Episode SummaryErin and Rachel venture to the Old West to discuss the oft forgotten 2004 flop Home on the Range. The convoluted plot, juvenile humor, and unsympathetic characters make for a frustrating viewing experience. Most critics and audience members seem to agree this movie would be best put out to pasture. Episode Bibliography#26. A Conversation with John Sanford. (n.d.).

A passel of planets will cap off this New Year's Day. All five planets that are visible to the unaided eye will be in view shortly after sunset. A sixth planet is up there as well, but you need binoculars or a telescope to pick it out. But its location is easy to spot because it's next to the Moon. As twilight begins to fade, look for two of the planets low in the southwest. Venus is the “evening star,” with much fainter Mercury close to its lower right. You need a clear horizon to spot them, and binoculars will help you pick out Mercury. Slide to the upper left and you'll come to Saturn, the second-largest planet in the solar system. Then keep going and you'll come to the largest planet, Jupiter. It's the brightest object in the night after the Moon and Venus, so there's no mistaking it. And high in the east you'll find bright orange Mars. The Moon lines up between Mars and Jupiter. It's in its waxing gibbous phase. That means the Sun lights up most of the hemisphere that faces our way, and the fraction is getting larger by the day. The Moon will be full on Friday. The planet Uranus lines up close to the upper right of the Moon. It's the Sun's third-largest planet. But it's about 800 million miles farther than Saturn, and it doesn't reflect as much sunlight. It actually can be visible to the eye alone, but only under especially dark skies. The moonlight overpowers it, so you need help to see this faint giant.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

Episode 53.1: Dungeons & Dragons, Drink Size, Passel of Hogs, Ballistas, and Ancient Civilizations

James Barclay shares the key content creation strategies that Passel uses to help busy professionals demonstrate the expertise that sets them and their firms apart. Learn about how content creation became the basis for Passel's business model, how to write and create content for your most important relationships in a way that people will love, and why a podcast is the secret business development hack that most professionals aren't using right now.   Mo asks James Barclay: When did you realize that business development was great? James' first job out of college was as a conference organizer and that's where he learned the power of selling ideas. Selling conferences in the 1990s changed once the internet became more established and James began using websites to promote them, but they discovered that brochure websites weren't very effective which led to creating content based websites instead. The skills that James and his business partners developed in creating those businesses were a natural fit for content online, but he realized that taking the expertise in his head and sharing it online was actually really difficult. That's where the idea for Passle came from. Showcasing your expertise online as an expert is crucial, especially when people are still not visiting businesses physically as much. Do something rather than nothing, and realize that you won't be great at it straight away. Run an audit of LinkedIn to see who you are connected to. Compare that list to a list of the people that give you money for what you do, and if you're not connected with the people who give you money correct that. Write short, client focused and timely content at least once a month. Your content should be easy to consume and don't outsource it. Someone shouldn't be pretending to be you online. Taking content that is already published is a great place to start. Just add your own perspective or commentary to something that already exists. Picture one of your top ten to twenty clients and write something that you know will resonate with them then publish that on a public space like LinkedIn or your blog. Ask them directly what they would be interested in, and then write content around those answers. At the very least share your company's content and provide some commentary on it. You need to be digitally active. People won't be thinking of you if you're not present in the public square that is social media. Write for one person instead of writing for everyone. Think of the people that pay you money for your expertise and then write content with one of those people in mind. They are the most likely to share your content and refer you to other people when they find it useful. That's how you give your raving fans ammunition.   Mo asks James Barclay: Tell me your personal definition of business development. Growth is all about your leading indicators. Your behaviors, values, and what you do every day are what will put you in a position to win. Focusing on the end of the pipeline will make you look desperate. With the right values and habits, you'll come up with the right tactics for the people looking to buy from you. Helping is the key to growth. If every time someone reaches out you help them, at some point they will ask you what you do and be interested in what you sell, which is way more effective than reaching out to them to buy your stuff. When someone asks you what you do, turn it around and ask them about themselves and their challenges while looking for an area that you may be able to help them, either with advice or a connection. Curiosity is an emotion that humans love to experience. By getting the other person to ask what you do twice, it increases the curiosity element. Business development is about providing a solution when the other person needs it, and this takes patience and consistency is providing value. It can be even more powerful to be helpful when the other person is unable to buy your services. One of James' key qualifiers when selling to someone is whether they like him and James likes them as well. It's common for highly analytical people to talk about anything other than their content and expertise. If you find yourself uncomfortable in a sales environment, your clients probably feel the same. Finding the place that you're comfortable with could actually be the sweet spot between you and other analytical prospects. Reach out with useful content between billable projects. Sending an asset or an idea is an effective way to keep the conversation going.   Mo asks James Barclay: What is your favorite science, step, or story from the GrowBIG Training or the Snowball System? For James, the number one strategy is the Protemoi List. These are the people in your circle that are your partners, prospects, and the key people that could be your raving fans. Having a focused relationship list is an unbeatable edge. When you invest in a relationship, people will move with you. James has had people buy from his company multiple times over multiple jobs. Your Protemoi List is a list of five to ten people that have outsized returns on the amount of time and energy you invest in the relationship. The first strategy is to simply be useful to them. Offer to take them to events with you that you believe would be helpful to them. Find content and then pass it on to people you think would find it useful. Celebrate them at every opportunity. Accelerate them and give them a platform where you highlight them and what they are doing. A personal newsletter can be incredibly powerful. You don't need thousands of people on your list for it to be worth it. Build something that is extremely accessible to them, extremely useful to them, and don't waste their time. It can take some time to build momentum, but you have to start somewhere. If you can write something useful for one person you can build it over time and create something really valuable. Consistency matters. Find a cadence that works for you and your schedule and stick with it.   Mo asks James Barclay: Tell me a story about the business development that you are the proudest of. James' challenge in reaching prospects is connecting with CMOs in law firms and working up the chain can take some time. The Passel podcast was born once the team understood how useful it is as a business development tool. The podcast gives them an opportunity to talk to their perfect prospects and gives them a chance to talk about the things they are passionate about while getting to know them at the same time. Eventually, the CMO starts asking about James and the team does and it's a great way to have the right conversations with the right people. The more fantastic content you have on a podcast, the more of their target customers become interested in being featured on the podcast. James found that short and sharp podcasts perform best. Celebrate what your guest has accomplished and give them a platform. Your podcast should have a specific theme and structure for the episodes, and understand that it's a skill that takes time to learn and get good at. If you can, provide feedback and let your guest know how many people listened to their interview. Seasons are a good framework, along with having a set of questions that you can repeat and reuse. Repurposing the asset after the fact is another great way to get more exposure. Make sure you know what the win is for the interviewee.   Mo asks James Barclay: If you could record a video around business development and send it back to your younger self, what would it say? James is naturally impatient, so he would tell his younger self to cultivate patience. You can't sell stuff by shouting at people that they should buy from you. It's not your sales process, it's about their buying process. Think about the actions that you can do consistently that will lay the groundwork for outcomes instead of focusing on the outcomes themselves. Accept the fact that you are often fighting fires and won't always be perfect at your business development habits. Having a team that can support you and keep you on track when you need it is a big asset. Make sure you are surrounded by people you trust. Set some time aside each week to track your most important things and what you got done and what's still on the list. James would always tell his younger self that the best ideas don't come when you're looking at a screen. Your best ideas will come when you're unplugged.     Mentioned in this Episode: GrowBIGPlaybook.com linkedin.com/in/jamesbarclay1 james@passle.net passle.net blog.passle.net Nathan Barry on ConvertKit, Automation and Engaging Your Audience – What You Need To Succeed (season 2 episode 43) How to Use ConvertKit to Create and Close More Opportunities, with Nathan Barry (season 2 episode 44) How to Use ConvertKit to Deepen Relationships, with Nathan Barry (season 2 episode 45) How to Hack Our Own Habits to Accomplish More, with Nathan Barry (season 2 episode 46) The Top 3 Things You Need to Implement from Nathan Barry, Founder of ConvertKit (season 2 episode 47)

Write short, client focused and timely content at least once a month. Your content should be easy to consume and don't outsource it. Someone shouldn't be pretending to be you online. Taking content that is already published is a great place to start. Just add your own perspective or commentary to something that already exists. Picture one of your top ten to twenty clients and write something that you know will resonate with them then publish that on a public space like LinkedIn or your blog. Ask them directly what they would be interested in, and then write content around those answers. At the very least share your company's content and provide some commentary on it. You need to be digitally active. People won't be thinking of you if you're not present in the public square that is social media. Write for one person instead of writing for everyone. Think of the people that pay you money for your expertise and then write content with one of those people in mind. They are the most likely to share your content and refer you to other people when they find it useful. That's how you give your raving fans ammunition.   Mo asks James Barclay: Tell me your personal definition of business development. Growth is all about your leading indicators. Your behaviors, values, and what you do every day are what will put you in a position to win. Focusing on the end of the pipeline will make you look desperate. With the right values and habits, you'll come up with the right tactics for the people looking to buy from you. Helping is the key to growth. If every time someone reaches out you help them, at some point they will ask you what you do and be interested in what you sell, which is way more effective than reaching out to them to buy your stuff. When someone asks you what you do, turn it around and ask them about themselves and their challenges while looking for an area that you may be able to help them, either with advice or a connection. Curiosity is an emotion that humans love to experience. By getting the other person to ask what you do twice, it increases the curiosity element. Business development is about providing a solution when the other person needs it, and this takes patience and consistency is providing value. It can be even more powerful to be helpful when the other person is unable to buy your services. One of James' key qualifiers when selling to someone is whether they like him and James likes them as well. It's common for highly analytical people to talk about anything other than their content and expertise. If you find yourself uncomfortable in a sales environment, your clients probably feel the same. Finding the place that you're comfortable with could actually be the sweet spot between you and other analytical prospects. Reach out with useful content between billable projects. Sending an asset or an idea is an effective way to keep the conversation going.   Mo asks James Barclay: What is your favorite science, step, or story from the GrowBIG Training or the Snowball System? For James, the number one strategy is the Protemoi List. These are the people in your circle that are your partners, prospects, and the key people that could be your raving fans. Having a focused relationship list is an unbeatable edge. When you invest in a relationship, people will move with you. James has had people buy from his company multiple times over multiple jobs. Your Protemoi List is a list of five to ten people that have outsized returns on the amount of time and energy you invest in the relationship. The first strategy is to simply be useful to them. Offer to take them to events with you that you believe would be helpful to them. Find content and then pass it on to people you think would find it useful. Celebrate them at every opportunity. Accelerate them and give them a platform where you highlight them and what they are doing. A personal newsletter can be incredibly powerful. You don't need thousands of people on your list for it to be worth it. Build something that is extremely accessible to them, extremely useful to them, and don't waste their time. It can take some time to build momentum, but you have to start somewhere. If you can write something useful for one person you can build it over time and create something really valuable. Consistency matters. Find a cadence that works for you and your schedule and stick with it.   Mo asks James Barclay: Tell me a story about the business development that you are the proudest of. James' challenge in reaching prospects is connecting with CMOs in law firms and working up the chain can take some time. The Passel podcast was born once the team understood how useful it is as a business development tool. The podcast gives them an opportunity to talk to their perfect prospects and gives them a chance to talk about the things they are passionate about while getting to know them at the same time. Eventually, the CMO starts asking about James and the team does and it's a great way to have the right conversations with the right people. The more fantastic content you have on a podcast, the more of their target customers become interested in being featured on the podcast. James found that short and sharp podcasts perform best. Celebrate what your guest has accomplished and give them a platform. Your podcast should have a specific theme and structure for the episodes, and understand that it's a skill that takes time to learn and get good at. If you can, provide feedback and let your guest know how many people listened to their interview. Seasons are a good framework, along with having a set of questions that you can repeat and reuse. Repurposing the asset after the fact is another great way to get more exposure. Make sure you know what the win is for the interviewee.   Mo asks James Barclay: If you could record a video around business development and send it back to your younger self, what would it say? James is naturally impatient, so he would tell his younger self to cultivate patience. You can't sell stuff by shouting at people that they should buy from you. It's not your sales process, it's about their buying process. Think about the actions that you can do consistently that will lay the groundwork for outcomes instead of focusing on the outcomes themselves. Accept the fact that you are often fighting fires and won't always be perfect at your business development habits. Having a team that can support you and keep you on track when you need it is a big asset. Make sure you are surrounded by people you trust. Set some time aside each week to track your most important things and what you got done and what's still on the list. James would always tell his younger self that the best ideas don't come when you're looking at a screen. Your best ideas will come when you're unplugged.     Mentioned in this Episode: GrowBIGPlaybook.com linkedin.com/in/jamesbarclay1 james@passle.net passle.net blog.passle.net Nathan Barry on ConvertKit, Automation and Engaging Your Audience – What You Need To Succeed (season 2 episode 43) How to Use ConvertKit to Create and Close More Opportunities, with Nathan Barry (season 2 episode 44) How to Use ConvertKit to Deepen Relationships, with Nathan Barry (season 2 episode 45) How to Hack Our Own Habits to Accomplish More, with Nathan Barry (season 2 episode 46) The Top 3 Things You Need to Implement from Nathan Barry, Founder of ConvertKit (season 2 episode 47)

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for November 2, 2021 is: passel • PASS-ul • noun A passel is a large number or amount of something. // A passel of work emails awaited Jon on his return from vacation. See the entry > Examples: "'He's here!' the vehicle owners cheered as 100-year old driver of a 102-year-old Buick Irenee DuPont arrived again. DuPont then handily backed his car precisely into a parking place alongside a passel of other old vehicles." — Chris Barber, The Chester County Press (Oxford, Pennsylvania), 22 Sept. 2021 Did you know? Loss of the sound of "r" after a vowel and before a consonant in the middle of a word is common in spoken English. This linguistic idiosyncrasy has given the language a few new words, including cuss from curse, bust from burst, and passel from parcel.

Passel is a noun that refers to a large group of indeterminate number. Our word of the day began as an alternate pronunciation of the word parcel, which means a large collection of things to be carried or sent by mail. By the mid 19th century, it became a word of its own, maintaining its same definition. The passel of reporters gathered at the door made it difficult to enter our workplace. Having so many people packed at the entrance was a nuisance.

Fast radio bursts are among the most powerful objects in the universe. Many of them are hundreds of millions of light-years away. Despite their great power, though, there's no consensus on what they are. But a whole passel of new discoveries may help. Fast radio bursts were first seen in 2007. But they last only a tiny fraction of a second, which makes them hard to track down. By earlier this year, astronomers had seen about 140 of them. But a few months ago, they got 535 more to study. The new ones were discovered by CHIME — a radio telescope in British Columbia that scans the entire northern sky. Most of the objects in the new catalog have produced a single outburst. But a few have repeated themselves. Their outbursts last a little bit longer than the others, and they have a tighter range of frequencies. That suggests there are two classes of “bursting” objects. The class that repeats may be produced by magnetars — the super-dense and ultra-magnetic corpses of once-mighty stars. They spin up to hundreds of times per second, beaming energy into space with each turn. In fact, CHIME and other telescopes detected a radio outburst from a magnetar in our own galaxy. So repeating bursters could be powered by one mechanism, while those that are seen only once are powered by something different. Detailed study of all the new observations — as well as future outbursts — will help astronomers figure it out.  Script by Damond Benningfield Support McDonald Observatory

content: Aug 21, 2016 · podcast: Feb 23, 2020 Audio (MP3): 20160821 - A passel of piggy picking up I've never been in a hog processing plant. When I lived in Iowa I knew people who had though. Knew people who worked the second and third shifts. Knew people who worked on the kill floor. Work comes up in conversation as it does now and then and every once in a while I'd hear stories. If a story provokes me hard enough I'll form a complicated, detailed mental playhouse of it. And it'll stick like glue, turn into an everlasting memory that my imagination makes all too real. It'll become part of my story. Follow me around like gum on my shoe. For life. I often accidentally think of the hogs in whatever warehouse room they're herded into before they actually got to the kill floor. Again, I've never been in such a place but I get sucked into the dirty, gritty gum when the hogs beckon. ... It's dark and hard to see in the pre-kill chamber. Because the corporate doesn't want you to. The workers shouldn't see the hogs nor should the hogs see each other. Seeing the animal eyeballs of panic would only amplify the room's sweaty electricity. The floor is concrete, permanent and unnatural. There's no give to it. The workers stand behind railings up above. They wear Leatherface aprons, backward capes. They're the unintentional supervillains, paid by the hour.[1] I'm down with the hogs, moving as part of the chaotic herd. I'm not one of them because I always play the outsider but I am one with their stress. Hurried hog silhouettes herding in panic. Unknowingly moving, running. The wrong way. Pivoting their front ends left and right because they don't have necks. Looking for an out but only bouncing off one another and continuing their momentum forward. The room's energy is filled with heated power. I don't know how big it is. It's like being in a nightclub and it's so dark that you become disoriented and lost. I see flashes of chemically stretched animal flesh as the swine prison spotlights make their way to and from. Sometimes the lights are only a few hanging flood lamps, swaying with a gentle horror. The pigs wear collars similar to those Rutger Hauer wore in Wedlock. I don't know why they need them. If I were a better artist I'd draw what I imagine as a comic book cover. It's never quiet either. The hog hoofs march the concrete in nonuniform muffled clapping. There's a constant frenzy of short lived screams. Not death screams but outbursts of piggy alarm. Cry outs. High-pitched shrills of Mel Gibson's Freedom. The hogs are my lambs...but they were never real for me. After I typed that last sentence I paused. I realized Clarice isn't real either. But not to me. Movies and characters and plots can (and often do) take non-fictional places in my head. They become history. ... In my darkest, blackest, most panicked times my fright is televised internally. As those pigs. In that room. My horror is nowhere near the magnitude as the hogs' and being funneled into whatever electric chamber but...when dread overtakes me and I can't think clearly...I generally see, hear, feel this warehouse space played on some twisted massacre loop. ... Not long after Kathy and I divorced, I had an outburst outpouring captured in the song below. The music is much more audibly harsh than the scene I describe above, what I actually hear, but I had a recent breakup swirling and all. It was an attempt though to translate how the hogs manifest when I'm alone. grahm sexton - tap dance - MP3... Hmm. I didn't intend to go this far down the rabbit hole. I've never told anyone of the hogs before. They've been with me since the first time I saw Carrie and a sadistic John Travolta. The playhouse solidified when I lived up the street from a processing plant. Anyway. A couple of years ago when anti-socializing with the terrorized hogs in the slaughterhouse asylum, I told Jimi of whatever inescapable distress I was in the midst of. That I wasn't taking my spiritual antibiotics, that I was just freaking out with the other hogs. I felt as if life had been hitting me with a shock rod over and over again. I hadn't prayed for a couple of days. Or sought spiritual guidance. All was lost. Jimi said to me, "Well, ya better start praying again." Oh. The most divine answers are the most simplistic. I lose sight of that easily. I talked about this not long ago in a meeting but want to reiterate its value to me. The value is the main reason I started writing this blurb that put my hysterical hog factory on public display. In the department store window. Just because I haven't prayed for a couple of days doesn't mean that I can't start praying again. Like right now. Often times when I don't do things that I should, my mind goes to this place where I can never do them again. I haven't called a friend in awhile so I can never again pick up the phone sorta thing. And the longer the time since the last, the more I feel like I can't. I have to give up entirely. Too much time has passed and I've lost my chance, the window closed. The department store turned off its lights. I don't know why this is. But I can. I can pick up the phone. I can reach out. I can go to a meeting. I can pray. I can pick up where I left off. It's not too late. It never is. I don't have to quit completely. The only one who says I can't is me. Stop thinking, stop fretting. If I start thinking my wheels start moving. And then they start spinning. And then I never go anywhere. Stop road-blocking, cock-blocking yourself. That was vulgar I know but whatever. My point is we can (and should regularly) give ourselves permission to do the things that -- for whatever reason -- we tell ourselves we can't. Take the piggy out. Embrace knowing that there are no warehouses. There's only freedom from our own limitations. #confessional #lettherebehope #diariespodcast I have no judgment on the workers.

Depuis un an, Suzane nous surprend, nous épate, nous enthousiasme grâce à son projet artistique qui allie chant et danse, musique électro et chanson à textes. Cette jeune artiste française a sorti un premier album très attendu ce 24 janvier 2020, intitulé Toï Toï. Avant de commencer Suzane, nous voudrions vous montrer une photo et vous demander ce qu’elle vous inspire... Ah ! (sourire) C’est une photo de Bruce Lee, pour son film La Fureur du Dragon. Effectivement, c’est un film que j’ai beaucoup regardé avec mon père, qui est fan d’arts martiaux. Et ce Bruce Lee est revenu plus tard quand j’ai voulu faire cette combi que je porte chaque jour sur scène. Je me suis beaucoup inspirée de Bruce Lee car j’avais envie d’une combi de combat, pour entrer dans l’arène, pour rentrer sur scène. Comment est né justement le personnage de Suzane ? Océane est votre véritable prénom… donc est-ce que le pseudo permet de se créer un véritable personnage ? Je pense que le pseudo m’a permis de trouver un peu plus de liberté. Quand je suis Océane, je me juge beaucoup, sur mes écritures, sur beaucoup de choses… En étant “quelqu’un d’autre”, je me permets beaucoup plus de choses. Donc j’ai l’impression de me sentir encore plus moi-même en étant Suzane. C’est un peu le but de ce pseudo. Ce pseudo correspond à quelque chose de particulier ? Bien sûr ! C’est le prénom de mon arrière-grand-mère. Je lui ai piqué car j’ai toujours trouvé ce prénom extrêmement joli, avec ce “z” en plein milieu, qui sort de nulle part… Je trouve que c’est un prénom qui a beaucoup de caractère, et c’est une figure féminine qui m’a beaucoup marquée. Donc j’avais aussi un peu envie de lui rendre hommage en lui prenant son prénom. Vous l’avez un peu connue ? Parlez-nous un peu d’elle... Je l’ai connue assez peu… quand elle est partie, je devais avoir six ou sept ans. Mais je l’ai assez connue pour ce que ça me marque. Votre première expression artistique a été la danse et non la chanson, en fréquentant le conservatoire d’Avignon de cinq à dix-sept ans. Du coup c’est par le classique que vous commencez la musique… J’ai commencé la danse un petit peu par hasard à cinq ans. J’étais d’abord dans un petit village à côté d’Avignon. Ma mère accompagnait ma sœur le mercredi après-midi mais elle n’avait pas de nounou pour moi ce jour-là donc j’y suis allée avec elles et, alors que ma sœur a détesté la danse classique, moi, j’en suis tombée folle amoureuse. Ensuite, à sept ans, j’ai demandé à ma mère d’entrer dans cette grosse école qu'était le Conservatoire, pour y trouver des techniques encore plus poussées. Ces dix années au Conservatoire ont été très intenses. Je dansais tous les jours de 13h à 19h, sauf le dimanche. J’étais en danse-études. “Derrière ton bar en bois, sauf pendant les heures creuses, tu rêves de l’Olympia, d’exister devant la foule curieuse”... Ça a été dur d’en arriver là Suzane ? Vous pensiez qu’on ne croyait pas en vous ? Quand j’ai écrit ces paroles, j’étais serveuse dans un restaurant du 20e, un restau de quartier. Et je me revois le matin arriver, mettre la salle en place, préparer les tables, et rêver de cet Olympia. Il s’est passé tellement de choses entre temps. Je ne pensais pas que tout ça allait arriver, ce sont des paroles un peu prémonitoires. C’est incroyable qu’une chanson puisse prendre vie, et changer la mienne. Vous pensez qu’il y avait peu de raisons que l’on croie en vous au départ ? Oh oui, en effet, il y avait peu de raisons ! J’ai toujours été habituée à dire que je voulais monter sur scène. Les gens savaient que je faisais de la danse etc… mais c’est vrai qu’arrivée à seize ans, quand on vous demande ce que vous voulez faire plus tard (et cette question arrive très tôt !), moi je savais, mais on me disait que ce n’était pas possible, que c’était un métier basé sur du fantasme et qu’il fallait que je choisisse quelque chose de réel. Or, je ne comprenais pas puisque j’avais toujours travaillé pour ça au Conservatoire ! Et un jour on me dit que tout ça, ce n’est pas possible ! Donc oui, il y avait de l'inquiétude de la part des adultes autour de moi à cette époque. Ensuite, ils ont compris que de toute manière, mon rêve était devenu complètement vital, on m’a donc laissé faire car je suis beaucoup trop têtue ! Et quelle place occupait la musique ? La musique m’a nourri. J’ai commencé à danser sur de la musique classique à la base. Puis ensuite sur de la chanson française. J’ai découvert les grands du texte, de la voix. J’écoutais beaucoup Piaf, Barbara, Brel quand j’étais au Conservatoire entre deux cours pour couper un peu. Je me suis alors prise d’amour pour les mots, pour les voix, et j’ai découvert un nouveau moyen d’expression qui plus tard est devenu essentiel. Lorsque l’on lit vos interviews, on voit que deux artistes reviennent souvent comme deux références importantes pour vous : Stromae et Chris… Ce sont de très belles références d’artistes très singuliers qui ont su casser les codes. Ce sont des gens qui ont inspiré la nouvelle génération. Christine est une artiste pluridisciplinaire… Il y a quelques années, on disait d’un artiste qu’il était chanteur ou danseur ou autre, bref, il y avait forcément une case. Or, aujourd’hui, la pluridisciplinarité arrive sur scène grâce à des gens comme ça. Ça m’a permis de m’imposer avec mon bagage, le chant, la danse, l’écriture, etc. Tout est lié, et c’est ce genre d'artiste qui m’a permis d’en arriver là aujourd’hui. Donc oui, de très belles références… Après, j’espère qu’on pourra dire un jour “ça c’est du Stromae, ça c’est du Chris, et ça c’est du Suzane” ! Quelle est la première chanson que vous avez écrite ? Dans la foule, ça parle d'une fille un peu perdue, et je ne l’ai jamais sorti. Mais la toute première que j’ai sorti est L’Insatisfait. Là, je me suis dit, celle-là, je vais la sortir. Quelle est l’origine de cette chanson ? J’étais donc serveuse et je servais un monsieur. Il avait l’air très insatisfait. Il renvoyait ses plats, etc. J’ai fait tout ce que je pouvais pour essayer de comprendre, je ne savais plus quoi faire. Je suis allée chercher ce sentiment en moi, l’insatisfaction. C’est quelque chose que l’on ressent tous finalement. Et je vois bien qu'à chaque concert, les gens se reconnaissent facilement dans ce texte… Vous vous dites “conteuse d’histoire”... C’est une écriture du quotidien, une écriture réaliste que vous proposez... Oui, j’apprécie beaucoup les textes de Fréhel ou Piaf. Je leur rends hommage. C’est le quotidien qui m’inspire, qui me nourrit, et bien sûr les personnages qui font ce quotidien. J’aime bien essayer de décrire l’univers dans lequel j’évolue, en tant que citoyenne aussi. Vous sortez un premier album, intitulé Toï Toï. En allemand cela veut dire “bon courage” ou “bonne chance”. Pourquoi ce titre ? Ce titre est plus une sorte de grigri en fait. La première fois que je suis montée sur scène on m’a dit “toï toï” et je ne comprenais pas trop ce que ça voulait dire à la base. Et c’est vrai que c’est un mot qui ne m’a jamais quitté, notamment cette année où j’ai eu la chance de faire beaucoup de scènes. J’ai eu de grands tracs et ce toï toï m’a beaucoup accompagné sur scène. Donc oui, bonne chance quoi ! J’ai envie de souhaiter bonne chance à ces quatorze chansons, qu’elles puissent voyager ! Justement, ces chansons… Comment les avez-vous écrites ? Vous nous avez parlé de vos inspirations… Parlons de votre processus créatif. Au départ, c’était sur un carnet d’additions ? Oui, ça commençait très souvent comme ça oui ! “Vite vite un carnet d’additions entre le faux filet et le cabillaud !”. Je notais vite des phrases, puis je récupérais tout ça chez moi. Pour écrire, je commence très souvent le texte avant la musique. J’ai besoin d’assez de temps pour écrire. J’ai besoin de voir le film, qu’il soit vraiment clair. Et ensuite je peux commencer à écrire. Quand j’écris une chanson, je suis dans un truc où je regarde tout. J’ai l’impression d’un accouchement, ça peut même être violent. Parfois des émotions peuvent remuer. C’est un processus où toute ma vie rentre en compte. Bref c’est tout un truc. Et la musique vient broder ensuite. Elle s’ajoute subtilement. Mon but est de mettre le texte en avant, même si la musique est évidemment primordiale car elle arrive pour appuyer les mots. Je pense que sur cet album, c’est plutôt bien réussi. Ensuite je vois mon ami Valentin Marceau en studio. C’est mon réalisateur et j’aime travailler avec lui car il est très talentueux et autant capable de bosser avec moi qu’avec Michel Sardou ou d’autres... C’est quelqu'un qui comprend vraiment l’ADN des artistes. On a poussé ces chansons jusqu’au bout avec Valentin. Donc c’est plutôt un processus solitaire au départ… Ah oui complètement. Je suis très seule au départ, j’aime beaucoup ça d’ailleurs. Ensuite je m’ouvre petit à petit pour le bien de la chanson. J’aime beaucoup fonctionner comme ça. Vous avez même fait une chanson sur vous-même qui porte votre nom de scène, “Suzane”. Pourtant, ce n’est pas vraiment un égotrip… Non parce que je ne voulais pas que ça le soit. Je voulais que cette chanson parle au plus de gens possible. Je pense ne pas être la seule à avoir des rêves. On en a tous. Je voulais rappeler aux gens que parfois, il ne faut pas trop écouter ses proches car ils sont toxiques car ils s’inquiètent. Ce sont les premiers à nous dire de faire gaffe, et c’est pas méchant. Je voulais dire qu’il fallait oublier tout ça, et que quand on a l'impression que pour soi, c’est ce chemin et pas un autre, eh bien il faut le suivre. Au travers des textes que vous écrivez, il y a beaucoup de sujets actuels, comme le harcèlement sexuel, l’homosexualité, l’écologie, l'addiction aux nouvelles technologies… Il y a des messages que vous souhaitez faire passer… Comment allez-vous chercher toute cette inspiration ? Je pense que dans ma vie de citoyenne, il y a des choses qui me parlent plus que d’autre. Et comme dirait Julien Clerc, une chanson peut être utile aussi. Je pense que la musique est une grande arme. Elle peut soulever des questions, avec de l’humour ou pas, sans donner de leçons. Avec une écriture plus frontale. Je suis touchée par ces thèmes depuis quelques années. J’essaie de décrire ce monde dans lequel je vis. C’est un moyen de me défendre que de parler de ça. On entend que vous êtes une artiste concernée, voire engagée… Que pensez-vous de cet engagement de l’artiste ? Quand l’artiste est engagé, c’est que déjà, l’humain l’est à la base, je crois. On n’est pas tous des artistes engagés, et heureusement. Il faut de tout. Des chansons d’amour, des chansons engagées. Moi je pense que oui, je suis comme ça… Du coup je m’arrête sur ce genre de thèmes. Le mot “concernée” est très juste. Je ne vais pas faire une manif à chaque fois car malheureusement je n’ai pas le temps, mais j’ai envie de m’exprimer par l’art et par la musique. C’est ma manière à moi de montrer mon engagement. Dans “Il est où le SAV ?”, on est clairement entre la chanson et l’électro… Comment êtes-vous arrivée à cette osmose ? Pour moi ce contraste est une évidence. J’ai tellement écouté de chanson française en étant jeune, ensuite je suis arrivée à l’électro vers dix-sept ans après le Conservatoire. Je suis sortie un peu en clubs à ce moment-là, où j’ai découvert Daft Punk, Vitalic, Justice... J’ai trouvé ça très puissant et ça ne m’a jamais lâché. Une vraie claque. Au moment où je commençais à faire de la musique, ça m’a paru évident d’intégrer tout ça. Voilà, c’est tout cela qui fait aujourd’hui mon ADN. Votre projet artistique mêle donc danse et musique. Comment fait-on vivre tout ça quand on est seule en scène, et qu’on est l’artiste la plus programmée en festivals en 2019 ? Depuis ma première scène au Forum de Vauréal en 2018, je vis de vraies rencontres avec le public. Donc je ne suis pas vraiment seule ! Avec mon déclencheur Akaï Mini je balance les sons quand je veux, c’est une extrême liberté pour moi sur scène. C’est tellement différent de l’époque de danse classique avec mon petit chignon bien aligné, le même rouge à lèvres, etc. Il fallait même que je dise à ma mère “alors je suis celle devant à droite” (rires) donc là sur scène je suis passée du tout au tout. Et c’est vrai que de ne pas avoir une chorégraphie à respecter, je me sens bien comme ça. Je danse, je peux improviser, il n’y a rien d’arrêté. Vous êtes plutôt du genre “traqueuse” avant de monter sur scène ? Oh oui je le suis. Mais en même temps, c’est le trac qui me fait monter sur scène. C’est une adrénaline mais ça peut aussi être un peu paralysant. Il faut faire attention mais c’est vrai que cette année j’ai eu la chance de n’avoir que du bon trac, et ce toï toï qui m’accompagne pour monter sur scène. J’essaie à chaque fois d’avoir un petit rituel en m’échauffant le corps ou la voix. Je suis assez exigeante sur scène, je pense que ça vient de la danse classique. Alors voilà, j’essaie vraiment de me préparer car je pense que la scène, ça se mérite. Je fais donc tout à fond pour la mériter. Vous avez aussi fait une mini tournée en Chine l’an dernier…. Quel sentiment en avez-vous gardé ? Au début je me suis dit “mais pourquoi mon tourneur m’envoie en Chine ?”. Je me disais qu’ils ne comprendraient pas ma langue et qu’ils s’en ficheraient. Au contraire, j’ai été super bien accueillie. Pas comme Madonna mais quand même ! Ça a été très enrichissant car c’est là où j’ai écrit Il est où le SAV ? car j’ai été particulièrement choquée par la pollution à Shanghai, il y avait un smog permanent et dense partout, on rentrait à l'hôtel et on se mouchait noir ! Je me suis dit qu’un jour le monde serait comme ça... Ça a été très intense, je ne regrette pas d’être partie en Chine et j’espère y retourner. Quel est votre rêve aujourd’hui Suzane ? J’en ai encore beaucoup. Mais il y en a un qui va se réaliser le 1er décembre 2020, je l’ai su il y a quelques jours et je le partage avec vous : mon premier Olympia aura lieu à cette date. Je trouve ça fou. Je me revois encore en train d’écrire ces paroles sur ce fantasme dans ce restaurant. J’en rêvais et là je vois marqué “Suzane à l’Olympia le 1er décembre”. Mon rêve est que j’espère ne jamais perdre ce truc d’être impressionnée par ce qui m’arrive. De ce que la musique amène dans une vie.   Propos recueillis par Valérie Passelègue et Laurent Coulon, pour RFI et La Fabrique Culturelle.

Marshall Hughes, founder of Passel shares his tale of a self-confessed "space nut" growing up in a job oriented community, falling into a career in logistics and becoming an entrepreneur due to a software glitch. We also talk about energy versus time management, parallel universes and how Australian startups tend to look the world in a unique way. Marshall has over 25 years experience in logistics, and until 2016 was Chief Operating Officer of Myfreight; a freight management, brokerage and software company based in Ringwood. In 2016 Marshall founded Passel - a service for retailers where shoppers deliver on their way home to online shoppers. Passel launched in Melbourne in April 2018 and has since expanded to stores in Sydney, Brisbane, Adelaide and Mornington. Launch in Ireland and Northern is planned for late 2019 after Passel won a worldwide competition and funding from the cities of Dublin and Belfast. When not working on Passel, Marshall is a Productivity coach and tries to spend some time with his wife Jackie, and 5 children ranging from 18 months to 19 years. www.passeldelivery.com To find out about upcoming events organised by Melbourne Silicon Beach - Australia's fastest growing startup community - go to: https://www.meetup.com/en-AU/Melbourne-Silicon-Beach/ Melbourne Silicon Beach is proudly sponsored by: Victory Offices http://bitly.com/VictoryOffices_SD   MYOB   http://bitly.com/MYOB_SD   Allied Legal   http://bitly.com/AlliedLegal_SD   Your host, Dan O'Grady can be found on LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/danogradysimpateco   and at simpateco.com.au   Intro & outro music by Dan O'Grady    

Marshall Hughes, co-founder and CEO of delivery start-up Passel, joins me. We cover: The technology and reasoning behind Passel Accessing excess capacity compared to professional or “gig economy” couriers What cocooning is and what it means for a startup - and how it’s different to pivoting E-commerce returns and exchanges The experience for passers (Passel’s delivery people) and why it’s important - and how it differs from the gig economy delivery experience Passel’s partnership with Swinburne University about smart cities Demand for same-day and next-day delivery Which sectors? What kind of customers?

We explore the booming sharing economy and the impacts it is having on retail. Technologies like Passel are providing the physical presence retailers with a chance to 'fight back' against the online pure-play retailers such as Amazon, by leveraging the underutilised resources of everyday shoppers.

Welcome one and all to this week's filler episode of When Nerds Collide! Due to circumstances beyond their control (laziness), Dan and Tom were unable (unwilling) to record an episode. But instead of nothing, the guys have thrown you a bone this week. A smelly, moldy, inedible bone, but a bone nonetheless! In 2016, in the months leading up to the release of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the guys recorded a Harry Potter episode each month, featuring such fantastic guests such as Blair, Ivey, Ily, and Karen! And at the end of each episode, as usual, Tom challenged Dan and our guests with a quiz! And since everyone loves Tom's quizzes (??????), Dan has edited all of them together into one huge helping of Potter quiz goodness! So grab a Butterbeer, put on the Sorting Hat and check it out! Dan and Tom will return in Avengers: Infinity War Thanks to Kirby Krackle for the lovely music! Nerd to your Mother! The post #239 – A Passel of Potter Probing Repeats! appeared first on When Nerds Collide.

In 2016, the United States collectively pointed a trembling finger of accusation at the Appalachian region. The verdict was in: America was screwed, and “Trump Country” was to blame. Journalists began to flock to the region, looking to demystify and correctly identify the dysfunctional roots of Appalachia and its people. Think piece after think piece was published, many (if not most) reducing the complex and nuanced history of the region into a singular narrative about a backwards and impoverished white working class that were desperate and foolish enough to vote against their best interest. But being exposed to only this narrative does more than just oversimplify, it also obfuscates and distracts from more sinister stories of power and greed. Elizabeth Catte, author of What You Are Getting Wrong About Appalachia, joins us to start a new and more nuanced conversation about Appalachia. In this episode, Dr. Catte frankly assesses the history of Appalachian stereotypes and the reasons why these stereotypes became and remain so popular. By providing us with examples of writing, art, and video games that “get it right” about Appalachia, Elizabeth reveals why it matters so much that we complicate the current Appalachian narrative not just for Appalachia’s sake, but for the sake of the United States as a whole. Elizabeth Catte is a historian and writer originally from East Tennessee. She has a PhD in history and currently lives in Staunton, Virginia (pronounced Stanton) and is the director of Passel, a historical consulting firm. Her book, What You Are Getting Wrong About Appalachia will be out from Belt Publishing February 2018. This episode is the first in Gaming Broadcast’s new series Playing Appalachia, a collection of conversations with Appalachian and Appalachian adjacent gamers and game makers.

In Part 1 we begin with recordings from the 1936 DNC with Franklin D. Roosevelt and feature outstanding material such as Senator John F. Kennedy's 1956 DNC Keynote Address to the Mississippi Freedom Party's effort to challenge the Democrats in 1964 to the now historic chaos of the 1968 DNC in Chicago.
