Podcasts about Take It

Today's guest is plural. I'm fortunate to be joined by the entire band The Problem With Kids Today just before they hit the stage. Tate, Silas, and Reena talk about the music that inspired them, some early band experiences, and how the band came together. Tate tells me about their unusual name, their less unusual previous band name, and gelling as a band because of COVID. These guys are self-described goofballs who have a lot of fun with their music. They've got a new album out called Take It! It's an energetic blast of crazy fun punk rock with a few left turns sprinkled in. Make sure you check it out on streaming platforms.

SHOW 11-10-2025 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR 1910 gaza THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT THE GAZA "BOARD OF PEACE." FIRST HOUR 9-915 Analysis of the Trump Administration's "Take It or Leave It" Gaza Peace Plan. Bill Roggio and Ambassador Husain Haqqani discuss how the Trump administration proposed a "take it or leave it" Gaza victory plan, including a Board of Peace, international financing, and security. Ambassador Haqqani found the plan vague and a "fantasy," failing to address ground realities like disarming Hamas or the IDF's withdrawal. Bill Roggio insisted that peace is impossible under Hamas, whose charter demands Israel's removal. The vagueness makes it unclear how regional capitals like Cairo and Doha will respond, potentially allowing turmoil to continue. 915-930 Analysis of the Trump Administration's "Take It or Leave It" Gaza Peace Plan.

The vagueness makes it unclear how regional capitals like Cairo and Doha will respond, potentially allowing turmoil to continue. 930-945 Hezbollah's Rearmament and Israeli Active Defense Strategy in Lebanon and Gaza Peace Plan. David Daoud discusses how since the Gaza ceasefire, Hezbollah has been rearming, which the deal did not preclude. Israel shifted to "active defense," striking Hezbollah personnel and assets north and south of the Litani River, including in the Beqaa Valley, making no place in Lebanon off-limits. Hezbollah funds its operations through illicit transnational and internal economic channels. The US plan for Gaza aims for international engagement to preclude Hamas's resurgence, potentially relying on an international force and Israeli assistance. 945-1000 Hezbollah's Rearmament and Israeli Active Defense Strategy in Lebanon and Gaza Peace Plan.

SECOND HOUR 10-1015 Geopolitical Shifts: Gaza Peace, Syria's al-Sharaa, and REising Anti-Semitism. Malcolm Hoenlein discusses how the comprehensive US plan for Gaza proposes a transitional Board of Peace and mandates the disarming of Hamas. Hoenlein expressed skepticism regarding al-Sharaa's White House visit, noting his background as an ex-jihadist who ordered massacres of minorities in Syria. While neutralizing Syria would be positive, al-Sharaa has yet to prove himself. There is also rising concern over anti-Semitism in Europe, evidenced by attacks on Israeli sports teams and polls showing sympathy for Hamas. 1015-1030 Geopolitical Shifts: Gaza Peace, Syria's al-Sharaa, and Rising Anti-Semitism.

There is also rising concern over anti-Semitism in Europe, evidenced by attacks on Israeli sports teams and polls showing sympathy for Hamas. 1030-1045 Assessing European Reliability in Countering the China Threat to Taiwan. Steve Yates discusses how Europe's reliability in defending Taiwan is questioned, despite the Taiwan Vice President addressing the EU Parliament. Europe has historically lacked a significant defense footprint in East Asia. China exploits the narrative of European colonial history and decline to separate Europe from Taiwan. Although some European leaders prioritize economic opportunity with Beijing, reliable economic partners like Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan offer strong strategic and economic ballast against the risks posed by the People's Republic of China. 1045-1100 China's Censorship Campaign Against Pessimism and Social Discontent. Charles Burton discusses how China initiated a two-month campaign against "pessimism," targeting citizens who criticize the state due to economic failure, unfair housing, or joblessness. The regime ignores serious societal issues, relying on propaganda while profound discontent exists privately. Censorship is counterproductive, leading to false reporting and increasing internal cynicism toward the leadership. With official news censored, people rely on fast-running rumors, which the government attempts to deal with by arresting activists and rumor-mongers. THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 Russia's Winter Strikes on Ukrainian Energy and the Battle for Pokrovsk. John Hardie discusses how Russia is escalating its winter campaign against Ukrainian energy infrastructure using a higher percentage of hard-to-intercept ballistic missiles and drones. This aims to break Ukrainian will and create leverage for negotiations. On the front, the battle for Pokrovsk is difficult, with Russians infiltrating the city and disrupting logistics using fiber-optic-controlled FPV drones. Although Ukraine has succeeded in attriting Russian forces there, preserving manpower by avoiding a late withdrawal remains a critical concern. 1115-1130 Russia's Winter Strikes on Ukrainian Energy and the Battle for Pokrovsk.

Edmund Fitton-Brown discusses how the proposed Gaza "Board of Peace" is part of the Trump plan to create active international engagement and prevent a return to Hamas control. The international stabilization force must have "real teeth" to fight subversive elements, unlike the failed UNIFIL mission. Regarding al-Sharaa, the self-named Syrian president and ex-al-Qaeda veteran, the White House visit gives him a chance to stabilize Syria. However, he must be pressured to investigate massacres of Druze and Alawites and hold people accountable (trust but verify). 1145-1200 Assessing al-Sharaa's Visit and the Risks of the Gaza Board of Peace Proposal.

FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 Discussion of al-Sharaa's White House Visit, Syrian Sanctions, and Domestic Stability Issues. Ahmad Sharawi discusses how al-Sharaa (formerly al-Jolani), the self-named president of Syria and former al-Qaeda leader, visited the White House seeking the repeal of Caesar sanctions. The administration hopes he can stabilize Syria, ignoring his history of massacres against minorities like the Alawites and Druze. Critics argue he must address internal stability and remove foreign fighters first, as he is being rewarded for actions already serving his self-interest, such as fighting ISIS and limiting Iran's influence. 1215-1230 Discussion of al-Sharaa's White House Visit, Syrian Sanctions, and Domestic Stability Issues.

Ernesto Araújo discusses how indigenous leaders at COP 30 highlighted demands tied to environmental issues in the Amazon, which spans many countries. Poverty drives illegal activities, like logging and mining, even on indigenous lands (14% of Brazilian territory), which are often exploited through bribery and organized crime. While Lula speaks of protecting the Amazon, deforestation and indigenous health figures remain poor. The complex solution requires enforcing existing laws and focusing on establishing law and order to fight pervasive corruption. 1245-100 AM Iran's Nuclear Stalemate, Economic Crisis, and Missile Program Aspirations. Jonathan Schanzer discusses how Iran views the lack of peace or war with Israel as a dangerous stalemate, while aspiring to fire 2,000 ballistic missiles at once in a future conflict. Covert Israeli operations target Iranian missile facilities. Despite sanctions, Iran's oil exports have sharply increased (2.3 million barrels/day) due to lax enforcement, funneling money to regime kleptocrats. Domestic crises like water and power shortages are increasing internal desperation, as the regime prioritizes regional ambitions over the welfare of the average Iranian. |

Interview with : The Problem With Kids Today Take It! is the third and latest album released by The Problem With Kids Today, the Connecticut-based trio of Tate Brooks, Silas Lourenco-Lang, and Reena Yu. The album was recorded in a shed in Tate's backyard in Branford, CT with Joe LeMieux producing. They are releasing Take It! via their In The Shed Records imprint on CD, digital download and streaming services on August 22. Following an eye-opening experience in a large studio as well as their first ever tour, The Kids were ready for a change. They were tired of being corralled by pencil-pushers, desk jockeys, and Suits. They were ready to take back control. So they did.  Why pay to go to a fancy studio and be told what they can and can't do? There was a perfectly good shed in Tate's yard. Why hire a producer who may or may not understand the sound? They had long-time friend and Connecticut DIY staple Joe LeMieux who was passionate about the project. Why wait for some label to deem it worthy to release? They'll just put it out themselves.  So, the band and Joe cleaned out the shed and turned it into a home studio even Guided By Voices would be jealous of. Finally, it was time. For 8 days in the middle of October, Silas, Reena and Joe moved into Tate's house. Wake up early. Record all day. Drink and smoke into the wee hours before catching a few precious hours of sleep on Tate's floor. Do it all again the next day. That was the routine. There were only two rules. Keep it simple. Keep it fun.  The result is Take It!. An album that wears its Pastels badges proudly on its sleeve. The group takes inspiration from the long canon of English rock, from the mod-infested beaches of Brighton to the cobblestone streets of Glasgow, still reverberating with a DIY ethos. Bands like The Jam, The Who, and The Replacements bled into the brains of the band and informed the album as a whole - from the songwriting to the cover and even the photo shoots. It might finally be the answer to the age-old question: “Mods or Rockers?” …and the answer might be Both. Lead single “I Dunno” captures the energy and rawness of youth in a bottle, with all the stress and insecurity that comes along with it rising to the top. “The Beginning of the End of the World” touches on the poppier side of the group, with the yearning categorically reminiscent of iconic Sarah Records groups like East River Pipe and the Sugargliders. Some hits, like “Anymore”, are right out of the Mod playbook and others, like “What Happened to You?”, are born to wear leather. Most carve out a space all their own. One of the many highlights of Take It! is the medley that comprises most of the second half. While on one hand it illustrates a step- up in the ban;s songwriting, it also encompasses the principles of The Problem With Kids Today as a whole. Uncompromising, unceasing, unstoppable. Take It! is the culmination of 20-something years lived, a turn away from youthful indulgence into informed expertise. It sits at a new height of Tate and Silas's songwriting, with razor-sharp performances and unforgettable melodies, and a determination to be heard. Mods and Rockers will riot on the streets once again from the first strum of Take It! by The Problem With Kids Today.  https://www.instagram.com/theproblemwithkidstoday/?hl=en https://www.facebook.com/TPWKT/ https://theproblemwithkidstoday.bandcamp.com/ https://www.youtube.com/@theproblemwithkidstoday175

Do not attempt to adjust your WYGYFF podcast, there is nothing wrong; we have taken control as to bring you this special show; we will return it to you as soon as you are grooving . . . Featured in WYGYFF Episode 33: Classically trained funk keyboardist, singer, composer, producer and author Danny Bedrosian. For the past 20+ years, he has been best known as a central and touring member of Parliament-Funkadelic, a.k.a. George Clinton & the P-Funk All-Stars. During that time he has also appeared on numerous P-Funk and associated studio recordings and led many of his own projects, several of which feature fellow Funk Mob players. On his 2023 appearance on this channel's TRUTH IN RHYTHM show, he talked about his first book, “The Authorized P-Funk Song Reference: Official Canon of Parliament-Funkadelic, 1956-2023,” which fully documents the vast recording history of one of music's most prolific and monumental acts.  This fall has seen the release of his second book, “Make My Funk the P-Funk,” which documents Parliament-Funkadelic's pivotal year of 1975 and the albums: Chocolate City, Let's Take It to the Stage and Mothership Connection. This was the course that allowed listeners to make their funk the P-Funk, get their funk uncut, experience the bomb and forever wants to get funked up. That literature covering a seminal year of monumental music history sets the stage for a deep discussion between a pair of hardcore funkateers that any P-Funk, funk or music aficionado will adore.  RECORDED OCTOBER 2025 Hosted by Scott "DR GX" Goldfine — musicologist, author of “Everything Is on the One: The First Guide of Funk” and creator/host of the popular TRUTH IN RHYTHM podcast — "Where'd You Get Your Funk From?" is the latest interview show brought to you by FUNKNSTUFF.NET. Where'd You Get Your Funk From (WYGYFF) is an open format video and audio podcast focusing on the here and now, with a broad range of creative and artistic guests sharing fascinating stories, experiences, and perspectives. WYGYFF is a welcoming avenue to newer and independent musical acts as well as established and still active musicians of any genre; authors; filmmakers; actors; artists; collectors and archivists; radio & podcast personalities; journalists; scholars; sound techs; promoters; photographers; and other creative people. A common thread, is the show's standard opening question: Where'd you get your funk from? This is much deeper than it may seem as the answer need not be strictly about funky music, as not everyone has found the funk. It could hit on whatever type of music touches their soul or pleasure centers. Additionally, the question extends beyond music. Paraphrasing George Clinton, funk is whatever it needs to be to get you over the hump. Thus, guests can explain where they got their grit, perseverance, inspiration, talent, creativity, character or other qualities that shaped them into who they are today. This serves as a springboard into candid, in-depth and engrossing conversations. LEGAL NOTICE: All video and audio content protected by copyright.

Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino return off the second bye week to form the Helium Boys Podcast in anticipation of No. 23 USC's big road game against Nebraska where a sold out crowd is expected for the "Blackout" game.  It's no surprise that both hosts spend their 'Two-Minute Drill' talking about the trip to Nebraska. Shotgun shares his vehicle drama on his last trip to the state while Chris opines on this being his No. 1 road trip of the 2025 season.  There is no Stock Up, Stock Down without a game this past weekend so the podcast jumps right into a quick preview for the Cornhuskers, looking at their run defense, quarterback Dylan Raiola and much more.  The Helium Boys wrap up with a limited number of questions as well as some Take It or Leave It, which includes freshman quarterback Husan Longstreet, USC's All-Big Ten future selections and new potential starters out of the bye. Shotgun takes on a whole slew of topics in the Overtime period from Kool-Aid, Rainforest Cafe and TV dinners.  This will be just the seventh time these two programs have met all-time with the Trojans undefeated at five wins and a tie.

This week we're joined by Tate Brooks and Silas Lourenco Lang (two-thirds of the New Haven, CT band The Problem With Kids Today) as we unpack Jon Brion's long lost debut album, 'Meaningless'. Initially released independently by Brion in 2001 on his own "Straight to Cut-Out" label and sold through his website and CD Baby, it finally became more widely available in 2022 when it was re-released on Jealous Butcher Records. This collection of catchy power-pop tunes are a perfect representation of what Brion eventually brought to the production and film-score work he became most well-known for.

In a season of Stillness, but I'm still here. ❤️‍

We are about to drop some wisdom today! It's amazing how much you learn over two and half decades of life. For today's episode, I was reflecting on 25-years in the brick & mortar space and the many lessons I've learned in the fitness, coaching, sports, and business world and woah…I came up with a lot. These lessons are hard-fought, soul-earned wisdom that life, business, and faith have taught me over a quarter century in the trenches. Today, I'm sharing 10 of my 25+ lessons learned over 25 years. Some will hit quick and sharp. Others will go deep. But each one is designed to help you reflect, refocus, and reignite as you write your own next chapter. I'm hoping at least 1, 2, or 3 of these really resonate deeply with you and where you are at in your journey of life. Let's dive into my first 10-Lessons (and some of the crazy stories) I want to share with you on today's episode: LESSON #1: YOU GOTTA START. LESSON #2: BE THE MOST POSITIVE PERSON YOU KNOW. LESSON #3: LOSSES REMIND YOU OF THE FRAGILITY OF LIFE. LESSON #4: IF THERE'S A FORK IN THE ROAD, TAKE IT. LESSON #5: WHEN YOU'RE MAKING FINANCIAL PROJECTIONS, YOUR REVENUES ARE OFTEN HALF OF WHAT YOU PROJECT…AND YOUR EXPENSES ARE OFTEN DOUBLE. LESSON #6: DREAM BIG, START SMALL, AND WORK YOUR BUTT OFF. LESSON #7: TAKE RISKS, DON'T BE AFRAID TO FAIL, AND USE FEAR AS FUEL. LESSON #8: WALKING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MESS IS UNCOMFORTABLE. LESSON #9: THERE IS NOTHING LIKE LIVE EVENTS. LESSON #10: PRIORITIZE FAMILY. These are the first 10 of my 25+ lessons in 25 years. Which one hit you the hardest? Which one speaks to your soul right now? Which one resonated deepest?

This time we welcome Tim Healy and Martha Harbison to talk about Trumpeter Swan introductions, the proper plural of binoculars, and whether the internet was a good thing for birders.  Also, don't forget to bid on some great original bird art from our Bird of the Year program.  Subscribe to the podcast at Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts and please leave a rating or a review if you are so inclined!

Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino return for another episode of the Helium Boys Podcast off a long bye week for the Trojans.  Chris spends his 'Two-Minute Drill' talking about the marquee blue-blood matchup that will be happening in the Coliseum this weekend, a sold-out game. Shotgun takes the time to discuss his bye week activities, which featured him attending a college football game off the clock. The two analysts spend the first half of the show breaking down No. 15 Michigan (4-1, 2-0), including its elite run game and run defense.  No surprise that Michigan is powered by the run game on offense, currently No. 16 in the nation at 237.8 yards per game and 6.39 yards per carry, sixth in the country. Michigan has rushed for 17 touchdowns, tied for eighth in the country with USC. Alabama transfer Justice Haynes currently leads the Big Ten with 654 rushing yards and eight scores, third in the conference. Jordan Marshall is averaging 5.2 yards per carry as the backup with three rushing scores as well.  After a break, the Helium Boys talk a little bit about their recent Top 30 Most Important Trojans midseason re-rank, looking at some of the biggest risers and fallers. They also take on some listener questions with some Take It or Leave It. Finally, Shotgun is asked to blind rank some iconic Halloween and horror monsters and discusses shark cage diving.

We have an extended episode of the podcast for you today. It's a rare, full 90-minute CBS broadcast from October 1945 called Stars in the Afternoon. This previously uncirculated broadcast originally aired live from Carnegie Hall, and was a special, designed as a big promotional preview for CBS's fall lineup. Produced by Norman Corwin, you'll hear snippets and appearances from popular shows of the day, including The Aldrich Family, Inner Sanctum, We the People, Take It or Leave It, and The Thin Man.

It's officially Week 1! Shotgun Spratling and Chris Trevino are back behind the microphones for another edition of the Helium Boys Podcast to break down USC's Week 1 opponent: Missouri State, which will be making its debut at the FBS level.  The show kicks off with the patented 'Two-Minute Drill' with Trevino commenting on Lincoln Riley's comments on Trojans Live about the starting lineup along the offensive line. Shotgun talks about his excitement for the start of the season, and his hurried travel plans this past weekend in Georgia.  The Helium Boys then take their first official preview of the 2025 season with Missouri State. Missouri State wasn't a world beater at the FCS level with just four playoff appearances since 1989 and a 30-26 record since 2020. The Bears are projected to be among the bottom of Conference USA with a win projection between 5.4-6.7 per ESPN's Football Power Index.  It's been an emotional offseason for the Bears program after the death of senior safety ⁠Todric McGee⁠ in spring from an accidental gunshot wound. McGee was projected to be a starter in the secondary, leaving a huge loss in the defense and program.  TIMESTAMPS 01:55 - Helium Boys Podcast: Welcome & Introductions 06:29 - Two-Minute Drill: OL Confirmation & Shotgun's Airport Dash 18:11 - Analyzing Missouri State's FBS Jump & Top Players 28:24 - USC vs Missouri State: Key Storylines, Matchups, Players 36:05 - How USC Wins...

Send us a textThe 2025 Atlantic hurricane season is already underway—and it's expected to be an active one, with forecasts calling for 17 to 25 named storms, up to 13 hurricanes, and as many as 7 major hurricanes. For Florida's community associations, that means flood preparedness is no longer optional—it's urgent.In this episode of Take It to the Board, host Donna DiMaggio Berger welcomes Maurice Huffman, inventor of StormBag—a revolutionary, sandless sandbag that's changing the way neighborhoods and HOAs prepare for storms. Fresh off his appearance on Shark Tank Season 15, where he secured a $200,000 deal from Mark Cuban and Lori Greiner, Maurice shares the story behind StormBag, how it works, and why it's gaining traction across Florida and beyond.Unlike traditional sandbags, StormBags start out as lightweight, compact one-pound pouches that expand to 32-pound barriers when soaked in water—thanks to a polymer that absorbs 300 times its weight. They're clean, reusable, easy to store, and simple enough for a single person to deploy in minutes—making them ideal for both single-family homes and high-rise buildings.Maurice also opens up about the personal tragedy that led him to create StormBag after losing everything in the Paradise, California wildfires and experiencing flood damage shortly after. His Shark Tank journey provides a rare behind-the-scenes look at pitching to the Sharks and what happens after the cameras stop rolling.As climate risks grow and storms become more intense, this episode offers community leaders and homeowners practical insights on better protecting your property with less effort, expense, and environmental impact.Conversation Highlights:How the StormBag technology worksA breakdown of StormBag's cost and how it compares to traditional sandbags, including those distributed for free by some municipalitiesGuidance on how many StormBags are typically needed to protect the entrance of a multifamily buildingEstimates on the number of StormBags required to safeguard a 3,500-square-foot home from floodingInformation on the storage space required to stockpile StormBags in advance of a stormThe origin story behind StormBag and how the idea came to lifeInsights into Maurice's experience pitching on Shark Tank and securing a deal with Mark Cuban and Lori GreinerThe impact of endorsements from FEMA and the Department of Homeland Security, and examples of how HOAs and local governments are adopting StormBag for flood controlWhat community leaders and homeowners should keep in mind when it comes to flood preparedness and mitigationRelated Links:Resource: Becker Hurricane Preparedness and RecoveryOnline Class: Disaster Preparedness and RecoveryArticle: Shark Tank Episode
