DescriptionLisztmania: The First True Fan Frenzy in 60 Seconds. Take a minute to get the scoop!Fun FactLisztmania wasn't just poetic—it was real, and intense. Fans fought over Liszt's handkerchiefs, collected his hair, and wore cameos bearing his face. Some even claimed his music had healing powers.

Well, it certainly didn't take long for President Donald Trump and Vice President J.D. Vance to revive the Ugly American brand.Welcome to Season 3: Episode 5 of A View from the Left Side, New Strategies for a New World Order.As the seventh week of Trump's second term comes to a close, the United States, the world and the global financial markets are reeling from his decisions and walkbacks. Trump is not just a flimflam man. He's a flipflopping flimflam man. It's mind-boggling how much has happened since I recorded my last podcast a week ago.  Casting off our long-term allies, jumping in bed with Russia, starting a trade war with our biggest trading partners, crashing Wall Street, tanking world financial markets, pissing off consumers—and lying about all of it during a joint session of Congress on primetime TV. Wow, Trump had a big week! Oh, I almost forgot to mention that – also this week—we learned that several states have measles outbreaks. The upside of the measles outbreaks is that DOGE has rehired some of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) staff they fired. Perhaps we do need a few public health people! (Will Arizona have a measles outbreak? We have the same personal exemption for vaccines that Texas does.) So much winning!Ugh … pass the anti-depressants before RFK Jr. outlaws them!  Today's episode features a wide-ranging interview with three long-time political authors from Blog for Arizona.  Tucson lawyer and former prosecutor Michael Bryan founded Blog for Arizona more than 20 years ago. B4AZ has been published continuously since then. Retired lawyer and former newspaper journalist, Larry Bodine is the past chair of the Legislative District 18 Democrats in Pima County and has been on the Board of Democrats of Greater Tucson for five years, including three years as president. Phoenician David Gordon has had a career in education and is a successful science fiction author, in addition to being a prolific political blogger. His experience in science fiction writing probably informs his coverage of the Arizona Legislature.Podcast Time Stamps | The Ugly American Brand Returns  | 0:29 | It's the Economy Stupid  | 4:02 | The 'Stable Genius' at Work  | 5:51 | Shadow Group [DOGE] Dismantles 'Shadow Government' [Deep State]  | 7:14 | Is Trump's Election Part of a Antisystems Revolt?  | 8:14 | Democrats Shouldn't Defend Systems that Are Broken  | 8:38 | Podcast Interview: Today's Guests  | 9:55 | Strategic Alliances Crumbling  | 11:31 | DOGE Is a Challenge to Constitutional Order  | 17:05 | Are We Watching an Antisystems Revolt Unfold?  | 23:51 | Egg Prices and Where the Democrats Went Wrong in 2024  | 27:49 | Disinformation and the Media Landscape  | 40:27 | Do the Dems Need 'Better Stories' or Better Listening Skills?  | 42:42 | Institutional Change  | 50:23 | The Resistance Can't Be Invisible  | 57:54 | Arizona Politics  | 1:02:23 | Diversity Equity and Inclusion  | 1:09:37  | 2026: Can Dems Keep the Statewide Offices They Hold and Oust Ciscomani?  | 1:14:49 | Parting Thoughts  | 1:27:03You can watch my podcast on YouTube or listen to it on popular podcast platforms including Apple, Spotify, iHeartRadio, Podcast Addict, Podchaser, Pocket Casts, Deezer, Listen Notes and True Fans.

Income diversification, monetization strategies, and memberships with Bjork Ostorm ----- Welcome to episode 478 of The Food Blogger Pro Podcast! This week, we're launching the first episode of our three-episode mini-series with Memberful, in which our very own Bjork Ostrom talks about the power of community, income diversification, and memberships. Last week on the podcast, Bjork chatted with Ewen Finser. To go back and listen to that episode, click here. How to Address This Common Food Blogging Mistake Let's face it: most food bloggers are stuck in a rut when it comes to making money. They're relying on one source of income (usually ads), and that's a bit of a risky game. If Google or Pinterest decides to change their algorithms, your traffic and income could take a nosedive. So, what's the solution? Diversification! Instead of squeezing the same old orange, look for other juicy options. Affiliate marketing and sponsored content can be great ways to boost your income, but if you're looking to bring in recurring income, you may want to consider membership sites. They let you build on what you're already good at: creating awesome content and connecting with your audience. We hope you enjoy this episode — be sure to tune in to the second part of the mini-series next week! In this episode, you'll learn: Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Relying solely on ad revenue can be risky, especially if your traffic sources change. Diversify your income streams. Explore options like affiliate marketing, sponsored content, and memberships to create a more stable business. Build a strong business foundation. Focus on creating valuable content, engaging with your audience, and building relationships to support sustainable income.

How to Start a Podcast Series: Step Nine Mastering Your Podcast Craft   Mastery is all about developing the skills and knowledge to become a pro at something. Just like you wouldn't expect a little kid who wants to do gymnastics to compete in the Olympics right away, or a newbie runner to jump into a marathon without training, podcasting takes time and dedication; it's all about practice, practice, practice!   I'll share some of my own podcasting ups and downs, including the importance of showing up even when it's tough.    We'll also cover some practical tips and tools to help you keep going: - Finding a supportive podcasting community for support. - Investing in continuing education - Setting goals and finding accountability partners to stay on track. - Regularly reassess your podcasting goals and strategies. Finally, I'll answer two big questions: how long does it take to see podcasting results, and what does it take to build a successful podcast?    Quotes  "When you're in community with other like minded podcasters, it spurs you on to try new things. It encourages you to keep going."   "No one expects a four year old who says, "I want to be an Olympic gymnastics girl” to go out onto the floor and do a backhand spring into a back tuck or do the bars right off the bat. That's just not how it works. So it is with podcasting… you have to show up and practice, practice, practice.”   Call to Action Hit me up on Instagram www.instagram.com/kristinfieldschadwick and let me know one step you'll take to master your podcasting craft this next week or month—I'd love to hear from you.

Is it possible to bootstrap a high-level business if you're broke? Listen to Dan & Ian's take on what kinds of businesses are best to start when you're starting with basically nothing. Also, what the hell does a visionary do? Dan suggests that the best visionaries have integrator tendencies. They'll consider how Kevin Kelly's “100 True Fans” can lead to sustainable revenue through a concept called “The Death of the Follower”. Lastly, Dan pitches a business idea that requires zero startup cost, 3 days a week of effort, and could easily net you $250K.

It ignites wanderlust and inspires outdoor adventures. 07:45 Studying in Germany had a profound impact, broadening the individual's perspective on life and travel, as the experience of living in a different culture opened their eyes to the big world and the multitude of wonderful experiences it offers. This influenced their understanding of how cultures and people interact to shape the reality we experience, ultimately leading to a much broader perspective on life and travel. 10:38 Therese's Italy visit, amazed by David statue's impact on her perception of art. 19:06 Michael discusses the transition from writing creatively to incorporating journalism and SEO keywords. They express a realization that personal experiences and deeper connections resonate most with readers. They emphasize the importance of telling stories in a unique, non-traditional way to create reader engagement. 25:17 Michael discusses his interest in AI for research, mentioning their upcoming panel at a travel writers' conference and their use of AI for story ideas. They express both fascination and unease with AI's capabilities, sharing an anecdote about using it to generate a specific request. 26:38 A program can generate requested photos, but the accuracy may not always be guaranteed, as real-life details may be overlooked. 33:12 Success in content creation can be achieved by focusing on a niche audience rather than trying to appeal to everyone. It references the concept of "1,000 True Fans" by Kevin Kelly, who argues that having 1,000 dedicated supporters who consistently pay for your content can lead to a sustainable income. The text suggests that creators don't need to have a broad following to thrive in today's world. 39:59 People value authenticity, but the shallowness of social media leads to a focus on superficial qualities like aesthetics and follower count. The obsession with Instagram-friendly content and the game of gaining and losing followers eclipses genuine engagement. 46:59 To succeed in the outdoor and travel media industry, one must be prepared to take on a variety of tasks, from writing and photography to working for destinations. It's a multifaceted world that requires perseverance, while staying true to oneself is also crucial. 50:03 Giving away content for free diminishes its value and affects the ability to sustain a livelihood in travel writing. This parallels the decline of newspapers when they offered online content for free, leading to current expectations of free access. Diluting quality for free offerings may hinder future opportunities in the travel writing business. 54:06 Experienced influencers emphasize unique, detailed content creation and collaboration, prioritizing involvement and avoiding generic itineraries. Their approach stands out in the travel industry. 01:00:07 In group settings, time is limited for in-depth questions. It's better to keep your best questions to yourself and ask them later to avoid sharing valuable information with everyone else. 01:05:31 Michael always brings his inflatable camp pillow on trips for comfort and support because he finds pillows at accommodations uncomfortable. 01:14:26 The text emphasizes the importance of correctly spelling "high travel tails" for easy Google search results. It also mentions the authors' individual Instagram accounts and encourages subscribers and followers. 01:15:52 The Outdoor Biz Podcast with Rick Saez thanks listeners for tuning in and encourages them to visit the website for show notes and to subscribe and share the podcast.
