Binge Network CEO Bonnie Bruderer director of the documentary film Influencer joins JUST TALKING to discuss how millennials made millions of dollars with an iPhone. Social media has created a platform where just about anyone can fashion themselves as an influencer—BUT what does a millennial really know? Are they just a cheaper mouthpiece? Advertising is everything! Without advertising a product can die with the snap of a finger. 24-7 constant branding on social media means also being vulnerable to negative criticism, hurtful insults, lack of privacy and the worst of all trending fates—getting fizzled. Having a huge following is great for the brand but can humans process all these opinions? Influencers VS celebrities. Who do you go with? Who do you trust? Have tech companies created a virtual gladiator stadium and we the audience demand drama on the high court—WAIT are we the problem? Feelings not facts. Can an influencer push a brand for the money and simultaneously be guided by their moral compass? Weaponizing social media as a spying tool has been a hot topic this year. TikTok has been in the spotlight over accusations and potentially could be banned in the USA. Maybe TT needs to hire an influencer? Is social media the new cigarette? The government is proposing bills about child safety, addiction, mental health, screen time, etc.. WARNING: the surgeon general has determined that social media is dangerous to your health—BUT what isn’t these days? With syndication on 300+ smart TV’s there’s more than enough content to binge on.

Just Talking Vanessa Forsblad aka ‘thatonecatholicgirl’ aspiring Catholic apologist joins JUST TALKING on Good Friday to share the goodness. If religion is a relationship with God does that make your boyfriend a “side piece?” Time to change your profile on Christian Mingle to “praying the field.” At 18 most people have no idea what they want to do with themselves, life goals, etc. Vanessa knew early on there were two things she was passionate about, her faith and eating bean and cheese burritos with her grandmother. Religion has provided structure, tradition and values. She loves teaching and sharing, “because I just see the beauty of having something like that in your life.” Do you have to go to church to be spiritual? Millennials and Gen Z feel out of touch speaking about religion. WHY are people so reluctant to talk about their beliefs? Has technology become a new religion? We’re so connected now it should be easier than ever to share your faith. There’s been a decline in religious affiliation with Millennials and Gen Z. BUT is there an uprising on the verge? Apologist Vanessa says young people want the structure back, want a supportive community, an authoritative figure who can provide guidance and spiritual answers —— are we asking for an AI Jesus? Follow your moral compass. Use the search engine inside you and if you get no answers, let’s just pray on it first. Follow, listen and Pray: https://www.thatonecatholicgirl.com Strike A Chord Steve Ornest from Total Access Recording Studios joins STRIKE A CHORD to share his story about becoming a world renowned music producer. Lava lamps and keyboard players, it’s the recording studio dream. BUT how did young teenage Steve use his Gibson Les Paul guitar skills to pay the bills and get a new dad named Wyn Davis? Steve earned a degree at the Berklee College of Music in NY where there was fierce competition from eager rivals. He found a new talent arranging and producing songs setting him apart from just being a guitar player. Hard rock and metal forever —— well, until you get a mortgage and family. “It can take 100 hours or more just on one song. It’s not just about making it sound good, it’s about making you feel something, capturing lightning in a bottle can take time.” What are Producer Steve’s pet peeves? 1st more cowbell — a SNL Blue Oyster Cult sketch reference ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cVsQLlk-T0s ). 2nd I want to sound like this artist! This business is a team effort. You have to develop your brand. There’s writers, producers, agents, managers, etc.. Let’s do YOU and make the best version of what YOU are already doing. Produce that next album at Total Access Recording Studios: https://www.tarecording.com…

JUST TALKING Game contributor HenricK The WrecK and Ubisoft Community Development Director, Dan Mitre log into JUST TALKING to smash their video game controllers on the floor frustrated with gaming politics! They're just one life-heart away from the final stage and with 10% energy left can they beat the final boss? In gaming news the U.S. government wants to ban social media giant TikTok because they have concerns over China spying on Americans. Meanwhile Apple Siri, Microsoft Cortana, Google Home and Amazon Echo say— “don’t panic, we hear your concerns." The 2023 BAFTA (British Academy Games Awards) are coming up and why should we care? We don’t BUT let’s press start anyway. Which games do our esteemed panel of gamers nominate? God of War is the Beyonce of awards—multiple nominations but hasn’t sealed the deal. Will Elden Ring take home the gold? Totally Turtles dude! It’s a sleeper hit on the Nintendo Switch. It’s heavy on the cheese but can it deliver the “za” in 30 minutes or less? Voice Acting is getting the recognition it deserves but the competition is tight. Which VO performer takes the trophy in a video game leading role? The best games in 2023 are from 15 years ago! How does the video game industry justify serving stale bread to the fans? Is the nostalgic factor worth the price of entertainment — is there an appetite for these old moldy games? Don’t touch it, there are masterpieces in our world that need to be left alone. The Olympic Esports competition will take place in Singapore with games like Just Dance and Tennis Clash while snubbing established tournament franchises like Call of Duty and League of Legends. Gamers say the Olympics are playing it too safe and need to include headshots. Can we uncheck the parental controls—BUT the E in Esports stands for everyone! Even hockey players clean up their act for the Olympic Games! https://www.chriscollinsshow.com/henrick-the-wreck STRIKE A CHORD Vocalist/guitarist Dan Mitre joins STRIKE A CHORD to discuss his Punk Rock trio band Distortions. Rocking out of Raleigh, North Carolina the band has deep roots in the punk rock scene, the trio quickly established a fan base and position in the music community. Distortions is well known for crazy guitar riffs and an unwavering desire to perform live on stage. Rumor has it, this is how the band survives without food or water—feeding off the communal energy of the crowd. But how did former Bear vs Shark bassist Nick Jones and former Blitzkid drummer Andrew Winter link up with Dan Mitre to form Distortions? Music is medicine for the soul. The trio brings passion and emotion to every track but Mitre admits "you don’t really know until you see us live on stage." Their latest EP “Flies” addresses some heavy themes. “We’re all battling some form of depression, the demons ripping at our chest but there’s hope at the end of the day, we can persevere and we can endure and there is a reason to continue forward.” Community is vital to Distortions. We need to be human. You can’t spend every day pretending to be Superman. REACH OUT to people that love you, don’t be afraid. That commitment to community also created a record label, Bored to Death Records. Dan’s DIY punk rock campaign to offer a platform for independent artists without the pressure and politics of a large music label. Singles or Albums has been an on-going argument on the show BUT which side does Distortions go sideways with? The trio is a force of nature and their latest single “Castaways” is as punk as it gets. We’re all just “whimsy hypnosis charming castaways” on punk rock island. Follow, listen and Support: https://distortionsband.com…

Writer/Director Ryan Lacen joins JUST TALKING to discuss his latest film All the World is Sleeping . Inspired by real life experiences the film is about “survival, making it in a world that doesn’t go easy on you; following a mother struggling with addiction while also trying to surface for her daughter.” All the World is Sleeping asks the audience to put themselves in someone else’s shoes instead of simply judging. “Let’s pull that curtain back and see what experiences they’ve been through… let’s see their life.” All films have obstacles and up-hill challenges. BUT how did 7 women and their stories shape the voice of justice in this film? Addiction is a heavy subject. Like Ryan many families have experienced some level of addiction that deeply affects family relationships, friends and co-workers. What can we do to help and support? A film of this caliber needs to be authentic. Ryan brought the 7 women on set as consultants to evaluate and provide guidance on this production. The results are immediately felt during the film. There’s a new perspective with an emotional connection for the audience to find empathy in the story and create a conversation walking out of the theatre. Follow, watch and Support: https://alltheworldissleeping.com Denver Colorado Pop Punk Kings Bury Mia joins STRIKE A CHORD to thrash out their latest single “We've Been Trying to Reach You About Your Car's Extended Warranty.” Reinventing Pop Punk is their mission. That’s a big ask. So how is Bury Mia going to do this? “We’re super inspired by the early 2000’s bands. Taking Back Sunday, Blink 182… we’re trying to reprocess and make something new.” Bury Mia is tired of being stuck “inside.” They crave to reach out. What’s the message Bury Mia wants to share? “Reach out to people, they’re having a hard time… not everyone is living perfect … reach out, they would appreciate the text message, just talking, a phone call… just checking on your friend's man.” It turns out Millennials hate voicemail but love social media for connecting—BUT it’s not the most therapeutic method. However, if you can’t afford therapy, then the next best thing is to download “We've Been Trying to Reach You About Your Car's Extended Warranty” by Bury Mia.

Louis-Charles Berthiaume (LC) was delivered DOA (Dead On Arrival) but somehow revived himself long enough to join STRIKE A CHORD . LC discusses his solo project Dead Alright —is it a blessing or a curse to produce an album in isolation? LC is the front man for Brand New Lungs and Never Hit Again but during the pandemic decided to explore creating music going commando—zero bandmates and opinions, freedom to explore—but mostly no pants! Dead Alright is a unique band name. If you have a cool band name you need cool artwork to go with it. The undead vibe started with looking like tortilla man from Slip Knot with a touch of Halloween. But how did this franken-zombie become the band's mascot? The band's debut single “ Smoke and Mirrors” is a hardcore punk rock banger. The song is about being stuck in the past, rehashing old stories rather than going out and creating new memories. We’re looking forward to memorizing each new single until the album is released.

4-piece motley crew THE NOW from South Wales joins STRIKE A CHORD to release the Devil Inside . When Elvis got on stage in the 1950's and shook his money maker the girls went wild but the critics went wilder. They said with moves like Jagger society as we know it would be destroyed and the gates of hell would open up and swallow all of us. However, after a quick satanic ritual from Sam Smith the WiFi started working and we opened the show—because everyone knows you have to wear a thong to get into Hell. Sex, drugs and Rock ’n’ Roll is the go-to counter culture sacrament but THE NOW is a movement not a judgement. A safe space to bridge those barriers. So, how does THE NOW deal with detractors saying your singing and dancing your way to hell? The lads admit to dancing topless and praising co-host Marissa for more sales. We’ll see how this goes but the ladies love it. Breaking Band? There’s a new debut LP about to drop. How many physical and mental obstacles does it take for Oli Jacobs to produce a full album? Each song has its own individual character. There’s more to the band than a quiet verse and big chorus. The gates are open at Chris Collins Show.

Brooklyn Emo band Wakelee joins STRIKE A CHORD to discuss their upcoming self-titled album, Wakelee. We all saw it and we need to address it. What happened to Rihanna’s Super Bowl 2023 HalfTime show? The performance was lackluster at best. BUT what did Howard Stern say that has everyone getting their twitter accounts cancelled—Wakelee has some sage advice for live performances! Alex (vocals/guitar) and David (drums) are identical twins and the triplet that went wrong is Elliot (vocals/bass)—so how do some Jersey bros link up with an Oregon player? This is a first! Urban Dictionary doesn’t have a definition for Wakelee. BUT it’s the perfect opportunity for the band to provide a backstory on how they named their band—although it’s the last place you would expect. The feeling of not knowing how to feel after something bad happens is spot on for Wakelee’s single “Mood Rings.” Sometimes we can be a "tin can"—having difficulty processing emotions and expressing feelings is confusing. Should I be angry, sad, mad, happy or glad. Is that profound enough or am I in Oz? Having an identical twin has some advantages. There’s a world of possibilities where we can swap roles at any time. BUT does that work with relationships? Enoughs, enough! Time to get this album out and we can’t wait to hear what Wakelee delivers. Follow, support and listen: https://www.wakeleemusic.com…

Los Angeles Rockers Londynne’s Falling joins STRIKE A CHORD to discuss their new single “ 911 .” It’s always interesting to hear a band's origin story. How did it begin? Who likes cake and ice cream? AND as long as we’re in a pandemic isolated from society let’s form a band! “911” instantly gives you Fail Out Boy vibes. The music video takes you back to high school teen angst, finding yourself, getting frustrated when definition doesn’t match description. Lead singer Londynne hints there’s a full album waiting for release—BUT why hold back? Is this a rock band fetish to get song fans desperate for another track? OR do fans want to be tickled, teased, given dribbles of singles rather than albums? To AI or not to AI? That is the song writer’s question! Artificial Intelligence (AI) is here to stay. However, just because an AI can write a song doesn’t mean we should let an AI write a song. Are we scared the AI will do a better job? Guitarist Jacobi.e says, “isn’t this just using a thesaurus to write a chorus?” If you get into trouble, CALL 911—BUT if you’re looking for a new millennial pop rock band CALL Londynne’s Falling .

Bring your protein shakes to the party—don’t wait to lose weight! The mission and vision are one goal. The Vision Twins explain the healthy balance between work, exercise and play time. With 3 MILLION followers on TikTok, being a social media fitness influencer is a fulltime job—BUT what stress relief advice do the Vision Twins offer to combat overload fatigue? Having a vision for yourself is a priority and we hit the gym hard to reach that goal. We all start the new year with grandiose visions of paparazzi taking photos of us posing that will be posted on social media. While secretly hoping our frenemies eat humble pie, jealous of glamorous physiques with envy. That’s a dream many of us will never see! So, let’s get back to reality. You don’t need to be a “gym freak” to improve your fitness. The Vision Twins have some easy workout routines to motivate you into the fast lane to reach your goals. What advice do the Vision Twins offer millennials in this medicinal cannabis laced world? Life changes are always hard.

Strike a Chord THE ADLIBS TikTok sensation Justin Bernardez returns to STRIKE A CHORD to catch up on recent events and his new upcoming project. Justin released an EP in 2021 musically themed around mental health—an open invitation on his social media accounts. Mental Health is a heavy topic and takes a huge toll. So how does an influencer with 2 MILLION subscribers deal with the overload? New videos daily, content hourly and responses in real time. The burnout is real! However, there’s a pay day! The social media investment does pay off. Fans have been asking for that new track, that new album and Bernardez delivers! Trends in music are always changing. There's a big push in the music industry to use artificial intelligence software to write lyrics and produce albums. Can AI really create music humans want to dance to? Are song writers a thing of the past? Justin asks the question “AI can write a song for you—BUT can AI perform a song?” Music comes from the soul. If AI is artificial, it has no soul—OR does an artificial soul count? Obviously, there’s NO AI replacing Justin Bernardez any time soon!

Let’s get IT! CCS Season 14 has begun! Writer/Actor Sean Crampton joins JUST TALKING to discuss his new action thriller, The Stalking Fields . A film about a group of civilians who find themselves trapped in a PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder) training program. What starts off as a reasonable therapeutic exercise turns into a dark government experiment gone out of control. A mix of screaming pauses throughout this film openly question your morality — when is it right? What is wrong? “Everyone carries PTSD in certain ways.” Crampton’s father was a decorated Navy Seal for 27 years — you couldn’t throw a rock and not hit a military family! A picturesque example of the modern nuclear family prompted Crampton to take a deeper look into the American Dream. But it was Hollywood’s hyper-glamorized portrayal of combat that really fueled this film in a different direction to provide answers. HOW do we adequately address the reality of coming back home? Crampton’s father, Cramton Sr. served 13 deployments for his country. According to the 2022 National Veteran Suicide Prevention Annual Report by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA), Veterans are at 57% higher risk of suicide than those who haven't served. What about retirement? How do we treat our Veterans during the transition? Can new technologies like Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) provide beneficial therapy? In the writer’s room Sean Crampton and Jordan Wiseley both grew up in military families and director Ric Maddox, an army veteran, teamed up to make this thriller film. All three drew on their personal experiences to make this film as visceral as possible. The audience is definitely going to face a decision on which side they are willing to stalk for.

Demi the Daredevil was on tour with Tiktok’s TX2 blasting through Texas—BUT how did this handsome devil end up in a Van Full Of Nuns traveling together? We all have a wild side that’s best suppressed under heavy medication OR can a daredevil come out on stage? “ The Martyrs Crown” is a rock banger with a deep question. What is God and the purpose of religion? Is life your own purgatory? “ We start in purgatory and we have to fight our way out. How do we do that? What are these laws of life we need to follow? ” There’s been an ongoing debate about releasing singles or a full album — and just like that we’re back in music purgatory! Daredevil shines some heavenly wisdom on the subject. We all have a lot of questions about life that may never get answered. “ Withering Heights, ” My Purgatorium has the answer we need.

JUST TALKING Veteran Music Industry Executive and D.VERSE Media CEO, Benny Pough joins JUST TALKING to share his story about ON IMPACT : Life, Leadership, and Betting on Yourself . “GRINDING, GRINDING, GRINDING!” Benny’s been in the game for over 30 years—what’s changed? The title of his book ON IMPACT has a double meaning. It took a near death experience — you’ve got to hear this story. While recovering Benny developed the acronym IMPACT (Intuition, Mastery, Pivot, Authenticity, Connection and Teamwork), a journey from an 11 year old paperboy to current day CEO. We all start somewhere. Looking for an opportunity. Benny found his moment as a young standup comedian—BUT what’s more interesting is how not telling jokes catapulted his career. Benny has worked at Motown Records, Perspective Records (Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis), Arista Records, MCA Records and Def Jam Records — are there any record companies left? Love or hate it, it’s that time of the year. Christmas is around the corner and thanks to Benny one artist dropped a Christmas song that will be played to the end of time. Time to Pivot! Benny shares his experience leaving Def Jam to become the president at Roc Nation—" it was a natural fit, it was great, had some really big success—it was time to take a chance.” ON IMPACT is about Betting on Yourself. Radio’s not dead. It still has value. BUT how do today’s upcoming artists survive the streaming wars and social media demand? Keep in mind Taylor Swift sold millions of vinyl records—BUT who has a record player anymore?! “You’re not going to be IT today but definitely going to be IT tomorrow.” Young artists look for the opportunity to sell your artistry — it’s all part of the GRIND! Love, share and follow: https://www.bennypough.com Strike A Chord London Rock guitarist Niro Knox joins STRIKE A CHORD to discuss his upcoming album release. Niro’s been playing in rock bands since Slash has been shredding Guns N’ Roses; King Lizard, KilliT and Holloway Hell. Niro is now stepping front and center with his own LP. Spilling tea, sipping tea and just plain old tea time, Niro originally from Israel moved to London 19 years ago and found his guitar pick in the local rock scene. Inspired by rock legends of the time, it was natural to resonate with being a kick ass guitarist. Later Niro found a disconnect between music and songs—what does that mean? Niro worked with Rasmus Bon Andersen (Diamond Head) to prepare as lead singer on this new album—BUT how did a cheeky t-shirt link up the two artists? Record label or self-publish? Niro made a conscious decision to produce this album on his own—BUT why not join a record label for the extra support? What does it really cost to produce a track at a studio like Abbey Road or Fiction? Niro started a Kickstarter campaign to help fund this album. Listen to the demos. It’s time to have a cuppa and ROCK! Support this kick ass artist: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/niroknox/debut-album-21…
