Over the weekend, a rally featuring congressional candidate Melat Kiros and leftist political pundit Hasan Piker was booted from three locations before settling on the steps of the Capitol. By the time the gathering kicked off Sunday afternoon, Piker had dropped out and Kiros accused her challenger, incumbent Diana DeGette, of sabotaging the rally. So, what really happened?

Mark Edge speaks with Eric Brakey, Executive Director of the Free State Project, at the Libertarian National Convention about why concentrating libertarians in one state is producing real, measurable wins — while national third-party politics keeps spinning its wheels. They cover the culture of accomplishment over endless philosophical debates, New Hampshire's unique citizen legislature, the New Hampshire Liberty Alliance's scorecard system, and why the Free State may be libertarianism's best shot at lasting change.

I often get a common question after people attend our 2-day presentation class. “Now that I feel more confident, where do I go to practice to continue to get better as a speaker?” “How can I continue to grow as a great speaker?” The best way to continue to grow is with continued and consistent use of your presentation skills. If you take a public speaking class and then don't present again for a year, your new skills wither away.Today I'll be telling you just how to avoid that! Here is everyway I know of for new presenters to practice their craft!Show Notes: How to Find Great Public Speaking Venues to Practice Your Presentations(https://www.fearlesspresentations.com/podcast-15-how-find-great-venues-practice-your-presentations/)

If you've ever felt like hosting a retreat is way more complicated than it should be… You're not wrong. In this episode of The Retreat Leaders Podcast, Shannon Jamail sits down with returning guest Anna VanAgtmael to talk about what's broken in the retreat industry-and what she's building to fix it. Because right now:

Fans will not be permitted to bring reusable water bottles into World Cup stadiums due to safety issues, as stated by Fifa in a recent policy update. The official code of conduct for the stadium previously indicated: "To clarify, empty, transparent, reusable plastic bottles with a capacity of up to (1 litre) may be taken into the stadium."However, just seven days prior to the tournament commencing on 11 June, the prohibition has been extended to include bottles, cups, jars, and cans, with Fifa asserting that this measure will reduce the risk of injury from fans throwing objects. "Fifa is dedicated to ensuring the health and safety of all players, referees, fans, volunteers, and staff," the governing body of football stated in an announcement.Fans will have the option to purchase water within the stadium, and Fifa has assured that prices will not exceed the standard rates for the venue. This reversal follows alerts from scientists regarding the inadequacy of Fifa's heat safety protocols for the tournament, as temperatures at 14 of the 16 host venues are expected to surpass hazardous levels. "Fifa collaborates closely with each host city committee and local authorities on measures to mitigate heat for fans attending the stadium, which may include amenities such as misting stations, fans, hydration stations, cooling tents, and more within the stadium area," Fifa's statement elaborated."Inside the stadium footprint, pricing for water bottles for the Fifa World Cup 2026 will remain consistent with other events held at each stadium." The change in policy comes amid complaints that fans are being hit by "extortionate" ticket prices and inflated train fares. Fans were also prevented from taking bottles into stadiums at the last World Cup in Qatar.

Bad Bunny, Shakira, Radiohead y Adele están mostrando que las residencias ya no son solo una fórmula para artistas veteranos o shows de Las Vegas: se han convertido en uno de los modelos más potentes del negocio de la música en vivo.En este episodio de El Arte del Negocio Musical analizamos qué nos dicen las residencias sobre el futuro del directo: por qué seducen a artistas, promotores y ciudades; cómo permiten reducir costes de producción y logística; y de qué manera convierten un concierto en un acontecimiento cultural y turístico.También abordamos la otra cara del modelo: el encarecimiento de la experiencia para los fans, la concentración de grandes shows en pocas ciudades y el riesgo de que este formato solo esté al alcance de artistas con una demanda masiva. De Radiohead a Bad Bunny, pasando por Shakira y Adele, exploramos cómo las residencias están redefiniendo la relación entre artistas, público, venues y promotores.

Joe Fried has a theory about why verdict values stay low in conservative states. “If there are cases where somebody's asking for $30, $50 million, and they're not getting it, I may need to listen to that. But if nobody is asking for that – if they're asking for $5 million in a wrongful death case – then of course they're not getting $30.” The celebrated trucking litigator returns to TLU to share lessons from two recent cases: a $2.3–$2.4 million verdict and a near-$100 million settlement. Tune in to this conversation with host Dan Ambrose for a masterclass in finding hidden trucking coverage, mediating at the start negotiation, and managing fear – but not getting rid of it entirely. After all, your client hired you to be their voice. “I hope you feel the weight of it.”Train and Connect with the Titans☑️ Joe Fried | LinkedIn☑️ Fried Goldberg | Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn | X | YouTube☑️ Trial Lawyers University☑️ TLU On Demand Instant access to live lectures, case analysis, and skills training videos☑️ TLU on X | Facebook | Instagram | LinkedIn☑️ Subscribe Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube2026 Programming☑️ TLU Beach, June 3-6, Huntington Beach, CAEpisode SnapshotJoe describes a back-to-back trial calendar year in which cases repeatedly resolved days — or even the morning — before trial.In Newport News, Joe represented the family of a teenager who was killed when the car he was riding in struck the rear corner of an illegally parked tractor-trailer.The jury returned a verdict of $2.3–2.4 million — beating the defense's pre-trial offers by roughly a million dollars.In a different case, Joe represented a 10-month-old girl who was left an incomplete quadriplegic after a truck rear-ended her 16-year-old mother's car. The life care plan was approximately $30 million – and the case settled for just under $100 million.At the upcoming TLU Beach, Joe will present on these topics: applying trucking methodologies to non-nine-figure trucking cases (Thursday); understanding his updated “speed trial” approach (Friday), and then back-to-back sessions on connecting with witnesses and covering trucking cases from the basics through advanced strategies (Saturday).Produced and Powered by LawPods

This week on the New Music Business podcast, Ari sits down with Red Leather, the anonymous artist who turned viral TikTok videos into sold-out tours around the world. Known for his signature red hat, Red Leather first started his career by busking on Hollywood Boulevard before exploding online with viral covers and original songs like “The Only Time It Rains in Hollywood.” In this episode, Red Leather breaks down how he used social media to grow his audience from scratch, why he posted 5 videos a day for 100 straight days, how smashing guitars outside Capitol Records landed him a record deal (that he turned down), and why ticket sales matter more than streams or viral moments. He also opens up about sobriety, surviving addiction, touring independently, and eventually partnering with Empire after years of doing everything DIY.Follow Red Leather:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/redleather/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@redleatherCheck out Ari's Take:https://aristake.com00:04:02 - Intro00:04:36 - The Origin of Red Leather00:06:39 - Sobriety, Addiction & Artistic Vulnerability00:10:11 - Posting 5 Videos a Day for 100 Days00:14:11 - The Viral TikTok That Changed Everything00:20:00 - Smashing Guitars Outside Capitol Records00:25:12 - Why He Turned Down Major Label Deals00:33:28 - Booking Tours Through Instagram DMs00:47:23 - Virality vs Real Fans & Ticket Sales01:01:58 - What “Making It” Means TodayEdited and mixed by Ruben ZarateMusic by Brassroots DistrictProduced by the team at Ari's TakeOrder the THIRD EDITION of How to Make It in the New Music Business: https://book.aristake.com Hosted on Acast.

Hello Groovers, This week's Liquid Sunshine explores French Touch and its enduring influence—those signature elements that made the genre unmistakable: spacious basslines that breathe, perfectly chopped disco samples, and that hypnotic sidechaining that makes everything pulse together. From the genre's architects like Cassius, Modjo, and Alan Braxe & Fred Falke to artists who carried the torch forward like Boston Bun and Lifelike, these tracks share that distinctly French approach to house music where less is more and every element has room to shine. It's two hours celebrating a sound that proved you don't need to fill every frequency—sometimes the space between the notes is what makes people move.

Arkells are at a stage of success where they can easily sell out large amphitheatres across Canada. But with their new record Between Us, the band has chosen to do something different with the tour: city takeovers. Instead of booking large venues for one night, the boys are spending multiple days in Canadian cities, playing smaller stages and more intimate shows. Arkells frontman Max Kerman and guitarist Mike DeAngelis tell Tom Power why they wanted to replicate what it felt like in the early days, and what both they and the fans get out of small, up-close-and-personal shows.

Gav and James dive back into the mailbag to tackle the topics of the day: the importance of grassroots venues, how their “future” headliner predictions panned out and how cancelled are the cancelled?Buy your We Lost The Sea tickets: https://www.seetickets.com/tour/we-lost-the-seaAnd your pod merch: www.nomad-stores.com/collections/2-promoters-1-podWe go again, every Thursday morning.

In this episode, Charles interviews filmmaker and vinyl enthusiast Steve Herold, best known for the award-winning short film Death of an Umbrella Salesman. Steve takes us back to the summer of 1984 and his first concert — the Thompson Twins on their Into the Gap tour at the Garden State Arts Center in New Jersey. He shares how the show almost didn't happen, thanks to a failed attempt to see Van Halen at Madison Square Garden, and how that near-miss planted the seed for a lifetime of concert-going. The real coming-of-age concert moment, Steve admits, came two years later when he finally saw David Lee Roth on his debut solo tour — a far wilder introduction to arena rock than the Thompson Twins had provided. Steve opens up about his most memorable concert experiences, including his best-ever shows: the New Jersey alternative band Dramarama at the legendary Fast Lane in Asbury Park in the early '90s. Those packed, sweat-soaked club nights — where getting to the bathroom was nearly impossible and crowd surfing was mandatory — turned Steve into a devoted fan and shaped his love of small-venue rock. He also recounts the 1996 Sex Pistols reunion at New York's Roseland Ballroom, an evening of full-on debauchery that ended with him and a friend finding a $50 bill on the floor — money that had fallen from the pockets of crowd surfers — and heading out to continue the night on someone else's dime. The image of punk-show attendees pouring out of Roseland and colliding with Broadway theatergoers on the sidewalk is one of the episode's most vivid moments. Beyond concerts, the conversation dives into Steve's YouTube channel, where he has spent years showcasing his vinyl and CD collection and visiting independent record stores during his travels for TV production work. He reflects on how the channel introduced him to a whole new community of fellow collectors — friendships that have taken him to record stores in Reno, Southern California, Long Island, and Charleston, South Carolina. Steve also discusses his filmmaking work, including the upcoming documentary about a former Hot Tuna drummer who is also a visual artist, and two music videos he directed for his friend's garage rock band Manflesh, one of which is set to screen at the Coney Island Film Festival. The episode wraps with a shared appreciation for the Wet Leg concert both Charles and Steve attended in 2025, and a laugh-out-loud detour into the chaotic legacy of G.G. Allin. BANDS: Agent Orange, David Lee Roth, Dramarama, Eagles, G.G.

He opened his first venue from a counter so small it could barely fit a table. No hotel background. No hospitality degree. Just restlessness, a borrowed chef, and a bet on Dubai. Twenty years later, he runs 112 venues across 26 countries, employs over 7,000 people worldwide, and is navigating one of the most uncertain periods this city has ever seen.  In this episode, Spencer sits down with Antonio, founder and CEO of Sunset Hospitality Group, for one of the most grounded and honest conversations about business, crisis, and the enduring power of human connection. Antonio doesn't deal in corporate lines. He'll tell you that people were walking out of his restaurants mid-lunch on February 28th. That almost every day he asks himself "what the hell am I doing?" That the hardest part of running a business isn't competition or cash, it's the people decisions that feel unfair even when they're necessary.  But he'll also tell you something that very few business leaders are willing to say right now: that Dubai cannot be replaced. That nobody he knows has left. That those who stay, adapt, and plan for every scenario will emerge stronger on the other side.  Whether you're an entrepreneur wondering if now is the right time to invest, a leader trying to hold your team together through uncertainty, or someone who simply loves this city and wants to understand what's really happening on the ground, this conversation will stay with you.    Timestamps:  0:00 – What is Sunset Hospitality and the Dubai origin story  1:34 – February 28th: customers walking out mid-lunch and the moment everything changed  3:00 – Shock, acceptance, and action: leading 7,000 people through the unknown  9:32 – Why Dubai cannot be replaced and an honest forecast for the next 12 months  12:20 – Almost nobody has left — what Antonio is actually seeing on the ground  15:30 – Why he got into hospitality and how it actually started  17:50 – His father's influence, ten years in corporate, and why restlessness drove everything  22:00 – Cash is king, hotels in the wrong countries, and surviving the Arab Spring  24:15 – The Dubai Mall counter, the Westin breakthrough, and riding the 2012 wave  28:00 – Transactional vs. experiential hospitality and why one will never be automated  32:30 – Acquisitions, imposter syndrome, and building without an industry background  37:00 – Quickfire: non-negotiables, advice for corporate escapees, and gut vs. data  40:15 – Would he invest in hospitality right now?  41:15 – Surrender is never an option: planning A, B, and C under uncertainty  42:00 – The hardest part of the crisis: letting good people go    Follow Spencer Lodge on Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/madeindubaipodcast/?hl=en  https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61586194260076  https://www.instagram.com/spencer.lodge/?hl=en https://www.tiktok.com/@spencer.lodge  https://www.linkedin.com/in/spencerlodge/  https://www.youtube.com/c/SpencerLodgeTV  https://www.facebook.com/spencerlodgeofficial/    Follow Antonio on Social Media: https://www.instagram.com/antonio_gonzalez___/  https://www.linkedin.com/in/antoniogonzalez-shg/  https://www.instagram.com/sunsethospitalitygroup/  https://www.linkedin.com/company/sunsethospitalitygroup/ 

Hello Groovers, This week's Liquid Sunshine is all about the bass—because no matter the genre, the tempo, or the era, it's always about that low-end foundation. From Fela Kuti's relentless Afrobeat groove and Orchestra Latina's Latin funk thump to KiNK's deep house rumble and Henrik Schwarz's hypnotic throb, every track is built on basslines that don't just support the music—they drive it, define it, and demand your body's attention. It's two hours that prove the eternal truth: you can strip away everything else, but if the bass is right, people will move. Clickety Click on the link to listen Oh yeah, good times!

Venues aren't looking for artists who need them, they're looking for artists who are ready. Host Alyson Stanfield introduces the attraction method: a way of building genuine relationships with venues long before you ever make an ask. For alternative venues, the timeline from first contact to a yes can be weeks instead of years. In this episode, Alyson covers: Why readiness is more than finished work, and what signals to a venue that you're prepared How alternative venues operate on an entirely different timeline than galleries The research and in-person visit steps that show a space you're worth talking to What separates "Can I show my art here?" from an opener that actually starts a conversation Why consistent, genuine presence means venues sometimes do the asking before you do Visit this episode's page for all resources MENTIONED Beyond White Walls workshop Elevate Your Art workshop RELATED EPISODES The artists who don't wait to be chosen (264) Use the attraction method for art venues before you make the ask (265)   Email me to discuss strategic consulting for your long-term career goals.

Christchurch's One New Zealand Stadium opened to a full crowd over the weekend, with the Crusaders christening their new home with a win. Inkster Company owns major venues in the city, including The Church Pub, OGB's and Paddy McNaughtons. Its co-owner Nick Inkster spoke to Ingrid Hipkiss.

One of the biggest challenges in the retreat industry isn't marketing, pricing, or programming. It's the gap between retreat leaders and retreat venues. Retreat leaders struggle to find the right venues. Venue owners struggle to fill their calendars with the right retreats. And somewhere in the middle, opportunities are missed. In this episode of The Retreat Leaders Podcast, Shannon Jamail sits down with Emily Johnson, founder of Elevate Hospitality Collective, to talk about the disconnect between retreat leaders and venues - and how the industry can bridge that gap. Emily brings years of experience in the hospitality industry, working with boutique hotels and retreat centers to help them attract wellness travelers and retreat leaders. Her work focuses on helping venues improve their positioning, marketing, and sales strategies so their spaces can move from empty calendars to thriving retreat businesses. Together, Shannon and Emily explore the rapid growth of the wellness travel sector - projected to become a trillion-dollar industry in the coming years - and what both retreat leaders and venue owners need to understand to take advantage of that growth. They also discuss practical strategies for retreat leaders who are selecting venues for their retreats and the common mistakes that create friction between hosts and properties. If you host retreats, run a retreat center, or are thinking about entering the retreat industry, this episode will give you a deeper understanding of how successful retreat partnerships are built. What You'll Learn in This Episode • Why there is often a disconnect between retreat leaders and retreat venues • How boutique hotels and retreat centers can attract more retreat leaders • The role hospitality strategy plays in filling retreat venues • Why the wellness travel sector is growing so rapidly • What retreat leaders should look for when choosing a venue • Why boutique hotels can be a great starting point for new retreat leaders Key Takeaways The Retreat Industry Has a Partnership Gap Many retreat leaders struggle to find the right venues while many retreat venues struggle to attract retreat leaders. The challenge often comes down to positioning, communication, and expectations. Retreat Centers Often Wear Too Many Hats Many retreat centers operate with small teams that are responsible for: marketing sales operations guest services event management Specialized support can help these venues better position themselves and attract the right retreat leaders. Wellness Travel Is Growing Rapidly The wellness travel sector is projected to become a trillion-dollar industry in the next 5–7 years. Retreat venues and retreat leaders who understand this shift will be better positioned to take advantage of the growing demand. Venue Selection Matters Emily and Shannon also discuss why retreat leaders should carefully consider where they host retreats. They highlight: why boutique hotels can be a great starting point why specialized retreat venues may offer stronger alignment why platforms like Airbnb or VRBO often create legal and insurance challenges for retreats About Emily Johnson Emily Johnson is the founder of Elevate Hospitality Collective, a consultancy that helps boutique hotels and retreat centers attract wellness travelers and retreat leaders.

Decades ago, Colorado lawmakers set statewide limits on noise for different types of areas — lower limits near homes, louder away from them. But a recent court case has upended the status quo around which venues are allowed to be extra loud and how much say local governments have, and that has state lawmakers this year stirring up a noisy debate over noise.CPR's Bente Birkeland and Dan Boyce delve into the complexity of noise and how people experience it, the debate over state limits versus local control, and why the Ford Amphitheater in Colorado Springs is at the center of this debate.Catch up on our coverage: CPR News: Local noise permit bill passes Senate after contentious committee hearing KRCC: Statehouse proposal would allow cities to issue noise permits for properties like the Ford Amphitheater in Colorado Springs KRCC: Ford Amphitheater opponents hope Colorado Supreme Court ruling will bring the noise down KRCC: Colorado Springs mayor, city staff will meet with operators of Ford Amphitheater after widespread noise complaints And check out two past Purplish topics that are back in the news: Colorado banned conversion therapy for minors.
