2026-06-22 Update From Anne: This conversation with Hunter Peterson was recorded before the bankruptcy court bidding process discussed in the interview had concluded. Since then, plans have changed -  Hunter and his team are now focused on building a brand-new airline rather than acquiring an existing one.   One thing I've learned from talking with entrepreneurs over the years is that the path to success is rarely a straight line. Sometimes the most exciting opportunities come from adapting, pivoting, and embracing a new vision. I'm so excited to see where this next chapter takes him, and I'm super grateful he shared his journey with us. I'm looking forward to welcoming him back to the podcast and hearing how things progress. Enjoy the episode!   From the VO booth to billions of impressions! In this extraordinary episode of the VO Boss Podcast, Anne Ganguzza sits down with voice actor, content producer, and creative entrepreneur Hunter Peterson. Hunter breaks down his viral movement, Spirit 2.0 (Let's Buy Spirit), which has captured 19.5 billion impressions and evolved into a legitimate corporate contender in bankruptcy court.   Discover how Hunter applied the core mechanics of voice acting, content strategy, and digital storytelling to mobilize an army of investors. He shares the raw, chaotic realities of real-time entrepreneurial pivots, navigating intense SEC regulations, overcoming massive public missteps, and why human accountability is the ultimate secret weapon to beating traditional private equity.   What you'll learn in this episode: The precise viral content math Hunter used to test his record-breaking videos. Why Hunter went from hating Spirit Airlines to leading a movement to buy it. The chilling complexities of purchasing an Airline Operating Certificate (AOC) out of bankruptcy. Why you don't need a flawless plan to launch a successful business.  

Hey there, hero!I was just on a call with a potential VO client, and the conversation got around to limiting beliefs in general, and in particular, those excuses we come up with so we don't have to try.This is nothing new. People have been afraid of failure since humans became humans.We look at the potential for failure, and then spend a lot of time creating a story or seven around why we can just take a nap instead.It's risky to try something new.So what stories are you telling yourself so you don't even need to try something new? So you don't have to even come close to risking failure?

Slovensko sa tejto vlády musí zbaviť čo najskôr. Vedenie SMERu zrástlo s oligarchiou a vstúpil do toho i Robert Fico. Premiéra pravidlá demokracie vyrušujú, ministri sú údržbári a budúcnosť štátu je im úplne ukradnutá. Takto to hodnotí po 20. rokoch od prvého vládnutia SMERU jeden zo zakladateľov Boris Zala. Ako sa z tejto “tretej cesty” stal stroj obsluhujúci záujmy vlastných ľudí či oligarchie?Práve pred 20 rokmi po prvá raz zasadol do premiérskeho kresla Robert Fico. Z kedysi ambiciózneho politika tzv. Tretej cesty sa však postupom času stal unavený patrón klientelistického štátu no a Slovensko sa pod jeho vedením mení na čoraz viac sa rozpadajúci Potemkin. Ako sa zo strany protestu voči Mečiarovi i Dzurindovi stal už len unavený stroj obsluhujúci výlučne záujmy “našich ľudí,” ktorý úplne rezignoval na moderný sociálny štát? A je Robert Fico dnes už iba bábkou v rukách oligarchie a straníckej partokracie? Vo veľmi otvorenom rozhovore pre Ráno Nahlas na to odpovie jeden zo zakladateľov SMERu a bývalý predseda Sociálnych demokratov Boris Zala.V týchto dňoch, práve pred dvadsiatimi rokmi po prvý raz triumfoval Smer vo voľbách a jeho predseda Robert Fico po prvý raz zasadol do kresla premiéra. Vtedy ešte s víziou modernej tretej cesty, kde novopečený premiér deklaroval ambíciu vytvoriť zo Slovenska silný sociálny štát, ktorý bude garantovať dôstojný život pre každého občana.Dnes však médiá - namiesto dôstojnosti nás všetkých, riešia dôstojnosť života príbuzných či blízkych Roberta Fica - ako i ďalších vplyvných straníkov, pričom na Slovensku žije podľa oficiálnych štatistík takmer milión ľudí pod hranicou príjmovej chudoby a sociálnej vylúčenosti.Po dvoch dekádach jeho takmer nepretržitého vládnutia sa tak pôvodný sen o slovenskej sociálnej demokracii rozplynul v realite nacionálneho populizmu, systémového klientelizmu ako i čoraz viac upadajúceho štátu. Dve desaťročia dominancie jednej strany zanechali na Slovensku hlbokú stopu, no namiesto skutočného sociálneho štátu dnes čelíme rekordnému zadlžovaniu, sociálne necitlivej konsolidácií a prejedaniu vlastnej budúcnosti. Vládna moc si cez plošné rozdávačské balíčky už celé roky opakovane kupuje voličské hlasy, zatiaľ čo kľúčové systémy štátu ako zdravotníctvo či školstvo zlyhávajú a pomoc ľudia namiesto štátu hľadajú v internetovej charite.Od “SMERom k ľuďom,” ako znelo prvé predvolebné heslo Smeru sa tak táto strana prepracovala k realite smerovania k "našim ľuďom". Hanákove Papierové hlavy sa vrátili.Je toto ešte stále autentická ľavica, alebo sa slovami Roberta Kaliňáka “transformovala” do sofistikovaného klientského štátu, ktorý namiesto pravidiel a výkonu odmieňa slepú stranícku lojalitu? Kam sa za tých 20 rokov posunul samotný Robert Fico a prečo namiesto moderného európskeho štátu vybudoval systém politických trafík, hľadania nepriateľov, vyvolávania konfliktov a koketovania s extremizmom?Ráno Nahlas s bývalým poslancom, europoslancom a jedným zo zakladateľov SMERu Borisom Zalom. Pekný deň a pokoj v duši praje Braňo Dobšinský.

„Ježiš Nazaretský, kráľ židovský.“ Evanjelium podľa Jána 19:19 Tento nápis umiestnil Pilát na kríži nad Ježiša. Nik nemal pochybovať o tom, kto to je, preto bol nápis v hebrejčine, latinčine a gréčtine. Židia sa snažili tieto slová zmeniť, ale neuspeli. Pilát napísal pravdu bez toho, aby o tom vedel. Ježiš je Kráľom každého jedného človeka. Nie je Kráľom len tých, ktorí si Ho vyberú. Vo večnosti bude znieť toto obvinenie nad mnohými. Odmietol si Toho, ktorý mal byť Kráľom tvojho života. To je ten najväčší hriech, aký môže človek spáchať. Odmietnuť Ježiša znamená odmietnuť Boha. Nik to nemôže urobiť beztrestne. Ľudia, ktorí Ho odmietli, strávia večnosť bez Neho, pod Jeho hnevom a súdom. Ak patríš Ježišovi, uznal si Ho za svojho Kráľa. Je nesprávne myslieť si, že človek má prijať Ježiša ako Spasiteľa a až potom ako Pána. Nie, Ježiš je Kráľom kresťana. Preto priprav Kráľovi miesto. Nepatríš sám sebe, ale svojmu Kráľovi, ktorý žije v tebe. Ak sa spojíš s Ním, tvoj život sa zmení. To On má moc a byť v Jeho službe je požehnaním tvojho života. Učeník zakúsi to, čo jeho pán. Ježiša mnohí potupujú. Každý kresťan to pocíti. Je však cťou mať s Ním na tom podiel. S údivom premýšľaš nad tým, že tvoj Kráľ skončil na kríži. Ježiš sa ponížil a stal sa Služobníkom. Áno, vo svojej smrti sa stal tvojím Zástupcom. Mal by som Ho milovať menej, keď sa tak veľmi ponížil? Nemali by sme Ho namiesto toho oslavovať a vyvyšovať Jeho meno? Robíme to, keď Ho korunujeme za Kráľa svojho života. Musí byť Majstrom. Musí byť Pánom. Budeme Ho nasledovať. Hans Erik Nissen

La VMA est probablement le chiffre qui obsède le plus les coureurs français.Depuis plus de 30 ans, des générations de runners la mesurent, la comparent et cherchent à l'améliorer. Mais au fond, que mesure réellement la VMA ? D'où vient-elle ? Quelle différence avec la VO₂max ? Et surtout, est-elle vraiment le meilleur indicateur de performance ?Dans cet épisode, nous remontons à l'origine de l'une des plus grandes obsessions du running français. Bonne écoute !Hébergé par Audiomeans. Visitez audiomeans.fr/politique-de-confidentialite pour plus d'informations.

30/30, 400 mètres, 1000m, seuil, fartlek...Quand on parle de vitesse, les coureurs cherchent souvent LA séance miracle. Celle qui ferait progresser plus vite que toutes les autres.Mais si la vraie question était ailleurs ?Dans ce deuxième épisode consacré à la VMA et à la vitesse, nous allons voir pourquoi les meilleurs entraîneurs ne raisonnent plus en termes de "meilleure séance", mais en termes d'adaptations physiologiques.Pourquoi certaines séances développent la VO₂max, d'autres le seuil, et d'autres encore l'économie de course ?Le 30/30 mérite-t-il vraiment sa réputation de séance reine du running français ?Et pourquoi les meilleurs athlètes passent-ils aujourd'hui autant de temps à travailler leur capacité à changer de rythme plutôt qu'à courir toujours à la même allure ?Bonne écoute !Lien épisode Méthode Norvégienne : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=os44USwgfts&t=2635s Hébergé par Audiomeans.

Are voice actors now expected to be on call 24/7, travel with gear everywhere they go, and never miss an audition? That's the question audiobook and narration voice actor Amy Tallmadge brought to Marc Scott after hearing some interesting conversations at VO Atlanta - and the answer might give you permission to actually enjoy your next vacation. Marc gives his honest take on whether the industry has genuinely changed its expectations, or whether something else is really driving the always-on mentality that so many voice actors feel. Inside this episode: Whether the 24/7 on-call expectation is a real industry shift or mostly FOMO in disguise Which voiceover genres actually do have higher availability requirements - and why commercial in general is not one of them The grocery store story - how FOMO over missed auditions drove Marc off pay-to-play sites entirely How early delivery built Marc's business fast - and what the old guard had to say about it Whether casting directors really listen to every audition - and what that means for the ones you submit late Marc's practical travel kit setup for when you do want to record on the road Why Amy's return to commercial VO may have fewer barriers than she thinks You get to decide what kind of voice actor career you want to build. This episode is a reminder that the industry isn't taking that choice away from you.

On podnikal s ochrannými pracovnými pomôckami, ona ako exekútorka. Manželia Demešovci mali úspešne rozbehnuté samostatné podnikateľské projekty, no na polceste medzi štyridsiatkou a päťdesiatkou sa rozhodli zmeniť smer a začať podnikať v novom odvetví – spolu. Vo vinárstve TAJNA v blízkosti Vrábľov – v obci Tajná, má Rastislav Demeš na starosti produkciu vína a Anetta Demešová sa zameriava na marketing či eventy.  „Predala som agendu spisov a mala som prostriedky, ktoré sme vedeli investovať. Toto bolo jedno z riešení,“ hovorí Anetta Demešová s tým, že chcela skúsiť niečo pokojnejšie, bola zameraná na istotu. „Ale v tomto projekte sa to nepotvrdilo,“ dodáva so smiechom. „Mali sme viac nadšenia ako rozumu. O víne sme mali hobby vedomosti,“ vraví Rastislav Demeš. To, že neboli vždy vinármi, považuje však Rastislav za výhodu: „Nie sme zarytí, konzervatívni vinári, firma stále rastie, aj keď sme prežili ťažké obdobia, lebo sme vždy vedeli s otvorenými hlavami poskytnúť doplnkový produkt či službu.“ Okrem vína – ktoré ponúkajú aj michelinské podniky – vyrábajú aj bylinné čaje či usporadúvajú eventy. To im pomohlo prekonať aj náročné obdobie v roku 2023, keď prišli o 70 percent úrody.  V tejto sfére podnikania sú zasiahnutí klimatickou krízou viac ako iní, príroda im prácu komplikuje, no nechcú s ňou bojovať chemikáliami, ktoré sa za bežných okolností nevyskytujú v prírode a ich víno je pestované ekologicky. „Je to ako rozdiel medzi zdravým životným štýlom a prirodzeným budovaním imunity a braním antibiotík, až keď je niekto chorý,“ vysvetľuje Rastislav.  „Pokiaľ si firma len trošku vie dovoliť sociálny rozmer alebo starať sa o ekológiu, patrí to k podnikaniu,“ hovorí Anetta. S prácou im pomáhajú aj ľudia z ich dcérskeho sociálneho podniku, aj keď Anetta dodáva, že byrokracia im ich zamestnávanie neuľahčuje. Ako podnikanie ovplyvnilo ich manželstvo, v čom to bolo náročné a v čom im naopak pomohlo? Aká je firemná kultúra rodinného vinárstva? V čom je špecifické podnikanie v oblasti, kde je paňou príroda? A ako sa správne otvára víno, ak to nie je „panáčikom“ ani „téčkom“?  V predposlednej epizóde ôsmej série podcastu Prečo práve oni? sa Adela Vinczeová pýta Anetty a Rastislava Demešovcov. Podcast Prečo práve oni? a tento článok vám prináša  spoločnosť EY. Pravidlá spolupráce medzi inzerentmi a redakciou si môžete pozrieť v  tomto odkaze.

Episode Chapter Summaries Chapter 1: The Cosmic Zipper — From Silicon Valley to Telltale Games (00:01 – 04:13) Anne introduces BAFTA award-winning actor Cissy Jones, listing her massive credits across the video game landscape. Cissy shares her unique origin story, starting not in theater, but in the fast-paced venture capital world of Silicon Valley. Despite an early childhood calling to act, she followed corporate expectations until a profound sense of unhappiness led her to a voiceover school. Cissy introduces her concept of the "cosmic zipper"—that beautiful alignment where life clicks together once you finally uncover your true purpose. Within two years of rigorous study, she booked her first massive multi-character rolepacket as Katya in Telltale Games' The Walking Dead. Chapter 2: The Ultimate Boss Move & The Impact of the Mic (04:14 – 07:47) Anne pauses to highlight an incredible tactical move from Cissy's early days: learning how to engineer audioaudio engineer sessions when she couldn't afford a class ticket, allowing her to stay in the casting room and absorb director feedback through osmosis. Cissy highlights her deep appreciation for characters like Lilith in Disney's The Owl House. She recounts emotional fan interactions at Comic-Cons, where parents and children shared how her character's arc helped them process their own queer or neurodivergent identities, reinforcing the true purpose of human storytelling. Chapter 3: Mastering Storytelling & Leaning Into Vulnerability (07:48 – 11:44) Anne asks Cissy what internal mechanics make a voice actor a master storyteller. Cissy credits her willingness to tap deeply into intense, unshielded human emotion on demand. She offers a crucial piece of advice for talent exploring the character and interactive space: when a script calls for real, raw emotion, do not paint over it with cartoony comedy. Voice actors must lean courageously into authentic psychological vulnerability while carefully managing their own mental well-being when a heavy scene leaves them emotionally drained. Chapter 4: The 3-Second Threat & The AI Wake-Up Call (11:45 – 17:31) The conversation turns to advocacy as Cissy recounts a terrifying experience during the 2021 COVID lockdown. Fans alerted her to AI voice clone platforms generating pornographic content using her vocal likeness from The Owl House. When she demanded a takedown, the platforms refused, citing a complete lack of protective voice laws. Cissy breaks down a jarring technological reality: in 2021, creating a believable vocal clone required roughly 10 hours of studio audio; today, it takes just 3 seconds. She highlights why NAVA is actively working with legislators to target security loopholes, citing an experiment where NAVA co-founder Karin Gilfrey successfully bypassed her personal bank security using an AI clone of her own voice. Chapter 5: Ethovox — Creating a Safe Haven Under Lock and Key (17:32 – 24:03) Drawing on her technical venture capital background, Cissy shares why she refused to sit idly by and instead launched her own ethical AI startup called Ethovox. Unlike predatory public marketplaces that ingest and trade off voice talent data, Ethovox operates as a highly secure, private repository. The company explicitly mandates full actor consent, works hand-in-hand with talent agencies to negotiate fair rates, and refuses to sell baseline training data. Cissy reveals a massive boss move: walking away from a lucrative seven-figure institutional funding offer because the investors admitted they did not care if voice actors survived. Chapter 6: The Fight in D.C. & How the VO Community Can Help (24:04 – End) Cissy praises NAVA's leadership—specifically Tim Friedlander, CKarin Gilfrey, and Matthew Parham—for their relentless, bipartisan legislative efforts in Washington, D.C., to pass protections such aspushes in Washington, D.C. to pass protections like the federal No Fakes Act. She stresses that while Washington politicians may not inherently care about actors, they care deeply about cybersecurity risks and digital identity theft affecting their voters. The episode wraps with an urgent call to action for the VO community to support NAVA through membership dues, alongside an invitation to participate in NAVA's annual Day of Play charity streaming event. Top 10 Boss Takeaways Watch for the "Cosmic Zipper": If you are forcing a career path and constantly meeting friction and exhaustion, step back. When you strike the path you were truly meant to walk, the doors lock into place effortlessly. Immerse yourself through service: If you cannot afford premium training starting out, find alternative ways to be in the room. Learn to engineer, edit, or assist so you can witness directing choices and build organic network connections. Storytelling demands real human impact: Vocal mechanics mean absolutely nothing if your performance isn't reaching past the microphone to touch, change, or validate the human experience of the listener. Don't hide behind a cartoon read: When a script asks for deep psychological weight or heavy sorrow, do not soften the blow with safe, performative humor. Stand confidently in your vulnerability. Acknowledge the 3-second reality: Vocal cloning technology requires as little as 3 seconds of pristine audio—meaning your outgoing cell phone voicemail clip is enough to compromise security systems or clone your identity. AI needs ethical boundaries: Innovation cannot be stopped, but it must be met with the three foundational pillars of advocacy: absolute Consent, fair Compensation, and structural Control over personal vocal assets. Protect your core data: Avoid voice AI platforms that treat your unique biological voiceprint as disposable ammunition to train broader, open-source language models. Reputation over revenue: True leaders know when to walk away. Cissy's rejection of a massive seven-figure check because investors devalued human talent is the ultimate blueprint for protecting your personal integrity over a quick paycheck. Bipartisan framing is key in advocacy: When pushing for systemic change or workplace protections, leave personal political ideologies outside the room. Speak directly to staffers about the universal dangers of digital kidnapping, fraud, and corporate IP theft. A rising tide lifts all boats: Success in this industry is never a zero-sum game. There is plenty of room for creative minds to flourish. Lift your peers up, guard each other's rights, and protect the human element.

⚠️ DISCLAIMER: THIS IS NOT HEALTH OR MEDICAL ADVICE. The views and experiences shared in this episode are for educational and informational purposes only. Always consult your healthcare practitioner before making any health-related decisions. In this episode of Health Confidential, host Simone Gisondi sits down with MJ Renshaw, founder of The Being Method, somatic breathwork educator, bestselling author, and mentor, to explore how breath can become one of the most powerful tools for healing, transformation, and self-discovery.Drawing from her background in philosophy, osteopathy, and breathwork, MJ shares her deeply personal journey through loss, trauma, emotional suppression, and chronic stress, and how discovering breathwork transformed her relationship with her body, mind, and spirit. Together, Simone and MJ discuss the profound connection between breathing patterns, nervous system regulation, emotional wellbeing, and overall health.The conversation explores how common habits such as mouth breathing and chronic hyperventilation may contribute to stress, anxiety, and illness, while also examining emerging research on breath, mitochondrial health, trauma, and longevity. Blending science with spirituality, MJ explains how conscious breathing can help release stored emotional pain, reconnect individuals with their intuition, and support deep personal healing. This inspiring discussion offers a fresh perspective on how something as simple and accessible as the breath can become a gateway to lasting transformation.KEY TAKEAWAYSMost people breathe inefficiently, often through chronic hyperventilation or mouth breathing, which may contribute to ongoing stress and nervous system dysregulation.Breathing patterns and VO₂ max are among the strongest indicators of long-term health and longevity, yet are often overlooked in conventional healthcare.Trauma may be carried not only emotionally but also within the body, and breathwork can support the release of stored stress and unresolved emotional experiences.Breathwork serves as a bridge between science and spirituality, offering practical tools for both physiological regulation and personal growth.Healing often involves emotional release, and conscious breathing can help people reconnect with themselves, access deeper awareness, and create meaningful change in their lives.BEST MOMENTS"I just became really interested in making my pain my mission.""It's not just you thinking about someone bullying you one time… at the cellular level, we can hold trauma.""There isn't a person out there who cannot be helped with breathwork.""You can read about it all you want, but you're not going to get good at it until you actually do it.""This is not just going to change your physiology and change your lineage, but it's also going to change your personality."GUEST INFORMATIONMJ Renshaw is the founder of The Being Method, a somatic breathwork educator, bestselling author, and mentor whose work bridges science and spirituality. Drawing from her backgrounds in philosophy, osteopathy, and breathwork, she helps people regulate their nervous systems, release emotional patterns, and reconnect with themselves through embodied healing.

Masívne tunelovanie bánk či divoká Mečiarovská privatizácia. A najmä, absencia práva. I tak vyzerali 90. roky na Slovensku. To boli detské roky kapitalizmu. To, čo tu dialo, sa dialo všade vo svete - neraz v oveľa horšej podobe, tvrdí Igor Rattaj. Museli sme si tým prejsť, dodáva. Prečo je vládna Zonácia Tatier podľa neho prospešná a v čom Slovensko trápi závisť? Odpovie šéf TMR Igor Rattaj.Zonácia Tatier je dobrým kompromisom medzi cestovným ruchom a ochranou prírody. Predaj do Číny je haluz. TMR sa nič predávať nechystá, tvrdí v Ráno Nahlas šéf Tatry mountain resorts Igor Rattaj. Podľa neho je našim kľúčovým problémom Závisť. Voči úspešným a bohatým a i preto sme sa ocitli v slepej uličke. S tými starými to už nepostavime nikam. To bude len boj o voliča-dôchodcu - a skanzen. Problém bude, keď nám budú mladí ľudia odchádzať do zahraničia. Závisť je najmä u starších, mladí ju takmer necítia, tvrdí šéf TMR.Dlho očakávaná zonácia Tatier opäť narazila, tentoraz nohu do dverí vložila koaličná SNS. Tá obvinila vlastného ministra zo svojvôle a presadzovaniu záujmov oligarchov, ktorí by mohli mať zo schválenej podoby zonácie majetkový či podnikateľský prospech.Faktom je, že spor o budúcu podobu Tatier naplno obnažil zásadný konflikt medzi ochranou prírody a národného dedičstva na strane jednej a masovým turizmom a developerským biznisom na strane druhej.Proces je pritom sprevádzaný množstvom netransparentnosti a naráža i na masívnu kritiku mnohých vedcov, ochranárov, ale aj miestnych obyvateľov.Kto bude napokon zo schválených pravidiel profitovať a podarí sa udržať pri živote náš národné prírodný klenot ako aj jeho vzácne biotopy? Alebo naopak, otvoria sa dvere ďalším zjazdovkám, masívnemu umelému zasnežovaniu a presadzovania záujmov developerov? Kde presne končí legitímny zisk a kde začína skutočná zodpovednosti voči národnému dedičstvu?Ako to vidí jeden z kľúčových tatranských developerov, ktorí pred rokmi chcel Rakušanov učiť ako sa robí turistický biznis?No a o čom boli divoké 90. roky plné skrachovaných podnikateľských plánov postavených na vode, vytunelovaných fondov i bánk, hladových dolín, v ktorých prácu strácali celé generácie, ale aj úplnej straty vlády práva, absentujúcich zákonov a rozrastajúcej sa moci mafie prerastenej so štátom?V Ráne Nahlas na to odpovie šéf TMR - teda Tatry Mountain Resorts, Igor Rattaj. Pekný deň a pokoj v duši praje Braňo Dobšinský.

What happens when you study people who have spent decades consistently running marathons?In this episode, we sit down with researcher and multi marathoner Leo Lundy to explore what endurance athletes can teach us about healthy aging, longevity, and lifelong performance.Drawing from his PhD research on multi marathoners around the world, Leo shares insights into cardiovascular fitness, VO₂ max, all cause mortality, cognitive performance, mental health, and the long term effects of sustained endurance training.The conversation examines why regular physical activity may help slow age-related decline, how motivation evolves across the lifespan, and what separates successful aging from simply getting older. Leo also discusses important vulnerabilities within endurance communities, including injury risk, painkiller use, mental health challenges, and the importance of ongoing health screening.Whether you're an athlete, coach, practitioner, or simply interested in extending your healthspan, this episode offers a fascinating look at what decades of consistent movement can teach us about living and aging well. Interested in learning more from leading experts in endurance performance and healthy aging?

Športový fanúšik vidí na obrazovke predovšetkým výkony hráčov, no za každým veľkým prenosom sa skrýva obrovský boj o vysielacie práva, tvrdé vyjednávania a miliónové investície. O to viac fascinuje pohľad do zákulisia televízneho biznisu, ktorý určuje, čo a kde budeme v nasledujúcich rokoch sledovať. Do najnovšej epizódy podcastu Striedame! prijal pozvanie šéf televízie JOJ Šport Roman Neuschl.V otvorenom a mimoriadne pútavom rozhovore s moderátormi Julom a Muťom poodhalil fungovanie trhu so športovými právami, pozadie získania historickej licencie na futbalové MS, ale aj dlhodobú stratégiu a budovanie športovej televízie od samotných základov.Získať vysielacie práva na najsledovanejší športový turnaj planéty nie je vôbec jednoduché a predchádzajú tomu mimoriadne náročné tendre. Roman Neuschl v diskusii neskrýval, že moderný televízny trh sa po pandémii zásadne zmenil a s ním aj prístup k nákupu prémiového obsahu. Sledovanie zápasov sa pre neho samotného už dávno spája s hlbšou analýzou, nielen s čistou fanúšikovskou vášňou.„Odkedy riadim JOJ Šport, tak hovorím, že nechodím sa pozerať na šport, ale chodím ho vnímať, aby som vedel, čo sa deje. Veľa športových prenosov pozerám tak, že mám otvorený Excel,“ opísal s úsmevom svoj pohľad na vec.Zároveň veľmi detailne zhodnotil obrovský logistický aj finančný skok, ktorý so sebou prinášajú tohtoročné majstrovstvá sveta v zámorí. Turnaj s rozšíreným počtom tímov a masívnou porciou 104 zápasov v rôznych časových pásmach je pre televíziu extrémnou výzvou. Preto prišlo k logickému kroku a strategickému spojeniu s verejnoprávnym vysielateľom, vďaka čomu slovenský divák nepríde o jediný duel.Vo podcaste nechýbalo ani rozprávanie o tom, prečo do podobných projektov nevstupujú len z krátkodobého hľadiska, ale s víziou presahujúcou aktuálne desaťročie. Televízia cielene získava práva na mládežnícke kategórie a menšie podujatia, aby postupne pomáhala vychovávať novú generáciu športovcov, ktorí by o pár rokov mohli žiariť na svetovej scéne.„Pokiaľ by sme to dnes robili tak, ako sa to robievalo v minulosti, že si kúpime iba to, kde sú Slováci, na tom vyťažíme ‚ryžu' a potom nám je jedno, ako to bude fungovať ďalej, tak by sme sa dostali do toho, že vytvoríme ďalšiu dieru,“ zhrnul šéf JOJ Športu ústrednú filozofiu ich dlhodobého televízneho projektu.Reč prišla aj na konkrétne tváre, ktoré budú počas turnaja dotvárať televízny zážitok v pozícii expertov. Šéf športovej stanice prezradil, že do štúdií si sadnú zvučné mená ako Marek Hamšík, Martin Škrtel či Juraj Kucka. Cieľom je priniesť divákom odborné postrehy priamo zvnútra kabíny a od ľudí, ktorí sú s moderným futbalom neustále v úzkom a každodennom kontakte.Roman Neuschl v najnovšej epizóde podcastu Striedame! na ŠPORT.sk odpovedal aj na to, ako veľmi by pomohlo, keby na turnaj postúpila slovenská reprezentácia, prečo by sa podľa neho mohlo zrodiť na aktuálnych MS množstvo nečakaných prekvapení a prečo si pri spomienke na majstrovstvá sveta aj tí najväčší televízni profíci takmer ihneď spomenú na speváčku Shakiru.

Did you know that roughly 50% of consumers are now using AI-powered search? And that number is only going up? In this Summer Series episode of the VOpreneur Podcast, voice actor Cody Rock asks the question that every voice actor with a website needs to hear right now: what is the difference between SEO and GEO, and how can voice actors use both to get in front of more buyers? Marc Scott breaks down the shift from search engine optimization to generative engine optimization - what it means, why it matters, and what he's actually doing on his own website right now to take advantage of it. Inside this episode: The key difference between SEO and GEO - and why the shift from keywords to context changes everything about how you build your website Why the top third of every Google search results page is now an AI summary - and what that means for your old SEO strategy How Marc built 50 to 60 new pages on his website using AI - and how Claude Cowork now does it automatically without him ever touching WordPress The "questions your clients ask" strategy - the simplest starting point for any voice actor who wants to show up in AI search Why GEO is a genuine ground-floor opportunity right now - everyone is starting at square one, and the voice actors who move early will have a real advantage How to use AI to analyze your Google Analytics and Search Console data and tell you whether your strategy is actually working Why fresh, contextual content matters more than ever - and what that means for the one-page VO website that most voice actors are still running Whether you're an SEO veteran or you've never thought about search strategy a day in your career, this episode gives you a clear, practical framework for making sure AI recommends you when buyers come looking.

What if there was a way to boost your VO₂ max, improve heat tolerance, and potentially increase endurance without adding a single extra workout to your training week?Most runners are always looking for the next thing that will help them run faster, recover better, and stay healthier for the long haul. In this episode, I break down one of the most overlooked performance tools available: sauna training. You'll learn how heat exposure can improve endurance, boost key physiological adaptations, and help your body handle hard efforts more efficiently. I also share a simple protocol to get started, common mistakes runners make, and why the benefits may extend far beyond race day and into long-term health and longevity.Key TakeawaysSauna training may help improve endurance and running performance by creating adaptations similar to altitude training, without changing where you live or train.Consistency matters more than suffering. Starting with short sessions and gradually building up is the safest and most effective way to get the benefits.Sauna is one of the few tools that may improve both athletic performance and long-term health, making it a valuable addition to your training routine.Timestamps[00:27] What You'll Learn[01:18] How Sauna Actually Makes You a Faster Runner[02:00] What's Happening Inside Your Body[03:08] Use This Cheat Sheet to Start Sauna and Get 17% Faster on Race Day[03:45] My Science-Backed Sauna Post-Run Protocol[05:42] Three Things to Remember Before You Sauna[07:47] What to Do in the Sauna?[08:20] Infrared vs Steam vs Finnish Dry Sauna[09:38] Steam Saunas[10:24] No Sauna?

Why does Product Marketing look so different in Europe, and why copying US playbooks often leads to the wrong outcomes?In this episode, I sit down with Rory, Product Marketing Director consultant, with 13+ years of experience in PMM, across top tech companies such as Google, YouTube and Pleo. Europe Isn't Silicon Valley: Together, we unpack what truly shapes Product Marketing in Europe today, and why this context is driving the rise of fractional PMM roles.In this conversation, you'll learn:

This week, Brent and Dennis are just asking questions. Questions such as: Do VU meters really make everything sound better? (Obviously, yes.) Can you do science if you don't even understand science? (Probably not on purpose!) If our music is going to be made by taste-making hacks using AI, does hi-fi even matter anymore? (Nerd fight!)

There is nothing we love more than a good listener question episode. It is the absolute best way for my Business Superpowers co-host, Lau Lapides, and me to connect directly with you bosses and dig into what you are actually experiencing in your daily business. Recently, we combed through a handful of listener questions, and one from a listener named Ben immediately stopped us in our tracks: "What are voice actors wasting the most time on right now?" Oh boy. Get comfortable, because Lau and I did not hold back. From the black hole of digital over-exposure to the exact mechanics of a genuine read, we broke down what you need to stop doing—and what you need to start focusing on—to take your business to the next level. Episode Chapter Summaries Chapter 1: The Trap of Self-Sabotage and Analysis Paralysis (00:01 – 04:10) Anne kicks off the listener Q&A with Ben's question about where voice talent waste the most time. Lau immediately calls out the silent killer of VO careers: intentional or unintentional self-sabotage. She describes how talent waste massive amounts of mental energy second-guessing auditions, wondering why they didn't get a booking, and obsessing over whether a client "liked" them. Anne shares how surviving cancer completely transformed her perspective in the booth, freeing her from minor anxieties and giving her permission to just have fun, audition, forget it, and move on. Chapter 2: Fantasizing vs. Actively Doing the Hard Work (04:11 – 07:53) Anne and Lau shift the spotlight to a different kind of time-wasting: thinking about the work instead of actually doing the work. They discuss talent who get trapped "fantasizing" about the perfect gig or complaining that they "just need to market more" without sending a single email. Lau warns that a wild creative imagination is a gift for acting, but a massive liability when it comes to the logical, disciplined day-to-day realities of running a small business, tracking invoices, and practicing script homework. Chapter 3: Digital Exposure, Brain Overload, and the Power of the "Share" (07:54 – 13:42) Lau introduces the danger of digital over-exposure and "dopamine addiction" online. Anne admits to the ongoing battle of keeping too many browser tabs open (shoutout to all the fashion buffs out there!), and Lau explains how overdosing on digital stimuli—even high-intensity entertainment like horror movies or daytime dramas—can alter your brain waves and derail your focus. To combat isolation and comparisonitis, they recommend building a tight-knit inner circle of colleagues to break your mental bubbles and celebrate wins constructively. Chapter 4: The Myth of the "Easy" Read and the Olympian Metaphor (13:43 – 16:44) The hosts tackle the frustrating reality that both new talent and bad clients minimize the value of voice acting because "it looks easy." Anne uses a great metaphor involving the Southern California lottery for Olympic tickets: elite gymnasts and swimmers make their movements look completely effortless, yet no one assumes they can jump onto a balance beam and replicate it. Professional voice acting requires the exact same unseen, high-level athletic discipline. Chapter 5: Gravitas, Empathy, and Decoupling the "Low Voice" (16:45 – 19:14) Anne raises another major listener question: What does authenticity actually sound like, and how does it relate to the industry's current obsession with "authority"? Lau notes that breakdown specs are constantly demanding "gravitas" and "assertiveness," especially for women. However, they debunk the myth that gravitas requires an artificially low pitch. True authority comes from a deep frame of reference and understanding your target market's specific culture—whether you are a 48-year-old corporate narrator or an 8-year-old expert talking about Pokémon. Chapter 6: The "physicating" Framework and Keeping Auditions Raw (19:15 – End) Anne breaks down the exact training method she teaches in her precision narration classes: acting is never a primary action; it is always an empathetic reaction to a problem. She shares her famous "Jersey Girl" driving example to outline her step-by-step performance framework: Breathe, Focus, Physicalize (or "Physicate"), and Speak. Lau and Anne close the show by urging talent to stop editing out the raw, human elements of their commercial and animation auditions, opting for a bit of authentic grit over artificial perfection. Top 10 Boss Takeaways Ditch the audition autopsy: Wondering why you didn't book a gig is a form of procrastination. Fire off the audition, forget it completely, and redirect that energy into your next project. Analysis leads to paralysis: Second-guessing the client's internal thoughts stops your creative momentum. Give yourself permission to fail forward. Discipline your imagination: Your creative brain is a beautiful tool for script interpretation, but keep it out of your business operations. Run your invoices, tech updates, and marketing with cold, hard logic. Guard your digital environment: Overdosing on social media scrolling and endless digital tabs alters your focus. Protect your mental health by setting strict boundaries on your screen time. Break the isolation bubble: When you find yourself trapped in a negative mental rerun, pick up the phone or hop on a call with a trusted business peer who can ground you back in reality. Immunity over insecurity: Stop letting other people's online wins trigger your insecurities. Use your community's success stories as a roadmap to learn what is currently working in the marketplace. Effortless execution takes years: If your delivery sounds like "just reading," you are doing it right. Treat the illusion of simplicity as a professional compliment, but never let a client use it to devalue your rates. Gravitas isn't a vocal register: True authority and credibility have absolutely nothing to do with how low your voice can go. True gravitas is rooted in confidence, presence, and direct connection. Master the art of "Physicating": Before you speak a single word of a script, run through Anne's four pillars: Breathe naturally, Focus on the unwritten moment before, Physicalize the reaction with your body, and then Speak. Keep it a little dirty: Stop turning in overly polished, perfectly scrubbed, sterile audio files for commercial and animation auditions. Leave the natural breaths and human imperfections in the track—casting directors want a real human being, not an algorithm.

Regarder en version originale est presque devenu un marqueur culturel, comme si choisir la VF était une honte. Pourtant, selon une étude Ifop publiée en avril 2025, 74 % des Français préfèrent encore regarder films et séries en version doublée. Et même chez les 18-34 ans, réputés plus ouverts à la VO, plus d'un sur deux reste fidèle à la VF. Les français sont-ils majoritaires à regarder les films en VF ? Pourquoi y'a-t-il cet attachement si profond ? Sommes nous les seuls à doubler nos films ? La VF trahit-elle l'œuvre originale ? Écoutez la suite de cet épisode de "Maintenant, vous savez".

Slovensko je druhé najhoršie v EÚ z hľadiska podielu elektromobilov na nových registráciách. Je to výsledok štátnej politiky, ekonomickej situácie aj celkového nastavenia spoločnosti. „Prechod od spaľovacích motorov k elektromobilom musí byť výsledkom dlhodobého vývoja trhu. Náš zákazník je stále pomerne konzervatívny,“ hovorí Juraj Krajcár, člen predstavenstva spoločnosti Západoslovenská energetika v brandovanom rozhovore, ktorý vznikol v spolupráci so ZSE Drive. Postupne sa však akceptácia elektromobilov na Slovensku začína meniť. Výrazným impulzom bol nárast cien energií po roku 2022. To robí elektromobilitu atraktívnejšou aj pre slovenských zákazníkov. „Vidíme to najmä na firemných flotilách. Záujem o elektromobily kulminuje práve v týchto mesiacoch a riešenia pre firemných zákazníkov tvoria najväčšiu časť toho, čím sa aktuálne zaoberáme,“ hovorí J. Krajcár. Firmy prechádzajú na elektromobily z racionálnych dôvodov. Chcú si zabezpečiť optimálne prevádzkové náklady po tom, ako narástli ceny pohonných hmôt. Je to významný faktor najmä pre firmy podnikajúce v doprave. „V poslednom kvartáli narástol záujem firiem o elektromobilitu v trojciferných číslach,“ dodáva člen predstavenstva ZSE. Tomu zodpovedá aj budovanie nabíjacej siete. V lete by mal byť dokončený ucelený koridor z Bratislavy do Košíc, čo umožní nabiť elektromobil najmenej každých 30 kilometrov. Zároveň nové technológie umožňujú skracovať dobu nabíjania. „Vo verejnej nabíjacej sieti dnes vieme poskytnúť výkon 400 kW, ale vo svete sú technológie, ktoré dávajú výkon až 1500 kW,“ hovorí J. Krajcár. To reálne vyrovnáva čas nabíjania elektromobilu s časom tankovania klasického auta. Takáto technológia príde aj na Slovensko. „V pilotnej prevádzke to budeme testovať čoskoro. Finálne nasadenie však bude závisieť od komerčných podmienok na trhu,“ dodáva člen predstavenstva ZSE. V rozhovore sa ešte dozviete: prečo je na Slovensku málo elektromobilov, aký význam má elektromobilita pre firmy, ako sa vyvíja sieť nabíjacích staníc, ako vyzerá elektromobil ako energetický prvok.

In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with Dr. Nathan Jenkins to discuss how to improve performance, body composition, and long-term health through the lens of aerobic development and metabolic flexibility. Nathan shares his journey from exercise physiology and coaching CrossFit athletes to his new role teaching physiology at the University of Georgia School of Medicine. We discuss why metabolic flexibility is such a powerful framework for understanding everything from biochemistry and exercise performance to metabolic disease. We also dive into interpreting maximal exercise testing data, including VO₂ measurements, EKG analysis, and near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS), along with how different energy systems work together during training and competition. Nathan explains why building an aerobic base is critical for repeated high-intensity performance, how pacing impacts outcomes, and why the ability to "suffer" is actually a trainable skill. To wrap up, we cover practical strategies you can apply right away, including prioritizing protein and carbohydrates, improving sleep quality, and addressing common micronutrient deficiencies through blood work, such as magnesium, vitamin D, and omega-3 status.

In this episode, I sit down with Grant to share what I've learned over nearly two decades of coaching and racing in both pool and open water environments, including qualifying for Open Water Nationals as an adult. We explore the gap between pool-perfect technique and what actually works in real race conditions like chop, fatigue, and contact. I break down why swimmers often struggle when they try to carry over overly rigid pool habits into open water, and how that leads to overthinking and breakdown under pressure. We also get into how I now approach stroke rate, breathing, sighting, and recovery in a more adaptable way, depending on conditions. A key theme is simplicity, learning to stay relaxed, trust feel, and avoid constantly chasing technical changes. We also cover what truly transfers from pool to open water, and why consistency and mindset matter more than constant technique overhauls.Timestamps 03:51 – Why pool technique doesn't always translate to open water 07:40 – Stroke rate, sighting, breathing patterns, and adapting to rough conditions 12:19 – Common mistakes swimmers make with technique and body awareness 16:55 – How Brenton simplifies coaching and decides what not to change 21:49 – Why some swimmers improve long term while others stay stuck 28:29 – Overthinking technique and finding the "feel" for swimming 32:40 – Qualifying for Open Water Nationals and improving later in life 37:20 – Strength, mobility, VO₂ sets, and training after 40 41:50 – Drafting tactics, "effortless swimming," favorite swim sets, and final advice

1. Sucho mení Zemplín na step. Farmári hovoria o najhoršej sezóne za desaťročia 2. Tender za 1,5 miliardy na D1 sa znova komplikuje, ÚVO kritizuje diskriminačné podmienky 3. Únia konečne finišuje s obchodnou dohodou s USA 4. Vláda po dlhšom čase poskytla väčšiu daňovú úľavu pre zahraničného investora a „zohľadní“ aj ústretovosť Slovnaftu

Vo videorozhovore s Miriam Šramovou sa dozviete: – koľko má dohôd na štátnych úradoch;– za akú prácu jej všetci platíme z verejných zdrojov;– koľko jej štát platí;– ktorí politici a strany jej platili za čo konkrétne;– že sa považuje za PR profesionálku, nie novinárku;– či jej nenapadli otázky o konflikte záujmov;– prečo sa na ňu nevzťahujú etické pravidlá;– ako sa môže cítiť nezávislá, keď robí rozhovor s ministrom, ktorý jej podpisuje odmeny;– prečo svojim divákom nepovedala, že ju platia politici;– či je pravda, že kedysi pracovala pre americkú ambasádu a podporovala Zuzanu Čaputovú;– kde sa to zlomilo;– čo sa jej páči na Robertovi Ficovi a či je provládna z presvedčenia;– či by pracovala aj pre ministra z PS alebo Igora Matoviča.

We're on Patreon! Find us at https://www.patreon.com/AudioUnleashed This week, Brent and Dennis kick things off by considering whether lack of cred is as big a problem with audio critics as it is for music critics, and debate whether or not Billy Joel is one of our greatest songwriters, even though both of them would happily pay to never hear “Uptown Girl” again. Then they dig deep into the latest retro revival sweeping through the speaker industry: field coils. Are electromagnets better for inner detail than permanent magnets? What do they do to microdynamics? We report; you decide. And wrapping up the conversation for most listeners, they riff on the announcements of two radically different personal audio products: a $7500 “quad-brid” IEM from Campfire and an adorable little headphone amp and DAC from Fosi.
