You've blamed it on the eggnog but that doesn't help your headache - it's Box Day and a little recovery is required - lay down in a dark room, close your eyes as the winter snow starts again. If music was food, this would be fondue. This show is a recap of the best Ambient Music of 2024 - with two exceptions - Aphex Twin - Selected Ambient Works Volume II - which was reissued in 2024, and Sigur Rós - ÁTTA - released in 2023, but was included as it it fit perfectly with these selections, so I made an exception. It's been many years since Eno's Airport music and the genre has gone from strength to quiet strength by artists including Röyksopp, Sigur Rós, Aphex Twin, Moby, Burial, Church Cords, Nala Sinephro and loads more…including the Godfather Brian Eno. Happy Boxing Day. Listen any day you want, you need your ambient music.

In this special release episode, Just Science sat down with Dr. Pattie Melton, Co-Director of the Bureau of Justice Assistance's (BJA) Forensics Training and Technical Assistance, or TTA, Program, and Paige Presler-Jur, Associate Project Director for State-based Awards TTA team on BJA's Comprehensive Opioid, Stimulant, and Substance Use (COSSUP) Program and the COSSUP Post-arrest, Pretrial, Defense Counsel, and Courts TTA team, to discuss the importance of TTA – a component of many federal grant programs that helps grant recipients meet their goals and improve program outcomes. When an agency receives a federal grant, they may be faced with a myriad of challenges including setting scalable goals, tracking important program metrics, and planning for sustainability. As a result, training and technical assistance is built into many federal grant programs, so that experts from a separate organization can provide resources and support grant recipients throughout their period of performance. Listen along as Dr. Melton and Paige describe the strategies that TTA providers use when working with grant recipients, the importance of tailoring TTA to meet the unique needs of a community, and how TTA enhances the impact of important federally funded projects. This episode is funded by RTI International's Justice Practice Area.

  These end-of-the-year lists are usually labeled "Best Albums of the Year" - Best Ambient, Best Jazz, Best Indie, etc. I have been doing that for years. It has been pointed out that calling a list the "Best of the Year" is not only a bit snobby, it's also a little ridiculous because there is so much ambient music released every week that it's impossible to keep up. Plus this list is just my opinion, how can it possibly qualify as the "best"? With that in mind I was moving towards labeling these as my favorite albums of the year. In this case I called it "2023 Rewind" simply because I found a cool stock photo for the cover art. Anyway, on to the mix. These lists and mixes are tough to compile. It's so easy for even good albums to get lost in the shuffle. The ones that definitely did not get lost are my top 5 albums: Crows Labyrinth - Neon Scenes I - Granular Dreams Brendan Eder Ensemble - Therapy Eli Keszler - LIVE [LuckyMe] The Green Kingdom - Ether Hymns [Dronarivm] Rod Modell & Taka Noda - Glow World [13] I probably listened to that Crows Labyrinth album more than any other ambient album this year. It had the advantage of being used as a sleep album...a lot. The album has a great Blade Runner vibe that is retro yet fresh. I love it.    The Brendan Eder Ensemble was a new discovery for me. He self described his music as “meditative woodwind arrangements." That would have been enough to get my attention but then toss in a few Aphex Twin covers and I was hooked.   Eli Keszler has shown up on my lists before but this one is my fav. It is all live percussion, some sparse, some frantic but somehow it all feels ambient. Even when there's a lot going on it feels like it fits more in the ambient genre than jazz. So good.   Michael Cottone has been creating music as The Green Kingdom for a long time. I can always count on him for good quality ambient tracks. "Ether Hymns" is light and beautiful without ever being syrupy or overdone. It sets a perfect tone.   "Glow World" from Rod Modell & Taka Noda is pretty much what you would expect from Modell. Lots of synth washes with some buried bass lines and rhythms. It may be nothing new but it's done so well that the atmospheres suck you right in.    Here's the full list of my favorite ambient albums of 2023 in alphabetical order:   Alex Albrecht - Violet Visionary [ASIP] Alva Noto - Kinder der Sonne (From Komplizen) [Noton] ARROWOUNDS - In The Octopus Pond [Lost Tribe Sound] Bill Seaman, Tim Diagram, Stephen Spera - The World Was Turning Before [Laaps] Brendan Eder Ensemble - Therapy [2023] Claire Deak - Sotto Voce [Lost Tribe Sound 2023] Courtney Barnett - End Of The Day OST [Milk Records] Crows Labyrinth - Neon Scenes I - Granular Dreams Crows Labyrinth- Pulse Mandala - Astral Solstice [Valley View Records] cv313 - Plays Sequential Space [2023] Drawing Virtual Gardens - 22-22 [Lost Tribe Sound] Eli Keszler - LIVE [LuckyMe] Foreign Body Sensation & Justin Maranga - Subterranean Environments [Dune Alter] Hainbach - Voice Magnetic [Seil] Loneward - Willoweald [Stereoscenic] Michael Scott Dawson - Find Yourself Lost [We Are Busy Bodies] Mount Shrine - Lost Loops Collection [Cryo Chamber] Nico Less - Still North Americans - Long Cool World [Third Man Records] Pan American - in daylight dub [Foam On A Wave] Prins Emanuel - Diagonal Musik II [Music for Dreams] PURELINK - Signs [Peak Oil] Rod Modell & Taka Noda - Glow World [13] Saphileaum - Intrapersonal Experience [Good Morning Tapes] Sigur Rós - ÁTTA [Krúnk] Snufmumriko - Havstrakt [Sun Sea Sky Productions] Tapani Rinne - Grey [Signature Dark] The Green Kingdom - Ether Hymns [Dronarivm] Toki Fuko - Spirit Medicine [Astral Industries] William Ryan Fritch - Cohesion [Lost Tribe Sound]   Links to each album:   https://astrangelyisolatedplace.bandcamp.com/album/violet-visionary https://noton.info/product/n-058/ https://arrowounds.bandcamp.com/album/in-the-octopus-pond https://laaps.bandcamp.com/album/the-world-was-turning-before https://brendaneder.bandcamp.com/album/therapy https://clairedeak.bandcamp.com/album/sotto-voce https://courtneybarnett.bandcamp.com/album/end-of-the-day-music-from-the-film-anonymous-club https://crowslabyrinth.bandcamp.com/album/neon-scenes-i-granular-dreams https://valleyviewrecords.bandcamp.com/album/astral-solstice https://cv313.bandcamp.com/album/plays-sequential-space https://drawingvirtualgardens.bandcamp.com/album/22-22 https://elikeszler.bandcamp.com/album/live https://foreignbodysensation.bandcamp.com/album/subterranean-environments https://hainbach.bandcamp.com/album/voice-magnetic https://altusmusic.bandcamp.com/album/willoweald https://michaelscottdawson.bandcamp.com/album/find-yourself-lost https://nicoless.bandcamp.com/album/still https://northamericanszone.bandcamp.com/album/long-cool-world https://foamonawave.bandcamp.com/album/in-daylight-dub https://prinsemanuel.bandcamp.com/album/diagonal-musik-ii https://purelink.bandcamp.com/album/signs http://13.silentes.it/private_sounds/sps2360.htm https://saphileaum.bandcamp.com/album/saphileaum-intrapersonal-experience https://sigurros.bandcamp.com/album/tta https://snufmumriko.bandcamp.com/album/havstrakt https://signaturedarklabel.bandcamp.com/album/grey https://dronarivm.bandcamp.com/album/ether-hymns https://astralindustries.bandcamp.com/album/ai-34-spirit-medicine https://williamryanfritch.bandcamp.com/album/cohesion   I am pretty proud of my self that I managed to squeeze in all 30 albums into this one 2-hour mix.

What's this? The GBBT?! That's right. Since I (Rob) and headed to Japan for a few weeks, there isn't going to be a new TTA for a while. So in that gap we're going to upload episode of the GBBT, which was a short-lived bonus show that Christine and I ran for our TTA Patrons back when we had a Patreon campaign. So these episodes are a few years old at this point. This one in particular we focus on questions and answers! The normal TTA will return at the end of September with an in-person episode while Christine visits Disney World!

      I just got back from a week in Iceland so naturally I had to make a mix with music from Icelandic artists. The usual suspects are here - Sigur Ros, Johann Johannsson, Bjork, Olafur Arnalds, along with some new additions.  It still boggles my mind that the tiny island has produced such amazing music. But now, having been there, I guess it makes a bit more sense because the place is unique. The landscape and spirit seeps into your mind and body like hot water through porous volcanic rock. It's impossible not to fall in love with the people and the natural beauty.     Hopefully this mix can be your own mini vaca to Iceland.

What's this? The GBBT?! That's right. Since I (Rob) and headed to Japan for a few weeks, there isn't going to be a new TTA for a while. So in that gap we're going to upload episode of the GBBT, which was a short-lived bonus show that Christine and I ran for our TTA Patrons back when we had a Patreon campaign. So these episodes are a few years old at this point. This one in particular, we talk about rides being changed to keep up with the times, including Splash Mountain, Pirates, and Jungle Cruise. The normal TTA will return at the end of September with an in-person episode while Christine visits Disney World!

I asked for YOUR questions about sex & intimacy and you all delivered! I am sitting down with Dr. Sarah Bartel, moral theologian, to answer your questions. We are unafraid to get specific, honest, and address the nuances that can come from these kinds of questions, so we don't recommend this for young listeners.List of questions we address: Using vibrators okay? (many questions about this!) Can the woman touch herself during sex? Is that the man's job? Intimacy when husband is recovering from porn addiction How do you navigate low/non-existent libido for one or both partners? What's licit? Tips for initiating when I have spontaneous and hubby has responsive desire? Always feels awkward because it's the opposite narrative you usually hear about. (many questions about this!) How to orgasm at the same time? We achieved this once, and only once. Sometimes, orgasms happen before sex and can feel guilty about it. Is it okay to have oral sex but then normal sex right after that? NFP when getting to premenopausal, menopause, and post. TTA and sex is hard. Growing in trust outside of the bedroom in order to have more trust during sex How to get “one glass of wine” relaxed sex w/o the wine? So hard to shut down my brain & enjoy What is okay when it comes to imagination? What isn't? Sometimes, thinking about a scene from a movie or foreplay gets me more in the “zone” and engaging with my husband. Is that wrong? Interviewee bio: Sarah Bartel helps married Catholics grow closer to God and closer to their beloved at CanaFeast.com. A moral theologian and mom of five, she and her husband of twenty years created the Cana Feast virtual marriage ministry to help bring the benefits of marriage retreats to more couples.

Devin: What is your superpower?Marcus: I have a few of them, but the one that sticks out most with me and I realized that I have optimism is such a superpower that I possess. I'm not a negative person. The cup is half full, not half empty to me.Marcus McAllister consults with governments and NGOs around the world on one singular topic: ending violence.He doesn't work on any other aspect of crime than that. Seeing it for the public health challenge it is, he works to help communities stop the spread of violence.He's become one of the most respected leaders in the country on this topic. You can see him in this photo with President Biden below.Marcus helped me see violence in a whole new way.I will ask an audience of people from all walks of life, do they believe that—people in communities across this country, specifically black and brown, disproportionately affected communities—do they believe that disrespect can get you killed? I tell you, unanimously, almost everyone raises their hand because they can all think of a situation—whether we agree with it or not—they can think of a situation where just a little disrespect turned into somebody being shot, especially with young people across this country.His follow-up is powerful:So my next question is, I ask them how many people in the room raise their hand if disrespect is against the law. Almost 99 percent of them—no one raises their hand.So we just established that everyone believes that something as simple as disrespect gets shootings that get escalated into more homicides in the inner city, and yet it's not against the law.Ponder that for a moment. Let that soak in.People are dying because of triggers that weren't crimes. Imagine the challenge for those seeking to interrupt the cycle. It's not about locking people up who are committing pre-murder crimes.If it's not against the law, but we know it can get people killed, you have to have a specialized type of work—which we do—to handle disrespect before it gets to the point of multiple homicides.So we kind of police the disrespect; we get in front of things before they happen. Be sure to watch or listen to the full episode to pull all the insights Marcus uses to prevent violence.In his remarkable work, Marcus leverages optimism and love for others as a superpower.AI Podcast Summary* Marcus McAllister is the guest on the podcast discussing his work in community violence interruption.* He has been involved in violence prevention and intervention for over 20 years.* Marcus started his career in Chicagoland working for an organization called Ceasefire, which later changed its name to Cure Violence.* His work involves diffusing conflicts in communities and using personal experience and credibility to intervene in violence.* The work aims to prevent disrespect and conflicts from escalating into homicides or multiple shootings.* Marcus emphasizes the need for specialized work in community violence intervention, separate from traditional law enforcement, due to the unique nature of diffusing conflicts.* He trains individuals in mediation, conflict resolution, risk reduction plans, and identifying high-risk individuals.* Marcus highlights the importance of optimism and love in his work, which he considers to be his superpowers.* He shares a specific example of using optimism and love to successfully resolve a conflict between two individuals who had engaged in violence.* Marcus can be reached through his website, McAllisterConsult.com, or on Instagram @marcusmcall. He is available for consultation and training on community violence intervention.How to Develop Optimism As a Superpower“I don't have anybody's major degree, but I've been to the White House,” Marcus says. “I've been a keynote speaker at Yale Law School.” He credits his optimism and love for his fellow man for helping him achieve such success.He shared an anecdote about preventing a violent response to a violent act that likely saved at least one life.I had a situation years ago where a guy had beat a guy upside the head with a pistol real bad, and he reached out to me. At this point, he was trying to see if I would—if I call myself a violence interrupter, a peacemaker, “Here's your opportunity.” He explained to me what happened. The individual that he had beat upside the head with a pistol, he didn't want that guy to come back to kill him, or he didn't want to have to kill him if he did. But yet, he was the one that was the aggressor. So I knew both parties involved. That was the work we do. That's the work we train on. That's why I said native to the community. I remember going and talkinh to the guy that had been hit upside the head bad with this pistol. I thought to myself, what am I to tell somebody who had just been hit upside the head? Most people want to get back. But all I could think about was trying to pull the positive out to him and let him see how things won, how they could have been worse, how they can get worse. I mean, not that I was condoning him getting hit, but he could have been dead. We know of other situations. They both were intoxicated with alcohol. We know a situation like that don't always just have to wind end up with someone… Hey, and thank God that I'm even here to talk to you.So, I found myself in a positive situation, just talking to both sides, letting them know that they were friends, letting them know that things could have been much worse. We have the opportunity now. No one's shot. No one's, you know... Yes, you're bruised up. It's more so your pride. Your pride is more bruised than anything. It wasn't something life-threatening where he lost an arm or couldn't hear anymore. As hard as it is, you have to believe in your superpower. So you have to be able to still find positive things and tell them. Most people say they don't want to hear that. I don't want to hear that. If you have the right superpower and you're able to do it, they will hear it. For now, your superpower will break down their power of thinking that there's nothing nobody can tell me. So all I did was take the time to point out all the positives. These two individuals are friends today. But it wasn't like an overnight thing. That's one story.Marcus offers some tips for developing positivity and love as superpowers:* He believes that training your mind and brain to seek the positive, even when you don't feel like it, is beneficial in the long run.* Finding the good can be practiced and strengthened over time, just like any skill.* Marcus gives an example of missing a flight and finding the silver linings in it rather than dwelling on the negative.* He advises practicing finding the good in all situations, no matter how small until it becomes second nature.* By doing so, one can respond positively even in more serious situations, such as losing a job, because they have built resilience through practicing on smaller issues.By following Marcus's example and advice, you can develop optimism as a superpower that will enable you to do more good in the world.Guest-Provided ProfileMarcus McAllister (he/him):CEO/ Founder, McAllister Consultancy & Training LLC.

Sigur Rós — ÁTTA (2023)

On this special edition of All Songs Considered, Bob Boilen speaks with Jónsi, from the Icelandic band Sigur Rós, about ÁTTA, that group's first studio album in more than 10 years. Coming out 26 years after they released their first album, ÁTTA is music the group made over years, first in informal reunions in Jónsi's basement before and during the COVID pandemic, and eventually in collaboration with the London Contemporary Orchestra. The unmistakable singer talks about how it felt to have the band playing together again after a decade and reveals some of the meaning behind the first single from the album.

Grand Tour season is in full swing, and the Pretty Serious crew is here to break down the action. Ruth Winder and Caley Fretz join Dane Cash and Cosmo Catalano this week to talk:Overperformers and underperformers from the Giro's opening TTA changing of the guard for the sprinters?Controversy with the timing of a key move and decisions made by officials at the Vuelta FemeninaA thrilling conclusion to the race Hosted on Acast.

This week, Chris Easom from the UK stops in to chat about her unique Hanson experiences. You may know her from her Hanson.net or social media handle which is tayzbeth. Chris became a fan at the age of 43 in 2000 when TTA was released. The music resonated with her 70s teen years of Motown, Stax, poprock and - I love this- the bloom of youth. She's reported for Hanson.net, met the band, seen them 50 + times, and visited Tulsa a few times. She also writes for MMMBoptastic.com in a piece called Tulsa Times. Chris was also the lucky winner of a recent Food on the Move initiative which saw her have a Zoom call with Taylor Hanson and the Food on the Move crew. We also dive into Yearbook, from the Middle of Nowhere album. This is a song that has long perplexed Hanson fans and remains one of the most talked about songs to date. You can find Chris @tayzbeth and/or @mmmboptastic www.mmmboptastic.com I hope you enjoy! Megan x

I'm delighted to have with me now Debbie Moore. Debbie runs the high achievers coaching company. And she is she's got some great coaching advice, I think for real, really high performing teams, high performing companies. So I'm really looking forward to this conversation. Debbie, welcome to questions over coffee.Debbie Moore 00:51Thank you so much.Stuart Webb 00:55Just put my water down here. Because if I drink any more tea or coffee today, I'll probably not sleep for the rest of the month. And there's not much left in this month. So Debbie, tell me, what is it you do with your clients? Who are your clients? What are they? One of the problems? They've got the you're trying to help them to solve?Debbie Moore 01:15Okay, great question, Stuart. Thank you. So I think first of all, I've kind of gone through what I would call my a bit of an r&d phase last year, and I'm just getting clearer and clearer and clearer, who I'm here to serve. Now the problems that I'm here to solve. And the people that I am predominantly working with now are who are classes, young professionals, so young professionals, leaders, entrepreneurs, and when I say young, they're typically in their 30s, although that might vary a little bit anyway, they're younger than me. And the problems, the challenges that I hear, that they are particularly faced with the stories that I keep hearing are, that they feel they're living a life that somebody else envisaged for them. Meaning the times that we grew up in, and I'll kind of put you in the same kind of age group, as me, if you don't mind, is different to what that younger generation is experiencing, socially, politically, economically across the board technologically. And they find that they're working in some structures and with some principles that are not working for them. So they're feeling out of alignment, and they're feeling stuck. And it's resulting sometimes in exhaustion in sometimes a lack of motivation. And it's feeling quite UK. That's they're the stories that I often hear sometimes, if they're working in teams, despite their best efforts, they might not be able to communicate effectively with their teams. And then there's this frustration that sets in. And then they're wondering, why isn't this working? Now? Is it me? Is it my leadership, so it's then inward self blaming, which doesn't help either. And sometimes wisdom, other people that I'm working with, they do have a high aspiration to work in an aligned authentic and a healthy way where their life feels that it has more meaning. They just often don't know how to get there.Stuart Webb 03:35Debbie, I love the fact that you've got that clarity is so critical. Well to any business owner to have the absolute clarity of what is the problem that they have the solution for and having that absolute clarity, I think is really helped you to articulate that fantastically well. And if I can say, you have got, you know, a wonderful target audience there because you're so right, there are so many younger people who just are striving to do their best but but but you know, the pressure of social media and the pressure that people feel they have to show performance, etc. You're right. There are so many things at the moment which are which are besetting them. And I think it's great that you have got that focus and you are you are targeting that particular audience. I love that. Absolutely. Love it.Debbie Moore 04:29Thank you. I appreciate that. And there's one more thing actually that I didn't mention some smoothies people that they are incredibly successful in their own right things look like they're great on the outside, but on the inside, it's not and it can be a crisis of confidence, a lack of self confidence and that authentic confidence as well. Just wanted to name and presents that.Stuart Webb 04:51Yeah, and I think there's this there's a tremendous there's a tremendous, I do some work with with some with ship students and The thing which worries me so much about some of those students as they're coming out of it, and they feel the need to somehow demonstrate self esteem by putting on a sort of cloak, and they don't have what I would describe as their own self worth, they don't know. You know, they, they, I often describe it as a self esteem is where they, they walk down the street, and they want to know that they're allowed to walk down the street. So they put a mask on. But if they had true self worth, they wouldn't care whether or not they had to walk down the street, they just know the right street, to be honest, so few of them, I've got the clarity to say, I should be here. And I know that I'm doing the right thing. And, you know, they do need the help of people, aren't you? And I guess that brings me to question two, which is, what is it that you found that they've been doing which may or may not have helped them to get to where they need to be? And how do you help them to break through some of those, those barriers?Debbie Moore 05:54So what, before I respond to that studio, so just want to acknowledge that what you named and the insights you're having, and it just, it just makes me feel so sad that because that's what people are doing, you know, that they're putting on a mask putting on a face? And you don't have to do that. So thank you for naming that. So what I'm what I'm discovering is, I think, first and foremost, that, that people often think it's a weakness to ask for help and support, because that means being powerfully vulnerable. And people have not always yet discovered the power of being vulnerable and saying, you know, what, I don't know, can you help me? And sometimes, that's about who they ask, and feel. They're not always confident, or Sure, for example, in some workplaces, in some instance, situations, it might even be, you know, going to a networking event that they can actually speak up and say, you know, this is me, I'm not quite sure. But I'm, I'm trying to learn and I wonder who can you know, who can help me. And they often think it's the old Henry Ford quote, you know, if you, if you keep doing what you've always done, you'll always get what you've always got. And I know it's a well used your well use quote, but it's so true, because often what we're trying to do, is sought out those problems that we're experiencing from our beautiful logical thinking brain, but we're going round and round and round the same circle. And the other thing that I noticed is, by their very nature, we don't necessarily see our own patterns, we don't see our own limiting beliefs necessarily. And we certainly by their very nature, don't see our own blind spots. So that then leads to all sorts of challenges. And what often happens then is somebody might think, well, it's my job, my job is not working for me or my business is not working for me, like similar, or even my relationships not working for me. And they might suddenly summon up the courage to leave and think the right thing to do with start again. And then heaven forbid, what happens is the same patterns the same the same circumstances, but it's just in a different setting. And that that just breaks my heart. So what I find is that without the right help, and whether that's me or whether that's somebody else, but without the right help, people often don't have a clear, aligned authentic intention. That's then expanded not just through our thinking brain, but through our through our senses. So what it feels like to be moving towards that place, what it might look like, what it ignites smell like or sound like or tastes like, and having somebody along their side to sponsor them to support them to help them move into a growth mindset when challenges arise, because Surprise, surprise, they do. And it's also there's a couple of other things here. It's also about taking, really having somebody with you so that you can take aligned action and be held accountable. And I don't mean having a big sticker or anything like that. What I mean is that sense of okay, you took that loot, you took that action, you did something differently. So what worked about that, what didn't might you do differently next time. So it's one of my teachers, Dr. Clay Samet says, you know, let's composted and learn from it and then move forward.Stuart Webb 09:34I love that expression. I love that expression. I might borrow that sounds okay. I think he's lovely.Debbie Moore 09:40You're welcome.Stuart Webb 09:42I think that's a lovely expression, because you're right. And I love the reason that you put behind that because so often, these experiences that people have, they think they they're, they're bad and they need to be forgotten, but actually, it's the learning from it and taking the you know, changing them mindset and looking at it and going well, you know, that might not have worked the way I wanted. But if I did something else, or if I took from that this learning that I know, I won't do that, again, that's a positive and we don't do that enough, do we, we don't take the, and try and change the bad and the negative into something that we can use to become a positive spring forward.Debbie Moore 10:20Yeah, absolutely. And, and I think, I think the other thing is with that, when something happens, we often try and push it away. And when we try and push it away, it just gives it more energy. So that in itself needs and again, I'm gonna, I'm gonna quote, the dots close, dammit here. It needs sponsoring, it needs witnessing in in a in an appropriate way, so that we can composite that and help that be part of his moving forward. And that's really important.Stuart Webb 10:51Absolutely love it. Debbie, we've we've come to the part of the show where I now ask you to give us some valuable free resource valuable free advice that we can start to move forward from and I know you have a link that it would be worth making a note of which is HTTPS, colon forward slash slash, Debbie more and that's D, B, B, i e, more ammo or e coaching.com. Forward slash organisation? Debbie, tell us about that link. And what what the valuable offer is that you have going behind that link?Debbie Moore 11:25So thanks, thank you for that, Stuart, I appreciate it. So behind that link, there is an opportunity to connect with me for one on one if what I'm saying resonates with you for a one on one kind of 20 minute exploratory discussion so that we can just do a bit of laser coaching on where you are in your life right now. And there's also just to be totally transparent, an invitation to potentially be considered to join us in May where I'm going to show you running a new group coaching programme, it will be a small group of people learning together from one another's experiences called revolutionise your life. And we can have an exploratory chat about that, if you'd like to do so if you don't, and it's not sometimes it's not resonant working with me, I have a cohort of people who are referred people to and that might be a suitable, you know, possibility, or just the conversation might be enough. Whatever works for you,Stuart Webb 12:26Toby, I love that. I love the fact that, you know, you you acknowledge and we all need to acknowledge that sometimes the synergy isn't there. And that's, that's not a problem. There is no, there is no expectation that sort of, you know, taking up an offer like that is going to be calm. Right now there's the hard sell. This is an exploratory conversation, this is an offer. And and I love the fact that you will termina go Do you know, there's somebody else who perhaps you would get on better with, let's have a conversation about how I can introduce you to them. And I think that's really valuable.Debbie Moore 12:58Thank you. That's really important. Yeah, absolutely.Stuart Webb 13:01Is there a particular book or, or course or something, which, which enabled you to sort of unlock some of this coaching advice and, and would be a valuable resource for people to, to take on themselves?Debbie Moore 13:15That there is to us and within that, as well, if I may, and if you'll humour me today, I'd just like to offer a little experiment while we're while we're on the call. So I'll just talk to to your question directly, first of all, and then maybe offer something that might help people here today. So there are there are, there are 333 women actually, and and within that, some publications that might help people. So three women have inspired have inspired me and moms very many, many, and I do stand on the shoulders of giants. On is my leadership and body, embodiment somatic coach, teacher when department who God rest her soul, she actually passed in December. She actually taught me I really want to present her today because she actually taught me I have got a body as well as a head because growing up as I did, I kind of was disconnected and that's the other experience that I see with my clients today. We get disconnected from our our heads and our bodies. And I'll come back to that with a little exercise in a moment. And you can find when this work online and there is a book called Leadership embodiment, it's a valuable resource. My my teacher who I've been with now since 2013, Dr. Claire Samet is the founder of the Institute for Women centred coaching, leadership and training. And her work is all around her PhD research into the power blocks for women, which she's researched. into shame, like an isolation and how our limiting beliefs keep us stuck. And her work is absolutely game changing. And Claire is, is absolutely a high recommendation. And then the other one is, and it's a book series that I'm part of just to be transparent about this, and the inspirational leader behind that, because they are looking at and it's called the Payette, forward series notes for my younger self. And it's this there are four volumes now. And there are stories in there that are real life stories from women and men, about seminal moments in their life when they write back to their younger selves with the wisdom and the experience that they've gained where they are in their adult life right now. And that kind of brings me almost full circle to why I'm here today and doing what I'm doing. And it is about bringing that wisdom that I've learned from the shoulders of giants to try and help people today.Stuart Webb 16:04We we all stand on the shoulders of giants, don't we don't think we really do.Debbie Moore 16:08Yeah, so absolutely. So if you'll indulge me, if anybody wants to play along with this so. So we often what I want to speak to here is how we get triggered in a typically unconsciously. Now, some people listening to this may have done work in martial arts. So this may, this may just humour me and go along with this. So what I want to invite people to do, and you have to play along with this Stuart as well is if it's safe and comfortable to do so. So please make sure you're not driving or looking after young children are operating heavy machinery if it's safe and comfortable to do. So I just want to invite you to think about something that kind of happened today, low level, not a big unprocessed emotion, low level that's happened today or yesterday, that kind of triggered a reaction in your body might be an email coming in and you think ah, I should have answered that. Or it might be the telephone ringing and it's somebody who you don't want to talk to or you might be doing a talk. Or you might be at a meeting. And you notice that somebody suddenly falling asleep or yawning or looking away or rolling their eyes just something like that low level.Stuart Webb 17:27Okay. Mind a telephone call I didn't want to make.Debbie Moore 17:31Okay. Okay, so I want to invite you now to think about where is your attention, as you think about that. And you don't have to share it with me, but often are retail you can if you want often our attention then is on the stressor. It's on the telephone, it's on the call, it's on the screen where the emails come in. It's if you if you're in a meeting, it's it's on that person who might have your own doors, rolling their eyes. And all of a sudden, we start to run stories in our mind, I should have done that. I don't want to do this. So everybody must be bored because that person's rolling their eyes. And our our concentration then gets narrower and narrower and narrower. Yeah. So and thenStuart Webb 18:16I'm gonna have to agree with you every minute. Thank you knew I had to make that call. All I could think of was the reaction I was gonna get and what he was going to say and how I didn't want to have that discussion. And and suddenly, all I could think about was, Do I have to pick the phone up at all?Debbie Moore 18:33Yeah, so all of a sudden, whatever your intentions were for that day, it's gone out of the window, all your attention to that. And I just and thank you for for sharing that story because it just normalises this happens to us. And then I also want to invite you just to notice anything that you might feel in your body. So for example, any muscle groups that might tense Yeah. Yeah, so just noticing that just very gently from place of curiosity and wonder. Okay, so now I just want to just notice in all of that, so now I want to invite just to shake all that off, and I'm doing it with you just shake it all off that sort of right. So okay. Just Yeah, that's better. Okay. So now once we invite you to just make a shift, and you see, or if you're standing or if you're walking, and just think about you when you're at your best. And it might be for example, when you're cheering these these causes podcasts call Stuart, or it might be somebody who is out just having a walk and connecting with nature. Or it might be when you listen to music, it might be in your work. It might be when you're playing with your children, whatever. Just Just connect with you when you're at your best. And as you do that just seemed like to take a deep breath and as if you were breathing all the way down into your hips, down through your legs or the soles of your feet. Okay? Connecting with the earth. And just see if you need to make any minor adjustments, even 10% more. What would it be like even if I connect with myself even 10% More, and just taking a deep breath. And for some of us, we might actually want to do either Wonderwoman or Superman pose currently what Superman does, but no wonder woman goes like that and just lifts her head up a little bit and just have your chin just tilted up a little bit. And now take a deep breath. Once you do that, as you connect to you at your best, just feel the space as if the space and you've been supported from behind. And now, just in lighting to put up retention kind of out there a little bit on the horizon. Not too far, not too close. Now, I invite you to think about that telephone call? Or that email coming in? Or that person who's rolled their eyes in the meeting? And I wouldn'tStuart Webb 21:06think about it, you feel so much less worried about it.Debbie Moore 21:10And when you feel in less worried about it, what options does that give you? Oh,Stuart Webb 21:16what a good question. I can I can choose not to be angry when they make the comment I know they're gonna make because why do I need to be angry?Debbie Moore 21:28And what I'm hearing you say there, it gives you choice. It actually gives you choice about how to respond. And actually yeah, that person might be angry. And that might be legitimate. But that then might inform your response that might then take the conversation in a totally different direction to the direction it would have gone. So I just invite sorry, gone.Stuart Webb 21:53No, no, I'm just taking a lovely deep breath, Debbie.Debbie Moore 21:57You're welcome to do so. Is your podcast after all. So I just didn't like people. If that resonates for you just play with that and practice. It's just ah, and just getting to this place of I wonder what might that be how I respond to that telephone, call that email or event just expand a little and look beyond that person who's rolling their eyes. I wonder what my next step might be from there. So whatStuart Webb 22:27a lovely exercise. Thank you. Brilliant, brilliant exercise, I almost hate to ask you the question that I've got in my mind now, because it'll break the spell, but I'm gonna do it because that's the format of the coffee of the five questions over coffee. And my fifth question is, there is a question that I should have asked you by now. And I haven't. So what's the question? Please don't let it be. What is the email that what is the telephone call that I should have responded I had to make? Because that would be very cool. What is the question I should have asked you at this stage, which you are wanting me to ask. And then once you've, you've asked the question, then obviously you need to answer it for us.Debbie Moore 23:07Okay, so I'm not cruel. So I won't ask you that question. What I would do I'd get, I'd get really curious. And I'd challenge me and I would say, Okay, do you want your talk? And if you do what you talk, then what's the help and support? Or what's what's inspiring you to get to the next level in your life right now? Because like everybody else, I'm on my, I'm on my own growth edge. And my answer to that would be two things. One is this I'm in, in part of a leadership mastermind group with a global with some incredible global leaders, Athena leadership mastermind to try and raise my own level and my own contribution, my own thinking. And the other thing. Someone last week, introduced me to a woman, a woman's work, who I'd never ever heard of before. Until that time, Dr. Edith Eger, and Dr. Edith is 93 years old. She'd been in outfits, and she is incredible. Listening to her on the podcast, she has two books, the first one she wrote in 2017. And she put a publish another one three years ago at the age of 90, the choice and the gift. And both of those I've ordered, because I'm constantly up levelling, I'm a lifelong learner, and actually kind of share one more, please do the book that I'm reading right now is called the people part by Annie Hyman, what? And the hymens and the Hammonds what talks to as moving into this place of self leadership, rather than self protection and the benefit of that for people and organisationsStuart Webb 25:01I love I love that. And I will be I will be looking into certainly two of those books because they sound absolutely incredible. One of the reasons I should be looking into one of them is that I spent a day. And I expect in November of 2022, and it is a trip, I believe everybody should take. Because you learn a lot about yourself by looking at the that picture and whether or not you could choose to take away from that a positive or negative experience. If you can choose to take a positive from that, then you have achieved more or less things, Debbie, I'm going to thank you so much for spending those few minutes with us, and for taking us through that lovely exercise. And I do hope people, when they hear the replay of this, spend a few minutes thinking about making those choices, when you get that phone call, or when you have to make that phone call when you get that email or indeed, when you get bad news or whatever. Take the moment to just centre yourself and do the exercise to choose how to respond because that choice is so important to us. And thank you so much for sharing it.Debbie Moore 26:12See that. And thank you very much for your time today and having me on the podcast. I've really enjoyed it. Thank you so much.Stuart Webb 26:18It's no problem. Listen, I'm just going to say one thing, if you would like to get onto our mailing list so that you can get on and hear when the these are being done live and join us and watching participate in those discussions that we've just had.

For many Disney fans, the Tomorrowland Transit Authority PeopleMover is a true hidden gem, and one of the most beloved attractions in all of Walt Disney World. When you run into another Disney fan and you tell them you love the TTA (all the while thinking you're the only one who feels that way) more often than not their eyes will twinkle with recognition as they hurriedly blurt out “me too”! So tonight, we're going to celebrate our love for this classic attraction, and give it the recognition that it so richly deserves. Next stop, the Retro Metro Historical Society!

Note: When this episode was first published it referenced TTA #62. It is actually about TTA #64. We regret the error.In this episode:Mike and Ed discuss the “attack” on an American airline by Atlantians. The underwater empire used advanced technology to capture the airplane in a “bubble” and lower it to the water. No one was killed, or even injured, so was it an attack? Are America and Atlantis still at war? Or do we just not understand their culture? Do we have an urgent need for sociologists? How many fractions of Atlantian are there? Are there more in the Pacific?Behind the issue:Tales to Astonish are now split between Giant-Man/the Wasp and the Hulk. We cover the Hulk part of the issue in “part 3”.In this issue:Coming soon.

It's the third and final week of the June break, and this week we're bringing you a GBBT from last August! We'll be back next week with a new episode of the TTA! This month we're talking about trip frequency and how that impacts trip enjoyment. Should Disney be a place we visit multiple times a year, or is it better as a "once-ever-few-years" vacation spot? Additional topics include: Uber/Lyft stories Villains taking over park lands Bringing a ride to Mars Moods of the pure variety Ghost stories JTT Update Then we step outside the bubble to talk Small Town News: KPVM Pahrump, Marvel's What If?, and The Fugitive!

It's week two of the June break, and this week we're bringing you last July's GBBT episode! We'll be back next week with a new episode of the TTA! This month we're talking about humor and entertainment in the Walt Disney World parks and ways it could change/improve. Additional topics include: Driving Tests Baby Teeth Subway Stories Talking to our past selves Reviving cancelled ideas for the parks Our most and least favorite Disney animatronics! Then we step outside the bubble to talk massages and Ted Lasso!

Shorter episode than usual this week! Christine and I have a crazy June ahead of us, so we're using this time to make some changes to the Patreon, The GBBT, and the TTA feed itself! All the details are in the episode, but if you want the cliff notes, we've decided to: Pull every past episode of The GBBT from behind the paywall! You can watch/listen/download them all at www.patreon.com/TTAPodcast End the Patreon campaign formally at the end of this month. Thanks to your overwhelming support, the show is paid for and ad-free through the end of 2023! That's not to say that there will be ads for the show in 2024, but we'll cross that bridge when we get to it. Ultimately the costs are low enough that we didn't want to keep the campaign running when it wasn't needed. Expand this feed to include more variety. In short, the format of the show might change from week to week. Some weeks will feel like a traditional TTA episode, and some might feel more like the GBBT. Some weeks we might try something completely new! Lastly, since Christine will be away for two weeks this month and I'll be away for one, we're going to use this hiatus to introduce a few older episodes of the GBBT to the feed for folks who might not want to listen on Patreon. We'll be off for the next two weeks, and then back again on the 20th, and then off again the week after that.  Anyway thanks for listening and have a GBBT!

We're rereleasing a TTA classic this week! In 1974, auto executive Liz Carmichael claimed she'd invented a three-wheeled car called The Dale, which would get 70 miles per gallon. After raising over $3 million in investments and pre-orders though, she never built it. Was she a dreamer or fraudster? We argue the case with Sean Roschman.

This week Rob broke the TTA, so we have no Q&A or feedback.
