IN the Loop TV Show’s Post

"It makes me vomit." That was Richard Dreyfuss when asked about the recently enacted AMPAS representation and inclusion rules for Best Picture qualification. I agree completely with Mr. Dreyfuss and I think you will too if you watch the full interview (below) and ignore the knee-jerk outrage of those who have not. (Read the draconian 'Standards' here: https://lnkd.in/gNfEArRG) #OscarsSoWhite. Yup. They're also almost purely a popularity contest, easily manipulated, entirely self serving and, 19 out of 20 times, culminate in the most insipid and banal TV of the year. In the late 80s/early 90s when Harvey devoted Miramax to gaming the system, there was a spark of intrigue, but that didn't last long. The Spirit Awards threatened to shake things up for a minute but rapidly morphed into a star-fucking sellout. The bottom line is that if you care about winning an Oscar today, you're either a callow, boorish studio executive or an insecure man/woman-child desperate for validation. (Or you might just be confused about what really matters.) Any organization claiming to represent artists that can, with a straight face, impose such arbitrary - or really any - rules on its artist constituents, deserves to be summarily denounced and abandoned. I applaud Richard Dreyfuss for publicly speaking truth to the brittle and submissive. https://lnkd.in/gmJxk9u3

What does being an expert in your field look like? (nerdy backstory incoming) In 2011, I was watching Penn and Teller: Fool Us. For the uninformed, this show brings magicians to try to fool two of the best magicians of all time (Penn & Teller). The magician performs the trick and then Penn & Teller try their best guess at how the trick was done. What does this have to do with expertise? One performance that brings incredible emotion to me even to this day is Mathieu Bich. Without spoiling the video, the exact moment that gets me is at 5:37. This is what expertise looks like. https://lnkd.in/e_UFzgSN

The core of the work I do is to help humans tap into their authenticity, remove the masks they have worn for years, heal from the traumatic experiences that created the masks, so that they are able to live the lives they were sent here to live! So, when I saw this piece from my Mentor and Coach, David Adeoye Abodunrin , I knew everyone needed to watch and benefit from it! Coach David went deep on this one…yet, in the simplest form possible! https://lnkd.in/dA3u5ePy
