Alternative Talk- 1150AM KKNW

Today on Conscious Talk… Today the subject is love. It may seem elusive in these times, but it is indeed ever-present. How do we stay aligned with love in the midst of so much turmoil and cruelty is the question for today. We’ll talk to Dr. DiVanna VaDree for how she thinks we can stay aligned with love.

“FALL’S NEW VIBRATIONS – THE EQUINOX”. The quarterly panel profoundly reveals the upcoming season’s themes. “Master Vibrational Astrology author, researcher and instructor Linda Berry, along with Robert Pacitti, interpret Vibrational Astrology patterns specifically to this upcoming season. The Fall Equinox chart becomes a seed chart to understand the upcoming season’s primary consciousness vibrations through Vibrational Astrology techniques. EQUINOX – means the ‘EQUAL NIGHT’ “The Fall Equinox occurs when the sun enters zero degrees Libra. In both the Northern and Southern Hemisphere day and night length are approximately equal,” said Sue Minahan host of the weekly show.” Deeply spiritual, the equinox symbolizes nature’s cycles. A balance between the solstice where the light begins to further retreat for the Northern Hemisphere. Light fading begins celebration with deep gratitude for the summer’s bounty in the harvest. Yet below the equator for the Southern Hemisphere begins to return towards the next solstice offering seeds growing and new life.” The September equinox chart serves as a powerful seed chart, unveiling profound themes that resonate all autumn. Dive into the cosmic dance of the fall equinox with Master Vibrational Astrology (VA) author, researcher, and instructor Linda Berry, alongside Robert Pacitti. Through the lens of VA, they unravel the intricate core patterns that shape our collective consciousness during this season of gratitude. The fall equinox chart acts as a seed, planting themes that will develop throughout the autumn months. On September 22nd at 06:19:04 p.m. UTC (or 2:19:04 p.m. EDT on the USA East Coast), the sun will direct overhead the equinox at noon in the sky. This moment marks when it enters 0° Libra, where night and daytime hours are experienced equally in both the Northern and Southern Hemisphere. Join us as we explore these vibrant energies through VA's unique lens and embrace the solstice energy portal for this season's potential! THE NEW VIBRATIONS Panel LINDA BERRY, PAC, MSSW: received her Professional Astrology Certificate (PAC) in Vibrational Astrology January 2015 from Avalon School of Astrology studying with David Cochrane the Founder of Vibrational Astrology (VA). They continue to share their research material to build Vibrational Astrology knowledge. Linda created “Frequency Finder”, a VA Add-on to Sirius and Kepler Astrological Software.

In this episode of "Don't Ask Me to Talk," co-hosts Eric Rider and Stacy Heller kick things off with their signature upbeat banter and a shout-out to their intro music creator, Dave Nelson. Eric discusses the ups and downs of planning his trip to the UK, debating hotel choices and the reliability of online reviews, while Stacy shares updates about her ankle injury and her cats. They also touch on navigating small talk, with Eric recounting an awkward interaction with an acquaintance at a friend’s show, and Stacy offering advice on how to handle conversations about pregnancy with sensitivity in today’s social climate. For their segment Cultural Blindspots, Stacy reviews the classic film "Annie Hall" and reflects on its significance, style, notorious director, and iconic clothing (Diane Keaton) and performances. Eric talks about watching Hitchcock’s "Dial M for Murder," commenting on its plot, music, and the contained setting, as well as his quest for 3D movie experiences (perhaps a dedicated channel???). The hosts then dive into the main topic of the week, exploring which TV worlds they’d like to inhabit, from nostalgic sitcoms like "Mr. Belvedere" and "Family Ties" to modern series such as "Severance." The discussion is lighthearted, touching on the appeal and pitfalls of different fictional universes, and wraps up with a preview of next week’s topic about household debates, like pre-rinsing dishes before the dishwasher. Listeners are encouraged to engage with the show on social media and share their thoughts. DAMTT is on Facebook and Instagram as @dontaskme to talk or email [email protected]

In another classically tangential episode of Don’t Ask Me to Talk, Stacy sips from her trusty Owala bottle while sparking a debate on banning plastic water bottles and recycling schemes that may or may not involve mailing empty bottles to Pollywood. Meanwhile, Eric recounts his misadventures at a Nicky Glazer show—complete with a surprise Amanda Knox comedy set and losing his car in a mystery garage while “The Girlfriend” battles a bug. Stacy continues to battle her ankle injury and referees a feline feud that ends with her “grandcat” Wilson scaling her leg like a tree. The duo swaps wild bumper sticker sightings, Dear Abby zingers, and Reddit threads, then dive into their “Cultural Blindspots” segment with reviews of classic British films. Plus, Stacy’s bottled water family history and a quick stop in Flint, Michigan keep the laughs, if not the water, flowing. Tune in for witty banter, awkward encounters, and a clever take on everyday quirks! DAMTT is on Facebook and Instagram as @dontaskme to talk or email [email protected]

This week on Wisdom From The Wardrobe we start with a little fashion news: for the first time in 30 years, American Vogue has a new head of editorial content. Chloe Malle, previously at the helm of Vogue.com and co-host of The Run-Through podcast, steps into the role, handpicked by Anna Wintour herself who’s not going anywhere by the way. As summer fades and fall takes center stage, the style team rewinds the tape on their warm weather wardrobe wins. From Stacy saving her “money makers” (yes, her ankles) with cloud like shoes and swim dresses, to Bec going big with oversized hats and chunky-sole sandals, Lady P trading sandals for her scene stealing red sneakers, and Bruce staying cozy in his lightweight knits (because someone’s always cold) it’s a playful style summer recap. Expect laughs, playful banter, and a few sandal scandals as the crew shares their summer style favorites, standout staples, and style finds that may deserve to transition into fall. Whether you’re reminiscing about your own summer looks or seeking inspo for the season ahead, this episode delivers wardrobe wisdom with a wink. Happy Styling.

Lessons from a Life-Saving Doctor: Meet Dr. Richard Wei | Made of More Episode 13 In this episode of Made of More with host Chris Erdmann on KKNW 1150 AM, Dr. Richard Wei shares his journey from early influences in medicine to becoming a successful clinic owner in Bellingham, Washington. Dr. Wei discusses the structure and philosophy behind Care Medical Group, the importance of hiring for culture, and his deep-seated passion for saving lives. He recounts the challenges he faced during Hurricane Katrina and provides insights into leadership, mentorship, and perseverance. The conversation also explores topics like spirituality in medicine, impactful life lessons, and advice for those seeking to create a positive culture in their organizations. 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, the team nails it; literally, by starting with a quick dip into the latest manicure trends. From shiny Jelly Nails to biodegradable stick-on nails made from all-natural ingredients (yes, straight from the labs at the Atlas Institute, University of Colorado), beauty innovation is at your fingertips quite literally! Then it’s time to raid the closet and cue the costumes. This episode is all about dressing for drama not just for the day. The team explores the playful, theatrical side of style: how costume influences fashion, why your wardrobe might be full of hidden characters, and how fashion gives us the freedom to step into different roles. Whether it’s a power blazer that screams CEO energy or a prairie dress that leans full-on Little House chic, your closet is more of a stage than you think. Stacy even dives into the psychology of the costume piece, because sometimes, the way we dress is less about the fabric and more about the fantasy. So, who will you be today? The boss, the romantic, the rebel, or the leading lady? Tune in for wit, wisdom, and a little wardrobe drama. After all, fashion isn’t just about what you wear, it’s about the story you’re telling.

She shares her idea for an “empty nest” social channel: just her and her husband deciding what stays and what goes as they clear out their home. Stacy also recounts a recent visit to a Silent Book Club with her daughter Annie, describing the unique blend of quiet reading and casual socializing. The experience reminds her of the TV show “Silent Library” a reference unfamiliar to Eric! Meanwhile, Eric finds himself in a late-summer mood, reflecting on missed opportunities as the season ends. He tells a story about his mysterious neighbors, whom he mostly knows through their dogs. After noticing water running at “Lucky’s” house (name changed to protect the innocent), Eric tries to alert his neighbors and is met with confusion—only to discover later that the culprit was a house sitter and the water feature was intentional. Eric is gifted a thank-you gift card. This story sparks a conversation about the proliferation of doorbell cameras and their surprising role on social media. For this week’s Cultural Blindspot, Eric watches “Who Framed Roger Rabbit?” and enjoys the film’s edgy humor and rare collaboration between Warner Bros. and Disney characters. He learns it’s based on the novel “Who Censored Roger Rabbit?” and notes how well the film holds up. On the other side of the pop culture spectrum, Stacy dips her toe into horror with “Scary Movie,” appreciating the parody despite her lack of horror film experience. Eric recommends “Shaun of the Dead” as a follow-up. Their discussion leads to classic comedy: Stacy references Carol Burnett’s famous “Gone with the Wind” parody, a nod that surprises Eric. The main topic: Is it better to be lucky or smart? Stacy argues that luck sometimes plays a crucial role—she credits luck for scoring her house. Eric reflects on career-related luck during the pandemic. Ultimately, they agree: It’s best to be smart enough to recognize opportunity and humble enough to be grateful when luck strikes. Pressed to choose, though, both lean toward luck.

The Archetypal Symbols panel unpacks the dynamic “29° Virgo Solar Eclipse Unmasking Reality”. This Sunday marks a rare and powerful celestial moment. A Solar Eclipse at 29° Virgo is arriving just a month after the 0° Virgo New Moon, forming a unique and transformative sequence. This event, which follows the 15° Pisces Lunar Eclipse on September 7th, is the second of the season's eclipses and a call for profound change. The energy of this eclipse asks us to release our need for external validation and our reliance on rigid, outdated structures. It is a powerful invitation to embrace the natural flow of life and to act on your true desires without fear or hesitation. As Sue Minahan, our founder and host, reminds us, "Essentially life holds beauty in every phase and moment of experiences." This is a time to relish every development and to value yourself and others as you intentionally weave a life that holds this focus. The 29°05’ Virgo Partial Solar Eclipse cosmic energies peak on 22 September at 3:53:41 a.m. EDT (Washington DC) and 7:53:51 a.m. UT (Greenwich, UK). The Archetypal Symbols panel synthesizes astrology, numerology, tarot, Jyotish Nakshatra, and Sabian Symbols—a mystical imagery set serving as a unique tool for personal exploration and astrological insight.
