Ohio Crime Tracker journalist, Angela An, reveals how data exposes real, and sometimes very different stories.  

Everyone has a story. You just need to know where to look to find a good one. Today the news viewer is inundated with click-bait, push alerts, infographics, and snappy headlines. The challenge for journalists today is to engage viewers to watch, read, or listen to a story where they can spend more than 30-seconds digesting the information. In this podcast, we will hear how data gathering is used specifically with WBNS 10TV’s CrimeTracker 10 franchise. Our guest is morning news anchor, Angela An and our host is Cyndi Greenglass.

Originally Broadcast 10pm 7th January 2019.

The massive music industry show known as NAMM (for "National Association of Music Merchandisers) returns to take over the entire Anaheim Convention Center this week, Thursday, Jan. 24-Sunday, Jan. 27 as all the leading manufacturers of guitars, drums and other musical instruments make their way to Orange County for this annual gathering of  the clan. More than just another trade show, it's a musical circus with performances and appearances by many of the leading rock and roll, hip hop and country artists (past and present), along with all the people who work behind the scenes to record their music and put on their performances. 

And in a world where anyone can now make professional recordings in their own home or garage and push that music out to world thru sites like Soundcloud and Social Media, that industry has never been bigger or more diverse.  Take for example our guest from MUSIC.iLUV, a new app that allows you to perform along with professional tracks or tracks you've recorded, collaborate with other musicians around the world and then share that new creation instantly thru social media. The app even has built in features to help improve the sound and make anyone an instant musician. "An augmented reality social musical app for future artists to create, practice and perform music" in a way never seen before. 

The Music.iLuv app is backed by research done at Harvard University and the University of Southern California on what motivates digital-age kids, how they learn and behave, and what learning processes they prefer and grew out of an original grant by the US National Science Foundation.

Music.iLuv was developed with the expertise of the following esteemed advisors: Robert Cutietta, Professor of Music and Dean of the School of Music and Dance, University of Southern California in Los Angeles, and author of the book, "How to Raise Musical Kids." Dr Umida Avloni, Ph.D. from Uzbek Institute of Arts (USSR). Her expertise is in piano, music theory and composition; Dr Sven Dickinson, Professor and past Chair of the Department of Computer Science at the University of Toronto in Toronto, Canada; and Dr. Sam Heidari, CEO of Quantenna Communications, who is a widely-recognized leader in electrical engineering technology. He serves as an adviser on both business and technology development for the Music.iLuv app. He also provides proven expertise in pitch detection.

Music.iLuv makes it's debut at this year's fascinating NAMM SHOW along with countless other apps, instruments and recording technology. Tune it to hear more!

Show Notes  I am really looking forward to our show today because we are about to take a direction that we have never before broached. We have with us relationship expert and author, Elliott Katz and today Elliott and I will have a discussion about his book, Being the Strong Man a Woman Wants. I have so many questions for Elliott like (a) are women really frustrated about a plethora of weak men running around the dating scene? (b) how does the strong man motif come into play in the 2019, era of the ever-expanding strong women movement? (c) and mostly, what does it actually mean to be a strong man? This is going to be fun! Elliott Katz is the author of seven nonfiction books and has appeared regularly on radio and television interviews. He teaches the principles in this book to men and women, and speaks at conferences to groups of both men and women. Elliott’s book has withstood the test of time in that it was first written in 2007, rewritten in 2012 and is still selling today. Let’s...

How do you get a 65-year old trucker with two months left before retirement and no desire to change perspectives on his job to look at his job differently? Our guest did. With the secret power we all posses but rarely use well.

This week’s Confident ROi with Alex Vorobieff  TEDx speaker, author and consultant Brian Fretwell discusses the power of questions in the business setting.

They delve into why asking questions is so important, particularly with respect to building agency, purpose and a sense of belonging with in an organization.

Brian reveals the background behind his viral TEDx talk through the story of his teaching days, when one of his students saw no future except drug addiction and how a question changed everything.

We also look at how deep and indirect questions can help individuals to re-focus their locus of control from external (blaming and focusing on others) to internal (focusing on improving themselves). And we hear the rest of the story of the 65-year old truck driver with only 2 months left until retirement.
