Over the years Darren and Mark have made…and seen…several mistakes. Today they're joined by Stage Time University faculty member Mike Davis as they discuss the mistakes they see most often…even after 30+ years of coaching. This episode feature mistakes #10 through #6 in the countdown. Avoiding these will help you to be unforgettable on the platform.   SNIPPETS:   • Avoid ending on Q & A or with a ‘THANK YOU' slide   • Circle back to your opening and end with impact   • Can your audience see themselves in your story   • Do research and homework to relate more closely with your audience   • Use present tense and phrases like “let me take you back…”   • End with punchy, concrete words   • Show the consequences of actions NOT taken   • Be clear on what is at stake   • Avoid continuous narration   • Use dialogue, body language and facial expression for depiction   6. Too Much “Tell,” Not Enough “Show” Why it matters: Narrating facts and feelings doesn't activate the audience's imagination. The brain craves visuals, dialogue, and motion.
 ✅ Fix: Include short bursts of scene-based storytelling. Show reactions. Use dialogue. Let us see and feel it.   7. Unclear If-Then Stakes Why it matters: Without an IF-THEN, there's no urgency. No reason to act. No consequence for staying the same. 
✅ Fix: Highlight the risk: “If I stayed silent, we would have lost the client. If I spoke up, I might get fired.”   8. Repetitive Sentence Structures or Passive Voice Why it matters: Flat rhythms, present participles, or soft endings weaken emotional impact and energy. 
✅ Fix: Use nouns and verbs up front. End sentences with punchy, concrete words. Vary rhythm.   9. No Audience Relevance or Personalization Why it matters: Some stories sound good but don't connect. If the audience can't see themselves in it, they tune out.
 ✅ Fix: Ask the reflective question during the story: “Have you ever felt like that?” or “What would you have done in that moment?”   10. Ending With a Fizzle, Not a Frame Why it matters: If the ending feels rushed, abstract, or purely emotional, the story won't stick. 
✅ Fix: Reframe the opening or image in a new way. Bring the story full circle. Land with clarity and resonance.   Work with Mark and Darren: https://www.stagetimeuniversity.com/get-a-speaking-coach/   Check Out Stage Time University: https://www.stagetimeuniversity.com

Die erfolgreiche junge Trompeterin über ihre Liebe zu Klassik und Jazz, ihre Vorbilder und ihre französische Heimat. Lucienne spielt am 14. Februar 2026 in der Elbphilharmonie  Weitere Infos über den Elbphilharmonie Talk Bei der Trompeterin Lucienne Renaudin Vary kommen Töne, Linien, Melodien mit einer Schwerelosigkeit daher, als spiele sie Blockflöte. »Die Trompete ist ein wunderbares und ursprüngliches Instrument«, meint die junge Französin. Ihre Virtuosität spielt die stets barfüßig auftretende Musikerin mit ebenso beneidenswerter wie unnachahmlicher Gelassenheit aus. Und dann ist sie auch noch so eigensinnig, sich in ihrem Repertoire ganz und gar nicht zu beschränken. Klar, Barock und Klassik sind gesetzt für Trompeter:innen, aber auch der Jazz ist für Lucienne Renaudin Vary viel mehr als ein Flirt. Sie stellt ihn gleichberechtigt neben die Klassik, spielt liebend gern Musik von Gershwin, Sidney Bechet oder Astor Piazzolla. Sie improvisiert in der Tradition des Swing und unterhält sogar ein eigenes Quintett. Im »Elbphilharmonie Talk« preist sie die Schönheiten ihrer Heimatstadt Le Mans, einer kleinen Stadt 200 Kilometer südwestlich von Paris. Sie spricht über ihre Liebe zum Meer und zu Frankreich. Und Lucienne Renaudin Vary bekennt freimütig, dass sie die Schuhschachtel als Konzertsaal-Form besser findet als rundbespielte Konzerthäuser wie den Großen Saal der Elbphilharmonie, in dem sie indes schon bei mehr als einem Dutzend Konzerte mitgewirkt hat. Ihr Lieblingstrompeter? Weder Louis Armstrong noch Miles Davis. Ihr Herz und ihr Ohr gehören dem Westcoast-Beau Chet Baker, dem gefallenen Engel des Jazz.

Active Mixing - From Boring to Baller Episode Overview In this episode, Michael Curtis shares practical strategies for creating more engaging, dynamic worship mixes. Drawing from his background as a professional bass player and mixer, he explores how intentionality and specificity can transform "boring" mixes into creative, engaging experiences that better serve worship environments. Time Stamps & Key Points Introduction [00:48] Michael introduces the concept of "active mixing" versus boring mixing The challenge: Moving beyond "it sounds fine" to creating engaging, dynamic mixes Creativity as the antidote to boring mixing Creativity Through Structure [01:41] Biblical concept of creation: bringing order from formlessness The playground analogy: Children with fenced playgrounds use 90% of the space vs. 30% without fences "Sometimes what feels like a straight jacket is actually a Narnia closet" Leadership through specificity and making finer distinctions Strategies for Worship Pastors [05:52] Prescriptive leadership can be valuable when appropriate The progression from 10 Commandments (prescriptive) to Sermon on the Mount (descriptive) Matching leadership style to team maturity level Create "sit-down chords" - signals that create clear expectations Setting up rhythms and cues that guide the worship team Organize tracks by function, not just instrument: Percussion: Rhythm-driving elements Foundation: Bass and low-end elements Filler: Pads and ambient elements Leads: Melodic elements that guide congregation Gamify growth paths for volunteers Create progressive learning steps (like unlocking levels in a game) Apply "arbitrary limits" that help beginners master fundamentals before moving on Name and assign musical ownership Clarify who owns each musical element at any given time Consider adding a dedicated "music producer" position Strategies for Musicians [12:36] "Rhythm Randy needs a retirement party" Moving beyond mindlessly strumming the chord chart Playing a part rather than just playing the chart Use the whole playground within boundaries Finding creative ways to express within structure Create "alley-oop" moments Intentional handoffs between instruments Setting up moments for other musicians to shine Beware of "bedroom vacuums" Sounds created in isolation often take up too much sonic space Smaller sonic footprint needed in larger ensembles Interesting is greater than good Focus on creating compelling sounds, not just technically correct ones Hire both "Jekyll and Hyde" Balance between foundational players and texture specialists Strategies for Front of House Engineers [18:57] Be the guide - lead with your decisions Take charge of the mix and make intentional choices Use contrast effectively Create distinction between elements (can't have "close" without "far") Highlight different instruments in different sections Anticipate "oops" moments, don't just react Push faders before transitions, not after they happen Vary verse highlights Intentionally feature different instruments in different verses Keep congregation engaged through variety Develop common tonal language The "5-1-2" system for describing frequency ranges Creating shared vocabulary for sound issues Reference the real Compare your mix to professional recordings Combat ear fatigue by checking against references Mise en place - everything in its place Strategic console layout for efficient mixing Positioning faders for easy access during active mixing Conclusion [24:25] Start with clear direction (10 Commandments approach) then move to principles (Sermon on the Mount) Have the courage to be specific with your team Embrace structure as a pathway to creativity Key Quotes "Sometimes what feels like a straight jacket is actually a Narnia closet." "Move away from playing the chart to playing the part." "It is in that company's best interest to give you a patch that sounds great out of the box, but that's taking up a lot of real estate to make it sound good on its own." "Be the guide, take charge, lead your congregation with your decisions." "There cannot be close if there's not far, there cannot be wide if there isn't narrow." "Interesting is greater than or at least equal to good." Practical Applications For Worship Pastors: Organize tracks by function rather than instrument type Create clear growth paths for volunteers Be appropriately prescriptive with newer team members For Musicians: Consider your sonic footprint within the full band context Play intentional parts, not just the chord chart Create sounds that are interesting, not just technically correct For Sound Engineers: Use your left and right hands strategically on the console Intentionally highlight different instruments in different verses Reference professional mixes to maintain perspective Connect & Continue For more insights on active mixing and creative worship production, connect with Michael Curtis and the Church Front team.

Stačilo rozehrát úvodní partie čtvrtfinále extraligového play off a fanoušci se mají o čem dohadovat, experti o co přít. Emoce znovu budí zákroky, které rozhodčí buď nevidí, nebo pustí, anebo ohodnotí přísněji, než je záhodno. Nejde přitom jenom o neostřeji sledovanou sérii mezi Třincem a Spartou, kde se to kontroverzemi jen hemží a hemžit zřejmě bude. Různorodé ohlasy v éteru mají i duely mezi Kometou a Karlovými Vary. Dost příležitostí pro nový díl podcastu Zimák, kde tentokrát dojde i na ostřejší výměnu názorů mezi Radkem Dudou a Zbyňkem Irglem? Důvod?

No Flat WritingA lot of writers will worry that their stories seem flat. There's a reason that they are worrying about that and it's one of the core elements of good writing.Ready?A lot of the times your story seems flat because all your sentences are the same layout.You want to vary your sentence structure.Take a bit of writing that you've done that feels flat—or maybe even one that doesn't. Count the words in your sentences for two or three paragraphs.Are they all five word sentences? Twelve? Twenty-seven?That robotic sameness in sentence length is one of the main reasons that writing can feel flat.It's like those ancient Dick and Jane books.See Dick run. See Jane skip. See Dick wave.The other big bugger is when all of your sentences are simple and declarative.I walk to the forest. The trees are gracious, tall. I inhale the pine scent.There is actually a whole, entire world of different sentence styles that writers can use and when you use them? That's when you make your writing shiny and sexy and all the good things.The names for these structures are pretty boring, honestly, but we'll try to look beyond that, right?Simple – You have one main clause.Carrie is the best wife.Compound – You have more than one independent clause. You probably use a conjunction.Carrie wants to get another dog, but Shaun keeps saying no.Complex – Oh, the sentence that probably has to pay for a therapist or is reading Foucault obviously in the park. This sentence has an independent clause and a subordinate clause.When hell freezes over, we will allegedly get another dog.Compound-Complex – It sounds like a place with a cult, right? But it's just a sentence with at least two independent clauses and one subordinate clause.Carrie really needs a new dog to love, so Shaun said that they would get one when hell freezes over, so Carrie immediately purchased some dry ice at WalMart and sent some down to Lucifer.So, to keep your writing from feeling flat, you want to vary those sentences. Why?It keeps the reader engaged. It helps highlight important details. It helps vary tone. It puts emphasis on things (especially when you use a short sentence for that). It sounds more real. People don't speak in identical sentence patterns. When they do, just like in your writing, it feels unnatural and stilted. It can be easier to follow when you change your sentence structure up.How do you vary the structure?Use different lengths, like we mentioned above Use different types of sentences like we also mentioned above. Throw in that complex sentence in the middle of all your simple sentences. Don't start all your sentences the same (the way I did up there).Refresher moments:What's a clause? A bunch of words chilling out together and one of those words in the group is a verb and another is a noun. Fancy people call the verb, the predicate, but we aren't fancy here.What's an independent clause? It is a bunch of words that has a subject and a predicate. Got fancy! It is grammatically complete all by itself and doesn't need anyone. Not any other words to stand alone! Darn it.What's a subordinate or dependent clause? A bunch of words that needs other words to be a sentence. This poor beautiful baby cannot stand alone and be complete, kind of like a protagonist in a Hallmark romance.DOG TIP FOR LIFE!Vary how you bark to your humans. Sometimes go ‘bark bark.'

After Chuck Jones left Warner Brothers, owing to many factors but not unrelated to Gay Purr-ee, he spent several years as an in-house director at MGM, which led to his entire Warner unit making Tom & Jerry theatrical shorts. Thus, Marc and Jordan look at three of them here, including Pent-House Mouse, Ah Sweet Mouse-Story of Life, and Cat and Dulpli-cat. This era of Tom and Jerry has a reputation, and the key to it hinges on Chuck himself, and his ability to understand what makes a great Tom and Jerry cartoon; he didn't.

Wendy MacNaughton on her Substack Draw Together talked about negative space this week and she wrote,“Negative Space performs many functions: it focuses our eyes on the subject, it moves our eyes around a drawing or it keeps them still, it allows for visual space/room to breathe, and sometimes it gives the subject an extra layer of meaning.“For example, ever seen this logo before?“Sure, you've probably seen it a million times.“But have you noticed the hidden symbol in the logo?! Focus your attention on the negative space of the logo - the space between the letters. Do you see it? Look between the E and the X. Now do you see the arrow?? YES. It's subtle. It took me YEARS to see it. But once you see the arrow formed by the negative space you can't unsee it. In this case, designer Lindon Leader used the negative space to create an image that informs the meaning of the subject. An arrow takes your package from here to there. Very clever, Lindon.”This obviously has societal implications, which she writes about as well. She talks about sociologist W.E.B Du Bois' work Data Portraits: Visualizing Black America, which shows in data and visualization what was and wasn't going on.In writing, we call this negative space white space, right?How writers use it impacts readers' experiences.It focuses attention on shorter words and paragraphs. It gives a visual break—especially when it's at the end of the scene or chapter, right? A new chapter almost always begins on a new page. There's a reason for that. It's to let that last bit resonate. It's to signal, “Hey! Rock star! You just read a chapter!”So… how do you create white space?Make your sentences shorter. Vary these babies. Make your paragraphs shorter. Vary these babies, too. In articles, make lists. Make sure in dialogue that each person speaking gets their own paragraph. Don't embed the dialogue.WHY NEGATIVE SPACE IS GOOD IN OUR LIVES, TOOLast week, on our blog, I talked about how boredom is actually a pretty awesome thing.But basically, being bored allows us to have creativity, to replenish, to incubate ideas a and thoughts.RANDOM THOUGHT LINKOur random thought came from here.DOG TIP FOR LIFEPOGIE AND MR MURPHY DOG: This is 100% positive truth.

When making vinaigrette, always use quality olive oil and vinegar. Vary the vinegar here, if you like. Red wine vinegar has more intensity than white wine vinegar and is good matched with more assertive herbs, such as oregano. Sherry vinegar, derived from the fortified wine, is a little stronger in character than red or white wine vinegar. Sherry vinegar has a golden hue and burnished flavor that complements roasted peppers, especially. Champagne vinegar is finer, still, with a lighter body and color. And then there is balsamic vinegar. Made from the juice of the Trebbiano grape, it has a distinctive sweet flavor and caramel color that come from aging in oak barrels. There are balsamic vinegars as rare as fine wines, with commensurate prices as well. A collection of vinegars allows for an interesting repertoire of vinaigrettes. We recommend having red and white wine vinegars, as well as balsamic, on hand as a matter of course.

Ottova vyhlídka patří mezi méně známé výletní cíle návštěvníků Karlových Varů. Nachází se v lázeňských lesích na vrcholu Ottovy výšiny v nadmořské výšce 602 metrů. Původně se toto místo nazývalo Orientační výšina. Po návštěvách řeckého krále Otty I. bylo ale přejmenováno na jeho počest. Vyhlídka nabízí nádherný panoramatický pohled na Karlovy Vary a okolní krajinu.

In episode 635, Prerna Malik teaches us how to create a welcome sequence to share content from our blog as well as sell digital products, like courses and ebooks, without being salesy or icky. Co-founder of Content Bistro and a Copyhackers-certified, conversion copywriter, Prerna is the sales strategist and copywriter behind multiple million-dollar launches and 6-figure evergreen sales funnels in niches as diverse as astrology and homesteading! She has written for iconic brands such as Pat Flynn, Amy Porterfield, Copyhackers, Vanessa Lau, Handle the Heat, School of Traditional Skills, and 1000s of others! She is also the creator of the strategy-focused sales copywriting program — Ready-to-Sell. Prerna and her co-founder-slash-husband, Mayank have built an intentionally profitable business while living in India and raising their daughter, Manini.  In this episode, you'll learn about how to sell in a way that you would want to be sold to, Prerna's 6C framework for an effective welcome sequence, and why you should not use generic email templates. Key points discussed include: Avoid using generic, plug-and-play templates for your welcome sequence: Your welcome sequence should be personalized and reflective of your brand and connection with your audience. A welcome sequence is not just one email: It should be a series of emails that guide your new subscribers through getting to know you and your offerings. Connection-based welcome sequences work best for food bloggers: Lead with building a personal connection before asking for a sale. Sell in a way you'd want to be sold to: Avoid tactics that make you or your audience feel icky, like fake promises or guilt-tripping. Use the "6C" framework: Celebrate the sign-up, Connect with your audience, Cultivate community, Convert with a sales pitch, Connect again with social proof, and Close by preparing them for your regular emails. Space out your welcome emails: Send them one day apart to improve deliverability and engagement. Include a story, specific details, and your expertise ("3S") in each email: This makes the content more engaging and valuable. Vary your offers in the email signature/footer: This allows you to show relevant products to different segments of your audience. Pay close attention to your subject lines and preview text: These are crucial for getting your emails opened. Remember that "selling is serving": Your products and offerings are valuable, so don't be afraid to promote them to your audience. Connect with Prerna Malik Website | Instagram

We then pivot into some talk on protein in adaptation and recovery. When in doubt, the answer for us is often to throw some protein on it. Next was a truly wild study that looked at low energy availability and managed to do the impossible: it included a control group that was blinded to the intervention. How is it even possible to make subject unaware of their caloric intake? How could 2 weeks of intentional underfueling be allowed ethically? We delve into a new frontier of nutrition and performance science. And this one was jam-packed with fun topics! Other topics: banging the cymbal, what we learned in the few months since the Rich Roll episode was recorded, why enhancing "fat metabolism" via nutritional interventions has limited utility, a review study on swearing and performance, how that has implications for self-talk and internal monologues generally, the emerging science of continuous lactate monitors, our predictions for their future use, an article on the uncertainty of ketones, contrasting that with their widespread adoption in endurance sports, a study on gold medalist Kristian Blummenfelt, how he meets his astronomical fueling needs, how heart rate zones vary across athletes, why everyone is different with heart rate, and Listener Corner. Thank you all for the love and support to make any of this possible. We love you all! HUZZAH!

It's been an expensive year, with rising costs hitting from every direction and Christmas trees aren't exempt. Morning Report producer Emma Ricketts has more.

This episode explains why the definition of Chief of Staff is all over the place due to the role's relative newness in business. Examples from around the world illustrate how the role varies: in Singapore, it's little known; in Mexico, it's often confused with HR; and in Germany, it has military connotations. Emily suggests the role will become more structured and better understood in the next 10-15 years.Links Mentioned:Clarity Call with EmilyFree Resources:Strategic Planning Checklist Chief of Staff Skills Assessment ChecklistA Day in the Life of a Chief of StaffChief of Staff ToolkitGet in touch with Emily:Connect on LinkedInFollow on YouTubeLearn more about coaching Sign up for the newsletterClarity Call with EmilyWho Am I?If we haven't yet before - Hi
