Music possesses an almost magical ability to transform our emotional state, and nowhere is this more evident than with songs deliberately crafted to elicit joy. On this episode of Super Awesome Mix, we're returning to a favorite theme with Pure Joy Mix Volume 2, featuring twelve tracks scientifically engineered to boost your mood and put an irresistible smile on your face.We've structured this mix as a friendly competition between hosts, with Matt's selections comprising Side A and Samer's picks making up Side B. From the moment you press play, you'll feel the rush of dopamine that comes from Wham!'s iconic "Wake Me Up Before You Go-Go" and its instantly recognizable "jitterbug" intro. The journey continues through nostalgic hits like Blue Swede's "Hooked on a Feeling" and modern gems including Wet Leg's subversively joyful "Chaise Longue."Throughout our musical exploration, we unpack what makes certain songs universally uplifting – whether it's the infectious energy of Stevie Wonder's horns, the whistle-heavy hooks of Peter Bjorn and John that physically encourage smiling, or the self-affirming lyrics from Fitz and the Tantrums that remind us to "shine like the sun." We discover that joy comes in many forms: nostalgia, humor, empowerment, and the celebration of life's simple pleasures.This episode doesn't just offer a mood-lifting playlist. It provides insights into how different musical elements – from surprising intros that capture attention to lyrics that promote present-moment appreciation – work together to create an emotional response that's greater than the sum of its parts.

Professor Samer Abboud from Villanova University is an expert on Syrian politics. He joins us to discuss the intricacies of Syria's political history from 1946 to the present, including the impact of French colonial rule, frequent coups, the United Arab Republic, the rise and governance of the Ba'ath Party, and the shift towards crony capitalism in the 2000s. Abboud shares insights on the lived experiences of Syrians through various political changes, the role of the military, and the economic philosophies underpinning different regimes. He also delves into the contemporary relevance of this history and offers a reading list for those interested in learning more about Syria.00:00 Introduction 02:27 Overview of Syrian Political History02:56 French Colonial Rule and Frequent Coups08:21 United Arab Republic (UAR) and Its Impact16:43 Ba'ath Party and the 1963 Coup30:55 Brutality and Efficiency of the Regime33:36 21st Century Syrian Politics41:16 Role of Security Apparatus and Loyalty47:38 Journalistic Perspectives on Syria57:49 Recommended Readings and Films on SyriaSamer Abboud is Associate Professor of Global Interdisciplinary Studies at Villanova University and the author of Syria (Polity, 2018), a book that explores the outbreak and trajectory of the Syrian uprising.

Samer joined the Fatah party in Palestine at the early age of 14 during the first Intifada. At the age of 15, he was arrested and had to spend 5 years in jail in Israel. After his prison sentence, Samer was elected as international secretary for the Fatah Youth. He was later elected as a head of International and Israeli relations on the Fatah Supreme Committee. For over 35 years, Samer has worked tirelessly to build bridges, engage in dialogue, and fight for a future where Israelis and Palestinians recognize each other's humanity. Samer hopes to end suffering as a political weapon to spread the courage to feel each other's pain and to find a path to lasting peace for both Israel and Palestine.Twitter: https://x.com/SSinijlawiInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ssinijlawi/

Världens klimatsystem hänger ihop, så geoengineering för bättre klimat i en region kan påverka andra regioner negativt. Men vem styr och tar beslut om vad som får göras framöver? Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Det saknas internationell styrning och lagstiftning kring geoengineering, att försöka manipulera klimatet. Det är ett problem, samtidigt som det också är svårt att se hur världen skulle kunna enas kring de här frågorna, menar den norska klimatforskaren Helene Muri. Men med all avancerad teknologi vi har, borde vi istället för forskning kring möjlig symptomlindring satsa allt på att hålla oss inom och respektera planetens gränser, menar Åsa Larsson Blind från Samerådet. Medverkar gör också klimatforskaren John Moore och professorn i filosofi Orri Stefánsson.Reporter: Ylva Carlqvist Warnborgvet@sr.seProducent: Lars Broströmlars.brostrom@sr.se

What makes Third Eye Blind a standout band from the 90s era? Join Matt and Samer as we reminisce about the unforgettable impact of their music, exploring why their debut album remains a top contender among the best of its time. Alongside Samer's all-time favorite track, "Narcolepsy," we weave tales from the band's history, spotlighting Stephen Jenkins as the constant force behind their evolving sound. Venture into the deeper, sometimes darker, corners of Third Eye Blind's discography with us as we shine a light on their second album, "Blue." With tracks like "Never Let You Go" and "Wounded," the band masterfully intertwines upbeat melodies with poignant themes of heartbreak and recovery. We explore how their innovative use of spoken word elements paved the way for future bands, such as Imagine Dragons, to tackle heavy topics while maintaining a captivating alt-rock vibe. The journey doesn't stop there. As we move through the band's later albums, from "Ursa Major" to "Dopamine," we witness their artistic growth and adaptability. The band's storytelling matures with each album, capturing deeper narratives and personal themes, like the rumored breakup with Charlize Theron in "Say It." From the ethereal vibes of "We Are Drugs" to the empowering sounds of "Screamer," featuring Alexis Krauss, Third Eye Blind shows us why they remain a relevant force in today's music scene. https://open.spotify.com/playlist/1MHiQQ9ySBy9tykI4Uvs2m?si=4a726dc99adf4856https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/super-awesome-intro-to-third-eye-blind/pl.u-d2b0MoltLKN0YEA1.

Sodo au taulo za kike, vile vile pedi,  ni muhimu kwa wanawake na  wasichana, lakini wengi hawawezi kuzipata wakati wa vita na ukimbizi. Leo tunakutana na Samer, mvulana huyu ambaye akiwa na umri wa miaka 16 tu, kwa msaada wa klabu ya  usafi ya shirika la Umoja wa Mataifa la kuhudumia Watoto UNICEF, anatengeneza na kusambaza sodo kwa wanawake na wasichana katika maeneo ya wakimbizi wa ndani jimboni Atbara, nchini Sudan. Msaada wa kifedha kutoka  Mfuko wa dharura wa Umoja wa Mataifa CERF, vilabu vya usafi vya UNICEF, na Shirika la Marekani la misaada ya maendeleo USAID,  vijana wakimbizi wa ndani wanawezeshwa kupata suluhisho kwa changamoto za usafi wanazokutana nazo, wakati wa vita na ukimbizi. Mmoja wa vijana hawa wakimbizi ni Samer mvulana mwenye umri wa miaka 16, ambaye amefundishwa kutengeneza sodo na sasa, anazisambaza bure kwa wanawake na wasichana wakimbizi wa ndani katika jimbo la Atbara, nchini Sudan.Nikataka kujua jinsi Samer anatengeneza sodo hizo…"Nashona kati ya vipande kumi na tano hadi ishirini kwa siku. Kwanza, nakata sponji au sifongo, kisha naweka ndani ya kitambaa. Naishona na kuongeza kifungo ili kuifunga vizuri."Kwa nini Samer, katika umri wa miaka 16, anatengeneza sodo"Hiki ndicho wasichana na akina mama wanachohitaji zaidi wakati wa ukimbizi, lakini hakipatikani. Ikiwa hawatumii sodo, huenda wasiweze kusafiri au kutembea kwa uhuru. Kwa hiyo, nazitengeneza na kuwapatia bure kwa ajili yao kutumia. Kwa sababu ya vita, watu hawana pesa za kununua pedi, kwa hiyo nazitengeneza na kuzisambaza. Sodo hizi zinaweza kufuliwa na kutumika tena. Pedi nyingi ni   hutumiwa mara moja tu, na watu wanalazimika kununua mpya kila wakati."Je nini kilimpa Samer hamasa ya kutengeneza sodo, na anajisikia vipi anapoifanya kazi hii?"Nilipojiunga na warsha ya UNICEF, nilianza kusaidia familia yangu kwa kuwatengenezea sodo. Napokea vifaa kutoka  kiwanda cha UNICEF. Nilipoanza kutengeneza sodo, nilihisi furaha kujua kuwa kuna watu wanaozihitaji. Baadhi yao, hawana pesa na wanakabiliwa na changamoto. Sijihisi aibu kwa kile ninachofanya, kwa sababu kutimiza mahitaji ya watu ni muhimu zaidi kuliko kitu kingine chochote."

What happens when catchy tunes mask unsettling and problematic lyrics? Join Matt and Samer for a candid and thought-provoking journey through music history as we uncover the dark realities behind some of the most popular songs. We start with the Black Eyed Peas' "Let's Get It Started," originally rife with offensive language, only to be cleaned up thanks to the NBA's intervention. We then discuss Cher's "Half-Breed," reflecting on her series of similarly themed songs and how they shine a light on evolving societal standards and the need for mindful consumption of music.In this episode, we tackle the dissonance between melody and message by dissecting Sublime's "Wrong Way" and Benny Mardones' "Into the Night." Catchy, yes, but these tracks come with disturbing themes that raise serious ethical questions. Our exploration doesn't stop there; we also critique Genesis' "Illegal Alien" for its outdated portrayal of Mexican stereotypes and take a closer look at the flirtatious yet potentially coercive undertones of the holiday classic "Baby, It's Cold Outside." Through modern reinterpretations, we examine how the song's lyrics resonate—or don't—in today's context.Rounding off our discussion, we analyze the cultural insensitivity and lack of research that plagued pre-internet era songs like Band-Aid's "Do They Know It's Christmas?" and George Jones' "The Poor Chinee." Misguided intentions and offensive stereotypes are laid bare, prompting us to question the responsibilities of artists and platforms in handling such content today. https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/cancel-these-songs/pl.u-8dqGjTZrAMJ1.
