Show Notes
On today’s Sick of this Show, Nick Paro is joined by special guest, Cliff Schecter of Blue Amp Media (Blue Amp), for incredible discussions into:
* Amplifying blue voices through collaboration and community over competition — we talk about our good friends and colleagues Melissa Corrigan, she/her and Lawrence Winnerman and the incredible work they have been doing to help drive the development and growth of the new media sphere.
* The latest on Pete “kill them all” Hegseth, the criminality of the DoD indiscriminately killing civilians in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific, and how all of this revolves around a made-up armed conflict which has not received any lawful congressional approvals.
* My favorite, wordsmithing and narrative building — discussing different slogans, how to grab people’s attention with what you are for (not just against), and how we plan to spend the next 11-months in order to win.
Wordsmithing
Nick Paro and Cliff Schecter spent some time workshopping and getting feedback from the audience — we’re collaborating, in realtime, to get creative ideas out the so people know what we stand for and how to describe the regime. Here’s a few we discussed
What we are for
AA - Accountability & Authenticity
AAA - Accountability, Authenticity, & Affordability
Who we are against
C4 - Cruelty, Corruption, Criminality, & Incompetence
How we frame it
Progressive vs Regressive — do we progress towards a more perfect union, or do we regress into hatred’s of the past?
Updating the RISE slogan
From: RISE — restore integrity, service, & ethics
To: RISE — reclaiming integrity, service, & ethics
