The penultimate episode for Skeleton Crew! We got loads to talk about this week and lots to speculate on! ALSO I researched each and every episode on Disney plus, by hand, calculated the runtime of each episode minus the credits, Lucasfilm logo, star wars intro, and "previously on" flashback to figure out which of these shows have delivered gold standard runtimes or not... Skeleton Crew is loosing the race, just a heads up. But in other news its been interesting to see which shows have the longest episodes and which stay above an average 35 min minimum.

This week, we have a very special guest chatting to us about her new book launch! Today, November 19th, 2024, comes a book called "One with the Force: 18 Universal Truths in Star Wars." This book is sure to be a hit with any Star Wars fan with a desire to dive deep into the inspirations of the force. We hope you enjoy the conversation! BUY THE BOOK TODAY: https://www.amazon.ca/One-Force-Universal-Truths-Star/dp/1538198711 www.kristanoble.com https://www.facebook.com/krista.noble.92 About Gary and George: https://web.archive.org/web/20050612235541/http:/www.adherents.com/people/pl/George_Lucas.html Book Summary: Why are the Star Wars films so popular? Of course, viewers love the characters, the plot, the music, and the special effects. However, there is a deeper reason why these films resonate with audiences: Star Wars contains universal truths—principles that are "true for all time, all places and all people." The same principles can be found in religions and philosophies throughout the world, including the Vedic tradition of ancient India, Buddhism, Taoism, Sikhism, Judaism, Christianity, Islam, and Native American/First Nations beliefs.   In One with the Force: 18 Universal Truths in Star Wars, Krista Noble explores these principles. She delves into a rich array of topics, from the Force to collective consciousness, and from enlightenment to immortality. Readers will see that the philosophy of the Jedi doesn't only apply "in a galaxy far, far away"; it is also highly relevant to everyday living. Like Luke Skywalker, we should all look within to discover the deepest truths of life, pursue our individual destinies, and strive to reach our full potential as human beings. In these ways, we can embody the wisdom of the Jedi.   Advance praise (if there's room to include it):   "An intriguing addition to Star Wars scholarship, which reveals the timeless substructure underpinning the space-age saga. If you watched the Star Wars movies with a feeling in your bones that you were seeing something unfold that was not merely the product of modern creative storytellers but something ancient and powerful, this book will tell you why." —Joe Holland, Instructor of Consciousness & Human Potential, Maharishi International University   "One with the Force reveals why Star Wars touches the souls of its fans, showing that this iconic film series has much more to it than meets the eye. Noble's book expounds on the universal principles in Star Wars that inspire us and sustain the cosmos."  —Marci Shimoff, #1 NY Times bestselling author of Happy for No Reason and Chicken Soup for the Woman's Soul   "This lucid study takes up a topic dear to my heart—the uses of fiction as a wisdom path—and traces essential principles from South Eastern and other traditions of wisdom and spirit appearing in Star Wars. The parallels mentioned by the author are evocative and even archetypal. The image of a path of spirituality emphasizing balance, experience, mindful action, and unity found in difference speaks strongly to our time of culture wars and increased questioning of traditional creeds." —Craig Chalquist, PhD, author of Soulmapper   "Krista Noble's insightful presentation of the Star Wars trilogy highlights and magnifies the inherent nobility of this blockbuster film series, as she unearths and identifies age-old universal principles of life and living embedded in the story. Noble's book provides a happy hunting ground for exploring the profound truths of the world's cultural, spiritual, and religious traditions. A magnificent read!" —Dr. Judy Booth, retired faculty member at Maharishi International University, continuing to serve in an advisory capacity   Ask us how you can get involved on the podcast team. ————————————————————————

Dooku Serenno, the name of a character that so many Jedi and politicians alike both admired and respected. Those of us who know the character have come to know him definitively in his darkest days portrayed by the great Christopher Lee. Or to the animated star wars fans out there, Corey Burton. This week we dive inside an audiobook called "Dooku: Jedi Lost" which provides an inside look at the life and legend of Count Dooku in his younger years growing up as a Jedi apprentice to Grand Master Yoda, his friendship and alliance to Sifo-Dias, and the discovery of his birth right, his noble status of wealth and power. Dooku is one of the most complex characters in the Star Wars universe and it's been very exciting to dive into this story and his downfall. ————————————————————————

In this podcast episode of the Post Status Happiness Hour, Michelle Frechette is joined by her friend and WordPress security expert, Kathy Zant. They delve into various aspects of website security, focusing on WordPress. Kathy discusses her recent security courses aimed at demystifying WordPress for beginners and emphasizes the importance of proactive security measures. They highlight the critical role of regular backups and the potential risks of automated updates. Kathy shares practical security tips, such as using strong passwords and enabling two-factor authentication. The episode is both informative and engaging, filled with personal anecdotes and humor, making it a valuable resource for listeners.Top Takeaways: Importance of Security: Both Michelle and Kathy emphasize the importance of understanding and implementing robust security measures to protect websites from hacks.Criminal Behavior: Kathy highlights that criminals (including hackers) often look for the easiest targets. If a website or home has visible security measures, they are more likely to move on to an easier target. However, if a determined attacker sees something of value, they might still find a way in despite the security measures.Auto Updates: Kathy advises against relying solely on automated updates, especially for websites that are crucial for business. She recommends a process of updating on a staging environment first, ensuring everything works, and then updating the production site. She highlights real-world scenarios where automated updates have caused issues, leading to downtime and confusion over whether a site was hacked or simply experiencing an update-related error.Content Creation and Community Engagement:Kathy discusses her responsibilities at Motivation Code, including managing content across different platforms and facilitating challenges to foster community interaction. Despite facing technical challenges with platforms like LinkedIn, she remains committed to creating engaging content and moving activities to more effective platforms like Facebook.Mentioned In The Show:ShopifyWixSquarespaceMotivation Code CrowdStrike StellarWPWordCamp USNathan IngramMark WestguardKathy's website

This episode of Connecting the Dots is on Parenting - something we are all winging. We go to colleges, trainings and leadership development programmes for all sorts of capabilities, but there is none for parenting. In this episode, we learn from Roger Federer's parents, Nandan, Nilekani‘s parents and many other successful leaders who reflect on their childhood. We also learn from some of the researchers on how we can be mindful as parents. If you have a child 10 years or above, the chances are, you will find this of value. We also realise you are short on time. So I have handpicked 10 nuggets from across the various episodes on parenting that I have found of value.
