Spotify for Podcasters Recording on the Phone

Image
The new Spotify app for Podcasters is really disappointing. As a podcaster who records and edits episodes using only my phone, the removal of the built-in recording and editing features is a major inconvenience. Now, I have to find a new app and learn a new workflow, which is consuming a significant amount of my time and productivity. I hope Spotify reconsiders and brings back these essential features in the future. In the meantime,  I've tried Riverside.fm, but it doesn't work as well as the built-in feature. However, that is the only alternative the Podcasters App has given us. As an alternative, I've downloaded Audacity and used royalty-free music from my computer to replicate the previous functionality, but it has been a pain in the neck.

What is a Government Shutdown?

What is a Government Shutdown?               A lot of people have asked me what is a government shutdown? Before I explain to you what a government shutdown is, I would like to relate it to your life. For example, let's say that your family has five thousand dollars in $5000. Your father wants to buy a car, and your mother wants to buy new furniture for the house. They disagree, and they do not spend that 5000 dollars money. You, as a son or daughter, will not get anything.  So, a government shutdown is when the government of a country stops working because the political parties want to spend the money (the budget) on different programs. For example, Republicans and Democrats disagree on how to spend that money. Therefore, they do not want to pass the law, and the government will not get money to work and shut down. The government is like a big organization that does important things like schools, hospitals, and more. When this happens, the government can't pay its workers or k

Will I get the second Stimulus check if I am on SSI?

Image
The state of California has distributed checks to the people who live in California. If the income of an individual is lower than 75,000 dollars a year, the individual would have received a check starting in April 2021. This month, California will distribute more stimulus checks to those who qualify.  There are some criteria to meet to get the checks. If you have received the first stimulus check, you’ll not be eligible to get the second stimulus check even if your income is lower than 75000 dollars a year because you’re on social security income. The second checks will be sent to those who have child credit and to  who have not received the first check.

        On November 3rd, Americans will head to the polls to cast their vote to elect a president. Many people watch the news all of the day to see what happened to the results. I know, waiting for the election results is depressing. It feels exactly as if you are waiting for a health test results. Though, you can manage your stress.  Here is what to do to cope with this drama. First, make sure you have voted.    When you vote, it feels like you have achieved something important. Second, stay away from Social Media and the Idiot box because social media is filled with the NEWS. Make sure to drink a lot of water to stay hydrated. Eat good food. What I mean by good food is to eat chicken and salads. Listen to classical music. Why classical music? Because classical music is simply music without lyrics. This means that you will put your attention on the music instead of the lyrics. For this reason, classical music reduces stress.   In short: Make sure you have voted. Avoid social media and
