Making Tracks with The MOST FM: Artist Interviews

I wrote this song for the Play It Strange Nationals Peace Song competition 2024 and was selected as a National Finalist. As a prize I got to work with Auckland based Producer EDY on it, and it's being released as a single under Imani-J and on the Play It Strange Album. The song is about how I feel like we are currently living in a world full of violence, hardship and suffering and about how some people choose to turn a blind eye to this because it's easier to pretend not to see it. I want this song to get people thinking and reflecting and I really hope they choose to not be blind.

In this episode I was joined by the extremely talented 1x LPGA Tour winner & star of Netflix Series 'The Short Game' Alexa Pano as we find out what she thought about her 2024 having played roughly 28 events it was her toughest one yet but highlights from 2024 include 2nd at Tournament of Champions at Lake Nona in Janaury while challenging at AIG Women's Open in August on the week of her 20th Birthday! Alexa has had an unorthodox route into the game of Golf having been a part of The Short Game on Netflix at 7 years old which focused on 2012 US Kids Junior Championship which would give her some fame, while Alexa was also a 3x National Finalist for Drive, Chip & Putt, she made her LPGA of Japan debut in 2016 at 11 years old & made her LPGA debut at 13 years old at Thornberry Classic. Alexa would turn professional at 17 years old and had success on Epson Tour in 2022 before gaining LPGA Tour card in 2023 fast forward to summer 2023 and on her 19th Birthday Pano would win on the LPGA Tour at ISPS Handa World Invitational at Galgorm Castle in Northern Ireland coming from behind on Sunday to beat both Gabs Cowley & Esther Henseleit in a Playoff.  I hope you all enjoy as Alexa was brilliant in this episode!  Be sure to like, subscribe, rate and review on Apple Podcasts & Podbean!

Daniel was born and raised in Houston, Tx. The second oldest of five kids who were all homeschooled, Daniel was always a fun-loving adventurer. Growing up, he spent a lot of time outdoors, climbing trees and playing sports. Fun fact: he wasn't very good at any of the sports he played as a kid. He just loved being active and was competitive enough to not quit when things got tough. During his high school years his focus turned to new passions such as singing, dancing, acting and the performing arts. He also became more involved in his home church through music ministry.After graduating high school, he attended a two-year ministry school and received an associates degree and simultaneously began coaching & training at Iron Sports Ninja Gym. In 2015 he began his rookie year competing on season 8 of American Ninja Warrior and thus his journey to becoming one of the top athletes on the show. That season launched him into his athletic career with accomplishments like 8 x National Finalist and title of 2020 Champion of American Ninja Warrior. He was also selected to compete on multiple All-Stars episodes as well as multiple USA VS. The World competitions. He was a team captain of seasons 1-3 of Ninja vs. Ninja and even had the opportunity to travel abroad to compete internationally in Ninja Warrior Indonesia representing team USA.This recognition and success gave Daniel opportunities to begin traveling and become a motivational speaker. His goal is to use his platform to help inspire people to get back up when they inevitably fall or fail, overcome the obstacles they will face in life and never stop pursuing their God-given dreams.

Our core ReFlow™ technology uses a simple finger depression of a soft silicone dome located under the patient's scalp to produce a noninvasive, one-way flush of the patient's own CSF directed toward the ReFlow™ catheter to restore or increase CSF flow through a non-flowing shunt and potentially avoid emergency surgery.  Learn More     The name Anuncia comes from Panthera Uncia, the species name of the snow leopard. These animals live in mountainous regions of Asia and have been called by the World Wildlife Foundation “Guardians of the Headwaters” as they roam the headwater areas of the western basins. The origin of the word hydrocephalus comes from the Greek hudrokephalon, from hudro ‘water'+ kephalē ‘head'. The snow leopard, or Guardian of the Headwaters, is a symbol of Anuncia's dedication to improve daily quality of life for the millions of underserved patients with hydrocephalus and other CSF disorders, as well as their families, who suffer from the clinical, economic, and emotional burden of repeat revision brain surgery due to VP shunt occlusions.      Full Show: HERE       2nd Half – Clip from:  Cell Based Collagen from Jellatech + BRT 2.2021 - Best of Tech 2021 BRT S02 EP13 (60) 03-28-2021   Guests: Stephanie Michelsen, Co-Founder / CEO Jellatech https://www.jellatech.com/   Stephanie Michelsen, founder and CEO of Jellatech, aims to use biotechnology to synthesize animal proteins - without killing the animals. This includes collagen and gelatin produced from animal cell lines and cultured in giant bioreactors to be used in food, pharma and cosmetic applications. Jellatech has raised $2.1 million. The Raleigh-based startup CEO lauded, lands on Forbes 30 under 30 https://www.forbes.com/profile/stephanie-michelsen/?sh=1a4e74ed778c   Jellatech is a developer of cutting-edge technologies to produce high quality, pure, animal-free collagen and gelatin. Founded by a group of innovators, dreamers, entrepreneurs and scientists, Jellatech is on a mission to eliminate animals from the food system, making better ingredient products - starting with collagen and gelatin. Collagen is a by-product of the meat industry (protein in the body). You may be familiar with collagen from seeing it in skin serums, or with its derivative, gelatin, in gummy bears - but it's likely around you much more than you realize. This ingredient is used in a number of applications such as for food texturizers, vaccine stabilizers, pill capsules, the clarification of wine and beer, and many more.  Today, the only way to source native, functional collagen is to extract it from animals. This is what they are changing at Jellatech. Jellatech makes functional, native collagen - without animals. Cellular agriculture enables one to produce a more sustainable, smarter high quality collagen that breaks the cycle of relying on an inefficient and unethical supply chain of live animals.   Full Show: HERE       AZ Tech Council Shows:  https://brt-show.libsyn.com/size/5/?search=az+tech+council *Includes Best of AZ Tech Council show from 2/12/2023   Tech Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Tech-Startup-VC-Cybersecurity-Energy-Science  Best of Tech: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/size/5/?search=best+of+tech     ‘Best Of' Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Best+of+BRT      Thanks for Listening.

Companies join AZ bio as members, 275+ in Arizona.   Examples: Calviri with their mission to end cancer, they are working on a vaccine to cure cancer. Currently, they are doing a study with dogs. Anuncia Medical working on helping kids who have hydrocephalus. Aqualung Therapeutics Corp. dealing with acute respiratory syndrome, which is fluid and inflammation in the lungs.   They have events monthly that are free and open to the public, running state wide AZ and in Phoenix. The 3rd Tuesday of every month, AZ Bio pairs. Quarterly events, the board hosts the reception at a member site, April 2023 at the Mayo Clinic. Bigger event in the fall (Sep 2023), 8th annual AZ Bio week   AZ Bio started in 2003, with the vision that Arizona will be a top 10 bioscience state. Partnerships with the major universities like ASU and U of A - researchers and service professionals at both universities.   Seg 3 Government is an important partner, that provides financial support. Examples are Medicare research, workforce help, and tax breaks. Many organizations like this are publicly funded with government and university help.   $25 billion in funding over the last 20 years in Arizona in bio investment. Government funded $5 billion, that's from state and federal sales tax at a penny per. $112 million funding to universities in 2022. Combination of industry, government and philanthropy.   Discovery phase - university helps develop the IP and research. Technology is spun out of the university to corporate development by companies. The AZ Board of Regents owns the patents. They license the patents to companies. Then you have regulatory.   Distribution of a product. Successful products are profitable. They have a royalty that pays to the company, the university and the government. Example of this was the University of Florida created Gatorade in the 1970s and still gets royalties today.   Process takes 10 to 15 years, with hundreds of people involved. Clinical trials of any type of drug takes years.   Calviri – targeted cancer therapeutics and cancer vaccines Skysong Innovations with ASU – office hub in Scottsdale with many bio-tech co's   Regulatory test of a product through the FDA to determine if it is safe and effective. This is a very expensive process with big clinical trials. Covid vaccine was a blockbuster hat. three to $4 billion in investment.   Seg 4 How do you define success? There's a 1 in 100 chance you help the patient. What is the ROI in Arizona - $25 bill invested. ROI has been $38 billion in 2021 in economic impact.   AZ ranks about 30th. To get in the top 10 needs to be about $78 billion of economic impact per year.   3 D's – Discovery. Development, Delivery   Step 1 - Most of 25 million invested in D1, university and hospital. Easy health industry trust fund, endowment.   Step 2 – Development - $10 million a year to get to 78 billion impact in 5 to 10 years, with public and private money.   Flynn Foundation is the steward of AZ Bio with the University. They are training the work force of tomorrow.   Companies to follow – Tripp, Medtronic, Rausch Industries (private) develop and deliver, they have the capital, they take the risk, and they have the work staff. It takes decades of work, investing and R&D plus regulations.   Covid saw a great breakthrough in bioscience with the MRNA vaccine development       AZ Tech Council Shows:  https://brt-show.libsyn.com/size/5/?search=az+tech+council *Includes Best of AZ Tech Council show from 2/12/2023   Tech Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Tech-Startup-VC-Cybersecurity-Energy-Science  Best of Tech: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/size/5/?search=best+of+tech     ‘Best Of' Topic: https://brt-show.libsyn.com/category/Best+of+BRT      Thanks for Listening.
