Unplugged and Totally Uncut March 15th

Today Monday March 15th on Unplugged and Totally Uncut... If you are a proud member of the Audible generation then you're probably very familiar with actor George Newbern's golden voice and skills as a voice over talent. He breaks it all down. Being on such a platform while protecting that voice. 11am post https://www.spreaker.com/episode/43897777 It's Monday and that means Pod Crashing! Always excited to introduce you to new podcasts. Bridgett Todd has created one that puts all focus on the women that shaped the internet first with brilliant blogging and now with podcasting.

Stream Thinking: Before With No After

Listen to "Stream Thinking Before With No After" on Spreaker. March 15, 2021 How many of your personal thoughts are tossed? Here then gone. Sometimes you struggle to get them back but it ends up being wasted energy. I’m a stream thinker. Living a free form life. It doesn’t just happen. You have to practice it over and over. One problem. Being a daily writer is a very noisy expectation. No matter what’s put on a page it has the power and ability to reach you many years down the road. I learned this while hosting a podcast that broke down my book One Man’s 1,021 Thoughts. I went back 18 years to see if lessons in life were learned. Then it got extremely dark and too heavy to hold. The moments after 9-11. You lived the day but do you remember life after. Not assumption. Do you remember the emotional rollercoaster that followed? Through daily writing it’s there. I couldn’t handle what the writer was enduring so the journey forced me to break free of the moments. The same is true about the first anniversary of Covid 19. I did everything to keep my inquisitive self from going into the boxes filled with writing journals. I didn’t need to know what the person versus the writer had and continues to live through. The worst fear was being reminded of how far we haven’t grown over the past fifty two weeks. Why would we put ourselves through this mess again and again? The inner voice got too loud. I finally went back to the pages last seen in March of 2020. What I discovered was an emotional middle aged man that didn’t know how to handle losing every job he was associated with. He spoke of the danger, the huge corporations shutting down and how a Covid case had been reported six miles from his home. He questioned God about his or her location. He also wrote that he wasn’t in fear and how much he trusted the universe. The writer then was being heard now. There’s absolutely no need to give permission to your ears for your heart has already heard. Twenty four hours after strolling through the birth days of Covid I openly admit that it wasn’t a mentally safe decision. As people we want to get back to our past to help the self in pain and or question. The truth is. You can’t. Live forward while studying the art of experience. Being a writer is a very noisy job. Don’t let it drown out your favorite songs on the radio.

How Do We

Listen to "How Did We" on Spreaker. March 12, 2021 How often do you wake up completely disconnected from the day? You stare at Google Calendar bewildered by the date. Didn’t we just start the New Year? It’s already spring! How? Maybe it’s just me but Friday’s no longer carry that vibrant fun atmosphere of accomplishment “We did it! Break out the weekend!” As for Monday’s? Because many of us work seven days a week. Damn Covid changed our working habits. Survival is never saying, “No.” How did we get to this day already? Are we walking a straight line or spinning inside an out of control circle? Ultimately it’s our decision to turn this day into a revision or allow it to have its own identity. Yep, a choice. Like trying to answer, “What would you like for lunch?” Days are nothing more than dots on a map. I’ve been a daily writer since July 1994. I have everything put on paper. Everything. Do you know what twenty seven years of writing looks like? Six air tight boxes. That’s it. But don’t ask me to pick them up. The boxes are extremely heavy. Days of the week. Dots on a map. And on your journey what have you learned? It only feels like we’ve been everywhere. And if you have. Congratulations! Have you turned it into a tool? The greatest thing about arriving into a new day is getting another opportunity to learn something new. Have you turned your personal walk into a set of tools? To be used by others beyond your next touch. Making your moments a well-studied path like that of Jane Goodall. My heart tells me that she probably never woke up to a new day wondering, “How did it become this day already?” I’ve got nothing to back that claim but I spent some time with Dr. Gabby Wild the other day. A global veterinarian. National Geographic has embraced her presence by sharing her experiences in books. To teach young minds. To inspire closed souls to reopen. We spoke of Jane Goodall. Deeply. Because Dr. Gabby got to take care of the chimpanzee’s that Jane Goodall studied. Daily. If you run a food truck, stock the shelves at a grocery store, build computers, study cancer drive a school bus or host acoustic live music concerts on a lake. What’s your story? Share it or someone will write it for you. They’re not gonna get it right. Because only you experienced it.

Blank Sheet Of Paper

Listen to "Blank Sheet Of Paper" on Spreaker. March 11, 2021 You can tell we’re getting back to normal. While walking in from the forest I took note of my front yard. It’s not colorful, magazine cover groomed. I’ve not had the time. No lockdown time to make all that’s wrong a tad bit closer to being acceptable. Getting back to normal. Had dinner with my wife outside on the porch last night. Just like we did every afternoon and evening during the big shutdown. Always together. It just felt good to be in a moment without careers getting in the way. But it’s all changed. Getting back to normal. It’s one big giant blank page. We’ve never stopped asking about how long we’re supposed to be in front of it. Is it a question for self? Life being a page. How would we fill it? I know! Let’s turn it into a bill and run it through our state and national government. Our luck there’d be a filibuster. We’d still be sitting here staring at a blank page. Getting back to normal. It almost feels like a single drop of water in a coffee cup. Sure we could tip it upside down and rid the world of its presence. Or we could just let it sit there hoping it’ll soon dry. It probably won’t. Not with all of this southern humidity. The world is present. It never acts the same day twice. It might resemble the events already lived but ultimately through choice we make all things different. If we were to go back into a lockdown it wouldn’t be the same. Just as getting back to normal doesn’t feel like we assumed. Here it is! The blank page! A daily exercise that has a funny way of igniting the heart. Remember those Zoom moments with friends and family? Remember sitting outside and the highway sounds weren’t louder than nature? Remember when the only thing you had to do was to wash your hands and wear a mask? The page never felt empty. Yet as we gather in larger circles and move through invisible mountains the larger the blank page gets. I guess it’ll eventually become that look in your eye. You know the one. When someone comes up to you and asks if everything’s alright and you don’t know how to answer them. The blank page. For one year we got to feel what retirement is like. How will we live the rest of our life?

Unplugged and Totally Uncut March 10th

Today Wednesday March 10th on Unplugged and Totally Uncut. Dr. Gabby knows animals. So much so that National Geographic has published her global experiences with the wild kingdom. I had to ask her, "Who is the most curious? Is it a racoon? A cat? Is it the human?" Wait til you hear how she answers. 11 am post https://www.spreaker.com/episode/43825490 Kelsie Watts grew up in a family that loved singing. Her brother being a huge inspiration.
