Talk Cosmos 09-07-25 Planet Buzz - ECLIPSE SEASON - Unleashes Change
Planet Buzz’s episode unearths '"ECLIPSE SEASON Unleashes Change" telling the resetting dynamics of the Pisces Lunar and the Virgo Solar Eclipses. Join us next Sunday to discuss the powerful lunar and solar eclipses. The Pisces Total Eclipse event, visible to 85% of the world outside of the Americas, holds a multitude of dynamic celestial patterns and is already creating a strong emotional pull. The eclipse will last for an hour and 22 minutes, and it's a perfect time for release. This particular lunar eclipse is at the North Pisces Node, a placement that encourages us to release what blocks compassion and to adopt a more spiritual view of our lives and the planet. As the Earth's shadow obscures the Moon from the Sun's light, we have a unique opportunity to reset our emotional attachments and direction. The Virgo partial Solar Eclipse will be visible from the South Pacific including New Zealand and parts of Antarctica. But here, 85% of the sun will be hidden behind the moon. At 29° Virgo, it adds to the paradox of energies of a Solar eclipse at the releasing South Node, besides the energetic degree one degree from the Vernal Equinox resetting new balances. However, this strongly powerful celestial event involves interweaving patterns of adjustments resolved over time. No matter, it initiates a map ahead for the next year to build on actions now. Talk Cosmos Planet Buzz connects with a myriad of new or returning Special Guests from around the USA and parts of the world contemplating potent subjects concerning us all.

Wisdom From The Wardrobe 08-11-25 Kibbe, Closet Chaos & The Style Archetype
This week on Wisdom from the Wardrobe, the team is letting us know we are in Preppy Purgatory as the revival of preppy style is apparently upon us, only this time it’s less “country club crisp” and more “muted collegiate chic.” With a 66% surge in popularity, it looks like polos, pleats, and penny loafers are making a polished comeback, but without shouting “quiet luxury” or blasting “loud luxury.” Stacy’s already pledging allegiance to this sartorial sorority. But that’s just the warm-up… The main style syllabus dives into Body Archetypes, the style framework that’s suddenly trending again. Think Kibbe’s 13 archetypes, personality-infused silhouettes, and style essence breakdowns that aim to decode dressing. But is it a guiding light or just another confusing fashion rabbit hole? The team debates whether this system actually empowers personal style or just makes getting dressed feel like passing a pop quiz. Press play for witty banter, trend talk, and some seriously stylish food for thought.

Wisdom From The Wardrobe 08-04-25 Hot Sales, Cool Styles
From Birkin to Boatkin, this episode Wisdom from the Wardrobe podcast serves up style headlines and shopping dilemmas. The team kicks things off with Hermès news: the original Birkin bag just sold in 10 minutes for $10 million dollars (yes, you read that right). But while fashion royalty makes headlines, LL Bean’s upcycled “Boatkin” tote is sparking debate, is it homage, irony, or straight-up infringement? Then, we dive headfirst into fall fashion previews and early shopping sales like the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. Are these so-called “fall previews” helpful wardrobe planning tools, or do they just trip us up while we’re still sipping iced lattes in linen? The team debates whether stocking up mid-summer is smart strategy or style sabotage. Tune in for witty banter, fashion hot takes, and a reminder that sometimes the heat of summer makes it hard to think about coats, no matter how chic they are.

Eclipses are a time for redefining and starting fresh," explains founder and host, Sue Minahan. “This month is a chance for us to discover how we can serve our truth and nurture those around us. As we move through the Gemini 3rd quarter moon, we'll be thinking about how to fix what's broken before the final curtain call of this cycle: the solar eclipse at 29 degrees Virgo.” 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.

Mantz & Mitchell - 08-23-25 - The Anthology of Author Matt Shea

These gifts motivate him to write about the trials of everyday life for the common man. Matt Shea is a developing author who is greatly inspired by the writings of Andy Griffith and focuses on the common folk that small towns are made of. Website(s): https://www.mattsheabooks.net/

DAMTT 08-23-25 Baddies, Bats and Blindspots, oui?
DAMTT: Baddies, Bats and Blindspots, oui? Ready for another dose of conversational chaos? After a brief break, Eric and Stacy return refreshed and ready to tackle the tangents. Eric recounts his adventures, from playing a gig at The Valley with Battersea (and selling another coveted T-shirt!), to kayaking with “the girlfriend” and spotting sea lions and celebrating his dad’s birthday over a fish-leaping lunch. Stacy, meanwhile, faces down two surprise bats hiding in her patio umbrella—no bueno, but plenty of guano. The duo swaps stories about gluttonous grocery trips and cross-border sweet treats, including Stacy’s Canadian wine gums (not “gummies”—don’t worry, border guards, they’re THC-free!). That leads to a detour into UK canned cocktails, notably Eric’s preferred Harvey Wallbanger. This week, Stacy brings a burning question to Dear Crabby about kids and cursing, while Eric’s “effing and Jeffing” in ALL CAPS with online customer service cements his “bad boy” reputation. For once, Stacy checks off a Cultural Blindspot by finally watching This is Spinal Tap—turns out it really does go to 11. Eric revisits RoboCop (which he touts as “lightning in a bottle”) and champions The Hudsucker Proxy as a criminally underrated classic. To wrap up, Stacy and Eric ponder which third language they’d learn, after English and high school choices. Eric abandoned Japanese when his linguistic partner abandoned him, while Stacy dreams of French—just to deliver a little rudeness back. DAMTT is on Facebook and Instagram as @dontaskmetotalk.

In this episode, you receive a mini-masterclass depicting what memoir is, who became well-known, which memoirs stood the test of time - and most of all - the benefits to you as a reader of memoir.

The Loretta Brown Show - 08-21-25 - Mary Magdalene’s Untold Story
Today, Loretta welcomes Renee Blodgett and Anthony Compagnone! Renee Blodgett and Anthony Compagnone are the co-authors of Magdalene’s Journey: Mary Magdalene’s Untold Story and Teachings, released in January 2025. This visionary, fictional, historical tale follows Cambridge-based Rochelle and her partner Angelo, whose lives are forever changed after receiving visitations from souls who once walked the earth over two thousand years ago. Filled with personal revelation and timeless wisdom, the story explores the life of Mary Magdalene—Miriam of Magdala—her relationship with Yeshua of Nazareth, and her deep connection with both male and female apostles. Magdalene’s Journey challenges the filtered, patriarchal narrative that has long defined Abrahamic religions and diminished women’s roles in history. It offers a liberating vision—one that rebalances the masculine and feminine energies within us all and urges us to reconsider our very definitions of truth, reality, and consciousness. Renee Blodgett and Anthony Compagnone are also the founders of Blue Soul Earth®, where they help raise global consciousness through courses, workshops, retreats, and their Blue Soul Summit® video series, which bridges science and spirituality by featuring thought leaders from around the world. Their teachings focus on Universal Consciousness, heart-centered living, and the balance of divine masculine and feminine energies. Website: https://magdalenesjourney.com/

In this episode, JD Wyneken and Ashley Knebel explore why our brains are wired to avoid mistakes at all costs, why that avoidance often holds us back, and how embracing “micro-fails” can actually supercharge resilience. With stories, laughter, and science, they show how tripping up can be the best way to move forward.

He balances Indian, Canadian and American culture, loves helping those who are new to North America and looks forward to the interesting stories that his interview guests bring each week.
