Podcasting In A World Of Propaganda

I stay up all night. Especially these days. Time for a walk and talk podcast about podcasting. Learn more in Podcasting-In-Propaganda-Maelstrom-Bob Davis Podcast 921.

Podcasting

First of all I don’t often talk about podcasting. Above all this medium has taken me from one place to another in life.

Propaganda

Especially relevant? I don’t think I have ever seen amount of propaganda we’re exposed to now.

Anxiety and Negative Thoughts

In addition new research shows people in the United States are experiencing high levels of anxiety and negative thoughts.

Trauma

To hear a my podcast about the effects of trauma click here.

Uncertainty Rules

Also I think our biggest problem is the not knowing outcomes.

Walking and Talking Is Good

Consequently it’s always good to do a walk and talk.

Content Creators Struggling

My thoughts as a content creator are especially relevant.

Wading Through Crap

Even more how do content creators thread our way through unprecedented levels of propaganda.

Won’t Tell You What To Think

Furthermore I refuse to tell subscribers and listeners what to think.

Doing Our Homework To Avoid Mass Manipulation

I’ve explained how we can do our own homework. In addition I’ve shown how social media can be used for mass manipulation.

Won’t Follow The Audience’s Lead

Certainly I could tell audiences what they want to hear. Everyone else does, right?

Deeper Into The Darkness

To detail every little rift and latest conspiracy or story making headlines only takes us deeper into the darkness

Leading Rather Than Following

In Podcasting-In-Propaganda-Maelstrom-Bob Davis Podcast 921 I give you two unexpected examples of people who refused to follow their audiences and how they became leaders.

How Do We Get Out Of This Mess?

Finally it seems to me what we need is a way to start thinking how we’re going to get out of this mess we’re in.

Fussin’ and Fighting Won’t Cut It

Fighting about the latest outrage only takes us deeper into the darkness.

Change-Gonna-Come-Bob Davis Podcast 920

Change Gonna Come

First of all we all want this to be over. Real Talk? Not likely to be over anytime soon. Changes are coming and only the strong will survive. Learn why I say this in Change-Gonna-Come-Bob Davis Podcast 920.

A National Trauma

What’s especially relevant is we’re experiencing a collective national trauma.

Moreover being in a traumatic state of mind does not lead to good decisions.

What Helps…What Doesn’t

Arguing over things we can’t prove. Acting out of emotion. Believing in personalities. Grasping at straws. None of these actions in our present state of mind will result in good things happening.

How To Address Trauma and Change

Certainly in this podcast I describe the signs of trauma. In addition I will share action steps we can all take to reduce the impact of the three types of trauma many of us exposed to, at the very least.

1930’s America

While dealing with trauma is important I also want to share some stories of pain and difficulty in my life. Furthermore a look back at the US before the 1930’s.

Great Depression Hardships

It’s probably fair to say that as a country we haven’t experienced anything close to the hardships of the great depression in the so called modern age. Until now.

It’s almost a foregone conclusion that we are about to have that experience.

Consequently it helps me to watch newly remastered film and audio from back in the day to see what life looked like in color. Even more taking a second look at life challenges also helps. We’ll do that too in Change-Gonna-Come-Bob Davis Podcast 920.

This kind of crisis is tough on all of us.

Normal Takes On A New Meaning

Also I have the distinct impression when it’s over, normal will take on a whole new meaning.

Iowa Barnstorming and Texas Beaches Seem Like Another Time Now

Finally it’s hard to believe less than 16 weeks ago I was barnstorming Iowa and heading to Texas on the back roads. That seems like years ago now.

Change Is Going To Come, and like my mom always said, Only The Strong Survive.

Working-In-The-Texas-Oil-Patch-Bob Davis Podcast 919

Working In The Texas Oil Patch

First of all we need a break from all the bad news and heavy energy these days. Time to look up my friend Don Anger for Working-In-The-Texas-Oil-Patch-Bob Davis Podcast 919.

Journey To Working Man

Don’s journey from Twin Cities radio guy to oil patch working man is a great story. Even more, no matter how tough things get it doesn’t get Don down. He shows up.

Positive Attitude

Having a positive attitude is most noteworthy. Right now this guy is sleeping in his car and working fourteen hour days. What does he want to talk about?

Vikings and Van Halen

Favorite hometown teams and music.

That certainly sounds pretty good to me right now.

What Does Work Mean To You?

Don and I talk about what works means. Whether it’s bagging groceries, slinging hash or pulling oil out of the ground in a world gone crazy. We hit all the topics.

Road Warriors Unite

It’s especially relevant that both of us are road warriors. Anger lives in Arizona and spends three weeks in Texas in the fields, and heads home for six days off every month.

Moreover my crazy back road trips are legendary.

No Corona Talk Please

In Working-In-The-Texas-Oil-Patch-Bob Davis Podcast 919 you won’t hear any predictions about the pandemic, the economy, jabs at Trump, the Media or Democrats or whining about quarantines.

Why Bad Asses Love Solitude

Finally you will hear a couple of guys talking about our love of solitude, work, rock and roll, and Texas.

Texas!

Can I say it again? Texas!

A Break From The Madness

In conclusion, we all need a break every now and then from the madness. Hanging out with Don was my break this week.

What was yours?
