Welcome to Glenn Robison's Rapidly Rotating Records, bringing you vintage music to which you can't not tap your toes, from rapidly rotating 78 RPM records of the 1920s and '30s.

Discograffiti is the deep-dive podcast for music obsessives. In this episode, we feature the next entry in The Chuck Granata Pet Sounds Interview Series. Chuck and legendary bassist Carol Kaye are close friends, so this exceptional interview goes incredibly deep in its search for the truth. Carol is one of the most prolific bass guitarists in rock and pop music, playing on an estimated 10,000 recordings during a career spanning over 65 years. She actually started doing session work in 1957 on guitar, and after a bassist failed to turn up to a session in 1963, she switched to that instrument, quickly making a name for herself as one of the most in-demand session players of the 1960s. She's appeared on sessions by Frank Sinatra, Simon & Garfunkel, Stevie Wonder, The Supremes, The Temptations, The Four Tops, and The Monkees. The intro on Glen Campbell's “Wichita Lineman”? She came up with that. Of course, that's also Carol plucking away on The Beach Boys albums Today!, Summer Days (And Summer Nights!!), Pet Sounds, and Smile. Most famously, Kaye's bass lines are the driving force behind “Good Vibrations”, one of her many number 1 hits.  Here's just a few of the many things that Carol discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The truth about Mike Love; The first time she crossed paths with Brian Wilson; Working with Murry Wilson; The three times that Carol had Brian and Marilyn over to her house.

Each chapter concludes with a key takeaway—something practical you can implement today to start creating change in your life.In This Episode, You'll Hear From:Seth shares his framework for resilience, reminding us that "resilience isn't just enduring hardship, it's thriving through it." He offers practical tools including the six levels of awareness, the SMILE method, and the GRACE method.Teresa invites us into the frequency of love, exploring what it means to live with unwavering character and deep connection to yourself and source.Greg, a nurse anesthetist, breaks down the stigma around ketamine for mental health, sharing how this medicine is available, often covered by insurance, and can be life-changing for those struggling with depression, anxiety, and PTSD.Patricia, a nurse with 60 years of experience, offers a compassionate perspective on dying well. She reminds us that people don't stop living because they're dying, and shares how we can honor dignity and choice in the final phase of life.Dr. Erica provides an accessible introduction to Chinese medicine, offering self-care essentials and inviting us to attune ourselves to the seasons and the wisdom of this ancient holistic system.Dr. Burton, a neurologist, explores psychedelics as therapeutics, challenging the Schedule 1 designation and revealing the science and magic behind these medicines for mental health and neurological conditions.Brida guides us into soul-led living, exploring how our beliefs create our reality and how changing those beliefs at the deepest level can transform our entire lives.Dr. Charmin empowers us with naturopathic medicine, showing us that there are always options beyond the conventional approach and helping us understand the difference between normal lab ranges and optimized health.Jim opens the door to healing trauma, sharing how understanding the way we create our experience can transform even the deepest wounds and reveal the possibility of an amazing life.Chandra, the book's creator, shares two chapters: one on rewiring our relationship with food and another on welcoming ourselves home to our body's wisdom and rebuilding trust with our internal signals.Why This Book Matters:Personal growth can sometimes feel overwhelming or inaccessible.

The episode opens with reflections on the show's history, including each guest's first appearance on the podcast and the versions of iOS that were current at the time—highlighting just how much Apple's ecosystem (and the show itself) has evolved over the years. From there, the panel transitions into this week's Apple news and updates, including visionOS 26.2, which introduces a new Travel Mode designed for use in cars, trains, and buses, as well as iOS 26.3 beta, which continues Apple's push to make switching between Android and iPhone easier than ever. The group discusses real-world experiences with the Android-to-iPhone transfer process, notification forwarding to non-Apple wearables, and early impressions of the beta. The discussion continues with iOS 26.2, now publicly released, emphasizing its many security fixes, multitasking improvements on iPad, AirDrop security enhancements, Apple Music and Podcasts updates, HomePod stability improvements (or lack thereof), and new customization options like Liquid Glass transparency controls. On the Mac side, the panel dives into macOS 26.2, with notable improvements in system stability for some users, plus new camera features like Edge Light, updated reactions controls, and enhancements to apps like Freeform and Apple News. The episode wraps with a look ahead to MacStock, including a call for new presenters, followed by heartfelt thanks to listeners and contributors who've helped make 400 episodes possible.

Static-X is not only of of the most iconic Nu Metal bands of all time, but they're one of my favorite heavy bands of all time. Their debut Wisconsin Death Trip is now regarded as a stone cold classic of Nu Metal and an album ahead of its time. Today, Static-X bassist Tony Campos sat down with me on Psychic Warfare to speak on some of the memories of the making and touring of that album that make him smile, whether the hand of fate guided Static-X's career trajectory, and the lost art of just following your feet. Static-X's release of Wisconsin Death Trip - 25th Anniversary Corrosive Edition is out now wherever you stream music Psychic Warfare is now a part of the NOIZZE Podcast Network Subscribe to the podcast on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or your other platform of choice Be sure to follow both Psychic Warfare and NOIZZE at: Instagram: @noizzepodcastnetwork @noizzeuk @psychicwarfarepodcast Twitter: @psywarpod @noizzeuk Facebook: @psychicwarfarepodcast @noizzeuk Bluesky: @noizzeuk

Sam's had a big year and now he gives Matt and all the listeners his top 12 songs of 2025!We open with punchy rock and bass-heavy pop, shift into raw confessionals, and close with orchestral EDM that practically lifts you out of your seat. The throughline is contrast: songs that hype you up, songs that make you think, and songs that do both without breaking a sweat.We kick off with Wet Leg's sharp-tongued ode to overcrowded city life and swing into Blackpink's high-gloss momentum, built for big speakers and bigger moods. From there, NF's “Fear” brings unfiltered honesty about relapse into anxiety, while King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard bend genres with big band brass and 70s sparkle. Logic's “Not a Game,” elevated by Lucy Rose's airy hook, threads grit with grace; AJR's “The Big Goodbye” hooks you with an auctioneer loop and a look back at what you leave behind when you chase a dream.The mid-list heat spikes with Lindsay Stirling and Shuba's “Evil Twin,” a violin-meets-EDM surge that belongs on every pre-run playlist, then deepens with Florence and the Machine's “Witch Dance,” a visceral reflection on mortality and power. Jenny's “Like Jenny” delivers chorus-first pop engineered for pure joy, while Maiah Manser's “With a Smile” introduces siren-core chills over a sleek electronic bed. Lil Wayne's “Welcome to Tha Carter” blends choir, sample wizardry, and razor wit, asking whether we ever pause to savor heaven after clawing through hell. We close with “Lazarus Rise,” a cinematic ascent from haunted piano to full orchestral thunder—a reminder that genre walls are meant to be climbed.Subscribe, share with a friend, and leave a five-star review to help more music lovers find the show.https://music.apple.com/us/playlist/sams-best-of-2025/pl.u-dok7jCBkWPg6Catch these fists – Wet Leg Jump – Blackpink Fear – NF Phantom Island – King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard Not a Game – Logic featuring Lucy Rose The Big Goodbye – AJR Evil Twin – Lindsey Stirling featuring Shuba Witch Dance – Florence and the Machine Like Jennie – Jennie With a Smile – Maiah Manser Welcome to Tha Carter – Lil Wayne Lazarus Rise – Wasiu & Apache  Support the showVisit us at https://www.superawesomemix.com to learn more about our app, our merchandise, our cards, and more!

In this edition of the Courage Brands Spotlight, Ryan, Billy Collins, and Kimberly Voorhis unpack three brands that turned overlooked moments into loyal movements. Ryan kicks things off with Goldbelly, the mail-order marketplace delivering regional food favorites nationwide—think deep-dish from Chicago or crab cakes from Maryland. Kimberly sings the praises of Trader Joe's, a grocery chain that proves simplicity is courageous, where decision fatigue fades, handwritten signs spark delight, and hidden monkeys keep kids smiling. Billy closes with Scrub Daddy, the Shark Tank sponge that scrubbed away boredom and built a half-billion-dollar empire with flex-texture tech, irreverent TikTok humor, and holiday-themed clean-up companions. These brands may serve very different needs, but each one earns its place through conviction, creativity, and the courage to make everyday things feel a little more magical.

Treat this episode of The Wyness Shuffle as a massive Christmas selection box of ICT goodies that you can gorge yourself on over the entire festive period. We've put together our biggest festive pod to date, mainly due to some brilliant interviews with some ICT legends on and off the pitch. We welcome The Three Wise Men of Danny Devine, David Wotherspoon, and Joe Chalmers for a surprisingly competitive Christmas Quiz; new ICT Director George Moodie joins us to describe his early days on the board of the football club; and Caley Thistle stalwart of 20 years, ICT Community Development Trust Chief Executive Craig Masterton makes his pod debut to talk about the their outstanding commitment to social inclusion.

Discussion of two games as Hamilton's woes continue as ICT smash them 4-0 and rack up consecutive four goal wins at home, and the Tranent game finally goes ahead in Haddington of all places. 33:43 The Club. We take out regular look behind the scenes at The Club, looking at all things ICT on and mainly off the park, but we don't do that through our uninformed eyes, we do it through one of the four Directors of what is the new look Caley Thistle. Chairman of the ICT Supporters Trust and now one of four official directors of ICTFC. Mr George Moodie 1:08:38 Xmas Games of Old. A walk down a snowy lane of memories as we look back at some of the great festive games of old. Vestiges of Xmas' past at Kingsmills and Telford Street maybe, blizzard conditions amid the banks of the moray firth at Caledonian Stadium, and dark, delayed, dreadful conditions for away games that were worth it in the end for football memories that have not faded. 1:17:31 Quiz! And now The Magi, the Three Kings, the Three Wise Men of ICTFC. Like Jesus on Christmas morning (although it wasn't called that then, just Tuesday) we are delighted to have been visited by three of the wisest souls to don a Caley Thistle shirt: Danny Devine, David Wotherspoon, and Joe Chalmers. And it gets competitive! 01:56:46 WhatYiSayin Craig Masterton from the ICT Community Development Trust? 17462 participants this year! 1713 hours of free football!

So we talked to Craig! 02:34:02 Gifts for Gaffers! What Xmas presents would we give to the assorted rogues gallery of League One managers? Sledges, fish suppers and an instruction manual for Keith Bray. 2:36:14 League Lookahead: We lookahead to the Dumbarton game that has already been played! We thought we'd do alright given the recent comments of their manager. We also look ahead to all the Festive Football that is the games in Stenhousemuir, Montrose, the first home of the 2026 v Peterhead, and AY's gig at the Market Bar at 10pm on Sat 20 Dec! 02:45:29 2026 Lookahead!

What if the real source of your inflammation, fatigue, hormone imbalance, or stubborn health symptoms isn't your gut, sleep, or stress… but your mouth? This episode pulls back the curtain on the oral–systemic connection—one of the most overlooked drivers of chronic illness and long-term vitality.Dr. Maya Assi, DMD, a leading biological dentist and Invisalign® provider in Coral Springs, FL, brings an entirely different lens to dental care. As co-founder of Alpha Dental Practice & Implant Center, she integrates state-of-the-art technology with a deep respect for the body's biology, using minimally toxic materials and whole-body thinking to guide every treatment decision. With years of experience treating complex cases, Dr. Maya specializes in revealing the “hidden stressors” inside the mouth that can influence everything from immunity to metabolism.In this conversation, Dr. Maya and Dr. Shivani shed light on the profound effects of root canals, mercury fillings, fluoride exposure, orthodontic treatment, wisdom teeth removal, and even everyday habits like tongue posture. You'll understand why a biologically aligned approach matters, how oral infections can silently drain your immune system, and how airway-focused dentistry can improve sleep, cognition, and emotional regulation. Key Highlights• How the mouth acts as a biological command center and why inflammation, metals, and chronic infections in your teeth can influence your entire physiology. • What biological dentists look at differently, including the immune load created by root canals, dead tissue, and pathogenic bacteria. • The hidden risks of mercury fillings and how SMART-certified removal protects your brain, gut, and detox pathways during the transition. • Understanding fluoride's impact on thyroid function, bone density, and neurodevelopment and what safe, effective remineralizing alternatives actually strengthen enamel. • Why airway-focused orthodontics and tongue posture can change breathing patterns, sleep quality, facial development, and energy levels. • How proper nutritional preparation including minerals, protein, and targeted supplements can dramatically improve healing after dental surgery and reduce long-term complications.Why You Should Watch. This episode reveals safer dental choices, deep-rooted causes of unexplained symptoms, and science-backed strategies to support longevity, resilience, and whole-body healing through a biological dentistry approach.

Democrats on the House Oversight Committee release new photos of powerful people captured in Jeffrey Epstein's orbit. They include Donald Trump before he was president, as well as Steve Bannon, Bill Clinton, and Woody Allen. It's not clear where or when these photos were taken, but it's important to note that none depict any sexual misconduct, nor are they believed to depict underage girls. But they do give you a behind the scenes look at how Epstein was connected with some of the most powerful men in the world.    Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

The Intro to AOX Course is coming to Tempe, AZ!  Join us for a hands-on deep dive into the clinical and business systems behind predictable full-arch success. Seats are limited - register now to secure your spot. https://products.sharedpractices.com/tfap-intro-to-aox-2026 In this episode of The Full Arch Podcast, Dr. Aaron Miller sits down with SPG CEO Dr. Alex Sharp to reflect on a powerful day spent filming patient testimonials — and the deeper lessons that surfaced from hearing real smile journeys back to back. What stood out wasn't technique, hardware, or surgical details. It was how patients talked about trust, experience, and how being truly listened to changed everything. Together, they unpack why patients remember how you made them feel more than what you did clinically, how fundamentals and consistency shape better outcomes, and why confidence is built long before surgery ever begins. Key Highlights: What Patients Really Remember – Trust, clarity, and how the experience made them feel outweigh technical details. Smile Journeys Tell the Truth – Testimonials reveal the real impact of full-arch treatment when you slow down and listen. Fundamentals Still Win – Strong communication, presence, and consistency matter just as much as surgical skill.

We've all heard of the five love languages, but have you heard about the five languages of appreciation at work?  The number three way people feel appreciated at work is through Acts of Service.  One of the greatest ways we can show our appreciation for others is by helping others complete a project.  It means so much to them when we help somebody at the end of our shift or at the end of our day to finish what they're doing.  And sometimes, it's just cleaning the toilet, vacuuming, or helping unload a car full of supplies.  Any way you look at it, helping others out of the goodness of your heart with a little act of service can make a real difference in the life of someone you work with.  For more information, check out appreciation at work dot com.

Isaiah 10:27"If with deep faith, devotion and love you can exclaim: 'Mother, come to me, I cannot pass my days without you', rest assured, the Universal Mother will spread out Her arms and clasp you to Her heart. Don't look up to Her only as a mysterious refuge in your hour of distress. Keep in mind, She is always very, very near as the Force that guides your life. She Herself is the supreme refuge of every sentient being. With this conviction proceed. She will take the brunt of your burdens from your shoulders and make them light." -Sri Anandamayi Ma"From the depths of slumber, As I ascend the spiral stairway of wakefulness, I will whisper:God! God! God!Thou art the food, and when I break my fast Of nightly separation from Thee, I will taste Thee, and mentally say:God! God! God!No matter where I go, the spotlight of my mind Will ever keep turning on Thee;And in the battle din of activity, my silent war-cry will be:God! God! God!When boisterous storms of trials shriek, And when worries howl at me, I will drown their noises, loudly chanting:God! God! God!When my mind weaves dreamsWith threads of memories,Then on that magic cloth will I emboss:God! God! God!Every night, in time of deepest sleep, My peace dreams and calls, Joy! Joy! Joy!And my joy comes singing evermore:God! God! God!In waking, eating, working, dreaming, sleeping, Serving, meditating, chanting, divinely loving, My soul will constantly hum, unheard by any:God!
