Conscious business - Jeremy Hunter: Untaught Essentials for Business Humans

https://resources.soundstrue.com/podcast/jeremy-hunter-untaught-essentials-for-business-humans/

How do you transform your mind, and how do you do it in real time amidst the challenges of work and life? How do you remain openhearted and generous in a competitive or even cutthroat environment? These aren’t usually the kinds of questions that businesspeople ask themselves. Yet it’s become Jeremy Hunter’s mission to help today’s entrepreneurs and organizational leaders realize the incredible value of asking—and answering—these deep questions.



In this podcast, Tami Simon speaks with the core faculty member of Sounds True’s Inner MBA® program and a renowned authority on mindfulness and leadership about the “untaught essentials for business humans,” discussing the lifesaving practice of meditation; training our perception (and not just our intellect); why managers must learn how to manage themselves; placing a high value on attention and presence; examining how you construct your experience; using spiritual tools and teachings to create real business results; unconditional love; developing somatic intelligence; why it’s so important to be grounded as a leader; setting the emotional tone for the group you work with; activating our collaborative superpowers by caring about and meeting each other’s needs; transforming fear and anxiety into vitality and joy; pleasure, enjoyment, and recovering from “Frivolity Deficiency Syndrome”; acknowledging what is beautiful in your world; gratitude vs. appreciation; the opportunity for businesspeople in our times of uncertainty and accelerating change; creating a relationship with solidity; letting go of the beliefs and behaviors that no longer fit; and more.



Note: This episode originally aired on Sounds True One, where these special episodes of Insights at the Edge are available to watch live on video and with exclusive access to Q&As with our guests. Learn more at join.soundstrue.com.

Dave Emory’s For the Record

At Dave’s suggestion, we are running an archival edition of the program that he pulled up because of the atomic bomb anniversaries and the interest in the realities behind the recent film release “Oppenheimer” by Christopher Nolan. This focuses on research about an explosion at Port Chicago. Please note that the email address given in the audio, portchicago.org, is no longer valid; it leads to a Japanese language site which doesn’t appear to relate to the topic at hand. Dave recorded the original in February and cited the connection to Black History Month, which will become evident in the program; appropriate then to run it not only in relation to the atomic bomb anniversaries, but during Black August, a month of commemoration and remembrance of Black freedom fighters, martyrs, and incarcerated political prisoners.



FOR THE RECORD (58+ min)



FTR#1307 Interview with Peter Vogel (Reprise of FTR#444 Because of the Attention Generated by the Movie “Oppenheimer”)

POSTED BY DAVE EMORY ⋅ AUGUST 12, 2023



FTR#1307



Introduction: Following up information presented in Miscellaneous Archive Show M23 and FTRs 129, 163, this broadcast features the landmark research of Peter Vogel on the Port Chicago explosion of 7/17/1944. One of the largest man-made disasters in history, the Port Chicago explosion claimed the lives of 320 sailors, 220 of them African Americans. Subsequently, African-American sailors refused to continue loading ammunition at Port Chicago and were convicted of Mutiny. Officially the explosion of conventional munitions aboard an ammunition ship, the E.A. Bryan, the Port Chicago blast was actually the test of an early atomic weapon, the autocatalytic uranium hydride lateral implosion experimental device—named the Mark II. After relating Peter’s long odyssey exploring the explosion and the official dissembling that surrounds the event, the program relates the fascinating documentary trail confirming the nature of the explosion and the chronology of this early, significant step in the development of the atomic weapons.



Program Highlights Include: Peter’s proof that a sufficient amount of fissionable material for testing a fission weapon was available in 1944 (despite official pronouncements to the contrary); the negative reactions of Edward Teller (father of the H‑bomb) and Donald Kerr (director of Los Alamos National Laboratory) to Peter’s inquiries about Port Chicago; the tremendous interest of the Los Alamos National Laboratory in this (supposedly conventional) explosion; the background of Captain William Parsons (the point man for the Los Alamos research on Port Chicago); the characteristics of the explosion that pinpoint it as being a nuclear fission blast; correspondence among some of the principals in the Manhattan Project confirming that the Port Chicago explosion was a test of the Mark II; indications that the Germans were working on a uranium hydride weapon; Soviet espionage on the Manhattan Project that indicated awareness of the test of Mark II; the possible significance of the Port Chicago explosion for the revocation of Robert Oppenheimer’s security clearance; the significance of the Port Chicago explosion in the history of African-American civil liberties.



Note: This description is formatted by presenting the questions that Dave asked Peter Vogel, and then a synoptic overview of Peter’s response. For more detailed information about the Port Chicago explosion, see The Last Wave from Port Chicago: https://www.google.com/books/edition/The_Last_Wave_from_Port_Chicago/xaWstgAACAAJ?hl=en

Two weeks before Hiroshima and Nagasaki Day 2023 Paul Jay and Peter Kuznick had a conversation about the just released film Oppenheimer by Christopher Nolan. They acknowledged the importance of the film at a time when the risk of a nuclear war is the highest since the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962. But they also raised the question why it is still possible to claim that the bombing of Nagasaki and Hiroshima saved lives by ending WWII.


Thanks to Paul Jay, host and co-founder of The Analysis, for inviting Peter Kuznick, professor of history and director of the Nuclear Studies Institute at American University and co-author with Oliver Stone of the Showtime series, The Untold History of the United States.

Sounds True Insights at the Edge podcast with Tami Simon

Ruby Warrington, Women without Children

https://resources.soundstrue.com/podcast/ruby-warrington-women-without-kids/

Whether or not to become a parent is a central question in life. There are many factors that influence the decision, some of which are out of our control. Yet foregoing motherhood, for any reason, can lead to painful stigmatization and conflict (within and without).



In this podcast, Tami Simon speaks with thought leader and author Ruby Warrington, about her profound book Women Without Kids: The Revolutionary Rise of an Unsung Sisterhood—and the long-overdue conversations we need to begin having as a society around this complicated topic. Tune in for a rich discussion of: the motherhood spectrum; the interwoven nature of choice and circumstance; the lack of support for—and the devaluing of—mothering in overall society; the global slowdown in reproduction rates for the past century; the concept of a birth strike; making peace with your choice to remain childless; fulfillment and being true to oneself; generativity and our sense of legacy; the “existential FOMO” that childless women may encounter; the complicated—and not always unconditional—love between a parent and child; regretting motherhood; the unfinished work of the feminist movement; healing the false divide between moms and non-moms; and more.



Ruby Warrington is a British-born author, editor, and publishing consultant. Recognized as a true thought leader in the wellness space, Ruby has the unique ability to identify issues that are destined to become part of the cultural narrative. Her previous books include Material Girl, Mystical World; Sober Curious; and The Sober Curious Reset. For more, visit rubywarrington.com.

Dave Emory For the Record #1301 Who Killed Terry Yeakey?

https://spitfirelist.com/for-the-record/ftr1301-who-killed-terry-yeakey/

This program investigates the suspicious death of Terry Yeakey, an Oklahoma City policeman who was one of the first responders in the Oklahoma City bombing of 1995. Critical of the official version of the story, he was found shot in the head–an alleged suicide. His death may very well have been a murder.



Key Points of Discussion and Analysis: Terry Yeakey’s belief that the official version of the bombing was a cover-up; His own investigative efforts; Apparent efforts to thwart his investigation; The disappearance of key reports critical of the official version of the bombing; Numerous witness accounts of a second person in the Ryder truck carrying the bomb; Apparent surveillance of individuals critical of the official version and break-ins at their residences; Indications that Terry Yeakey may have been tortured and hung; Thwarting of the efforts of other first responders whose accounts differed with the official version; Recap of the allegations against Andreas Strassmeier by ATF informant Carol Howe; Links between the OK City bombing and other terrorist incidents.

Historian Peter Kuznick joins Mickey to discuss the new Christopher Nolan movie “Oppenheimer.” While his overall evaluation is positive, Kuznick notes that the movie fails to address the crucial fact that there was no military need to drop the atomic bomb on Japan. Kuznick also reminds listeners that had Henry Wallace not been replaced as Vice-President by Harry Truman, Wallace would have succeeded to the presidency upon FDR’s death in April 1945, and history would’ve taken a different path (Kuznick believes that Wallace would not have used the bomb, nor started the Cold War). In the second half of the show, Peter Phillips and Bill Tiwald remind listeners of the catastrophe that even a “limited” nuclear war would unleash on humanity, as well as the human and financial costs of maintaining nuclear stockpiles. They explain how New Mexico has borne a disproportionate share of the nuclear burden, and talk about an event they helped organize — the Albuquerque Peace Festival taking place on August 5.

Notes:

Peter Kuznick is Professor of History at American University in Washington, DC, and director of AU’s Nuclear Studies Institute.

We talk about somatic or embodied awareness and intelligence, and how to thrive by connecting and grounding in our bodies, even in times of cataclysmic crises. And how the embodied practice of thriving in difficult times is also the best medicine for the environment and the planet, as well as each other.



The Magical Mystery Tour is a show that dives into the heart of things exploring new ideas and new ways of seeing and being in this wondrous crazy world we share together.
