First Eclipse

It’s amazing how a single cosmic event can bring humanity together. I almost missed it and a chance to take in the sublime. As people created in the image of God we remain divided. As long as we walked the earth we have lived in tribes and fought over land. In recent years tribal affiliation has intensified with the weapons of critical race theory and strong political alliances. We focus on skin colour and other trivial matters and forget we are earthlings orbiting around a star. The eclipse reminds us of our place in the universe and how small we are. It’s humbling to acknowledge there are forces and systems greater than us.  Season 7 is arriving soon, please continue to give back to the show buy buying a coffee at buymeacofee.com/earthstories and remember to subscribe to the spinoff show, Experimental Stories.  Music is licensed under Epidemic Sound  Original song is created by Suno

No one puts baby in a corner. This is one of my favorite movie quotes. It’s a simple line delivered in a pivotal point in Dirty Dancing. The biggest fear is failure, to avoid it we do nothing. We live and draw within the lines and play by the rules. We say we want to live extraordinary but we succumb to the ordinary. Season 7 will cross the streams, jump the shark and climb over the fourth wall.  Please spread the word about this show and follow me on X, my handle remains @Poeticearthling I’m also the producer of Deep Into History the best history show from the skillful lore master Arjun.

Imagine if you were the last  surviving member of the human race. Everything you loved and hated is burned in the fire. Earth is a distant memory as your space vessel is your only home. Loss, isolation and grief is your constant companion. However, there's a small  glimmer of hope. A mustard seed of faith that pushes you to seek answers and to reclaim what was lost.  Special episode My special guest is Karin Heimdahl. She's the writer and host  of the multi award-winning dystopian sci-fi drama Chaika.  You've heard her perform on this show, and in Season 7 she will be one of the leading stars.  Karin breaks down her writing process and how she connects and cries over her characters.

Why should Taylor hog the spotlight and leave us mere mortals in the cold?Why did Time Magazine anoint her as the person of the year?

I know some diehard Swifties out there may disagree and stop listening to this podcast. This is a chance I'm willing to take to tell you the truth. Brand new season is launching later on this year.

Is the advent of AI our long awaited Saviour, or is it the birth of Skynet Earlier this year I was invited to the Write Hive panel about AI in book publishing. Our conversation went beyond publishing to a more philosophical musing about where this technology is heading.

It's my Mom's 80th birthday, let's board the time machine and travel to 1943 Special Episode Sometimes we have impulsive and inspirational ideas but we don't take action. We give ourselves excuses of why it can't work. We feed our inspiration with logic before it reaches the clouds. I'm definitely guilty of this. My mind is a factory of ideas that remains on the conveyor belt. Life seems easier when you play it safe. With nothing to lose and nothing to gain you can sail through life unnoticed. You can live a painless existence by not ruffling any feathers. But who desires that? The people we admire are the risk takers, the cliff divers.Those people who ride the waves rather than observing them in their lawn chairs. I learned in this episode that being impulsive is not a bad thing. Sure you can go overboard if you're not careful but the right kind of impulsiveness is pure magic. Also in this episode you'll hear my Mom for the first time. If you like this show please give back at buymeacoffee.com/earthstoriesAlso listen and follow my Spin-off show, Experimental Stories.
