What usually holds you back from starting a conversation? Can you remember a time you avoided someone out of fear of saying the wrong thing? Jay sits down with behavioral researcher and bestselling author Vanessa Van Edwards for a powerful conversation that blends science, honesty, and so many surprising moments. Vanessa, who refers to herself as a “recovering awkward person,” shares how her biggest social struggles became the driving force behind her mission to crack the code on human connection. Together, Jay and Vanessa dive into the fascinating world of charisma, exploring the 97 cues, from eye contact to tone of voice, that quietly shape how we’re seen and understood. Vanessa breaks down why so many of us feel overlooked or underestimated—and introduces “signal amplification bias,” a concept that explains why the signals you think you’re sending might not be landing the way you expect. Vanessa shows us how confidence isn’t always something you’re born with but something you can build, with intention and awareness. The conversation goes even deeper as they unpack the tricky balance between warmth and competence, especially for women in the workplace, and how vulnerability isn’t a weakness, but often your greatest strength. They explore how to create those magic “me too” moments that form instant connections, spot the hidden red flags in communication, and let go of the need to be liked by everyone in order to be truly seen by the right people. In this interview, you'll learn: How to Make a Great First Impression Without Saying a Word How to Break the Ice with a Simple “Hey” How to Balance Warmth and Competence in Any Conversation How to Create Connection Using “Me Too” Moments How to Exit a Conversation Gracefully (Without Offending Anyone) How to Spot a Liar Using Body Language and Micro-Expressions How to Ask Better Questions That Spark Real Conversations How to Recognize the Difference Between Charisma and Manipulation Whether you struggle with social anxiety, want to level up your leadership presence, or are just tired of surface-level small talk, this episode is packed with practical tools and uplifting wisdom to help you connect with more authenticity and power.

This is one of them FREAKY TALES. The directing team behind Captain Marvel (yep) returns from director jail with a retro anthology movie called FREAKY TALES, and since Matt is only human and likes cool poster art, he dove at the chance to review this little oddity of a movie. What do Pedro Pascal, an axe, green lightning, Blade, and the rapper Too Short have in common? We don't know. We're not sure this movie knows either. But hey guys, it's the 80s! That's what matters, right? RIGHT???? Along the way, we also chat about The Day the Earth Blew Up: A Looney Tunes Movie and Captain America: Brave New World. Scrub ahead to 20:40 if you want to get right to the main Freaky Tales review, but if you do that, you'll miss a special celebratory news segment where we attempt to call Jeff from Love of Cinema for his birthday. It goes about as well as you'd expect. Wanna be on the show? Call us and leave a voicemail at (707) 948-6707. Visit our Linktree for more ways you can connect with us and connect with our show!

Det tycks pågå en kamp om hiphopens själ där Larry June placerar sig på en skön plats med utsikt över Stilla havet. Bortom killheder och kändisskap. Låter ibland som musik från ett förflutet som aldrig fanns, mer än i huvudet på Larry. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. En lugn storm där klassisk västkusthiphop, drömlika soulsamplingar, loungeljud och Lou Rawls förenas med hallickkultur och entreprenörsanda. Baslinjerna och melodierna från Oaklands mobmusic möter tech-San Francisco. Larry June skippar skrytet om gatubakgrund och kriminalitet, och beskriver hellre vardagen med sin son. Rappar rofyllt om att cykla, dricka hälsojuice, äta ekologiskt, och om att ta flickvännen ut på vandringsleder. Han rappar let's do-listan och får det att låta coolt.I avsnittet möter Mats Nileskär även några pionjärer från området kring bukten som banade väg för Larry: C-Bo, E-40 och Too Short.

Bay Area hip-hop is “the product of pimps and hustlers just as much as activists and intellectuals”. 当我们以地域划分 Hip Hop 风格时,Bay Area 大部分时候都会被自动、笼统地归类到 West Coast 中,而这所谓的“西海岸”往往默认了在洛杉矶周边。与加州南部不同,北部的 Bay Area 地区的音乐和文化有属于自己的历史和风格特点。本期我和老林将按着时间线发展与大家一起分享我们喜欢的 Bay Area 音乐,同时也根据主题划分为了 8 小章节,所以整期节目时长较长,分为上下两集。04. Bay Area 女性光芒我们都太爱 The Conscious Daughters 了,她们有女性自觉意识,却没有严肃说教,在 90s 初,不强调性感特征,不与男性的阳刚对立,而是超越了二元性别特征的框架,在她们的音乐中有舒适很酷的哥们儿姐们儿一起嗨玩,也有属于女性视角的情感问题探讨,和当时的 Hip Hop 女性建立起了坚固的湾区姐妹情,强烈推荐前两张专辑:”Ear to the Street”(1993), “Gamers”(1996);诗人气质的 Mystic 在 Digital Underground 1998 年专辑“Who Got the Gravy?”中首次亮相,个人首张 “Cuts For Luck and Scars For Freedom” 发行于 2001 年,在其中真诚地剖析了很多深刻内容,让关于耻辱的话题在音乐中有表达的空间,制作人有 Zion I 的 Amp Live,Hieroglyphics 的 A-Plus, 以及 Shock G;街头狠大姐,有着 female player 气质的 Marvaless 和 Passion,推荐专辑: “Ghetto Blues”(1994) by Marvaless, “Baller's Lady”(1996) by Passion;1980s 末短暂出现的 Kimmie Fresh,敢于挑战当时代表男性皮条音乐的 Too Short,重写了女性视角的 “The Real Freaky Tales”,当然 Too Short 作为一名虚怀若谷有格局的老皮条客,与 Kimmie 也建立了友谊;90s-00s 时代的 Bay Area 地区还有很多女性 rapper 由于各种原因都没有留下作品,甚至在时代发展中销声匿迹毫无记录,只有在少数历史报道中我们会得知一些名字,但在本地社区中一直是受人尊敬的存在;Neo Soul 歌手 Goapele 的地下场景名作 “Even Closer”(2002)05. 影响极其深远的 Bay Area Underground Hip HopHieroglyphics 大家族出品质量稳定,尤其是 “3rd Eye Vision”(1998), “Full Circle”(2003) ,创始人 Del The Funky Homosapien 也是深受 P-Funk 影响的文化传承者,1991 年首张个人专辑 “I Wish My Brother George was Here”是明显的 P-Funk 致敬,其他作品另类气质独特也十分推荐:”Future Development”(1997), “Both Side of Brain”(1999);Del 与 Dan the Automator, DJ Kid Koala 的三人组合 Deltron 3030 同名专辑是一张制作与概念都水平很高的地下另类名作;Souls of Mischief 的 Hip Hop 历史教科书级别作品 “93 'til Infinity”,同名歌曲是 Bay Area 地下最具代表性的大名曲,它所传达的时代情绪和制作思路都令人叫绝;大家族中成员的个人作品都很推荐,Opio, A-Plus, Casual, Pep Love 没有难听的;来自 Sacramento 的 Blackalious 在我们之前的“Underground”话题单集中提到过,所属的团体 Quannum Projects 风格另类,元素丰富;06. Bay Area 与南方城市的深度联系来自 New Orleans 的 Master P 在 1991 年拿到一笔赔偿款,在 Richmond 买下一家即将倒闭的唱片店,起名为 No Limit Records,也就是他后来成立的音乐厂牌,当时就签下了湾区代表制作人 E-A-Ski. Maser P 在 Richmond 时期就参与当地音乐场景,他早期的个人专辑“Ice Cream Man”(1996) 就有明显的 Bay Area 风格,还推出了 “West Coast Bad Boyz”合集系列,联合加州北部与南部一众 rapper,回到 New Orleans 后将湾区在车里售卖 mixtape 的经营模式带到了老家,对之后南方街头 Hip Hop 的传播起到了推动作用;Bay Area 的不少 rapper 都通过休斯顿的 Rap-A-Lot 发行音乐,Yukmouth 的独立厂牌 Smoke-A-Lot 明显是作为前者的兄弟,Mike Dean 和 N.O. Joe 都参与制作了很多,与休斯顿联系紧密的孟菲斯也与湾区 rapper 当然也少不了互通交流,新一代中 Yo Gotti 的 CMG 厂牌 A&R DaBoyDame 的老家就在奥克兰,所以也能看到新孟菲斯与湾区音乐场景的频繁合作;在亚特兰大,Big Boi 曾直接在音乐中致敬 Too Short,Andre 也表达过自己对 Hieroglyphics 和 Souls of Mischief 的喜爱,新亚特兰大的 Trap 代表制作人 Zaytoven 在搬到亚特兰大之前成长于旧金山,认为自己是代表 Bay Area 的。而更早的 1994 年Too Short 搬到亚特兰大生活,在 90s 后期就开始与 Jazze Pha, Lil Jon 合作;07. 00s Hyphy Era, 短暂但激动人心的亢奋时期,从湾区影响全国的文化思潮Hyphy 是 Bay Area 对当时已经大火的,来自亚特兰大 Crunk 音乐的回应,这种风格在音乐上延续湾区传统的低音特色,借鉴了 Crunk 音乐的快节奏和高能量,Hyphy 作为一个全面的文化思潮还诞生了许多相关的黑人俚语,时尚表达,以及最重要的 Turf Dancing 舞蹈形式;Too Short, E-40 和 Keak da Sneak 等 90s 的湾区领军人物在新时代也加入了 Hyphy 这股潮流,并且他们的 Hyphy 作品都成了这股潮流中的代表名作;Hyphy 对于当时的年轻一代不仅仅是快乐的派对音乐,也是他们表达自己迷茫,哀悼的一个出口,是处理自己街区伤痛的形式;其他 Hyphy 代表:Richie Rich,The Pack(名曲“Vans”),Mistah F.A.B. , 制作人 Rick Rock 以及他的团体 Federation,当 Hyphy 潮流刮到纽约,Rick Rock 还为 Jay-Z, G-Unit, Busta Rhymes 制作了 Hyphy 风格歌曲;Mac Dre 虽然在 Hyphy 鼎盛时已经去世,并不典型 Hyphy,但他的“Get Stupid”哲学被认为是 Hyphy 思想的启蒙,与“Go dumb”成为了 Hyphy 玩闹不正经的主要精神的浓缩体现;Hyphy 虽然短暂,但我们可以看到这股潮流和文化遗产至今体现在 Bay Area 音乐中,它是千禧年代的湾区街头,是湾区的音乐传统发展到特定时代产生的文化成果,在当时犯罪率上升的社会背景下,年轻人通过 Hyphy 用夸张的时尚,ghost ride 街头活动,turf dancing 和派对中的高能量音乐释放着自己的情绪,讲述自己的快乐和伤痛故事;互联网音乐初期,大疯子 Lil B 是一个过渡到 2010s 的重要人物08. 2010s 及之后的 New West Coast2010 年之后,Bay Area 地区和加州南部的风格界限已经不再十分明确,很多时候我们都统称为 New West Coast,抽着说的 flow 也不只在 Bay,但在奥克兰仍然有相当多的人继续着传统的低音特色,舒适清新的节奏,并且 pimp 仍然是很多音乐中的题材和 persona, 老辈与年轻一代相亲相爱,继续着属于 Bay Area 的气质传承。推荐音乐:Kamaiyah, ALLBLACK, SOB X RBE(成员之一 DaBoii), Larry June, Cardo, LaRussell, Nef the Pharaoh.2010 年,Hip Hop 行业中最重要的发行公司 EMPIRE 在 San Francisco 成立,这是从 Bay Area Hip Hop 初期就有的独立、Hustle 精神最成功,最让人尊敬的继承。Episode playlist:The Conscious Daughters - “Somethin To Ride To (Fonky Expedition)”Mystic - “Neptune's Jewels”Passion - “Where I'm From”Kimmie Fresh and The People - “The Real Freaky Tales The Girl Story”Marvaless - “Bring The Bomb”Del the Funky Homosapien - “Mistadobalina”Deltron 3030 - “Mastermind”Souls of Mischief - “93 'til Infinity”Hieroglyphics ft.

History of the Bay Podcast Ep. 85: Mistah F.A.B. has been at the center of the Bay Area hip-hop scene since he splashed on the scene as the Crown Prince of Hyphy in the early 2000s. Growing up in North Oakland, FAB's parents were in the street life but pushed him towards a different route. This led him to developing his talent as a rapper, putting out his first album "Nig-Latin" through Straight Hits Entertainment with Jazzy Jim and Gary Archer. This eventually led to him catching the attention of Mac Dre, and FAB's debut album "Son of a Pimp" dropped on Thizz Entertainment. This conversation about FAB's early career is like a history of Bay Area rap in itself, touching on artists like Andre Nickatina, The Jacka, Souls of Mischief, Too Short, Messy Marv, and many more. -- For promo opportunities on the podcast, e-mail: info@historyofthebay.com -- History of the Bay Spotify Playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/3ZUM4rCv6xfNbvB4r8TVWU?si=9218659b5f4b43aa Online Store: https://dregsone.myshopify.com Follow Dregs One: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/1UNuCcJlRb8ImMc5haZHXF?si=poJT0BYUS-qCfpEzAX7mlA Instagram: https://instagram.com/dregs_one TikTok: https://tiktok.com/@dregs_one Twitter: https://twitter.com/dregs_one Facebook: https://facebook.com/dregsone415 00:00 Introduction 05:13 Fab's parents in the street life 14:52 Choosing not to get in the streets 20:10 North Oakland history 24:00 Starting to rap 31:59 Gary Archer & D-Ray 34:09 “Nig Latin” album 38:53 Meeting Mac Dre 46:37 Andre Nickatina 49:40 “Super Sick Wid It” 56:39 “Son of a Pimp” album 58:58 Kanye West, Wake Up Show 1:02:48 “Backpack rap;” Souls of Mischief 1:10:20 The Freestyle King 1:16:12 Freestyle battles 1:21:25 The New Bay & the Hyphy Movement 1:26:54 Messy Marv 1:33:02 Hyphy era hits 1:36:27 Getting banned from KMEL 1:46:07 Ghost Ride It video 1:49:57 The Jacka 1:57:45 Community work --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/historyofthebay/support

In this week's show, I talk with Mary Margaret Lambert, a freelance writer from Nashville, well-known for her witty and heartfelt columns in the Tennessee Register. She's also the author of Life is Too Short to Wear Beige, a book that speaks to the importance of living authentically and embracing the wisdom that comes with age. Mary Margaret is someone who embodies the belief that every season of life is a time to embrace who you truly are. She has a wonderful story about refusing to “wear beige and keep quiet” at her son's wedding—a decision that emphasizes her commitment to staying true to herself, no matter the expectations others might have. As she puts it, “You've got to be your authentic self, no matter what that is. At midlife, we finally learn not to live up to others' expectations.” We began our conversation by talking about the wisdom that comes with aging. Mary Margaret believes that with time, we gain the ability to prioritize what truly matters. She shared her thoughts on the pressures of social media, which can often make us feel like we need to conform to a certain image. But Mary Margaret reminds us that “God made you unique,” and that embracing our individuality is key to living a fulfilled life. Mary Margaret's faith has been a cornerstone of her life, especially during difficult times. She spoke candidly about her battle with breast cancer and the challenges of caring for her husband. It was during these tough moments that her faith became her anchor. “If it hadn't been for my faith,” she said, “I probably would have been in a straitjacket somewhere by now. You just have to rely on God.” Our discussion then turned to the importance of female friendships. Mary Margaret, who raised three sons, found strength and support in her close-knit group of girlfriends—a group she affectionately refers to as her “bridge therapy group.” These women have been through it all together—divorces, loss, and the ups and downs of parenting. Their shared faith has been a strong bond, helping them navigate life's challenges. As Mary Margaret eloquently put it, “God is going to send His angels to minister to you. They may come in the form of doctors, nurses, or neighbors, but they will be there.” Writing has been another spiritual practice for Mary Margaret. She discovered her passion for it at a young age and has been sharing her insights through her longstanding column, Pinch of Faith. Writing, for Mary Margaret, is a way to process life's challenges and find healing. This was particularly true after the loss of her father during the Nashville flood in 2010, a devastating event that she worked through by putting pen to paper. She encourages other women to explore journaling as a way to connect with themselves and with God. “Writing purges my soul,” she shared. “It gets the things troubling me out of myself and onto paper, where I can process them.” As we wrapped up our conversation, Mary Margaret and I reflected on the beauty of midlife—the confidence that comes with experience, the deep reliance on faith, and the importance of embracing who you are. Aging with grace and gratitude, while staying open to God's guidance, is a message Mary Margaret lives by and hopes to pass on to others. To order Mary Margaret's book click here or if in Nashville visit St. Mary's Bookstore Jennie Guinn is a Catholic speaker, Life Coach, Podcaster, Weekly Radio Show Host on Nashville Catholic Radio and Radio Maria USA, and the founder of Catholic Moms in the Middle. After 26 years of working in Catholic education, Jennie felt God calling her "to step out of the boat" to serve in a new way. In her new ministry, she equips and encourages middle-life women to encounter the love of the Father and to be transformed and healed by the power of the Holy Spirit so they can MAGNIFY Christ in their corner of the world.
