Basic Folk is making trouble at sea with Ani DiFranco and Carsie Blanton! Hosts Lizzie and Cindy had the opportunity to speak with the two like-minded radical songwriters aboard the 2025 edition of Cayamo, a roots music cruise. Our conversation kicks off with Ani sharing her transformative experience performing as Persephone in the Broadway show 'Hadestown,' delving into the challenges of acting and the lessons learned from stepping outside her musical comfort zone. We navigate through Ani's journey of independence, discussing 'Unprecedented Sh!t,' her first album with a producer besides herself in 23 years – BJ Burton – and what it means to relinquish control in the creative process.In Ani's memoir, 'No Walls and the Recurring Dream,' she writes about how her creativity is aligned with her menstrual cycle. She described the most creative part of her cycle as "THE WINDOW." Cindy asked all three artists onstage to reflect on how their creativity relates to their periods. What resulted was a discussion on how creativity is impacted by not only menstrual cycles, but menopause and ovulation and how that has evolved over time. The conversation also touches on the significance of hair as a form of self-expression and how societal perceptions of women change with their appearances.Ani and Carsie speak to the power of songwriting in addressing historical and political issues, emphasizing the importance of music as part of a larger movement for justice. They share insights on the necessity of community and collaboration among artists in a challenging industry, encouraging listeners to find strength in solidarity rather than competition. To wrap up, they reminisce about their parallel wild, youthful experiences and how those versions of themselves continue to influence their art today. As Ani had to leave the stage early, Carsie brought it home with an Ani DiFranco-theme lightning round.Follow Basic Folk on social media: https://basicfolk.bio.link/Sign up for Basic Folk's newsletter: https://bit.ly/basicfolknewsHelp produce Basic Folk by contributing: https://basicfolk.com/donate/Interested in sponsoring us?

No Walls is back! In this episode we answer our student ministry Brick YTH's questions about love and relationships.

In this episode, Michelle Redfern is joined by Susan Colantuono, founder of Be Business Savvy and co-founder of the Lead to Soar Network, to discuss the transformative coaching approaches needed to support women's advancement into senior leadership. This conversation focuses on how managers, mentors, and coaches can go beyond traditional coaching frameworks to build their own business acumen—and effectively coach women on these skills. By developing these critical coaching capabilities, we can bridge the leadership gender gap and elevate women leaders to new heights.Key Topics Discussed:• Transformative Coaching for Women Leaders: Michelle and Susan explore why standard coaching methods, often centered on Emotional Intelligence (EQ), fall short in preparing women for executive roles. They emphasize the need to integrate Business Intelligence (BQ) into coaching strategies, equipping women with essential business, financial, and strategic skills.• The Missing Thirty-Three Percent: Susan shares her concept of the Missing Thirty-Three Percent—the skills gap in business, financial, and strategic acumen that women often face. This gap, left unaddressed, limits women's advancement to senior positions. She urges coaches and mentors to prioritize building BQ to help women become recognized as invaluable business partners.• Practical Coaching Approaches to BQ: Susan and Michelle outline actionable coaching techniques that managers, mentors, and coaches can adopt to help women develop and showcase business acumen. They discuss the value of guiding women to interpret financial metrics, contribute to strategic initiatives, and effectively communicate business outcomes to senior leaders.• Gender Dynamics and Coaching: Susan offers insights on how gender biases in coaching can reinforce stereotypes, such as focusing on women's confidence and work-life balance over business skills. By recognizing these dynamics, coaches can shift their approach to empower women with the skills that truly drive career advancement.Actionable Insights:1. For Coaches and Mentors: Build your own BQ skills to coach women effectively on business, financial, and strategic acumen. Make it a priority to help women develop the skills and language needed to be recognized as strategic partners within the organization.2. For Managers and Leaders: Transform coaching by focusing on how women's roles contribute to business results. Encourage them to engage with business metrics, strategy discussions, and broader organizational goals to build their reputation as key business players.3. For Women in Leadership: Seek out opportunities to develop your business savvy. Understand how your work impacts the organization's strategic objectives, and learn to communicate these impacts in ways that demonstrate your value as a leader.Resources Mentioned:• No Ceiling, No Walls by Susan Colantuono• Be Business Savvy: BeBusinessSavvy.com• Michelle Redfern's The Leadership Compass for insights on BQ and leadership success.Final Thoughts:Michelle and Susan call on all managers, mentors, and coaches to step up their coaching game by integrating business acumen development into their support of women leaders. By strengthening their own BQ skills, these supporters can play a pivotal role in closing the leadership gender gap and positioning women as invaluable partners in the business. Hosted on Acast.

This week is a very exciting one in the world of AI news, as we get 3 SOTA models, one in overall LLM rankings, on in OSS coding and one in OSS voice + a bunch of new breaking news during the show (which we reacted to live on the pod, and as we're now doing video, you can see us freak out in real time at 59:32)00:00 Welcome to ThursdAI00:25 Meet the Hosts02:38 Show Format and Community03:18 TLDR Overview04:01 Open Source Highlights13:31 Qwen Coder 2.5 Release14:00 Speculative Decoding and Model Performance22:18 Interactive Demos and Artifacts28:20 Training Insights and Future Prospects33:54 Breaking News: Nexus Flow36:23 Exploring Athene v2 Agent Capabilities36:48 Understanding ArenaHard and Benchmarking40:55 Scaling and Limitations in AI Models43:04 Nexus Flow and Scaling Debate49:00 Open Source LLMs and New Releases52:29 FrontierMath Benchmark and Quantization Challenges58:50 Gemini Experimental 1114 Release and Performance01:11:28 LLM Observability with Weave01:14:55 Introduction to Tracing and Evaluations01:15:50 Weave API Toolkit Overview01:16:08 Buzz Corner: Weights & Biases01:16:18 Nous Forge Reasoning API01:26:39 Breaking News: OpenAI's New MacOS Features01:27:41 Live Demo: ChatGPT Integration with VS Code01:34:28 Ultravox: Real-Time AI Conversations01:42:03 Tilde Research and Stargazer Tool01:46:12 Conclusion and Final ThoughtsThis week also, there was a debate online, whether deep learning (and scale is all you need) has hit a wall, with folks like Ilya Sutskever being cited by publications claiming it has, folks like Yann LeCoon calling "I told you so". TL;DR? multiple huge breakthroughs later, and both Oriol from DeepMind and Sam Altman are saying "what wall?" and Heiner from X.ai saying "skill issue", there is no walls in sight, despite some tech journalism love to pretend there is. Also, what happened to Yann?

This conversation with Ani DiFranco appeared in issue #85 of Rattle and was recorded on May 23, 2024. We talked about the relationship between poetry and music, creativity and the subconscious, trauma, public cancellation and more. Widely considered a feminist icon, Grammy winner Ani DiFranco was one of the first artists to create her own record label in 1990. While she has been known as a Folksinger, her music has embraced punk, funk, hip hop, jazz, soul, electronica, and even more distant sounds. Her most recent album is Unprecedented Sh!t. Her memoir No Walls and the Recurring Dream was a New York Times Top 10 best seller, and her debut children's book The Knowing is out now. DiFranco was starring on Broadway as Persephone in the Tony and Grammy Award-winning Best Musical, Hadestown, when this interview was conducted. Find more at: https://anidifranco.com

They talk about the importance of communication, since Kristina designs in England and Margarita finishes in Lithuania, the workflow of near instant patient treatment planning, and always working with the end result in mind. Then we learn what a Dental Therapist is when we chat with Cat Edney. Cat started as a hygienist, but knew she could do more and went to get her Dental Therapist license. Now she is working to spread the word of how that role fits within the dental team, allows more (and proper) care to public, and how she communicates to the other members on the team. On September 11th in Fort Worth, Texas, the 10th annual Race For the Future (https://dentallabfoundation.org/news-events/race-for-the-future/) will take place to raise money for the Foundation For Dental Laboratory Technology (https://dentallabfoundation.org/).

We often talk about leading library services from within libraries. But what do you do if you want to provide library services and don't have the luxury of four walls? On this show Vashalice Kaaba, PhD Candidate of Information Studies at Florida State University, talks about spreading literacy, no walls needed. She was inspired by work she did in the Peace Corps in Uganda spreading literacy and saw similar needs in the U.S., so developed a project called “Library in a Box” that addresses the pressing issue of literacy access in underserved communities.

Same evening. Another vision. We have all seen the city limit signs on the side of the road as we drive down the highway. They indicate the boundaries of the city, telling us where the city begins and where it ends. These signs represent defined borders that distinguish a city from other areas around it. Imagine a city with no boundaries, no borders, and no limits. The city is what the prophet Zechariah sees in his third vision of the evening, which is meant to provide great hope and comfort to God's remnant who are in a very discouraging situation.

This week we pay homage to bands straddled the world of the 80s hard n' heavy and the 90s alternative n' grunge. These were bands that were somewhat outside of the status quo specifically in the hard rock and metal world that seemed to be playing music that was more genre and categorization-defying. Thus we created our own non-genre called; The Inbetweeners!What's this InObscuria thing? We're a podcast that exhumes obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal and puts them in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. This week we cover all 3 categories and even some bands that we played early on in the podcast. The transition from the hard rockin' 80s to the punk-edged alternative of the 90s was a time like no other, and some bands simply got caught in the middle. Go and check out these songs and the albums that they come from and enjoy some music from The Inbetweeners! Songs this week include:Naked Sun – “Psycho-Activate” from Naked Sun (1991)Funhouse – “Y.R.S.” from Generation Generator (1990)No Walls – “Naive” from No Wall (1992)Animal Bag – “Missing Out” from Animal Bag (1992)Red Sea – “Blood” from Blood (1994)The Hatters – “Sacrifice” from The Madcap Adventures Of The Avocado Overlord (1994)Loudhouse – “Faith Farm” from For Crying Out Loud (1991)Please subscribe everywhere that you listen to podcasts!Visit us: https://inobscuria.com/https://www.facebook.com/InObscuriahttps://twitter.com/inobscuriahttps://www.instagram.com/inobscuria/Buy cool stuff with our logo on it!: https://www.redbubble.com/people/InObscuria?asc=uCheck out Robert's amazing fire sculptures and metal workings here: http://flamewerx.com/If you'd like to check out Kevin's band THE SWEAR, take a listen on all streaming services or pick up a digital copy of their latest release here: https://theswear.bandcamp.com/If you want to hear Robert and Kevin's band from the late 90s – early 00s BIG JACK PNEUMATIC, check it out here: https://bigjackpnuematic.bandcamp.com/

Bosq & Kaleta - “No Walls" from the 2023 compilation album By the People, For the People on House of Afandi Records Long-time collaborators Bosq & Kaleta team up again for an Afrobeat-inspired disco funk groove.  Born Benjamin Woods in Cape Cod, Massachusetts, Bosq is now based in Colombia where he has dominated dance floors with his blends of Afro-Latin music with Disco, Funk, Reggae, House, and Hip Hop. Singer/songwriter/producer/musician Leon “Kaleta” Ligan-Majekodunmi was born in Porto Novo, Benin, and was active in the Lagos, Nigeria music scene in the '70s.  On today's Song of the Day, they convey the message, "TEAR DOWN THE WALLS." As Bosq writes on Instagram, "In Gaza & the West Bank but also all over the world. The vocals in the beginning are spoken in Zulu, a South African language. The South African people also long suffered under a racist apartheid regime that was supported until the very end by Israel and the US. She says 'open the gates here comes the elephant, open the road here comes the elephant.' Palestine will be free."

Ani DiFranco began recording and self-releasing her music as a 20 year old in Buffalo, New York in 1990. 34 years later she is widely considered to be a feminist icon. But in many ways she emerged iconic, fully formed and fearless.  A facile lyricist with a biting honesty, she played guitar with a virtuosic, rhythmic style. And she was ahead of her time as an independent artist who owned all her own masters and controlled most of the major aspects of her career. She's sometimes called the mother of the DIY movement. DiFranco has released all of her albums (over twenty) on her Righteous Babe record label.  The label has also put out projects for other distinguished singer songwriters including Andrew Bird, Utah Phillips, Arto Lindsay, and Anaïs Mitchell whose own Hadestown project was first released as an album on Righteous Babe before being transformed into the Broadway hit that it is today. Ani Difranco's most recent studio album Revolutionary Love came out in 2021. In 2022 she published a picture book for children called The Knowing which she described as “an Ani DiFranco-style lullaby, inviting young readers to ponder the distinction between outer forms of identity and the inner light of consciousness.” And she will join the cast of Hadestown on Broadway in February, playing the role of Persephone, a part she sang on Anais Mitchell's original Righteous Babe recording in 2010. So it's both her broadway debut and a fill circle moment.  In recent years Righteous Babe has released anniversary editions of Ani's early recordings. In 2022 she revisited the 1998 album Little Plastic Castle, sharing anecdotes and memories of the making of it on social media, and playing some of the songs live. Her memoir, No Walls and the Recurring Dream, was published in 2019. Here she talks about how she sees her work today (“my job is connecting with people”), her early career (“it was relentless”), avoiding being labeled or boxed in (“I feel like a survivor of labels”), her idea of success (“successful artists are not necessarily the best selling”), raising children in an era of performative identity, practicing revolutionary love and why it's easier to tell the truth than to hide yourself. www.third-story.com www.patreon.com/thirdstorypodcast www.wbgo.org/studios 0:00 Intro 12:00 Interview

Readings for the 20th Sunday in Ordinary Time - Isaiah 56:1, 6-7; Matthew 15:21-28This weekend's Gospel is such an interesting one. We hear and see Jesus presented in a unique manner not otherwise seen in the Gospel. Jesus shows resistance to the outsider. Was this a test? Was it a cultural blind spot? I don't have that answer. But what we do know and what comes through clearly in both readings is that there is no "us and them". No "in and out'. Any walls we create in our own lives must be taken down. God's house shall be a house for all peoples...not just the ones we think are in.Special thanks to Bridget Zenk for her composition and performing of our intake and outtake music. And thank you for opening yourself to the Word of God. Comments? Questions? Send them my way at pdjoezenk@gmail.com

On episode this episode, Susan Colantuono, Michelle Redfern, and Mel Butcher sit down for a discussion on confidence... What is confidence? Where does confidence come from? How do you get it? Where does traditional advice on confidence go wrong?   LINKS Book: What the CEO Want You To Know by Ram Charan Book: No Ceiling, No Walls by Susan Colantuono    SPEAKER BIOs Susan Colantuono has made it her life's mission to support the career success of women.  She is the Founder of and now retired CEO of Leading Women, an international management consulting company focused on bringing gender balance to leadership teams.

Hey There EKPO Fans! We're continuing our focus on Women First with an encore presentation of this chat with Ani DiFranco. Enjoy!-------------------On this episode of Plus One Eric talks with guitarist and folk singer Ani DiFranco, who's gained critical recognition in the neo-Americana folk world for unaffectedly blending her eclectic sound with socially and politically charged lyrics. She is also widely accredited for mothering the DIY movement in music. DiFranco started her own record label, Righteous Babe, when she was 19 and has since released 22 studio albums. In 2019 she put out a memoir, titled No Walls and the Recurring Dream, in which she details her life as a musician and activist. Last month Ani released a double single, “Do or Die” and “Contagious,” along with a music video for the former. The video promotes voting by dropping the viewer into an illustrious, quintessential display of the streets of New Orleans, to culminate with a social justice street-dance-party, ending in a silent tribute to justice by the Magnolia Bridge. The slick, Wurlitzer-decorated groove in combination with her versatile vocal dynamics provide a nifty instrumental section to compliment her message of unity and justice. Ani and Kraz talk through her recent projects, the journey to the digital age of music, and about her musical style choices and breakthroughs. Ani goes in depth on the influences that brought her to her current standing, and how she did it herself to become a matriarch for the DIY movement in music.
