Jed Brewer is the president and founder of Good Loud Media, a nonprofit organization that uses music and video to drive social impact in underserved communities around the world. In this episode, Jed describes how Good Loud Media operates by bringing together Grammy-winning musicians, renowned psychologists, and subject matter experts to create targeted media campaigns. Jed explores the concept of empathy in leadership and violence prevention. He explains how mass violence stems from a "death of empathy" where people demonize their enemies, and how perspective-taking through music can help restore human connection even in conflict zones. Jed shares his approach to networking as a superpower for creating change. He emphasizes that success is always a team effort and encourages leaders to view their network as the foundation of any meaningful impact. Listen to this episode to discover how music can be engineered to solve complex social problems and learn practical strategies for building powerful networks that drive systemic change. You can find episode 476 on YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts! Watch this Episode on YouTube | Key Takeaways [02:23] Jed reveals something people can't find about him online, that he grew up playing in rock bands and learned at 14 that "music has the power to bring us together" and can "create a place where people feel welcome when they don't feel welcome in other places." [03:36] Jed explains his journey from being a preacher's kid to prison chaplain and also describes how his passion developed through the fusion between music and technology that led him to study engineering while maintaining his love for music, understanding that "technology is a way to drive that forward." [07:02] Jed explains how he got into prison outreach and outlines his startup experience. He reveals a breakthrough discovery. [13:07] Jed explains the business case for underserved populations, noting that pharmaceutical companies are "leaving money on the table" because potential customers aren't aware of life-saving products like HIV medications that "could be using these products." [15:47] Jed connects his faith background to his mission, explaining that his personal faith centers on "love your neighbor as yourself" and finding ways to "reduce human suffering." [17:03] Jed explains how he brings high-caliber people together and he describes the Narcan project. Jed identifies the messaging challenge where some people viewed Narcan as "something that drug users would have" he also outlines his collaborative process where he works with subject matter experts. [24:27] Jed describes distribution strategy where they put the song "everywhere" - radio, social media, and in-person community outreach - celebrating most when "people amplify it to their own network." [26:54] Jed explains his international focus where he started building relationships with creatives worldwide for cost-effective production and he reveals their focus on preventing mass violence. Jed describes their Nigerian mental health success where they embedded therapeutic breathing exercises in music. [32:57] Jed explains music's unique power, noting that unlike speeches that tell people what to think, music tells them "what to think and how to feel at the same time" because "people don't have their guards up about music." [35:48] Jed defines empathy through perspective taking, explaining that empathy begins with consciously thinking "what would it be like to be this other person" and seeing enemies as human beings, even those you disagree with. [40:18] Jed emphasizes networking importance, stating "Your network is your net worth" and "I don't think anybody succeeds alone" because success is always team success, so "the question is, who's on your team?" [44:25] Jed describes his leadership transition where Good Loud Media is shifting from him "doing everything" to "setting other people up to be the people that are doing things" as they expand internationally. [47:27] Jed delivers his closing call to action, saying "You have a vision in your head of something that you can do to make the world a better place... Do it. Now is the time... The world needs you." [49:10] And remember...“Where words fail, music speaks.” - Hans Christian Andersen Quotable Quotes "I learned as a kid that music has the power to bring us together. I learned when I was 14 that music can create a place where people feel welcome when they don't feel welcome in other places." "I have always been a firm believer that networking is just how we all get where we're going. We all do better when we've got the riches of friendship." "Dig your well before you're thirsty." For me, the living out of that faith has to do with love your neighbor as yourself…I think that all of us can agree that whenever possible, lessening the amount of suffering in the world and lessening the amount of suffering that our neighbors and that our loved ones face is the morally right thing for us to pursue." "I have discovered few things that produce as much genuine magic as simply asking... There's a famous phrase, you have not, because you ask not. I have learned to ask pretty boldly for things, and most of the time people say yes." "Your network is your net worth. The people that, you know, are. That is your riches in life." "I don't think anybody succeeds alone... I think that success is always team success." "You're telling them what to think and how to feel at the same time. Music is a guided meditation that has both a cognitive and an emotive aspect happening in parallel."In mass violence, there's a death of empathy." "The only way forward is to see our enemies as human beings. And that really is what empathy is." "I think empathy in many ways begins and ends with perspective taking." "There are different seasons in life and there are different phases, and we pass in and out of them." "You have a vision in your head of something that you can do to make the world a better place. I know you do... Do it. Now is the time. Not next week, not next year. Do it. Get started. It won't get easier. The best time to do it is right now.We need you. Get to work. This is your moment, the sign you've been waiting for. This is that sign. Get started with your thing that's going to make the world a better place."

Si Jed Martin, el protagonista de esta novela, tuviera que contarles la historia, quizá comenzase hablándoles de una avería del calentador, un 15 de diciembre. O de su padre, arquitecto conocido y comprometido, con quien pasó a solas muchas noches navideñas. Evocaría, desde luego, a Olga, una rusa muy bonita, a la que conoce al principio de su carrera en la exposición inaugural de su obra fotográfica. Esto sucede antes de que llegue el éxito mundial con la serie de «oficios», retratos de personalidades de todos los sectores (entre ellas el escritor Michel Houellebecq), captados en el ejercicio de su profesión. También debería referir cómo ayudó al comisario Jasselin a dilucidar un caso criminal atroz, cuya aterradora puesta en escena dejó una impronta duradera en los equipos de la policía. Al final de su vida, Jed alcanzará cierta serenidad y ya sólo emitirá murmullos. El arte, el dinero, el amor, la relación con el padre, la muerte, el trabajo, Francia convertida en un paraíso turístico son algunos de los temas de esta novela decididamente clásica y abiertamente moderna. «El mérito debe atribuirse al formidable artefacto literario, que nunca rechina, y a la alta calidad de la prosa, que mantiene el pulso de la primera a la última línea»

With the Cubs tumbling towards the playoffs and the Bears ready to kick off it's a perfect time to catch up with The Athletic's Jon Greenberg. We talk about Boog skipping out on the Yeti Yard, Jed signing old guys to make up for whatever that was at the trade deadline, Carter looking forward to 2032, and whether the Cubs are more or less likely to sign Kyle Tucker now that his asking price is bound to come down. We also talk Petecrow's lack of rest, Tucker's calf and the glorious return of Billy Hamilton. And, Jon says Ben Johnson is "pretty normal for a football coach," and a redass with a heart of gold, realistic expectations for Caleb, and how much less awkward every press conference is. Is Ryan Poles the weak link, and we joke about Kevin Warren doing...anything. All that, and more.

In this heartfelt episode of Reading With Your Kids, host Jed Doherty welcomes two inspiring guests who are changing the way we talk to kids about life's toughest moments. First up is Dr. Arian Hatefi, author of the debut middle grade novel A Seal Upon the Heart. Arian shares how his own cancer diagnosis at 37—and the wisdom of Viktor Frankl's Man's Search for Meaning—inspired him to write a story for his children about love, loss, and finding meaning even in the hardest times. Arian opens up about the importance of being present, the power of storytelling, and why kids deserve honest conversations about grief and mortality. He also discusses how his book, based on his own family, helps children process difficult emotions and encourages parents to use stories as a bridge to deeper discussions. Next, Jed chats with Dr. Letishia Jefferson (Dr. J), pediatrician and author of Zoe's Day with Dr. J, along with illustrator Bonnie Bright. Dr. J reveals how her experiences in the clinic—and as a mom—motivated her to create a book that eases kids' anxiety about doctor visits. She offers practical tips for parents to prepare their children for medical appointments and highlights the benefits of reading together, from building early literacy skills to strengthening emotional bonds. Bonnie shares her creative process and the importance of representation in children's books, ensuring all kids can see themselves as heroes. Whether you're looking for ways to talk to your kids about grief, illness, or just want to make doctor visits less scary, this episode is packed with wisdom, warmth, and actionable advice. Tune in for moving stories, expert insights, and a celebration of the power of children's literature to help families grow closer and stronger.
