This is the first in my new pilot series Wake Up. This is NOT to be confused with the current fad, Woke, which in effect, in my opinion is taking folks backward, putting them to sleep if you will. In this series of mine, I will be talking about aspects of life that you probably have not noticed, but that are there and key-when you do notice them and apply what you learn about them to your life, it will be greatly enhanced, I can assure you of that! This first episode delves into communication, two aspects of it that particularly address the importance of what to do before you begin a conversation and what not to do when listening to one and what to do when the speaker has finished. Will save you lots of angst! Some of what I am talking about is what I have learned from data brought forth by noted philosopher and humanitarian L. Ron Hubbard.

Thus is the first of a pilot show where I just talk about things that happened to me or that I thought about in a day that I think you may find interesting or amusing. This was was done while I was up near Nashville TN for a few days checking some things out. I talk about some political stuff, restaurants, outdoor shooting range and other items. Not sure I will do another one like it, depends on how many folks listen to it.

This is the first in a series based on the book The Leipzig Connection by Paolo Lionni, which is a no holds barred expose giving the who when and what of how the American Education system was systematically brought to its knees and is today, but a shadow of what it was before the the beginning of the 19th century. You will not like what you be listening to and may actually piss you off as it should for no greater crime can be committed that to deny individuals their right to knowledge and skills that would put them in control of their destiny's in life. An excerpt from the book" The child is not, for example, thought capable of volitional control over his actions, of deciding whither he will act or not act in a certain way: his actions are thought to be preconditioned and beyond his control, because he is a stimulus-response mechanism." pg. 9 You can find the full text of the book online in pdf. Included are some of my experiences in my schooling and teachings from Mr. Ron Hubbard noted and respected philosopher worldwide. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/john-alan-miranda/message

We have all lived in different places and moved on or been with various partners and moved on and so it has been for me with cars and trucks. Some were jalopies, but most weren't and some I truly loved. All had a story and some had very interesting stories as I bought, drove and sold them. Give a listen as I lay out, in pretty chronicle order, rides that I have had a part in and their interesting stories and adventures that they were a part of in my life from the first to the last...well not the last, but to the present.

I was processing out of the Army in 1969 and was promised that I would get preferential treatment because of my service record when it came to job offers-that was NOT the case.

This show started out as my inauguration show, but then I decided not to publish it. I now have edited it and its good to go. Just a few personal items about me and a lot more on truth. Today more so than ever before we are presented with data a plenty form social media, online rags and friends all wanting us to accept them as truth. Failing to differentiate between what is truth and simply opinion or flat out lies and believing them or worse operating on them as truth and incorporating them into your life can have serious ramifications for you. Here are a few really good tips to save you from embarrassment or worse from my experiences and the research of L.

These are a few selections from many and more of those will follow in later shows.  I made this show in part from a hotel room in Tennessee while on a road trip to test out doing shows while on the road in preparation for a lengthy road trip in the near future. I learned a few things about recording in a hotel room that resulted in a somewhat less than perfect recording, but you will enjoy it regardless and may not even notice the imperfections... --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/john-alan-miranda/message
