Shoot us a Text.Episode #1007: Consumers hit showrooms ahead of tariff hikes, juicing March sales and making record months and Q1s. Dealers like Rhett Ricart and Zac Kinch fielded a flood of buyers with questions and Amazon dropped Nova Act—an AI agent that shops, browses, and books like a pro.Spurred by tariff fear, consumers flooded showrooms in late March, giving the U.S. auto market a surge just in time for Q1 closings. The urgency sparked record performances for brands and sent retail sales soaring.Ford was up 19%, with Hyundai (+15%) and Kia (+25%) posting their best ever March and Q1. GM posted a 17% Q1 jump, with Buick leading at +39%.Inventory shortages, especially in hybrids, are expected in Q2 as a result of early Q1 pull-forwards.The average March retail price hit $44,849, up $637 YoY.Randy Parker, CEO of Hyundai and Genesis North America: “It's probably the best weekend that I've seen since Cash for Clunkers… Lots of people rushed in this weekend, especially, to try and beat the tariffs.”The looming reality of sweeping import tariffs sent ripple effects through the auto retail landscape over the weekend, as dealers fielded a surge of questions and customer visits. While many came to buy, others came simply to understand what's coming.Dealers are racing to educate consumers: inventory levels ticked up as brands rushed vehicles into the U.S. before the deadline.The Trump administration's 25% import tariff is set to hit over 7 million vehicles starting April 3.Automakers are taking a mixed approach to pricing ahead of the tariffs—some, like BMW, are temporarily holding prices steady on imported models, while others are reducing incentives despite rising inventory, anticipating that tariffs will naturally drive prices higher. Rhett Ricart, CEO, Ricart Automotive Group said “One out of four of the people who called in were talking about tariffs—‘Does this car have a tariff on it? A Hyundai? A Kia? A Nissan?' That's what they wanted to know about.”Zac Kinch, GM, Bob Rohrman Toyota said “This is gonna be, ‘Learn and fly by the seat of our pants'... I think the auto industry is going to have to figure it out.”Amazon is diving deeper into AI with Nova Act, a semi-autonomous agent designed to operate both online and in the real world. With capabilities like browsing, shopping, and task execution, Nova Act is aiming to be your new digital helper.Nova Act can complete tasks like finding rentals, placing orders, or filling out forms.Nova Act SDK lets developers build bots for hotel bookings, food orders, and more.It comes in text-generation tiers (Micro, Lite, Pro) and supports image (Canvas) and video (Reel) creation.“Nova.amazon.com puts the power of Amazon's frontier intelligence into the hands of every developer,” said Rohit Prasad, SVP of Amazon AGI.Join Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, sHosts: Paul J Daly and Kyle MountsierGet the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email

Un programa que no promete la calma de un café entre amigos ni las respuestas fáciles que reconfortan. Aquí se cocinó sin recetas precisas, el caldo espeso de la creación artística!Escritores, poetas, músicos y artistas se sientan a la mesa para escarbar en las brasas de sus obsesiones, sus furias y las pequeñas muertes que los llevaron a volcar el alma en un papel, una canción o un lienzo.Este piloto es otro golpe a la barriga. Descarriado, sí, pero con una chispa que podría incendiarlo todo. No es un show que se disculpa por sus tropiezos; es un pedazo de carbón, del que podría salir una grata sorpresa, un vómito visceral que reconoce su fealdad y la abraza.El primer paso hacia algo mejor, algo más afilado, más crudo, más real. Porque mientras otros se quedan en el sofá pensando, aquí ya se ha servido la sopa, hirviendo y con todo el filo que pide la vida.En un cosmos donde las palabras duelen, queman y, a veces, sanan! Pero nunca dejan indiferente a nadie.¿Por qué? Porque en Sopa de Letras, la creación es hambre, dolor y redención.Espero sea de su agrado. Gracias a Randy Parker por prestarnos el spot, a Valdo Jimenez por creer en nuestra idea y a todos los presentes el Martes 4 de Febrero.

PIRO NOS COMENTA: "Bernardo Corrales nos regaló un poema que permea en el hondo del alma. Más allá de la sensibilidad está la sensatez, en este caso la poesía se usa como formato válido para la denuncia, queda muy claro que no hay ningún motivo para celebrar la realidad de los niños de Gaza y que la violencia más grande es la desatención e indiferencia humana al respecto, por eso como dice Corrales: -no es hora para ningún regocijo-. Este episodio de Sopa de Letras se las trae y los invito a que nos sigan en los canales de spotify y YouTube."Un programa que no promete la calma de un café entre amigos ni las respuestas fáciles que reconfortan.

Don Bernardo S., nos comenta: "Algunas veces la angostura de la realidad nos lleva a ensancharla a punta de ficción.

Sopa de Letras es un espacio donde nos sentamos a conversar con personas que crean, con aquellos que sienten esa fuerza indomable que los impulsa a dar vida al arte, aun cuando en Costa Rica, para muchos, lo artístico carece de valor, especialmente si emerge desde lo popular.

Una muestra de que la pasión por la literatura puede surgir desde los lugares más inesperados. Sergio rompe los moldes al combinar ciencia y arte, demostrando que no hay fronteras para la creatividad, ni siquiera en un campo tan riguroso como la odontología.

Don Bernardo Soto nos comenta: "Acá les presento el piloto de una idea en la que venimos trabajando varios compañeros del Taller Literario Alajuelense, los autoproclamados Bastardos de Poveda y otros que se nos irán sumando. -Sopa de Letras- es un espacio para la gente que se atreve a leer lo propio y puede convertirse en un crisol dónde se forje el futuro literario de este país!

El piloto no busca la perfección. Es crudo, descarriado, un golpe directo al estómago, pero con la chispa capaz de incendiarlo todo. No se disculpa por sus tropiezos; es un pedazo de carbón que, con suerte, podría transformarse en diamante, un vómito visceral que reconoce su fealdad y la abraza. Este es solo el comienzo de algo más afilado, más crudo, más auténtico. Mientras otros se quedan en el sofá pensando, aquí ya se ha servido la sopa: hirviendo, con todo el filo que pide la vida. En este cosmos, las palabras duelen, queman y, a veces, sanan, pero jamás dejan indiferente a nadie. Porque en Sopa de Letras, la creación es hambre, dolor y redención. Espero sea de su agrado. Gracias a Randy Parker por prestarnos el spot, a Valdo Jimenez por creer en nuestra idea y a todos los presentes el Jueves 23 de Enero pasado cuando es escucharon las voces de Fabián, David Monge Arce, Sergio Murillo Picado, Jimmy Boy y Andrés Rodríguez.

En el centro vibrante de la Ardiente Alajuela, a espaldas del héroe Juan Santamaría, Casa Parker 4 Life reabrió sus puertas y se convirtió en el epicentro de una velada donde la música, las anécdotas y las ideas fluyeron en conjunto con las cervezas y el vino!! Este episodio de Radio Pachuco no es pa los tibios; es un manifiesto crudo y directo, un retrato honesto de las historias que surgen cuando las palabras no tienen filtro y las emociones están al desnudo! Rodeados de viejos amigos y nuevas caras, comenzamos con un brindis por la visión de Randy Parker, un creador que no solo ha moldeado un espacio físico, sino un lugar donde la comunidad, el arte y la vida se entrelazan. Randy, el "padre Parker," compartió con nosotros su viaje, desde el mítico taller de serigrafía en El Tres hasta la reapertura de Casa Parker, un proyecto que late con esfuerzo, familia y pasión. Hablamos de lo que significa trabajar con las manos, construir desde lo local y resistir el llamado de la desconexión que imponen los condominios de cartón y las vidas encapsuladas en reglas absurdas!! La conversación se adentró en terrenos que no dejan indiferente. Recordamos el pasado y desmenuzamos el presente, explorando cómo el arte, el cine y la música pueden ser tanto una herramienta de resistencia como un reflejo de la desigualdad. Discutimos la importancia de consumir local, no como un acto simbólico, sino como un movimiento tangible que fortalece a quienes crean con sus manos. Hablamos de las cantinas, esos templos sagrados donde se rinde culto a la amistad, y de cómo los espacios más auténticos no se construyen con lujo, sino con las conexiones humanas que los llenan de vida. Entre tragos y carcajadas, compartimos anécdotas que se sienten como golpes al hígado. Historias de desigualdad, de vecinos que no conocen ni el nombre de quienes trabajan en sus casas, y de lo mucho que hemos perdido en este mundo de cercas altas y miradas evasivas. Pero también recordamos los momentos que nos hacen sentir vivos: un perreo intenso en una pista improvisada, un paseo entre bares míticos de Alajuela, esas conversaciones que sacuden el alma mientras el alcohol y la música desinhiben la lengua. Musicalmente, la noche fue un viaje que rompió con las normas. Programamos nuestros "villancicos" navideños: desde el reggaetón que prende la pista hasta clásicos de Camilo Sesto, pasando por los rebeldes acordes de Los Saicos y la finisima lyrica de Wacko. Porque aquí la música no sigue reglas, sino que surge de lo que somos, de lo que sentimos, de lo que vivimos. No podíamos cerrar sin una reflexión sobre el cine costarricense y el arte en general. Hablamos de las voces que no se escuchan, de las historias que no se cuentan, de cómo romper con el molde de las élites para capturar una Costa Rica auténtica, la que habita en las calles y no en los despachos. Es una crítica y un llamado a la acción: a crear, a narrar, a resistir. Este episodio no es solo un registro de una noche en Casa Parker; es una invitación a sumergirnos en las historias que nos conectan, a cuestionar lo que nos rodea y a vivir con la intensidad que solo surge cuando las barreras se caen y la verdad se revela. Atención oyentes eléctricos, esto no es un podcast cualquiera: es una experiencia, un grito, una verdad compartida.

Únete a nosotros en el emocionante viaje "LIMPIEZA: SKATEPARK DE MEZA". En este podcast, exploraremos la lucha valiente y determinada de un grupo de jóvenes patinadores de la provincia de Alajuela, quienes se han propuesto rescatar un skatepark completamente abandonado por las autoridades locales. Sumergidos en un entorno marcado por la indigencia, la drogadicción y la prostitución, estos patinadores se enfrentan a desafíos desalentadores. Pero, cada domingo, madrugan con pasión y dedicación para limpiar el lugar, eliminando materiales fecales y todo tipo de escombros. Son auténticos héroes urbanos, soñadores que anhelan devolver la vida a este espacio y liberarlo de los problemas que lo aquejan. Además de rescatar el skatepark, estos jóvenes visionarios aspiran a generar un impacto positivo en la economía local. A través de entrevistas y relatos conmovedores, descubriremos las historias personales de estos patinadores y su incansable lucha por convertir este espacio abandonado en un centro de actividad vibrante. Acompáñanos en "LIMPIEZA: SKATEPARK DE MEZA" mientras exploramos la resiliencia de estos jóvenes, su espíritu comunitario y su determinación para cambiar su entorno. Juntos, exploraremos cómo el poder del skateboarding puede transformar vidas y revitalizar una comunidad en apuros. ¡Prepárate para inspirarte y sumergirte en esta emocionante travesía hacia la transformación y la esperanza! PIRO NOS COMENTA: "Cuando alguien asume la responsabilidad de impulsar sus ideales hasta materializarlos y sumado a esto nos comparte su liderazgo y la locura de pretender un mundo mejor, entonces me da por detenerme no a verlo, sino a ser parte de eso. En este podcast se sostuvo un conversatorio sobre varios aspectos de la sociedad alajuelense; higiene, ornato, espacios públicos, indigentes, música, arte y patinetas ... a primera vista no parecieran sustantivos vinculados, pero acá les revelamos la verdad sobre los hechos más recientes. Si el Skatepark Meza fuera una cancha de futbol no estaría así de descuidado, hablo de que cuando hay mejenga, las autoridades de la municipalidad y los policías llegan a poner orden si o si. Con el desinterés, desenfoque presupuestario y falta de atención de las partes no se comprende cómo los indigentes de Alajuela han tomado por hotel el sitio y su perimetría, el famoso spot otrohora diseñado para la práctica de los deportes como BMX y Skate, está lleno de zombies, material fecal, agujas de drogas, condones usados y desperdicios de todo tipo. En serio da asco. Randy Parker nos está invitando a sumarnos a la tarea de realizar esos procesos de limpieza, él muchacho ha liderado durante varios años este tipo de procesos para quitarle el miedo a los practicantes del deporte, pues la verdad esos bichos son de cuidado. En años previos se realizaron dos purgas en donde se desarmaron los bunkers y bueno mañana se hará la 3era limpieza dominical consecutiva para regenerar y recuperar el espacio que merecidamente requieren los muchachos. Ante el desinterés no solo de las autoridades municipales que se suponen son los que se encargan de los espacios públicos, sino también de la policía cuyas luces brillan sólo cuando están disfrutando en otros sitios que no corresponden al deporte, pues el skater ha tenido que migrar a falta de apoyo de la institucionalidad.Lo bueno es que no todo está perdido, mañana y toda vez que sea necesario estaremos en la utopía de limpiar el lugar, ojalá algún día pueda yo fortalecer mi ostamenta para poder practicar un deporte que amé y practiqué siendo niño, no lo digo con nostalgia ni con la lente romántica de ser un infiltrado en esta valiente cultura, yo simplemente me conformo con ver a los buenos muchachos en lo suyo."

We continue Marc's Miserable MARVELous May with 1990's Captain America -  movie that should have been made by New World Pictures but wasn't.   Instead, it was made by the Cannon Films offshoot, 21st Century Film Corporation. which is why we invited the author of The Cannon Film Guide, Austin Trunick, to join us to discuss this straight-to-video superhero movie.  Austin shares some fascinating stories about the making of Captain America while we debate important questions like:  Is Captain America actually a superhero or just a regular guy with super strong frisbee golf skills?   Is Captain America the older sibling of Ralphie and Randy Parker from A Christmas Story?   Can a piano stay tuned when placed on a castle wall overlooking the ocean?  Should you let your kids wander the streets of Washington DC at night so they can practice their amateur photography skills?   We discuss.

When hump day rolls around and it drops us in the middle of the month, we have to talk about some controversy, naturally. Leading off this morning are Volvo's plans for a direct to consumer model, followed by Hyundai and Kia battling TikTok and the release of the consumer pricing index.Volvo's European plans for direct to consumer sales has US dealers prepping for defensive measures with the automaker.Volvo's new CEO, Jim Rowan, argued the disconnect between the OEM and consumer in pre- and post- sale environments goes against his experience in the consumer electronics industry.“Dealer associations in at least two states — Virginia and California — sent Volvo letters warning that the strategy might violate the automaker's dealer agreements or state laws meant to prevent automakers from competing with their franchises.”Plans are to use the UK as a proving ground and learning environment for the brandFollowing the TikTok trend of stolen Kia and Hyundai vehicles, the automaker is set to provide a software update to mitigate the risk to owners.Way back on Nov. 23, we talked about how a St. Louis dealership was installing $200 bluetooth repeaters to prevent theft.Hyundai's free software patch will be available on 1M out of the 4M affected vehicles, and include an anti-theft sticker to deter attack, a longer alarm, and the need for a physical key to start the vehicle.“Hyundai is committed to ensuring the quality and integrity of our products through continuous improvement and is pleased to provide affected customers with an additional theft deterrent through this software upgrade,” said Randy Parker, CEO, Hyundai Motor America. “We have prioritized the upgrade's availability for owners and lessees of our highest selling vehicles and those most targeted by thieves in order for dealers to service them first.”Hyundai expects to have a fix for the other 3M vulnerable vehicles in June.The consumer price index was released yesterday, showing slowing inflation, and markets stayed stable despite growth in major index categories like food and energy.The average of all items was up 6.4%, with eggs taking the top spot up over 70% YOY.Vehicles took an 11.6% dip, which we know in the industry, which is a line item attached to only a small subset of the population, in contrast to the other items.Worth noting is the fact that common household items are the largest factors to consider in the impact of inflation on consumers in lower income brackets.“It's clear that the Federal Reserve has more to do in order to continue to slow down inflation,” said Eugenio Aleman, chief economist at Raymond James.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/ Read our most recent email at: https://www.asotu.com/media/push-back-email Share your positive dealer stories: https://www.asotu.com/positivity ASOTU Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/automotivestateoftheunion

Another episode in December, another Christmas movie(and another non Holiday specific one)! First up, after a Christmas-y intro, they talk the return on much of the original cast from the holiday classic for A Christmas Story Christmas from HBO Max. Then, after a lengthy news segment and Neil trying to contains his inimitable nerd-rage, they talk Spielberg's deeply personal new movie, The Fabelmans.A Christmas Story Christmas is a 2022 American Christmas comedy film directed by Clay Kaytis with a script he co-wrote with Nick Schenk, from an original story co-written by Schenk and Peter Billingsley. It is a legacy sequel to A Christmas Story (1983) and is the eighth installment in the Parker Family Saga franchise. The film was produced by Billingsley and Vince Vaughn along with Cale Boyter, Jay Ashenfelter, Marc Toberoff and Irwin Zwilling. Billingsley reprises his role as Ralphie Parker alongside Ian Petrella, Scott Schwartz, R. D. Robb, Zack Ward, and Yano Anaya returning as Randy Parker, Flick, Schwartz, Scut Farkus, and Grover Dill, respectively. Erinn Hayes, River Drosche, and Julianna Layne play Ralphie's wife and kids, with Julie Hagerty (replacing Melinda Dillon from the original film) as Mrs. Parker. In the film, after the Old Man dies, Ralphie takes his family to his childhood home, reuniting with his mom and old friends, while being tasked to deliver a memorable Christmas.The Fabelmans is a 2022 American coming-of-age drama film directed by Steven Spielberg and written and produced by Tony Kushner and Spielberg. It is a semi-autobiographical story loosely based on Spielberg's adolescence and first years as a filmmaker, told through an original story of the fictional Sammy Fabelman, a young aspiring filmmaker who explores how the power of films can help him see the truth about his dysfunctional family and those around him. The film features an ensemble cast that includes Gabriel LaBelle as Sammy, with Michelle Williams, Paul Dano, Seth Rogen, and Judd Hirsch in supporting roles. The film is dedicated to the memories of Spielberg's real-life parents Leah Adler and Arnold Spielberg, who died in 2017 and 2020, respectively.Check out more movie review podcasts on https://w2mnet.com/

Ian Petrella Interview “We're naturally meant to be connected, so we're starting to get tired of being disconnected.” — Dianne A. Allen This week on the Someone Gets Me Podcast, I interviewed Ian Petrella. Ian Petrella started his acting career at the age of three, a suggestion by an Aunt who worked at the Herb Tannen Talent Agency. Ian was presented a contract and a S.A.G. card after his very first audition. Through the years he appeared in numerous television commercials and T.V. shows. In 1983 Ian landed the part of Randy Parker in the now classic holiday film "A Christmas Story". It wouldn't be till later in his career when Ian would receive any kind of recognition for the role, but it was this film that put him into the hearts of millions. Ian continues to tour and make appearances during the holiday season along with the rest of the cast of "A Christmas Story", bringing back fond memories to thousands of fans old and new. See what he is up to now on this week’s Someone Gets Me Podcast. Part One of ‘Ian Petrella Interview’ Attending auditions has been a normal routine for Ian when he was young and by the time he got his big break, he was so proud of it and managed to balance his excitement and professionalism as an eight-year-old actor.  In 1983, Ian landed the part of Randy Parker in the now classic holiday film "A Christmas Story". This film elevated his career. Now, he is an amazing, talented adult, living his vision, everything from improv and puppetry and other forms of acting. “You're going to be put on screen, and everybody's going to love you. But if you're not prepared for it, it can go to your head, and you could do some damaging things.” – Dianne A. Allen  Improv is something that he wanted to pursue for a long time. He’s eager to follow the footsteps of his so-called heroes, the people he admires the most.   Ian also shares that the hardest thing about improv is it's not always about going for the joke or punch line. Improv is completely different from that. It's really more about listening to other people you're working with on stage. It's all about give and take.   Part Two of ‘Ian Petrella Interview’ Another interesting thing about Ian is that he’s attracted to puppetry because it feeds his creativity. Growing up, he loved watching puppets until he got into it later on as an adult. There was a time when he was only a production assistant and asked the director if he could play with the puppets.  That opened up an opportunity for his potential to be seen. Thus, he started working on different projects with that company. The 90s was a challenging time to get into puppetry because computers were coming in.  “Hollywood is a big game of "follow the leader." Whoever comes up with a good idea first, that's who you follow after that.” – Dianne A. Allen  In today’s digital era, puppetry is starting to make a good comeback. People sense nostalgia when they see a puppet. The most exciting part about it is that you’re acting using your voice and having to give all your emotions through body language to make that moment seem more alive.  Ian decided it was time to come home, not to L.A., but to San Francisco, where he studied film and performed puppetry independently for film and stage. While in school Ian discovered animation.  This was a good discovery since Ian was running out of money to perform and make puppets. Ian still continues his passion with cartooning to this day. Ian Petrella Full Bio Ian Petrella started his acting career at the age of three, a suggestion by an Aunt who worked at the Herb Tannen Talent Agency. Ian was presented a contract and a S.A.G. card after his very first audition. Through the years he appeared in numerous television commercials and T.V. shows.  Through his teen years Ian continued acting, and later began to study comedy improv. He trained at L.A's famous Groundlings Comedy Theater. At age 17 he was the youngest person ever to audition, and be accepted to attend classes. Performing for small audiences around L.A. Ian earned his comedy chops. Acting wasn't enough for Ian's creative juices; he wanted to explore more avenues of the entertainment business. He got a small gig as a P.A. on a new puppet show. Ian discovered that he was pretty good with puppets and that begin his career as a puppeteer. This landed him a few gigs on Ninja Turtles, Power Rangers, and a great opportunity to work on a Jim Henson project. After the millennium the work seemed to slow down and Ian quit acting and show business altogether. He turned in his S.A.G. card for a passport and left for Europe. During his six-month escape, Ian got a chance to study and learn the art of marionette puppetry in the Czech Republic. As destiny would have it, Ian received a call from a gentleman inviting him to the 20th anniversary of "A Christmas Story". Rekindling with cast members and friends from his past, prompted Ian to give Hollywood another shot. With a new spark of inspiration to get his name back in the spotlight, Ian could once again re-light a fire that he thought died out a long time ago. Settling back in Los Angeles CA., Ian co-founded a production company creating web content and producing various animated shorts.  How to Connect with Dianne A.

As part of the 2006 Java Time Christmas Special, Steve Kramarck interviews Ian Petrella (Randy Parker)

With Americans going into and out of and into quarantine again, there has been an explosion in the use of telehealth during the COVID-19 epidemic. Telehealth refers broadly to electronic and telecommunications technologies and services used to provide care and services at-a-distance. The biggest barriers to telehealth—namely, government and payer resistance and HIPAA patient privacy restrictions—came crumbling down amid the COVID-19 pandemic, reports the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota. Telehealth is now at a tipping point that has driven a new way of thinking in the sense of how efficient and powerful these tools can be for health care consumer and provider alike. Today we talk with telehealth pioneer Randy Parker, Founder and CEO of Genius Rx, a full-service, online pharmacy that officially launched this month to make access to medicines, OTC products, and wellness supplements simple, intuitive, and personal but at-a-distance. Randy, who is also the Founder and former CEO of MDLIVE, brings more than 30 years of experience starting and building successful, disruptive, consumer-focused companies using the latest technologies. ◘ Related Content GeniusRx https://welcome.geniusrx.com/app/ Implications for Telehealth in a Postpandemic Future https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2766369 Telehealth: A Balanced Look at Incorporating This Technology Into Practice https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/2377960818786504 Barriers and Facilitators That Influence Telemedicine-Based, Real-Time, Online Consultation at Patients' Homes: Systematic Literature Review https://www.jmir.org/2020/2/e16407/ Pandemic triggers big swings in prescription drug use https://abcnews.go.com/Health/wireStory/pandemic-triggers-big-swings-prescription-drug-71118246 ◘ Transcript https://bit.ly/3jIUoHd ◘ This podcast features the song “Follow Your Dreams” (freemusicarchive.org/music/Scott_Ho…ur_Dreams_1918) by Scott Holmes, available under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial (01https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/) license. ◘ Disclaimer: The content and information shared in GW Integrative Medicine is for educational purposes only and should not be taken as medical advice.

Randy Parker, vice president of national sales for Hyundai Motor America, says the automaker is positioned for a stronger sales rebound after getting dealers to load up on existing inventory during the early days of the pandemic.

In the face of social distancing to prevent further spread of coronavirus, telemedicine has emerged as the best, and most viable method to ensure patients have access to medical consults and care. And while this is by no means new technology, it is experiencing unprecedented demand and ease of regulations to help support our healthcare system during this crisis. But will these temporary changes pave the way to a more permanent place at the table for telemedicine? And will broader telehealth initiatives persist after the pandemic subsides? In this episode, we discuss the intricacies and opportunities of this extraordinary moment for telemedicine, the growing importance of virtual care and its place in telehealth, and what these changes imply for the healthcare industry as a whole.

On this episode of AGP I welcome Kenny Keen from Midnight Horizon to the show. In 1996 Midnight Horizon Comics was founded by Kenny Keen as a small press comic book company. While honing his skills he made his first attempt at publishing the rough and gritty, action packed SLAYER : One Shot. This was a character that he had created as a child and was done in vein of a lot of indy 90's properties such as The Crow, Razor, and Frank Miller's Batman run. Dark, edgy comics was everywhere back then but the market became flooded with them and Slayer which still had an ameraturish look to it went on hiatis for a bit. Jumping into the small press scene, Kenny then published some of his older Expulse comics and contributing art chores to a few small press comics. He later picked back up on Slayer as a series and also partnered up with Highburn Studios and contributed lettering for several of their comics. Realising that Slayer was going in the wrong direction and not yet ready to put his mark on the comic book industry, Kenny pulled back before finishing issue 5 and plans a revamp and relaunch for the character that he holds close to his heart., He then went on to publish an updated Expulse #1 written by Keen with art by Lyle Pollard followed by Ruthless #0 written by Randy Parker with art by Pollard once more, and inks by Keen, Michael Watkins, John Anderson, and Pollard. Pulling back from the Super Hero scene, Keen then focused on a new horror antholgy idea back in 2008 and launched the yearly published "Horrific Tales Anthology." The book would run for four years collecting stories from several talented, upcoming writers and artists. The company now has grown and matured from it's small press days and has bigger goals on where it's headed in the future. It has a focus on the darker, edgier side of comics. Horror, Vigilante Justice, Edgy Super Hero Adventures, Gritty Cartoons and Mature Slice of Life comics are what genres we will be covering. Something for everyone.
