Episode No. 708 features artist Paul Pfeiffer. The Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago is showing the retrospective "Paul Pfeiffer: Prologue to the Story of the Birth of Freedom." For over 25 years, Pfeiffer has investigated spectacle and mass culture, especially sport, and has found within it the power to create and extend political narratives. Included within the exhibition is only the second US presentation of Pfeiffer's landmark 2007 The Saints, an immersive sound and video installation that considers the 1966 men's World Cup final between England and West Germany that is one of the most significant works of the 21st century. "Pfeiffer" was curated by Clara Kim and Paula Kroll. The MCA presentation, which is on view through August 31, was organized by Bana Kattan with Iris Colburn. The exhibition catalogue was published by the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, and MACK. Amazon offers it for $65. Instagram: Paul Pfeiffer, Tyler Green.

In this episode, host Josh Baer speaks with Madeleine Grynsztejn, director of the MCA Chicago. In part one of the conversation, Baer and Grynsztejn discuss the past, present, and future of the MCA, Grynsztejn's experience becoming a museum director after years as a curator, and how the MCA is pursuing its mission to be a “hyperlocal museum with global reach.” Then, tune in as Grynsztejn and Baer tackle Chicago's vibrant art scene and how the MCA integrates local culture into its programming, including through a new expansion into performance art; and, how the MCA is holding its principles firm in response to challenges facing public institutions and museums.

Today on the Rarified Heir Podcast, we are talking to novelist  Matthew Specktor, whose new book, The Golden Hour: A Story of Family and Power in Hollywood, is out now and getting rave reviews. Matthew spoke to us about growing up behind the scenes in Hollywood as the son of an icon of the film industry, Fred Specktor, a super-agent of A-list Hollywood talent who is still going strong at 92 years old. With a roster of clients that included everyone from Robert DeNiro, Gene Hackman, Morgan Freeman, Helen Mirren, Danny Devito and many, many more, Matthew was brought up in and around the film business and had a firsthand look. Part memoir, part biography, part cultural history & part fiction, The Golden Hour has been priases in outlets such as NPR, the New York Times, the Kirkus Review, the LA Times and many more for it's unique look into Hollywood and the battle between art vs. commerce and much more. As this is his third book based on his take on Hollywood, Matthew is getting name-checked alongside iconic LA based, Hollywood centric authors such as Joan Didion and William Goldman and getting praise from authors like Jonathan Lethem and Griffin Dunne. High praise indeed. We get into that as well as how Matthew formed the book and the basis of his exploration into his family and the city formed him, shortly. Matthew's behind-the-scenes stories of how Hollywood was created in the second half of the twentieth century at Tinseltown institutions like MCA, William Morris and CAA beginning in the 1950s and where we are today, 70 years later a a large part of this episode. But we also hear personal stories about pranks the pre-rat pack played on him and his best friend Renee Estevez (daughter of Martin Sheen) in high school, what LA restaurants his family ate on special occasions, the cars and vanity plates of super agents in the City of Angelss and the movie theaters and books that shaped his youth on the Westside of Los Angeles. This is the Rarified Heir Podcast and if you've never had David Lynch tell you, you were more an artist than a deal maker at 13, take a listen because Matthew Specktor has. Everyone has a story.

Ill Communication, released in 1994, marked a high point for the Beastie Boys, blending their signature irreverent style with genre-hopping experimentation. The album saw the trio—Mike D, MCA, and Ad-Rock—seamlessly fuse hardcore punk, jazz-funk, and old-school hip-hop, with the standout single “Sabotage” becoming an anthem of the era. Its explosive bassline, distorted guitars, and aggressive delivery captured the Beasties at their rawest and most innovative. At the same time, tracks like “Sure Shot” and “Root Down” paid homage to their b-boy roots with tight rhymes and slick DJ work from Mix Master Mike. The album wasn't just about sonic chaos—it carried deeper, more mature undertones, reflecting MCA's growing interest in Buddhism and activism. For many fans—and clearly for us here at Totally 80's and 90's Recall—Ill Communication stands as a definitive '90s album that refused to be boxed in. It's wild, funny, political, and endlessly replayable. From punk mosh pits to chill jazz instrumentals like “Sabrosa,” the Beastie Boys proved they weren't just rap pranksters from the '80s—they were legit musical craftsmen. The album captured the eclectic energy of the decade and the spirit of reinvention that defined the Beasties' career. Whether you're blasting “Sabotage” in your car or grooving to the funky vibes of “Flute Loop,” this one hits as hard now as it did in ‘94.

Retired Intelligence Detective Gary Jenkins brings you the best in mob history with his unique perception of the mafia. In this episode of Gangland Wire, host Gary Jenkins interviews the prolific chronicler of the American Mafia, Jeffrey Sussman. Listeners will learn about Morris levy and the mafia's influence on the roots of the world's most important cultural influences, American Rock and Roll. Two of the most important men who influenced the rise of rock and roll were Morris Levy and Alan Freed. Levy had close ties with the Genovese crime family. Levy was the notorious head of the record label Roulette Records. Reportedly, Morris Levy used illicit money from the family to fund his businesses, with several members of the mob said to be present at his meetings. At the time, Freed and other corrupt Disc Jockeys corrupted the entire industry with their "pay for play" of records, which became known as "Payola." Morris Levy terrorized young performers into giving up thier royalities. Meyer Lansky, AKA the “mob's accountant,” was one of the most successful mafiosos in history and had many investments in jukeboxes. Reportedly, he “controlled every Wurlitzer jukebox in the New York area”. So too, did the Chicago Outfit (who rose to power under Al Capone) have many dealings with Lansky and his jukeboxes. A mob history book, The Outfit, argues that the Wurlitzer Corporation accused Lansky and his Chicago associates of disrupting the distribution of Wurlitzer jukeboxes. The Outfit is also said to have worked closely with Jules Stein, head of the Music Corporation of America. Apparently, Stein, the mob, MCA, and Meyer Lansky had all worked at least in some form with the mob fixer Sidney Korshak, a prominent mafia name in Los Angeles.

Spiritual Kinship, Artist-Run Futures, and Burning the Art World Down (Gently) - Cat Gunn In this episode of What's My Thesis, Javier Proenza welcomes Cat Gunn—artist, curator, and co-organizer of Other Places Art Fair South (OPAF South)—for a wide-ranging conversation on community, creative identity, and the radical possibilities within artist-run spaces. Rooted in their early relationship to art and shaped by their current role in the San Diego-based initiative Harvest and Gather, the dialogue illuminates the power of collaborative curation and experimental presentation. Gunn shares the ethos behind Harvest and Gather's programming, which includes boundary-pushing moments such as a bonfire where artwork is ceremoniously burned—a powerful gesture of impermanence, intention, and spiritual offering. As OPAF South emerges as a new chapter of the long-running artist-run platform Other Places Art Fair, Gunn reflects on mentorship, shared resources, and the liberatory potential of decentralized arts infrastructure. With detours through magic, conceptual art, regional aesthetics, and the politics of visibility, Proenza and Gunn discuss what it means to make and sustain art outside of market logic. Topics include: Cat Gunn's transition from drawing and animation to curation and community-based practice The philosophy and provocations behind Harvest and Gather How artist-run spaces function as spiritual and political interventions San Diego's evolving art ecosystem and Gunn's collaboration with MCA on OPAF South Queerness, geography, and the differences between art scenes in Baltimore, Miami, L.A., and beyond The sustainability of DIY and underground creative labor in a post-pandemic landscape For those compelled by the invisible architectures of care, resistance, and ritual in contemporary art, this episode offers an inspired look into what's being built just outside the spotlight.

Many restaurant operators are unknowingly signing their businesses away with predatory merchant cash advances (MCAs). These high-cost financing options promise fast money but come with crippling repayment terms that can put restaurants out of business. In this episode, we break down: What MCAs really are and why they're dangerous How POS companies and third-party apps market these loans The long-term financial risks of taking an MCA What better financing options exist for restaurant operators If you're considering quick funding, listen to this episode first—you might save your business.   Show Notes In this episode, we uncover the hidden risks of merchant cash advances (MCAs)—a form of financing that is marketed as fast and easy but often leads to financial ruin for restaurants. Unlike traditional loans, these cash advances are structured as purchases of future credit card receivables, making them expensive, aggressive, and difficult to escape. Many struggling restaurants turn to MCAs in times of financial distress, only to find themselves buried under exorbitant repayment terms that accelerate their path to closure. We break down why these loans are dangerous, how they differ from traditional financing, and what you should do instead. Key Takeaways What Are Merchant Cash Advances (MCAs)? MCAs aren't loans—they're structured as purchases of future credit card receivables. Funds are repaid daily, based on a percentage of your sales, often leading to crippling cash flow problems. Effective interest rates can be well over 100%, making it nearly impossible to get ahead. How Restaurants Get Trapped in MCAs MCAs target struggling restaurants with promises of fast, no-hassle funding. POS systems and third-party platforms (like DoorDash) market these loans directly to operators. The focus is on how quickly you can get the money, not on the devastating repayment structure. The Long-Term Impact of Taking an MCA Payments are automatically deducted, reducing your ability to cover operating expenses. Defaulting can trigger harsh legal and financial consequences, including personal liability. Many operators end up in a cycle of taking multiple MCAs just to stay afloat, leading to business failure. Why 2024 Is a Critical Year for Restaurants Rising costs, labor shortages, and consumer uncertainty have made it the toughest year for restaurants since early 2020. Many operators desperately seek financing, making them more vulnerable to predatory lenders. Instead of relying on expensive, short-term cash, restaurants must focus on financial planning and sustainable growth.

There's something going on in the art world. Works are being covered up, a creator was controversially dropped, and an Oscar-winning documentary can't get an American distributor. Why is this happening? And what does it have to do with the war in Gaza?

Ba năm liên tiếp, tàu chiến Pháp đến thăm Việt Nam. Từ ngày 01-07/03/2025, tàu khu trục đa nhiệm La Provence, thuộc nhóm tác chiến tàu sân bay Charles de Gaulle thực hiện chiến dịch CLEMENCEAU 25, cập cảng Lotus, thăm xã giao thành phố Hồ Chí Minh. Hoạt động này « thể hiện mối quan hệ tin cậy và hợp tác ngày càng tăng », cũng như « cam kết của Pháp đối với hòa bình và an ninh tại khu vực Ấn Độ-Thái Bình Dương », theo thông cáo của sứ quán Pháp tại Việt Nam. Pháp tăng cường hiện diện thông qua « ngoại giao hải quân »Hoạt động thăm cảng nằm trong khuôn khổ thỏa thuận Đối tác Chiến lược Toàn diện được Việt Nam và Pháp ký tại Paris ngày 07/10/2024. Trong tuyên bố chung, hai nước nhấn mạnh đến « cam kết phát triển quan hệ trong lĩnh vực quốc phòng nhằm tăng cường năng lực tự cường, phù hợp với nhu cầu của mỗi bên ». Ngoài ra, « Việt Nam sẽ tạo thuận lợi cho các tàu quân sự của Pháp cập cảng Việt Nam theo quy định của pháp luật Việt Nam, nhằm phát triển hợp tác và trao đổi chuyên môn giữa hải quân và lực lượng cảnh sát biển hai nước ».Trả lời RFI Tiếng Việt ngày 28/02, nhà nghiên cứu Pháp Laurent Gédéon, trường Sư phạm Lyon (Ecole normale supérieure de Lyon), nhận định những diễn biến tích cực này được thúc đẩy thêm sau khi Hà Nội và Paris tỏ thiện chí củng cố hợp tác song phương nhân chuyến công du của bộ trưởng Quân Lực Sébastien Lecornu và dự lễ kỷ niệm 70 năm Điện Biên Phủ :« Sự hiện diện của tàu khu trục Pháp hoặc các chiến hạm Pháp thỉnh thoảng đi qua và dừng lại ở Việt Nam gắn liền với điều có thể gọi là « ngoại giao hải quân », tức là hiện diện tại cảng của các quốc gia có quan hệ tích cực và hữu nghị. Theo tôi, ngoài khuôn khổ Việt Nam, cần phải coi rằng Pháp tham gia vào chiến lược do Hoa Kỳ phát triển trong khu vực, bao gồm việc tái khẳng định sự hiện diện của Hải Quân Mỹ và các đồng minh, đặc biệt là ở Biển Đông, trước những tuyên bố bá quyền của Trung Quốc đối với khu vực hàng hải này.Theo tôi, nếu nhìn xa hơn một chút về sự hiện diện và sự tham gia của Pháp vào hoạt động này, thì điều đó không chỉ liên quan đến các nguyên tắc về tự do hàng hải trên vùng biển quốc tế mà Pháp ủng hộ, mà cũng cần lưu ý rằng Pháp có một vùng biển rộng lớn ở Thái Bình Dương nhưng không hẳn có thể kiểm soát được hết bằng những phương tiện quân sự hiện có. Vì vậy, Paris cần sự ủng hộ của Washington. Và việc Paris can dự vào một khu vực thực sự rất xa - ở Ấn Độ-Thái Bình Dương - là cách để Pháp đánh dấu sự gần gũi với người Mỹ và tham gia vào hoạt động giữa Mỹ và Pháp ở khu vực mà hai nước có chung lợi ích địa -chiến lược ».Đọc thêmViệt Nam : Đối tác mới cho chiến lược Ấn Độ - Thái Bình Dương của Pháp ?Duy trì hoạt động thăm cảng nhưng tránh « động » đến Trung QuốcKhi thiết lập được mối quan hệ ở cấp cao nhất trong chính sách ngoại giao của Việt Nam, Pháp tăng cường được hiện diện và củng cố hoạt động ở khu vực Đông Nam Á, đặc biệt là Biển Đông, nơi có tuyến hàng hải huyết mạch, thông qua những chương trình tăng cường hợp tác quân sự với Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore. Tuy nhiên, trả lời RFI Tiếng Việt trước đó, nhà nghiên cứu Laurent Gédéon cũng nhấn mạnh đến « khía cạnh quân sự không được làm quá nổi bật » trong tuyên bố chung Pháp-Việt ngày 07/10/2024 « để không “xúc phạm” Trung Quốc ». Cũng chính để tránh làm « phật lòng » Bắc Kinh và cũng trong chính sách « Bốn Không », Việt Nam không tham gia các cuộc thao dượt mang tính chất quân sự trong vùng hoặc do bên thứ ba ngoài khu vực tổ chức. Nhóm tác chiến tàu sân bay Charles de Gaulle, gồm tàu sân bay Charles De Gaulle (R91), tàu khu trục đa nhiệm La Provence (D652), tàu tiếp tế Jacques Chevallier (A725), tàu hộ tống phòng không Forbin (D620) và khinh hạm Alsace (D656) lớp Aquitaine thăm cảng Subic Bay ở Philippines từ ngày 21/02 và tham gia Hoạt động hợp tác hàng hải (MCA) với Hải Quân Philippines.Tuy nhiên, chỉ có tàu khu trục đa nhiệm La Provence đến thăm cảng Lotus, thành phố Hồ Chí Minh và tiến hành luyện tập chung với tàu Cảnh sát biển Việt Nam tại vùng biển ngoài khơi Vũng Tàu. Nhà nghiên cứu Laurent Gédéon giải thích :« Theo tôi, điều này liên quan đến việc Pháp là đồng minh của Mỹ, cũng như việc Philippines cũng có liên minh quân sự với Mỹ. Vì vậy, chúng ta thấy có sự gần gũi về mặt địa chiến lược và quân sự giữa Pháp và Philippines. Hoàn cảnh này không giống như với Việt Nam bởi vì Việt Nam không tham gia vào kiểu liên minh này tại khu vực hoặc bất kỳ nơi nào khác. Tôi nghĩ rằng sự hiện diện của nhóm tác chiến tàu sân bay Pháp trong khuôn khổ các cuộc tập trận chung này là nhằm kiểm tra khả năng tương tác giữa các đơn vị hải quân khác nhau. Và như tôi nêu ở trên, đó là cách để Pháp thể hiện sự can dự. Có rất nhiều quan ngại mang tính chất địa chiến lược đặc trưng với Mỹ nhưng không liên quan trực tiếp đến lợi ích của Pháp ở Ấn Độ-Thái Bình Dương. Vì vậy, đây là thông điệp gửi tới Trung Quốc, cũng là thông điệp gửi tới Hoa Kỳ, chủ yếu theo quan điểm của tôi. Và tôi không nghĩ rằng giữa Pháp và Việt Nam có sự hợp tác ở cấp độ này.Một yếu tố khác là nhóm tàu ​​sân bay tượng trưng cho khả năng quân sự và hình thức đe dọa cao. Và tôi nghĩ rằng đối với một quốc gia như Pháp, việc gửi một đội tàu ​​sân bay vào Biển Đông sẽ gửi đi một thông điệp ngoại giao rất tiêu cực tới Trung Quốc và trong bối cảnh hiện tại, điểm này không nằm trong những bận tâm ngoại giao của Paris ».Pháp bảo vệ chủ quyền ở Ấn Độ-Thái Bình DươngPháp là thành viên duy nhất trong Liên Hiệp Châu Âu có chủ quyền tại Ấn Độ-Thái Bình Dương với bảy vùng lãnh thổ hải ngoại có hơn 1,6 triệu công dân. 90% diện tích vùng đặc quyền kinh tế (ZEE) của Pháp cũng trong vùng Ấn Độ-Thái Bình Dương. Lực lượng tàu chiến của quân đội Pháp tại các căn cứ ở đảo Réunion, Nouvelle-Calédonie hay Polynésie thuộc Pháp đều tương tác thường xuyên với các đối tác. Còn những chiến dịch quy mô lớn, như CLEMENCEAU 25, được bộ Quân Lực Pháp nhấn mạnh là nhằm « củng cố và khẳng định mối liên hệ mà quân đội Pháp đã phát triển ở khu vực Ấn Độ-Thái Bình Dương trong nhiều năm ».Chiến dịch CLEMENCEAU 25 được triển khai từ cuối tháng 11/2024 và được chuẩn đô đốc Jacques Mallard, chỉ huy nhóm tác chiến tàu sân bay, giới thiệu trong buổi họp báo ngày 08/11/2024 :« Chiến dịch có bốn mục tiêu chính. Trước hết, đóng góp vào các hoạt động của Pháp và Châu Âu ở Hồng Hải và Ấn Độ Dương. Các hoạt động này nhằm mục đích tăng cường an ninh hàng hải trong khu vực và nguồn lực của nhóm tác chiến tàu sân bay. Chiến dịch cũng giúp phát triển khả năng tương tác với các đối tác và đồng minh của chúng ta (Pháp) ở Ấn Độ Dương cũng như ở Thái Bình Dương. Thông qua hoạt động này, thúc đẩy một không gian Ấn Độ-Thái Bình Dương tự do, cởi mở và ổn định với các đối tác khu vực trong khuôn khổ luật pháp quốc tế. Và cuối cùng, góp phần bảo vệ người dân và lợi ích của Pháp ở vùng Ấn Độ-Thái Bình Dương mà Pháp là quốc gia ven biển và phải thực hiện chủ quyền của mình đối với tất cả các vùng lãnh thổ hải ngoại này ».Đọc thêmChiến lược Ấn Độ-Thái Bình Dương của Pháp sẽ có lợi cho Việt NamKhông chỉ chiến dịch CLEMENCEAU 25 mà tất cả những chiến dịch trước đó, nhóm tác chiến tàu sân bay Pháp đều phối hợp với tàu từ các đối tác và đồng minh. Cho nên, số lượng hộ tống nhóm tàu sân Pháp được tăng cường thường xuyên với tàu khu trục hoặc tàu ngầm nước ngoài, như của Hy Lạp, Bồ Đào Nha, Ý, Maroc, Anh, Úc, Canada, Nhật Bản… và lần lượt thông qua ba cuộc tập trận quy mô lớn, theo giải thích của chuẩn đô đốc Jacques Mallard.« Sau khi đi qua Địa Trung Hải và Hồng Hải, nhóm tác chiến tàu sân bay Charles de Gaulle tham gia cuộc tập trận song phương thường niên Varuna, góp phần duy trì khả năng tương tác giữa hải quân Pháp và Ấn Độ. Ấn Độ là đối tác quan trọng của Pháp ở Ấn Độ Dương. Giai đoạn hợp tác hoạt động chính của chiến dịch CLEMENCEAU 25 diễn ra với các đồng minh và đối tác của Pháp ở phía đông Ấn Độ Dương. Trong cuộc tập trận La Pérouse, Pháp phối hợp với Hải Quân các nước giáp với quần đảo Indonesia (trong đó có Philippines, Malaysia, Indonesia) về bảo đảm an ninh hàng hải ở ba eo biển chính. Cuối cùng, lần đầu tiên kể từ rất lâu, tàu sân bay Charles de Gaulle và đội tàu hộ tống di chuyển trên Thái Bình Dương, trong đó phải kể đến cuộc tập trận Pacific Steller (ngoài khơi phía đông Philippines), nhằm tăng cường khả năng tương tác với Hạm đội 7 Hoa Kỳ. Pháp có ít cơ hội tương tác với Hạm đội 7 vì lực lượng này ở rất xa so với Hạm đội 5 và 6 mà Pháp thường hoạt động chung. Trong suốt hành trình, nhóm tác chiến tàu sân bay sẽ nhận được hỗ trợ của các đối tác thông qua các điểm dừng chân và hỗ trợ hậu cần, cũng như tiếp nhận đội máy bay tuần tra hàng hải tầm xa Atlantic 2 ».Đội tàu tác chiến tàu sân bay (groupe aéronaval, GAN) được bộ Quân Lực Pháp giới thiệu là lực lượng chính thực hiện các nhiệm vụ triển khai sức mạnh. Tàu sân bay Charles de Gaulle có thể di chuyển hàng nghìn km mỗi ngày trong nhiều tháng, có hai đường băng, một nhà kho để bảo trì, sửa chữa 40 máy bay. Khoang tàu có thể chứa 600 tấn đạn dược, 3.200 tấn xăng máy bay, tương đương với 2 tuần hoạt động với cường độ cao.Sự can dự của Pháp ở Ấn Độ-Thái Bình Dương còn được thể hiện qua việc chỉ huy Hải Quân Pháp tham gia vào hai diễn đàn chính trong khu vực : Hội nghị chuyên đề Hải quân Ấn Độ Dương (IONS) và Hội nghị Hải quân Tây Thái Bình Dương (WPNS).

In this episode, we're going to talk about everything financing, some of the pros and cons of taking actual lending or advances for your business, and everything in between. What if securing financing for your e-commerce business didn't mean sacrificing control or facing exorbitant interest rates? Russell Walraven from 8Fig joins us to unpack financing solutions that respect your business's autonomy and potential. We explore the tailored working capital options 8Fig offers to online sellers on major platforms like Amazon, Shopify, and Walmart. Russell also shares 8Fig's leap into SaaS, crafted to fuel seller growth and success, while addressing the challenges and opportunities in the ever-evolving e-commerce landscape. Navigating the murky waters of Merchant Cash Advances (MCAs) can be daunting, but we're here to shed light on this alternative financing avenue. Through personal anecdotes, we unravel the differences between MCAs and traditional loans, highlighting the risks and aggressive collection tactics that can ensue in cases of default. Discover the flexibility of new MCA products designed specifically for Amazon and e-commerce sellers, alongside insights on securing subsequent funding without fully paying down existing amounts. Choosing between lending and equity financing is a pivotal decision for any entrepreneur, and we dissect this complex dynamic to help you make informed choices. Learn about the advantages of retaining full business ownership through loans with companies like 8Fig, versus the prolonged involvement of equity investors. We also delve into the process of pre-qualifying for loans without impacting your credit score and the importance of building a financial partnership founded on trust and understanding of e-commerce dynamics. Whether you're in the throes of financial challenges or planning ahead, this episode equips you with practical advice to secure fair and effective funding for your online business.

In today's episode of the podcast I talk with the very talented (and highly accomplished), multi-instrumentalist/singer/songwriter -St. Paul Petterson. Among the huge list of St. Paul's credits you will see some massive 'superstar' type names like - Morris Day, Darryl Hall, George Benson, The Corrs and Peter Frampton, but the thing that needs to be brought to your attention (at least in my opinion), is the fact that at only 17 years old, Paul was hand picked by the (now late, but always great) Prince to join 'The Time' for the Purple Rain movie. This of course led to many work related affiliations with Prince before St. Paul eventually became a successful singer and songwriter in his own right with labels like MCA and Atlantic. Paul also has his own podcast (with a similar theme to this one) entitled 'Music On The Run, which I strongly encourage you to check out. For further information on Paul, The Mpls Funk All Stars or any of his related projects, please visit www.paulpeterson.com or www.mplsfunkallstars.com⁠ For all things Travis Marc or Musicians-Mentor related please visit - ⁠www.musicians-mentor.com Also, don't forget to check out our affiliate partnership with the lovely folks over at Soundbrenner by visiting - ⁠https://www.soundbrenner.com/pages/affiliate-travis-marc

In today's Mental Monday, I'm going full Brene Brown to talk about vulnerability. At our MCA retreat in the fall, we sat in a circle and shared something vulnerable. And I realized a lot of us struggle with being vulnerable because we feel like we're taking up too much space. This episode challenges that feeling, as I share my personal experience. ------- Rate, Review, & Follow on Apple Podcasts “I love Lindsey's straight forward, realistic approach to motivation and living your best life.”

In this episode of Raising Joy, we welcome Andrea Dunlop, author and host of the true crime podcast "Nobody Should Believe Me," which investigates medical child abuse (MCA), formerly known as Munchausen by Proxy. Andrea shares her personal connection to the topic, stemming from a family experience, and explains what MCA is: a parent or caregiver, most often the mother, inducing, exaggerating, or fabricating a child's medical illness for attention and sympathy. Andrea discusses the red flags that may indicate MCA, and highlights the importance of distinguishing between anxious parents and those intentionally deceiving medical professionals. This episode contains sensitive content related to child abuse. Listener discretion is advised.

For one hot moment, Broken Homes were the buzzed-about new band in LA, and big success was ahead. It never materialized. The band cut 3 albums for MCA, but they went nowhere. On this episode, we dig into a track from their first album, one of my favorite LP's from the '80's and a real "desert island" record for me. The album never came out on CD, but if you can track down a copy on vinyl, I highly recommend it. "An L.A. Rain" (Mike Doman) Copyright 1986 Learn more about your ad choices.

Episode No. 683 features artist Tala Madani and curator Jamillah James. James is the curator of "The Living End: Painting and Other Technologies, 1970-2020" at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago. Madani is among the 60-plus artists included in the exhibition. "The Living End" surveys the arc of painting over the last half-century with a particular focus on artists who have redefined painting by using new technologies, imaging techniques, and their own bodies. The exhibition will be on view through March 16, 2025. Jack Schneider assisted James with the show. The exhibition catalogue is available from the MCA for under $20. The Henry Art Gallery at the University of Washington is presenting "Tala Madani: Be flat," a solo exhibition featuring recent and newly commissioned work that explores the influence of symbols, language, and mark-making on power dynamics and individual agency. It was curated by Shamim M. Momin and is on view through August 17, 2025. Madani makes paintings and painting-informed animations that consider gender, political authority, and representation. Her work typically includes bald, middle-aged men in bizarre, often hilarious circumstances. She has had solo shows at museums such as the Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles; Secession, Vienna; the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, and the Mori Art Museum, Tokyo.

In this short podcast episode, Bryan and Mike from DITEK talk about what to do in tricky electrical scenarios, such as when the MCA is 27 and you have a 50A breaker. When you size an HVAC system for compatibility with voltage monitors, like the DITEK Kool Guard, you need to pay attention to the MCA (minimum circuit ampacity), which should not be confused with MOCP (maximum overcurrent protection or breaker size). As long as the MCA is 40 amps or lower, you can attach the HVAC condenser to the Kool Guard. The KG2 also accepts wire sizes up to 6 AWG. The Kool Guard is NOT a source of overcurrent protection; it is a voltage monitor rated for carrying current, which means ratings will be in MCA, not MOCP. MOCP is designed to deal with high starting amps and lets users know the maximum allowable current for a circuit so that it can trip properly when that current is exceeded. According to Section 440 of the National Electrical Code (NEC), motors with internal overload protection allow for a difference between the MCA and MOCP. You may find higher MOCPs on inverter-driven systems.   Learn more about DITEK at https://www.diteksurgeprotection.com/.  Have a question that you want us to answer on the podcast?
