The King of Springsteen: Jesse Jackson

from 50 Tastes Of Gray · host Matthew Gray

Aloha Friends, Matthew Gray here. Thanks for tuning in to 50 Tastes Of Gray. Can you believe it? I scored another Big Name, Jesse Jackson, for this podcast!Jesse Jackson (not the guy who ran for President in 1984) has been a lifelong fan of comic books and all things geek. He tells a great story of one of his earliest memories with his Grandmother who managed a Post Exchange located in Fort Polk, Louisiana.  She would allow him to pick out all the comics he wanted to read and would then tear the cover off them so she could get credit for them.  The good news is he got many comics; the bad news is that he never got to have comics with a cover.After seeing Bruce Springsteen perform live for the first time in 2002, he has become a major Springsteen fan and has seen The Boss perform live 19 times (and counting).  Jesse loves podcasting and is the host of Set Lusting Bruce, everything you ever wanted to know about Bruce Springsteen. I call Jesse "The King of Springsteen" and it's a well-deserved moniker. We covered lots of ground on this show, speaking of his upbringing in The South, the food of his childhood, his grandma, and his big-time crush when he was a young boy. Did Jesse "consummate" his desire with this young lady? Tune in to find out. We had sort of a porch-style chat, but without the moonshine or sweet tea. Enjoy the show, friends. If you dig Springsteen, this'll be a great listen. Feel free to reach me or listen to 50 Tastes Of Gray at https://LoveLife.com and also some video nuggets are available at https://YouTube.com/@50TastesOfGray Get full access to 50 Tastes Of Gray at 50tastesofgray.substack.com/subscribe

This Impact Studios production is a collaboration with the Governor family, UTS Faculty of Law and Jumbunna Institute for Indigenous Education and Research.The Last Outlaws teamKatherine Biber - UTS Law Professor and Chief InvestigatorAunty Loretta Parsley - Great-granddaughter of Jimmy Governor and the Governor Family Historian Leroy Parsons - Governor descendant, Narrator and Co-WriterKaitlyn Sawrey - Host, Writer and Senior ProducerFrank Lopez - Writer, Managing Next Generation Energy Systems Cambridge University Background Stakeholders working with energy systems have to make complex decisions formulated from risk-based assessments about the future. The move towards more renewables in our energy systems complicates matters even further, requiring the development of an integrated power grid and continuous and steady transformation of the UK power system. Network flows must be managed reliably under uncertain demands, uncertain supply, emerging network technologies and possible failures and, further, prices in related markets can be highly volatile. Mathematicians working with engineers and economists, can make significant contributions to address such issues, by helping to develop fit-for-purpose models for next generation energy systems. These interdisciplinary approaches are looking to address a range of associated problems, including modelling, prediction, simulation, control, market and mechanism design and optimisation.
