēt šo instrumentu — tās bija tikai dažas stundas, mēģinājumā un koncertā. Tā kā tas ir valsts dārgums, protams, nevarēju to ņemt līdzi. Kad Rīgā satiku Enriko Onofri, viņš izstāstīja, kā vijole ienāca viņa dzīvē. Tas bija ļoti neparasts stāsts: Enriko jau bija 14 gadi, kad tēvs atnesa mājās instrumentu. Viņš bija gleznotājs un vēlējās to uzgleznot. Un Enriko iemīlējās šajā vijolē. Enriko Onofri ir jūsu skolotājs, bet kāds ir jūsu piedzīvojums  ar vijoli? Kā jūs sākat spēlēt šo instrumentu? Mani vecāki nav mūziķi. Ģimenē esam trīs bērni, es esmu vecākā. Brālis spēlē vijoli, māsa – čellu, un viņa ir arī folkloras, popmūzikas un džeza dziedātāja. Kad biju bērns, vecāki vēlējās, lai es studēju mūziku, un jautāja, vai gribu to darīt. Es atbildēju – jā, jo neuztvēru to kā jautājumu, bet drīzāk kā pavēli… Vecāki nolēma, ka mācīšos klavieres, bet skolā nebija brīvu vietu, tāpēc sāku ar vijoli. Tādējādi tā kļuva par manu instrumentu un manu likteni. Bet starp baroka vijoli un mūsdienu vijoli ir atšķirība. Kā jūs nonācāt pie baroka instrumenta un sapratāt, ka vēlaties veltīt dzīvi baroka mūzikai? Es pat atceros precīzu dienu, kad tas notika! Strādāju operā, kurā pirms daudziem, daudziem gadiem galvenais diriģents bija Teodors Kurencis. Biju pavisam jauna, 17–18 gadi, un skolotājs man teica, ka ir kāds jauns grieķu diriģents un ir brīva vieta orķestrī – lai eju uz noklausīšanos. Aizgāju ar moderno  vijoli. Izturēju konkursu un kļuvu par koncertmeistara asistenti operā, Novosibirskā... Diriģents bija liels baroka mūzikas cienītājs, viņš iegādājās mums baroka vijoles, zarnu stīgas un baroka lociņus. Tad viņš mums iedeva kompaktdiskus, DVD un sacīja: “Es nevaru jums iemācīt spēlēt – vienkārši klausieties un mēģiniet atdarināt.” Es patiesi iemīlējos tajā mūzikā… Kad sāku mājās klausīties pirmo albumu, raudāju no pašas pirmās nots – tas bija tik apbrīnojami un skāra mani tik dziļi, ka sapratu: tas ir tas, ko vēlos darīt visu mūžu. Un tad es atvēru šī albuma bukletu, lai uzzinātu, kas spēlē, un tur bija rakstīts – Enriko Onofri. Tūlīt pat gūglē sameklēju viņa vārdu, un tur bija rakstīts, ka 2006. gadā viņš rīko meistarklases. Sapratu: lai tur vai kas – es braukšu! Tas pilnībā mainīja manu dzīvi. No tās dienas es atradu savu spēles veidu, kas ir ļoti tuvs manai  sirdij un dvēselei, ko vēlējos īstenot savā dzīvē. Es vēlējos kļūt par šī visuma daļu un izzināt to. Un man palīdzēja Enriko Onofri. Tad jūs kļuvāt par Onofri studentu Palermo? Jā. Tad sekoja lidojums no Novosibirskas uz Palermo, un es kļuvu par viņa studenti. Tās bija ļoti lielas pārmaiņas. Viss bija jauns – krāsas, garšas, jūra, draudzīgums, Vidusjūras mentalitāte, jauna valoda, klase, spēles veids. Vesela odiseja – tik daudz atklājumu! Palermo studēju sešus gadus, bet nodzīvoju tur astoņus. Savukārt pēc tam devos uz  Austriju, kur studēju Vīnes klasiku – klasisku, vēsturiski pamatotu interpretāciju, kā arī romantisko mūziku. Studēju "Mozarteum" Universitātē Zalcburgā, kur mācījos pie Hiro Kurosaki un spēlēju klasisko uz romantisko repertuāru, izmantojot zarnu stīgas. Bet tagad noteikti esat laimīga par savu Kremonas dārgumu. Jā, ļoti laimīga, bet līgums ir ierobežots: vēl trīs gadi, un pēc tam vijole tiks piešķirta citam mūziķim, kurš to varēs lietot nākamos septiņus gadus. Tomēr ar šo vijoli ir jau daudz paveikts: ierakstīta Vivaldi mūzika kopā ar Žordi Savaļu un viņa ansambli "Les Musiciens de Concert de Nation". (..) Gribu pavaicāt arī par tatāru mūziku – jūs esat izveidojusi  savu ansambli Jā, ar māsu un sicīliešu perkusionistu. Manā ģimenē mana vecmāmiņa un vecvecmāmiņa bija amatierdejotājas un dziedātājas, un viņas saglabāja ģimenes mūzikas tradīciju. Es nolēmu to turpināt. Lūdzu mammai filmēt vecmāmiņu dziedam un fiksēt viņas uzkrāto tautas mantojumu. Viņa to izdarīja, savukārt es pierakstīju visus tekstus un melodijas un mēs ar māsu izveidojām aranžējumus, lai iepazīstinātu cilvēkus ar mūsu mākslu un mantojumu. Jūsu māsa dzied. Jā, gan dzied, gan spēlē dažādus instrumentus. Kad uzstājamies, vienlaikus piedzīvojam arī skaistu un siltu ģimenes sajūtu. Mēs svinam mūziku un dejojam! Un uzstājaties savos tautastērpos. Jā, tos izgatavoja mana mamma, kas ir tērpu darinātāja. Tā ir ģimenes sadarbība. Vairāk - ierakstā.   

In this episode of "What's the Risk?" we take a look at the historic performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index. Some people would know ETFs that seeks to track the performance of this index as Blackrock's IEM and Betashares BEMG ETF.Emerging markets have been much better as of late, and that's attracted the attention of investors again. It wasn't that long ago that emerging markets were significantly punished after Russia invaded Ukraine, and they were in the doldrums for a time after. This highlights some of the risks associated with emerging markets, some countries have governments and leaders that can increase volatility if you overweight them. While we're looking at MSCI's index, we do a comparison to FTSE's index which is tracked by Vanguard's VGE in Australia, and look a some of the differences between the two because there are some differences on country inclusions and size inclusions.Want to learn more about investing?

C'est une histoire digne d'un scénario de science-fiction… sauf qu'elle est vraie. Le 6 juin 2025, le Wall Street Journal a levé le voile sur un pan méconnu de l'histoire militaire américaine : l'utilisation délibérée du mythe des ovnis par le Pentagone pour dissimuler ses programmes d'armement ultra-secrets.L'un des cas les plus révélateurs remonte à 1967, dans le Montana. Ce soir-là, un capitaine de l'US Air Force affirme avoir vu une lumière étrange survoler un silo de missiles balistiques intercontinentaux. Puis, sans explication, les systèmes électriques et les ogives sont désactivés. À l'époque, l'événement est classé top secret. Officiellement, on parle d'un « phénomène inexpliqué ». Officieusement, il s'agissait d'un test militaire utilisant une impulsion électromagnétique (IEM), destinée à perturber les installations électroniques ennemies. L'effet secondaire ? Une lueur artificielle dans le ciel, facilement assimilable à un « ovni ».Mais l'intox ne s'arrête pas là.Dans les années 1980, alors que les États-Unis testent des technologies furtives encore jamais vues, comme le F-117 Nighthawk, un étrange personnage se rend dans un bar du Nevada. Il y laisse des photos de “soucoupes volantes”, accompagnées d'un discours confus sur les extraterrestres. Intrigués, les services de renseignement identifient l'homme : un colonel à la retraite, agissant sur ordre de ses supérieurs, dans le cadre d'une opération de désinformation. Objectif ? Détourner l'attention des vrais essais menés dans la région, notamment à proximité de la célèbre Zone 51, et semer le doute auprès des éventuels espions soviétiques.Car la Zone 51 est bien réelle, et elle a servi de site de test pour des appareils révolutionnaires, comme le SR-71 Blackbird ou le drone U-2, conçus pour des missions de surveillance en haute altitude pendant la Guerre froide. Les formes inhabituelles de ces engins, leur comportement silencieux et leurs trajectoires non conventionnelles ont alimenté, sans effort, la légende des « objets volants non identifiés ».Selon des experts interrogés par National Geographic, le Pentagone a volontairement entretenu cette confusion. Non pas pour valider l'idée d'extraterrestres, mais pour créer un écran de fumée utile à la sécurité nationale. En brouillant les pistes, les autorités empêchaient non seulement le public d'en apprendre trop… mais aussi les services secrets ennemis.Aujourd'hui, l'AARO, un bureau fondé en 2022 pour enquêter sur les phénomènes aériens non identifiés, reconnaît que certaines de ces “observations” étaient liées à des projets militaires confidentiels. La question extraterrestre reste ouverte, mais une chose est sûre : les ovnis ont été, au moins en partie, un outil stratégique du Pentagone. Hébergé par Acast.

Šajā dziļajā un atklātajā sarunā teologs, mācītājs un lektors Indulis Paičs ielūkojas pašvērtības un jēgpilnas dzīves noslēpumos. Viņš vedina izprast mūsdienu sabiedrībā tik aktuālo pašapziņas konceptu, atklājot, ka tā nav tikai maska vai sacensība ar citiem, bet gan dziļa sajūta par savu piederību pasaulei un Universam. Caur personīgiem piemēriem un garīgām atziņām Paičs atsedz ceļu, kā atrast savu īsto aicinājumu un dzīvot saskaņā ar to – ieklausoties savā iekšējā balsī un netraucējot tam avotam, kas mūsos ir, brīvi izpausties. Šī saruna ir vērtīgs ceļvedis ikvienam, kas meklē dziļāku dzīves jēgu un vēlas justies patiesi dzīvs.Iegūsti BEZMAKSAS mājaslapas analīzi 300 EUR vērtībā no Cilvēkjaudas atbalstītāja Premium Solutions.

0:14Good morning, good morning, good afternoon.0:15How are you doing out there in the world?0:18And well, this is a revamp of prepare responder covers program we put on last two, oh, guess two years ago, right, We started with it.0:29I'm looking into all different aspects of what it is to respond to large scale emergencies and not just Emergency Management. Still, we're looking at law, fire, EMS, private industry, public side of things.0:47It's a broad brush.0:49And so I'm excited.0:51And so Todd and I, Todd Manzat is the 2 Todd's here.0:55Start talking about it, what it is and, and, and you know, he's got some really great insight.1:01I've known Todd for a while now.1:04And as you can tell here, the Blue Cell is the premier sponsor of this program.1:08And so I want to thank Todd for that.1:10And Todd, welcome.1:11Welcome to our show, I guess, for lack of better term.1:14Hey, well, thanks, thanks for the welcome.1:16And, you know, it was, it was kind of funny as we were kind of batting this around at the end of last year and, you know, here we are now getting ready to kind of jump right into it.1:29But certainly the world's events have helped us to have at least some stuff to talk about in the last 30 days.1:38It feels like it's April already.1:40And I know we'll get into a little bit of that.1:42But thanks for having me.1:43I'm glad to be part of it.1:46I think this is the longest January I've ever lived, Right?1:53Well, it's, you know, in some ways we're thinking back a little bit to, you know, what's going on.1:58I was in New Orleans this week and the events of New Year's Eve are in the distant past when they're worried about the Super Bowl.2:06They had a snowstorm and they had a a Sugar Bowl.2:09And it's, it's really interesting that the tempo right now is as real as it gets with regards to, you know, what we are going to be talking about here, you know, interested about that.2:22It's like, you know, obviously the, the events of January 1st with both New Orleans and Vegas, how quickly it came out of, out of the news cycle because you know, fires happened in, in, in California, you know, and that kept us hopping over here.2:40You know, obviously you guys all know that I live in, well, maybe not everybody, but I, I live in Southern California.2:46And so those fires directly impacted my area, not necessarily where I live, but close enough to where I have friends that lost homes and stuff in the fire.2:57So, I mean, and then then we got rain right after that, which is causing problems.3:03And then there's snow storms in in Louisiana in the South that's causing problems there.3:07And we're still not recovering from Hurricane Helene, You know, And then in the midst of all this, we get a new presidential administration, which is definitely moving fast, you know, And yeah, so are, are we going to be able to take your breath?3:28Well, you know, I don't know that we have a choice, right?3:30It's that kind of race.3:32And, you know, being as ready as we can be in different places, that's kind of part of it.3:38So that the folks who are sprinting as fast as they can can be relieved.3:41And one of the things that was interesting when I was in, in Louisiana this past week, they were talking about barring snow plows from another state.3:49Who, who does know how to do that, you know, pretty interestingly.3:52And then obviously, unfortunately, the events in DC with the, with the plane crash as the, you know, the most recent thing, another really, you know, significant type of event and response.4:09Just hearing, you know, some of the press conference stuff where they're talking about, you know, the things that, you know, I teach all the time, Unified command 300 responders out there.4:21Got to replace those responders.4:23Got a lot going on, got a lot of media, right.4:26All those aspects of something that makes any kind of response a little more complex.4:34Definitely it's going to be a a fun filled year of topics if we stay at this at this pace for sure.4:44Yeah, I want to talk about that plane crash here for forbid, not not about the plane crunch itself, but about how as a those of us in the field, you know, I know a whole bunch of people that are traveling at any given time.5:01I mean, you're one of them, a couple of friends down in Texas.5:05You have a friend of mine who carries Fronza, who's the president of IEM, who she was travelling during this time.5:13And I went to my, my, my click box of, oh, who do I need?5:17Who do I need to call to see if they're impacted by this?5:20And even if it's something as far away as DC, you know, and now you're going, oh, crap.5:25I mean, I called you or at least reached out to you to see if you know if you're travelling yet.5:30So you don't.5:30It's just this is amazing, like how small of a world we truly are when it comes to that.5:36And then I have friends that work and you do too, Todd, you know, that work in the capital that a part of Metro and and and DC fire and Fairfax fire.5:46And you know, you, you see this happening.5:48You're going, these are people who you know closely that are already impacted by this event, let alone the tragedy of the those lives that were lost, you know, in this tragic accident.6:01And I think that's part of the thing with what we do here between you and myself and, and the, and the organizations that, you know, we do touch every aspect of, of the United States and at some point global when it comes to Emergency Management, We're going to be able to bring those, that perspective to, to the this conversation.6:24Yeah.6:24I think the, the other thing that kind of jumped out at me was, you know, trying to think back through the history and, and certainly some of the legacy media folks were talking about the last time we had a crash and how long ago it was.6:38And in fact, I don't know if you picked up on it.6:41That last one was Buffalo and obviously Buffalo, NY.6:46You've got connections to that place, right?6:48Yeah, yeah, right.6:52And I'm headed to Binghamton, NY next Friday, which is not that far down the road.6:57So it's, you know, to bring it somewhat full circle, preparedness, response and recovery are interconnected.7:05All these disciplines are interconnected.7:09How we do things, we're trying to make them as interconnected, you know, as possible.7:17And I think it's going to be the right conversation, especially when we bring some doctrinal things in and and talking about some specific topics and then trying to overlay it to things that are really happening.7:31I think that's going to be one of the unique things about the conversation, hopefully, as we move the show forward.7:38Yeah, absolutely.7:39And I think the other thing too, Todd, that you know, you and I have some really deep conversations, you know, when it comes to the state of Emergency Management, the state of disaster response, you know, where where we need to go and how to get there.7:57And you know, the fact that we have a kind of book in this thing here, but we have progressive states that look at Emergency Management and disaster response and disaster preparedness and planning as holistic, right?8:13So that means like fire, police, EMS, public works, right, that we always forget, you know, public health, they're all involved in the conversation.8:23And then you have some States and somewhere areas that are myopic, right?8:27And they're very much silos on everything they they do.8:30I think some of the conversation that we're going to have here is hopefully to break down those silos and and be able to have those full conversations that we are all hazards approach to everything that we look at.8:42And I think that's critical, right?8:45And I think also in the, you know, our show concept, and I think it's important to share, you know, in this first episode, it won't just be me and you hanging out with each other.8:55I think our concept of bringing in guests as a, a third element to the show, a third voice, I think will be important.9:04I know you're working on lining up a few.9:06I'm working on lining up a few.9:08It'll be exciting.9:09And, you know, as we move into the coming weeks to get that guest line up out to folks and they can kind of hear a perspective and we'll definitely, you know, be leveraging our relationships.9:21I think to to bring in some strong, strong individuals to give a dynamic focus on, you know, what we're talking about.9:31And Speaking of relationships, I mean, you know, the other good part about this too is Todd, you and I both have some good relationships with some people that can bring really great insight.9:43And so we'll be leveraging those relationships as well to be able to bring you the audience some more insight to what what's happening in, in close to real time as possible.9:53And then of course, you know, my position with IEM allow some conversations to to happen as well.10:01And the Today as an example, well, we, we have to talk a little bit about the, the elephant in the room is what's going on with FEMA.10:10The, the president has set forth his vision on, on making changes.10:16And I don't think there's an emergency manager in the United States right now that doesn't think the Stafford Act needs to be, you know, looked at and, and fixed, right?10:30You know, it's an old act, right?10:33And that FEMA does need to have, you know, to be maybe remodeled a little bit.10:38Sure.10:39I, I definitely don't think it should be destroyed and taken away, But you know, where does it belong and, and, and how does it work?10:47And you know, I've been calling for a few years now.10:49Well, let's say probably over 10 years now that FEMA should be a stand alone agency.10:53And there's, there's cons and pros for both for, for all of this, right?10:59And then today I got to sit down with the acting administrator, Hamilton to hear a little bit about his background and what his, his, you know, his goals are.11:11And the good thing is, is what he's doing right now is listening to the emergency managers out there, meeting with the big groups such as IEM and Nima, big cities, meeting with them to discuss what their needs and goals and, and desires are when it comes to what FEMA is and can be.11:34And I think it's a really important first step.11:37And I, and I commend them for that.11:40Yeah.11:40You know, the, the, the basic rules and kind of organizational leadership are you, you got to, got to figure out what your objectives are, to figure out what your mission is, that type of thing.11:51And, and many times it's a driving factor in where you end up or who you're working for working under and, and how it's supposed to work.12:00I think, you know, that revisit it's, it's not something necessarily that, you know, every time you get a new leader in that you need to do that, But you also can't go 20 or 30 or 40 years and have problems and not do it.12:16And you know, there obviously is a, has been for some time a heartbeat out there saying, Hey, let's let's have it as a, a cabinet member.12:27And my position is whether it's a cabinet member or not, it's still going to come down to the mission, the organization, understanding what the mission is and the talent that's inside the organization.12:40I was in this little teeny organization for a short time called the United States Marine Corps.12:45It's a it's a branch under a department, but everybody knows who we are.12:51Everybody knows what we do because we've got a clear mission.12:53I've had it for 250 years and we're the best at what we do.12:57So in some ways, when you do it well, it doesn't matter that you're not equal to the Department of the Navy and under the Department of the Navy, just as an example.13:09And so I think that's going to be a hard, long conversation and a lot of work that'll have to be done to establish that capability that is not only understood but is respected and is effective in the field.13:27Because that's what's been coming into question is it's effectiveness in the field.13:31Where it sits organizationally probably doesn't have much to do with that.13:35So I think it'll be interesting moving forward.13:39I'm not watching from afar.13:40Certainly have a lot of folks that I'm talking to that are, they're nervous and they're trying to, you know, decipher what's happening and figure it out and where do I fit in?13:51In the end, you got to do the best job that you can and not have that question because you did the best job that could be done.13:58And so I I think that'll be something worth talking about moving forward and, and watching how it kind of transpires.14:08Yeah, absolutely.14:09And, and you're right, I think nervousness, I think is a good word to say.14:13Uncertainty, right?14:14It breeds nervousness a little bit.14:15And I think that's kind of where we're at.14:17And, you know, the current administration's communication style is, is interesting at the at the best or at the worst, I suppose, or whichever we look at it is sometimes I believe, you know, President Trump just floats things out there just to see how people react.14:34And, you know, he's a, he's interesting guy that way.14:40And I think it takes a little bit of time to get used to that style of communication.14:45Whether you agree with it or not.14:46It just says it is what it is, right?14:48You know, not just talking about the yeah, go ahead.14:55I was going to say that.14:56I was just going to judge.15:01We all have to get used to how Manhattan downtown developers do business.15:08That's, that's what we have to get used to.15:10And, and most of us haven't had to deal with that.15:13So it's a, it's a different way that things get done.15:17There's no question.15:19Yeah, absolutely.15:20And like I said, I'm not, I'm not judging it.15:23I'm not putting a value to it.15:24I'm just saying it is what it is.15:25And this is what we have to deal with.15:26You know, I, I think as emergency managers and, and, and guys that are in the field, you know, when we're looking at situations, we have to understand that we don't have time to placate on whether we agree with something or not.15:43We just have to deal with the consequences of what's happening.15:45And, and, and this is where we're at.15:47We have to deal with the consequences that, that, that are happening.15:51And so, you know, that being said, you know, what is the future of Emergency Management when it comes to to what the federal government believes in?16:03That's going to be a long conversation.16:05You know, you know, and we, we have a long history of things changing.16:13And I think we forget this because, you know, we we live in the generation that we're in, right?16:20And we may look back at the previous generations, but we live in where we're at and what we're used to and in that comfort zone.16:28And, you know, I think if we reflect back to when, you know, Franklin Donald Roosevelt created an office that would look at Emergency Management, if you will, without using the terminology.16:39It's where we grew up from, you know, to Truman turned it into really the civil defense of what we think of today, you know, with the Burt the Turtle and all that nuclear stuff that they were dealing with.16:50And and then it kind of got to Jimmy Carter at this point where he turned it into FEMA in 79.16:56And then, of course, the Stafford Act.16:58These are chunks that we didn't live in, right?17:01You know, some I, I, you know, realistically, Todd, you and I, we're from, you know, 70s into the, to the 80s when we were, you know, kids and then we're working.17:12The experience has been this short box.17:14So we look at these boxes that we've lived in and not understanding what the, what the history was and what the changes are.17:20So, so this too, you know, will be a little uncomfortable, but maybe it's uncomfortable that we need to be better.17:28And if we look at it that way and, and as long as we're part of the conversation, that's my only concern is if we start having conversation without us, then what does that mean?17:38Right, right.17:40And I think the, the other thing, just analyzing it a little bit as an outsider looking in, I think what are the alternatives going to be?17:51You know, they're, they're talking about a few alternatives and, and putting pressure or responsibility in other places, like for example, the states.18:00Well, they better do a true analysis of whether that capability is actually there.18:07It sounds great and it probably looks good on paper, but there's going to be a harsh reality that that may not be the answer.18:17And I'm, I'm not going to call out any one state or any 10 states or any 25 states.18:22I'm just going to say there will be serious questions as to whether certain states can take on those previous FEMA responsibilities.18:33And I think it could be a bigger mess and a bigger tragedy if that's not really looked at very, very hard and and very critically in terms of what the capabilities actually are in some of those locations.18:51You know, I think about the fires that we just had here in Los Angeles County and one of the last fires that kicked off as this thing was burning, you know, they were able to put 4000 firefighters onto a fire in in a very short period of time to stop it from burning up the town of Castaic or the village, I guess, right.19:13We got lucky in one aspect that there were already firefighters down here from all over the place that we can, we, we can move those assets over.19:20You know, that's one state.19:23State of California is unique in that aspect of it.19:26I mean, I don't think and, and I'm going to pick on a state and I mean, I can, you know, if, if you fear for that state, please let me, I'm telling you, I don't know the assets.19:35So I'm not not saying that you can't do it.19:37But if you took like Montana, for instance, who has lot of wild land fires, I don't know if they could put in in in 30 minutes of a fire kicking off, Could they put 4000 firefighters on that fire in 30 minutes of a kicking off?19:52Or Colorado for that matter, where you're from, you know, do they have those assets?19:57And, and maybe they do, maybe they don't, but that's the difference between having mutual aid and the federal government coming in to be able to pay for things on the back end than it is to to not right.20:09And and again, maybe Montana and Colorado could put those assets on their.20:13I'm not, I'm not trying to say that you're not on issues as an example, I want to be clear on that.20:19But you know, without federal assistance immediately, can the smaller states handle those large scale disasters as quickly as they can right now?20:34Sure.20:34I yeah, I definitely think that's, you know, that resource management piece is a is a big aspect of it.20:40But let's say you're a week into it, do some of the states have the ability to even manage that?20:50You know, when we start to think about some of the large scale operations and you know, maybe maybe you have an Emergency Management office, full time staff of 20 people that may not have, you know, the ability or the experience of handling, you know, that type of complexity.21:11That is the word that always bothers me.21:16The, the actual complexity.21:18You know, incident command speaks to it quite a bit.21:21We've got a pretty good system for incident command.21:23We've got a pretty good system at the top tier of who manages complex incidents and who's qualified to manage complex incidents.21:32Well, you know, some of that would somewhat come into question if you don't have that guidance from, from FEMA or even some of their support from an IMAP perspective.21:42And then we're that we're going to rely on a state agency of, of 16 people to, to be able to do it.21:51I don't know.21:52I I think it's definitely something that it's going to be a, a bridge we have to cross if that's the direction that we end up going.22:00Yeah, absolutely.22:01And, and, and going back to some of the smaller states.22:03And I'll pick on Maine here for a minute because I was talking, I was talking to one of the guys from Maine and they have volunteer emergency managers, you know, you know, and I'm like, well, and it blew my mind when we had this conversation with him.22:22I'm like, you know, I I never thought about that, that you have a town, you know, a state that's so, you know, sparsely populated in some areas that they just have some dude who's like, all right, I'll, I'll do it for a volunteer.22:34You know, like that means you get your regular day job that you're doing and in the evening, maybe you're, you know, you're doing Emergency Management stuff.22:42Yeah, that kind of that kind of blows my mind a little bit.22:45So, you know, what do we do with states like that that don't even have the ask the the ability to pay for emergency managers, you know, to live in what?22:53I mean, you know, how do we ask?22:56How do we?22:56And the support doesn't necessarily, you know, I want to rewind the minute, the support doesn't necessarily have to be be people on the ground, right?23:05You know, those volunteer emergency managers in Maine may have the the capabilities of doing it as on a volunteer basis because they don't have a lot of disasters that occurred.23:13That's fine.23:13I'm not, I'm not making fun of that position.23:17What I'm saying is they need support and the support that they might get might just be from training, you know, grants to help pay for things because obviously their tax base is going to be lower.23:29So they may need those, those grants from from the federal government to to pay for programs, you know, the send people to EMI or whatever they change their name to, you know, you know, for, for training, you know, the university.23:50Is that the university?23:52FEMA you or, or, you know, used to be FEMA you.23:56yeah.com.23:58Good Lord.23:59Something we're going to, we're going to send us hate mail.24:02Jeff Stearns, Doctor Stearns, We're not making fun of you, man.24:05We're just right.24:12Excuse me, but yeah.24:14I mean, we go into this like, how do we support those smaller states that don't have big budgets?24:20I'm lucky to be from living in California and from New York, which are, you know, have big budgets, but I mean, heck, even New York State, you know, I mean, if you want to take a look at the responders in New York State, there's the majority of the responders in New York State are volunteer.24:41You know, it's one of the states that there are more Volunteer Fire departments in New York State than paid, you know, So what does that look like?24:50And, and what support are they getting from, from the federal government, whether it's through FEMA, the National Forest Service, I help it out with, with different grants and stuff.25:00The you, you know, out here in, in the West Coast, we have BLM, which has firefighting assets and things that could be used.25:09There's a lot of stuff that National Forest Service.25:12There's a lot of stuff that we're relying upon and maybe even too much, right?25:17Maybe that's the back of our mind and and we're relying on those, those assets.25:22You don't compare it to saying let's pretend they don't exist, right?25:26I don't know.25:28That's the stuff I think is making a lot of people nervous about some of the changes that are going on right now of the unknown answers to unknown questions.25:39Yeah.25:41Well, it's going to be interesting.25:42It's going to be good.25:43And we'll kind of start to figure out right the next, next episode and who knows who's going to be in what jobs.25:54So we, we may, we may get a, a really good guess right as we, as we move forward or some of the folks who've previously been in those positions that give us some insight.26:06I think that's really our goal.26:10Absolutely.26:11Well, Todd, you know, we're trying to keep these within that 30 minute window and we're coming up to the last few minutes here on our conversation.26:22Is there anything that you'd like to say to the listeners out there that are coming back and, and how do we, you know, to the new listeners that might be just finding us?26:32I say, you know, TuneIn and we definitely will keep it interested and keep it moving from that perspective and, and give some feel reporting too.26:41That's one of the things I know that we've talked about that we want to incorporate here because I think it'll give a little bit different feel to to the conversation.26:52But I think this was a good one to get us started and look forward to talking to you next week.27:00Absolutely, my friend.27:01Looking forward to seeing you next week.27:03It's always, it's always nice to see that big smile right there very often.27:09Right.27:09Yeah.27:11All right, all right, everybody, until

In Episode 285, the hosts are joined by Tal Kocen and Dave Friesema, founders of brand-new in-ear monitor maker Dark Matter Audio Labs. Sean and Andy were impressed with their IEMs when the company launched at NAMM a couple weeks ago, and knew they had to have the duo on to tell their story. This episode is sponsored by Allen & Heath and RCF.Tal and Dave detail their history in the live audio and IEM manufacturing worlds, and the journey that led to them branching off on their own to start Dark Matter Audio Labs. They also dig deep into the design and mechanics of IEMs, explaining a lot of what goes into making objectively and subjectively good IEMs, the surprisingly tricky task of making generic-fit demo models of custom IEMs, why the frequency response of IEMs might surprise you, and so much more!As a special bonus for listeners, Tal and Dave are offering a 10 percent discount off any of their in-ears to listeners…just use the discount code “SignalToNoise” when you check out!

Kā vērtēt cilvēka dzīvi? Kas nosaka tās kvalitāti un kāpēc cilvēki bieži vien neapzinās, ka novecot ir privilēģija, kas laupīta daudziem? Par to šajā epizodē sarunājamies ar sociālantropoloģi Annu Žabicku. Antropologi uz procesiem sabiedrībā raugās citādāk. Viņu pieeja var noderēt, lai paskatītos uz savu dzīvi un pamanītu tajā vairāk iespēju.Anna dalās ar novērojumiem savos pētījumos par to, kā dažādi sociālie, ekonomiskie un kultūras faktori ietekmē cilvēku pieredzi, kura varētu būt labāka. Runājām par latviešiem raksturīgiem aizspriedumiem pret pansionātiem, par medicīnas vēsturi, par radniecības saitēm caur kopīgu maltīšu ieturēšanu un kāpēc dāvanu pasniegšanas tradīcijas ir dziļi iesakņojušās mūsu kultūrā.Anna stāsta arī par medicīnas antropoloģijas perspektīvu un kā dažādi apstākļi ietekmē cilvēku spēju tikt galā ar slimībām un ārstēšanos. Tas palīdzēs laikus domāt par savu vecumdienu labklājību, īpaši sievietēm, kurām nabadzības risks ir augstāks.Vairāk informācijas sarunas lapā.SARUNAS PIETURPUNKTI:0:00 Ievads4.05 Kas pamudināja antropoloģi pētīt cilvēku novecošanos 9.44 “Uz novecošanos kopumā mums vajadzētu skatīties kā uz milzīgu privilēģiju”14:03 Ko pēta antropoloģija, kā atšķiras Eiropas un ASV sistēmas17:29 Nomierināties ar radniecības antropoloģijas palīdzību18:34 Izveidot medicīnas antropoloģijas kursu ar mērķi saniknot cilvēkus21:46 Slimība, diagnoze, pieredze – no kādiem faktoriem atkarīgs, kādēļ indivīdi šo uztver un izdzīvo atšķirīgi25:46 Galvenais mērķis, ko antropologi vēlas panākt medicīnā30:22 Piemērs, kas ilustrē to, kā daudz un dažādi apstākļi var ietekmēt indivīda spēju veikt ārstēšanas procesu33:30 Situācijas, par kurām pārmetam sev nevajadzīgi; kādēļ Latvijā ir aizspriedumi pret pansionātiem38:24 Kāds būtu ideālais modelis katra cilvēka vecumdienām40:40 “Mums nav politiskās gribas pievērsties tiem cilvēkiem, kuri mums jau ir” 43:34 Antropoloģes ieteikums, par ko rūpēties šodien, lai vecumdienas būtu baudāmākas48:05 “Nabadzības risks sievietēm ir augstāks nekā vīriešiem” – ko darīt, lai laicīgi sevi pasargātu53:18 Likumi stīvi un radniecība spuraina – uz ko skatās radniecības antropooģija56:17 Ēšana – radniecība – antropoloģija. “Vai mēs ēdam kopā tāpēc, ka mēs esam radinieki, vai mēs esam radinieki tāpēc, ka mēs ēdam kopā”57:35 Patiesais iemesls, kāpēc mēs pasniedzam dāvanas1:11:05 “Ielikt cilvēku centrā, cilvēka pieredzi centrā”1:13:46 Kā, fokusējoties uz otru, var iemācīties arī pozicionēt sevi1:22:17 Kas interesants atrodams Medicīnas vēstures muzejā1:24:36 Iemācīties saprast, ka atšķirība un dažādība ir resurss

¿Por qué no podemos mover las orejas como otros mamíferos? ¿Es bueno limpiarse las orejas con bastoncillos? ¿Por qué son así, circulares y con pliegues? Para resolver estas dudas, hablamos el Dr. Luis Ángel Vallejo, Jefe del servicio de otorrinolaringología y cirugía de cabeza y cuello del Hospital Río Hortega de Valladolid. Las redes sociales han hecho que el boca-oreja de toda la vida se intensifique tanto que ha provocado que todos los Mercadona de España se llenen de personas en busca del amor cada tarde, ¿estrategia o casualidad? La respuesta la tiene Oscar Cumí, CEO del portal de marketing influencer IEM 365, el más destacado en habla hispana sobre el influence marketing. Para ya alcanzar el podio con el programa con más curiosidades en una noche, nos vamos hasta Tarragona donde más de 400 expertos en murciélagos de distintas partes del mundo se han reunido allí para debatir sobre esta especie que destaca por su sistema de ecolocalizacion, que es uno de los más desarrollados del mundo animal. Carles Flaquer, biólogo del Museo de Ciencias Naturales de Granollers y uno de los organizadores de esta convención de murciélagos, nos cuenta todos los detalles del sistema auditivo de los murciélagos.

Veteran audio professional Mike Dias picks up where he left off with last week (in Episode 262), digging into the other side of his career in the worlds of in-ear monitors and microphones. He spends time addressing and demystifying some myths about IEM technology, discusses why we each tend to favor a brand and/or types of IEMs that we do, and digs into changes with the Earthworks mic lineup over last few years. This episode is sponsored by Allen & Heath and RCF.When Mike isn't selling microphones (as a management coach and consultant for Earthworks) and serving as the executive director of the In-Ear Monitor International Trade Organization, he writes and speaks about “What Entertainers Can Teach Executives” and “Why Nobody Likes Networking.” He offers personalized experiential keynotes and workshops for conference and event attendees.In fact, Mike is generously offering his “Nobody Likes Networking” workshop — which he's previously charged $50 per student — for free to Signal to Noise listeners. The online workshop will take place as three short sessions on Monday 8/19, 8/26, and 9/2 at 2 pm U.S. ET. See below for details on the workshop and how to sign up, and we hope to see you there!

Jayson Street — Chief Adversarial Officer at Secure Yeti, a DEF CON Groups Global Ambassador, and a world-class awkward hugger Jayson Street, the dynamic Chief Adversarial Officer at Secure Yeti, has worn many masks throughout his life and career. He was once named a “World-Class Hacker” on the National Geographic series "Breakthrough Cyber-Terror," but he prefers the simpler title of Hacker, Helper, and Human. In this episode, Jayson joins Carlton Fields P.A.'s Jack Clabby and KnowBe4's VP of Remote Publishing Teams Kayley Melton to talk about his journey of self-discovery that led him from being an award-winning janitor at McDonald's to one of the world's most infamous ethical hackers. From his early childhood, Jayson has embraced hacking as a way of life, embodying the spirit of relentless exploration, innovation, and resilience. Like our favorite co-host Kayley, Jayson uncovered a new layer of his identity in his adulthood when he discovered that he is neurodivergent. He dives deep into how this new understanding altered his perception of himself, allowed him to embrace the various “masks” he wears throughout life, and discovered that his unique mind is actually his superpower. He also shares extraordinary stories of how he gained entry into some of the hardest-to-access cyber targets in the world. To start off the show, Jack and Kayley talk about the celebrity that's topping the Hacker Celebrity Hot List as the celeb whose name is used most by cybercriminals when creating online scams.

A lot of bands ask me about setting up a basic in-ear monitoring rig so they can hear themselves better, and use… shhh… come closer. Backing tracks (collective gasp). Here's the thing, even though holier-than-thou amateur musicians scoff at backtracking elements of a live set, when done with taste backing tracks can add impact and power to your set, without making a show “less live”! The key is not to replace what's happening on the stage, but to supplement it. For example you can add synths, piano, strings, or some extra percussion elements, all without hiring an extra member of the band (or trying to get your drummer to grow a third arm). Listen now to learn more about IEM setups and backtracking so you can make your stage show more exciting for your fans! What you'll learn: How you can add extra production elements to your set without breaking the bankWhat's needed for basic backing track usageWhy it isn't “cheating” to use backtracks in your live shotA proper mix for backing tracksWhat tools my band, NRVS, uses for backing tracksA crash course for in ear monitoringWhy extra production elements are important (and fun!) for your band For full show notes, visit https://bandhive.rocks/199

On episode one hundred and eight or Holy Ghost Notes, Matt is only days away from having a new baby girl as Tim wraps up “back to school week” and shares some exciting news. The guys talk about using earplugs for sleeping and talk a little about the IEM company, Ultimate Ears, and their experience with both the products and the company. After a longer than average intro, they head into their drum topic; touching on the importance of spending time watching (or observing) how other drummers play and how it can benefit your own drumming in many ways. Matt talks about staying home from August Burns Red's Australian tour which inspires the topic of FOMO (Fear of Missing Out). Through many a divergence from the root topic, in typical fashion, they uncover many parallels that round out the discussion.

Mike Dias the executive director for the In-Ear Monitor International Trade Organization ( IEMITO) and the vice president of sales for Earthworks Audio joins us on episode 213 to talk about the story and history of in-ear monitors. While this is not a complete breakdown of the full history of IEM's, Mike sets the table for the plotline of the documentary he is working on. Weaving together the storylines of the influence and impact that everyone from musicians, audio engineers, manufacturers, and consumers have played into where we are today. They discuss the new frontier of immersive mixing and the impact it may have, along with some networking advice and more.Mike Dias, known throughout the industry as an expert on in-ear monitors, created the In-Ear Monitor International Trade Organization in an effort to bring together in-ear manufacturers, dealers, suppliers, sound engineers and end-users. The goal of the organization is to be a repository of unbiased information and to serve as a directory for all members while promoting the uses and benefits of in-ear monitors.As a professional in the Pro-Audio/Consumer Electronics space for nearly 20 years, Mike joined Ultimate Ears Pro in 2004 as Director of Marketing and Communications. He learned the industry while working for Jerry Harvey in the very early days of Ultimate Ears. He helped launch the original and successful super.fi universal in-ear lines when less than 1% of retail headphone sales were over the $79 price point. He later became global Sales & Marketing Director for Logitech, the parent company of Ultimate Ears.When he is not advocating for in-ear monitor use, Mike is an in-demand speaker who talks about customer relationship management philosophies and optimizing sales processes. His favorite topics are Why Nobody Likes Networking and What Entertainers Can Teach Executives.Additional info and links discussed on the episode :Here's more about IEMITOAnd here's more on Networking - Mike Dias personal site Networking from 6 Feet Sounding Board Series  Industry talks Mike Dias gave on Networking.  3-part series for AES NAMM on the Ideas Center Stage.Join our Discord Server and our Facebook Group, and Follow us on InstagramPlease check out and support The Roadie Clinic, Their mission is simple.
