"The listening room is a haven for serious jazz listeners." Melba Miller

In this captivating episode, we delve into the soulful world of jazz with the remarkable Melba Miller, the visionary behind Melba Miller's Jazz Oasis in Palm Springs. As a passionate advocate for live music, Melba has created a haven for jazz lovers, where the focus is on truly listening to the music rather than using it as mere background noise.
 
Throughout the episode, we touch on the behavioral dynamics of audiences in live settings. Melba shares her experiences performing in various environments, from intimate listening rooms to bustling restaurants where patrons are more focused on their conversations than the music. This raises important questions about how we engage with live performances and the responsibility we have as audience members to support the artists.
 
Whether you're a seasoned jazz aficionado or a newcomer to the genre, this episode offers valuable insights into the world of jazz and the importance of preserving its essence.

In Part II of our coverage of longevity and travel, I take you to the 5 Blue Zones identified as areas where people live longer than in other regions of the world. Since they were identified, over 50 different communities have been identified as longevity hotpots. 

As we discuss the attributes of the original 5 Blue Zones in Greece, Italy, the USA, Costa Rica, and Japan, we discover the reasons in lifestyle, attitude, and faith that keep humans living longer and healthier. We are empowered to create our own list of longevity protocols. 

The episode ends with three ways to make your home community a Blue Zone: 1) praise merchants who offer better food and access to exercise, 2) be a model for your family and friends, and 3) prioritize longevity when you vote for community leaders. Advocate for more park space, walkable and safe streets, and demand national and local budgets for preventive care. This episode can be a game-changer for you and your neighbors.
