Publisher's summary
Are you struggling to find your unique podcasting voice? Do you want to undergo a complete, rapid vocal transformation?
Maybe you can “fake it” and sound good on a podcast, but you struggle when it comes to sounding like you.
Remember, your voice is your brand. When you try to copy how someone else sounds, you’re basically just getting attention for their brand. People will say, “Oh man, you sound like…” They’ll think of that other person when they think of you.
Your voice is not only your brand, but your trademark. It’s your unique fingerprint. Develop it. Cultivate it.
Just imagine if you could unlock the hidden charisma in your voice. What would that do for your career, business, or job? If you want to go from sounding boring and monotone to confident and powerful, this book is for you.
You're going to get:
- Proven techniques to supercharge your voice
- Tested vocal exercises to make you sound better
- Newly discovered speaking techniques for podcasters
I've gone through the painstaking process of improving my podcasting voice. Literally, it's taken years. I started in 2015.
I used to be shy, meek, and uncertain, and I kinda wondered if I was really cut out for this podcasting thing. I tried learning a bit about how to improve my voice, but all the techniques were hokey or didn't work.
Man, I was frustrated. But, simply from sheer determination (and out of spite for one of my competitors), I kept at podcasting. It took a while, but slowly, I began to see a bit of progress.
I could hardly believe it, but I started to have people say to me, “Wow, you have a great podcasting voice”, and I even got invited to speak at dozens of seminars and workshops.
Somehow, I went from a soft-spoken blogger to a powerful podcaster and public speaker.
I made sure to write down everything I was doing, from the vocal exercises to the strategies I was using.
What accumulated was a war chest of strategies that are proven to work to enhance your voice, no matter how you sound.
I still use them to this day, and they never fail to cause a virtually instant change in my speaking patterns.

You’ve got all your notes and talking points prepared. You know exactly what you want to say and how you want to say it. After all, you’ve been practicing for weeks. You’re pumped and raring to go, ready to change someone’s life with your words. Then, you look out at the crowd, and all those people are staring back at you. You think they’re judging you. Suddenly, you’re second-guessing yourself. Your heart starts racing, your throat dries up, beads of sweat gather on your forehead, and now you’re on the verge of throwing up.

What you'll find here is practical magic: unique knowledge, drawn from a variety of sciences, revealing what charisma really is and how it works. You'll get both the insights and the techniques you need to apply this knowledge. The world will become your lab, and every person you meet, a chance to experiment.

Most jobs in this day and age benefit greatly when they have their employees trained on these topics. Get ahead of the curve and make sure you are keeping up with the rest of the world. There are so many places to gain this knowledge and to get yourself ready to tackle the world at large. However, not all of these are reliable, credible sources. The only thing worse than not being able to analyze others is doing it incorrectly. This can lead to interpersonal struggles, marital problems, workplace woes, and more. Analyzing people is not just about manipulation, after all.

Story
Superintelligence asks the questions: What happens when machines surpass humans in general intelligence? Will artificial agents save or destroy us? Nick Bostrom lays the foundation for understanding the future of humanity and intelligent life. The human brain has some capabilities that the brains of other animals lack. It is to these distinctive capabilities that our species owes its dominant position. If machine brains surpassed human brains in general intelligence, then this new superintelligence could become extremely powerful - possibly beyond our control.

Story
On May 31, 2014, in the Milwaukee suburb of Waukesha, Wisconsin, two 12-year-old girls attempted to stab their classmate to death. Morgan Geyser and Anissa Weier’s violence was extreme, but what seemed even more frightening was that they committed their crime under the influence of a figure born by the internet: the so-called “Slenderman”. Yet the even more urgent aspect of the story, that the children involved suffered from undiagnosed mental illnesses, often went overlooked in coverage of the case.

Story
The grid is an accident of history and of culture, in no way intrinsic to how we produce, deliver and consume electrical power. Yet this is the system the United States ended up with, a jerry-built structure now so rickety and near collapse that a strong wind or a hot day can bring it to a grinding halt. The grid is now under threat from a new source: renewable and variable energy, which puts stress on its logics as much as its components.

Technical knowledge alone isn't enough - increase your software development income by leveling up your soft skills Early in his software developer career, John Sonmez discovered that technical knowledge alone isn't enough to break through to the next income level - developers need "soft skills" like the ability to learn new technologies just in time, communicate clearly with management and consulting clients, negotiate a fair hourly rate, and unite teammates and coworkers in working toward a common goal.

Artificial intelligence does the seemingly impossible - driving cars, trading stocks, and teaching children. But facing the sea change that AI will bring can be paralyzing. How should companies set strategies, governments design policies, and people plan their lives for a world so different from what we know? In Prediction Machines, three eminent economists recast the rise of AI as a drop in the cost of prediction. With this single, masterful stroke, they lift the curtain on the AI-is-magic hype and show how basic tools from economics provide clarity about the AI revolution and a basis for action by CEOs, managers, policy makers, investors, and entrepreneurs.

In Glow Kids, Dr. Nicholas Kardaras will examine how technology - more specifically, age-inappropriate screen tech, with all of its glowing ubiquity - has profoundly affected the brains of an entire generation. Brain imaging research is showing that stimulating glowing screens are as dopaminergic (dopamine activating) to the brain’s pleasure center as sex. And a growing mountain of clinical research correlates screen tech with disorders like ADHD, addiction, anxiety, depression, increased aggression, and even psychosis.
