In this heartfelt, humorous, and deeply human conversation, Ian sits down with longtime friend — artist, filmmaker, professor, and Enneagram Seven — Steve Taylor. You may know him as the legendary provocateur who "invented irony for Christians," but in this episode, we explore the terrain beneath the creativity, the energy, and the relentless forward motion that has defined so much of his life. Together we wade into the deeper waters of the second half of life — aging, character, grief, spiritual maturity, limitations, and the sacred invitation to move from doing to being. Steve speaks candidly about the shifting landscape of life at 67: the habits that no longer serve him the tender emergence of compassion learning to sit with grief rather than outrun it the uncomfortable art of slowing down how filmmaking and teaching have reshaped his inner life and the courageous (and often comical) struggle of a Seven learning to live in the present moment We talk about marriage, mortality, the ache of unfinished dreams, the sweetness of gratitude, the pains and gifts of aging, and the spiritual practices that are slowly rewiring Steve's relationship with presence. Tune in to hear this rich conversation about Enneagram transformation, emotional intelligence, creativity, and the inner work of becoming whole.     ABOUT STEVE TAYLOR Steve Taylor is a filmmaker, writer, producer and recording artist who earned his "Renaissance Man" stripes (Prism Magazine) from a body of work that's garnered him multiple Grammy, Billboard, Telly, Addy and Dove awards and nominations. A southern California native, he was raised in Denver, Colo., and studied music and film at Colorado University. In 1983, Taylor began a career as a recording artist that spanned 12 years, selling over one million albums worldwide and garnering him two Grammy nominations for "Meltdown" (1984) and "Squint" (1993). In the process, he made history as the only artist to twice win Billboard Music Video Awards for self-directed music videos. As a concert artist, Taylor headlined four international tours, including acclaimed appearances at L.A.'s Universal Amphitheater and London's Hammersmith Odeon. He was also lead singer in the MCA-signed modern rock band Chagall Guevara. Follow on Facebook or Instagram Sketch Film Website

Barry Avrich is a Renaissance man, and his creativity knows no boundaries. From crafting brilliant advertising campaigns for Les Misérables, The Phantom of the Opera, and Frank Sinatra's final concerts to directing over fifty documentaries that expose the power, ego, and humanity behind fame, he's lived by one lesson from his father—don't blend in. In this conversation, Barry opens up about his unlikely path from Montreal to the Silver Screen, the thin line between ambition and addiction to power, and why storytelling is his calling. We explore the making of The Last Mogul, Prosecuting Evil, and The Road Between Us, and his belief that movies can still change hearts, minds, and even history. This year, Barry is being honoured with the 2025 Horatio Alger Award, one of Canada's most distinguished recognitions. The award celebrates Canadians who have triumphed over adversity to achieve extraordinary success while giving back to others. For Barry, whose films often illuminate resilience and moral courage, the award feels like the story coming full circle.

This month we tackle a topic we haven't talked much about...Forced Retirements. Anthony Napolitano had a very successful career in the high-tech world. Then he was laid off not once, but twice by two big corporations right around when he was 50 years old. That was two years ago, and since then he has plunged into the world of early retirement with great enthusiasm, (which is an understatement.) His friends joke that he doesn't have a "Type A personality," he has a "Type-Anthony personality".  Anthony has an analytical mind and devised a personalized Life Retirement Plan. He bases his plan on the four pillars of Health, Mindset, Purpose and Relationships. He even grades himself every year. He was a star baseball player in high school and then went on to play four years of college division 1 baseball at Loyola-Marymount College. So in (un)retirement, Anthony is a natural as a high school coach. He loves being the assistant coach for the girls volleyball team. He also works as a wine educator at a local winery in his tiny mountain town of Julian, CA, just outside of San Diego. He does a little bit of everything at the winery, from picking grapes to hosting wine tasting events. You will love Anthony. He's full of wonder and personality. Although Carl points out that he is the star of the podcast, Anthony clearly steals this month's show. • More about Anthony Napolitano: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthonynapolitano • Anthony's Blog "For the Napos": https://forthenapos.com • Episode Content: https://pickleballmediahq.com/blog/anthony-napolitano-interview-rorced-into-early-retirement-and-now-a-renaissance-man • Sponsored by How to Retire and Not Die:  https://garysirak.com/how-to-retire-and-not-die • Sponsored by Capital Advantage: https://capitaladvantage.com/promotion/retirement-planning-guide • I Used to be Somebody World Tours:  https://pickleballmediahq.com/tour/all-tours • Subscribe to I Used to be Somebody newsletter:  https://pickleballmediahq.com/contact/subscribe  

If anyone would know what it takes to be a modern-day “Renaissance Man”, it would be Doug Casey, who was described by his co-author as a mix of James Bond, Indiana Jones, and Socrates. His new book with Matt & Maxim Smith, “The Preparation”, is a workbook for families who know there is a better way to invest the most important years of a person's life than college. The four years are split into 16 cycles, where you will build a variety of skills, all while traveling the world to experience the culture and grow an international contact list. You will learn to fly a plane in Alaska, study to become a chef in Europe, sail around the tip of South America, learn to fight in Thailand, and get licensed to operate heavy machinery in the USA, all while becoming an EMT, cowboy, welder, hacker, and farmer. It is the ultimate education to make someone bulletproof to whatever the system throws our way. — Guest Links: The Preparation: https://amzn.to/477bSIc International Man: https://internationalman.com/  — Watch the video version on one of the Macroaggressions Channels: Rumble: https://rumble.com/c/Macroaggressions  YouTube: https://youtube.com/channel/UCn3GlVLKZtTkhLJkiuG7a-Q?si=DvKo2lcQhzo8Vuqu  — MACRO & Charlie Robinson Links Hypocrazy Audiobook: https://amzn.to/4aogwms The Octopus of Global Control Audiobook: https://amzn.to/3xu0rMm Website: www.Macroaggressions.io  Merch Store: https://macroaggressions.dashery.com/  Link Tree: https://linktr.ee/macroaggressionspodcast Activist Post Family Activist Post: www.ActivistPost.com  Natural Blaze: www.NaturalBlaze.com  Support Our Sponsors C60 Power: https://go.shopc60.com/PBGRT/KMKS9/ | Promo Code: MACRO Chemical Free Body: https://chemicalfreebody.com/macro/ | Promo Code: MACRO Wise Wolf Gold & Silver: https://macroaggressions.gold/ | (800) 426-1836 LegalShield: www.DontGetPushedAround.com  EMP Shield: www.EMPShield.com | Promo Code: MACRO Christian Yordanov's Health Program: www.LiveLongerFormula.com/macro  Above Phone: https://abovephone.com/macro/ Van Man: https://vanman.shop/?ref=MACRO | Promo Code: MACRO The Dollar Vigilante: https://dollarvigilante.spiffy.co/a/O3wCWenlXN/4471  Nesa's Hemp: www.NesasHemp.com | Promo Code: MACRO Augason Farms: https://augasonfarms.com/MACRO  —

Designed as an alternative to traditional education paths, the book aims to transform young men into well-rounded, competent individuals capable of shaping the world around them. They delve into the origins of the book, its structure, and its 16 unique cycles that cover a wide range of practical skills and academic knowledge. The authors emphasize the importance of becoming a 'universal man'—someone who is not just knowledgeable but also morally sound and physically capable. They critique the current education system, discuss the disadvantages of following conventional paths like college, and propose a new, hands-on approach to education. The discussion also touches on the importance of mentorship and the concept of a patron-client relationship. The book is presented as a much-needed guide for young men to lead a meaningful and successful life. 00:00 Introduction and Setting the Scene 00:52 Discussing the Book: The Preparation 01:47 The Concept of the Renaissance Man 04:31 Critique of Modern Education 08:18 Alternative Paths for Young Men 22:32 The Importance of Personal Codes and Reflection 36:12 Introduction to Life Skills Cycles 36:20 Building Practical Skills: From Construction to Culinary Arts 38:09 Heavy Equipment Operation and Welding 39:48 Martial Arts Training in Thailand 43:17 Sailing Adventures and Survival Skills 46:49 Farming and Entrepreneurship 48:54 Investing and Technology Hacking 50:28 The Maker Cycle and Novel Actions 58:25 Mentorship and Intergenerational Relationships 01:06:10 Conclusion and Book Availability

For this SUMMER ENCORE EPISODE on Seafair Weekend in Seattle, Feliks Banel presents a tribute to late Pacific Northwest DJ and pop culture renaissance man - and longtime hydro race announcer - Pat O'Day on this broadcast of CASCADE OF HISTORY. With a vintage aircheck and two long excerpts from an oral history recorded by WSU Professor Hugh Rundell in the late 1970s, we hear directly from Pat O'Day about his early influences and his peripatetic radio career around the Evergreen State (and a corner of the Beaver State). O'Day, born Paul Berg, made his Seattle debut on KAYO – and introduced his “Pat O'Day” deejay name – on February 1, 1959. O'Day passed away on August 4, 2020. This encore broadcast of CASCADE OF HISTORY was presented at 8pm Pacific Standard Time on Sunday, August 3, 2025 via SPACE 101.1 FM and streaming live via space101fm.org from studios at historic Magnuson Park – formerly Sand Point Naval Air Station - on the shores of Lake Washington in Seattle. The original broadcast was presented on January 21, 2024.

Five years ago I interviewed a young chap who was making a living as a musician. A week ago I attended his latest album release party at Asbury Lanesand, wow! I can't rave enough about his band, We Used to Cut the Grass.  We talked about Frank Zappa's influence on his music - and Zappa's misogyny - as well as his attitude toward different music genres, from rap to classical to country. His opinions might surprise you! Here's a link to Cody's YouTube channel. Check it out! https://www.youtube.com/user/vestibulemusic/about    Pardon the background noise.

Cautious Clay and I spent the first ten minutes of this episode talking about the role that painting plays in his creative process. Then a few minutes later, the topic turned to the through line between basketball and songwriting. And later he mentioned that planks and stretching are a part of his writing ritual. He also plays seven (at least) instruments: drums, bass, guitar, piano, sax, flute, and vocals. Cautious Clay is a true Renaissance Man--who was also sampled by Taylor Swift. His album The Hours: Morning is out on Concord Records.

St. Hildegard of Bingen (1098-1179) was a visionary, teacher, Abbess, composer, theologian, painter, and the first woman in history to be given papal approval to preach in public. Four centuries before the emergence of the “Renaissance Man,” there was Hildegard of Bingen. Usually known mostly for her music (and rightfully so) there is so much more to this medieval mystic.

Recorded at Kimes Ranch in the Fort Worth Stockyards, this episode features Gerry Gesell, a ranch manager, leather craftsman, polo player, cow horse competitor, podcast host, and actor. Gerry's brand, "Many Irons", born from the mantra “many irons in the fire,” connects cowboys, surfers, and firefighters through shared stories and wearable art.  Gerry discusses transitioning from high-speed polo pony training to cow horse showing, reflecting on humbling lessons from recent competitions. He delves into his creative process behind "Laundromat Texas", a short film premiering July 27, 2025, at Dallas's Texas Theater, capturing Far West Texas's misfit spirit. From racing a train on a three-year-old colt for a Tecovas commercial to crafting artistic chaps for Teskey's, Gerry's passion for creation shines. He shares the vulnerability of writing on Instagram, the authenticity of his podcast "There's Always Something to Chase", and the horseman's paradox—asking horses to risk all while keeping us safe. With humor, heart, and rapid-fire revelations—like his love for Rancho Deluxe, fear of heights, and a gum-in-hair middle-school kiss fail—this episode celebrates chasing dreams and embracing failure. Enjoy the show! This episode is brought to you by Kimes Ranch and Kerry Kelley Bits and Spurs. 

Send us a textWhat happens when uncertainty becomes your superpower? In this riveting conversation with Christian Ray Flores—entrepreneur, high-performance coach, and philanthropist—we explore how extreme adversity can transform into extraordinary strength.Christian's story reads like a gripping novel: witnessing military coups, living as a refugee while his father was imprisoned in a concentration camp, observing civil wars unfold, and seeing the Soviet empire collapse firsthand. Rather than being crushed under these experiences, Christian developed what he calls "anti-fragility"—the ability to not merely survive uncertainty but to thrive because of it. "The biggest risk you can take is not taking any risks," he shares, revealing how this mindset propelled him from trauma to becoming a top pop artist across Eastern Europe in his twenties, and later, a successful entrepreneur and coach. His formula is surprisingly simple: push 20% beyond your comfort zone while maintaining 80% within it—consistently, daily.The conversation takes a fascinating turn as Christian evaluates his life across five dimensions: mental health, physical health, community service, spirituality, and relationships. His perfect score in community service stems from 25 years of philanthropic work across four continents, including founding the Ascend Academy for children in Africa. His spiritual practice includes the transformative power of Sabbath—a weekly ritual of divorcing identity from productivity and experiencing pure joy.Perhaps most striking is Christian's approach to relationships, particularly his 25-year marriage where "the spark" remains vibrantly alive. His secret? "Your job is to make your wife radiant with joy." This isn't just a poetic sentiment but backed by systems: weekly dates, daily breakfasts prepared, annual marriage retreats (never missed in 25 years), and regular vacations together.Ready to redefine what success means in your life? Christian's insights reveal that fulfillment isn't one-dimensional but requires balanced growth across all domains of life. Take his free assessment at exponentiallife.co to discover where you stand and what might need your attention next.To Learn more about Christian: Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/christianrayflores To Reach Jordan:Email: Jordan@Edwards.Consulting Youtube:https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC9ejFXH1_BjdnxG4J8u93Zw Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jordan.edwards.7503 Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jordanfedwards/ Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jordanedwards5/ Hope you find value in this.

Leonardo Da Vinci started his artistic journey at the age of 14, beginning as a studio boy to Andrea del Verrocchio. Verrocchio taught Leo the ropes in sculpting, painting, casting, leather work, amongst other things, until Da Vinci stepped in to paint a couple angels in a mostly complete "The Last Baptism". Verrocchio looked at his work, looked at Da Vinci's and legend has it he set down his brush for good at that point, seeing himself surpassed already by Da Vinci's talent. Achieving the status of Master at age 20, Da Vinci would embark upon a lifetime of creating Art, developing machines and mechanical theories, studying and documenting human anatomy, building weapons and more. The very definition of a Renaissance Man in every way, join us as we go deep into Da Vinci. Support the show

Send us a textThe Court of Lorenzo de' Medici Part 1: Lorenzo the Magnificent To engage Lorenzo de' Medici's court in Florence, there is no better topic to introduce the subject than the man himself. This episode takes a glance at the life of Lorenzo as the quintessential "Renaissance Man." In his lifetime, not only was he a devoted head of his family, but a clever statesman, a patron of art, literature, and philosophy, and an exceptional architect and poet. More masterfully, Lorenzo had to combine all of these to create decades of cultural production which made concrete the fledgling ideas of his grandfather Cosimo into what we define today as the Renaissance. Through his civic engagement, Lorenzo inspired a generation of patronage that would not only inspire Florentines, but the wider world of European nobility. Central to Lorenzo's narrative is the bloody drama of the Pazzi Conspiracy, the graceful beauty of large-scale mythological painting, and the revival of carnal and evocative vernacular poetry. Follow us/shop/watch: https://linktr.ee/italian_renaissance_podcastGet additional content by becoming a Patron: patreon.com/TheItalianRenaissancePodcast Support the show

Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino are back behind the microphones for another episode of the Helium Boys Podcast, a serious non-serious USC football podcast. The Helium Boys return to break down the Trojans' thrilling come-from-behind, last-second 35-31 victory over Texas A&M in the Las Vegas Bowl and discuss the perpetual redesign of the Trojans' roster for the 2025 season. The episode opens with the Helium Boys staple 'Two-Minute Drill' that features Shotgun discussing the epic finish to Kyle Ford's collegiate career before Chris uses his 'Two-Minute Drill' to focus primarily on his love affair with the Pop Tarts Bowl. That leads to a discussion about the Helium Boys traveling to cover or at least attend the 2025 Pop Tarts Bowl with Chris making the declaration that he will get a Pop Tarts Bowl tattoo in exchange for VIP access/treatment from the Pop Tarts Bowl. Chris and Shotgun then dive into their Stock Up/Stock Down segment looking at the players and themes that saw their stock rise or dip after the bowl game, starting with what positive developments happen before the team traveled to Las Vegas as Kamari Ramsey and Emmanuel Pregnon announced their returns to the team. Ja'Kobi Lane's wild string of six consecutive receptions going for touchdowns is included as are fellow receivers Makai Lemon and Ford. USC's young offensive line gets its kudos as well. On the flip side, Shotgun and Chris discuss another up-and-down performance by quarterback Jayden Maiava as well as the confidence of and surrounding Maiava. Then Shotgun goes on a rant about Lincoln Riley's Renaissance Man attempts that have led him to be mediocre in areas he previously thrived. Some younger players that didn't get opportunities in the bowl game and the chance in receiver rotations are also featured. A discussion about the NCAA transfer portal and the impact of both the losses and acquisitions the Trojans have made since the portal opened leads to some puzzled worries from the podcast collaborators. After a break, the podcast duo answer your mailbag questions discussing the transfer portal as well as USC's searches for a linebacker coach and general manager. There are also questions about offseason momentum, offensive creativity and involvement of the tight end position. The Helium Boys also react to suggestions for the podcast for 2025 before the episode concludes with Chris quizzing Shotgun with some Take It or Leave Its about the Trojans and an Overtime period focused on New Year's Eve traditions.

Nathan Myhrvold likes to challenge conventional wisdom. When the founder and CEO of Intellectual Ventures (and former Chief Technology Officer at Microsoft) isn't running one of the world's leading invention businesses, he's busy doing norm-defying research on topics like dinosaur bone density, asteroid sizing, and the proper way to knead dough.
