It entitles you to sit there as long as you want… that means of course, that things can develop and you can sit there and watch people, and sit there and read your novel or sit there and write your novel. It’s such a luxury in today’s world.” Arne Gast “ I see that my (S) curve is flattening when i become at ease; when I feel like I got this, I like this, that’s the moment the inner voice starts saying… hmm.. let’s do another near-death experience, start anew somewhere.” Satish Kumar “Whatever you see… is divine, is sacred. There is no separation between humans and nature and no separation between God and nature. This is the beauty of Indian culture: everything is God, everything is divine, everything is nature. This is what I learned from my Mother.” Carl Honoré “In the blink of an eye, I went from goal-scorer to Grandad… age took on this terrible power… defining and limiting me. I just thought this can’t be right. Why was I feeling a door was being slammed in my face just because of the numbers on my birth certificate?” Holly Cullen-Davies “Singing is proven to release endorphins in the same way as exercise is and it’s proven to release more endorphins when you do it with other people and I just see these people light up.” Links Libby DeLana Web: https://libbydelana.com/ Twitter: @parkhere Instagram: @parkhere This Morning Walk: https://www.thismorningwalk.com/ Tom Morley Website: https://tommorley.com/ Twitter: @TomMorley Instagram: _tommorley_ Philipp Blom Blomcast: https://blomcast.buzzsprout.com/ Website: https://philipp-blom.eu/cms/en/ Arne Gast Website: https://aberkyn.com/humans/arne-gast/ Satish Kumar Website: https://www.resurgence.org/satish-kumar/ Carl Honore Instagram: @carlhonore Instagram: @carlhonore Twitter: @carlhonore YouTube:@carlhonore Facebook: @carlhonore and @carlhonorepage LinkedIn: @carlhonore Pinterest: @carlhonore TED Talk 1: Slow TED Talk 2: Age TED Course: How to slow down Holly Cullen-Davies Web: https://www.concertsdontcosttheearth.org/ Web: http://...

    Wanderful: Inspiration On The Go... with Holly Cullen-Davies
    2023/04/21
    “Find what you’re best at and do that” Holly Cullen-Davies is a pianist, singer, choir leader, environmental campaigner and curator. Holly has been performing regularly since the age of six and working as a freelance musician for over fifteen years. She studied at the CNR de Lyon, France, The Royal Northern College of Music and The Guildhall School of Music and Drama studying with Kasia Borowiak, Carole Presland, Charles Owen and Martin Roscoe. She set up Live Junction which received an Emerging Excellence Award from Help Musicians UK in 2013 and The Kids’ Concert Company which has been funded by The Arts Council for the last 4 years to take professional concerts in to primary schools. More recently she set up Concerts Don't Cost The Earth to bring together the two things she is most passionate about: live music and protecting the planet for our next generation. Concerts Don't Cost The Earth supports both musicians and our precious world at the same time. You can find out more about how to support it or get involved here: www.concertsdontcosttheearth.org Time Line 00.00 - 00.44 Intro 00.45 - 05.13 Introducing Holly Cullen-Davies 05.17 - 07.20 The inspiration behind 'Concerts Don’t Cost The Earth’ 07.35 - 09.02 The role music can play in having difficult conversations about the climate 09.05 - 12.45 Holly’s musical journey 12.46 - 16.16 Introducing classical music to unusual spaces 17.12 - 21.46 Holly introduces and plays Chick Corea's Children Song no. 6 21.48 - 24.15 The element of surprise and the juxtaposition of unusual things 25.10 - 26.54 The etymology of ‘concert’ 26.55 - 31.37 What fuels Holly’s activism? 32.22 - 34.47 Find what you’re best at and do that: being the change you want to see 34.50 - 36.01 Subsidise the trains campaign - an activist’s song 36.03 - 41.27 Holly introduces and plays Alberto Ginastera's Danza del gaucho matrero (Dance of the outlaw cowboy) from Danzas Argentinas 41.30 - 43.50 How people can organise a ‘Concert Don’t Cost The Earth’ concert 44.00 - 47.34 David introduces ‘pogging’ 47.35 - 48.00 Outro Quotes “I’ve always loved the intimate concerts… up close… where you can hear the workings of the instrument.” (Holly) “Concerts Don’t Cost The Earth exist to start conversations about the climate crisis through the power of music.” (Holly) “What I really got a kick out of was introducing classical music to people that didn’t usually hear it and putting it in spaces where you didn’t usually hear it. I did a lot of gigs early on where I was the classical act in a cabaret of other acts and it kind of blew people away.” (Holly) “I hate people looking at a programme during a concert. I think that’s a shame for them to be sidetracked. I’m hoping that I’m compelling enough as a pianist that they’re just listening.” (Holly) I want people to feel the breath, the moment between the pieces and not know what’s coming next.” (Holly) “Every percentage of a degree is absolutely critical and going over 1.5 or certainly going over 2.0 degrees will have catastrophic runaway effects that could lead to the end of all life on earth.” (Holly) “When we do risk assessment in other parts of life: medicine, building bridges, flying aeroplanes… we don’t take risks. If the scientists are saying this could be a disaster, we don’t administer that drug, we don’t build that bridge, we don’t fly that aeroplane. And the risk here (climate) is huge. And the answer is we have to stop using fossil fuels… we have to phase them out completely by 2030.” (Holly) Links Holly Cullen Davies (Guest) Web: https://www.concertsdontcosttheearth.org/ Web: http://www.hollycullendavies.com/ Instagram @daviesanddaughters Instagram @thulamamalondon David Pearl (Host) Web: https://www.davidpearl.net Web: https://wanderfulpodcast.com Twitter: @davidpearlhere Instagram: davidpearl_here Andrew Paine (Producer & Audio Engineer) Twitter: @ItPainesMe

  • Wanderful: Inspiration On The Go... with Carl Honoré

    Wanderful: Inspiration On The Go... with Carl Honoré
    2023/03/28
    ‘I think of each year of my life now, as a level… in a game.’ Carl Honoré is a bestselling author, broadcaster and two-time TED speaker. He is also the voice of the Slow Movement. After working with street children in Brazil, Carl covered Europe and South America for the Economist, Observer, Miami Herald, Houston Chronicle, National Post (Canada), Time and other publications. His first book, In Praise of Slow, chronicles the global trend toward putting on the brakes in everything from work to food to parenting. The Financial Times said it is “to the Slow Movement what Das Kapital is to communism”. Carl’s second book, Under Pressure explores how to raise and educate children in a fast world and was hailed by Time as a “gospel of the Slow Parenting movement”. Carl’s third book, The Slow Fix, explores how to tackle complex problems in every walk of life, from health and relationships to business and politics, without falling for superficial, short-term quick fixes. His fourth book, Bolder: How To Age Better And Feel Better About Ageing, is a spirited manifesto against ageism. Carl recently published his first children’s book, It’s The Journey Not the Destination Published in 35 languages, Carl has landed on bestseller lists in many countries. In Praise of Slow was a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week and the inaugural choice for the Huffington Post Book Club. It also featured in a British TV sitcom, Argentina’s version of Big Brother and a TV commercial for the Motorola tablet. Under Pressure was shortlisted for the Writers’ Trust Award, the top prize for non-fiction in Canada. Bolder was also a BBC Radio 4 Book of the Week as well as a Reader’s Digest (UK) Book of the Month. Carl featured in a series for BBC Radio 4 called The Slow Coach in which he helped frazzled, over-scheduled people slow down. He also presented a television show called Frantic Family Rescue on Australia’s ABC 1. Carl lives in London. While researching his first book on slowness he was slapped with a speeding ticket. The Podcast was recorded live at The Kings Place London on the 27th February, 2023. Timeline 00.00 - 00.44 Theme & Intro 00.45 - 03.28 Introducing Carl Honore 03.30 - 07.55 How Carl came to write a book on ageing: The London Jets 07.56 - 10.09 Myth-busting Ageing: The Story of Jacko 10.10 - 13.14 The Effects of Ageism 13.15 - 14.00 The ‘Still' Syndrome 14.00 - 15.44 Inter-Generational Activities 15.45 - 18.00 The ‘Village’ School 18.00 - 23.52 David Pearl - ‘Tanzlied des Pierrots’ by Erich Korngold’s from Die tote Stadt (The Dead City) 23.54 - 32.34 Ageing and Singing: How the voice evolves with age 32.36 - 35.25 How does Carl now feel about age? 35.26 - 37.40 Drawing the line of your life: where do you put the ‘x’? 37.41 - 38.36 David Pearl - ‘Ideale’ by Paolo Tosti (excerpt) 38.38 - 40.15 Epilogue 40.16 - 40.37 End Titles Quotes “All of my books start with an existential crisis.” (Carl) “The thing about ageism is that it falls more heavily on us who are in the later years of life, because it has got tangled up in the cult of youth, the idea that younger is better. Ageing is seen, especially in our western cultures, it is seen as something to be ashamed of, to feel guilty of, to be disgusted by… to deny.” (Carl) “One of my bugbears is the phrase… showing my age. We should be showing off our age” (Carl) ‘When you don’t know people of different ages, into that space rush all the grim toxic stereotypes about ageing. What they do find is that as soon as you start breaking down the silos and mixing people up that the stereotypes start to fall away.” (Carl) “Before writing ‘Bolder’ I was a full card carrying member of the cult of youth. I never would have given my age. I would have low-balled it. I just felt awful about the whole idea of growing older and would have pushed it away. Now I feel genuinely at ease with it.” (Carl) “My metaphor for ageing is a gaming analogy. I think of each year as a level in a game. Right now I’m at level 55. I’m enjoying level 55 to the hilt. I’m gathering as much treasure as I can have. I’m enjoying all the adventures.” (Carl) “Every age has its pros and cons. Every age can be glorious and wonderful but only if we embrace it.” (Carl) Links Carl Honore (Guest) Instagram: @carlhonore Instagram: @carlhonore Twitter: @carlhonore YouTube:@carlhonore Facebook: @carlhonore and @carlhonorepage LinkedIn: @carlhonore Pinterest: @carlhonore TED Talk 1: Slow TED Talk 2: Age TED Course: How to slow down David Pearl (Host) Web: https://www.davidpearl.net Twitter: @davidpearlhere Instagram: davidpearl_here Andrew Paine (Producer & Audio Engineer) Twitter: @ItPainesMe Anthony Ingle (Piano) Website: https://impropera.co.uk Linked In: https://www.linkedin.com/in/anthony-ingle-3339a915/ Fiona Finsbury (Opera Singer & Actor) Instagram: @fionafinsbury Genevieve Tawiah (Performance & Vocal ...

    2023/03/14
    Satish Kumar ‘Goodbye, Rene Descartes!’ Peace-pilgrim, life-long activist, and former monk, Satish Kumar has been inspiring global change for over 50 years. Aged 9, Satish renounced the world and became a wandering Jain monk. Then in his 20s, he undertook a pilgrimage for peace, walking for two years without money from India to America for the cause of nuclear disarmament. Now in his 80s, Satish has devoted his life to campaigning for ecological regeneration, social justice, and spiritual fulfilment. A world-renown author and international speaker, Satish founded The Resurgence Trust, an educational charity that seeks to inform and inspire a just future for all. He was the Editor of the charity’s change-making magazine, Resurgence & Ecologist, for over 40 years, making him the UK's longest-serving editor of the same magazine. He continues to serve this publication as Editor Emeritus and by writing for each and every trailblazing issue. Satish would like to offer you 20% off membership of The Resurgence Trust. When you join, you will receive a range of membership benefits including the hope-inspiring, bi-monthly Resurgence & Ecologist magazine, and support Satish (and the charity he founded) in protecting the future of people and planet.

So I came up with a new trinity for our time and I called it soil, soul and society.” (Satish) “Human beings are literally soil beings. Human comes from the Latin ‘humus’ and humus means soil. So human beings are soil beings. Our bodies are soil transformed.” (Satish) “We are all nature, there is no separation. We have to think about living in harmony with nature and making good use of nature not mis-use of nature, because we are nature.” (Satish) “Don’t trust a philosophy that has not been tested by walking.” (Satish) “When you are walking you are free. You are a free spirit. Your body is free. Your mind is free. You are not bound.” (Satish) “When you are walking for peace, you are putting your body where your mouth is.” (Satish) “My friend and I decided to walk to the four nuclear capitols of the world. So we started from New Deli and we walked to Moscow, Paris, London and Washington DC. 8000 miles. 2.5 years.” (Satish) “If you are walking, even if in a city, if you are walking, you are free. Walk everyday if you want to experience and taste of freedom. When you are walking you carry no burden on your shoulders, you are not worried, you are just walking. By walking you connect with the soil, you connect with your soul, your spirit, your consciousness, your imagination, your answers come when you are walking. All your questions can be answered when you’re walking.” (Satish) “Let go of fear and cultivate trust. Trust everybody and talk to everybody. People are good. Enemies are only creations of the mind.” (Satish) “If you have the state of mind of a pilgrim, then you trust. If hardship comes, if difficulties come, welcome it. This will make you strong. “ (Satish) Links Satish Kumar (Guest) Website: https://www.resurgence.org/satish-kumar/ David Pearl (Host) Website: https://www.davidpearl.net Website: https://www.wanderfulpodcast.com Intagram: @davidpearl_here Andrew Paine (Producer & Audio Engineer) Twitter: @ItPainesMe Instagram: @Sonicoyster

It’s all an experiment we are doing. There are no answers anymore and even the questions are unclear right now.” (Arne) “Be kind with people.” (Arne) “Narrative is one of the most powerful tools we have. It’s a way to really inspire people.” (Arne) “Amplification of the bad news is going up and it limits people from taking agency to say what do I want and what is the world I want to create.” (Arne) “Imagine different futures - let’s use that.” (David) “The story is the first step. I’ve seen it without really being there. Just by thinking we get the medicine.” (Arne) “Dip a toe in the water as an experiment but just keep telling yourself… it’s just an experiment.” (Arne) Links Arne Gast (Guest) Website: https://aberkyn.com/humans/arne-gast/ David Pearl (Host) Website: https://www.davidpearl.net/ Instagram: @davidpearl_here Andrew Paine (Producer & Audio ...

  • Wanderful: Inspiration On The Go... with Philipp Blom

    Wanderful: Inspiration On The Go... with Philipp Blom
    2023/02/14
    Philipp Blom “History is a mess of facts.” Philipp Blom (1970) is a historian and author of several novels, journalism, politics, and philosophy. He also works a radio presenter, documentary film maker and as a public lecturer. Philipp was born in Hamburg and grew up in Detmold, in northern Germany. After studying history, philosophy and Jewish studies in Vienna and Oxford, he gained a D.Phil. on nationalism. During this period, he also worked in journalism, taught at a high school, and wrote a novel. Like many of his subsequent books it was written in English and translated into German by himself. From 1997 to 2001 Blom and his wife, the writer Veronica Buckley, lived in London, where Philipp initially worked as an editor in a publishing house and as a foreign correspondent for German, Swiss and British newspapers and magazines (Guardian, Independent, the TLS, Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Süddeutsche Zeitung, Neue Züricher Zeitung) and for radio stations (BBC, ORF, Deutschlandfunk). 2001 the couple moved to Paris to concentrate on their books. Since 2007 they live in Vienna. Next to his work in history, fiction, philosophy and art, Philipp presents the program „Punkt 1“ on the Austrian radio station Ö1. He wrote and presented a TV documentary, and curated exhibitions for, among others, the Wien Museum and the Getty Research Institute in Los Angeles, where Philipp invited in 2010 to work for one year. Lecture tours and festivals take Philipp throughout Europe as well as to the USA, Canada, and South America. Philipp Blom’s book combine historical research, philosophical enquiry and an essayistic, literary approach. Among his best-selling works are The Vertigo Years and Fracture, dealing with the cultural history of the early twentieth century, A Wicked Company, about the radical Enlightenment, Nature’s Mutiny an investigation into history and climate change in the seventeenth century and, more recently, What is at Stake, dealing with climate change, digitization, and democracy. Philipp’s wide-ranging work and research interests have received numerous accolades. He won several international prizes (Premis Terenci Moix, Barcelona, Groene Waterman Prijs, Antwerpen, NDR Kultur Buchpreis, Wolfenbüttel), and his books are translated into sixteen languages.

You have to knit them together into a pattern and relate them to one another. ” (Philipp) “Maps are useful because they show the world as it isn’t. They select, they say you don’t need to know that, but you need to know that. Whatever you want to know, there is a map for it.” (Philipp) “If we want to survive this current (climate) crisis in some decent form… we need to accept the total transformation of our economic system, our political system , the way we see the world and how we see ourselves in the world.” (Philipp) “If you live in a completely commercialised imagination, then the amount of stories you can tell declines dramatically… imagination becomes deadened by commercial interests.” (Philipp) “If we are learning anything about nature it is simply the fact that we need to talk about ‘systems’.” (Philipp) “The individual is only the mirroring of something which comes back from others.” (Philipp) “We want to survive?

    Wanderful: Inspiration On The Go with Tom Morley... ’irreverence, justified’
    2023/01/31

    Wanderful with Tom Morley

    “Irreverence, justified”

    Team Building is needed more than ever in 2023. Face to face onsite interaction. A reason to come together. 200 people drumming. A thousand people singing in harmony. Things we can't do on Zoom.

    Tom Morley has a 40- year track record of doing this. Scritti Politti, David Bowie, Madness, Blue Chips everywhere and now you. Exactly where you are. That's Tom's speciality, finding out where you are and starting there.

    Following his time in the music business with the 80s band Scritti Politti Tom has developed a truly artistic way of living where every experience leads him to the humorous uncovering of some universal truth. He turns his disasters and successes into Keynote inspiration for tired conference audiences who think they've seen it all. Maybe they HAVE seen it all, but have they FELT it? Have they DRUMMED it? Have they CHANTED it? Have they HARMONISED it?

    Four decades onstage, first behind a drum kit then being the front man for whole troupes of performers has earned him the name ‘The Stand Up Drummer’. What's he standing up for? You're about to find out.

    Quotations

    “My mantra is ‘we’re better than this’. That’s what drives me on.” (David)

    “Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin… all those people… they gave us permission to just jam clothes together.” (Tom)

    “I look like someone you would want to have a conversation with and that’s because I’m shy. I can’t really start conversations from scratch, I have to get people to start conversations with me.” (Tom)

    “The ‘groove’ is found at the intersection of discipline, surrender and mischief.” (Tom)

    “Irreverence, justified.” (Tom)

    “We are our own powerpoint. We just need to turn ourselves on.” (Tom)

    “I’m there to re-introduce people to their own creativity.” (Tom)

    “We are up against the very well funded status-quo.” (Tom)

    “Drummers… what we do is make it safe for everybody… we keep the groove going.” (Tom)

    “The irony is, the safer they feel with the groove, the groovier the groove is, the more attractive… then they will feel something new.” (Tom)

    “We walk in rhythm, so you can play with the rhythm of walking. We pretty much walk in 4/4. If you want to get into the groove, emphasise the 2nd and the 4th beat. Then you get into the groove. It’s called the off-beat.” (Tom)

    “What’s the purpose of the dance? It’s to dance.” (Tom)

    “There is a lot to get done. As we do it, lets dance our way there, because we’ll get to better places if we do that.” (David)

    “I’m not interested in bringing out their inner-child. I’m interested in bringing out their inner-adult.” (Tom)
