Alternative Talk- 1150AM KKNW

Can Scientists Agree Where Politicians Fail?

This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, we kick things off with a classic, but not in the way you’d expect. Bec brings us the latest trend watch: “Americana Reboot.” Think Rebel Without a Cause, but swap James Dean for James Clean. We're talking aged Levi’s, cowboy boots, and fresh-faced mustaches. It’s rugged vintage meets sterile chic; and not just on celebs, but in everyday style scenes you might not expect. Turns out, you can bring the wild west to the workplace, hold the dust. Then we're back at it with Part 2 of your most pressing wardrobe woes, because last week’s listener questions left us wanting more. First up: how do you make a shirt and tie combo look cool without resorting to a neck tattoo? We’ve got the layers, textures, and attitude to pull it off. Next, flannel shirts. Is it possible to wear them without looking like you time traveled straight from 1992 Seattle? Spoiler: yes, and we’ll tell you how. We also ironed out coat conundrums, how to bring skinny jeans back with confidence, and of course, more of your style SOS messages; answered with our signature mix of insight and irreverence. Keep it stylish! Let me know if you have questions. Have a great week and we will see you next Monday to do one live show and record one straight after (if that still works).

Episode 097: “The Space Between My Truth and Yours” Disagreement doesn’t have to mean disconnection. In an age of constant polarization, we’re quick to assume that difference equals danger — but it doesn’t have to. In this episode of Staying Power, JDK and Ashley explore how two people can both “be right” from their own lived experience, and still stay curious, compassionate, and connected. They unpack what psychology and neuroscience say about cognitive flexibility, emotional safety, and why the brain craves certainty even when it costs us closeness. Learn practical ways to hold space for “two truths” in your relationships — from partners and coworkers to friends and family — and why the capacity to do so might be one of the most important resilience skills of our time.

Building a Better World: Dr. Jay Singh's Mission of Service | Made of More Episode 17 In this episode of 'Made Of More,' host Chris Erdmann interviews Dr. Jay Singh, a veteran international development expert and founder of Development Impact Global Group. Over a conversation that spans Jay's early career in the military to his extensive work with USAID in countries from Afghanistan to Jamaica, the discussion delves into leadership during crises, the importance of humility and empathy, and Jay's ongoing efforts to support communities struck by natural disasters like Hurricane Melissa in Jamaica. Jay shares his philosophy of service, the necessity of creating sustainable impact, and the value of maintaining a sense of purpose in both professional and personal lives. Listeners gain insights into the operations of NGOs in crisis zones, the rebuilding processes, and the vital role of personal presence and support in helping communities recover. About the show: Made of More is a radio show / podcast that shares the powerful, personal stories behind the entrepreneurs of the greater Seattle area and beyond, individuals who have built meaningful businesses and experiences not just to better their own lives, but to positively impact their communities, families, and the world around them. This show isn’t just about what they’ve built – it’s also about who they are as people. We explore their journeys of inspiration, adversity, risk, and resilience. We dig into the pivotal moments, the challenges that shaped them, and the drive that pushed them to step outside the box and do something different. These are people who are made of more. And so are our listeners. Each episode is an invitation to connect more deeply; not only with the story, but with the mission behind each business. Whether it inspires you to chase a dream, break your own mold, or simply experience and support these ventures in a way that speaks to you, Made of More reminds us that greatness often begins with a story worth telling.

This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, we laced up (literally) with a brand-new trend; the “Sneakerina.” It’s the unexpected mashup of a sneaker and a ballet flat, proving you can plié and power-walk your way through fashion. We’re still debating whether you should wear them to dance class or brunch, but one thing’s for sure: they’re trying to make the balletcore trend street-chic. Then came the collective gasp, MTV has retired several of its music channels after 40 years. Goodbye MTV Music, MTV 80s, and so many style-driven moments from our youth. Naturally, that sparked a whole trip down memory lane for the team, complete with music video fashion flashbacks. With nostalgia behind us, we jumped into something just as iconic: your style questions. One listener wondered how to hang onto beloved wardrobe pieces after losing weight; don’t worry, we’ve got tailored solutions for that. Another was stuck in denim limbo, saying big pants feel too young but skinny jeans feel too dated, yes, we’ve found a stylish in-between. As always, no question’s too big, no wardrobe headache too small. This episode is packed with practical, fun, and confidence boosting style advice; just what your closet ordered. Happy Styling!

Today on Conscious Talk… For millennia Indigenous people have used ferns for food and medicinal purposes. Why aren’t we more familiar with their uses other than decorating or yards and homes? We’ll talk to herbalist Robert Dale Rogers for some insight. He’s the author of “The Fern Pharmacy”, an encyclopedic collection of the practical uses of ferns modern medicine is just becoming aware of. Website: www.SelfHealDistributing.com

Join host Sue Rose Minahan and special guest Jen Sachs for a potent fireside chat: "PLUTO MYTHOS." Rather than simply an astrological discussion; it's an invitation to explore the profound, metamorphic journey the soul is often required to undergo to evolve. Pluto is the cosmic architect of endings and powerful new beginnings—the planet that demands we shed what no longer serves us to make way for the brilliant, undeniable new evolved experience. As the modern ruler of Scorpio, Pluto mythologically stands as the third brother to Neptune (the oceans) and Zeus/Jupiter (the heavens). He rules the underworld, where the deceased dwell and where treasures reside. (Mars remains the traditional ruler of Scorpio.) This conversation aligns perfectly with potent November 2025 transits. Mercury retrogrades back into Scorpio to join a four-planet stellium with the Sun, Moon, and Venus. Furthermore, the November 20th New Moon in Scorpio will form a grand water trine with Neptune in Pisces and Jupiter in Cancer. This is a powerful, collective invitation to drop within and shapeshift inner darkness into guiding light. Essentially Pluto signifies profound endings and powerful new beginnings that accelerate our evolutionary journey. Expect a spontaneous and thought-provoking collaborative discussion that will illuminate these potent moments of transition!

Episode 096: “Letting People Be Themselves (Without Losing Yourself)” Why is it so hard to stop trying to “fix” or “improve” other people — even when we know it rarely works? Whether it’s a partner, co-worker, or family member, most of us try to shape others to meet our comfort zones, beliefs, or needs for control. In this episode of Staying Power, JDK and Ashley unpack the deep human drive behind this habit — from nervous system survival patterns to attachment conditioning — and explore how we can build healthier, more authentic connections through acceptance and self-awareness. Learn how to recognize manipulation (even subtle, well-intended kinds), set compassionate boundaries, and shift your focus from control to connection through both mindset and somatic tools.

Kaleidoscope Visions panel presents this month’s “MOON PHASES-Fingers of Fate”. This pattern coordinates continual adjustments as a cardinal new moon moves into fixed archetypal moon phases. The Finger of Fate pattern (YOD) requires adjusting between its energetic dynamics without any easy resolution. The quincunx of 150° aspect requires recalibration causing a constant, dynamic tension. Essentially, an internal ‘push-pull’ as we ‘lean into’ experiencing one energy to the other. Seeking to coordinate their cosmic reflection into our life. Potentially this month involves a process of adjusting to create a new path of perspectives with our ego, our emotions, our values, and thinking. Opening the four moon phases begins with the New Moon at 28 degrees Libra. It heralds the start of a six-month pattern of new moons at 28 degrees of archetypal fulfilment. Libra involves a desire to balance between extremes presented by any polarity. Here, looking at the values to heal from toxicity. Following phases all in fixed signs will be the first quarter moon on Oct 29 at 6°30 Aquarius, the Full Moon on Nov 5 at 13°22’ Taurus, and third quarter moon on Nov 12 at 20°04’ Leo. The moon's our personal planet regulating the past coming into the present. Weekly the moon systematic monthly cycle transitions from the New Moon to first quarter, Full Moon, and third quarter moon phases. Daily moving 12-13 degrees, the moon moves through a Zodiac sign in two & a half days.

The gang is back together again, although not in studio so the sound may be different in this episode. Eric is just back from his European vacation and Stacy is on the eve of leaving for her trip to Italy. For the first half of the show, Stacy peppers Eric with questions about his trip – “the roses” or highlights and “the thorns” or struggles. Unsurprisingly the biggest thorn was the stress of wondering whether the apartment Eric booked in Paris would let him in as he had no communication prior to his arrival. While it all worked out in the end (thanks to the ‘Frenchies,” the process was a thorn in Eric’s side. However, the roses were in full bloom as he and the girlfriend got to visit some new and old favorite places. Eric also got to see some of his all-time favorite bands/musicians while traveling – from the Woodentops and Noel Burke to Edwyn Collins (on his farewell tour) and The Divine Comedy. For the second half of the show, Eric and Stacy shared that they both checked off another Cultural Blindspot; for Eric, The Fugitive and for Stacy, Citizen Kane. They agreed the former was enjoyable if farfetched while the latter was “meh” making its’ reputation as one of the greatest films made all that much more perplexing. In the end they barely touch on the topic of the week, so next week’s episode topic is TBD. Tune in for relatable laughs and pop culture tangents.

Bhutan & Dubai - Polar Opposites

Episode 095: “The Bright Side Has Clouds Too” We often think of “happy” people as immune to bad days — or that those who struggle with sadness or stress can’t genuinely embrace positivity. In this episode of Staying Power, JDK and Ashley explore why both ideas miss the mark. True happiness isn’t about constant positivity; it’s about balance — the ability to hold space for hard emotions and good ones without falling into toxic positivity or hopeless pessimism. With insights from psychology and neuroscience, they unpack how resilient people manage emotional ups and downs, what happiness actually means in research terms, and how to cultivate emotional flexibility in daily life.

On this edition of Shmooze Radio (originally aired 10/27/15) Rabbi Elazar Bogomilsky brings you his message on The Concept of Productivity and thoughts on Time from a Jewish perspective.

Glen Gilbert sits down with coach, author, and host of the Come On Man podcast, Paul Bauer. Paul's mission is to help men reclaim their confidence, rebuild their relationships, and rise from heartbreak. We dive deep into the essential elements of a successful modern relationship, starting with a controversial yet effective mental model: why men must view themselves as the "king of the relationship" to maintain strong masculine frame and provide the structure that women instinctively crave. This conversation is for any man looking to improve his love life or any woman seeking to understand how to better support the man she loves. Paul shares his candid "Batman origin story"—his journey from being a "blue-pilled" sniper dater to a man who transformed his life after divorce through self-help. He reveals the three non-negotiable books he calls his "Holy Trinity" for mastering relationships (Atomic Attraction, Dating Essentials for Men, and How to Be a 3% Man). We also cover the necessity of setting and enforcing strong personal boundaries, how to stop "coasting" in your relationship, and the positive outcome of this work: building a genuinely healthy partnership where you are treated like a king. Tune in to learn how to move past bitterness, stay grounded, and create a legacy of confidence.

DAMTT: Rats & Cats, Mahjong and Holiday Décor Debates In this episode of "Don’t Ask Me to Talk," Stacy shares while visiting “Joan” (her mother), she’s been painting ladybug rocks for her mother and friends, sparking memories of “A Bug’s Life” and Denis Leary’s hilarious ladybug character, Francis. Things take a turn as Stacy reveals an unfortunate update about a now-infected cat scratch from her grandcat Wilson—cue the Dr. Pimple Popper reference—which leads Eric to recall a classic Seinfeld moment questioning how dermatologists save lives. The duo debates the credibility of certain medical professions, with Eric voicing skepticism about chiropractors. Stacy also recounts joining her mother-in-law and her friends for a lively game of mahjong, while Eric muses about games popular among the older demographic, like golf, poker, and cribbage. Meanwhile, Eric discovers another dead rat in his crawl space and once again tackles the smell with his trusty (and minty) odor killer. As he continues to finalize his travel plans in France, he jokes he might end up sleeping on the streets. The Cultural Blindspots segment features Eric’s passionate correction that “records” is the right term (not “vinyls”) and his review of “Rosemary’s Baby” starring a young Mia Farrow, as well as the prequel “Apartment 7A” with Julia Garner. They talk about the darker side of some of these classic movies and their infamous directors. Wrapping up, the hosts dive into the week’s hot topic: when is the right time to decorate for major holidays? Eric introduces the term “Summerween” to describe the ever-earlier arrival of Halloween décor in stores, sparking a lively debate about trends, retail pressure, and personal preferences. Tune in for laughs, pop culture tangents, and quirky household stories! DAMTT is on Facebook and Instagram as @dontaskme to talk or email [email protected]

This is the time of year when we are enticed and horrified by the nocturnal frights that beckon us into the mysterious realm. Seattle and Puget Sound are perfect for celebrating Halloween; days are short and nights are long enough for spooky encounters at many venues that compete to see who is the scariest of them all. Ghost host Matt Shea describes a worthy variety of them in this episode.
