Next Level Soul with Alex Ferrari: A Spirituality & Personal Growth Podcast
Robert James Comber discusses the ancient origins of astrology, tracing it back to the Dendera stone in Egypt and its connection to the Great Pyramid's measurements. He explains the concept of the "Star Law," which includes 36 deacons per zodiac sign, and how these deacons are linked to Greek myths, fairy tales, and biblical texts. Robert also connects astrology to the I Ching, explaining its binary code and its application in understanding the universe. He highlights the significance of the Lions Gate and the Age of Aquarius, and shares his discoveries in the King's Chamber, linking astrological signs to petroglyphs and Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper painting. Robert James Comber discusses his journey of developing modalities for healing and consciousness over the past seven years. He describes a transformative experience during the eighth Lions Gate, leading to the creation of a 250,000-word book and additional courses on quantum physics, the human genome, and astrology. Robert introduces the concept of "universal consciousness" and the eight mystical perfections from Vedic systems, such as the ability to manipulate size and gravity. He emphasizes the importance of consciousness evolution and self-organization, linking it to the harmonics of the earth and the Great Pyramid. Robert also shares his views on living a fulfilled life, the nature of God, and the ultimate purpose of life.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.

John welcomes Will Leitch—New York Magazine columnist, MLB.com national correspondent, and author of the acclaimed new novel “Lloyd McNeil's Last Ride”—back to the show to discuss the mix of sports, culture, and politics that mingle on his journalistic playground. A year out from the next World Cup, Leitch weighs in on the Trump administration's capacity to play host to players and fans from countless countries it regularly condemns; what the Thunder-Pacers NBA final says about the future of pro hoops; and why “Sinners” is the movie of year so far and Ryan Coogler is a flat-out genius. Leitch also discusses Lionsgate's plans to turn his latest foray into fiction into a major motion picture, and why Jack Lemon would make the perfect Lloyd McNeil (if he weren't dead, that is).

Would you like to learn more about numerology? Lisa continues the conversation today with our guest world-renowned numerology expert Glynis McCants. She explains how in numerology, our year of 2025 breaks down to the World Number “9.” This is calculated by adding 2 + 0 + 2 + 5. According to Glynis McCants, this is the year of family. The cycle of “9” asks us to look at who we are and how we are being. Glynis teaches how the month and day you are born, added to the World Number “9,” determines your Personal Cycle. It's a time to go inner and work on yourself. Glynis goes through each number individually to determine your outlook for the rest of the year. She talks about Life Path Numbers and how to determine them. She explains how Numerology has many different layers. She also talks about her books, “Glynis Has Your Number,” and “Love By the Numbers.” Your name also has numbers, as well as your pets' names. Glynis explains how when you name an animal, you are giving that animal energy, and you want it to be compatible with your energy. They use as an example Lisa's cat who is named “Little Man.” Glynis talks about the energy of the name and what the numbers mean. In her book, “Glynis Has Your Number,” she has a chapter devoted to the numerology of names. It's complicated, but Glynis keeps it simple. Numerology is a language. She talks about vowels in your name and what they mean. 1, for example, is about Self and 9 is about Others and making a difference. Every letter has a number. This determines your Intensity Number, which is significant. Glynis also talks about her calendar and how she determines the best dates, as well as caution dates. It's discounted now, since it's July. This is all based on vibration. Glynis explains the importance of affirmations as well. She suggests affirmations such as “People are kind and good to me and it's all I ever attract.” This can be immensely helpful and can make you immediately feel better. She also has affirmations for grief, healing and health, prosperity, and more. She talks about her Lion's Gate Retreat at Omega Institute in NY in August. They will be covering 8/8, how the Full Moon influences your numbers, and what you can do to manifest. Glynis's unique method is based on the Pythagoras Number system, which is more than 2,500 years old. Info: NumbersLady.com

On this week's Very Special episode we are very excited to be talking to GLAAD's Raina Deerwater to discuss the newly published 2025 Studio Responsibility Index - which has found that LGBTQ representation and inclusion in film has it a three year low! Raina and Rowan sit down to talk about why this might be, and what we can do to change it. The GLAAD Studio Responsibility Index (SRI) maps the quantity, quality and diversity of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and queer (LGBTQ) characters in films released by ten major motion picture studios during the 2024 calendar year. GLAAD researched films released by A24, Amazon Studios, Apple TV+, Lionsgate, NBCUniversal, Netflix, Paramount Global, Sony, The Walt Disney Studios, Warner Bros. Discovery, and their subsidiaries.

It is a privilege to welcome Reality TV veteran and writer, producer, and director James Sunshine to The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast. After graduating as valedictorian from his film school, James moved to Los Angeles in 2012 with no job, no car, nowhere to live, and an overdrawn bank account. Over a decade later, he has become a creative powerhouse in film and TV, breaking into the industry as a producer on some of the biggest Reality TV Shows of all time, including Big Brother 18, Hell's Kitchen, Project Runway, Supermarket Superstar, and Total Divas. In 2020, he wrote, directed, and edited his debut indie film Coronavirus Conspiracy during the height of the 2020 lockdowns. Distributed by Lionsgate, the satire became the first union-approved independent film shot in Los Angeles after the lockdown. Recently, James released his latest film, Killing Mary Sue. The film focuses on a corrupt senator (Dermot Mulroney) who arranges for the murder of his most significant liability, his erratic burnout stepdaughter (Sierra McCormick), only for her to unwittingly discover her natural talents as an untouchable killer. The film also stars French Stewart, Jason Mewes, Kym Whitley, and Martin Kove. Killing Mary Sue won the Best Picture Award at the Independent Filmmakers Showcase at the Los Angeles Film Fest. On this episode of The Jake's Take with Jacob Elyachar Podcast, James Sunshine spoke about his experiences on Big Brother and Hell's Kitchen, the behind-the-scenes process of Coronavirus Conspiracy, and previewing Killing Mary Sue.

Scared marketing doesn't stand out. Bold stories do. And no one knows that better than the team behind Animal, a new documentary that challenges everything you think you know about meat, health, and what drives people to change.In this episode, we're pulling lessons from the film's launch with the help of our special guest, Kevin Carter, Producer at H20 Studios.Together, we explore what B2B marketers can steal from the big screen on how to activate communities, take smart creative risks, and stop playing it safe when the goal is to stand out.About our guest, Kevin CarterKevin Carter is an experienced marketing and production executive with a track record of driving significant revenue and audience growth. Currently a Producer at H20 Studios in Los Angeles, he oversees productions, strategically optimizing budgets to achieve substantial savings while delivering high-impact content reaching millions of viewers. Previously, in Global Marketing Strategy at Lionsgate, Kevin spearheaded marketing campaigns for over 117 film and television releases, generating upwards of $100 million in revenue.What B2B Companies Can Learn From Kevin's documentary, Animal:Build evangelists, not just audiences. A film doesn't go viral because it's seen. It goes viral because people can't stop talking about it. That's how Kevin sees it. He says, “The best way is when you really create an army of people that just talk about your film without you doing anything.” For B2B marketers, that means stop chasing impressions and start sparking conversations. If your product solves a real problem, give your users the language, the emotion, and the why. They won't just use it, they'll share it.Give your team space to strike out. You can't hit home runs if you're too scared to swing. Kevin urges leaders to embrace failure in the name of breakthrough: “You have to allow your executives to have three strikeouts before a win… try some crazy things that might cause some virality.” In B2B, too many marketers are stuck playing defense. But virality, innovation, and true brand momentum come from cultures that reward experimentation, not just execution. If you want word of mouth, you have to make room for risk.Challenge the spreadsheet. When executives default to templates, creativity gets sidelined. Kevin puts it bluntly: “Do I use this templated spend calculator… or do I take a chance and try something new to break through all the noise?” Most choose safety and the result is scared content that no one talks about. In B2B, the same trap shows up in recycled campaigns and rinse-repeat strategies. But breakthrough growth doesn't come from playing it safe. It comes from marketers brave enough to break the mold. Because what limits risk often limits reach.Quotes*“The best way is when you really create an army of people that just talk about your film without you doing anything. Every one person that you market to that loves it and then tells three other people. There's so much value to that. And then you expand that out to thousands of people, and they're all sharing with other people. That is the winning formula, really.”*“You finally get that EVP role… you're just loving life, and then you have two options. Do I use this templated spend calculator that we use on films, that's probably solid… limits our downside risk? Or do I take a chance and try something new and fresh, and try to break through all the noise out there, but the downside risk is a bit higher? Most of the time, they pick the latter... I think you get stuck in. Just making scared content all the time versus making like the best content.”*“For Animal, there's been no templated spend at all, we are just doing a totally bespoke campaign. If we do another film after this, it won't be the same either. You have to look at each project and ask, what are our strengths? What are our weaknesses?... And then lean into your strengths and hopefully that carries you to the promised land.”Time Stamps[00:55] Meet Kevin Carter, Producer at H20 Studios[01:00] Breaking Down Kevin's Documentary, Animal[07:52] Marketing Strategies For Film and TV[14:51] Challenges and Risks in Movie Marketing[21:25] Rethinking Your Target Audience[27:14] Innovative Marketing Techniques For Film and TV[33:40] Creating the Documentary, Animal[35:26] Marketing Animal[40:02 Final Thoughts & TakeawaysLinksConnect with Kevin on LinkedInCheck out AnimalAbout Remarkable!Remarkable! is created by the team at Caspian Studios, the premier B2B Podcast-as-a-Service company.

Starring Sierra McCormick (American Horror Stories, The Vast of Night), Dermot Mulroney, Sean Patrick Flanery, and Martin Kove, this one's got edge, attitude, and a killer cast. This marks a major breakthrough for James Sunshine, a former reality TV story producer (Big Brother, Hell's Kitchen) who transitioned into indie filmmaking with a distinctly satirical voice. His first film, Coronavirus Conspiracy, was distributed by Lionsgate and became the first SAG-approved indie shot in L.A. during lockdown. Killing Mary Sue—shot on a shoestring budget and now an award-winning feature—cements his arrival as a filmmaker to watch.Sierra McCormick, best known for American Horror Stories and The Vast of Night, delivers a fierce, dynamic lead performance that's already generating buzz among festival audiences and critics alike."#KillingMarySue #LiveInterview #JameSSunshine #NewMovie #IndieMovie #IndependentFilm #Podcast #FrenchStewart #JasonMewes #DermontMulroney #MartinKove #ActionMovie #SierraMcCormick #NastyNeal #WithoutYourHead

What happens when you combine the brilliant mind of Ryan Coogler and a bunch of blood-thirsty vampires? You get SINNERS, one of the most original and entertaining films of the year. A theatrical feat at the box office, it's grossed over 285 million dollars since its April 16th release. It was my absolute pleasure to talk to producer Sev Ohanian about how this monster movie gem came to fruition. Sev is a homie and we go way back to our baby producer days, so it is really special for me to reconnect with him after so many years. Our meet cute story is also one for the books! Sev is Armenian-American screenwriter, producer, and founder of Proximity Media alongside Ryan and Zinzi Coogler. He co-wrote and produced (alongside his wife and producing partner Natalie Qasabian who was on the podcast back in 2019!), SEARCHING, released by Sony Screen Gems in 2018. The film grossed $75 million worldwide and sparked the sequel, MISSING. Ohanian also co-wrote and produced RUN for Lionsgate, which became Hulu's most-watched film upon its premiere. During our time together, we talked about his first foray into filmmaking - an $800 micro-budget film shot on his dad's home video camera, how his working relationship with Coogler came to be, and the trials and tribulations of shooting on location in the swamps of Louisiana. xx cg
