" It's been a challenging time for parents and guardians around the Sioux Empire when it comes to childcare. Recently, the Apple Tree Children's Centers announced all locations were set to close. This shocking announcement just highlights the growing concern for childcare needs in the Sioux Empire and South Dakota. Two organizations that stepped up to help the Apple Tree Children's Centers were EmBe and the Boys & Girls Club of the Sioux Empire. Despite the difficult childcare needs in our area, there are great resources like Tea Trailblazers and Gimme-A-Break that are ready to help families and kids. Kerri Tietgen with EmBe, Stacy Jones with the Boys & Girls Club of the Sioux Empire, and Amanda McGregor from Gimme-A-Break join the show to talk about the South Dakota Childcare crisis and ways they are helping families navigate these challenges."

Most of the guests I have on this podcast do silly and frivolous jobs like telling jokes or pretending to be other people for a living. Jono Brand and Amanda McGregor are a little bit different. They still tell jokes and pretend to be other people - but they use their silliness and frivolity as a force for good by helping sick kids cope with the uncertainty and worry of hospital and treatment in the guise of Captain Starlight.For over 30 years the Starlight Children's Foundation has used play, social connection and creativity to support children and young people in some of their toughest times and to positively change their healthcare experience.See the good work the Starlight Children's Foundation does:https://www.starlight.org.auSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/the-saturday-quiz.

Support the show on Patreon OR Buy me a coffee Show Notes: Todays episode features a scathing response to possibly the most Ill advised “take me back” letter ever and some wisdom from an ancient African proverb. Every so often, when I’m browsing the internet I’ll come across something that for some reason stops me dead in my tracks. Recently it was an image. The picture was of a sober looking dark skinned, middle aged Blackman, sporting a very full very fine beard. He had the kind of look on his face that your grandfather gives you right before asking you to “pick your own punishment” or to “go get the belt”. Children of all colours and cultures call it “The look” and it means that patience is wearing thin. The stern face in the picture belonged to a formerly enslaved man named Jourdan Anderson. Who lived during the 19th century. Very little is known about his life other, than that he was taken from his parents as a boy and sold in to a life of slavery. We know that he was born sometime around December 1825, and somewhere in Tennessee, and that he was “sold” to a General Paulding Anderson, who then “gifted” and I say that through gritted teeth, Jourdan, to his son Patrick Henry Anderson, who went by his middle name, Henry. We know that he married Amanda McGregor in 1848 and that the couple may have eventually had around 11 children and we know that in 1864 when Union troops camped out on the plantation where Anderson had been forced to labour for his entire life, that he, his family and possibly 32 other enslaved people were all freed due to President Lincon’s 1863 emancipation proclamation. This mass exodus broke the back of the plantation and ruined the finances of Patrick Henry Anderson, Jourdans former owner.
