Ep 21 - Veni, Vidi, Flevi (I came, I saw, I ......) 10.07.2026

This episode is about the UNESCO WORLD HERITAGE SITES sites wonderfully maintained by the ASI in North Karnataka but in garbage and dirt infested towns. My actionon reporting the same to various bureaucrats and escalatig hoping that it might reach the right ear. Also a tip on having happier starts to the morning.

Ep 20 Holystoning and Apprenticeship 26.06.2026

A good solid foundation for everybody in everyline of work starts with Theory meeting practise via an Apprenticeship. I have applied it to learning the ropes in management, as do large corporate family owned companies who put their wards through the drill over several years before they are tasked with responsibility and leadeship. Much the same way as Doctors go through internship and house surgen...

Ep 19 Listen to your body 12.06.2026

We hear but dont listen. We look but dont see. We listen to doctors, or google ailments or issues, we depend on popping pills and some physio treatment BUT do we ever listen to the body ?? When light aches that are persistent speak out are we conscious. Do we try figuring out the causation rather than heading for the temporary cure ??If we only listened to the body speak and then used some common...

Ep 18 Complacency and recognising it 29.05.2026

More often than not it is human nature to get complacent especially when their functions, responsibilities and duties are routine and monotonous. This complacency gives a false sense of confidence and bravado leading to errors, near misses and accidents. many lead to disasters. It is important to recognise the signs and accept while working on it rather than dismissing something so important . In...

Ep 17 Entrepreneurship - a rollercoaster ride 15.05.2026

There are several who come up with an idea and want to start a company and become entrepreneurs as it seems like a simple route to recognition, wealth and achievement. The reality is different when business cycles, finances, dealing with humans and collection of monies owed come into play. I share my personal thoughts on the subject after running 4 companies and 25 years of entrepreneurship. #entr...

Ep 16 : Introspection and looking back 01.05.2026

In our daily lives and rat races, how often do we pause, reflect, purge and re-set our minds. Consistently preoccupied with tomorrow we are continuously engaging our brains. Never giving it rest. If your physical self needs a holiday so does the brain and mind. I discovered the two exercises narrated in this episode very purgative, recuperative and restorative. #meditation #introspection #Rechargi...

Ep 15 @ captjun : Allopathy HI vs MI 17.04.2026

The patient is also a customer. Doctors visits in the present day are often more stressful, not only because doctors have lost the personal touch of disarming and getting the patient to relax, but also due to the lack of the old diagnostic skills that were once the cornerstone of General practise. Then more often than not there is the long list of tests to oil the working of laboratories and to en...

Ep 14 @captjun Life Series : The uncertainties of Life - Meet Dr. Srinivas Rao 03.04.2026

Life of which we have one, can be both uncertain, and cruel. How does one cope with the events that shake the foundations of comfort that have been built. How do we manage and conquer associated depression. Dr Rao shares his story with a relevant message to listeners. #Life #lessonsfromlife #depression #stroke # paralysis #

Ep 13 Relationships DOM DOE ?? 20.03.2026

We enter relationships, spend years, while we evolve and change, yet while fail to recognise and accept that we continue to endure considering the investment of time, and other facts. We overlook the fact that we have one life and a chance to accept that the relationship may have expired and by exiting we might just make 2 people happier.

Ep 12 @captjun Life series - Meet Dr. Vithal Rajan -Milestones of an eventful 90 years 06.03.2026

The Life Series are about listeners with interesting stories to share. They would be messages from those having played an eventful innings called life, about their recoveries from tragedies and calamities that struck them, who have conquered struggles. These messages are for those of us who may look for examples, inspiration or determination in life and see them in the guests on the show.#podcast...

Is Leadership for everyone ?? 20.02.2026

Not everyone is cut for leadership. Accept that and contribute to a team. However if you have natural traits for leadership a restless soul, fire in you belly and mind full of ideas that leaders dont listen to - then set out to put your mark in the world. 70% of the time you will succeed. #leadership #naturalleader #conviction #Fireinthe belly #

Ep 10 The Garbage Processor - Dont Think !! 06.02.2026

In this episode I explore the tendency in daily life to overthink and make assumptions about people, situations, and knowledge. I urge listeners to stop over-analysing and to question these familiar patterns, especially in interactions with friends, family, and colleagues. #psychology #betterlife #themind #relationships #mentalhealth #peace

Ep 9 - Are you a good example 23.01.2026

What happened to the systems of yore when the traffic department invited school kids to traffic parks to get a hands on idea of rules and driving etiquette ?? Whose responsibility then is the poor driving sense and etiquette on the roads assigned to ?? RTOs around the country who never adapted and improved on the sound systems that existed and were available in the past are surely the first ones t...

Ep 8 - The travelbassador 09.01.2026

Why does one travel on holiday ?? Is it to be ourselves and subject those we meet to tolerate us or .. is it to discover the wonderment of new places and people and as ambassadors of our country help them appreciate us ?? Today it seems more like letting others know who we are in our avatars rather than trying to discover the countries, people, food and cultures where we visit. Wealth can’t offer...

Ep 7 : Recognise encroaching irrelevance 19.12.2025

In the Sine curve of life, on the way down the curve, as we become less active, lose drive or retire, we begin to lose relevance for many near and dear around us and at times feel lonely and become shadows of our past selves. Learn to recognise the signs and take steps while not despairing. Listen on to think differntly. #life #motivation #abandoned #lonely #

Ep 6 : Should I or Shouldn’t I ?? (Taking the current when it serves) 05.12.2025

When you fall into a rapid river do you grab the first piece of driftwood or flotsam that comes your way to survive OR do you let it pass waiting for something bigger that may never come your way ?? So it is in life, that opportunities pop up (few and far between) and I’d I say grab them for they may lead to the flood #newpodcastalert #motivation #opportunities #freethinkers #mariner #

Ep 5. : Of Ice cream, chocolates, a car deo and a sandwich 21.11.2025

Continuation of Writing Right and Consumer activism. Don’t let them get away, speak calmly, write clearly but ACT you must. You have a right for both products and services that we pay for.

Ep 4 : Write - Right (Havildar Neelam and other stories) 10.11.2025

The general feeling is that the Government does not listen. My experience is different because sitting at a desk I have raised issue online or on mail (or by letter in the past) and 90% of the time they are responded to and action of some sort taken. Those who say nothing happens, in general lack belief and therefore take the easy way out by blaming inaction when in reality they have never registe...

Ep 3 : Speaking Wrists 24.10.2025

The emerging Oneness - Are we suppressing the personality and Individuality within ??
