An underground chemist, acid-soaked sound engineers, a bestselling author, and a psychedelic band all set out together in the 1970s in pursuit of audio perfection. Together, they created and destroyed a legendary sound system known as the Wall of Sound, which was as tall as a school bus is long and more than a hundred feet wide.  Author Brian Anderson explores this wild journey in his new book Loud and Clear: The Grateful Dead's Wall of Sound and the Quest for Audio Perfection. And oh yeah, they hid all kinds of secret compartments in the speakers so they could smuggle their own homegrown Cali weed from show to show.

You ever feel like you have to be LOUD to lead? Like if you don't raise your voice…if you're not bold enough, flashy enough, “visible” enough that people won't follow you? The pressure to prove yourself… The noise of everyone trying to go viral… The demand to command attention at work, at home, in life... It's exhausting, isn't it? But here's what I've learned — from real life and from one of the most powerful mentors I've ever had... The best leaders lead with quiet conviction.This week on the Coming Up Clutch with J.R.™ show, I'm honoring one of those leaders — 19-year MLB veteran, Scott Sanderson. I'm sharing the nine lessons he taught me about true influence. These aren't cliché leadership tips. These are the real principles that have helped me lead better — in business, in my marriage, with my kids, and in life. So, if you want to lead with more power and make less noise, then this episode is for YOU. Let's get it! In this episode, you will hear: How a 19-year MLB veteran taught me to lead with quiet strength Nine transformational lessons from a mentor who modeled faith, consistency, and presence Why the loudest voice in the room isn't always the most powerful one Why consistency — not charisma — is the true secret to long-term success A challenge to thank the mentors who shaped you…and become that kind of leader for others Key Quotes “Volume is often mistaken for value…but, as I continue to be reminded of, the loudest voice in the room isn't always the most powerful one.” - J.R. “Quiet leaders lead loud lives.” - J.R. “Keep thanking the people who've poured into you. And when you think you've thanked them enough, thank them again.” - J.R.

“I can't be the only one who feels this way.” That was the thought that led Kate Swenson to use her passion for writing to share her family's journey. Kate is the founder of Finding Cooper's Voice and the author of Finding Cooper's Voice and Autism Out Loud. Her work highlights that autism is a family diagnosis, and she has made it her mission to connect the community, start conversations, and give families a voice.Kate and I talk about the isolation many families feel after an autism diagnosis and how simple acts of presence and connection can make a difference. Sometimes autism makes it harder for families to leave the house and their world feels smaller—just being there, talking, and offering support can open doors again.We also discuss the importance of creating opportunities for families to spend time together. For Kate's family, that joy is found in boating—something they made accessible for her son and enjoyable for everyone. She encourages families to get comfortable hosting, bringing fun and community into their own homes when going out feels too difficult.Through her writing, her membership communities on Facebook and YouTube, and the platform she has built with Finding Cooper's Voice, Kate is helping families feel seen, supported, and less alone.#autism #speechtherapyWhat's Inside:Creating a space for autism families.Discovering leisure activities for the whole family.Finding community in the isolation of autism.Mentioned In This Episode:Finding Cooper's Voice Finding Cooper's Voice - Facebook Kate (@findingcoopersvoice) on InstagramKate Swenson | Substack Join the aba speech connection  ABA Speech: Home

If you've ever spent any significant amount of time in Italy or around native Italians, you will soon have discovered: Italians are loud. A recent trip to the peaceful Austrian Alps, in which she was confronted with lots and lots of Italians on vacation in a place outisde of Italy, brought home this reality to Tiffany more than ever before. Turns out, when Italians are in a non-Italian context, they seem even louder. Is there a genetic reason Italians talk more loudly, or is it simply because they are used to living in a loud place and necessarily modulate their voices to match? Or is there a deeper reason? Also, as an expat whose dream was once to live with and among Italians, how long does it take before your chosen people start to get on your nerves? ------------------------------------- COME TO ROME WITH US: Our third annual Bittersweet Life Roman Adventure is all sold out for 2025!

In this episode, I sit down with Dan Cinotto, a veteran of the Midwest rock and Nu Metal scene. From his early days in the Omaha-based Downshift to his current work with Narcotic Self, Dan has lived the evolution of heavy music firsthand. He's also the co-host of the podcast We Were Loud Once ‪@WeWereLoudOncePod‬ alongside Jeff Geaghan — where the two dig deep into the Nu Metal movement from the perspective of musicians who were actually part of it. Together, Dan and I talk about that era's energy, its impact on the Midwest scene, and why the genre is seeing a massive resurgence in 2025. Raw, reflective, and full of insight from someone who lived it.

Perfect for adults, kids, or babies to sleep through the night - the sound of rain can be remarkably beneficial for enhancing sleep quality and promoting relaxation. Rainfall produces a natural, rhythmic white noise that has a calming effect on the mind and body, making it an excellent tool for aiding sleep. The gentle patter of raindrops creates a consistent and predictable auditory environment, masking disruptive sounds from the surroundings and reducing the likelihood of disturbances that might otherwise interrupt sleep. This continuous sound helps to create a sense of familiarity and security, allowing the brain to disengage from stressors and worries, ultimately leading to a more peaceful and restful slumber. Additionally, the sound of rain triggers a psychological response that is deeply rooted in our evolutionary history. Human beings have evolved in environments where rainfall was a regular occurrence, signifying safety and abundance. As a result, the sound of rain taps into our primal instincts, subconsciously signaling to the brain that it's a time for rest and restoration. This innate connection to the rain's sound can help lower the body's stress hormone levels, such as cortisol, while simultaneously promoting the release of relaxation-inducing neurotransmitters like dopamine and serotonin. Consequently, the act of listening to rain becomes more than just an auditory experience; it becomes a powerful method for aligning the body with its natural circadian rhythms, ultimately facilitating a deeper and more rejuvenating sleep. In a world characterized by constant stimulation and digital distractions, the simple act of immersing oneself in the sound of rain offers a tranquil escape. The rhythmic and repetitive nature of raindrops creates a meditative ambiance that encourages the mind to unwind and wander, gradually leading to a state of relaxation conducive to falling asleep. Unlike jarring noises or sudden disruptions, the sound of rain is consistent and non-intrusive, allowing the brain to gradually drift into a state of tranquility. This process is akin to mindfulness meditation, where the focus on a single, soothing stimulus—like rain—dissolves racing thoughts and encourages a sense of presence. By creating this mental space, listening to rain becomes a powerful tool for unwinding the mind, releasing tension, and inviting a deep and fulfilling sleep experience. Sweet dreams! DISCLAIMER: Do not turn the volume up so high that you are unable to have a regular conversation. Loud sounds can potentially damage your hearing. While listening, make sure the sound is at a reasonable volume. Do not place speakers next to a child's ears. If you have difficulty hearing or hear ringing in your ears, please immediately discontinue listening and consult an audiologist or physician.

Rogers for America with Lt. Steve Rogers – Consider the situation in the 1700s, when individuals understood that their freedom and liberty were at risk. During this period, America became increasingly vocal about these issues. Those early Americans were America Out Loud because they knew the destiny of our nation was at stake. Nothing has changed. The destiny of our nation is still at stake...

In Shouting Out Loud: Lives of The Raincoats (Da Capo Press, 2025) Audrey Golden traces the history of the iconic band The Raincoats staring of the founding by Art students Gina Birch and Ana da Silva in 1977. Since the release of their seminal early records, the band has been revered by punk, queer, feminist, and indie pop artists alike.The Raincoats reimagined the nature of experimental music and DIY design, and went on to inspire Sonic Youth, Nirvana, and an entire generation of Riot Grrrl and queercore musicians. Shouting Out Loud: Lives of the Raincoats tells this story, which resonates at the heart of late twentieth century radical art, in three distinct lives of the band. In The Raincoats' first life, they recorded three full-length albums now regarded as classics and were the first punk band to play behind the Iron Curtain in Warsaw. Nearly a decade later in 1992, the band's second life took off when Kurt Cobain's love of the band catalyzed their renaissance, and The Raincoats became renowned as 'godmothers of grunge and Riot Grrrl' only to go on hiatus again in 1996. In 2001, The Raincoats reemerged in a third and ongoing iteration marked by performances in art museums such as New York's MoMA, the Pompidou Centre in Paris, and London's National Portrait Gallery. The Raincoats have and continue to be a singular phenomenon and influence for so many. Featuring exclusive interviews and never-before-seen images from The Raincoats' archive, Shouting Out Loud is the first biography of this pioneering group of women who paved the way for hundreds of artists who have followed in their footsteps and the must-have account of a legendary band that holds a vital place in twentieth and twenty-first century sonic history.

I am so thrilled to share this very special LIVE episode with you. I had the absolute joy of sitting down in London with Marisa Poster, co-founder of PerfectTed and Jake Karls, founder of Mid-Day Squares, for an unforgettable conversation about scaling challenger brands, radical transparency, and building community.

And thanks to Lucky Saint who SO kindly offering us their fab upstairs event room, we gathered 50 friends, founders, and partners for a night of storytelling, snacking, and straight-talking about what it really takes to scale a challenger brand. In this episode, we dive into:How Mid-Day Squares grew from the kitchen table to producing 150,000 bars a day.Why therapy, radical transparency, and “building a business out loud” became part of their DNA.The importance of building fans not just customers.How PerfectTed is making matcha accessible and creating a whole new category.The realities of expanding into the US market (and what's different from Canada, the UK, and beyond).Why team communication and trust are make-or-break for founders.How Storytelling fuels challenger brands.What happens when new competitors enter a category and how to stay focused.The role of product excellence in sustaining growth.The highs, lows, trolls, and resilience it takes to keep going.This is part one of our Mid-Day Squares live series. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did hosting it!Next week we'll be sharing the Q&A session, which ran for a whole extra hour and was packed with brilliant audience questions.

In Mary and Andrew's estimation, there is no effort from the Trump administration to say things softly, the quiet part is very much out loud. They begin with the indictment of former FBI Director James Comey by Trump's newly installed U.S. attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, Lindsey Halligan, noting how much these targeted charges upend the tradition of a separation between the White House and the Justice Department. The next stop is Portland Oregon, where the president announced his intent to deploy troops to the city in a Saturday Truth Social post, calling it “war ravaged”. Oregon immediately sued to stop the national guard deployment, so Mary and Andrew catch listeners up on where this stands and what to expect. And last, they turn to Trump's domestic terror memorandum, announcing his intent to investigate left-leaning groups he suggests may be funding political violence. Want to listen to this show without ads?

When the loud voices went silent at the cross, two quiet disciples stepped forward—Joseph of Arimathea and Nicodemus. This message, The Quiet Ones, shows us that God doesn't measure devotion by volume, but by obedience. Loud may not always mean loyal, and quiet doesn't always mean faithless. Everyone has a role in God's Kingdom—yours included.

Listening to black noise while sleeping can offer several benefits for improving the quality of your sleep and overall well-being. Black noise is a unique sound spectrum that combines various frequencies to create a consistent, soothing background noise. Black noise and white noise are two distinct types of soundscapes that have different characteristics and effects on sleep. Understanding the differences between them can shed light on how black noise can be particularly helpful for promoting restful sleep. Black noise and white noise differ in their sound spectrum. White noise contains equal intensity across all frequencies within the audible range, resulting in a "shushing" or static-like sound that masks other noises by drowning them out. In contrast, black noise contains a wider range of frequencies, with a stronger emphasis on lower frequencies. This results in a more soothing, natural, and less harsh auditory experience compared to the sharp and constant sound of white noise. Black noise's emphasis on lower frequencies creates a more calming and gentle auditory environment, making it well-suited for sleep. While white noise can be effective at masking external sounds, it may still be perceived as somewhat jarring or intrusive to some individuals due to its uniform intensity across all frequencies. Black noise, on the other hand, mimics the subtle sounds of nature, such as the rustling of leaves or the distant rumble of a waterfall, creating a tranquil atmosphere that promotes relaxation. Black noise's ability to create a calming auditory backdrop can help individuals fall asleep faster and enjoy deeper, more restorative sleep. It serves as a buffer against disruptive noises in the environment, effectively "blurring" sounds like car horns or household clatter. By reducing the chances of waking up during the night due to external disturbances, black noise contributes to a more consistent sleep pattern, leading to improved sleep quality and overall well-being. Sweet dreams! DISCLAIMER: Do not turn the volume up so high that you are unable to have a regular conversation. Loud sounds can potentially damage your hearing. While listening, make sure the sound is at a reasonable volume. Do not place speakers next to a child's ears. If you have difficulty hearing or hear ringing in your ears, please immediately discontinue listening and consult an audiologist or physician.

In this episode of Becoming a Bowhunter, Matty is joined by Jamie Macintosh and Hayden Reylewski. These two recently conducted a sound test on arrows, and what they found is pretty incredible. Inside this episode, we go into all of the elements they tested and break down exactly what makes your arrows loud or quiet while they're soaring through the air. The boys then help to draw the lines between their data and what that means for us bowhunters. Pretty much the sound of your arrow in flight could be the difference between an animal ducking the shot or not.  Podcast Topics: Testing Methods: How they measure bow and arrow noise with chronographs, microphones, and a backyard DIY setup that actually worksChallenges in Testing: The impact of changing humidity, shifting light, and what it takes to get results that hold up in the fieldArrow Flight & Noise: How fletching, helical twist, and nock setup all change the sound of your shotBroadhead Comparisons: Two blades versus three, long and pointy versus wide and stubby, vented versus solid, and what that means for noiseReal-World Impacts: Stories of animals jumping the string and how small sound changes can make a big differenceFuture Gear & Testing Plans: What the boys have planned for further tests, plus where you can see the data and use this information for your arrow setup.  Whether you're a gear tinkerer or just want to make your setup as silent as possible, this is one of the most practical deep dives we've ever done.

Stay tuned to find all about it and what it's so important in how Renee operates.Of course these two industry leaders in mindset dive into that topic, as well as parenting (Renee has two boys), and also how being yourself in front of your kids teaches them to be you and comfortable in their own skin.  Her humour comes through in her podcast and on Social Media and it's an interesting conversation around that ability to be light and "goofy" and even bring that into business as people trust who they know and like and what's relatable.It's an incredible listen,  and Renee and Kim really offer amazing value.Enjoy!K&JRenee's Podcast "Into the Wild!": https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/into-the-wild/id1508734916Renee's IG: @renee_warren) ----------------------www.fitzlife.ca

This special episode brings together all three parts of our mini-series: 15 Questions Nobody Usually Puts Out Loud About Healing. Across these conversations, we explore the truths that don't often get spoken — but that matter most in the healing journey. In this full-length episode, you'll hear: Part 1: The Foundations of Healing Why listening to your body is one of the most underrated healing skills The reality that not all providers are skilled or effective Why treating healing like a checklist backfires How reconnecting with heritage practices can regulate and restore The power of keeping promises to yourself Part 2: The Hard Truths About Healing Why feeling safe in your body again is harder than anyone admits Why “tough-love” doesn't heal — compassion does Why healing can feel lonelier before it feels lighter The truth about breaking cycles: it takes repetition The lie that PTSD recovery has a finish line Part 3: The Breakthroughs & Shifts The difference between surviving and living How to stop numbing and start listening to yourself Why hacks don't heal trauma, but consistency does Why grief and setbacks aren't failure — they're part of the process The single shift that changes everything: asking for support without apology

It's time for the MLS Cup playoffs to come into form, and the top of the table is getting crowded. Your Orange & Blue are nipping at the leaders' heels, but they need to look over their shoulder to see the peloton looming close, including a solid Orlando City SC team wanting silverware. FC Cincinnati rode an Evander brace to take the away leg, but Orlando's still performed well at TQL. We bring Luis from Loud & Proud Orlando to talk about the Wingless Lions and their typically strong push for the postseason. Can Orlando aim higher than last season's finish? Does head coach Oscar Pareja have the talent in their high-risk-high-reward roster build? Who will play the role of spoiler to capture all three points?

What YouTube Can Teach Us About Reinvention After 50   What does starting a YouTube channel in your 40s, 50s, or beyond have in common with launching any new adventure in midlife? A lot more than you might think. In this special episode, I sit down with Rob Moore—better known as Rob the Maritimer—who helps people over 40 overcome fear and start YouTube channels without the overwhelm. While the full video version of our conversation lives on YouTube, this audio-only edit trims out the nitty-gritty details about cameras and microphones so we can focus on the heart of Rob's story. We talk about: How to push through camera anxiety (or any kind of stage fright) Why your first attempts don't have to be perfect—in fact, they shouldn't be The power of authenticity and showing up as yourself Why age is never a barrier to starting something new The importance of patience, consistency, and enjoying the journey Even if you have zero interest in starting a YouTube channel, you'll find encouragement here for taking risks, embracing imperfection, and blooming at any stage of life.

The Ohio State Buckeyes are making a change to their game plan for traveling across the country to take on the Washington Huskies this week. Why did Ryan Day's program decide to leave a day earlier than normal, and how might that impact things during this weekend's game in Husky Stadium? In this episode of the Buckeyes TomOrrow Morning podcast, Juck Miletti joins host Tom Orr to discuss that and much more, including how Ohio State is preparing for the crowd noise they wil have to deal with in Seattle, the challenge posed by Washington's big bodies on the outside, and more.

This week, Colombia's special peace tribunal, the JEP, handed down its first sentences to the soldiers who murdered and framed civilians to boost military statistics – killings which came to be known as the ‘false positives.'   The court has ordered those who committed atrocities to work on community projects, to build works in the territories where they left scars, and to face the communities whose rights they violated, as agreed in the 2016 Peace Accord. I'll be explaining the ruling in this week's Colombia Briefing along with this week's other headlines.   To mark this historic ruling, this week's episode will be an extended and updated audio version of Emily Hart's investigation into those war crimes and the families still seeking justice – an article first published in DG Magazine - read by the author herself.   During Colombia's civil conflict, the army murdered thousands of civilians - framing them as guerrillas and criminals to boost statistics. In exchange for ‘combat kills,' soldiers received cash, holidays, and promotions. The official number is 6,402 – though many estimate that the real number is closer to 10,000.  

In this episode, I opened up my Instagram “secrets box” and read your anonymous confessions out loud. From wild nights abroad to hidden crushes at work, to the unspoken struggles of parenting, relationships, fertility, and family dynamics…things get juicy! Along the way, I reflect on the psychology of secrets, the power dynamics they create, and why sharing them can feel so freeing. This episode is raw, funny, emotional, and deeply human — proof that we're all carrying more than we let on.Watch this episode in video form on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjmevEcbh5h5FEX0pazPEtN86t7eb2OgX To apply to be a guest on the show, visit luciefink.com/apply and send us your story.

Burnout doesn't just wear you out physically—it scrambles your thoughts, blurs your focus, and leaves you feeling lost in life. Even on days when “nothing big” happened, you can still feel completely drained, overstimulated, and like you're drowning emotionally. In this solo episode of Don't Cut Your Own Bangs, I share a personal story of navigating one of those days when the noise of burnout got way too loud—and the small but powerful shifts that helped me reclaim clarity and calm. This conversation is part of my Put Down the Panic: A Kinder Guide to Stress mini-series, created to help you lower the volume on burnout, quiet the noise, and make space to hear your own voice again. Three Key Takeaways 1. Overstimulation fuels burnout more than we realize. “It's so easy for overstimulation to fuel the burnout we're trying to avoid.” Our brains weren't built for nonstop notifications, interruptions, and mental multitasking. Recognizing overstimulation is the first step toward recovery. 2. Tiny resets create big clarity. “One little notch down in the volume makes it that much easier for you to hear yourself—the truth of your own experience." Even a one-minute pause or a few minutes of “sensory white space” without screens can help you reset and reconnect. 3. Rest and repair are not weaknesses. “The break I gave myself didn't reinvigorate me—it repaired me. And that was exactly what I needed.” Repair days protect you from deeper burnout. They're just as valuable as days when you feel fully energized.

The right-wing machine wants you scared of progress, but I'm here to speak their worst nightmare out loud… If you're even remotely associated with the Democratic Party, whether running for office, helping out, or just breathing while Democratic, the GOP and their right-wing media attack dogs will label you a “far left radical.” Be proud, be loud, embrace the mantle.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
