Show #15 - The Science of Magic

Sunday, August 17th, 2008

This week, we talk about changing the universe and ourselves using magic and ritual. We also discuss how we understand magic to work in the “mundane” world, our concepts of the Divine, seeing the Divine in everything, reincarnation, symbols in magic and ritual tools.

Edit: For some reason I can’t get the podcast to show up here in this post. I’m working on it… Thanks for your patience.

Science of Magic (21 minutes)

Show #14 - Procrastination

Sunday, August 10th, 2008

We finally did a show about procrastination - why we procrastinate, and what we can possibly do about it to be more efficient, and less guilt-ridden.

We procrastinate because we are afraid, or because we put ourselves second, or we might loathe the task facing us, or even it’s the procrastination fairy prevents us from getting things done.

What we can do about it is to schedule these tasks, follow through, and fit in small tasks in the bits of “down time” that you find during the day, and talk to people about what blocks you.

Take the Audacious Challenge with us!

Pick a project that you’ve wanted to get done, but the Procrastination Fairy has prevented you from starting.

Go to this page, and post what that project is, and we will all keep each other on track with monthly updates and encouragement.

Show #13 - Voiceovers

Saturday, August 2nd, 2008

We get silly again, geeking out - Audacious Robin does an Axl Rose impersonation, Audacious Wendy sings like Cher. We talk about doing voiceovers in video games, IVR systems (”press 2 to continue”), and breaking in to the voiceover market.

We also invent a new religion, Continuism: Shit keeps happening!

Show #12 “Meeting of the Minds”

Sunday, July 27th, 2008

In this podcast, Audacious Mary asks us all which historical figures we’d like to have dinner with and pick their brains. Audacious Wendy is more concerned about what she would serve them. Some of the notables include Harpo Marx, Da Vinci, Shakespeare, Carl Friederich Gauss, and Salvador Dali, inventor of the LOBSTER PHONE (Audacious Wendy Must Have This Thing!):

Show #11: Metaphors in the Pagan Community

Sunday, July 20th, 2008

This is our 11th podcast! (see the contest announcement)

Today our Audacious Women get serious and discuss metaphors, symbolism, psychology and the state of the New Jersey Pagan Community. This ‘cast is a bit longer than our usual broadcasts, but that’s because we had a lot to say about this topic.

Here are some of the things we said in the podcast:

Family are those who really have your back.

The NJ Pagan Community is in its spiritual adolescence.

If you want to get in on the discussion, please leave a comment.

Show #10: Guilty Pleasures and Star Trek Vocalists

Monday, June 30th, 2008

In this episode, we take some time out from serious talk to chat about the movies we like but are embarrassed to admit it, and also about some of the records made by the stars of the original Star Trek TV series.

Audacious Wendy has to apologize to Audacious Donna! During the ‘cast, Wendy claims that Sam Raimi was not “in” Army of Darkness. He did not, in fact, act in that film. He directed and co-wrote it. So Donna was absolutely correct to call AoD a “Sam Rami” film.

Show #7: Closing Doors

Sunday, May 18th, 2008

Show #6: Technology

Sunday, April 20th, 2008

Well, I always thought fire was a good idea…

We were told in the old days that technology was going to save us time, but it didn’t seem to work out that way. Our Audacious Women discuss how technology has changed the world and our lives in particular.
