The central theme of this podcast episode revolves around the profound influence of familial inspiration on one's artistic journey, as exemplified by the speaker's desire to emulate her mother. The speaker reflects on her early experiences in kindergarten, where a nascent interest in performance ignited a lifelong passion. She recounts her formative years, characterized by a yearning to mirror her mother's artistic endeavors, which ultimately shaped her aspirations. Throughout the discourse, we explore the complexities of self-expression, the challenges of peer perception, and the significant role of encouragement from loved ones in fostering creativity. This conversation encapsulates the intricate interplay between personal history and artistic development, illustrating how one individual's journey can resonate universally.Takeaways: The initial inspiration for pursuing a career in the arts stemmed from a profound admiration for one's mother, who served as a role model throughout formative years. Experiences in school often involved being both celebrated for musical talents and subsequently criticized, which led to complex social dynamics with peers. The journey into music composition began unexpectedly, highlighting that creativity can emerge from the most mundane activities, such as cleaning the house. Art school provided a unique environment filled with like-minded individuals, fostering a sense of community and collaboration among aspiring artists and performers. Learning the importance of understanding personal strengths and weaknesses was emphasized during education, shaping future collaborations and artistic endeavors. Despite a passion for music, formal instruction did not encompass songwriting, prompting a self-directed exploration of musical creation later in life.

Tonight on Veritas... our special guests are Jeffrey Stegman and Clayten Stedmann. Most of us move through life believing we're in command of our thoughts—our decisions, our reactions, even our moods. But beneath the surface, there are forces at work. Quiet forces. Old patterns. Inherited beliefs. Residual energy from childhood... or something even older. Fields of consciousness that stretch beyond the walls of the mind and seep into our daily lives. You walk into a space and feel something shift. Maybe it's subtle. A heaviness. A sudden rush of emotion. The body reacts before the mind can rationalize. That sensation, that instinct... is trying to tell you something. What if some of what you think and feel doesn't even belong to you? What if that inner voice echoing in your head isn't entirely your own? Jeffrey and Clayten have spent years studying the nature of thought, the impact of environment, and the unseen architecture of consciousness. Their work explores how these invisible influences shape who we are—and how awareness becomes the key to transformation. We'll explore how to recognize when something isn't yours. How to reclaim attention. How to distinguish between what you've chosen... and what you've absorbed. This conversation isn't linear. It's layered—like the human experience itself. And it begins with a single, piercing question: Are you truly sovereign?

High risk factors for stroke such as smoking and blood pressure are not equally represented throughout the patient population. These are just two of the socioeconomic influences on cerebrovascular disease. One way to view this association is through the lens of the Area Deprivation Index (ADI), a measure of neighbourhood-level deprivation, and this was the approach of the study discussed in this episode. The study evaluated the association between the ADI and the treatment of ruptured intracranial aneurysms compared with unruptured intracranial aneurysms across multiple centres. Editor-in-Chief of JNIS, Dr. Felipe C. Albuquerque, interviews Dr. Alexandra Paul¹, author of the paper: Multicenter study of association between socioeconomic status and treatment of ruptured cerebral aneurysms compared to unruptured cerebral aneurysms: insights from 4,517 patients using the area deprivation index   1.

Tune in here to this Wednesday edition of the Brett Winterble Show! Brett kicks off the program by discussing the influences and pressures of the modern era, where individuals in positions of power advocate for radical change, all in the name of equity. Do not allow these power-hungry hucksters to shake your beliefs or the founding principles of our great nation. We're joined by TJ Ritchie from the newly added TJ Ritchie Show from 7 to 9 right here on 99.3 WBT. Brett and TJ discuss some things they always like to cover on their respective shows, and what TJ has coming up on his show tonight. We're also joined by Breaking Brett Jensen to dive into the latest updates on all of the drama unfolding with the Charlotte City Council, from the indicted council member to hundreds of thousands paid out to Police Chief Johnny Jennings. We're joined by Coach Matt Doherty from Doherty Coaching to talk about President Trump's battle with Harvard regarding their support, or at least indifference, to groups of pro-Hamas protestors shaming Jewish students and even going so far as to assault them in some cases. It is also important to note that Harvard brings in Chinese students in large numbers, some of whom likely have ulterior motives. China isn't a free country like America; students from China can only come to America for college if they receive the go-ahead from the CCP.

In this episode of Vineyard Underground, host Fritz Westover welcomes Dr. Katie Gold, Assistant Professor of Grape Pathology at Cornell University, for a deep dive into how research drives informed spray program decisions in the vineyard. Dr. Gold brings her extensive expertise in grape disease management to the conversation, shedding light on how growers can use scientific data and field research to refine their fungicide strategies and protect their crops more effectively. Fritz and Katie explore the critical role of disease forecasting models, including how they are developed and validated, and why it's important for growers to go beyond the “calendar-based” approach to spraying. Dr. Gold emphasizes the value of using weather-based decision support tools and highlights ongoing research aimed at improving the precision and sustainability of vineyard disease management. Listeners will gain a better understanding of how academic research translates into real-world applications, from identifying pathogen resistance patterns to making timely fungicide applications.

Sonnie Trotter is a world-renowned rock climber, father, husband, writer, and the author of the new book "Uplifted: The Evolution of a Climbing Life." For the past three decades, Sonnie has built a career as one of the most accomplished climbers of his generation— pushing standards, putting up first ascents, and bringing a sense of creativity, humility, and grit to every project he tackles. His new book is part memoir, part meditation on movement and meaning, and it's one of the most thoughtful and grounded climbing books I've read in a long time. In this wide-ranging conversation, Sonnie and I talk about the unexpected ways writing has shaped his life, how his approach to climbing has evolved over the years, and what it's been like to move from living out of a van to raising a family in the mountains of Canada. We also discuss how he's stayed grounded throughout his career, his relationship with sponsors like Patagonia, and why gratitude— not rage or ego— has been the driving force behind his decades of commitment to climbing. Sonnie also opens up about how parenting has shifted his perspective on adventure, freedom, and ambition—and how he and his wife are raising their kids in a way that emphasizes curiosity, effort, and joy. Whether you're a climber, a writer, a parent, or just someone trying to live a meaningful life, there's a ton of wisdom in this one. Sonnie's new book "Uplifted" is out now, and I highly recommend picking up a copy—you'll find a link in the episode notes, along with links to everything else we discussed.

Do people drive less because they live in buildings that don't provide parking, or do they live in buildings that don't provide parking because they drive less? That question has huge implications for how we build and rebuild our cities, yet researchers have struggled for decades to answer it conclusively. UCLA professor Adam Millard-Ball joins us to discuss new research that finally — we hope — puts the question to bed. Taking advantage of San Francisco's affordable housing lottery, Millard-Ball and colleagues find that (as-good-as-)randomly assigning tenants to different buildings and neighborhoods has substantial impacts on their transportation choices, with lower parking ratios resulting in less driving and more transit use. We talk about what this means for housing and parking policy, and what it says about the behavioral shifts needed to make cities more affordable, accessible, and sustainable.Show notes:Millard-Ball, A., West, J., Rezaei, N., & Desai, G.
