It is about digging into where I come from, my culture, my family, and my roots. That means diving into the history of places, people, and ideas. It is also about where we are now and the present we all share. It is about imagining the future, the world we want to live in, and finding ways to build it.The Liat Show is my life, shared across various platforms. It is my unique perspective on the world and how its pieces connect. I am still crafting these elements, so they are not all connected yet, but this is only the beginning. The tools to bring everything together do not fully exist yet, but we have enough to start while tech companies develop the rest.In my imagination, this show begins every workday with a 13-minute session you can watch on the way to work or school or while drinking your coffee as you settle into your day. Each session features a story about culture, history, music, food, entrepreneurship, or other topics and explores how they connect to today's reality. The last show before the weekend will include a game we will all play together.The morning session will be followed by a reading class in the digital world, practicing the Liat Portal Method for reading online. This session will focus on developing skills to read properly in a digital world where information is in motion and constantly shifts.I wish all baby boomers in retirement, along with the silent generation and even those from the greatest generation, who know how to manage tablets or smartphones, would join these sessions. Your presence is welcome.If you are reading this during your commute or work hours, please call your parents, and if you are fortunate, your grandparents, to check on them. Then, invite them to my show, explaining that it covers various topics and that the daily topic is a surprise worth waiting for.In this fast-changing world, they may feel more at ease reading and listening to podcast episodes. They grew up in a different era, and many find reading or listening to the radio more comforting than younger generations.Set up a Substack account, a Medium account, and a YouTube or Spotify account for them, and add your email as a backup for their main Gmail account in case they forget their password. Create a physical or digital note with all their passwords, share it with them, and make sure they know how to access it. Create shortcuts on their desktop or a clear spot on their smartphone screen for the apps, and make sure they recognize each platform's icon.Since you are already assisting with tech matters, download a word
