Los 90s fueron más que una década, fueron una experiencia musical irrepetible. Era la época de grabar cassettes con nuestras canciones favoritas, de pasar horas viendo videoclips en MTV y de cantar cada letra como si fuera escrita para nosotros. En este episodio de Vinyl Radio, George Paz te lleva de regreso a esos años inolvidables, reviviendo los himnos que definieron una generación.

Have you ever wanted to have sex in a hot air balloon? Me neither, but now you can if you choose. Learn what your favorite month is, and how a few simple adjustments can greatly improve your life.

Plus, my conversation with Darren Hayes is both moving and hysterical, at the same time. We try to make one of your least favorite months tolerable. One last question; Could you live underwater? People are already doing it!

Australian producer Charles Fisher's resume is all over the place. Two of his earliest producing jobs were with Australian punk legends Radio Birdman followed by Air Supply! That kind of diversity continued for decades working with everyone from Olivia Newton-John to Divinyls to Jimmy Barnes to Hoodoo Gurus to Deep Blue Something (as well as more Australian artists like Moving Pictures and Ol' 55). In the 90s he hit the jackpot when he did Savage Garden's debut album that went on to sell over 15 million copies. We often discuss the effect financial success has on an artist's desire to create, but here we hear it from the producer's perspective which is a fascinating story.

Formant un duo complémentaire, l'un assumant le rôle de compositeur discret, l'autre celui de chanteur en quête de reconnaissance, ils ont su séduire les foules avec des titres simples mais efficaces, comme le inoubliable « Truly, Madly, Deeply ».Cependant, leur ascension fulgurante s'est accompagnée de tensions et de désaccords en coulisses. Tandis que Darren, le chanteur, se délectait des avantages de la célébrité, Daniel, le musicien, vivait de plus en plus mal cette exposition médiatique. Leur vision de l'avenir du groupe étant radicalement opposée, le divorce était inévitable.

Nigel's guest today is Darren Hayes. Darren became world famous as lead singer of the group Savage Garden.

The hospital annunciation & reconciliationBy NavyRigger - Listen to the Podcast at Steamy Stories.Breathlessly she broke our passionate kiss for just a moment to stare into my eyes and speak.“Dammit Kurt, If you truly love me like you say you do, fuck me and fill my pussy already. I've been aching for you to be inside me,” she said as she brought her legs to her chest and continued to passionately kiss me.I brought my legs up and started to thrust into her. Softly she moaned into my mouth as my speed picked up. I thrust into her until my legs started to shake from fatigue and weakness. I thrust into her until my legs burned with exertion. I thrust into her until I felt I couldn't thrust any more, and then I thrust some more. I watched as Riza's legs quivered and shook. I felt her stomach and abs tense under my hand, felt her back arch against my chest. Her pussy pulsed and quivered around my shaft as I filled her with my length over and over again. Finally, she screamed in pleasure into my mouth. As if on queue with her orgasm, I felt my climax crest over the edge as I squeezed her tightly and two weeks of cum began to spill into her. She shifted her hips and planted me as deep as I could go into her and held on as I bucked like a bronco. I came as I'd never came before, as twitch after twitch of my seed filled her from inside. She moaned softly as she kissed me. Her body relaxed and shuddered. It was almost like her body had been having withdrawals and was finally relieved to have my cum inside of her again. When I had finally finished, I realized I was completely drained of energy and had to break apart from our kiss to catch my breath.“Holy, shit,” I said between deep breaths, “I don't,  know,  what felt better. That kiss,  or,  finally,  cumming after,  two weeks. What, was all that, about?”Riza caressed my cheek with her thumb and rolled onto her side as she slid me out of her and tucked herself next to me on the bed, her head resting on my shoulder. I pulled the hospital blanket up around us and held her as tightly to me as I could manage. When she finally looked up at me, her eyes were wet with tears and her lip was quivering.“Riza? Baby? What's wrong,” I said as my heart sank into my stomach."I was so scared. The whole time I was so scared, Kurt. You have no idea how terrified I was sitting by your side. I was afraid to sleep because I didn't want to miss you waking up.”“Baby, it's ok. I am ok. As long as my numbers keep looking good, I should be out of here in a couple more days,” I told her reassuringly.She pounded my chest, “No dammit! You don't understand! They told me you could die, and all I could think about was how terrible my life would be without you and that I would have to raise our baby without you!”“Our baby,” I said as my whole body went tingly with excitement, "You mean that your, ”“Four weeks,” she finished for me, “And before you ask, until last night, the last time Ronny came inside me was over six weeks ago.”Suddenly I found renewed strength and held Riza tighter than I ever had and kissed her with as much passion and love as I could out me.“Oh Riza, you have no idea how happy that makes me!” I told her before kissing her some more.I realized at that moment the alarms on my monitors were going off, and I had no idea for how long. No sooner did I realize this, my doctor and nurse barrel through the privacy curtain and stop dead in their tracks and looked at me and Riza with worry and concern on their faces. My immediate reaction was panic at Riza and I finally had been caught together. Riza on the other hand didn't even budge. I watched as both the nurse and doctor went from worried looks to disappointment as both of their shoulders dropped and their hands fell to their sides.“You told him already, didn't you,” my doctor said.Riza smiled and wiped the tears from her eyes as she nodded."Aw! We missed it!” said the nurse.Before leaving, the nurse said that she would let us have some private time together and would inform us if any surprise visitors showed up.Three days later I was released from the hospital, still a bit weak, but otherwise healthy. After wheeling me downstairs, Riza helped me into the passenger seat of my car, and we drove home. Her fingers laced between mine as we pulled out of the hospital parking lot. I told her about my dream, and she said she wasn't crying, but I could see she was. I told her about how beautiful our daughter was in the dream, how happy she had looked like a mother and my wife. I told her how much I looked forward to that day coming true.As we drove down our shared street, I was suddenly alarmed as she pulled into her driveway, and not mine. She hopped out before I could say anything and opened my door.“What are we doing at your place,” I asked as she helped me out of the car."Ronny wanted to see you, so I told him I would bring you by first,” she said, but I could tell by her tone there was more to it.Unsteadily, we stepped through her front door. She reached over and flicked on the lights.“Surprise!” I heard from twenty of our closest neighbors as they appeared from nowhere.They got me, and I am pretty sure my heart skipped a beat.“Geeze! Y'all trying to kill me or something,” I said as I held a hand over my intensely beating heart.Everyone got a good laugh out of that. One by one, my neighbors came by to check on me and tell me how happy they were to see me up and moving around. Riza waited until Ronny and everyone else shuffled out to the pool area and kissed me on the cheek."I am going to go put on my bathing suit. Don't go anywhere while I am gone,” she said mockingly.“Ha ha, very funny,” I said sarcastically.Halfway down the hallway she turned and blew me a kiss, and mouthed ‘I love you', before proceeding down the hallway. A few minutes later, she came down the hallway wearing a white and blue bikini. Her breast bounced and her hips swayed as she approached. She was so incredibly hot and beautiful then and there, I couldn't help myself. I had to have her again, right now.“I have to use the bathroom. Can you give me a hand,” I asked her."Of course,” she said, her beautiful smile melting my heart as she took my hand.Slowly, she held my hand as she escorted me to the bathroom. I watched as her ass cheeks swayed from side to side, the fabric on the back of her bikini barely enough to cover her ass crack. As the bathroom door opened, the light came on and I gently shoved Riza into the bathroom.“Kurt, what are you, ” she started before I hushed her with a kiss.I pushed the door closed with my foot and hastily pulled at the strings of her bikini. A new rush of energy filled me as her bikini pieces fell to the floor. She pushed me away and held her hands out, breathing heavy.“I am sorry Riza. I don't know what has gotten into me. Maybe it's the fact you're carrying our baby, or a new perspective after almost dying, but you've never looked more beautiful to me than you do at this moment. I can't resist you this time,” I took a second to take a breath in, “I have to have you. Right here. Right now.”She stared at me for a moment and absorbed my words. Then she lunged and dropped to her knees, ripping my shorts down and helping me out of them. She grasped my cock with both of her hands and gave me a quick, sloppy blowjob. Once I was fully hard, she tugged at my cock and bent over the bathroom counter with one leg propped up on it.“Hurry, we don't have much time!” she whispered loudly, “And don't cum in me! Otherwise, I might end up fucking you in front of the whole neighborhood!”“Oh my God,” I moaned as I slipped inside of her.She wasn't just warm inside, she was hot and wetter than she had any business being. We watched together in the mirror as my cock slammed in and out of her, stretching her little pussy to its limit. She covered her mouth with both of her hands as my cock slammed against her G-spot over and over again, and as she orgasmed I added my hands to hers as she screamed in ecstasy. Her juices dripped down my shaft as her pussy gushed from her wetness, the wet, sticky sound of our love echoing through the bathroom. She reached down and played with my balls, knowing it would make me cum quicker. It didn't take long after that before I was ready to climax.“Riza, I'm going to cum!” I said as quietly as I could.She slipped me out of her, and I flexed my cock as I tried to hold back the cum. She quickly dropped to her knees and looked up at me while she opened her mouth and leaned in toward my cock. I closed my eyes and strained to hold back the building pressure. Her fingers wrapped around my cock and made one stroke and I couldn't hold back anymore. I exploded and bit my lip as I tried to cum quietly. I felt my cum erupt from my cock as I rose on my feet. Riza's hands continued to stroke me as shot after shot left me. After the euphoria of my climax subsided, I suddenly realized I didn't feel Riza's mouth on my shaft. As I opened my eyes, I saw Riza smiling proudly up at me, cum streaked across her forehead, one of her eyes, both of her cheeks, her lips, in her mouth, and all over her chin. My eyes followed a drop of cum as it fell from her chin and landed on her breasts, joining several other drops of cum scattered across them."Fuck, baby. I am so sorry," I said apologetically, but loving the gorgeous mess I'd made all over her and admiring how beautiful she was covered in my cum."Don't apologize, Babe," she said as she pointed at the mirror and rubbed my cum across the top of her breasts, "I look fucking hot with your cum all over me."She grasped my cock with both of her hands and squeezed tightly as she worked the last few drops from me. As she stuck out her tongue and leaned up to lick away the last few drops of my climax, we heard a muffled voice and laughter in the hallway and froze with fear."Hold up a sec, Joe. I gotta take a damn piss," the voice called out.Neither of us had time to contemplate what to do next. We didn't even have time to take a breath. The door swung open quickly, and Ronny stood there, entranced by what he was seeing. Riza and I were entranced with the realization we'd been caught. There we were, in the bathroom, Riza on her knees beneath my cock, both of us naked, her hands still wrapped tightly around my cock, his wife's pretty face and breasts streaked with his best friend's cum. As the last vestiges of my climax dropped from the tip of my cock onto his wife's face, Ronny went white in the face in a different manner altogether. The shattering of glass snapped us all from our trance as his beer bottle shattered on the tile of the bathroom floor.Ronny went red in the face and bellowed, "WHAT THE FUCK!"I looked in the mirror as Kurt started to get dressed. His warm cum coated my face and breasts as I looked at myself in the mirror. I should be feeling ashamed, I should be feeling remorse, I should be terrified that my marriage was coming to an end. As I used a hand towel to wipe away Kurt's cum, and quickly splashed my face with water, I started to smile. In my head, I knew smiling about this was wrong, but I couldn't help myself. Ronny had taken both of us by surprise and caught us red-handed, or in my case, cock-handed. As I wrapped a towel around myself and took Kurt's hand into mine, I was overwhelmed with a new emotion.I felt relieved. No more lies, no more sneaking around, no more being stuck in a loveless marriage. I had no doubt Ronny would maneuver for everything in the divorce. That was fine. Between Kurt and the baby, I had everything I'd ever wanted. My skin flushed with goosebumps as the exhilaration and excitement of this moment had finally arrived."Well, let's get this over with," I said as I stood on my tiptoes and kissed Kurt on the cheek.Kurt kissed my forehead and smiled sweetly down at me. He squeezed my hand gently as I put my arm around his waist, supporting him as we walked out of the bathroom together. He was putting a lot of weight on me as we shuffled slowly down the hallway. Our intense lovemaking session in the bathroom had drained him more than he would ever admit. My mind had told me not to go into that bathroom with him and that no good would come out of it. My heart and body had overruled me as I looked into Kurt's eyes and saw love, desire, fondness, and longing staring back at me through his big brown eyes. I knew what awaited us around the corner, and I knew it wasn't going to be pretty. I knew if Kurt and I could get through this, we could get through anything together.When we turned the corner, Ronny was drinking straight from a bottle of Jack Daniels as he leaned against the island countertop. Dark, hazel eyes flicked towards Kurt and me as he saw us holding one another. His face turned to a disgusted scowl, and he paced the space between the back door and the island countertop, waving a menacing finger at the two of us. His face was full of anger, full of rage, full of fury. However, I noticed there was one thing lacking from his face that might have made me even a little bit remorseful.There were no tears. Not even a hint of moisture in his eyes at all. He wasn't upset that I was cheating on him, nor he was upset that his marriage was coming to an end. He was upset because he knew his dreams of getting me pregnant and cashing in that $300,000 so he could live easy and free just went up in flames. Not to mention he was angry because his best friend, of all people, was the culprit of all of it.I walked Kurt up to the counter, letting him lean against it to support himself while I dealt with Ronny. As I went to walk around Kurt, I was suddenly stopped as he held me back, pushing me behind him. Even in his weakened state, knowing good and well he was no match for Ronny right now, his first instinct was to protect me and our baby. My lip started to quiver as I put my hands on Kurt's back and felt his muscles tense and go rigid. It was at that moment that I knew Kurt would never let anything bad happen to me and the baby. He had neither the strength nor the energy to fight off Ronny, but he would keep himself between and my soon-to-be ex-husband for as long as it took to make sure we were safe. I peeked around Kurt's shoulder, and I could see Ronny with a white-knuckle grip on the bottle of Jack, finger pointed straight at Kurt. Several times, Ronny opened his mouth to speak, but no words would come out.Kurt was the first to break the tense silence between them, "Look, Ronny, I-""Shut the fuck up, Kurt," Ronny growled, "I can't even fucking look at you right now. I dropped everything, rushed to the hospital, and give you my fucking blood out of my arm to save your traitorous ass. And this is how you repay me for my kindness?""I am eternally grateful for that," Kurt said, the exhaustion thick in his voice. "Truly, I owe you my life.""You owe me your life, and yet you repay me by defiling my wife and her body!" Ronny snapped.I felt Kurt's chest expand as he took a deep breath in, "No. You don't understand. I love Riza. I've loved her for years. Without her, my life would have meant nothing, and I would have just have been better off dying in the hospital. She is the reason I get up in the morning, she is the reason I want to live every day to the best of my ability, and she is the reason I want to do better and be better, for her. Hell, she is the reason I keep on breathing, breathe after breathe.""Shut up. Shut UP. SHUT UP!" Ronny bellowed as he brought his palms to his temples and started to pace again. "How long has this been going on?"I watched as our party guests started to shuffle through the back door, anxious to see what all the commotion was about. Curious eyes flicked back and forth between Ronny, Kurt, and myself."Almost two months now. I came over to help her in the attic one day, and years of love and attraction just exploded out of me. I am sorry Ronny, I couldn't hold back my feelings for her any longer," Kurt lied, knowing full and well it was I who initiated everything."FUCK!" Ronny raged as he sent the bottle of Jack sailing across the kitchen, causing it to shatter against the wall in the living room.He stared at us, face more red than I'd ever seen it before. His shoulders rose and fell as he breathed deep, nostrils flared, jaw set, and lips pursed together. There was the slightest hint of a twitch in the corner of his eye."Riza, how could you do this to me?" Ronny whined when he realized our little exchange had an audience.Oh hell no. No way in hell was I going to let Ronny sit back and play the part of the victim, and make me into the villain of this story. I felt a burning rage grow inside of me anger from years of neglect, passive-aggressive words, lack of any kind of romance, and having my body used for the pleasure of a man who didn't even love me anymore. It all finally came out and boiled to the surface. For years I endured the treatment. For years I thought I was being selfish. For years I accepted the feeling that this was just how my life was now. Then, a wonderful man with a wonderful heart, warm eyes, friendly smile, and an amazing cock, finally found the courage to express his feelings for me and show me that there was more to life than sitting at home and being a walking fleshlight to a husband who didn't love me anymore. No more."Do this to you? Do this to you!?" I said and slapped away Kurt's hand as he tried to hold me back.I stomped up to Ronny and smacked him across the face as hard as I could. The slap was so loud that some of our neighborhood audience gasped. My body felt hot and stiff as I glared at Ronny. His eyes were wide with surprise as he finally saw a side of me he'd never seen before. It felt great, liberating even. I almost laughed as the fear set into his eyes."Do what to you, exactly, Ronny?" I shouted, my body trembling with anger, "Sit at home, alone, dreaming that when you got home you would pretend you loved me still? Lay under you while you use my body for your pleasure, but not even touch me in any way that made me feel like you still cared even the slightest bit for me? Clean our house, make you dinner, pay our bills, and not even get so much as a thank you? Let me ask you this Ronny, when is the last time you wrapped your arms around me and kissed me?""I... I... I don't-" Ronny started to mumble."YOU DON'T KNOW BECAUSE IT'S BEEN YEARS!" I screamed, "You put me through all that, and you have the sheer audacity to sit here and play the victim. I don't fucking think so! Oh, and I know all you care about is the trust fund. That's why for the past three years, I've been getting birth control shots behind your back. Do you want to know what the funny and ironic thing is? I finally meet a man who makes me feel loved, makes me feel special, makes me feel like I am more than just a walking cum dumpster, and the first time we have sex, he gets me pregnant."I almost laughed as I watched our onlookers out of the corner of my eye and saw many of them with shocked yet intrigued looks on their faces. When the fuck did my life turn into a daytime drama? I continued while I still had the upper hand in the argument."Before you ask, yes, you did hear me correctly," I said as I let a smile stretch across my face, "I am in love with Kurt, and pregnant with his baby."I watched as the realization set in and his face went from shock to pure unadulterated anger."YOU FUCKING UNGRATEFUL HARLOT!" Ronny bellowed, "I worked my ass off to put a roof over your head, pay for the food we put on our table, and I pay for the car

This week I am joined with the LEGENDARY wedding photographer extraordinaire and hello Bey Hive member, Jill DeVries-Dryer! In this episode, we take a stroll down memory lane and go through Billboard's Year-End Chart for 1997.

We also get the opportunity to talk about his creative process, their current TEARS & GEARZ TOUR with Bentley Robles and some of the incredible artists that would keep him sane if stranded on a deserted island.

This week, we are truly, madly, deeply excited to have pop music legend Darren Hayes in the house to talk Madonna at the Forum, U2 at the Sphere, and Beyonce on a horse. Also: life one year after divorce, his relationship with his partner in Savage Garden, hiding a wife during his pop peak, marketing a record from the closet, and what happens when you go to a dinner party, Madonna is there, and she demands that you tell a joke.

It's to like actually teach their kids when their kids come home. And you do that by asking 'em questions. They can't Google. Or ask them questions, then don't let them Google. And if they answer a question, not telling them what if it's right or wrong, but ask 'em how they got to that answer because that is actually challenging the brain.So, you know what? Ask yourself a question. Don't let yourself Google. Try to come with an answer and then, you know, see what happens.Welcome to the Be It Till You See It podcast where we talk about taking messy action, knowing that perfect is boring. I'm Melissa Logan, plaza's instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt, my friend, my friends.Action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my [00:01:00] guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and be it till you see it. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started.And stick around to the very end because we got some outtakes that's been happening. There's always outtakes. Um, and the team does collect them for bloopers on the YouTube, but uh, we're adding them into the end of the pod because you know what you need to know that we are not perfect. You're not perfect, and we're enjoying the process and we are enjoying that.So have a good laugh on our behalf. Love you.Welcome back to the Beat Till c interview recap, where my co-host in life, Brad and I are ready to dig into the cognitive combo I had with Dr. Felipe Dion and Douglas Map in our last episode. If you haven't yet listened to that interview, feel free to pause this now. Go back and listen to that one, and then come back and join us.Also, if you're listening to this on the O P C app, oh yeah, you don't even have to like go back. You can literally. Just see the list of, of latest episodes and you can go, I haven't listened to that [00:02:00] one yet. That's true. And you can listen to it all for free on that app. Just a shameless puck. Okay. Yeah, Brad Crowell: not only that though, uh, this one was, was like, there was a lot going on in this episode, so I actually listened to it, uh, slower than I normally would cuz they were thrown out like of, of science, a lot of science and a lot of stuff that like medical stuff.My Lesley Logan: poor brain was like, not catching up you guys. I failed the cognitive test on the air. I did laugh. I laughed out loud. I like, okay, in my defense I just did not understand the instructions and also I clearly, I did go get my brain checked, but Brad Crowell: I can see how he can like mess with you as the person running the test because.I could see the logic behind why you would want to answer the way that you answered. Yeah. And then I could also see how he was talking about modifying it to mess with people even more. I, I thought it was pretty cool. So, so do you, Lesley Logan: so I just wanna know. Pretty cool. Test everyone who listened. Do you think that he made it harder because I'm so amazing?Or do you, do we think my brain's fucked? Drop a one [00:03:00] in the comments on Instagram. Anyways. Okay, before we get into their conversation, let me just announce that today is international Skin Pigmentation Day. Cause I got some, and y'all all probably have some. And you know what? It's okay. Like get your cancer checked.Absolutely. But own the skin pigmentation. It makes you who you are. When I was growing up, they called them freckles, and now it's called malama. I do not like that.

They even like did an outdoor adventure with me when I was definitely negative from Covid, but we still did outside so no one would get [00:10:00] anything before Christmas Eve. Yeah. Uh, so we love them. Um, and this is her Brad Crowell: question. Yeah. So she said, you often talk about small things that fill our cup. As a fellow nineties lover, what is your favorite nineties song and or movie that you cannot turn off when it's on mine?Are TLCs? No Scrubs and Empire Records. Okay, Lesley Logan: Aaron. Okay, so I love this question so much and I do think that like little things do fill our cup, right? So for 90 songs, I will just be completely honest, my parents raised me on focus on the family and my grandparents on the oldies channels. So I was at the Drifters concerts in front row.I forget who we were just talking about where they were like saying that, and I was like, oh yeah, no, me too, me too. Drifter's baby. So, um, luckily for me, pretty Woman is from 1990 and it is. Brad Crowell: Absolutely. Oh, that's your, that's your movie. That's my Lesley Logan: movie. That is your movie. 1000% my movie. [00:11:00] I don't care. I don't care if I, I watched it every day for an entire summer with my best friend.Um, it was our favorite thing to do, and my mom was always like, hi mom. My mom was always like, Leslie, you should be. Watching this every single day, it's gonna like, make you grow up to be a prostitute. And I said, uh, actually mom, she's an entrepreneur and she never takes less than a hundred. So, um, thanks Julia Roberts.Love you. Um, so that's my favorite movie that I cannot get enough of. I don't know. When did the League of your own come out? Because when I'm flying, uh, cuz pretty women's not on the planes, but a league of your own. Of their own. 92. 92. And then also Sleepless in Seattle. That movie, those another Brad Crowell: two Lesley Logan: I 93.93. Thank God for that. So when I, Aaron, when I'm on a flight, literally the last fight to Cambodia to fall asleep, I put on the lee of their own. And then when I woke up, Which I do on a plane. I went on to sleepless in Seattle, fell back asleep, missed the whole movie, woke up [00:12:00] at the end, went back to the league of their own, and like that was my night.It in between two of 'em and I fell asleep. So love them fills my cup so much in so many ways. For songs, this is actually a little difficult because again, as I mentioned, like. I grew up with focus on the family as one option and like the drifters as another option, and also Chuck Berry's my Dingling, somy Dingling. If you know you, it's h hilarious. It's a hilarious song. Bell Wood Ring. I just wanna play with my, and then he'd have the whole audience sing that part anyways. Um, so, uh, I did some, some stuff because I wanted make sure I got some songs right. Um, because I don't remember all the Christian bands.Brad probably does, but like, we probably had like clays of whatever it's called, jars of clay. Like just those, yeah. That, Brad Crowell: that, that's the first thing that came into my head was the entire album. Their, their first Lesley Logan: album. And there like, there was a couple of bands that like, My parents would let me play in their earshot, but whenever they would leave, and also I had some friends' moms who drove me to [00:13:00] school, so it's an ironic, of course.Alanis Morrisette. Thank you so much. Um, of course, Mary j Blige, of course, anything by Macy Gray and, um, Whitney Houston. Shout out. I mean, like, how can you not? I remember, do you remember this, Brad? We were walking the dogs in LA and someone's blasting. Um, I just wanna dance with somebody in their car. I just wanna dance with somebody.Yeah. And they stopped at the stop sign by our house and we started singing with them. Like, Brad Crowell: it was like, oh gosh, Whitney. Lesley Logan: Anyways, um, So, uh, so Erin said, no scrubs, Erin. Um, and there's an O P C workout called No Scrubs coming up for you. Um, that just have some fun. But I love salt and pepper. I love Lauren Hill.I loved, I mean like, uh, I don't think there's a 90 song that would come on now that I would stop playing unless it was like, who, weirdo Yankovich. That shit doesn't do me anything. Um, so I'm just into it all. I, [00:14:00] I just, I don't, I can't even pick a fave. I really, really cannot. Um, but also I feel like I should have gone to the, um, loveth fair.I think I missed out on an opportunity to like really just like, I don't think I was like the 1999 um, shit festival, the Woodstock thing. I think I was a little affair girl all along with my glasses and my perm bangs cuz my mom did that. And, uh, my braces, I think I would've filled it. Fit. Nailed it. Yeah.What are your Brad Crowell: favorites? All right, so, um, I definitely, uh, remember. Uh, being impacted seriously by Green Day and their album Due. Your parents, sledge? They certainly did not. Uh, but I listened on the bus, uh, and I got really into that. Um, do I play it over and over and over again? Not so much. Um, I'm trying to think about like, what would I play over and over again, uh, from the nineties specifically Lesley Logan: six PE on the Richer.You didn't play that over and over again. I mean, Brad Crowell: [00:15:00] um, on, no, I played like, um, like, uh, lit and a couple of other punk bands, like whatever. But who in the Blowfish did you Sure. A big bad Voodoo Daddy. Like, I mean, come on. But, uh, yeah, I mean, definitely, um, Lesley Logan: There was this Australian band that would go, um, oh, I can't think of it, but like I, um, it's gonna come up in this podcast.I will come back to it Brad Crowell: and they'll just be like, good thing. Well, movies. Okay. So I just was looking, um, the Big Lapovsky is in the late nineties, and that movie is amazing and I'm like super into that film. Um, uh, and the, uh, uh, the ne the other one was I, I kept looking up, like trying to figure out, um, Uh, is diehard.It's from 1988 and I'm like, no, no, because that one, like if it's on, I'm watching it, but diehard two is 1990, so I don't know if I have that same affinity for diehard two. Lesley Logan: Oh my God, dude. Okay. Just, no, maybe people listening remember this, but back when cable was a big deal [00:16:00] and I was in college, um, there would be like, I love the nineties.I love the eighties. It was on e and like, was it on e What? There was like a, a cable channel. There was a bunch of 'em. And like, anyways, uh, okay. So, but Savage Garden, truly, madly, deeply. Uh, the chorus is unbelievable. It's super fast. It's like, like you have to, like how to lick. Well, it's dun. I can't do it.I can't do it. I have to listen to it. At any rate, that's the commercial. You can't play it on the air. Oh man. Right now you cannot play it. We don't own the right, but you'all, just go. Those Savage Gardens truly, madly, deeply get to the chorus. And like you will be like, every time I see you, close my eyes da like that.It's like so fucking good. Anyways, I own the cd, I own the single. I bought the single, single and I played it over and over again. There you go. Aaron. That is the one Fills my cup first. Play it all the time. And Brad's like, no, I think that they're from Seattle. I'm like, they're, no, Brad Crowell: I was saying sound garden.You said Sound Garden. They're from Seattle. Yeah. This is Savage [00:17:00] Garden. Savage Garden. And they're from Queensland. Queensland. I didn't know Lesley Logan: that. And they're actually from Brisbane. And you know Brisbane. I fucking love you and Mr. Your faces. Let's go. Brad Crowell: Anyway, this has been fun going down memory lane way into it. Great question, erin. Thank you so much. Um, I hope y'all have had a lot of like ohs happening during this time.Anyway, stick around.Let's talk about Dr.Phillip Du and. Douglas Map, uh, two extraordinary individuals who are all about the power of the brain. Both are experts in their fields, uh, and they firmly believe that understanding how to harness the capability of our brains and changing our thinking can also change our lives and the world. Pretty, uh, pretty crazy.Uh, listening to them talk about, um, just. Stuff that is kind of everyday things that we probably need to be doing to take care of our brains. Um, and I, I really enjoyed the conversation. I think before you jump into. Uh, before you jump into it, just the concept of working, quote [00:18:00] unquote working out your brain.Um, I really liked the idea of that because we obviously know we need to work out our muscles and, you know, like be moving all the movement and all that kind of stuff. And in my, in my mind I was like, oh yeah, you know, I work out my brain by playing a puzzle video game on my phone. Lesley Logan: Oh, don't work. Do you not remember Philipp Dion's whole thing?Soduko is not gonna work. Brad Crowell: Yeah. So, uh, but they're, they gave us some pretty practical tips on how to get your brain, um, working out anyway. Um, are you just gonna start, what is the one thing that, um, love your patients there? What is the one thing, uh, that you've loved that they said, uh, to help us work out our brain?Lesley Logan: So we've had Dr. Fe Dion on before, which is why I know this is a cool thing. Um, but I was just really excited to have him back because, There's so much to know about the brain. I don't even think scientists know everything about the brain yet. Like, and it's just, it's crazy. So, um, of course, you know, good sleep hygiene.It's been a thing that I've been wanting to work on [00:19:00] and, um, I've been really frustrated because of this aura ring. And it tells me how little sleep I'm fucking getting, even though I was going to bed, but I was like waking up 17 times ago. You just felt the Brad Crowell: best sleep in your life like a week ago. At the Lesley Logan: time of interviewing them, it was shit.And prior to that interview, my Aura Ring annual. Wrap up was like, uh, you averaged six hours of sleep, which is not what I, my goal was. My goal was seven hours of sleep, right? So obviously missed that by a big lot. And also like I wasn't getting into deep sleep, which is what our brain needs to do. We, so we have to train our body and brain to sleep.So I do have a nighttime routine. I have been cheating on it. However, do not work three to four hours before bed. Turn down the lights. As evening approaches, our friends have those like Google. Lights or their lights are on a Google situation and they just are on a timer end. Yeah. They just Brad Crowell: start dimming.They just start dimming. Lesley Logan: It's pretty cool. Do it. It doesn't, it doesn't seem to cost a lot, so you can like do it, but you have to think about it cuz all the things you can do to like not have to like remember to do [00:20:00] it. It's like, Amazing for decision fatigue. It also helps signal your body to start releasing melatonin.Hello? For sleep. They said no caffeine. Eight hours before, you know Europeans, you do things differently. So like, basically like Brad Crowell: if caffeine. Yeah, but I feel like science doesn't lie. You know, like, Lesley Logan: well, I've, I read a, I read a book on coffee and like, Some people can handle it after three o'clock and some people cannot.And Huberman also scientists, he also said like, if you can, you can't, if you can't, you can't. So just Fair enough, fair enough. You know, you, um, but, but definitely like probably eight hours before bed makes sense to me. Um, and they emphasize that you should get at least six to eight hours. I really, I feel good at seven hours.Eight kind of thinks you feel Brad Crowell: groggy. So that's good. Yeah. I need to, I need, I definitely am at the six hour mark and I need to step that up. The seven. Lesley Logan: Well also, cuz I don't want you to die. Well, Brad Crowell: yeah. And, and I mean, well, so here's what's in, he actually said, um, and this was an interesting way to think about sleep, because we kind of think of sleep like last.It's like the, it's like, eh, you get when I'm dead. [00:21:00] Well, there, I used to say that forever, but, but also like, you know, we're like, oh, I have a big day tomorrow, so I should get some sleep. And the the, you know, he said, Hey, you know, sleep is actually, literally sleep is made for your brain, right? Like, sleep is made for your brain.Okay, so when we say that, what that, what does that mean? Like you, you need to have the sleep so you can like power wash the brain, right? So that you can actually function and Yeah. And help your brain continue to be they actually communicating to itself Lesley Logan: during sleep. You, there's like all this fertilizer that's happening to your brain, the csf, the cerebral spinal fluid.Right. I don't know that I like the thinking about fertilizer like shit for my brain, but like, it it, well cuz fertilizer has a bunch of manure in it or chemicals. Sure. Okay. So, but let's just think about a holistic level, uh, according to the doctors and the scientists, um, when you sleep, you're like [00:22:00] literally giving your brain all the like, amazing gross shit that it needs.Here it is. Gross shit. Gross shit. Yeah, it's gross Shit. Sorry. It's gross. Sorry, Douglas. Um, anyways, uh, it's so, um, it's so important. And then they also mentioned this is why it's so important, if you listen to nothing, listen to this. There is links in science between dementia and sleep deprivation. Yeah. So y'all get your fucking sleep because you don't want to be dementia.Dementia. No. Have dementia. Yes. You don't wanna have it. You know, you don't wanna have it. And like we don't, we, and there's all these other things that are still trying to figure out why it's happening, but like, do yourself a favor and like, at least if one of the causes is lack of sleep. Get yourself some sleep.Well, Brad Crowell: I think, and the, you know, like, to take it a level deeper, basically he's talking about that CFS is cleaning your brain during those REM cycles of sleep. Uh, right. And he said, When you don't get the sleep that you [00:23:00] need, you're not clearing the brain as much as you need to clear it, which ultimately could cause a breakdown of communication, and that that if that communication breaks down, now we're talking diseases such as dementia.Lesley Logan: Dementia. Well, it makes sense. I mean, if you think about drains, If you don't clean them, there's buildup and then eventually there's blockages. Yeah. And. You know, in LA those things just become a burst pipe. So there's like these things that happen. So that could happen to you. Brad Crowell: It, it, it absolutely can. Yeah.So get your sleep. So that could happen to you. Lesley Logan: Uh, this is my for sleep. This is your brain on drugs. Brad Crowell: Yeah. Right. Uh, I really was also gravitating towards the, um, The, the conversation about, uh, business owners, like entrepreneurs. He said that, uh, uh, business people move the conversation forward because, uh, [00:24:00] especially, uh, Dr.Dion was, you know, he's in the, the, the health, wellness medical field. He's a fucking brain doctor. Brain doctor. But he's like, Hey, this is slow. Everything is slow in this field. But entrepreneurs get in there and they like, you know, Break stuff and they, they move a lot faster because, companies operating at peak performance are five times more efficient than companies that are not right.And that's a lot to do with the brain. So they were kind of going back and forth about this and, uh, basically it's, you know, his opinion was that business people have amazing take on the brain, whether or not they realize it because. For them to operate with efficiency. What are they doing? They're taking care of their body.They're taking care of their brain. They're probably, you know, uh, uh, doing, uh, like maybe it's, uh, supplements or sleep Oh, or some of these food that they're eating, and they're really intentional Lesley Logan: about it. Some of these business owners that I've followed, they're like, such biohackers and they're bio.Absolutely. They're doing some crazy studies on themselves and they move fast. And you're right, they break stuff and like, [00:25:00] not that science is slower, there's. You Brad Crowell: need money? No. No money. It's not the science, this law, it's the, the medical field that's, you know, moving the needle in like government stuff.Like that's, it's Lesley Logan: just slow. Well, that's because people, yeah, whatever, but like, You need money to study things and I think business people will are willing to do it because they will invest in the products that will help. The thing meaning cuz I mean, I bought a thing that a business person made to help me sleep better, so I'm in.Brad Crowell: Yeah. Um, and we're really excited to start sharing about that new, uh, device. Uh, we're working out a, a, a relationship with them. I Lesley Logan: know. I'm so excited to tell you all about it tomorrow next. I dunno, I'll, let me get Brad Crowell: to my emails. So Douglas Map also had like a side comment about ai, which I thought was really interesting cuz that, that always like, um, I'm always interested in that stuff.And, uh, he said actually he thinks that it's not necessarily gonna benefit us as much as we think it is, um, in a couple of, you know, in a generation or two. Because historically what has happened over the past, like couple of decades, [00:26:00] we don't remember people's phone numbers anymore because we don't need to, because we have cell phones.We don't try to do, um, math anymore because we have computers and laptops and uh, and you know, phones that have calculators on 'em. We, you know, there's a lot of like the, uh, normal processing trying to figure out of things that we just don't need to do anymore because we can either outsource it or we have a machine do it for us.And he said, so there's most, like, historically there's probably gonna be a similar effect on AI culturally. However, he said there's a caveat to that. If we don't train our brains to work beside it, then it will, it could potentially be negative. However, there's a way for us to actually. Use this AI in a beneficial Lesley Logan: way.Absolutely. People who use calculators are still like rocking crazy amazing business things. They just know how to use a calculator to make their mo self most, most efficient. Yeah. And also John Oliver had this on his AI segment. He's like, they're gonna be people who are, uh, lawyers and then there's gonna be lawyers who know use ai.[00:27:00] There are gonna people who are writers and there'll gonna be people who have writers who use ai. Doctors. Same thing. Doctors. Yep. So it's like you. You have to, you have to still use your con your contacts to help you remember phone numbers. You still have to use the thing, you have to learn how to use it.And so either you're gonna learn how to use it with you and like you'll become on top of the place, or you won't. But it's not like it's gonna calculate, doesn't fucking take over everyone. Right. Brad Crowell: Right. And that what, and the, the ai, you know, like he, he was talking about letting the AI think for us, well, can we do that?Yeah, of course. But. We will use the AI that much more effectively if we are asking it the right questions. So there's still a lot of like partnering with this AI tool to be the people who are asking the right questions of the AI are gonna get the best results from the ai. Yeah. And they're gonna be even more Lesley Logan: efficient.I agree. I agree. Because my friend did one of those AI drawings of herself. Uh oh. That's cool. You know, like she said, like, oh, draw me as like a superhero, whatever. There was a whole thing on on [00:28:00] Instagram and there, and several of them were really good. And then a couple of 'em had three hands, a lot of three armed AI things.Uh, I don't know what the AI is giving everyone three arms, so that's why you need to have a better person asking. And one of those hands was on her, like was like coming around to her boob, but like not, yeah, it was just like, she's like, where is his hand coming from and whose hand is it? Anyways, that's hilarious.People who know how to use it, people who don't. So keep your cognitions with you so you can be more analytical. Brad Crowell: Yeah. And, and, uh, some, I'm just gonna share. Super quick story that has nothing to do with anything, but I thought it was so fascinating. Um, my friend went to a, uh, a party and one of the things like, it was like a whole bunch of people, but they had a side room set up that was an AI voice activated ai.Um, like painter as it were. And so there was a screen and what it was doing was listening for the conversation in the room, and then it would make an AI, digital artwork, piece of imagery based on what it hurt, right? So they were just [00:29:00] throwing out phrases like, uh, one of 'em, literally someone said, Mount Everest, and then like, wait two seconds.And it would. It would like just show ALF on Mount Everest, right? Like those images don't exist. It wasn't like there's an episode of ALF where he's on Mount Everest. So they were, it was so fascinating how you can interact and create these amazing things with these, this new AI technology. So I love it. I mean, I think, uh, I think Lesley Logan: that people's imaginations can go more wild.Oh yeah, because the things that would hold a perfectionist back, like I can't draw on Mount Everest. Right? It would Brad Crowell: take me how long to draw Mount Mount Everest. Lesley Logan: I don have time for this. I need to sleep. Brad Crowell: Yeah, I got, I gotta get my REM cycle. I need seven hours. All right, Lesley Logan: let's talk about those being IT action items.What? Bold, executable, intrinsic targeted action items can we take away from your combo? I stole it. Brad Crowell: I did it. You totally stole it, but I'm gonna steal it back. Um, taking cold showers. In fact, uh, Dr. Philippe said taking free, he's been taking freezing cold showers. Uh, which [00:30:00] is a one up on me. I, I've been taking cold showers, I'm taking of cold showers.Um, I, well, I, I always start them at like, warm enough for me to get in without feeling like someone slapped me across the face. No. And then I make it cold, so it definitely gets cold. It's, it's not like, uh, but that initial shock, I'm ch I think I'm cheating, so, uh, it's not like I'm jumping in an ice cold pole that is, I'm not it.I Lesley Logan: can't wait for us to have our cold plunge in the, in the annex. But, um, okay. So, We did this episode. Did I say it on the episode or did I figure it out afterwards? That's, I'm not remembering, but like I had been wanting to take cold showers, but I also get up earlier Brad Crowell: than you, you mentioned that I was starting to take cold showers, so I think this is just when we began Lesley Logan: to do this.So, so, okay, here's what happened. This is like, thank goodness for divine appointments. Um, so I had this conversation with them and, uh, uh, y'all heard me fail my cognitive tests, but I do think that they were testing me. It's strong, harder than other people. That's what I think. But I did see my holistic doctor did get some stuff from my brain, my brain, and um, I had been [00:31:00] wanting to do cold showers, but our master bath bathroom is obviously in the bedroom and I get up way earlier than Brad sometimes like, and two hours after he goes to bed.So I didn't wanna take the shower because it's loud. It makes noise, it can do this whole thing. So then I was like, how am I supposed to do this cold shower? Because I don't wanna take it after the walk because I'm already awake. That doesn't work. That's I, I've listened to these guys that we just interviewed, and I also have listened to Huberman on the sleep thing.I have to take the cold shower in the morning, first thing in the morning. So then Huberman is like, Hey, here's some more information about cold showers in the morning. I'm like, oh, I can take him in the guest bathroom. We have a whole bath. We have an extra shower. Yeah. So then, I said, okay, so this is how you create habits.Everyone, first of all have, it can't be take a 15 minute cold shower, two minute, well, it's two minutes. That's all you need. That's what the study says. But I can't take this two minute cold shower as a goal because I have to now go across the house and do something over on that side of the house. So I had to start like putting clothes over there for the morning to go on the walk so that I would sure get into the shower.And then I started with like, [00:32:00] well, how long can I stay in this cold shower? So the first week, I got to a minute. And then I got myself up. I worked my way up to two minutes. I have been doing it every day. Yeah, since a week after I interviewed these guys, which you guys was months ago. So, At any rate, it is amazing.It does reduce inflammation. It does make me feel like I'm a badass and here's an extra credit thing. Do not turn the shower water warm afterwards. Brad Crowell: Oh, right. No, you, you, you stay cold and you exit the count, the shower cold. Lesley Logan: Exit Brad Crowell: cold, which by the way is, and then when you're drying off, that's like you're warming yourself up with your towel Lesley Logan: basically.We're gonna see how this goes cuz this is, uh, the first summer I'm doing this and the AC is on. When I'm getting outta the shower and it's really mouth fun, but it increases the blood flow, like you said, and it's just makes you alert. I, I Brad Crowell: think it also like helps your metabolism and there's a couple of other Oh yeah.You know things, but, but, uh, you know, basically what it's doing is, uh, it's forcing the blood into your brain [00:33:00] to protect your brain from the cold. Yes. Which is, Literally the best thing that your brain could get. Lesley Logan: Also, another shut up for why you should use your guest bathroom. All my married couples is this.I literal like, oh my God, it's so cold. Oh god. So cold. Oh god. So it's so cold. It's so cold. Oh my god. It's so, but it doesn't wake him up because it doesn't even turn on the water. I didn't even notice water heater doing it. No, I've been doing, I've not this today, even in hotel rooms. I've done it. So Awesome.I did it. What? Okay. Yeah. Nice Brad Crowell: job. Well, what about you? Lesley Logan: Okay. So I failed their cognitive assessment. Uh, and so my biggest takeaway is understand your cognitive abilities. Brad Crowell: Um, understand, understand your cognitive abilities. Yeah. Yeah. Mm-hmm. Lesley Logan: Uhhuh. So find a cognitive assessment to identify those strengths and weaknesses.Um, I think they have some stuff they Brad Crowell: actually said if they, if you aret Sure. You can hit 'em up on Twitter and they'll point you in the right direction. Yeah. Lesley Logan: And then, um, uh, and then. He didn't mention like meditation, exercise I'm reading, but like, I think those things help. But, um, he did say put your [00:34:00] brain in a rigorous exercise, so you gotta challenge your brain without too much stress to help your brain grow.And I think that's really vague. So I definitely would tweet at them what those are. But I would also say like, try not to, like we Googled 90 songs. To like, kind of like remind ourselves like, what are our favorite 90 songs? Also, not because we didn't know what they were, but like is it nineties? Is it eighties?Is it early two thousands? That's a little bit hard for me, but then just like, but it, yes, but you, yeah, but you missed a bunch of parts where like, I was like, there's a, another band, there's a, and I tried really hard to figure out what that band was before we Googled and I got as many parts of the thing.I had the garden down, I had the, I had the rhythm down. So try to do things that challenge your brain. This is something that's been really important to me. Many, many, many year, years ago I heard Seth Goden say parents' jobs is not to like get their, like think that school's teaching their kids. It's still like actually teach their kids when their [00:35:00] kids come home.And you do that by asking 'em questions. They can't Google. Mm. Or ask them questions, then don't let them Google. And if they answer a question, not telling them what if it's right or wrong, but ask 'em how they got to that answer because that is actually challenging the brain. So, you know what? Ask yourself a question.Don't let yourself Google. Try to come with an answer and then, you know, see what happens. I loved it. I, these guys are amazing.
