Crazy WisdomEpisode #447: From Frustration to Creation: Building with Chaos Instead of BlueprintsIn this episode of the Crazy Wisdom Podcast, I, Stewart Alsop, speak with Perry Knoppert, founder of The Octopus Movement, joining us from the Netherlands. We explore everything from octopus facts (like how they once had bones and decided to ditch them—wild, right?) to neurodivergence, non-linear thinking, the alien-like nature of both octopuses and AI, and how the future of education might finally reflect the chaos and creativity of human intelligence. Perry drops insight bombs on ADHD, dyslexia, chaos as a superpower, and even shares a wild idea about how frustration—not just ideas—can shape the world. You ca...

The Entertainment with Tom Knoblauch19. Ishtar: Money Well SpentIn part four of our four part series on Elaine May, it’s finally time to talk about her final directorial effort and what has become a cultural punching bag as the worst film of all time: Ishtar. The 1987 release saw May returning to her screwball roots with, as so much of her work centers on, a dysfunctional partnership pushed to its extremes. Unlike the darkness of Mikey and Nicky, though, Dustin Hoffman and Warren Beatty play lovable idiots, men who are so desperate to become the next Simon and Garfunkel that they never stop to notice that they ca...
2024-06-0853 minThe Entertainment with Tom Knoblauch18. Mikey and Nicky: Letting GoMikey and Nicky is unmistakably an Elaine May film and yet it stands out compared to her other directorial efforts as far less comedic and far more openly tragic. If her comedies drew criticism for their brutality, here the brutality is the star alongside Peter Falk and John Cassavetes. It is a film about the difficult of letting go and, as often was the case with Elaine May’s productions, one she went to extreme lengths to hold onto. To make sense of Mikey and Nicky, a dark gangster drama, and its place in the Elaine May body of wo...

Peter Alsop‘s SONGS TO CHEWPeaceful FeetOur SONG TO CHEW this week is PEACEFUL FEET, from my 'Grow It At Home' album. I wrote it as part of a challenge sent out from Rounder Kids Records asking some of the best artists in children's and family music to create a one-minute song for an album called "HEAR AND GONE IN 60 SECONDS" It included my friends Bill Harley, Cathy Fink & Marcy Marxer, Justin Roberts, Kim and Reggie Harris, Tom Paxton, Beethoven's Wig, Dan Crow, Dave Kinnoin, Parachute Express and Joanie Bartels, just to name a few! I wrote a song that was silly, but also had la...

Peter Alsop‘s SONGS TO CHEWFive Moms And Three Dads On this week's "Songs To Chew" we'll listen to my friend Tom Hunter's song, FIVE MOMS AND THREE DADS. It's on my 'Ebenezer's Make Over' album. Tom presents a different vision for how we can support a more caring and fulfilling society by allowing and supporting more diverse kinds of family groups. The traditional American 'nuclear' family, with two biological parents and their offspring, is what most of us learned, and considered to be 'normal'; whereas a bunch of adults, living communally with each other and their children, feels 'foreign' to many of us who were raised in accepted "norma...

Andy hat sich mit den falschen Partnern zusammen geschlossen. Es fehlte bei anderen an eienr Verpflichtung, das Project gemeinsam umzu setzen. Andy war der einzige, der Geld investierte und plötzlich zogen sich die anderen zurück. Jahre später entdeckte Andy ein sehr ähnliches Produkt mit ähnlichem Logo in seiner Region. Ob da jemand eine Idee geklaut hat?
