Contrary to popular belief, she wasn’t convicted of insider trading—her charges were obstruction of justice and lying to federal investigators.

The Half Hour of PowerMovie News! Shocking Revelations!Joe and Special Guest Marc discuss the state of movies today. Joe presents 3 topics that he believes are connected. The first topic is a badly written poorly researched article about the original 1954 Godzilla film. How did such a poor article get published? It truly is all about the clicks and has nothing to do with quality. The second is the cash-grab spectacle of Avengers: Doomsday. Is this a desperate attempt to make the MCU relevant again? Patrick Stewart, Ian McKellen, Alan Cumming, Robert Downey Jr., they just could not say no! The third is the unruly behavior in the...

It's Not All BadDrum Major Instinct, and Life’s Blue Print – Our Better SelvesThis is an old episode that's dear to my heart that has meaning, compassion, and thoughtfulness.

2023-12-0419 minIt's Not All BadAware - That's a Good ThingBeing aware of what we say and do are important. Of course, this word "aware" is now often associated with the new word, "Woke," and it's thoroughly weaponized to the point many people are offended at others who are "aware" or "woke" to slights and even injustices. This is especially true concerning racial and ethnicities, gender issues, religion, and even against people who have physical and emotional challenges. This short episode is about this topic. I find peace in being aware or woke to the plight of others. I hope this is the same with many of my listeners.

To be certain, this kind of thinking has been, is, and will always be. But there was a time when openly and brazenly spouting this hate-filled garbage would have been relegated to the darkness of maybe close family and friends, or some obscure publication. No more, it's on Twitter and all manner of other media outlets. Indeed, there's even a major cable news network via which some of its hosts traffic in and encourages dislike or even hatred of people of color and...

The right to vote is what citizens expect and deserve as part of a kind of citizens' contract with the government in those countries. In fact, the right to vote is codified in many constitutions as a matter of law.
However, liberal democratic principals have always been under fire and pressure from would be autocrats, authoritarians, war lords, strong men, and those who would enrich themselves and their families. One element in pressuring the downfall of liberal democracies is...

Indeed, the US flag is also such an important symbol of unity. Yes, there must be acknowledgment that some people will use the flag as a rallying point of supremacy over others, exclusion of others, and even a longing for the "good old days" during which exclusion of whole swaths of Americans were demonized and relegated to almost a perpetual state of impoverishment as a demographic. Fortunately, the American flag and the US Constitution actual stand for...

Unfortunately, gun related deaths and mass shootings are normal in America. No one can rightly proclaim that gun related deaths and mass shootings are shockingly infrequent or seldom occurances in this country.

2022-12-0218 minIt's Not All BadWhat’s this Chatter About Social Security and Medicare?For Americans, especially elderly citizens, Social Security and Medicare benefits are important in their lives. These two programs help provide limited monthly financial benefits, and various levels of medical coverage for senior citizens, widows, and the disabled persons. Unfortunately, there is a lot of talk about reworking these programs, and in some circles, especially Republican discussions, even having to revalidate Social Security every five years. What's really frightening is sunsetting benefits when a recipient reaches a certain age, as if a 90 year old person will suddenly become physically and financial self-sufficient at that age.

But this two-word description called "Imposter Syndrome" caught my attention this week. This feeling that people have, and apparently many definitions specifically specifies this affliction to successful and accomplished individuals. I suspect, it affects many average common folks as well. During this short episode, I discuss the "Imposter Syndrome" concept not in the way of trying to explain whether this is just a phra...

It's Not All BadEmotions, Intelligence, and Leadership Can Be Mutually InclusiveEmotional intelligence or EI has been around for quite some time, since 1990. Often people in leadership positions equate EI to "soft" skills, as if quality and thoughtfully positive emotions are something insignificant and shouldn't be equal to productivity. Fortunately, the are others who believe EI is a must in terms of understanding one's own and the emotions of others. Why would a supervisor, leader, subordinate, or colleague wish to work in a caustic work atmosphere where misunderstandings, mood swings, backbiting, and abusive emotionally behavior is the norm rather than the exception. There are some leaders who appear to have an i...
2022-10-0119 minIt's Not All BadWhat! You’re a Liberal or You’re a Conservative?There's nothing inherently wrong with being a political liberal or political conservative. In liberal democracies, this is normal and expected. Indeed, these two deltas and the various points on this spectrum is what keeps society progressing although it does appear to regress at time which is unfortunate. Still, society perseveres and does not give up on democratic ideals and support for all its people. Thank you for listening to this short episode as I discuss misunderstandings and commonalities among this political spectrum. Yes. Huge differences remain and certainly have diminished meaningful political discourse, this can be salvaged. While all things...

Part of the repair process includes you - the voter - not just politicians. It requires individual voter self-reflection on what's important for our country. Indeed, I do hope it remains the aspirational nature of our liberal democracy and the aspirational and living nature of our constitution. If you must bet, always bet on the big "D." Democracy.

2022-09-0415 minIt's Not All BadThe Possible Is Now RealityThere's absolutely nothing good about COVID-19. It's killed so many people and robbed millions of others of good health. In the wake of this health menace, commercial companies and governments developed and even embraced ways for certain employee positions to be productive even when away from the normal place of work. This is called telework and remote work. What was once almost considered a taboo topic in many circles is now embraced by many as a commonplace practice. I discuss this worker paradigm shift in this episode.

It's used to express a desire for less oversight, less regulations, less restrictions, and list goes on and on. Some use "freedom" as a way to express demonization of the other and a sense of strong nationalism, and even use it to stoke racial animus. Yet others express "freedom" as wanting a free reign to gain more, to do more, and to own more. Of course, there are those that express "freedom" as wanting less government or regulatory oversight.

Indeed, it's very likely you are one of those people, and that should give us all hope.

There are still concerns that there may be other federally recognized rights of progression that could be reviewed, overturned, and remanded to individual states to decide the fate of a particular previously perceived right.

But there's so many simple acts of kindness that many people do each day as routine and often without any significant thought because that's who they are, and maybe who you are as well.

It appears when there's a respite in racially and religious inspired mass shootings, we're jolted yet again with the horrors of the reality of what's happening in the United States. As our society progresses on so many various commercial, environmental, and social issues, there seems to be a concerted effort to continue radicalizing people, especially some White males, to act out their hatred in a shower of bullets.

In the US there is a quite organized effort to de-humanize and demonize those people who are LGBTQ. There appears to be special emphasis on targeting and persecuting transgender women. Some of the most vocal of those who oppose human rights of transgender people are often men. There are probably many reasons why some men are triggered negatively by transgender women, which is quite unfortunate. Indeed, various anti-gay and anti-transgender laws are being introduced and passed in a number of localities. Yeah, "Toxic Masculinity" is ali...

We've all seen or heard about Finland often ranking number one in happiness in this report yet again. After reviewing, I can understand why Finish people - collectively - would rate high on the happiness meter. There's no single factor that determines this happiness quotient. The survey includes reviewing levels of trust, benevolence, freedom, income, and life expectancy.
This 2021 report doesn't elevate Finland as angelic or demonize the countries that are on the lower end of the spectrum in any...

Maybe Not!As we all navigate our individual and collective paths through life, there are successes and challenges that ripple throughout our existence. That's totally fine because that's, well, life. But as people deal with frustrations, anger, joy, and happiness, these emotions can create bumps in the road. Sometimes it's maybe a good idea to self-reflect on these three words, "Why," What" are we, and "Who" are we.
To get our creative and thoughtfulness juices flowing, I discuss these issues on this short episode. Nothing too deep or even remotely emotional, but exploring that it's fine for each of us to...

School shootings isn't a new phenomenon in society, it's become frequent enough to the point of just short of normality and expectations.During this episode, I mention some of the concerns of both sides of the gun debate, but emphasizing more can and should be done.

A couple of you have asked why I and my guests have not discussed the hot button issue of race. Indeed, I wanted to have discussions about people, successes, organizational excellence, leadership, and empowerment. When race becomes the topic we all know that it's a minefield if not discussed thoughtfully and without rancor or accusations. This subject often evokes sentiments of anger, guilt, resentment, and even hopelessness. The feelings of hopelessness is because even as our society has made serious progress in racial discourse and tolerance, there are still demonstrably racist actions that...

To this point, there are letters assigned to each generation grouping to further define everyone. Yes. Much of the findings about generational specific behaviors are confirmed by rigorous research, analysis, and via various studies. However, these generational alphabet associations have at times caused a generational divide instead of increased understanding.

2021-10-2341 minIt's Not All BadSome Challenges of 2021 - A Chat with Guest Co-Host Mike MaThere are quite a few challenges faces us over the last two years, and many have remained in 2021. What challenges you ask? COVID-19 pandemic, income inequality, domestic violence, an epidemic of loneliness, increased unemployment, the high costs of healthcare, and the continued erosion of productive political discourse just to name a few. I realize discussing such depressing issues doesn't appear to mesh with the title of my podcast, "It's Not All Bad." But it's good for any society to acknowledge its challenges in proper discourse, absent the rancor, as a way to develop and agree on solutions to serious prob...

As with many of us, it's good to step back and enjoy a conversation, even when it's about nothing special in particular, interlaced with humor. This is just such a time, right! Although not always, there are times when we ponder an action, a result, a state of being, and so many other things with a simple utterance or thought of, "Hmm." During this episode, Dylan Mansa, joins me in exploring some of the things that may even caused you...

No. Leadership isn’t about how to lead by the numbers, by the alphabet, or by reading the latest leadership guides. Indeed, it’s a combination of those and so much more. You don’t need a PhD in leadership psychology, attend the latest big name university or school to learn much of what we already really know, but often may be reluctant or too timid put into practice.
Indeed, we have...

The study also found that 59 percent of startups have some type of program in place designed to increase the number of women in leadership — and that the founding team’s gender often determines which ex...

In fact, we celebrate them and their success. You know me, I'm always considering other issues that may make this concept somewhat more complicated when scratching the service.
Much of our wonderment about the success of others is associated with those who have become "self-made" millionaires and billionaires. Some of whom may have come from humble beginnings. Indeed, I too am amazed at the often meteoric rise of these fellow human beings. But what about those who have...

As most geographical regions, Middle East history has dealt with migration, empires, enlightenment, philosophers, commerce, and violent conflicts. In recent history, much of the focus has been on the aspects of conflict and oil.
However, there is so much more to that fascinating part of the world. The part part of family importance, aspirations for a better life, positive economic trends, and mutually beneficial economic trade often escapes world news in favor of violent conflicts.

Hopefully, this episode will cause you to think, "Hmm." If you KNOW your inner self is thoughtful and compassionate, and you practice those important human traits, then people (family, coworkers, friends, supervisors, and supervised) will often accept you for who you are, not the person you feel you have to be.

westernswithdad's podcastTHE MAN WHO SHOT LIBERTY VALANCE!Described as ‘The Citizen Kane of Westerns’ (by some guy on Rotten Tomatoes), this 1962 John Ford film certainly has a murderer’s row of great Western talent, starring no less than John Wayne, Jimmy Stewart and Lee Marvin. It’s also a deeply considered rumination on the building of America, and all civilization, and the role of both politics and men of conscience within that world. Heady stuff, but also the very core of what Westerns are all about! It’s also a film with nostalgic significance for both Dad and I (as many of these John Wayne films are), and...
