Media Is The Big Trigger Word

These days the word media triggers all kinds of responses. We think we’re living in a new age. IIn fact the medium may have changed but the message is the same. Learn more in New-Media-Same-Message-Bob Davis Podcast 929.

TV Shows and You Tube

First of all I’ve been watching a lot of clips from old TV shows on You Tube.

Miss The Old Days?

Second, saw a meme on social media the other day. Seems like we miss the old days, when there were only a few trusted sources when it came to news.

Have Things Really Changed That Much?

Certainly there is a nostalgia for the old ways and the old days for older Americans. However it begs the question, have things really changed?

New Media Same Message

In New-Media-Same-Message-Bob Davis Podcast 929, some easy talk about those old days plus some observations about the current time frame.

Media Outlets and Choices

For example back in the day most people might have been able to get two local newspapers, three or four local TV stations and a few local radio stations. Commentary was available on the editorial pages and a few news magazines.

Big Audiences Back In The Day

Even more audiences were larger for those few sources. There were no smart phones, computers or Internet.

Digital Age Changed Everything Right?

Due to the advent of cable, internet, computers and smart phones we now live in what we call the ‘digital age’.

The Message Was Always To Conform

During the so called old days media served an important purpose. Among other things, it was a tool to encourage people to conform.

New Platforms Different Mission

Finally the truth is we have the same number of major platforms we had back in the day. The difference is these platforms provide an opportunity for millions to be heard and seen.

We’re Still Pushed To Conform

However today’s supposedly complex media in the same vein as the old, pushes people to conform.

Tribes, Villages, Birds of A Feather

We speak to our tribe and not everyone. Our instinct to conform is reinforced by social media and other platforms.

The Message Is Manipulation and Control And We’re Still Buying It

In short no matter how sophisticated apparently we’re still ripe for manipulation and control.

YouTube Doomer Alert-Super Blue Blood Moon Eclipse-Flat Earth-FEMA-Podcast 696

The end of the world was predicted for September 2017. It did not happen. The doomers are back on YouTube with new timelines and predictions. Find out what they are in YouTube Doomer Alert-Super Blue Blood Moon Eclipse-Flat Earth-FEMA-Podcast 696.

Truth Tellers

I spend a lot of time on YouTube. It’s great entertainment. Some people believe YouTube creators are truth tellers. YouTube is one of the only places on the Internet you’ll find details on the Flat Earth, Hollow Earth, FEMA camps, and the super blue blood moon eclipse coming up at the end of January.

Details The Mainstream Media Doesn’t Report

Therefore I wonder whether viewers distinguish between story telling for entertainment and actual news. Especially relevant are details missing in day to day news reports. Details revealed on YouTube truth teller channels. We’ll talk about it in YouTube Doomer Alert-Super Blue Blood Moon Eclipse-Flat Earth-FEMA-Podcast 696.

Most noteworthy are missile alerts in Hawaii and Japan, the closing of Sam’s Club stores across the country and the flu virus. What details are the normal media channels missing about these stories?

Alien Satellite

Most of all an alien satellite has been over our heads for thousands of years. Furthermore aliens have been transmitting information to Star Seeds. Hear what they say in YouTube Doomer Alert-Super Blue Blood Moon Eclipse-Flat Earth-FEMA-Podcast 696.

Sam’s Club Closing

While this is going on, the global elite plan to use disease and war to get rid of billions of us. We will be herded into closed retail centers and FEMA camps around the country. Furthermore the flu virus is just the beginning of the end.

End Times Update

As a result it is especially comforting to know that the timelines for the end times and the return of Christ have been updated. With the super blue blood moon eclipse on January 31st comes the beginning of the end.

Wake Up America!

In conclusion YouTube creators show us a side of society we don’t often see. Fears of disease, war, tyranny, famine. We get details we never knew about on stories we see and hear everyday. Most noteworthy is the question of whether this is a good thing or a bad thing.

Comedy Is A Funny Business-Joleen Lunzer-Podcast 686

On any given weekend in this country local comedy clubs are full. Comedy TV shows and tours are big business. Breaking in to the comedy business, though, is no joke. Find out why in Comedy Is A Funny Business-Joleen Lunzer-Podcast 686.

Doing What You Love Is The Hardest Thing

Moreover, one of the themes of the Bob Davis Podcasts is following your passion. Sometimes doing what you love is the hardest thing. When it comes to the entertainment business, stand up comedy has to be one of the most difficult pursuits to succeed in.

Comedy Is Big Business

Sure. We all know the stars of comedy. Especially relevant is the fact that there are many comedians in the business enjoying success and working their way up. My friend Joleen Lunzer is one of them. Writer. Podcaster. Blogger. Stand Up. Meet her in Comedy Is A Funny Business-Joleen Lunzer-Podcast 686.

Grounded in Saint Paul

Now living in Los Angeles, Joleen has barnstormed across the world and has been a resident stand up in Minneapolis and Saint Paul, Phoenix and Las Vegas. While there are many in the business with an LA or New York orientation, Lunzer’s roots in Saint Paul and the midwest keep her grounded when it comes to what’s funny.

Politics In Comedy

These days doing stand up can be a political minefield. How do you play to an audience full of people from different political tribes and still have a good time? We talk about it in Comedy Is A Funny Business-Joleen Lunzer-Podcast 686.

Still A Minnesota Wild Fan

Finally, following your passion can be a challenge. There are some good nuts and bolts lessons for future writers, podcasters and comedians in this podcast. The main takeaway? Maintaining your roots, especially if you’re from the midwest, can help you through the hard parts. By the way, Joleen is still a Minnesota Wild fan.
