The Real Debate
Friday, May 17, 2024
Mayday Call in May and Third Time is The Charm
In the next episode of Tea Party Media podcast, I will make a mental Mayday distress call and tell about my situation as I am open to work and being ”unemployable” at the same time. I have failed forward a couple of times, and now it is time to get ”lucky”… ;)
With that said, I am getting convinced that I am at the right place at the right time. Please, stay tuned for more content on new media, business philosophy, and the good life (including tea). Next Saturday, on my birthday, I will learn how to add stuff to my tea.
Check out:
- VEO (Value Each Other) Global Markets for my position as a new media advisor.
- My profile page on TrueFans.fm.
- Electi club. My web alias: Lyceum
As an ending note, have you planned for ”Beach ’24”? :) I will test LiveGood’s new product, Lean (Body Composition Improvement Formula), during the upcoming summer season…

The Tangram Life Puzzle
Here is an excerpt from my latest photo post on Instagram:
Maybe I can't see the forest for the trees? I have to come to the conclusion that I have to add additional pieces to the Tangram life puzzle. I miss Fizzle’s palapa online community. I have to check out Zen Business. Do you have a favorite digital town hall? I will join a new business network in the near future. It is called Booster Friends. Where do you go for business mixers?
I am starting my well-being journey on March 20, the Persian New Year, Nowruz. These are my phrases for the year:
๐ง ๐ค๐งก Value Each Other (VEO advisor)
๐ง⚡️๐ Value 4 Value (Podcasting 2.0 certified)
๐ฆ๐ช๐ป๐ฐ Purchasing Power w/ a Membership Club (LiveGood affiliate)
I will also come up with my three words for the year in the near future...
Today I am celebrating 1 year as an affiliate (”independent distributor”) with LiveGood. I have a team of about 40 individuals (affiliates and members). My goal is to reach the next rank, gold, during this year. I strive to introduce 100 individuals (affiliate members, regular members, and retails customers) to this new type of e-commerce.
I will continue to purchase products from other direct selling companies, e.g., microsilver products from LR Health & Beauty Systems, and I am open to become a retail customer to other companies.
I have been involved in several network marketing during the years, and I have learned plenty from the MLM (multi-level marketing) industry. The good, the bad, and the ugly… For example my activities in a chocolate company, had some bittersweet memories. I did a search on the net now, and found this piece of document.
I am taking into account my experiences from a cashback company and a travel company, as I am looking into this new company.
Check out Ben Glinsky’s commentary on ”golden handcuffs” in the business world. (LiveGood Firestarter-Friday Training Zoom, March 8. CEO, Ben Glinsky starts his positive rant, around the 20 min. mark).
As an ending note, please listen to:
- 18 Years of Podrunner (music mix, 180 BPM - “Post Haste”)
- Tea Party and Media, episode 13 of Tea Party Media pocast

Pieces of the Puzzle
The pieces of the content creation process are starting to get together. Maybe as a tangram?

- L.I.F.T. framework: LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook, Twitter

- Monday Open thread on Instagram. Post on digital town hall.
- Tuesday Tech live streaming (for the time being on EasyLive, in the future on TeaParty.Media) and blog post.

Hemp Bill AB 45 in California
Here is an excerpt from a press release, Cannabis Global (CBGL) and Marijuana Company of America (MCOA) Applaud California Assembly Passage of AB 45 Allowing CBD in Food Despite Federal Red Tape, on Yahoo! Finance:
AB 45 is a game changer for companies that market CBD products in the state. While important restrictions on manufacturing remain in place, this is unequivocally positive for any producer of hemp or CBD products targeting end-market consumers in California.
For more on this topic, listen to episode 4 of High Five for Hemp podcast, with Adam Tinkoff and undersigned.

I Am Being Tested
I am going through a tough period right now, but I am seeing great opportunities for the this new year. I will not really kick-it off, until the Asian new year, thinking about the Metal Ox. I will come back to my 3+ words for this year, in the near future. My main focus is to finish the work with my ”last,” site, and launch TeaParty.Media as soon possible. For the record: the name Tea Party Media is not associated with a political party or the modern tea party movement in any form, shape or manner. That said, I will continue to publish posts and episodes on politics and the tea party movement. I will also talk about what happened at the Boston Tea Party in 1773. In this day and age, it is more than ever an important issue to understand the history, and learn from it, don’t you think?
As podcaster, I have become a beta tester for a service, so you will see more ”note from the editor” (i.e., yours truly), in the near future. I will also test out new podcasting tools, now and then. And you will hear me talking about the so called podcasting movement and The Podcasting Academy in the future. Recently it was an article in the mainstream media in Sweden, about getting paid as a podcaster and that listeners will have to pay in order to listen to podcasts. I will comment on this notion, and come up with a service and product, during this year.
I have to catch up with the show notes for the latest episodes, search for a affordable transcript service, and plan for new guests on my show. My goal is to continue with the broadcasts on Happs.
On a personal note: I am wondering if I have light version of BPPV (Benign Paroxysmal Positional Vertigo). It is called ”crystal disease” in Swedish. Related episode: Wobbly Wrap Before Summer Break.
Maybe episode number 120 has a positive ring to it, what do you think? I searched on Google and found a site called Affinity Numerology. Should I test the chocolate-covered recipes, Amish style, that is displayed on the site?
Call to Action: Support a ”poor” capitalist via PayPal, and purchase Tea Party Media merchandise.
Episode 120 (8 minutes) was recorded on January 17, 2021, by podcaster, Martin Lindeskog, with Backpack Studio app, IK Multimedia iRig Mic Cast podcasting microphone, PreSonus HD7 professional monitoring headphones, and SnapRecorder portable recording booth.
