00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,399
Speaker 1: You think life is moving quickly. I've got a decade's

2
00:00:03,439 --> 00:00:07,879
worth of conversations with everybody who's appeared on NBC's The Voice.

3
00:00:08,400 --> 00:00:12,000
You can check them all out one place, aro dot

4
00:00:12,039 --> 00:00:18,280
NETE dot net. It's the podcast titled That Voice. Stream Thinking.

5
00:00:19,079 --> 00:00:21,559
It's learning how to trust what is in your present

6
00:00:21,600 --> 00:00:24,760
place of right now now. To get there requires practice.

7
00:00:24,839 --> 00:00:26,920
This is what I do on a daily basis. Just

8
00:00:27,079 --> 00:00:28,760
one sheet of paper, even if you want one of

9
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:32,759
those tiny little journals, just one sheet of paper, ten minutes,

10
00:00:33,240 --> 00:00:36,880
write about whatever is moving through your presence of right now.

11
00:00:36,960 --> 00:00:39,799
It doesn't have to be about the latest news. It

12
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,399
doesn't have to be about your freakin' job. It can

13
00:00:42,439 --> 00:00:45,880
be whatever you're thinking in your present place of right now,

14
00:00:46,079 --> 00:00:50,719
with absolutely no judgment. Stream thinking will sharpen your skills

15
00:00:50,799 --> 00:00:54,560
as a listener, as a communicator, and as an activator.

16
00:00:55,119 --> 00:00:59,399
It's learning how to trust what is right now. This

17
00:00:59,799 --> 00:01:03,039
is stream thinking today. We're reading from March twenty second,

18
00:01:03,039 --> 00:01:05,799
twenty twenty five. A little selfish, maybe, but it does

19
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,040
open up the door for a lot of conversation beyond this.

20
00:01:09,400 --> 00:01:13,599
Maybe it's the radio guy that's in me, but at

21
00:01:13,599 --> 00:01:15,799
my current age, one would think that I'm pretty much

22
00:01:15,799 --> 00:01:17,799
set in the way of being one of those listeners

23
00:01:17,799 --> 00:01:19,719
that can't get enough of the music from the nineteen

24
00:01:19,760 --> 00:01:24,000
eighties and nineties, which was my budding years as an adult.

25
00:01:24,799 --> 00:01:27,239
I won't even step back to the nineteen seventies, which

26
00:01:27,280 --> 00:01:29,480
were my teenage years, and man, I couldn't get enough

27
00:01:29,480 --> 00:01:34,719
of that disco beat. I'm constantly listening to new artists

28
00:01:34,760 --> 00:01:38,439
and undiscovered songs. That's what I do today. There is

29
00:01:38,680 --> 00:01:42,840
so many songs and sounds that are available to us today,

30
00:01:43,480 --> 00:01:46,079
and it feels like a crime if we don't jump

31
00:01:46,079 --> 00:01:50,640
on a Spotify or iHeartRadio and completely get ourselves into

32
00:01:50,640 --> 00:01:54,519
the moment of all things music right now. I mean,

33
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,000
who knows what the effect is going to be on

34
00:01:57,120 --> 00:02:00,400
our aging selves. I don't know about you, but inside

35
00:02:00,599 --> 00:02:04,000
my heart, it's not the calendar year that I am.

36
00:02:04,400 --> 00:02:08,520
In my heart, I'm only seventeen, and I still see

37
00:02:08,520 --> 00:02:12,319
myself in my bedroom with a mister microphone broadcasting one

38
00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,280
hundred feet so that my mother can hear me from

39
00:02:14,319 --> 00:02:18,479
my bedroom playing forty fives albums and eight track tapes.

40
00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:23,360
What you're doing, What you're doing? What I'm playing? Forty

41
00:02:23,400 --> 00:02:27,879
fives albums and eight track tapes. Whoa Okay, now this

42
00:02:27,919 --> 00:02:32,520
is Generation Z Alpha and Beta talking here. Okay, okay,

43
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:37,319
you mean vinyl, right, what's an album? Vinyl? Yeah, yeah, okay,

44
00:02:37,599 --> 00:02:40,159
what you call vinyl today is an album. And they

45
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:42,919
used to have little smaller versions called forty fives that

46
00:02:42,960 --> 00:02:45,039
would be like one song on one side and then

47
00:02:45,039 --> 00:02:46,759
another one on the other. I mean, that's how I

48
00:02:46,759 --> 00:02:49,000
found Detroit Rock City from the group Kiss, because it

49
00:02:49,039 --> 00:02:51,240
was on the flip side of Beth, which is performed

50
00:02:51,240 --> 00:02:57,800
by Peter Chris forty five's albums and eight tracks. Oh no, no, no, no, no, no,

51
00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:03,039
no no no. Do you have a Spotify? Yeah, but

52
00:03:03,439 --> 00:03:06,039
if it's like anybody else, why create a list if

53
00:03:06,080 --> 00:03:11,159
you're going to endlessly change it. I'm Marrow and that's

54
00:03:11,240 --> 00:03:12,080
stream thinking.
