In the media and in the marketplace today. First of all let me tell you about my burning bush birthday and maybe you can figure out what it was and what it means. If you still can't figure it out let me know and I'll tell you the whole story personally because it's important for you too!  But since everybody in America listens to the radio or watches television or is involved in someway with the movies... Now everything you thought you knew about that has changed and will change a lot more in the right now future, so let me take a few minutes to help you begin to sort it out and do something smart! And now it is time for STOSH the robot to report on the radio show! If You're Not Streaming, You're Just Dreaming A message from the Impact Zone on the burning bush birthday of transformation By Stan Hustad   It\u2019s my burning bush birthday. That\u2019s right. You can guess what that means\u2014or let it remain one of life\u2019s good mysteries. But here\u2019s what matters: I\u2019m still standing, still stirring things up, and still trying to help good people like you thrive in a fast-changing world. And today, I\u2019ve got a message that\u2019s as urgent as it is liberating. If you\u2019re not streaming, you\u2019re just dreaming. There it is. I said it. And I\u2019m saying it again because this is the week it became official. According to the latest Nielsen ratings, for the first time ever, streaming has overtaken the combined total of broadcast and cable TV viewing in the United States. Read that again. Streaming is no longer the future. It\u2019s the present. Broadcast and cable TV? They're down to 44.2%. Streaming now commands 44.8%\u2014and the gap is only growing. And guess what? That shift changes everything. Not just for entertainment, but for communication, for business, for marketing, and for how we share our ideas, tell our stories, and build trust. From Airwaves to Antennas to Algorithms I\u2019m old enough to remember when AM radio was king. When you needed a 30-foot TV antenna with guy wires just to catch a blurry black-and-white signal from Chicago. I delivered newspapers when every home had one. Today, in my apartment complex? Only one unit gets a daily paper. The rest of us are living digital\u2014whether we know it or not. I\u2019ve been broadcasting for over 45 years. I\u2019ve seen the rise of FM stereo, the fall of print, and the digitization of almost everything. But nothing compares to the transformation happening right now. Streaming is more than a new channel. It\u2019s a new world\u2014a new medium demanding a new mindset. The Opportunity and the Challenge This isn\u2019t just trivia for media nerds. This is your wake-up call. If you want to grow a business, start a movement, sell a product, or make a difference\u2014you must learn how to show up on camera, behind a mic, and on demand. Podcasting, YouTube, livestreams, Zoom, LinkedIn video, TikTok, digital radio\u2026 these aren\u2019t fads. They\u2019re foundational. And now AI is accelerating the change. What used to take teams of experts can now be done by one creative entrepreneur with a laptop and a message. But here\u2019s the catch: if you don\u2019t get in front of this wave, it\u2019s going to crash right over you. \u201cRadio\u201d used to mean transmitting sound across wires and waves. Today, radio means \u201cradiated communication\u201d\u2014amplifying your voice, your vision, your value. And now everyone can have their own radio and TV network. You can too. What You Can Do\u2014Right Now 1. Stop waiting. Start streaming. 2. Invest in your presence. 3. Repurpose everything. 4. Use AI wisely. 5. Build your own network. Final Words from the Burning Bush Birthday Boy This week, I released my second book for the Christian Entrepreneur Network: How to Be a World-Class Jesus Entrepreneur. It\u2019s a project born out of this new era\u2014a book written, designed, and published using the tools of streaming and AI. It\u2019s proof of what\u2019s possible. I\u2019m not done. In fact, I\u2019m just getting started. If you want help, I\u2019m here: speaking, coaching, teaching, producing, broadcasting. Helping you get your voice out to the world\u2014wisely, powerfully, purposefully. So here\u2019s my birthday challenge to you: Don\u2019t just dream about a better future. Stream it into existence.
