I dagens avsnitt gästas jag av Johan Novak som generöst delar sin livsresa – en berättelse fylld av smärta, kamp och framför allt hopp. Johan växte upp med känslan av att vara övergiven, mobbad och utanför. Tidigt hittade han en identitet i det tuffa, destruktiva – från småbus till kriminalitet. Hans första flykt från känslor började med mat och socker, som senare ersattes av alkohol och så småningom tyngre droger. Han levde i en miljö där vänner dog av överdoser eller hamnade i fängelse, men mitt i allt det mörka hittade Johan en ny väg. I dag har han över 22 års drogfrihet och ägnar sitt liv åt att hjälpa andra att hitta ut ur beroende och in i frihet. Ett starkt och ärligt samtal om barndomssår, tillfrisknande och kraften i att aldrig ge upp.

Mark and Lisa Novak pull back the curtain on their 23-year journey building Novak Properties from nothing but determination and a vacant pie shop. Their refreshingly candid conversation reveals the blood, sweat and tears behind what is now a Northern Beaches real estate powerhouse.The duo dispels common myths about their business origins—no, they didn't inherit a family company, and yes, they started without experience at just 23 years old. Their early days featured makeshift operations with three mobile phones daisy-chained together, no signage, and letterheads frantically printed overnight at Officeworks. What makes this story particularly compelling is their deliberate decision to break industry norms. While competitors displayed property plaques in windows, the Novaks kept theirs empty. They installed Slurpee machines that attracted schoolchildren and a massive shark tank that became legendary in the community. These weren't just quirky marketing tactics—they reflected a fundamental belief that real estate could be done differently.Perhaps most remarkable is the family they've built along the way. Their team members aren't just employees—many have stayed for over a decade, with some leaving only to return after missing the Novak culture. Today, they're selling homes to the children of their original clients while managing $4 billion in assets with 50 staff members.Whether you're fascinated by entrepreneurship, real estate, or simply love hearing about local success stories, this candid conversation offers genuine insights into building something extraordinary from nothing. The Novak journey proves that with vision and persistence, unconventional thinking can transform industries and communities.

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge dieses Mal mit dem vierzehnten und letzten Daily von den Australian Open 2020. Der Finaltag brachte ein bekanntes Resultat allerdings mit einem eher ungewöhnlichen Weg zum Ziel. Andreas und Philipp sind sich dann auch noch nicht sicher, wie sie die Qualität des Endspiels zwischen Dominic Thiem und Novak Djokovic wirklich einschätzen sollen. Es war spannend, schließlich ging es bis in den fünften Satz, aber selten spielten beide Spieler im Finale zum selben Zeitpunkt ihr beste Tennis. Djokovic mit Schwächen in der Mitte des Spiels Wie gewohnt gehen Andreas und Philipp durch die einzelnen Sätze. Zu Anfang sah es so aus, als wenn Djokovic seinen Gegner würde überrennen können. Doch nach fünf überragenden Spielen von Djokovic fand Thiem seinen Platz im Match und war bis Ende des dritten Satzes der bessere Spieler. Thiem hatte zu diesem Zeitpunkt sogar einen 2:1 Satzvorsprung. Doch zum Ende war es Djokovic der wie gewohnt aufdrehte und weniger Fehler als sei...

In the past month, North Bay stages have been occupied by vampires, ghosts, a Thing, and Transylvanian transvestites. The Novato Community Playhouse now finds itself overrun with the most ghastly, heinous, and horrifying creatures ever to set foot on a theatrical stage. I am referring, of course, to white upper middle-class parents. They are the featured monsters in playwright Yasmina Reza’s God of Carnage, directed by Terry McGovern and running at the Playhouse through November 11. Alan and Annette Raleigh (Ken Bacon & Jena Hunt-Abraham) have come to the home of Michael and Veronica Novak (Marty Lee Jones & Heather Shepardson) to discuss the matter of a fight between their sons. It seems that the Raleigh’s son knocked two teeth out of the mouth of the Novak’s son with a stick. After a quick review of the Novak’s statement on the incident (and the decision to change the verbiage to reflect the Raleigh boy being “furnished” with a stick, as opposed to “armed”), the two couples sit down to awkwardly determine what to do next. Over the next ninety intermission-less minutes, the façade of civilized gentility will give way to tribal warfare. Reza’s play has always seemed to me to be a grade B knock-off of Edward Albee’s Whose Afraid of Virginia Woolf? If it was Reza’s attempt to show that who we appear to be is rarely who we really are, she’s at least fifty years late to that party. What she adds to that familiar trope is the omnipresence and annoyance of cell phones in our lives and a considerable quantity of stage vomit. Ah, yes, the vomit. Within the theatre community, this show has garnered the nickname “the vomit play” as there is a scene that requires (per the stage directions) “a brutal and catastrophic spray of vomit.” While it’s always interesting to see how a company accomplishes this, it’s really little more than a device to represent the verbal garbage spewn by many on a daily basis. The Novaks and Raleighs have been vomiting on each other all evening, why not take it to its logical conclusion? Have I mentioned yet this is a comedy? Yes, there are plenty of opportunities to laugh at the parents’ idiocy, but the joke is ultimately on the audience. Go ahead. Laugh at them, because they couldn’t possibly represent you. The late, great cartoonist Walt Kelly’s “Pogo” line comes to mind: “We have met the enemy and he is us.” ‘God of Carnage’ runs Friday through Sunday through November 11 at the Novato Theater Company Playhouse in Novato. Friday and Saturday evening performances are at 8 pm; there’s a Sunday matinee at 2pm. For more information, go to novatotheatercompany.org.

In this episode Tod and Joyce talk about how they seek out opportunities to show acts of kindness and opportunities to help others.

Live at Human Resources, Los Angeles, February 18, 2017 1. Geneva Skeen - Pop Song 16:48 2. Sarah Rara - Separating the Air 20:12. For the closing of Yann Novaks exhibition Repose,Novak invited Geneva Skeen and Sarah Rara to perform inside/alongside his installation. Each artist's performance was accompanied by the sound of Novaks installation demonstrated here via a room-recording from the event. Skeens Pop Song is a temporal response to Novaks drone work, and a cultural response to our times. In harmonizing with Novaks loop - divided into 3-4 minute segments (the average acceptable length of a pop song) - SkeensPop Song acknowledges that populist times call for populist measures, but refuses populist comfort, acceptance, and pale standards of beauty as means of resistance. Raras Separating the Air games of listening and learning between voice and computer at the boundary between music and speech. Each part is a device to punctuate silence, divide time, move the air.
