Your-Apocalypse-Now-Bob Davis Podcast 1090

Your Apocalypse Now

Firstly I say it’s your apocalypse now because everyone seems to be on the doom train these days. Learn more in Your-Apocalypse-Now-Bob Davis Podcast 1090.

Negative About The Future

Secondly I will tell you why I think everyone is so negative about the future in this podcast.

However not in this blog.

End Times

You have to listen to find out what’s causing this fascination with ‘the end times’.

Favorite End Time Themes

Whether it’s the Earth burning up, Nuclear War, Mass Starvation, Economic Collapse and certainly the return of Jesus, everyone seems to have their favorite end times theme.

5D World Too

Even hippies are getting into the act with their theories about the so called 5D world.

Friendly Aliens

Or the arrival of benevolent aliens who just want to help us.

Catastrophe In The Making

Of course there are catastrophes happening and in the making almost every day.

End Times Band Wagons

And the prognosticators, tarot card readers, economic experts, former generals and lesser ranks jumping on whatever end times band wagon seems to be going by.

Adhere To These Theories

But what’s amazing is how many people adhere to these theories.

And once one identifies with some theory one feels the need to defend and promote it.

Low Level Depression

Consequently we all seem to be in a constant low level depression.

Tired Of It

In short I am getting tired of it.

Dystopia

To begin with you’ll not find a shortage of dystopian literature and movies in my collection.

But every now and then it gets to be a little too much.

Explanation

Therefore the theme of Your-Apocalypse-Now-Bob Davis Podcast 1090 is an explanation for this negativity.

Not Insurmountable

That is to say while there are challenges in our country and the world they aren’t insurmountable.

And there’s a very good reason so many content creators and subscribers are loving messages of the end times.

They’re Right

In conclusion the reason is they’re right!

The end is coming.

Details in the podcast.

Algorithm-Slaves-Bob Davis Podcast 1089

Algorithm Slaves

Firstly these days content creators seem intent on following their audiences. Learn more in Algorithm-Slaves-Bob Davis Podcast 1089..

Relevance

Secondly that is to say relevance for a creator is more and more about what the audience wants.

Certainly not what the artist or creator wants.

And today’s algorithms often determine the audience.

What Is Creating?

But what if creating is about leading the audience?

To clarify sooner or later creators have to bite the hands that feed them.

Dangers Of A Narrow Audience

Or face an increasingly narrow audience although it may be increasing in size.

Even more when likes and shares and subscriptions become the order of the day why not have AI do everything?

Role Of The Artist

In short what is the role of the human artist?

And what is the process of creativity?

Finally it’s my perception algorithm slaves build silos of opinion which actually limit objective discussion.

In addition what does one learn if they stay in that same silo forever?

Therefore it’s easy to see why many people think on the same tracks and perform in the same ways, in the end.

Grow

As a result creators do not grow.

Imprisoned By An Audience

Likewise I have certainly had my struggles being imprisoned by an audience, back in the day.

It’s About Control

However I’m grateful to have arrived at a place where the audience and the ‘shoulds’ don’t control what I do.

Didn’t Want To Talk About This

In Algorithm-Slaves-Bob Davis Podcast 1089 I take on a subject I really didn’t want to talk about.

Craven

On the other hand the craven nature of creators on almost every subject suggests it’s time to talk about this.

Audience Dictators

Finally listeners should not be required to dictate content.

Or even asked about it.

Yet you see and hear this all the time.

Likes and Shares

Subsequently likes and shares, and subs, define the future for those who ‘influence’ society as a whole.

Or so they think.

Thus Algorithm-Slaves-Bob Davis Podcast 1089.

Breaking Out

In conclusion content creators might consider breaking out of the self imposed tyranny.

Who Knows Best

In short when it comes to the very human nature of creating, the audience doesn’t always know best.

And neither does the algorithm.

Summer-Sounds-2023-Bob Davis Podcast 1088

Summer Sounds 2023

Firstly it’s the peak of winter over North America and therefore time for a Summer Sounds Podcast. Put your headphones on for Summer-Sounds-2023-Bob Davis Podcast 1088.

Recording Summer Sounds For Years

Secondly since around 2015 I have been recording summer sounds.

Spring Is Around The Corner

And then when spring seems right around the corner.

But Winter Is Still Here

But winter proves resilient.

Time For Summer Sounds

It’s time for a Summer Sounds Podcast.

Immersed In Summer

Above all listening to these summer sounds podcasts immerse the listener in summer.

Colorado

Whether it is a beautiful Mountain Town in Colorado.

Ten Thousand Feet Up

Or the delicious sound of the wind on a ten thousand foot mountain peak.

Lakeside

Certainly the sounds lakeside.

Bugs

The bug and birds.

Truck Stops and Lawn Mowers

Finally a truck stop in the southwest somewhere, a lawn mower and a drum circle.

Monsoon

Of course there’s a full on summer monsoon storm in Utah and the sound of the crackling campfire.

No Talk

Furthermore after the introduction there’s no talk until we say goodbye near the end of this podcast.

Winter Can Be Just Too Much

To sum up when we get this close to warmer weather it seems like winter can be just too much.

Loam Of Summer’s Eve Beckons

Even more the loam of a summer evening is immersive and peaceful in the midst of a difficult time.

Love Producing Summer Sounds

I enjoy producing these podcasts as much as I hope you enjoy listening to them.

A Life Outside

In addition now that I travel full time I am outside all the time and all through the seasons.

Grateful For The Back Roads

Above all I am grateful I’ve had the opportunity to experience the mountain peaks, small towns, national parks and back roads of the United States these past years.

Wild Things

In the same vein there’s a lot of wild things to see and hear.

Great To Share

And it’s great to be able to share with subscribers and listeners.

Original Content

In conclusion it gets more difficult every podcast to do something original.

Certainly when you’ve done over a thousand podcasts.

And when the standard talk topics we hear out there don’t fit in this venue anymore.

Passion For Travel

On the other hand I know we all share the passion for travel and the desire to hit the road.

Even if it’s just every now and then.

Especially during the glorious summer months.

Headphones On

In short grab a beverage, put on your headphones and turn it up.

Prepare to be transported to the peak of summer.

Even if it’s just forty minutes.
