Grant township started a fight they intend to win. Standing up to Pennsylvania General Energy's plan to put a fracking injection well in their town became a fight for the constitutional rights of the environment.  Without people standing up to Big Energy, Scott Pruitt, the head of the EPA, and people of his ilk will continue to devastate our natural landscape for the benefit of the multi-national corporations, the national corporations and the 1% this kind of action profits. The Trump era has ushered in a whole new agenda and the environment and what we can do to protect it must be seen as a bi-partisan issue because in the end we all will drink the water and eat the food that comes out of the poisoned earth and oceans.

Alexander Loyd's book, "Beyond Willpower," uses the Energy Medicine Tool (a practice of stacking your hands over your heart, forehead and crown and circling them in opposite directions every 15 seconds for three minutes per area, three times daily) in order to center oneself and find internal peace. This tool will allow for the focus of our positivity attention to be grounded and centered on the locating the ailments we feel from our internal imbalance and not the external forces that clutter our mind, life and overall state of contentment, peacefulness and happiness. If you feel overwhelmed by bills, commitments, loved ones and life itself, then the Energy Medicine Tool is a way for you to turn your attention internally and find that peaceful congruity you have been yearning for your whole life.

For the Wired article click here: http://bit.ly/UkraineEIwJM The Kremlin has attacked every level of the Ukrainian infrastructure in an attempt to weaken the long standing enemy to their overall imperialistic goals.  No level of security remains for the embattled Ukrainian government. Over 6500 cyber-attacks in two months has proven nothing is safe in Ukraine from Soviet hackers. Is this a sign for the Western civilizations to stay out of Russia's imperialistic vision and to allow their allies free run of the world? How is the United States and their allies prepared for similar cyber attacks? How far is Russia willing to go in their mission to return to global power dominance?     CULTIVATING CURIOSITY THROUGH COMPELLING CONVERSATIONS   Visit mediamogle.com facebook @mediamogle Soundcloud: @jessemogle Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter @jessemogle email: everythingsinteresting@gmail.com

Al Franken is not your prototypical Senator, then again, the states currently have a very non-prototypical President - so it all evens out. Listen to this weeks "Article of the Week" to hear my take on Franken, she of the current political foibles occurring in D.C. and of course how Al is taking on the big dogs for the small guy. Oh, how I can't wait for Generation X to finally take control of our political system - surely we will have learned from our predecessors.  CULTIVATING CURIOSITY THROUGH COMPELLING CONVERSATIONS Visit http://www.mediamogle.com facebook @mediamogle Soundcloud: @jessemogle Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter @jessemogle email: everythingsinteresting@gmail.com

Al gore's "An Inconvenient Sequel" debate last night and Patrick Kleven and I attended because Al Are was there for a Q & A. Climate change is not, I repeat, NOT a political is issue. It is the crisis of the future playing out in the present! Stop and ask yourself, "why would a politician pass legislation that turns it's back on this world changing problem?" If you don't realize it's because go money coming from "Big Coal" then you are fooling yourself.

An Inconvenient Sequel is debuting this week and with it will come renewed conversations on climate change, renewable energies and everything under the sun humans can do to help slow the inevitable rise of our oceans, poisoning of our air and water, etc, etc, etc - this all seems so hopeless as I type this up. Why all the denial? If it's job creation you're looking for studies show a myriad of results and they all point to double the job growth when money is spent on renewables rather than fossils. The energy companies and their cohorts do not care about you - they care about their profits and their yachts. Stop being a pawn - the is not a political issue and we'll all realize that when we're fighting over water, food and other resources while the monarchs running the world dine on the sweat off our brow.   Visit mediamogle.com facebook @mediamogle Soundcloud: @jessemogle Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter @jessemogle email: everythingsinteresting@gmail.com   http://www.mediamogle.com   CULTIVATING CURIOSITY THROUG

I think I know very little about Muslims and their religion Islam - so I set out to learn more.  Blinkest has a blink called "The first Muslim" by Lesley Hazelton and it is a quick review of the prophet Mohammed and his origin story. So fascinating. If only we could all just sit down and agree to live on this planet as one instead of fighting over land, resources and long held beliefs in books full of myths. Oh well, good luck with all that. I will continue to curate curiosity by learning as much as I can about Islam and it's core belief structure. After all, I bet we'd all see Muslims a lot differently if we read about them and stopped believing our politicians' opinions beings how they clearly have ulterior motives in saying what they say and believing what they believe.

Water, O where art thou? In the Pacific Ocean because SoCal puts so little effort into capturing rain water runoff. The money is there, the need is there - the sense of urgency is not. What is LA's longterm strategy - hear no, see no, speak no evil? It's time to start putting a better system in place before we suck the Colorado River dry - what, it's already a trickle, DAMN IT! Well, then, we'd better get to it. visit mediamogle.com facebook @mediamogle Soundcloud: @jessemogle Instagram, Snapchat, Twitter @jessemogle email: everythingsinteresting@gmail.com

Love in the Technological Age is not the easiest to navigate.   Presenting our perfect selves, obsessions with interactions, likes, comments, shares, bantering back and forth via text with 140 characters and emojis - how is anyone supposed to have a meaningful interaction with this device between us.   Are dating sites ruining the act of dating - is Tinder the Hot or Not of the 21st century?   Can we be as compelling in person when we can't just delete a stupid comment like a text before we hit send?   Nothing is fully figured out but the conversation is started and now you can join.   CULTIVATING CURIOSITY THROUGH COMPELLING CONVERSATIONS

Patience is a virtue, unless your electronics are upsetting you - then it's on! Also, why I don't like leaving Los Angeles. My first official episode since being accepted into the iTunes podcasting family! Here we GO!!

A tough topic to cover but one that I had to speak on the day after the attack. I was not as knowledgeable about Muslim/Islam when I spoke about the attacks so I don't always sound intelligent during this episode.  Muslims are the people who follow Islam - like Christians follow Christianity. The fact that it's two different words seemed foreign to me the day I shot this but is one I have understood for some time. This episode was hard to discuss for many reasons - death of people being among them. Plus there is the added fear or knowledge that if I say something wrong, wether I realize it at the time or not, then someone down the line will hear this, say I'm an a-hole and tear me up and down the street for my error. So here's to those who died senselessly in Manchester, for everyone who has died because of terrorism, for everyone who has died because humans still fight religious wars mellenia  after they started.  To you and yours - bless you.

We all know we need to have patience but the world can push our buttons sometimes.    In this episode I discuss life in LA and how I strive to hold my patience even when a slow walker in staring at their phone in a cross walk. Apologies for the bad audio. I figure out what happened and fixed it but the show most go on - or in this case, the show must be posted.

Soylent is named after the old school movie called, "Soylent Green." If you don't remember that movie, the post-apocalyptic drama is set in the near future and the human population has gotten so far out of control we're having a hard time feeding ourselves. So, we eat humans once we have turned their remains into a smoothie. Yum! I tried it for a week and lost five pounds. In this episode I talk about how Soylent and products like it could be an answer for our every growing planetary nutrition needs.

Deadline procrastination is easier to manage as you know, at some point, the deadline will get near and you'll go into freakout mode and actually start getting the work done you were supposed to hours, days or even weeks and months ago. But what of life plans/goals procrastination? When you are the one setting out these plans and you are the only one you have to hold yourself accountable toward then when does the Instant Gratification Monkey get frightened off by the Panic Monster. We are all Rationale Decision Makers, well most of us anyway, but when there's not a deadline looming what motivates you to take the plunge and do what you've always dreamed of accomplishing?   Check out this TED Talk to see how I came up with this podcast topic. https://www.ted.com/talks/tim_urban_inside_the_mind_of_a_master_procrastinator
