Podcasts about write home about

Today's guests are more than just bandmates. Friends since the first grade -- with matching tattoos to boot -- being founding members of the influential Kansas collective The Get Up Kids has taken Rob Pope and Jim Suptic (along with Matt Pryor and Rob's brother Ryan) to seemingly every corner of the world since their 1995 formation. This year marks the 25th anniversary of their breakthrough sophomore LP Something to Write Home About — an album layered in lovelorn distance and declarations of proving oneself. Back then, Jim and Rob say that getting the album out was a frustrating practice in learning who to trust; at the moment, currently on tour playing the album in full, the pair look at the release as a "coming-of-age" album, one that inspired and launched thousands of bands itself through its heroic melodies and relatable points of view. Recorded backstage at the legendary Great American Music Hall in San Francisco, Jim and Rob discuss the two-sided coin of nostalgia, what inspires them about each other, and why maple syrup isn't always a positive smell. The band's 2LP Something to Write Home About reissue, complete with demos and previously unheard material, is available now via digital platforms, and physically on September 20th. Tour dates and more can be found at thegetupkids.com.

Today's topic is a good one. It's Residential Debt: A Diversified Income Stream to Write Home About, which I love the title. And we're joined by Eric Atlas, Head of US Residential Debt, Man GPM.

This week Shauna and Dan explore the phrase Something to Write Home About. In it, we learn that old-timey writers couldn't call a whale a whale. Bonus: Presidential Prison Dentists, Shauna struggles with geography, and we decide the best oceans - once we figure out what an ocean even is. #BunnyTrails   Copyright 2023 by The Readiness Corner, LLC - All Rights Reserved  

We bring you the second half of "Radio Contest: a Harold Story" (@ 1:30) and hogwash it down with another edition of "Frank Calls with Ken M" (@ 16:51), as Ken looks for work again in Alabama, this time as a private detective.

Unstuck Reports: Celebrity Anxiety And DepressionLife is in the striving, not the arriving.~ Seth SwirskySeth Swirsky is a consultant/coach for media professionals in Beverly Hills, CA. His experience on several levels dealing with celebrity anxiety addresses specific challenges for all of us. A New Haven, Connecticut native, Seth is a self-described "manic expressive," an American pop music songwriter (including the Grammy-nominated "Tell It To My Heart"), an author, a recording artist, a filmmaker, a political writer and a noted baseball memorabilia collector. Listen to hear brief remarks about the artists who performed his songs. He's been there. Seth may already be on your radar if you love pop music. He wrote the #1 smash hit song Tell It To My Heart for Taylor Dayne amongst many other hits for the likes of Smokey Robinson, Celine Dion, Al Green and Olivia Newton-John. Baseball lovers may have read one or all of Seth's three bestselling books, Baseball Letters, Every Pitcher Tells A Story or Something to Write Home About. In addition to baseball, Swirsky is also a huge fan of The Beatles. His full-length documentary, http://geni.us/swirsky (Beatles Stories), was chosen as an Official Selection at the 2011 European Independent Film Festival - considered the Sundance of Europe - and had its world premiere in Paris, France on April 3, 2011. This award was followed by premiering in several notable festivals throughout the country. Beatles Stories was nominated for Best Score for an Indie Film or Documentary at the 2013 Hollywood Music and Media Awards. Seth's Anxiety Conquered - Strategy & TacticsSeth is a delightful person with street experience from his own conflicts with celebrity anxiety. This Episode is a Must Listen for many reasons - not the least of which is Seth's warm good humor and can-do, get-it-done, yet humble and engaging personality. He's a celebrity who manages the different realities of celebrity self-management from fresh perspectives. Seth's Book and PerspectiveNow Swirsky brings his artistry to the psychology field with his unique new self-help book, http://geni.us/swirsky1 (21 Ways to a Happier Depression: A Creative Guide to Getting Unstuck from Anxiety, Setbacks, and Stress), His earthy, engaging observations connect with useful mindset options at the street level beyond the hallowed halls of celebrity detachment. Designed originally as a coffee table art book, 21 Ways offers simple and easily doable ideas for anyone struggling with anxiety and depression. Written in a breezy, conversational style [quite obvious in our conversation], the book is filled with 24 original watercolor pictures by the American artist, Kirsten Tradowsky. Not a linear chapter book or workbook, readers can open to any page at any time for a new idea to help take down their stress level. It's an invigorated, unorthodox opportunity for an instant Reality Reframe. Seth wrote 21 Ways to change your mind. Swirsky, a Dartmouth College graduate with a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology and a thriving Beverly Hills practice says, “I wanted to make this book feel like it's your friend — that, whenever you needed help, it is always there for you.” Swirsky developed these 21 suggestions for alleviating stress because he struggled with panic attacks for many years. The simple tried and true remedies he outlines in the book — which provides applicable self-management for feelings of depression as well — are the same ones he utilized to help himself and his many patients over the years Seth's Comments On His Mindset ToolsI grew up loving music and had jingles on national TV in college [spp-timestamp time="6:16"] Out of the clear blue in the context of great successes anxiety hit me hard [spp-timestamp time="7:28"] That anxiety remained unrelenting, daily for more than 5 years [spp-timestamp...

Matt Pryor is the singer of The Get Up Kids and a big inspiration to me.

I came across the Get Up Kids in 1999 when I was working at WVCW at VCU.  I remember seeing the video for “Action and Action” somewhere and I was taken instantly.  Weezer was on hiatus on the Kids filled that whole in my heart.  I ran out and purchased “Something to Write Home About” […]
