This week's theme is Mood-Boosting Stories. The curator is Naomi Shah, Founder and CEO at Meet Cute.

Why did Naomi choose this theme? "At Meet Cute, our mission is to inspire the full spectrum of love through our original romantic comedies. People leave our stories feeling optimistic and hopeful. In a world full of heavy news and dark themes, sometimes you just need a pick-me-up.."

Thank you to this week's first EarBuds sponsor, LWC Studios:

LWC Studios just launched a new show, How to Talk to High [Achievers] About Anything,

and they need you! LWC Studios is interviewing Black and brown professionals about their triumphs — and where they sometimes still trip up. They want to speak with folks achieving new heights, either in their personal or professional lives, and who are looking for ways to keep leveling up.

If this is you, or someone you know, please contact producer Virginia Lora at [email protected] to talk about scheduling an interview.

This week, we are also sponsored by Dio:

Why don’t you have a speaker in every corner of your home? Is it because it’s too expensive? Too complicated? Or too much effort? Dio has finally made it easy and affordable to have speakers everywhere. No extra app or voice assistant required – just play anything from your phone to any speakers in your home. It’s that simple.

Dio is launching on April 5. Reserve your Dio Node now for a special discount!

Description: In the hands of different cultures, a single ingredient can take on many wondrous forms.

As the world faces alarming upward shifts in base temperature, climate-centric conversations about crops become increasingly important to the resiliency and survival of our food systems.
