Speaker 1: You think life is moving quickly. I've got a decade's
worth of conversations with everybody who's appeared on NBC's The Voice.
You can check them all out one place, aro dot
NETE dot net. It's the podcast titled That Voice. Stream Thinking.
It's learning how to trust what is in your present
place of right now now. To get there requires practice.
This is what I do on a daily basis. Just
one sheet of paper, even if you want one of
those tiny little journals, just one sheet of paper, ten minutes,
write about whatever is moving through your presence of right now.
It doesn't have to be about the latest news. It
doesn't have to be about your freakin' job. It can
be whatever you're thinking in your present place of right now,
with absolutely no judgment. Stream thinking will sharpen your skills
as a listener, as a communicator, and as an activator.
It's learning how to trust what is right now. This
is stream thinking today. We're reading from March twenty second,
twenty twenty five. A little selfish, maybe, but it does
open up the door for a lot of conversation beyond this.
Maybe it's the radio guy that's in me, but at
my current age, one would think that I'm pretty much
set in the way of being one of those listeners
that can't get enough of the music from the nineteen
eighties and nineties, which was my budding years as an adult.
I won't even step back to the nineteen seventies, which
were my teenage years, and man, I couldn't get enough
of that disco beat. I'm constantly listening to new artists
and undiscovered songs. That's what I do today. There is
so many songs and sounds that are available to us today,
and it feels like a crime if we don't jump
on a Spotify or iHeartRadio and completely get ourselves into
the moment of all things music right now. I mean,
who knows what the effect is going to be on
our aging selves. I don't know about you, but inside
my heart, it's not the calendar year that I am.
In my heart, I'm only seventeen, and I still see
myself in my bedroom with a mister microphone broadcasting one
hundred feet so that my mother can hear me from
my bedroom playing forty fives albums and eight track tapes.
What you're doing, What you're doing? What I'm playing? Forty
fives albums and eight track tapes. Whoa Okay, now this
is Generation Z Alpha and Beta talking here. Okay, okay,
you mean vinyl, right, what's an album? Vinyl? Yeah, yeah, okay,
what you call vinyl today is an album. And they
used to have little smaller versions called forty fives that
would be like one song on one side and then
another one on the other. I mean, that's how I
found Detroit Rock City from the group Kiss, because it
was on the flip side of Beth, which is performed
by Peter Chris forty five's albums and eight tracks. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no,
no no no. Do you have a Spotify? Yeah, but
if it's like anybody else, why create a list if
you're going to endlessly change it. I'm Marrow and that's
stream thinking.
