Episode 19 continues our NCAA Tournament styled brackets to determine the greatest rock album of all time. This episode focuses on the second round of the 1970s. Matchups for this episode: (1) David Bowie "The Rise and Fall Of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars" vs. (8) Bruce Springsteen "Born To Run" (2) Led Zeppelin "Led Zeppelin IV" vs. (10) Black Sabbath "Paranoid" (3) Pink Floyd "The Wall" vs. (6) The Who "Who's Next" (4) Fleetwood Mac "Rumours" vs. (5) Joy Division "Unknown Pleasures" Notes/corrections for this episode: We resolved most of the audio issues with the song clips we've been having, except for "Disorder" which is why the beginning of the song wasn't included. Roy Bittan and Max Weinberg both played on Meat Loaf's "Bat Out Of Hell" album. "You Make Loving Fun" was another key Christine McVie song that Scott forgot to mention. The other Pink Floyd albums that could've been included instead of “The Wall” are “The Dark Side Of The Moon” and “Wish You Were Here.” “Planet Caravan" had congas not bongos (and flute as well thereby adding to its uniqueness). Black Sabbath (the album) was another Sabbath album with a cool creepy cover.

Jim Bovard exposes the false claim that Bill Clinton presided over a peaceful administration, pointing out the horrible atrocities of the “humanitarian” intervention in Kosovo. Clinton launched this intervention, says Bovard, as a distraction from his personal scandals, under the dubious guise of saving the ethnic minority Albanians from genocide at the hands of the Serbians. Of course, as with many of America’s wars, this one turned out to be based on lies; ultimately hundreds, if not thousands, of civilians were killed because of U.S. intervention. Scott and Bovard also discuss the U.S. military’s war crimes during the Korean War. Discussed on the show: “Kosovo Indictment Proves Bill Clinton’s Serbian War Atrocities” (The Libertarian Institute) Hillary’s Choice “The Korean War Atrocities No One Wants to Talk About” (The American Conservative) Pentagon Papers Jim Bovard is a columnist for USA Today and the author of Public Policy Hooligan: Rollicking and Wrangling from Helltown to Washington.

Jim Bovard 1:09 Hey, doing good. Scott, thanks for your kind words. Thanks for your encouragement to write that story. I'm glad Scott Horton 1:14 you did. But I'm so confused because, geez, I seem to remember the Bill Clinton years being peace time, Jim. No. Jim Bovard 1:24 Well, that's true. I mean, that's the fairy tale. I mean, it's it's sort of like the fairy tale that there was not any corruption scandals under the during the Obama administration. And the George W. Bush was more honest than he seemed at the time. Scott Horton 1:39 Oh, yeah. He kept us safe. That said, you know, that one big thing? Jim Bovard 1:45 Well, if you're in the military, or if you're Iraq or Afghan D or about 25 other nationalities, right? ethnic groups. Scott Horton 1:56 Right on Okay, so I do remember 1999 Actually, I was just pretending. And so what happened was, is he was impeached but not removed. And then he celebrated by starting the war. Pretty much. Oh, and in fact, I guess we know right from Gail, she's book that Hillary essentially wouldn't talk to him unless he would bomb Serbia. And that was how they put their marriage back together after the Lewinsky scandal was based on spilling this blood. And so yeah, fancy that. Who? Who would have guessed that? Hmm. But anyway, well, so but it was all for good cause to say the people are what? Jim Bovard 2:37 Well, the clinton folks said there was genocide going on the Serbs were guilty of genocide.

Ep 101 -- Youth Stroke and Habits with Ella Sofia

Modern social media means anyone can reach out and connect with other stroke and brain injury survivors. And we are part of an amazing community. Instagram is where I first encounter stroke survivor and entrepreneur Ella Sofia. We met through an Instagram Live video she did with Joe Borges of the Neuro Nerds podcast. Ella survived two strokes when she was 14. I’m glad she tells story for several reasons. One though, is the reminder that kids can have strokes. A lot of folks don’t realize that. If you’d like to learn more about stroke in kids, you can listen to my conversation from 2019 with Dr. Heather Fullerton Another important element is that Ella was athletic and still had her stroke. Being active and healthy with good blood pressure reduces your chances of having a stroke, but it doesn’t eliminate it. A number of guests on the show have been healthy, young and had a stroke. Sometimes it’s for an obvious reason (after the fact) like the Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM) Ella experienced, and sometimes we may never know, which was the case with Whitney Morean. So why bother getting in shape? First of all, a healthy body  does still reduce the odds of stroke even if it doesn’t guarantee that it won’t happen. Second, it makes recovery faster and more complete. Bio Ella Sofia, Habit Coach is a content creator at www.retrainyourbrain.ca. In January 2008, at the age of 14, Ella suffered a hemorrhagic stroke due to an AVM rupture in her cerebellum.  About 9 years after her injury, through a long process of self-care and self-reflection, she finally and thankfully realized that mental rehabilitation is just as, if not more important than physical rehabilitation.  Now, she specializes in the mind’s role in habit creation to help others with their mental rehab and ultimately help others use habit to simplify their personal growth. Ella received a Master of Arts, Sociology degree from the University of Waterloo in 2018.  Her research revolved around risk management, resilience, and security in Canada airports.  She spent nearly 3 years working for the Canadian government in national security while completing her degree.  During her time with the government she realized that the resilience of the airports and structures she was studying was not so different from the resilience of the mind.  This realization lead her to integrate many of the concepts and practices learned from her research into her coaching today. What is an AVM? An AVM is a misconfiguration of blood vessels. Instead of arteries gradually leading to smaller and smaller capillaries that then lead to larger and fewer blood vessels and into veins,  in an AVM, that network of capillaries doesn’t develop properly. The blood vessel can’t properly regulate and withstand the blood pressure. Eventually, it can fail. That results in a brain bleed — a hemorrhagic stroke. Here is an article that talks about it in greater detail. Changing Habits Habits — good or bad — are unconscious behaviors. To change them we first have to make ourselves conscious of the context of the habit. Ella talks about how to do that. When you feel the urge to engage in a bad habit, stop, ask yourself some questions and take some notes. Who? Who are you with or thinking about? What? What are you doing at the moment? What is going on? Don’t worry if it doesn’t seem connected to your habit. Just make note of it. Where? Where are you? Make note of it. Get specific about where you are in your home or in the world. When? When did the urge happen? Note the time or other temporal queues, What are you feeling? What sort of mood are you in? What other things are you worried about? You don’t have to do all the analysis. Just start by making note of these things. As you collect data, you’ll start to see trends. Then the work can start.

Today, is May 5, 2020, and The World Health Organization (WHO) has declared May 5th every year as the “ Save Lives: Clean Your Hands” Day. It is the day that we must give thanks to nurses, midwives, and Dr. Ignaz Semmelweis known as the Father of Hand-Washing and Savior of Mothers, Who? Who is Dr. Semmelweis? Let me tell you a story about Dr. Ignaz Semmelweis and why he is called the Father of HandWashing, and during this time of coronavirus pandemic, where everyone is practicing public health hygiene of handwashing for at least 20 seconds can kill the virus. You will learn that washing hands can actually save lives, literally. However, the moral of the story is that sometimes showing data, numbers, and graphs and charts is not enough, it is the story behind the number that connects with your audience that’s most important. For the clinicians, researchers, data scientists, epidemiologists, biostatisticians, and public health professionals who love to crunch numbers and speak in number, we must always remember that people don’t remember the number, but they remember the story. Let’s our story begin in 1846 in Vienna Austria with a Hungarian doctor, Dr. Ignaz Semmelweis.

Leadership can be more pain than glory and few truly appreciate the demands of a good leader. Anyone seeking to be in leadership (or those already leading) should ask themselves the following important questions: Who - Who are you- Who do you want to lead-Who has lead you-Who is leading you now? What - What are your qualifications that validates your desire for leadership? Where - What is your ultimate destination for those whom you wish to lead? What is your end-goal?

It was released on July 9th, 1985 by Arista Records. So let's talk about the meaning of the song. What does Zoomin' mean? I think it means who's checking out who. And it sounds like Aretha Franklin is in competition with a guy. They are both playing the same game. As soon as the guy thinks he's got Aretha, she mentioned in her song that the fish jumps off the hook. So it sounds like Aretha is the winner….

“Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.” -C.S. Lewis Not far from here, there was a garden encircled by a stone wall. Lacing through the middle of the garden was a healthy, productive Grapevine. In this garden, songbirds laid their eggs in nests constructed from pieces of vine that they had clipped with their sharp beaks.  The mother and father songbirds both worked hard, protecting the eggs that housed their baby birds. They would keep the eggs warm until they hatched, and then they would continue to provide warmth, love, and food until the babies grew old enough to fly away and eat the grapes on the vine without help.  Now there was in this same garden, a Fox and a Snake. Fox was tricky and fearful, but Snake was cunning and evil. Although the Grapevine had never failed to produce enough grapes to feed all the animals in the past, Fox was afraid of scarce resources. He worried that someday there would not be enough grapes. The old Snake was everyone's enemy, plotting in the hope that he could one day utilize Fox's fear to consume the songbirds. Now, Snake was more crafty than all the animals that lived in the garden. One late night, while the garden slept, Snake brought Fox some fermented grapes to eat. While Fox ate, Snake uncoiled an evil plot.  The songbirds knew that Fox and Snake were not their allies, but they did esteem their worldly wisdom. They knew that Snake could perceive when frosts were coming and that Fox was full of gossip about events happening in distant fields. So when Fox and Snake went to the songbirds heralding impending destruction, they listened from a distance at what they had to say.  Snake explained that an expected frost would kill most of the Grapevine, while Fox warned that there would not be enough grapes to sustain the flock in the spring. The songbirds knew that the Grapevine had never failed to provide everything needed for nesting and food. Even in the cold months, the birds could eat the plentiful insects in the fallen leaves and fruits. However, Fox and Snake spoke with conviction, so the songbirds listened to them. A seed of anxiety was sown. Time in the garden continued as it had. The sun rose in the east and traced a happy arch across the sky, before melting into the arms of the soft summer nights in the west. The enlivening afternoon rains fell on all the animals whether they were wise or foolish, evil or good. In all this abundance, the songbirds forgot to remember to be afraid of scarce resources. By and by, Snake warned the songbirds again that if they did not leave the garden and go into the fields, there would not be enough food. While the songbirds continued as they had been, laying eggs and building nests to protect them, they were uneasy. Snake knew that, if he wanted Fox's seeds of anxiety to sprout into fear, he would need to water the threat with more deception.  Again, evil enlarged in darkness. At night, while the songbirds were sleeping with their eggs, Fox disguised his voice to sound like an owl. He ventriloquized, "Who? Who -who? Who will adventure with me to the hills? Who will go out into the fields to gather better food?"  Some of the father songbirds heard the owl call and left. Some of the fathers left because they were impressed by the wildness of the mysterious owl. Others left because they believed that they would have better opportunities if they abandoned their eggs. Some fathers deserted because they saw the others forsaking their families and felt compelled to imitate. But still, the mother songbirds remained with their eggs, alone in the quiet darkness. Although the tricksters had caused significant damage, they were not satisfied. Their ultimate goal was to own the entire Grapevine for themselves. Again, in the night, under the deep shadow of the stone wall, they applied the final coating of corruption to their... Support this podcast

Freud: Nein Nein Nein! Holmes: No, no! You got to believe me Doc! It’s all true. Tomathy wanted me to see you. He’s gone off the charts with the monkey balls in him, and I’ve been trying to cover his rampant sickness and all that time, that little voice in my head pushing, “Tick tock Tarquin!, Tick Tock Tarquin! Ah! Ah!!!” Again now! It’s wild with the anger!!! Help me!! I’m Madden the Head, must make it orderly! Must make it orderly, that’s what I do! Ah! Freud:  What? Oi! (Slaps Holmes’s face) Awww jaaa, I see what you mean. Holmes: Please tell me, am I going insane? Freud: Well- Holmes: Tomathy wants nothing more to do with me! Freud:  Shut up! Please. I believe in the truth, knowing oneself and that the truth will set you free. Holmes: But how Doctor Freud? Help me! Must make it orderly!! Tomathy, he needs me! I have to see him! He’s gone to see that Murphyarty, he loves him now! (HOFBURG PALACE - 3) Murphyarty: Oh good! I am so glad you are happy you see it my way! So you will be delighted to learn that Seamus, our Catholic socialist friend, will step in and make a call to Herr Freud’s house? Seamus? Seamus: Yes sir. Tomathy: Oh no, not at all, I’m sure you would find it valuable to sit in on the session Seamus. It would help you with your seminarian studies. How the mind works and all that… I trust you. Seamus: (STERN) I will go then. Murphyarty: Same can’t be said for poor Mr Holmes. He can’t even trust himself, as I control him! Hahahaha. Constructed him and controlled him. All this time. Amazing isn’t it? Just a simple trick of suggestive recall, repeated daily in my cell as he, the head orderly, cleaned and took the brain of my first experimental assassin ‘Wendle Brindle’ away! Tomathy: Assassin? Brindle? Did you say Wendle Brindle? In a cell? Murphyarty: Yes! In the City Mental Reservation when I was imprisoned there. Your Holmes, or ‘Tarquin Madden the Head Orderly’, programmed him to break me out, and used a lead-lined wooden lunchbox to continue the suggestive recall of my instructions in his mind! To kill Michael Collins! Isn’t it magnificient! And it worked! Hahaha… More tea? Tomathy: Oh- Murphyarty: As you said, it’s not schizophrenia! Just good old physiological brain disturbance, caused by Tarquin Madden’s mother! Tomathy: Oh my- Murphyarty: She gave him the ‘bad brains’. His mind was porous from a dominant parent. I simply replaced her- Tomathy: I feel very sick- Murphyarty: And he set us free, with Tarquin hypnotised into believing himself an inmate on the run. Tomathy: I need to close my eyes… (BERGGASSE 19 - 4) (Slap) Holmes: Aaagh! Freud:  Wake up! (WHACK) Wake! Up! Holmes: Ungh!!! (COLLAPSE) Freud:  It is an illusion based on the infantile emotional need for a powerful supernatural father figure, Holmes: Unggfff... Madden the Head... Orderly... Make... Freud:  Nein! (WHACK) Holmes: Urugh! Madden, orderly... Head orderly... Freud:  Nein, nein, nein, ja! Unt enter the world of the mind unt the world of the imagination (WHACK) Holmes: Aaagh! Freud:  Wake up! (HOFBURG PALACE - 4) Murphyarty: Tomathy, you look like you have seen genius at work! Mm, and you have! Wendle Brindle went on a killing spree caused by ‘Aubrey’ / ‘Tarquin’ himself, which you, an amateur sleuth fascinated, by this scruffy oik, who stole his suit, could work with, to satisfy his detecting curiosity as the growing stature and respect of the idiot savant Aubrey, with his wooden lunchbox; ME, became apparent!  Tomathy: Please stop- Murphyarty: He did my bidding! All is well Tomathy! You are with me now! Oh, and, wait, there’s more, you went to Germany! An amazing confluence! My time with Aubrey was gone but there he was. I had been subsequently caught on the run in the Irish Free State and transferred to Landsberg prison where; you all were for some reason? Tomathy: We were in Munich to go for relaxation, Murphyarty: Fantastic! It really is. Tomathy: To Spa treatment, we had an interpreter, we went to a beerhall, Murphyarty: Inside, I read a lot on this Herr Doctor Sigmund Freud. His id, ego and super-ego are functions of the mind rather than parts of the brain and they do not correspond one-to-one with actual somatic structures. Tomathy: We got arrested… Murphyarty: Perfect for more programming of poor old Aubrey’s porous mind! Tomathy: Oh no- S-Seam- why are going to Freud’s apartment, Seamus? Seamus: I, eh, well it’s like this Mr Wilson- Murphyarty: He does more than serve coffee and cake. He must kill your Mr. Holmes of course. I am done with him. Tomathy: What? Murpharty: As you said you are. Tomathy: You can’t! You- evil… Black Velvet Man! Oh my, why, Holmes just was right! Murphyarty: From the mouths of morons comes light! (Opera flares up) Tomathy: …about everything. You evil bastard. You live inside his mind, inside that box, directing him, a master, a master- Murphyarty: THE master! Twisting your mind and smashing your dreams hahaha, ehh… Tomathy: A master of puppets! Murphyarty: Try the pancakes! Tomathy: Holmes! No! Seamus! Come back! I have to stop this. It’s my fault! Murphyarty: (SLAMS TABLE) Is this not what you want? Tomathy: HOLMES! (RUNS OUT) OOOH! Murphyarty: Fly, fly my pretty, Seamus: Sorry Tomathy, it’s my job. Murphyarty: (SHOUTS) Seamus?! Seamus: Yes Mr Murphyarty? Murphyarty: Kill Them both. Seamus: Sir… (MUSIC CRESCENDOS) Murphyarty: Ahh, a rousing composition. (Applause) Dignitary: Excuse me, Herr Murphyarty? Murphyarty: Mmm? What do you need? Dignitary: The Society has asked if you were able to invite Chancellor Seipel along with you to your lecture this evening at the new Festsaal Grand room? Murphyarty: I’m sure I can construct that for you when I see him, but- Dignitary: Oh he’ll be back here by three. He is visiting the great Sigmund Freud at 2pm. Murphyarty: Hahahahaha! He will have a story to tell me when he comes back! Hmm, a cup of tea please and a digestive... Tick-tock, tiiiick-toooock! (BERGGASSE 19 - 5) Holmes: Ufff... Tick tock Tarquin! ... Madden... Head Orderly... City Mental Reservation... Madden the Head! Freud:  JAAA! That’s good! (WHACK) Holmes: Aaagh! I’m, I’m, Tarquin Madden, Head Orderly at the City Mental Reservation, working in the criminally insane wing! And then there was him! HIM! Freud:  Ja. Who? Who?. (WHACK). Holmes: Ahh! He was incarcerated as a threat to the ‘fledgling state’! He spoke to me from his cell. In the cell on the left of him was young Wendle Brindle and then O’Toole on the right. I drove Wendle Brindle mad with tales of my mammy as I cleaned up, she used to leather me with a slipper every night for the bad brains in me! Pegged me tongue to the washing line! Wendle was too sensitive... And the man in the middle, he knew it, and he was angry! Wendle was his. And I took him away from him! Freud:  JAAA! Who? Unt Why? (WHACK) Holmes: Uhhghh, Wendle was under his control... control… total control… Das Über ich! The Total Controller! And I took him away. He befriended me... he was nice to me and he... oh no! NO!

Col in The United States Army -- "All of your guests are excellent and offer a lot of wisdom, but as you've done more than 300, what are the top 5 in power rankings of guests on your show? Kat Cole - Courage & Confidence + Curiosity & Humility George Raveling - The curiosity of a 5 year old, he is a learning machine Brian Koppelman - Follow your curiosity and obsessions with great rigor Jim Collins - Who is YOUR WHO? General Stan McChrystal - “Your character is something you can control.  You can decide what your character is.  Nobody can take it from you.” Questions from CaSaundra Garber -- Technical Project Manager, Portland, Oregon -- Who have you always wanted to have on your podcast that you haven't made happen yet?  Reading The Alliance, what are your thoughts on it? Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos, Oprah, a panel with Aaron Rodgers, Peyton Manning, Tom Brady "You are the sum of your experiences."  A lot of the learnings of my life have come from the great coaches I've played for in my life. One of the biggest parts of The Alliance is the idea of doing "a tour of duty."  Changing jobs and learning new skills and the benefits of it.  Tour of duty = What do you want to learn and gain in this specific area of business?  Don't get a job just to have a job, take a job that will give you a tour where you come out of it in a planed time frame and you've learned something new. --> David Epstein writes about this in Range and on THIS episode.  People that earn roles in the C-suite have a variety of roles on their way to that position.  Open your mind more to take on a role that is currently completely outside of what you do.  This also helps you walk a mile in the shoes of others and creates compassion/empathy. Question from Daniel Jellings -- Manager Local Government, Adelaide, Australia -- Career has been linear, regular promotions along the way, became a manager about five years ago.  What are your thoughts on proactively exploring other roles that are outside of my current skill set (that could be a side step) in order to eventually become a General Manager?

"You have to mow the grass in both places."  There are a lot of advantages to seeking opportunities that force you to stretch and learn.  They are initially uncomfortable.  "If you want something extraordinary to happen to you, you're going to have to take a an uncomfortable risk in every dimension of your life." -- Scott Galloway Question from Ryan Ogle -- Championship Director for PGA of America, Bend Harbor, Michigan -- What is your current morning and evening routine?  What is your process for utilizing a daily journal? Wake up at 4:45 -- Drink water, stretch, read, journal, workout, breakfast with family, drive daughters to school, work.  When finishing manuscript, I wrote a lot during the early hours of the day.  At night, I like to read out of books (Kindle in the morning and at the gym). Discussed my preparation process for a podcast. A daily journal is helpful to remind yourself of your mindset at that particular time of your life.  It helps you remember what it was really like at that time.  And why I use technology (instead of paper and pencil) to write in my journal. Why I'm fascinated by The Wright Brothers... -- "If you're trying to do something of significance, you will have people who question you, who may think you're nuts." Question from Andrew (Opie) Brodbeck -- Former professional baseball player, Clearwater, Florida  -- What skills from playing football helped you in your business life off the field?  Took a personality test and didn't pass it based on the company feedback?  How to deal with that and develop confidence in yourself in something off the field?  How to lead a dysfunctional team that lacks trust (Chelsea)? It's important to properly set your expectations and realize you'll never get the rush of playing in front of 105,000 people again. Some of the skills that translated: How to prepare, how to deal with adversity, how to be resilient, how to develop the willingness to work... I was able to share what I learned from the best coaches.  Showing that you're coachable.  you must be coachable to learn something new.  Being comfortable with a daily scoreboard (which we had in a sales environment).  On the first day of employment, I asked the VP, "who's the best?"  And then shadowed that person. Confidence -- How to build it like Beyonce?  "Confidence is built through a series of successful events in your life."  Those successful events were built through preparation.  Run a success autopsy -- Why did we win?  Why did it go well?  Create momentum in your life.  Create success in multiple life categories -- Those people take their framework wherever they go to create success.  No only means "not yet." Read Pat Lencioni's work on the dysfunction of a team Question from Lizzie Merritt-- Manager/Leader, Jacksonville, Florida. (and member of my Leadership Circle)  --The quality of your leadership depends on the quality of your questions. I imagine there are plenty of examples of massive failures that can be traced back to a leader not asking the right questions.While this concept is simple on the surface, it gets tougher in practice.  As a leader, how do you respond with questions instead of answers?  How do you know the right questions to ask? Leading with questions -- As a new manager, you may have the need to "always have the answers."  As you develop more wisdom and confidence, you'll stop doing this.  The greatest mentors in our lives are the ones who don't give the answers, they are the ones who help me figure out the answers.  They ask the poignant questions to help me figure it out.  The first questions are good, but the best questions are the follow ups.  Listen, distill, synthesize, ask more, then go deeper....  Don't script questions, but prepare with notes on that person and what they're doing, be an active listener (think like a trampoline)... Write down the qualities of leaders you admire, like, look up to, and write down the qualities of the leaders you feel the opposite about.  Review it regularly... Dealing in uncomfortable conversations -- Crucial Conversations (book).  It should never be a surprised when giving someone bad news about their performance.  The feedback should be happening on a regular basis.  "It is in our best interest for you to improve."  Kim Scott's book Radical Candor  "It's a lot harder when you care" -- "Because I care about you, I need to tell you something difficult." Question from Eric Liddic-- Print broker, Dayton, Ohio -- What advice would you give to someone who hasn't sold in the past, but needs to sell now? Great sales people: are fantastic listeners, they care, and they try to help.  Read Dan Pink's book To Sell Is Human Analyze why you've won each deal in the past.  Understand how you can replicate that. Create a reason for people to call you (put useful material out in the world: podcast, blog, do a project for free) Why Joe Girard was the greatest car sales professional of all time -- "If you get a lemon, it gives me the opportunity to show off." Question from Marietta Sanders -- Lt. Colonel, Squadron Commander, US Air Force, stationed in United Arab Emirates -- What are the common areas you see the best leaders focus on within their businesses? The WHO -- Who will you surround yourself with?  The WHO is the biggest determining factor in your long term success.  Consistently surround yourself by people who are smarter than you. Great leaders have an ability to help "see around the corners."  They share their vision to make their followers feel better about where they're going.  They have vision. Great communication skill -- You have regular moments where you need to share the vision with vivid clarity.   How to attract and retain top talent -- When someone is looking outside of your organization for another job is because those people don't have clarity of their future within your organization.  The leader's job is to provide clarity for the people that they lead.  Great leaders are always on the look out for compelling stories... Then taking the story, distilling it to it's essence (the core themes), and then relating it to my specific role (the "what's in it for me?" OR "why should I care?")

Honestly, I think it turns her on. 0:24 This is Episode 203 of bourbon pursuit. I'm one of your host, Kenny Coleman. And there really wasn't a whole lot of news that happened in the whiskey world from our major distilleries out there. So I figured let's look at some highlights of recent news articles and videos from the past week. Fred Minnick, you know him as another host on here, but he also has his own YouTube series called The curation desk. Sometimes it's about bourbon and rum reviews. Other times you get just good nuggets information. And this past week, he released a video on a very unusual topic. I'm not going to spoil it for you, but 1:00 involved in illegal activity that accounted for more American whiskey sales that then in turn led to the temperance movement in the mid 1800s. You're going to really enjoy this one, so make sure you go and check out the link in our show notes. friend of the show, Chuck cowdery came out with his list of his favorite Bourbons of all time. Only six top this list and most of them are unicorns. Very, very old Fitzgerald Parker's blend to mash bills. But there's a surprising one on there. And that's wild turkeys Kentucky spirit. Yes, the widely available and abundantly on the shelves Kentucky spirit. You can read all of his tasting notes plus the entire list within our show notes as well. You heard me talk about on the show two weeks ago, but we have now opened up our recent pursuit series bottlings to the public. Episode 10 is one we're super excited for. It's our collaboration with Finger Lakes distilling. It's a five year we did mash bill bottled as 2:00 barrel proof. And as much as to our knowledge, it is the only one in existence that's out there.

So don't sit around and wait for these. Today's guest gets more FaceTime than the bachelorette. He's built up a big fan base amongst weather geeks. And now Jim Cantore of the Weather Channel joins bourbon pursuit to talk about his career. braving those crazy storms you see in viral videos, and how weather patterns and global warming are starting to affect today's bourbon stocks. We also get the 3:00 funny stories shared by Jim and Fred as they were drilling barrels together at jack daniels. This episode gives you a look into Jim's everyday life and how bourbon became a part of it. As a side note, this was a very timely episode. This podcast talks about the current climate and how Jim predicted the current tornado outbreak that's affecting Oklahoma in the recent weeks. And our thoughts and prayers are with the families affected during this time. But with that, let's hear from our good friend Joe over at barrell bourbon. And then you've got Fred Minnick with above the char. 3:37 Hi, this is Joe from barrell bourbon. We blend and bottle a cast drink, just as nature intended. You can find it on the shelves at your nearest retail store. 3:47 I'm Fred Minnick. And this is above the char. I'll never forget this moment. I was in a room and cognac France with a bunch of spirits professionals. The fire was crackling. We were drinking some 4:00 Fresh cognac out of the barrel, and we started debating how cognac was marketing itself. We all had some type of criticism for how that they were pursuing new markets and we all love cognac and to this day, I love cognac. It's a wonderful branding. And one of my big criticisms was around Louie. Louie the 13th bottle. It's like 1500 to $5,000 in Las Vegas. It's a $15,000 bottle. And it's in this beautiful You know, Crystal decanter that really does look like it's fit for a king. But we don't know what's inside it. The cognac maker. You know, Remy Martin never really revealed what was inside the bottle. That was 10 years ago. And today we're starting to see that happen and bourbon. You're seeing these fancy fancy bottles come out nice decanters really crafted and just look or Nate and 5:00 Beautiful. Woodford Reserve just came out with one bad rap bottle. It's going for 1500 dollars. Now brown Forman is always transparent about what's inside the bottle. And they were transparent with this as well. But no one's really spending 1500 dollars to get the whiskey. It's for the decanter. And I To this day, think that those decanters, well nice and they're very decorative and they add a nice little element to to the home. I think they devalue the whiskey a little bit. Because when you are buying something for the bottle, you're not buying it for the whiskey. So there's got to be a happy medium. How do we get past this desire to attract the ultra rich without stabbing the regular guys in the eye? You know, I think there's got to be a happy medium, but how do we get there? Do we lessen the decanter do we put better whiskey in the bottle 6:00 I don't know. But I do know this. When I see a 1500 dollar decanter of American whiskey, it leaves a really bad taste in my mouth. And I haven't even tasted the bourbon yet. And that's this week's above the charm. Hey, if you have an idea for above the char like someone did for this one, hit me up on Twitter or Instagram. That's at Fred Minnick. Again. That's at Fred Minnick. Until next week. Cheers. 6:27 Welcome back to the episode of bourbon pursuit, the official podcast of bourbon, Kenny and Fred here today talking about, you're talking to a person that's in a business that kind of affects a lot of what happens inside of bourbon in itself, because we talked about Kentucky bourbon, really making an impact and really how the climate here makes it happen as well. But you know, we're not going to talk about just that. We're in talking about the personality behind the person that's here today. And I know Fred has a pretty good 7:00 story in history about how we came to know our guest today as well. Yeah, that's that's right, Kenny. So we're joined today by the great Jim Cantore, of course, the man you don't necessarily want to see in your town because if he's there, that means bad weather is coming. And we were judges together on the jack daniels barbecue competition a couple years ago. And we really just kind of hit it off and just had, you know, we just started talking whiskey and weather and other things. And, you know, I've met a lot of lot of interesting people in my life. And you know, Jim's one of those people that just kind of stuck and I'd say we've remained friends and I get texts, three o'clock in the morning, one in particular whiskies any good. And he gets he gets texts for me about like, you know, should I take cover for this little raindrop coming down, you know, so 8:00 It's fun, Jim. It's really great to see you. Thanks for coming on bourbon pursuit. Absolutely, brother. Yeah, as I think I got a text me about 20 minutes ago saying, Are you ready to go? Yeah, I'm like, yeah, I'm ready to go man next Wednesday. Sounds good. We talked about five o'clock. I'm ready to go. Yes. Yeah. You know, actually, it's this Wednesday. 8:19 Traffic trying to get home and job I apologize for Fred. We're working on his calendar. We're here with it. 8:27 I haven't had time to go back and check to see if it really was next Wednesday or this Wednesday. 8:33 Or do that it's probably I do I research. There you go. 8:40 Well, I gotta tell you to Atlanta traffic. Geez. That's kind of like real traffic, unlike livable. You know, you guys get murdered there on the traffic. Awful. Yeah, you know, it's kind of interesting with all the movies and things now they do and in Atlanta, it's almost like 9:00 The movies has come to the LA traffic into Atlanta. It's really weird. But, you know, one of the mistakes they made years ago was not putting an outer loop in a city of 67 million people know, so not having that outer loop means you got all sorts of commerce coming down from North Carolina, up from Florida, you know, from westbound and Alabama into Georgia, and everything kind of hits in the middle on this little thing called the perimeter in Atlanta. And I mean, it's just incredible. And when you throw a little snow in the mix, who gets real fun? How do how do folks in Georgia handle the snow? 9:41 Well, 9:43 they all leave work at once, Fred, and I mean, I guess it's human nature at the end of the day, because people are like, all right, wow, it's snowing. It's here a little earlier than they told me it was going to be so I need to get on the road. I need to make sure I get home. But of course is there yet 10:00 On the road, so is everybody else. And and and so all that commerce is still coming through Atlanta, and it just locks up the whole system. We had we had Snowmageddon a few years ago here, and tonight spent like 2024 hours in their vehicles. 10:18 Just gridlock. I mean, I've seen news stories where people are like, uh, banning their cars on Atlanta's freeways as well. I mean, that's happened in the past. Well, they did. And, you know, I don't want to just say this is Atlanta is problem because I've seen it in Raleigh. I've seen it in Charlotte. I've seen it in Nashville. I've seen it in New York City. Okay, I mean, I've seen it in St. Louis, just recently. So, I mean, it's just, we have to have a better plan of when we shut down. I mean, you know how we are as humans, man, we want to push it to the edge. And then Okay, we can execute our plan. It doesn't always work that way. Sometimes you got to be early and take your listings. If the forecast doesn't verify, and I'd rather be on that end of it. 11:00 The end of it with, with mom picking up you know her daughter or son at the daycare or dad whoever's picking them up, and they're crying because now they can't get home. And there's no food in the car. There's nothing to back you up with so so those are the human stories, the human part of that, that that I hate to tell, but it happens. Well, let's let's get into like how you got to where you are. You are one of the most fascinating social media follows. For anybody who's interested in weather. Tell us how you got involved in weather where what was the moment that made you want to be a weatherman it was it was all my dad. 11:38 You know, we sat down at the dining room table. And he came up to me and he said, I was sitting down he was standing and he looked at me as someone you want to do for the rest of your life. I looked at I mean, I love electronics. electrician, a fireman. I mean, those are, that's what I'd like to do. He goes he goes look is you need you 12:00 You need to go study the weather. You're like a frequent snows Aren't you leave the barn light on, you wait for the first flakes. You go shovel the walkways your mom can get to work in the morning. You know, you got to wake up for the next 50 years of your life every day to go to work. You better love what you do. You love the weather, go study the weather. Boom, that was it. And that was that was before the weather channel right before? 12:26 Yeah, so he said that to me, in 82. And that's the interestingly enough, that was the birth year of cable. And a lot of it in Atlanta. Because of the, you know, the relatively mild weather with the exception of Snowmageddon, the fact that you needed, you know, 365 24 12:47 seven workforce, you know, low cost of living, I mean, all those things kind of played into cables roll. Certainly I think Atlanta certainly being the birthplace of cable but 13:01 Yeah, we I remember in 86 when I graduated four years later, and my brother came up to me, I was up on a scaffolding painting a building. I just graduated college and he goes, Hey, Jim, The Weather Channel wants to talk to you. And I'm like, oh, wow, The Weather Channel, because we had just gotten them on, on cable. So when I started, we were in 28 million homes. And at the weather channel's peak, we were about 108 million. So I got a chance to really go through that tremendous growth period with the weather channel company, and it was just, I mean, I wouldn't trade it for anything. Wow. best parts of my life, man. Really? When you were you were when you were first when you first started there. What were you drinking? 13:45 Oh, two beers. 13:48 will cheat beers. Okay. I've been making a lot of money. 13:54 Online. So Fred, I went from Old Milwaukee and college. Okay, you believe Sorry, bro. I gotta be honest with you. 14:00 awakened, 14:01 Niccolo Blake. It's great. 14:04 Alright, so when did you When did you start drinking whiskey? 14:10 Probably a 45. I'm just kind of late bloomer, I guess. 14:15 It's almost like his I started playing golf at about 30 years old and, you know, after golf, it's so nice to just go have a drink. And it actually it kind of it started with scotch. And then you know, somebody said, try this single very My dad was a big scotch drinker. So I would go home and see him and you know, as he aged, it was kind of nice to just sit down and have a drink with my dad and drink what he was drinking. 14:40 So I found this old bottle. My grandmother used to work for a liquor store distributor. I found this old bottle of four roses 14:51 like that, why weren't you drinking this? Because I don't know. It's been sitting there for 20 years. So I I popped it open and, you know, the court would 15:00 Just a disaster. I mean, it was shattered. So there's like, so I just pushed it down in there and I started pouring it out and there's cork in the glass. But I took one sip of that. I'm just like, Oh, 15:13 this is my drink. Wow. So you're a scotch drinker on the bourbon drink. So four roses is the bourbon that turns your scotch palate into a bourbon palate. Yes, sir. That's awesome. Fred, do you think that's a little unique? And it's in its sense, too. Because I mean, I know that both of you and I we've tried older four roses, and some of it might not even compare to today's four roses in regards of like the quality that I didn't put out back then. Well, here's the thing is like I would want to see the bottle because there were by by him describing it as having a cork. That makes me think it might have been what was are we talking 90s was this in the mid 90s Oh gosh. This this 16:00 bottle was probably from the 60s 16:03 but when did you When did you have that taste? 16:08 Yes 90s so so it's been in the 90s so if that bottle was from the 60s you know do you recall any like 16:18 foreign language on it by chance was there it was clear American It was 16:26 a bottle because it was shaped like a 16:29 like a pyramid almost. Okay, so then what you had then you actually so I Kenny, he did not have a blend as your as you were thinking he had. I actually think that you had a single barrel from the one of the first single barrels from four roses as they were making their comeback and it was actually from the 90s 16:50 I do have a bottle in here somewhere. 16:55 Really 16:58 good luck finding that Fred. Just 17:00 You want to take a few minutes or 17:03 timeout timeout? Yeah. 17:08 The way that bottle you're describing Did it have a Green Label? 17:13 Do you recall it didn't have any label didn't have any light on it. So so you know, so I will be willing to say it may not have been four roses, but the fact that my grandmother was a distributor and we had four roses glasses, shot glasses, four roses, everything. I'm wondering if, if that was it, and I certainly you know, recently the comeback of four roses. as we as we all know, it's been huge. 17:38 So that's been kind of a bright spot in my eyes for my girlfriend drinks. Nice. Well, we'll talk about that later. 17:47 Well, you but the bottom line is there was there was a bourbon and the 90s that brought you you know, to where you are now and what after you had that taste? What were you 18:00 seeking out in the store and at the bar you and I've talked before a little bit I love grain. 18:07 I love a little candy corn. You know, I love a little caramel. And 18:14 I just I love the just the front end when as soon as it like hits my lips. It's just it's just delicious. And all of a sudden you know what? I started like smoking cigars. And the cigar became a great thing with the bourbon. This even makes it taste better. And cigar so especially you know, especially not an overpowering cigars, so just a lighter, medium bodied cigar. But that's that's kind of how it all got started. 18:42 They didn't even have the sin over here. It was starting to lead you down. 18:46 Well, yes. And you know, meeting friends early didn't help any 18:51 life. So I remember I remember walking down Lynchburg with you and like every 19:00 fifth person someone would stop. Oh shit. There's Jim cantorial tornado coming, you know, is there a hurricane coming? You know, everybody like they would see you and they would be a little afraid of what was commented? what's what's the strangest thing someone has said to you in public? 19:18 Can you sign my breast? 19:22 That's a new one. Fred is Amanda for that to you yet? Yeah. I'm just like, No, I can't. So yeah, I don't do body parts or dollar bills. I don't do face the dollar. So those are the two things that I will I won't sign but everything else is pretty much fair game. 19:41 Related equipment. An answer for that? You were not expecting I wouldn't know. I was. 19:48 I was I was expecting, you know, something. A little bit more weather related versus finding 19:56 the snowflake for me. Yeah. Okay. I'll get on that. 20:00 Do You Do you ever get like annoyed that people have you associated with 20:09 basically disasters? Because that's all you do. You mean you chase disasters for a living? Yeah. So when I did when we were working with MBC, which was just wonderful, I love that relationship with NBC, especially with NBC Sports. Because I got to do the Olympics. I got to do the Winter Classic, Super Bowls. It was just so it it was like being a part of a team, like a sports team. You know? 20:34 They they ran that show like you You had a role. It was an we treated everything like an event and it was really amazing. We rehearsed ad nauseum. We timed it out. I mean, it was really great TV. I I love working for NBC Sports. Wow. And I would do it again in a minute. But 20:56 you know, to to go and do some of those at the 21:00 high end events and be able to be either part of the show in even the littlest of ways with guys like doc Emmerich. And 21:11 you know, Bob Kostis and Al Michaels, who has coined me Dr. Do. They presented me at the London Olympics one time with the Doctor Doom hat? You know, because Al's kind of got an als kind of a closet meteorologist. When he goes out. He tells me when he goes out golfing with his buddies, they asked him about the weather. What's it going to do with? What do I need to dress for today? Of course, Medallia in Southern California. I 21:38 was like, 21:40 Well, yeah, of course they're asking you that it's an easy answer. But that's it was just great working with them. But But I don't know maybe because I just show up in some of the worst weather they've asked me to go out and 21:56 cover hurricanes floods, about done 98 tropical 22:00 systems as I like to call it, because they be the dependent depression and landfall, a tropical storm or hurricane. And 22:08 now I never say I want to get to 100. But it's inevitable, right? I mean, we know we're obviously always going to have hurricanes and tropical storms, but it just I, I like to put myself in the position of some of the worst whether they're all different to get like a, like a high doing that, like you have an opportunity to use. Yeah, I do. I mean, especially when I was when I was a kid. You know, I started The Weather Channel at 22. So, you know, 22:32 by about age 32 when I when I got out there, and this lady came up to me and writes will beach when I was covering hurricane death, she goes, You know what, Jim? I can see her too. She looked petrified. But she walked up to me through a bunch of people. And I said, Ma'am, can I help you somebody and she goes, I just wanted to tell you, you know, we know it's going to get bad here, but I just wanted you to know that we're glad that you're here to take us 23:00 through it. Wow. It was a really interesting moment in my life, especially as a meteorologist because all of a sudden, it wasn't about the swashbuckling through a storm anymore. It was more of a god, you know, I, I got purpose here. And I got it. I had a way to communicate with these people, get them out of harm's way, and really help. 23:24 And that's what that's I never forgot that moment because that was really the turning point. So Jim, I grew up in Oklahoma, and you know, we had NATO's all the time and we lived I lived through many many tornadoes and 23:39 Gary England, oh, it's someone like yeah, we would we would watch News Channel Nine and he, you know, we felt like he saved our life, you know, or we felt you know, he we knew to get covered. Gary was talking about it. And, you know, 23:54 out here in Louisville, Kentucky. I feel like they start getting all panicky if there's, you know, 24:00 One cumulus cloud and the air is there a you know are there's are there like some meteorologists who just have have the chops some who are just a little bit more panicky. I mean, you're brave and you go into anything, but I feel like some of them, you know, I will be honestly, there's probably things that 24:20 none of us should be in. Frankly. 24:24 It's your job to mission as a meteorologist to relay the message, to get people out of harm's way and to not panic yourself. Because if you if that is your 24:37 that's what they see in you. They're not going to listen to you. Okay, there. There needs to be a sense of calm, there needs to be a sense of control over going through this. It's not going to last forever. Most people will make it through it. Sadly, some will not. That is just the way of the world when it comes to a strong tornado. 24:58 We don't I mean, we hit 25:00 That we, as meteorologists, we love the tornadoes that are way out in the open plains. They are over, you know, pasture land that hasn't been farmed yet. That doesn't bother anybody. They don't take out any buildings. They don't hurt anybody. those are those are the beautiful ones to admire from a distance. But the ones that start coming through town you start seeing it debris, shield and cloud come up and you start seeing pieces of building and metal flying all around you know, your your your heart drops your stomach a little bit because you know, now you're in an area where there's population when you start seeing power flashes. 25:38 You know, you know that somebody's in harm's way hopefully everybody got out of that but you know, there's a chance and we're about to interesting enough. I mean, I don't know when this is going to play the podcast we're doing here but we're about to enter a period of really daily tornadoes. In Tornado Alley, traditional Tornado Alley Fred where you are from 26:00 It's going to get it's going to get really busy starting Friday out there. And it's going to last through at least the end of the month. 26:07 And that's 26:09 you know, it's it's such a somber feeling cuz I know I mean, growing up in an area where people died, you know from from a tornado and then you know, that's happened here in Kentucky and Indiana as well. It's just right. You know, I think a lot of people just look at the TV and see you all as like personalities, but you really, 26:27 you really do feel vested in, in the people's lives out there. It's that's not just talking. You know, 26:34 what's really interesting is, you know, I've worked at the weather channel for 33 plus years, and I've never really considered it a day that I have to go to work. Oh, yeah. Is it hard to get up at 315 in the morning, you bet. But it's hard for me to get up at 9am. So 26:52 so but but the fact that I this is a service, this is always going to be a service at the end of the day. 27:01 And that's what makes it great. 27:03 And never gets old that way. That's how I look. And when you come home when you sell it when you're celebrating for like a job well done, like, you know, finding a storm cloud or finding, you know, a pocket of 27:17 you know that saving someone's life, you know, the weather channel, what do you drink, and when you get home to celebrate, or at a bar, 27:25 the first thing I do is 27:28 if he's if he's getting up at 315, he's probably going to bed around. 27:33 I'm going to be asking you guys, I mean, a lot of times there's not celebration. I mean, it's you're coming back, you're literally dragon coming to the door. Because you're working long hours, you've witnessed hundreds of people that have gone through death and destruction. They've lost everything that they're that they own, that they know. You, 27:52 you're out there. Again, like I told you, it's your mission to tell the stories to let the rest of the country know what's happened here and get these people 28:00 as much help as they can get. So when you come home, there's a little PTSD. All right, you gotta deal with this. You gotta you gotta let it go. And I like to go up to my lake house in Lake Blue Ridge, Georgia. I love it. The water the mountains, I grew up in Appalachia. I love it. Being in the south, it's just a southern extended the same mountain chant I grew up on and you can let everything go there. And after that, you can sit back and you can say, Okay, what did I do? Good. What did I do bad? How could I improved upon what I've done? Who Who else could I have helped What else could I have said before the event that may have helped people? Those are the kind of things that you know, sitting out by the fire with 28:45 a little bit of will it's more McKenna 28:50 or speaking French language now. Yeah. So you know, now I know he's like, I know he likes these. I've seen his I follow them on Instagram and when I see Fred 29:00 Yo picture of these, you know, these bottles I'm like, Oh man, this is perfect. I'm right on board because if Fred likes it, it's got to be good. 29:08 Well, I'll tell you like, you know, I can feel that emotion, you know, coming from you. And I just got to tell you, you know, 29:17 yeah, it on mission in your life, you know what I'm yeah, it's right, you know, 29:23 very different but it's like, you know, 29:26 there's got to be pockets of what you do though, where you do find a moment to celebrate. I mean, because you you and your colleagues have found storms and save people's lives. You know, and there might have been one or two or you know, some so you get moments to celebrate or is it always a feeling of like you want you want to know in the moment to celebrate let me give you an example. So the other day yesterday, actually, in the morning, I go in, and in the Storm Prediction Center in Norman, Oklahoma puts out all sorts of for 30:00 Cass, and one of the things they put out are severe weather outlooks from day four through eight. 30:07 And what they'll do is if something needs to a certain probability, they will color in these different areas where severe weather may strike. So I'm looking at their new day four through eight. And I'm like, Holy smoke. Day 4567, and eight are all colored in. I've never seen that before. They must have done that before. No, actually, I don't think they have. So I get on Twitter and I send them a tweet and ask them if they've ever done that before. And sure, and so I started saying it on the air. You know, Hey, guys, I actually think is the first time that that the Storm Prediction Center has an outlook that day four through eight. And it was it just turned out to be that it was it was the first time that they've done that. So you know, what that does for me, is okay, he he he's passionate about the weather. He's alive. 31:00 into his craft to be able to recognize that after they God knows how many outlets that they put out here over the years I mean that was kind of a cool moment for me okay so if that if that's if that's a way to celebrate then then so be it yesterday I just remembered that 31:18 we could find as many small celebrations that drink as we want I mean it's true and in fact is you know Kenny and I you know this is since this is what we do for a living you know, we we just celebrate celebrating so we were looking for something to tell us what do so 31:36 that's a celebrate to day four through eight from SBC. Those guys do a wonderful job. And you know, that's the other thing to a lot of people don't realize you see me on the air. You don't realize how many people are behind the scenes of the Weather Channel. How many meteorologists that converse with how many people are in my ear like Greg diamond, he can't talk. You know, this is you know, Oklahoma City just got 1.5 inches of rain in the last 20 minutes. 32:00 Boom is a great stat for me, I throw it on the air. You know, great Twitter followers like Ryan, Molly and Eric Blake from the hurricane party. It's endless. It's endless, which is why I like Twitter. It's kind of our weather, weather enterprise home. 32:19 But just wonderful, wonderful people wonderful information, information, wonderful knowledge gathering from all these people and friendly, you probably see that you probably see that from comments on G probably see this, you know, I've seen you with with old timers that have have been through the business. You know, you you sit there and you spend a few moments with him and it may not be on Twitter, but it's actually in real life sitting next to him talking. And you kind of pick up a little something. Yeah. And it just it just helps the whole cause right at the end of the day so 32:50 and Kenny I would say like, you know, 32:53 the the weather industry is is relatively new in terms of like, you know, the American you know, scene 33:00 But I would say Jim would probably be on the Mount Rushmore of other professionals that's, you know, in and you know, our colleagues 33:11 have hair. 33:14 That's gonna be a new one. Yeah, I'm interested to see that how they do that. Just the various they get the sand actually at the sand down the heads, they can't chisel them out, you know, 33:23 the wind in the rain, I'll do that. That'll do it. It just means you're going to get your cranium better to be a better composite. 33:31 But, you know, you know, 33:33 Jim, you've also you've got some other interests. You're a big fan of cars. And you got you got some stuff there behind you. Tell us tell us about the wall behind you there all the cool Well, what's what's interesting about this stuff behind is I'm a big Yankee fan. Okay, and the NHL ray which the dragster is you see behind me there. 33:50 They actually the Yankee sponsored one of their couple of their cars and yeah, you can see those stragglers, let me see my let's go up a little bit. There. 34:00 Yeah. So you got that going on back back in the day in terms of NASCAR. 34:07 I was a big bottle Labonte fan, Bobby kind of reached out to me and I wouldn't watch him when the 2000 season 34:15 with his crew at Joe Gibbs racing, I mean, that was awesome. 34:19 But they're probably using any sport that's more impacted by the weather than racecar driving. I mean, you can't, you can't unless you're you know, driving an IndyCar it's going to be heavily impacted certainly by by the weather. I mean, ever how they tuned the engine. Obviously, with slicks, you're not driving around a wet track, even a couple of drops of rain, makes that slippery track even slippery or so. There's all sorts of things that certainly impact especially NASCAR. Now, I I see the footballs behind and you talk about sports being impacted by weather. And I know this is really old news, but I think a lot of our listeners 35:00 are probably football fans was the deflate gate was that was that a hoax? Was that is that 35:07 could could you realize so here's the deal even though I'm from New England 35:14 I am actually a huge Packers fan because we went up into the story on you know, Green Bay playing Green Bay and this is before they made the new warmed up fields at Soldier Field and Lambo back in the day in the winter up there was like playing on summit. Okay, when you took a hit you it was like taking a hit on pavement. That's what it was like it okay. And there were there weren't these specialty pads and these warmers these these guys were out there saying players today are soft. Their budget was these 35:47 little little worlds getting a little soft, but that's beside the point. 35:52 But the point is, is that I we went up there to Green Bay, and I'll never forget this guy's name is red daddy. 36:00 He was equipment manager. And he right when we walked in he was so friendly and so wonderful. He took us right into the equipment room. He started handing out sweats socks and hats because it was cold the story we're going to do it was cold because you may need a few of these extra layers and just kind of being around Green Bay for the whole four days was incredible. I'm walking through the you know 36:26 to far as getting taped up in the in the tape room or wherever it is the prep room but to go out and do practice and he looks over at me goes hey, you're that you're that you're that weather guy right? Sure you love 36:41 me is this is the I'm what I'm thinking myself Holy smokes this frickin brett farr. And so I'm like, What do I say to that? So I look back at him. And I say You know what? Hey, you're that 36:54 you're that what that the quarterback guy. So he just laughed and it's just what but it was just so damn 37:00 Down to Earth. There was nothing pretentious. It was just this wonderful town that owns this wonderful team with a tremendous winning tradition. How could you not be green Bay's Pat Green Bay Packers fan? Unless you're a Vikings fan? I get it. But the really and the first game we went to, here I am down on the field. And it's freezing rain is my flight gets canceled. Okay, from from, from Minneapolis to to Green Bay. I'm like, Oh, no. So I will draw. I'm like, screw it. I'm driving. So I'm driving through an ice storm. I finally make it there. It's the fourth quarter. 37:36 They they tie up the game. The Packers tie up the game. And then you remember the Antonio Freeman catch off his helmet? Yeah, yeah. Okay, I was on the sidelines. And 37:46 it was just unbelievable that the passion of the fans that just ever the nobody left and it's Dude, it's 35 degrees, freezing rain. It's brutal out there. And so now it's an overtime for this game. And so I never forget 38:00 Never forget 38:02 to cover story. So deflate gate was 38:10 you've probably heard of finishing beer using whiskey barrels, but a Michigan distillery is doing the opposite. They're using beer barrels to finish their whiskey. New Holland spirits claims to be the first distillery to stout a whiskey. The folks at Rock house whiskey club heard that claim and had to visit the banks of Lake Michigan to check it out. It all began when New Holland brewing launched in 97. Their Dragon's milk beer is America's number one selling bourbon barrel aged out in 2005. They apply their expertise from brewing and began distilling a beer barrel finished whiskey began production 2012 in rock house was the club is featuring it in their next box. The barrels come from Tennessee get filled with Dragon's milk beer twice, the mature bourbon is finished in those very same barrels. Rocco's whiskey club is a whiskey the Month Club on a mission to uncover the best flavors and stories from craft distillers across the US along with you 39:00 bottles of hard to find whiskey rack houses boxes are full of cool merchandise that they ship out every two months to members in over 40 states go to rock house whiskey club com to check it out and try a bottle of beer barrel bourbon and beer barrel rye use code pursuit for $25 off your first box 39:20 so deflate gate was 39:24 so as you yeah you keep deflecting that one up 39:27 you know Robert Kraft and Florida or anything so I'm glad you kept it too flaky. uh you know hey, it, it is what it is but how do you know how to use the weather to realize that you know what happens within the cold winter's night you go you start your car you start driving and if you have one of these newer cars to tells you your tire pressure went down 39:49 less because the cold air so So Tom Brady was right or they were they were right there study was right. Does that the right 39:58 let's let's stay a little bit on the 40:00 Some some weird kind of questions like, I have friends who tell me that their knees hurt and that thunderstorm coming. Is that real? Yeah, the pressure changes can affect people kind of cranks up the Arthritis a little bit. 40:14 Sometimes the humidity sometimes the moisture in the air, the cold, damp. 40:19 Yeah, I totally believe it. You know, I don't think there's anything it's one of these things for the candidates. It's not super scientific. I don't think there's a cut rule on it. It is because of the because everybody's body is different. They're affected differently. I mean, one guy's low pressure may not be another guys or gals. All right. It's different. But it's it's definitely there. I've heard it enough to say we've got the evidence. We got the circumstantial evidence. That's very interesting. In American whiskey we are. 40:50 We are read as the same problem he drinks something you can feel it in is nice and nice. 40:55 Especially when I fall down the stairs 40:59 when we 41:00 When we look at like American whiskey we are very much you know, the majority of the distillers are a lot of them are using like kind of climate control but there are some who who are not. 41:12 And it comes up a lot about you know, is climate change going to have an impact on American whiskey and really you know, I think the verdict SAP but the one thing that we're facing a lot of right now in Kentucky is the rain and and like constant flooding, you know, right. So here's what I'm going to say to that. 41:33 We grow a lot of corn. In this country, the Corn Belt is very well known, you know, from the Midwest up through the, you know, across the Great Lakes and into the High Plains. 41:46 They've gotten soak this year, they're going to get soaked over the next couple of days. So that's certainly delays corn. 41:54 But if you let's just say that we warm the planet by two degrees, and the 42:00 Now we open up all these growth areas and Canada 42:05 so not you so now you extend your growth area up and Canada 42:10 you know they did, I think will always be able to grow corn is my total will grow it somewhere will get it from somewhere. Does does like increased water impact a kind of a microclimate of an area because what we're seeing is we're seeing the waters rise around like distilleries like the rivers are getting higher, the lakes are getting higher. Yeah, how will that impact like warehouses and stuff like on a kind of a like a man, that's my biggest concern is, you know, when you look at a warmer atmosphere, you can hold more water molecules, right. And it's the same physics that are squeezing them out. But if you get more squeeze out, you're going to squeeze out more and so it's raining harder. And it really riffing the find these just prolific rainfall events, double digit rainfall 43:00 totals, you know, and ask the folks at Houston they got Houston we got a problem okay because they get these things all the time now. 43:09 So imagine being a city versus you know, farmland where you can take certainly a little bit more water but that is the problem it's raining harder. That is not good because it's raining at rates that the soil can absorb the moisture and so we're also it runs off rich fertile soil and so you changing the landscape you're changing the fertility of the soil, and that's a big deal 43:31 at that, that's something also we have to keep an eye on for sure. There's also maybe a concern like right now the the wide oak forest of the eastern part of the United States seems to be fine, but if this rain keeps up, you know, it's it's surely going to get down to the roots of a lot of those white oak trees. You know, 43:50 it's interesting the the the white folks seem to be doing okay at the moment. 43:57 What I've noticed though, are the red Oh, 44:00 are very susceptible to drought and heat and cold. They're very finicky. There's a lot of rock in the middle. There's a lot of broken limbs, they just don't look healthy. Especially with more water. For example, blares, Ville, Georgia got 44:22 100 inches of rain last year, which is unprecedented. I'm going to be interested to see as we go through the next few years, what impact that has on the Oaks, I actually have, you know, a property where I took down a bunch of red oaks because they were a threat to to homestead. And I couldn't believe what I saw in there, me and my buddy when we cut this tree down, we're like, holy smiley, the whole middle of this rotted, it was gonna fall Anyway, I'm like, thank God, we took that down. So now I'm looking for other red oaks that may need to come down because of the same problem. So there's something going on. 45:00 With the oak and yes, Fred, do 45:04 you know animals and plants know, or had a hint of what's happening before we do as humans? I think that's possible. I really do. So when you look at the last season, the red oak tree now, when you look at Red Oak versus white oak, here's a little kind of a fun like bourbon historical fact, the distillers actually figured out like red oak, that kind of stuff happened to red oak, and it wouldn't retain water when I turned them into barrels. And so that's one of the big reasons why the majority of the barrels are made from carcass album, you know, species of white oak, but yeah, yeah, but 45:39 red oak. Is though, is the red oak has always been the weaker species. Yeah. Yeah, 45:45 Jim, I've got a kind of question for you to when we're talking about, you know, the weather paint, the weather changes and everything shifting. And Fred might be able to kind of talk about this too, because, you know, living here in Kentucky, we hear all the time that Oh yeah, this is the best climate for 46:00 been the cold winters, the warm summers, however, the past two or three winters here and been pretty mild. You know, we've had maybe one school closure two inches of snow. And that's it. I mean, we're not talking, you know, weeks upon weeks of like severe cold weather. Are you seeing any kind of like climate changes or shifting that's happening, at least in our part of the country where we could expect this sort of happening for years to come that could even affect future stocks? 46:33 I mean, guys, there's no question the last 30 years or so, which is it you know, about viable climate record? We've seen warming, especially in the Arctic regions. 46:46 There's no you know, we've measured that the same instruments of measure that warming, so it's definitely there. What's interesting though, is people need to realize that it's not just warm when we 47:00 When you get an overall warming and other things are going on, it can lead to other extremes. In other words, how many record warm February's and marches that we had, and then all of a sudden to snap into a cold blast in April and record lows. So it's these kind of zigzagging really extreme undulations of the jet stream that we haven't quite figured out. Is that is that something because of now what is used to be so much ice over the Arctic? more dark areas that are absorbing heat and maybe changing the overall jet stream? There's there's a lot of speculation here. There's just a lot of stuff we don't know. All right. 47:42 Is this a short term trend? Can the earth correct itself? are humans playing a part? I certainly think you know, with the amount of you're talking about what 7 billion 47:52 probably yes to all the above. Yeah, quite a few billion people out there, you know, certainly impacting things. I do hate that. All of this gets pulled 48:00 Assize because I think if we looked at it from a purely scientific perspective, we could analyze it a little better. But what happens is everything gets politicized and get one side going for the other. And then one side denies it. The other side fights back. It just I feel like we're, you know, the climate in conversation is that a disservice due to political it's very sad because the, the ends of the spectrum, the deniers and the in the alarmists are the loudest, okay? 48:32 It's the majority in the middle that are willing to listen and do something and be good stewards of their planet that are kind of open to all you know, hey, okay, I listened to you. I listen to you. You know what, yeah, maybe I could recycle better. Maybe I can drive an electric car. You know, people that genuinely want to be good stewards of the planet. I think that really needs to be. 48:55 I agree. And don't you think in this wonderful 49:00 world that we live in with so much ingenuity that we will figure out stuff and look at look at Tesla, you know, looking at 49:09 Elon Musk and Tesla, just a great idea. But sometimes with solutions come problem, what do you do with the batteries? You know, 49:19 when the cars are dead, you know, that's a lot of that's a big chunk of waste right there. You know, right now, when we looked over the oceans, I was reading something the other day we have, especially over the Pacific, the pump, the plastic gyres, now four times the size of France, whether that's true or false, I'm just telling you, I read it, that's a big deal. Okay, we can't have that kind of plastic over the ocean. We need to fix that. That is not being a good steward to your planet, and boat in before we worry about these other things. We need to fix that. We need to we need to get a handle on that. And then we can start dealing with the other stuff because that's what humans do. We figure stuff out 50:00 Now, this is a real that's a really great segue into a moment when you and I actually picked out a barrel together. 50:09 How we figured something out so that I can't use the hundred year old drill. Is that where you're going with this? So let me paint the picture for for the audience. This is because it's we're at the barbecue competition and it's the party and 50:28 we're with stormy Warren and a couple other folks course. You know, stormy has his own Sirius XM, you know, station. And we are great guy. Yeah. Also also a cowboy. You know, go pokes. 50:46 You gotta throw it in there, don't you? Yeah, it's right. Go, folks. So we, you know, I'm with the assistant master distiller Chris Fletcher. And, you know, he's given us a tour, and it 51:00 Say, Chris, let's, let's take some barrels. And he's like, Well, you know, we don't really do that, you know, as Chris, let's take some barrels. It's me It's 51:12 seriously Kenny, you gotta go back here. I mean, you know, Fred, well, he's literally drilling this guy. Yeah. All right. And I in the way that he got it done was Fred literally going back and telling stories on the stories from this distiller he was kind of one upping the distiller almost every story that unless like, Who is this guy? This is 51:39 I mean, he just knows everything about bourbon and the history of jack daniels. I'm like, this is unbelievable. So he couldn't say no to friend. Anyway, go ahead, Fred. I sorry, I I No, no, and I gotta tell you, I don't like I don't like doing that. And then never. It's never like super 52:00 intentional. But, you know, the these these brands, these distilleries, they just they have their like marketing spiel and they're like their templates, right? And I just like, you know, when they say something like, you know, we were the first sour mash or something like that I'm gonna be like, well, actually in 1818, you know, 52:23 and it's not their fault. It's just, it's it's marketing, but I know dude, I'm telling you, you had to be there because I'm just like, Who is this? 52:34 He knows everything. Like, this is unbelievable. Like where you 52:40 agree, like he's been a dick as he knows everything. It wasn't like hesitation. It was kind of like, hold on a second. I mean, just off the top of his head. And he would just come out with these incredibly beautiful stories, like only Fred can tell, you know, and it's just like, whoo. I want to hear what he has to say. So 53:00 distiller could not say no when it came to open anyway go ahead we didn't understand go barrel go we were 53:09 we got the chance to crack open some barrels and then it came down to like well which barrels we want to go to? And I said well let's go you know let's let's let's find the ones that have the best age on them. And as we went into the one of the warehouse I don't recall the warehouse but it was you could tell was it was paring down it was a little skinnier. There weren't as many barrels in there and so it was obviously one that they were pulling for their single barrel program. So this was an allocated single barrel warehouse, whatever warehouse that might have been, and he comes up with this fucking drill. 53:45 Will it will it and all these other distilleries have like a real drill? You know, jack daniels with this like hand crank drill, with like I was the one from who's the original distiller for jack 54:00 Daniels? Well, are they 54:03 with a narrow screen or limit loud Dan call? 54:10 100 years old, let's just put it that way. It was a I mean, seriously, it was all I mean, maybe had like two years old probably what do you think it was old? I can't, it did look like something that they would have had American pickers kind of thing. It would have been on the set of Deadwood. It was that old. And they come in here and it's got like this, this handle where you kind of you hold it, and then you crank it over here. And the drill bit the drill but actually looks like it's like somebody forged it with a hammer. I mean, the drill it looks like ancient. So like eight so as old as it was, they could have at least replace a drill, but I don't think they did. Anyway, so it gets in there. And he's drilling. The damn thing just disappears. 55:00 He, he loses the truth in there, like in the in the barrel barrel. Yes. So I'm cranking this thing think about an old crank. And I'm holding cranking it and all of a sudden it just pops out of the drill. I'm like, Oh, it's stuck in the barrel. It's stuck in the barrel. And of course I'm you know, I'm not the laughingstock. Well, we did. We were all laughing but you were also 55:25 stormy did try to drill and Kyle tried to drill a little bit too. Well, you were the only one who had any kind of muscle. I mean, if you take a look at Jim That boy is rip. You know, he's got the biceps. He's got the deltoid. Okay, so the true story here is that stormy and Kyle were too drunk the drill 55:48 that's really where the story but go ahead pick it up. And I was here just playing catch up at this point. 55:54 me he really had the up to it, but so sorry. So that one, that drill didn't work. 56:00 gap. And lo and behold, jack daniels didn't have just one like 1895 drill. They had two drills from 1895. And increase comes marching up with this, this second drill, but this one even looks older. You could tell it they haven't been using. It's got dust on it, and the bit is even more were down. Yeah. 56:23 You're absolutely right, sir. And he gets in. Yeah, Jim's going along. And that won't get stuck in there. So, yeah, 56:31 but so yeah, so Yo, jack daniels two artifacts. That's what we're really good part though. Where we're drinking it got in we're finally got in. And then we start drinking when there were like, how many barrels of wind up tapping we end up tapping like five better three, right? I remember five. Well, okay. And we and actually, Jim, I don't know if you know this, but the barrel that we like the most. They actually bought look for a charity that I support. The Kentucky brain injury Alliance. I could 57:00 The Brain Injury alliance in Kentucky and in the home ride foundation for for vets. So they end up selling it. 57:09 So since we've just beaten up jack daniels a little bit, no, not really just there to tell everybody what happened once we got a sip 57:19 of either the first or second barrel and and it looks at you, Fred and he said, Fred, what would you get this? Or maybe it was storming you said I can't remember who said it, but yeah, no, I definitely said it was like mid 90s or something. I thought it was 9292 57:38 good memory. But it was it was like an incredible complicated whiskey. I've got a bottle of it in here in the office somewhere. But it is I still you know, jack daniels gets gets a bad rap for, you know, for just kind of being in every day like mixer with Coke. But you know, that's what pays the bills. The fact is, I 58:00 They have some incredible barrels in there. And if if you can get a single if you can drink straight from the jack daniels barrels, and I'd put that whiskey up against anything and Kentucky, there's a lot of great whiskey in those warehouses. You know, what's really interesting? Is it for people who haven't been to jack daniels. 58:19 I think the weather actually helps them. Because it's almost like a little tropical rain forest back there. I mean, it's just so humid. You know, you can't help but think whatever this whiskey is sitting in is not going to pick up whatever is in that barrel. Take a part of it. And that's where the magic happens. Right. Yeah. I guess a question for you about humidity in general. I mean, what's that actually doing? Do you think to barrels? I mean, Ryan was who couldn't be on the show tonight. He's one of our other co host. He was talking to like barometric pressure, like, does this humidity help with something like that? Well, you know, it's sad. You mentioned 59:00 barometric pressure because I got a buddy. His name is Paul mentor. 59:04 He is a rum distiller in Key West Florida. First first legal rum. And he 59:13 basically plays that barometric pressure. 59:17 And that's when he distills is wrong with the pressure drops, so he uses the pressure as a part of his game. I think that's really, really interesting. 59:29 But certainly, you know, I don't know how that works in terms of pressure, but I know humidity. Certainly when you add moisture to wood, it swells. 59:40 It opens up the wood. So maybe it brings out more the flavor of the wood into the bourbon 59:47 or the whiskey. Who knows? Well, maybe maybe when you retire from the weather channel, you could go and take a side gig at some of these distilleries and kind of just do more research. I think that whether barrels I think that is simply brilliant. I love that idea. You know, can 1:00:00 I was actually about to say that you know, I'll take 5% that's fine 1:00:05 I think we need to go at this together guys. 1:00:08 We're a team here come on you know Kenny does bottles on whiskey so you know that's there is that pretty impressive right there? Yeah, yeah he's there they're making a go at it it's called the pursuit series and now he's going to send you a few bottles and that right Kenny? twist mom we can make it happen 1:00:26 So Jim, man, I gotta tell you 1:00:30 the just the bourbon world. It it does need a face and whether you know we need we need someone who can be the bourbon face and the weather world. Are you up for it? willing to take that channel chat channel challenge, you know as I kind of get a little bit older and you know all the young kids start taking over in the in the weather world. 1:00:56 Maybe it's time to maybe it's time to switch guns to bourbon. Let's do it. 1:01:00 first things I have to tell you it's been it's been a real pleasure. You know, just being your friend but also having you on.

And you can just spend that as saying like, Well, actually, I got a line over here. You know, they may want to advertise. Oh, contracts good. I was about to say I was like, this is your opportunity right now to say like, what's your go to because all of a sudden the contracts going to start rolling in? Yeah. Well, we're going to hold off on that. 1:02:03 Put together kind of a magic case. And something will arrive in the mail and we'll we'll see what happens. Right. And I know Fred certainly been trying to get me to try some different things. 1:02:13 And they're good there. When a package comes in the mail for Fred, it's like, whew, we need to go here. You know, 1:02:20 and but you need to do from now on, send me the package and tell me what you're sending me before you put it out on social media. Because once it goes out on social media, then you can't get it anymore. You know, I need to get McKenna right now. Because of you. You know how hard it is to get McKenna right now, America fact he kills all of us. I mean, no, ill will feed people. 1:02:48 Thank you, brother. Thanks, guys. Cheers, brother. So my suddenly Yeah, man. Thank you, Jim. Thank you so much for coming on the show today. You know, Fred, as well for for coming on and making sure that you know, able to bring 1:03:00 Jim, because I think we've got a lot of great information in regards of not only just Jim's past and his history, his family kind of having a connection to the distributing business as well. And really what, you know, I guess how whiskies making an impact in your life now too, as well.

Plata þáttarins er plata the The Who - Who´s next frá árinu 1971. Who´s next er fimmta stúdíóplata The Who og hefur að geyma lög sem gítarleikari sveitarinnar, Pete Townshend samdi fyrir einskonar multi-media rock óperu sem hann náði ekki að klára á sínum tíma eins og hann vildi. Fólkið í kringum hann og sér í lagi umboðsmaður The Who, Kit Lambert, skildi ekki alveg hvað hann var að reyna að gera og á endanum gafst hann upp á verkefninu sem hann kallaði „Lifehouse“, og leyfði söngvaranum vini sínum, Roger Daltrey að velja lög á úr óperunni, á plötuna sem fékk nafnið Who´s Next. Plötuna hljóðritaði sveitin með aðstoð upptökustjórans Glyn Johns. Það var byrjað á laginu Won´t get fooled again sem hefur alla tíð átt fast sæti á tónleikaprógrammi sveitarinnar. Það lag var tekið upp í upptökubíl Rolling Stones en restin af plötunni var tekin upp í Olympic hljóðverinu í London. Fyrir utan það að platan er frábær þá er hún líka frumkvöðlaplata en frumstæðir syntheseiserar leika stóru rullu inni í mögnuðu rokkinu, og Pete Townshend sem stjórnaði þeim gerði það mjög skemmtilega, sér í lagi í lögunum Won´t get fooled again og Baba O´Rilsey sem bæði voru gefin út á smáskífum. Platan sló umsvifalaust í gegn þegar hún kom út í ágúst 1971 og er af mörgum talin ein besta rokkplata allra tíma. Hún hefur verið endurútgefin nokkrum sinnum og stundum með fleiri lögum sem áttu að vera í Lifehouse rokkóperunni.

The why establishes urgency, reason, purpose, passion, and a feeling of resilience. Great leaders are thinking about the decisions they're making not because they want to grow an organization, but because they want to grow people. WHO: Who is your leadership going to affect? Who is responsible for making sure your decisions as a leader are being followed through? WHAT: What is a win? WHEN: Set a deadline. A leader that doesn't give their teams deadlines is a leader that is running around with all loose ends. HOW MUCH: Define how much money, time, who is in charge of following up, and set a deadline.

Who is Jonah Berger? Jonah Berger is a marketing professor at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania and bestselling author of Contagious: Why Things Catch On and Invisible Influence: The Hidden Forces that Shape Behavior. Dr. Berger has spent over 15 years studying how social influence works and how it drives products and ideas to catch on. He’s taught Wharton’s top ranked online course, published dozens of articles in top-tier academic journals, consulted for a variety of Fortune 500 companies, and popular outlets like the New York Times and Harvard Business Review often cover his work. What is Contagious? Contagious is all about the science of word of mouth, lots of companies from big to small want to see things catch on and we see examples of things that catch on. However, underneath that there is a question — Why? Why do somethings catch on, and other fail? It’s not about high budgets or even having the best product. It’s about Word of mouth and social influence. Advertising and paid media is expensive and not very effective. Dollar spent on word of mouth, goes 10 times as far as a dollar spent on advertising. How do we get people talking about and sharing our stuff? We often think it’s luck, or chance but it’s not, it’s a science behind it. We’ve looked at thousands of online content, tens of thousands of brands, millions of purchases across US and the world. The same 6 ‘STEPPS’, keep coming up again and again. The ‘STEPPS’ Framework (credit: unruly.co): 1. Social Currency People care about how they look to others. They want to seem smart, cool, and in-the-know. So be sure to find the inner-remarkability (e.g. Will it Blend?) and make people feel like insiders. 2.Triggers Top-of-mind means tip-of-tongue. So consider the context and grow your habitat so that people are frequently triggered to think about your product or idea. Rebecca Black’s ‘Friday’ music video is a great example of this. 3.Emotion When we care, we share. Emotional content often goes viral, so focus on feelings rather than function. And kindle the fire using high arousal emotions. 4.Public Built to show, built to grow. The more public something is, the more likely people will imitate it. Design products and initiatives that advertise themselves (e.g. red bottom shoes) and create some visible behavioural residue. 5.Practical Value News you can use. Useful things get shared. So highlight incredible value and expertise so that people can easily pass it on. 6.Stories Information travels under what seems like idle chatter. Stories are vessels — so build a Trojan Horse. Create a narrative or story that people want to tell which carries your idea along for the ride. Each of these explains why people talk and share and why all sorts of products and services catch on.  What is the best way to gain social currency at a time when people like Instagram Influencers are on the rise? Much more important than the technology, it’s the psychology. One platform is not more important than the other, it’s about understanding why people are sharing on platforms. Companies change platforms because they hear that’s where their users are. Foursquare was big, then it wasn’t. Vine was a big thing, then it wasn’t. It’s really easy to focus on the technology, but to be successful, you need to focus on the psychology.  Why do some accounts do better than others? It’s not about having social connections, it’s about getting those connections to share and engage with your content. To get social currency: the better you make someone look, the more likely they are to talk about it and share it.  Example: Please don’t tell — a hidden bar in NYC. ‘Please don’t tell’ is a NYC bar hidden inside of a hotdog restaurant. You can have whatever hotdog you want, but at the back of the restaurant, there’s a rotary dial phone, when you pick up the phone you dial the number and if you’re lucky and they have space the back door of the phone booth will open and you’ll be led into a secret bar.  What’s interesting about ‘Please don’t tell’ is that when we think about Marketing and communications, we think it’s about telling people how great we are, we think it’s really important to be really out there. In some cases however, secrets are interesting — think about the last time someone told you a secret and told you not to tell anyone else. What’s the first thing you do with that information, you tell someone! Having access to information that not everyone has, makes you look smart. You look in the know. Social Media and Instagram Influencers focus heavily on their lifestyle of flying first class, taking pics with celebs, on vacation. Nobody posts about being in the office working on Excel spreadsheets! Why? Because it doesn’t make them look good.  Two things are important: People like sharing things that make them look good. To get people to share our stuff, we need to make them look good. Accounts too often focus on the user having a good time, but there’s no incentive for a viewer to share that information. Nobody cares about you, they care about how it makes them look.  Interesting Example: Beyonce released an album a couple of years ago. No advertising, all she did was put a picture up of it on Instagram. Why? She knew how her followers would be the first people to tell everyone else about it. Being ahead of the curve, makes you look smart.  If you go to YouTube and look at the first comment, it literally says: “First” (I was there before everyone). It’s not about us, it’s about our audience, how can we make them look smart? When we give people social currency, they talk about us, but we get to come along for the ride.  The importance of Triggers: All of the above is about talking about things we like. However, there are many things we like, that we don’t talk about. It’s like having restaurant in the are you love in your town or city where you love the food, and it’s great, you really like it, but you don’t go because you forget about it. However, if someone says: “Hey! Let’s go to that Restaurant” you often don’t hesitate. The challenge is that you don’t think about that particular restaurant.  70% of purchase is consideration. Most people only say what’s at the top of their mind they are filling voids in conversation, so they talk about all sorts of things such as the weather, what they’re doing on the weekend, their kids, etc. Why? Because this is at the top of their mind. However, what we need to trigger is what’s going to get people to talk about us. Therefore, Triggers are little environmental reminders that remind users of a product or service that isn’t there.  For example, when we say: “PB and”… you think “J” as in Jelly. When I say “Rum and…”, you think “coke”. When you watch a movie, you often eat popcorn. These two things have no correlation other than a complimentary association. The question we need to ask ourselves is, what are our triggers? What’s reminds people of our product or service.  All companies have a great message, but will the message get people to think about the company? If people like you, but they don’t think about you, it’s going going to matter very much.  There’s “Kit Kat and Coffee”, there’s “Popcorn and Movies”, there’s “PB & J”. However, what about a SaaS Platform that’s not tangible — how do you create Triggers for these? The principles are exactly the same. When thinking about Triggers, there’s 4 main questions that need answering: Who? — Who’s the audience? Who should think about our product or service? This is target demographics. When? When do we want people to think about us? It’s unlikely that people will think about us all the time, so if you’re a service for example, you need to ask yourself: “When do I want people to think about me?” or better yet, “What problem are they having where my product can be the peanut butter service”.  What’s around at that time? How can we create that link? A study was done at Stanford where we wanted to get under graduates to eat more fruits. Undergrads say they want to eat more fruits and vegetables, but they just don’t do it.  So they tried two slogans: Live the healthy way, eat 5 fruits and veggies a day: traditional nice sounding slogan that many companies would use.  Each and every dining hall tray needs 5 fruits and veggies a day.  Interestingly, people liked the first slogan, but didn’t really like the second slogan. We showed them the font and slogan a few times and over a two week study, we looked at the fruit and veggie consumption and found something interesting. The first slogan (they liked), sounded very good, but didn’t change behaviour. The second slogan (which they related a 1/10) and didn’t like actually made them eat 25% more fruits and veg a day.  Why? We followed the 4 questions: Who? Students at Stanford University.  What’s the when? We don’t want them to think about fruits and veggies all the time, just when the behaviour is taking place.  What’s in the environment at these times? A dining tray. How did we create a link to it? That silly slogan. So when we think of a SaaS slogan, or if you’re an influencer looking to increase your following, then think about the “when” — i.e when you want people to think about you, and think about what will be around at that time. What’s the sense? What’s that tray? What’s missing? This will help identify our triggers for us to come to mind at the right time.  What’s the secret to making virality a regular occurrence? The reason why this question was asked is because after the ALS Ice Bucket challenge, many people tried to “copycat” actions that were all for a good cause, however this was to no avail, even though it followed the exact same model as the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge — so why did the Ice Bucket Challege work and why didn’t the copycat versions work? Jonah mentioned that we think things are the same, however, we don’t actually understand why they’re working. Two things may look very similar, however actually may be quite different on the inside. What’s important is the Inside (what’s driving the behaviour, but not how it looks). After the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, Jonah received a flood of emails with ideas from organisations on ideas to go viral like spraying ketchup and mustard on each other (not the worst idea he’s heard), for a good cause! Too often companies think that if they just copy what people did to be successful then it will also be successful. Doing the same thing as someone done before isn’t going to be enough. Think about if someone jumped from behind the wall and spooked you, yeah it may work well the first time, but if you do it again and again, it’s not going to be scary, because it’s not surprising, novel or different and therefore it’s not going to work in the same way.  The key thing is why. Figure out why something is successful and how you can make something new, interesting or novel. People often talk about having 1000 true fans, but how many people do you need to start a trend like Movember? Is there a minimum amount of people required to make something catch on?   It’s not about the number, no matter wether this is 1,000 or 2,000. Going viral, isn’t even the goal. When you want to create a “viral video” you work with an ad agency, often at times they go out and pay a bunch of people to watch your content so that they can say it went viral.  However, the goal isn’t to get 1000 people to watch your stuff, it’s to get 1000 people to share and engage with your stuff.  Example: Warby Parker Warby Parker often got questions about various topics and they realised they didn’t have the space on Twitter to answer the questions properly. So they started creating videos. The videos were getting between 100–150 views, and this doesn’t seem much. It’s definitely a far figure from the 10 million views a viral video would get, however, each person sharing it and getting 150 views is much more powerful than the piece of content shared 1m times.  The goals not to be a flash in the pan, the goal is each one for each one. The goal is get each person to share our content. Anything your customer does on your platform is an opportunity to bake word of mouth into the service.  At a time on society where attention is so limited, how do we increase sharing and engagement as we go into 2018? It’s important to understand that the principles of Contagious were around way before the times of Social Media. Often at times users think that 80–95% of word of mouth is done online, when in fact only 7% of the world of mouth actually is. People will always share what will make them look good. Any opportunity when a user is on your platform is your opportunity (irrespective of time) is your opportunity to give them a reason to tell others about your product or service. What would you say are the top 3 latest hacks that companies need to implement going into 2018? The science is the same. Start with understanding your customers. What do they need? Why are they doing what they’re doing and use that to build word of mouth. The second part is actually understand the “STEPPS”. What’s the social currency that will bring your brand for the ride, how can you put a trigger in the environment that reminds people about your product/service.  How can you make your product more observable? What’s an emotional story that users can carry along for the ride? Following the 6 STEPPS in Contagious will really help with word of mouth. Last but not least, be authentic. It’s really easy to talk about us, but it’s much more harder to talk to our customers in a way they’ll understand. Brands that do this very well are very successful.

In the previous episode, we discussed two major emotions that can hold you back from living out your ideal lifestyle. Now that you’re prepared for what is to come, we need to discuss the most important question you will encounter along the journey to lifestyle freedom. What is important to me?! It’s both extremely simple and extremely complicated. We all seem to know some of the things that are important to us such as maintaining our fitness and cultivating meaningful relationships. However, very few of us have actually explored some of the most basic human needs and figured out the type of actions we need to take in order to thrive in those aspects of life. Today, this is what we’ll be discovering together. Discovering Your Ideal Lifestyle: Imagine that you’ve woken up one day with the ability to do absolutely whatever you wanted. You have no monetary restrictions, all of your friends and family are ready to join you in your adventures at a moment’s notice, and you are able to travel anywhere with ease. What would you do? It’s a difficult question to answer. You may not be able to answer that question because you have never considered lifestyle freedom a possibility before. Since we were born, we have been surrounded by societal trends such as 40-hour workweeks, flawless bodies that require extensive gym visits, and family lives that are more stressful than fulfilling. Here’s the truth: It doesn’t have to be this way! In life, you are your own boss. You control what you do, how you go about it, when you do it, where you do it, and who you do it with. You may be thinking, Natalie, I do have monetary restrictions and other things holding me back from living my ideal lifestyle! I understand you completely. While you may not be able to sit down right now, map out the rest of your life, and make it happen by snapping your fingers, you do have the opportunity to make the choice to start moving into a place of freedom. Make that choice right here and right now. Take the leap with me and begin your journey to a life of freedom by figuring out what it is that you truly want. Step 1: Dream, Dream, Dream Remember the question I asked you earlier about your ideal day? I want you to answer it right now. Most importantly, I need you to answer it as specifically as you possibly can. For example, this is how I envision my perfect day: "I wake up in the morning with no alarm and no phone next to my bed and I wake up naturally. I turn to my lover Mr. Josh and I give him lots of kisses, hugs and cuddles. And then little Kayla, who is not so little anymore comes around my side of the bed in for a cuddle, who just snuffles her nose into my hand and I just love, love, love my little white German Shepherd to death. And then I roll out of bed and I roll out the yoga mat and I will do about 20-30 minutes of yoga with Adriene. I recently did a Facebook live about her and I think she is fabulous. She has a free Youtube channel called Yoga with Adriene. I just love her yoga. She’s funny, she’s joyous, she’s grateful and she doesn’t take life too seriously and it’s just a pleasure to do yoga with her. And then I will roll into anywhere from a 5-15 or 20 minute meditation. I’m working my way up into doing more of that and by this stage by the way, before I’ve started my yoga I’ve thrown open the curtains and right outside our windows this gorgeous creamy white rose which is just in full bloom right now. So it’s the first thing that I see in the morning with the sunlight coming up and all the trees and the gorgeous greenery around our lawn and over to the hills in the distance. So it’s a pretty spectacular way to start the morning and given that it’s spring here right now, the sun is already shining on me. So when I’m on my yoga mat I’m getting heated up by the warmth of the sun. And then I have a lovely hot shower which I am so grateful for. And I go through to the kitchen and typically make breakfast with Josh and either do a green smoothie with something really awesome from my garden like kale or spinach and then strawberries, blueberries, banana and coconut water or I go and grab the fresh eggs from our chicken and I make omelets or scrambled eggs or poached eggs with avocado and smoked salmon or bacon because breakfast is my favorite meal of the day. And then and only then, do I actually head over to my laptop and I either set up in the lounge or in the study or out in the coworking barn and I start working in my most important action of the day which I have typically written up the night before or in that moment into our project life spreadsheet and we always try and balance this out across the week between the 8 sort of areas of life that are really important." So that’s just the start of my Perfect Day and I am living it right now which is pretty fantastic. I want you to be able to describe the type of room that you are waking up in. I want you to be able to describe the food that you are eating throughout the day. I need you to be able to envision the exact temperature on the thermostat of the home you are living in. Why am I asking you to be able to state the exact temperature of your house? While it may not seem important, specificity is key to designing your ideal lifestyle. In fact, one study conducted by Gary Latham and Edwin Locke found that 90 percent of people who set challenging, specific goals were able to actually meet them rather than those who had simple goals with no direction. No matter how silly it may seem, think about every possible angle of your perfect day and write it down. You may not need every detail but you will be better prepared for the next step. Step 2: Determine What Matters Most Now that you have a better idea of what you would like to be doing with your time, take a look at your list and go through the 5 W’s: Who- Who was it that you wanted to spend your time with? Did you list your spouse during your perfect day vision? Did some of your old friends crop up while you were daydreaming? Review your notes and come up with a list of the people who appeared most. What- What were you doing during your ideal day? Were you working from home rather than in an office? Were you working out in your own yoga studio? These actions will help you to identify some of the major areas that you want to focus on in the future. When- When were you the most active? On the other hand, when were you experiencing the most relaxation? You may find out that you are currently working when you want to be relaxing and relaxing when you are most energetic. Where- Did you travel? What type of house were you in? What did nature outside of your living area look like? As the saying goes, “if you don’t like where you are, move. You are not a tree.” You may not be happy with where you are currently living and this daydream session will tell you exactly that. Why- Why are you doing the things that you are doing? If this is your perfect day, you must care about the actions you are taking. Evaluate each action you have written down and ask yourself whether or not you care about the thing you are doing, if it adds value to your life, and if it helps you get towards where you want to be. Make sure that you have done this thoroughly. Each category helps you to better determine what you will be working towards once you’ve decided to live a life of freedom. Step 3: Come Up With a Rough Life Sketch Take what you’ve collected over the past few steps and compile it into a rough plan. For example, let’s pretend that I’ve come up with my own life vision where I am living in France, running my own clothing business during the day from my large, well-lit apartment, and spending the majority of my time with my friends during the night. Although this a brief example, I’ve identified who I want to spend my time with, where I want to be, when I want to be doing things, and what I am doing with my time. Why am I doing this? Clearly, I’ve crafted this plan because I truly want to live in France, I love the idea of running a clothing business from home, and I want to be spending my time with friends who care about me. This is by no means a list that will help you to reach said goals and lead a free life. Instead, this is the foundation upon which you will build your ideal life. In episode 3, we will be discussing how to categorize and task out these goals in order to assure complete domination over your ideal lifestyle. And if this is kind of opening your mind up to the possibilities of what you really want to be doing with your life but you don’t feel like you are close to that or if you are actually just wanting to rock out 2018 then you are in for a treat because on November 29th, I am running a LIVE online workshop called “Plan Your Ideal Freedom Year!”.

Listen first to part 1, episode #59 so you’ll have a complete and cohesive system to help you decide what to write about, how to write it, and how to use your book to market and grow your business.   Episode Discussions Book publishing on Amazon - tools, tips, and money-saving secrets Dealing with trolls and one-star reviews Structuring your table of contents Tips on effectively titling your book 4 questions to help ensure you’re writing the right book and what leads to writing the wrong book How to profitably presell and market your book on Amazon Takeaways from Tim Ferriss and The 4-Hour Work Week Leveraging interviews into new clients and prospects Analyzing titles and subtitles and how they should correlate Tony Robbins, The Wizard of Oz, and Tesla What to do if you want to change the original topic of your book, even after you tell people what it's about Writing a description prelaunch and before you know all the details The serious problem of being ashamed of your published book Converting readers into customers and using your book as “bait” How to be confident about publishing your book A step-by-step process to getting a rockstar promotional partner A pep talk to get you motivated to start writing your book today   5:16 You can pre-sell your book on Amazon without a website as long as you have a cover and a description.   10:25 4 questions to ask your interviewee to make sure you write the right book: Who? - Who is the best person to read this book What? - What is this book going to be about? Is it properly titled? Why? - Why does your perfect reader care? Two reasons: 1. This book solves problems 2. It delivers results. When you talk to clients, look for language that triggers them. What's next? - What do you want your readers to do next?   22:26 Before finishing your book: Talk to people Leverage those conversations into new clients, prospects, and promotional partners Ask the 7-magic word question at the end of the interview even if they're a leader in the industry…   25:17 Trevor's client, Lisa Chastain, made at least $60K while figuring out what her book was about.  Within 24 hours it was a #1 bestseller in 4 countries.   26:09 Preselling and free marketing via Amazon How Trevor's wife published her book and made money: Solidified a title and subject Created the cover (title and description) Listed book for preorder on Amazon (without starting it) Amazon will market for you internationally as a Hot New Release and email people who are searching for certain terms (problems, results). One reader booked consulting sessions, purchased programs, and referred more customers to her generating around $30K total.   28:25 If the right person reads your book, they'll want to work with you.   30:14 "Your book is bait." Provide value to people by giving them your best content Have a path that leads them to your products and services   32:19 How to write the description — prelaunch: It won't come from you. Ask people what they want and give it to them. Post on your favorite social media channel and ask if anyone wants to join your book launch team. Test it and write it the best you can. “Can I send you chapter one and see what you think?” Develop the cover, title, and description based on feedback from you book launch team.   32:53 "My first review on my first book was a one-star review. It hurt my soul!"   33:41 "Most people write a book in silence without anyone knowing. If somebody says they don't like it, what ends up happening is they get ashamed of it."   34:14 How to be confident about publishing your book: By implementing this research process, you know without doubt that people want your content. Your ideal audience has already told you they care, like it, want it and have preordered.   36:04 "I want my book to attract a certain type of person, my favorite client, and repel all the yahoos."   37:23 The wrong sequence leads to writing the wrong book.   37:39 Trevor’s ‘declaration’ challenge to Adam Are you going to be an example for your audience, put your money where your mouth is, take advice and say you're publishing a book? I'm afraid I'm going to have to when you put me on the spot like that.   38:10 The last ‘7-magic word’ question to ask when you're interviewing a prospect or potential client for your book: "Would you like some help with that?" -  If they do, book a time.   Follow up question: Who else do you know? (asking for referrals) Remember: You're not trying to sell them. You're there to really honor them and discover what’s making them tick. They'll appreciate you and see that you care. This is a strategy that never goes away.   40:56 How to land the promotional partner you want Go to a networking event or conference to see incredible people speak. Bring your journal and take great notes. Wait until the end of the presentation when people line up to talk to speaker. To set yourself apart, honor them and say, "Thank you for that presentation. It was amazing. I learned some great stuff I want to implement. But I have a question/favor to ask. I'm writing a new book about ______ and you would be phenomenal. Can I potentially interview you for my book?"   43:32 Main takeaways Make a declaration that you're writing a book Read The Big Money Book   Bonus tip: record your interviews. They can be used in your book or given as bonuses for your book.   47:51 “Trying to do something is failure until you've achieved it.”   48:58 If you've ever had the dream, goal, vision of one day writing a book of your very own… Today is likely the very best day to start. In fact, there's probably no better time than right now so make that declaration, get it out there in the world and share your thoughts, insights, wisdom, and stories. There's definitely people who would benefit from it and who would want to hear from you." – Adam Erhart   Mentioned in this Episode: TrevorCrane.com Big Money With Your Book Without Selling a Single Copy Print copy - (just pay shipping) Free digital download version   Click here to subscribe via iTunes Modern Marketing on Stitcher Modern Marketing on Pocket Casts

In this episode, #1 Bestselling Author and Highly Acclaimed business & Entrepreneur Expert, Mel Abraham, talks about your value because if you don't get value right no one sees you, people don't have interest in you and there is no sale. However, if you get it right, you're seen by your marketplace and the potential folks trying to hire you, people are curious and want to know more, and ultimately they buy. Here are the 3 things that you need to know: Transformation drives value Process gives confidence Results create certainty The Value Articulator This framework allows you to articulate your value so that you are able to speak to your audience in a succinct way. Who: Who do you help? This is our market. What: What results do you help people get? How: How do you help? This is the process. Problems: When you talk about who and what together, it's really about the problems you solve. Transformation: It's between what and who.

Wealth Beyond Limits

In this week’s episode of Talking Trading NLP Life Coach Rik Schnabel shares key mindset factors to create wealth beyond limits. Rik Schnabel Wealth creation starts in the mind and in this interview we discuss the power of imagination, the law of expectation, the role of action and the power of passion. Imagination Imagination leads us to be wealthy when we embrace it. Einstein said “Imagination is more important than knowledge’, and Einstein himself used to imagine riding on a beam of light through space to help him uncover the theory of relativity. Law of Expectation Ralph Waldo Emerson said ‘Man becomes what he thinks about the most.’ If we are going to become a multi millionaire we need to know how do they walk, talk, think, and act. One of the best questions you can ask yourself when you are starting out on the road to Wealth Creation is WHO? Who knows how to create incredible wealth and who is willing to mentor me? ACTION Cary Grant said ‘I acted like Cary Grant for so long that I became him.’ A survey of the richest and most famous of celebrities found that every single one of them admitted to wanting more CONFIDENCE. We often spend our adult life building the confidence we lost as children and as adults we need to move ourselves into an I CAN PATTERN. PASSION Passion starts out as a stranger before it becomes our best friend. Be brave enough to enter its castle, there may be dragons at the door, crocodiles in the moat, but get across and take a leap of faith to discover home.

M: Hey, did you hear about that meteorite that hit Russia about a year ago? W: Yeah, of course. It was all over the news. M: Did you see the reports of people claiming it marked the end of the world? W: Ha ha. Yeah, and some people apparently yelled that America was attacking! M: In the beginning I heard that almost 200 people were injured, but now I see the real number was close to 1,000! Which is weird, because the meteorite supposedly broke into a bunch of fairly small pieces after entering the earth's atmosphere, and mostly hit buildings or non-human things. W: That's because people were injured by the debris. M: I still don't understand how there could be 1,000 injuries, though. W: I recently watched an interview with the head physicist from the National Science Museum in New York. He explained that people first saw the light of the meteorite and, logically, walked to the window to see what it was. But, light travels faster than sound, so when they reached the window, they were then hit by the shockwave of the blast. Boom: Glass in face. M: Ooooohhhh~~~ That makes so much sense! But the fragments were still pretty small. Could they really create such a powerful blast? W: It's kind of scary to think, but yeah, they can. Little fragments can hit with the force of a bullet, but the 20-meter rock that hit Russia struck with the force of small atomic bomb! M: Wow! No wonder the dinosaurs went extinct! What are we going to do if one of those things hits us, and it's even bigger? Shouldn't we be building rockets or something to blast them out of the sky before they can hit the earth? W: Well, according to that physicist, rockets wouldn't be fast enough to destroy anything that has already entered the earth's atmosphere. M: Then what can we do? Anything? W: Maybe if we put satellites around earth's orbit, and we can somehow redirect the trajectory of a meteorite before it gets pulled in by earth's gravity. Since dangerous meteorites have a lot of metal in them, one idea would be to use giant magnets to redirect the trajectory. A small change in the asteroid's path early on in space can cause a huge shift in it's trajectory later on. M: Use magnets? Sounds impossible to me! But science sure is interesting and fun, don't you think? (Written by Sadie Cornforth) 2. やさしい英語会話 (205) Time Traveling Troubles (1) W: Hey, I've finally done it! I've built a fully-functioning time machine! Hahahaha! Now I can rule the world! But first, let's take a test run. Hmm… let's see… Yesterday around 2 in the afternoon should be good. I was at lunch then, so I shouldn't run into myself and potentially cause the destruction of the universe as we know it! OK. So, I just put the watch on, and turn this dial, and press this button… (Time traveling noises) W: Did I do it? Did it work!? Wait this doesn't look my laboratory. M: (With cowboy accent) Hey, can I help ya there, little lady? W: What! Who… Who are you? Where am I? M: Well, yer in the fine state of Texas! And I'm sheriff of this here town. W: Great… just where I always wanted to go, Texas (sigh). M: Excuse me, Miss. Were ya just disrespecting our great state? (pulls out six-shooter and cocks the gun) W: No, no, no. Of course not, my good sir! Um… Can you tell me what year it is? M: Well, it's 1865 and has been for 'bout five months. Um… are ya doing OK there, little lady? Did ya bump yer head or somethin'? W: Yes, yes, something along those lines… Darn, I really thought I had it this time, though I guess I did travel back in time, just not where or when I had thought. Man, how am I going to get back home? M: Hey, why ya wearin' such strange clothes? W: Oh… I… M: Well, it don't matter. Come on and get up on this here horse, and I'll take ya back to town and we can have the doc take a look at ya. W: Get on the horse? M: Yes, ma'am. (Written by Matthew Bola) 3. やさしい英語会話 (206) Time Traveling Troubles (2) W: Um… I think I'll just walk. M: Now really, ma'am, I must insist. It's a three-hour ride back, and there's all sorts of snakes, and coyotes, and a bunch of other stuff ya don't wanna be runnin' into. W: But… I've never been on a horse! M: What? Well, I'll be darned. Ya must be worth a pretty penny if you've only ridden in carriages yer whole life! I can tell by yer talk you've been brought up real proper too! W: What da ya mean “worth a pretty penny.” I'm not an object, you know! M: Well, yer a woman, ain't ya? W: I… I'm not going to even begin that conversation with a person such as yourself. Huh, I thought people in this time period would be a lot more polite… and… and less sexist. M: Hey, I done offered ya a ride. Now come on. Lets get goin' before the sun sets and we get stuck out here. W: All right, fine. Hey, wait. I have a time machine! Why don't I just try going back home!? M: A time what? W: Oh, oh. I hope I don't end up in a worse place than this. (sound of wolves) M: Hey, quiet! I think I can hear some coyotes comin'. W: And on that note, I'll take the risk. Well, good luck Mr. Sherriff. Bye! (Time machine noises) M: What? Where'd she go? I was gonna take her fer my wife! (Time machine noises) W: Ugh, wow, time traveling really makes ya nauseous. I wonder where I ended up, though anything is better than being out in the middle of nowhere with coyotes and a sexist sheriff. M: Hello there, good sister, where dost thou come from? (Written by Matthew Bola) 4. やさしい英語会話 (207) Time Traveling Troubles (3) W: Aww, man, here we go again. Um… Hello there… brother? I comest from-eth another village-eth, a far, far away village. M: Thy talk is so strange, so the village must be far indeed. W: You have no idea! M: Thou must be tired, weary traveler. Follow me back to town and we can accommodate you with some bread and shelter. W: Thank you. I AM actually starving. By the way, could you tell me which town exactly we are going to? M: Of course! We are on our way to Salem, a most noble and peaceful town. W: Salem… Salem… why does that name ring a bell? M: I should hope thou recognize the name Salem. It is renowned for being a town of good God-fearing people. W: God-fearing people?… It's right on the tip of my tongue, but I can't figure out where I've heard that name before. M: But before entering town, I'll have to ask thou a few simple questions. They're but precautions to protect us from the devil and his evil ways. W: OK. Shoot. M: Why dost thou wear such strange clothes? They look almost like the clothes a witch would wear. W: First, I'm wearing the normal clothes of people in my time?um, I mean VILLAGE?wear. And second, I thought witches wore black dresses and pointy hats. M: Yes, but they CAN disguise themselves easily, and indeed they love to take on such seductive forms such as thine. W: Somehow I don't think that was really a compliment. M: Oh, no! Why did I not see it before!? Thy speech, thy clothes, thy looks, surely thou art a witch! W: Ohhhh, the Salem witch trials. Ah!

Storytelling is one of those buzz words that is guaranteed to make me perk up my ears! I meet dozens of people every day on my travels and I am always trying to figure out the best way to tell my story. Today's guest on the Art of Adventure Podcast is the founder of the world's leading school for business storytelling, Get Storied. I first encountered Michael Margolis a couple years back when I was just starting the Art of Adventure blog, and I needed to figure out how to write a good bio (not too braggy, and not apologizing for who I am). Then, while in grad school, I had several hours a day of time where I was peering into an electron microscope, so of course I got really into listening to The Moth, and Porchlight Storytelling Podcasts. Michael has a really interesting back story about how he became a story teller including up and moving to a new continent from Switzerland when he was a nine.  He turned to storytelling to help overcome his fear of social rejection. Make sure you listen close to find out the storytelling principle behind Michaels "Chocolate secret", how sharing that he thinks chocolate is a food group encourages people to connect with him online (if you love chocolate like Michael and I, you should check out my search for the worlds best chocolate). This episode is for adventurous entrepreneurs, digital nomads, authors, speakers, coaches, businesses with an online presence, or you simply want to get your message out to people in a way they can relate to. Quotes: "Talk about what you are most curious about" - Michael Margolis "We love passionate people"- Michael Margolis "Speak from your place of inquiry" - Michael Margolis "Remind your audience that they were right all along" - Michael Margolis "The customer is the hero of your story" - Michael Margolis "Storytelling is the source code of humanity" - Michael Margolis "You can only take people as far as you have gone yourself" - Michael Margolis "Everyone wants to know: are you selling to me or are you helping me?" - Michael Margolis "Consider this: Before any business meeting, you have been Googled"- Michael Margolis "Adventure is collecting experiences as a way to tell the stories we already know" - Michael Margolis "We are experience seeking, storytelling machines" - Michael Margolis "The more adventurous lives we lead, the better stories we can tell" - Michael Margolis "We all have the power to tell stories that change our world" - Michael Margolis What you will learn in this episode: The four Cs of storytelling for business: 1. Character 2. Circumstance 3. Choice 4. Consequences -How storytelling beats your greatest obstacle: disbelief -How to create that "me too" moment - social lubricant -How to write the first sentence in your bio to get people to say "tell me more" -In business storytelling, answer Who, What, Who: Who you are, What you do, Who you serve -How to connect your story with the fire in your belly -How to shape your internal story that you tell yourself -How to talk about yourself beyond bragging and apologizing Mentioned in this episode: Get Storied The world's leading school for business storytelling Believe Me: A Storytelling Manifesto for Change-Makers and Innovators Thanks Michael Margolis!

(皮肉を込めて)参ったな。最悪。 my good sir あなたさま、(この場合は)保安官さま ※男性に対する最高に丁寧な呼びかけ 'bout =about yer =your somethin' =something Did ya bump yer head or somethin'? あんた、頭かなんかぶつけたのかい。 something along those lines そんなところです(something like that) Darn. まったくもう。(Too bad.) ※同じ意味でDamn.という表現が映画などでは使われるが、非常に強い表現なので注意が必要。 it don't matter =it doesn't matter. ※3人称単数にdon'tを用いるのは、現在でもアフリカ系アメリカ人の英語(Ebonics)などで使われることがある。 The Beatlesの"Ticket to Ride"の歌詞"She's got a ticket to ride, but she don't care." は、John Lennonがブラック・ミュージックの雰囲気を出すために用いたと思われる。 the doc =the doctor ※映画Back to the Futureでおなじみの語だが、もともとは医者の先生を指すくだけた表現。 *** Script *** (Slow speed) 02:30-04:55 (Natural speed) 15:15-17:20 Time Traveling Troubles (1) W: Hey, I've finally done it! I've built a fully-functioning time machine! Hahahaha! Now I can rule the world! But first, let's take a test run. Hmm… let's see… Yesterday around 2 in the afternoon should be good. I was at lunch then, so I shouldn't run into myself and potentially cause the destruction of the universe as we know it! OK. So, I just put the watch on, and turn this dial, and press this button… (Time traveling noises) W: Did I do it? Did it work!? Wait this doesn't look my laboratory. M: (With cowboy accent) Hey, can I help ya there, little lady? W: What! Who… Who are you? Where am I? M: Well, yer in the fine state of Texas! And I'm sheriff of this here town. W: Great… just where I always wanted to go, Texas (sigh). M: Excuse me, Miss. Were ya just disrespecting our great state? (pulls out six-shooter and cocks the gun) W: No, no, no. Of course not, my good sir! Um… Can you tell me what year it is? M: Well, it's 1865 and has been for 'bout five months. Um… are ya doing OK there, little lady? Did ya bump yer head or somethin'? W: Yes, yes, something along those lines… Darn, I really thought I had it this time, though I guess I did travel back in time, just not where or when I had thought. Man, how am I going to get back home? M: Hey, why ya wearin' such strange clothes? W: Oh… I… M: Well, it don't matter. Come on and get up on this here horse, and I'll take ya back to town and we can have the doc take a look at ya. W: Get on the horse? M: Yes, ma'am. (Written by Matthew Bola)
