Extended Teaser - Covid Year Five

As this year comes to a close, we’re releasing a Best of 2024 series—by no means objective, and making plenty of tough decisions to leave a few favorites out. We’ll be back early in the new year with new episodes.

Original description: Beatrice, Artie and Jules discuss a recent piece in NPR, “Wrestling with my husband's fear of getting COVID again,” which presents avoiding covid both as the product of unreasonable “anxiety” and as something immunocompromised people should let go of lest their loved ones consider abandoning them.

Transcript: www.deathpanel.net/transcripts/npr-covid

This episode was originally released on March 18, 2024.

Best of 2024: On NPR's "Wrestling with my husband's fear of getting COVID again"

As this year comes to a close, we’re releasing a Best of 2024 series—by no means objective, and making plenty of tough decisions to leave a few favorites out. Each of these will also be posted in the public feed. We’ll be back January 13th with new episodes.

Original description: Beatrice, Artie and Jules discuss the mask ban passed in Nassau County last week, the latest in a dramatic rise in legislation criminalizing face masks and targeting the Palestine solidarity movement. We look at what happened in the overtly hostile public hearing over the ban, the history of the New York statute that ban proponents want back, and how the threat of mask bans goes far beyond public health: mask bans embolden racist policing; they’re anti-trans; and they target the whole of the left.

Chakra Activation Sequence and Positive Effects of This Sound Track (432Hz Master Tuning) Research #SonoGenetics

Overview:
This binaural beats soundtrack is infused with Hemi-Sync and Solfeggio frequencies, meticulously tuned to a 432Hz master pitch. It is designed to activate, balance, and harmonize all seven chakras in sequential order, using pure tones and vibrational therapy. At a steady 40 BPM, the track induces deep relaxation while aligning the listener’s energetic field for enhanced well-being, coherence, and inner harmony.

Chakra Activation Sequence:
The track cycles through each of the seven chakras, using frequencies aligned to the natural resonance of 432Hz, known for its organic, heart-centered qualities. Each chakra is activated with a pure tone corresponding to its vibrational frequency:

Root Chakra (Muladhara) - 256HzGrounding, stability, and security. Helps release fear and establish deep connection with the Earth.

Sacral Chakra (Svadhisthana) - 288HzEnhances creativity, emotional balance, and sensuality. Encourages healthy emotional expression and pleasure.

Solar Plexus Chakra (Manipura) - 324HzEmpowers confidence, personal will, and motivation. Aids in self-discipline and inner strength.

Heart Chakra (Anahata) - 341HzFosters love, compassion, and emotional healing. Opens the heart to unconditional love and connection.

Throat Chakra (Vishuddha) - 384HzImproves communication, self-expression, and truth. Clears energetic blockages in the vocal and self-expression center.

Third Eye Chakra (Ajna) - 432HzStimulates intuition, insight, and expanded perception. Connects the mind to higher consciousness and clarity.

Crown Chakra (Sahasrara) - 480HzElevates spiritual awareness, connection to the divine, and cosmic consciousness. Aligns the individual with universal intelligence.

Positive Effects of the 432Hz Master Tuning:
432Hz is often referred to as the natural frequency of the universe and is known for its deeply soothing, organic resonance. When used as a master pitch, it enhances the natural vibrational flow of the body, promoting the following benefits:

Deep relaxation and stress reduction

Heart-centered consciousness and emotional balance

Increased synchronicity and connection to nature

Enhanced meditation and spiritual awakening

Improved energy flow and chakra alignment

Reduction of anxiety and mental clutter

Greater clarity, intuition, and creativity

How to Use This Soundtrack:
For best results, listen with high-quality headphones in a quiet space. Engage in deep breathing, meditation, or visualization exercises while focusing on each chakra as the frequencies shift. Daily or repeated use will enhance energetic alignment, leading to sustained balance and harmony within the mind, body, and spirit.

This track serves as an energetic recalibration tool, bringing profound peace, clarity, and a sense of connection to the vibrational essence of life itself.

Note: We are back from parental leave! This episode was originally released September 27th, 2024 and is being re-aired today in solidarity with Palestine, and to be able to re-share Rasha's guided reflection near the end of the discussion (beginning 44:55). 

To support the show and help make episodes like this one possible, become a patron at www.patreon.com/deathpanelpod

Original description:

Beatrice speaks with Rasha Abdulhadi about how, as we near 11 months and 100+ years of genocidal settler colonial violence in Palestine, it is vital to remain steadfast in our demands for Palestinian liberation. We discuss turning away from despair towards patience and boldness in our actions, why our demands must push for and beyond “ceasefire,” and draw connections between settler colonialism here and in Palestine; inviting us all to become more skillful in keeping each other alive.

This episode was originally recorded at the 2024 Socialism Conference. We will be returning for this year's 2025 iteration for our third annual collaboration with the conference organizers, in Chicago the weekend of July 4th. (Masking required!) Details at https://socialismconference.org/

[lyrics]

I like to disappear
Taking back control
I hate to be perceived
An invasion on my soul 

You think that that you’re bad boy cuz of your aesthetic
I think that I’m a bad boy cuz people want me dead.
 if I don’t make it to tomorrow, I’m sorry my love.
If I don’t make it to tomorrow, I’m sorry mama. 

i've been counting sheep backwards all night
i've been telling people i'm alright
lying to they face, through my teeth
it's been weeks since anyone's seen me

i've been counting sheep backwards all night
tryna turn this darkness into light
terror in my brain, no relief 
it's been weeks since anyone's seen me


This brand not safe
This name not good
I’m not okay
The door says push

You think that you’re an outcast cuz of your aesthetic
I think that I’m an outcast cuz I’m all alone. 


if I don’t make it to tomorrow, I’m sorry my love.
If I don’t make it to tomorrow, I’m sorry mama. 

i've been counting sheep backwards all night
i've been telling people i'm alright
lying to they face, through my teeth
it's been weeks since anyone's seen me

i've been counting sheep backwards all night
tryna turn this darkness into light
terror in my brain, no relief 
it's been weeks since anyone's seen me

Beatrice speaks with Jane Thomason of National Nurses United (NNU) about the Trump administration’s disbanding of the CDC’s HICPAC committee, the body that oversees infection control practices across the healthcare industry — and a committee that Jane was briefly involved with as part of an advisory workgroup since last summer. We also discuss the Trump administration’s staggering cuts across NIOSH, a key agency for workplace health and safety protections, and their significance within the broader “MAHA” agenda.

Jane Thomason is NNU’s lead industrial hygienist. She was last on the show in March 2024 and August 2023 to speak about a campaign against proposed infection control cuts being considered by HICPAC, after which she was added to a HICPAC workgroup that May. Jane returns today now that, with HICPAC disbanded, she’s once again able to speak more openly about committee deliberations.

I AM VIBRATION
Frequency-Encoded Music
Healing | Raving | Awakening

Each track is meticulously tuned using a wide range of harmonic master pitches—432Hz, 444Hz, 528Hz, and beyond—selected from researched frequency charts designed to support mental, emotional, and physical alignment. This isn't random tuning—it's an intentional sonic architecture backed by a deep understanding of sound's effect on the human body and energy field.

Whether you're meditating, dancing, or decompressing, this is music that meets you where you are—and elevates you.

Genre doesn’t define the experience. Expect a living spectrum of sound: healing tones, EDM, dubstep, house, techno, mid-tempo, and other styles that are all unified by one principle:
Vibration is the foundation of all creation.

This is not just music you hear.
This is music your system recognizes.
This is I AM VIBRATION.

Welcome to the frequency.

🌟 **Join Me on This Musical Journey!** 🌟  
I'm open to collaboration, just reach out via e-mail. I create all my music. I write it, mix it, run it through several systems, and if the voice isn't mine, it's created by me and trained. I have taught myself how to mix through audacity, and soundtrap, etc and still learning. I have been coding since I was 11 years old, writing since about 5 years old, telling stories since I was two and singing since I was 4. I can sight read, read and badly notate music, and play the piano. I'm teaching myself how to play the drums right now. 

In the next few weeks I’ll be reworking SoundCloud. Enjoy the songs. I’ll be slowing down the music process to 1 song to 2 songs per week now. I will start to transition the current songs to other platforms for easier listening. If anyone has favs they want available earlier, let me know. Enjoy!

Listen to my music. 
I'm a traveler of Worlds. 
Creator of realms, and storyteller at heart. 

Never stop dreaming, never stop laughing, and never stop listening. 
Always do your own research. 

I stand for unity and chilling out with as many people with like-minded vibes as I can.  

In my free time I like to hang out in my mind and create stories about other Worlds, mainly involving complicated time travel nonlinear plots. Wanna know my story? 
Just ask me? 


My songs are my journal, and an open music lab experiment. I need to make music to not be depressed and go into dark, dark places. It's like water for me. 

Feel free to share here, but if you use it for nefarious purposes, well I believe in karma . Peace out, and see you soon. 

Enjoy and never forget, question everything!
