In this week's episode, NeuroBiz coach Emily Duval Ledger shares with hosts Erin Gallardo, PT, DPT, NCS and Claire McLean, PT, DPT, NCS the lessons she's learned so far from attempting a hard thing: Learning to roller skate at 48 years old. Emily decided to try something new. Something she wasn't inherently good at and through her roller skating experience, she's picked up lessons that overlap with the things business owners need to keep in mind.   She describes how her initial skating lessons put her face to face with the biggest thing she wanted to avoid - falling - and why it ended up being the best thing. Emily emphasizes that successful entrepreneurs often emerge from previous failed ventures, and approaching challenges with curiosity instead of anxiety can lead to greater success. The episode highlights the importance of infusing fun and playfulness into learning, demonstrating how pairing skill practice with lighthearted conversation can reduce performance pressure and enhance creativity. Emily argues that leaving space for joy allows individuals to be more nimble and innovative in both personal pursuits and professional environments. Her final lesson focuses on "softening" when encountering obstacles - maintaining flexibility and a relaxed mindset when navigating unexpected business challenges, much like adjusting one's stance while roller skating over uneven terrain. By sharing her vulnerable learning process on her "Silver Skate Girl" Instagram account, Emily hopes to inspire others to step out of their comfort zones and embrace new experiences. The conversation ultimately celebrates continuous learning, community support, and the value of approaching life's challenges with openness, humor, and resilience.

Little Apple, Some category talk and the last local crit of the year. Cyclocross is starting up! Get tires are TreadSavvy.com Cast: Leah Sanda, Tim Strelecki, and Robert Curtis The Road Is Dead Podcast is based on what happens when people visit a bicycle business and get to talking. Topics can range widely from riding, road cycling enthusiasts, cyclocross racing, gravel racing, road racing, professional and amateur racing, grassroots cycling and events, industry discussions and trends. While based in the greater Chicagoland area regular guests are from all over. Main focus is on US domestic cycling. Guests range from Pro cyclists, industry veterans, race promoters and announcers, to just cool people that walked in. Passionate discussion you won't hear in the cycling media - we don't tow company lines and we're not afraid to discuss rumors, tell you when something is bad, or otherwise do something the others would avoid.

Jason Demers played over 700 games in the NHL, represented Canada at the Olympics, and was the “glue in the locker room” for five franchises. Teammates knew him as the guy who brought humour, energy, and heart. But inside, Jason was battling something invisible—crippling anxiety that made every night feel like fighting for his life. Jason opens up about the duality of his career: the confident defenceman fans saw on the ice, and the young man masking stress and fear with substances and a smile in the dressing room. He discusses injuries, pressure, and the emotional toll of professional sports, but also  resilience, rediscovery, and what it means to find peace. Today, Jason is helping young adults address their mental health challenges with tools such as breathwork, journaling, and emotional vulnerability. His mission is simple: if he can help even one kid feel less alone, then every struggle he went through was worth it. A powerful show and one that will resonate with anyone struggling with the realities of their life.   

In this episode, Daphne talks about the news and events that happened in the figure skating world this week.

We kick off this episode with a write-in discussion on the recent Microsoft layoffs and game cancellations, including the uncertainty around projects like Perfect Dark. It's a tough conversation about the state of Xbox, studios, and what this means for players moving forward.In this episode of Game Pass or Pass, we dive in deep on the remaster's biggest questions:Skating remade, but gospel intact: How Iron Galaxy rebuilt classic parks in stunning 4K, added new levels like Waterpark, Pinball, and Movie Studio, and expanded Create-A-Park tools—without losing that signature two-minute trick combo rush.More than nostalgia: New game modes—including New Game+—cross-platform multiplayer for up to eight players, fresh unlockables, and enhanced creation tools give it surprisingly lasting appeal.Trick-filled surprises: Guest skaters like TMNT's Michelangelo are finally playable, alongside the Doom Slayer and modern pros like Riley Hawk—Tony's real-life son, now skating in-game and making his mark in the family legacy.What fans are saying: Critics praise its faithful feel and presentation, although some note that THPS 4's original open-ended career design was simplified back into traditional level progression.Does Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 + 4 stand as the skater's rightful return, or does it skate by on nostalgia alone? Tune in to hear our full breakdown of how this remaster rides the line between reverence and reinvention.

Vince Guaraldi's music continues to have a wonderful afterlife, thanks to the successful recent releases of the Peanuts soundtracks that Guaraldi recorded before he died at 47 in 1976. Today we update the story with Derrick Bang, who wrote the book about the San Francisco jazz pianist and writes liner notes for the Peanuts soundtrack producers Jason and Sean Mendelson. Bang believes there's likely more unreleased music to come even after the soundtracks series ends. Today on Davisville he also names an often-overlooked Guaraldi song that he says evokes a stroll in the rain as winningly as the composer's Christmas song “Skating” evokes kids skating on a pond. We hear part of the song, “Rain, Rain Go Away,” which is nothing like the children's nursery rhyme. Bang underscores his belief in Guaraldi's music and talent. “I want to do the best I can to make sure that his music lives into the 22nd century,” he says on today's program. “I want him to become one of our Tchaikovskys.” Illustration taken from the cover of The Charlie Brown Suite and Other Favorites CD (2003), which uses a drawing of Vince Guaraldi by Charles Schulz.

  Imnterview from BOR Show #305, original airdate: January 1, 2007 Loren Singer (1923-2009) wrote the book The Parallax View (1970) Loren worked for the Office of Strategic Services (OSS ) during WW II He first had to pass a series of psychological tests He read studies of Rorschach tests given to top Nazis at Nuremberg Loren wrote for television and radio, this was his first book The amount of influence totalitarian governments had on us A relationship with German Intelligence officer Reinhard Gehlen Loren didn't like the film, the screenwriters couldn't find the thread The terrorism threat is sort of gauzy, Where? How? Unite in order to survive, that's what people will be told Chapters start with quotes from a fictional handbook The book is not a solution to the Kennedy assassinations A list of JFK related deaths, originally Loren scoffed The military men never became OSS assassins General William Donovan, committed to the survival of Britain Psychologists, psychiatrists, geographers, foreign language experts, engineers, weapons instructors Does a government have the right and or the duty to eliminate numbers of it's citizens to ensure it's survival? Skating around the edge right now with Guantanamo Teams ready to do the bidding of corporate or government interests The recruitment, the film's powerful six minute segment An OSS competition, three days of psychological testing Nobody ever passed the final exam, never any finite answer The people running Parallax were certain to have backups Loren did not want to do the screenplay The Manchurian Candidate (1962 film) was much better written Parallax opens with it's own "Zapruder" film Six Seconds In Dallas (Thompson 1967), sued by Time, Inc.
