We talk beefs (beeves?), dig into Internet drama, and have fun. The NBA is now a 365-day league and it's never been more present in pop culture. From Kevin Durant's burner accounts to LeBron taking his talents anywhere to trusting the Process, the NBA is becoming a pop culture requirement. At the same time, sports can have gatekeepers that make it insular and frustrating for people who aren't die hard fans. We're here to prove that basketball is entertaining to follow for all fans, whether you're actively watching the games or not. Recently featured in The New York Times!

Stroock strikes out. -------------- We thought the end might be near for Stroock & Stroock & Lavan when we recorded this episode. We were right. And with that, the Biglaw world moves to exclusively one or fewer ampersands. A senior lawyer tried to pull a prank on an airplane. It ended badly. And we discuss the last time newly elected Speaker of the House Mike Johnson tried to run something. It was a law school and it failed in epic fashion.

In this episode, we interview each other about the projects that have been keeping us busy. Alissa shares her journey of co-founding Ampersands Restorative Justice – an organization dedicated to restoring the world from sexual harm. Among other things, Ampersands facilitates restorative processes for cases of sexual harm and trains other folks to facilitate these cases. Alissa shares what it has been like to see her dream become a reality. Alexa speaks about a project that is close to her heart as well. In 2020, she and Dr. Nicole Fox found out about the Survivors Memorial located in Minneapolis, MN. It is the first ever memorial dedicated to honoring survivors of sexual harm. Alexa describes what she and Dr. Fox discovered after speaking to the people that were involved in all aspects of making the memorial a reality. She also discusses the next step in their research on the Survivors Memorial which is designed to uncover how it functions in the community as a site of healing, education, prevention, and more.

What fuels a multi-passionate life? In this podcast, I interview the most interesting people at the dinner party. These folks have led double-lives for decades and straddled two completely different worlds. For as long as I can remember, I've led a double-life of the practical and the creative. I've built a career in marketing for almost two decades. And now, I work as leadership and executive coach. On the creative side I've been a musician since I was a kid playing the piano, violin, and oboe. Music was my thing! And then I kept it up. As an adult, I've been actively performing opera, classical music, and musical theater since 2001. But for the longest time, I wasn't even sure what we should call ourselves. Renaissance humans? Polymaths? Something-slash-something else?The answer woke me up at 2AM one night. We're Ampersands! We have a big, substantial "and" in what we do. We've poured tens of thousands of hours into our creative endeavors, but we've also risen in our paid professions as leaders in the fields of business, education, technology, medicine, science, and more. The goal of this podcast is to collectively design the Ampersand Manifesto. Why do we continue to lead these double-lives? What does it look like to be balancing and even integrating two big pursuits? And how can our multifaceted endeavors support other Ampersands and the community around us? This season I interview Ampersands from so many different walks of life. I can't wait to introduce you to these multi-talented, passionate people. Join me for the Ampersand Manifesto, season 1.

After a short break Bex and Rob are back with a passion, even if the show is a bit more laid back than normal. With only rants about video games and kayaks there isn't much to complain about this week.. or is there? There is some chit chat about how people talk including all sorts of mispronunciations people make and the accent of Minnesotans. You also get to hear about Bex thinking like Pavlov's Dog, or just salivating. Then you get to hear some laughter over the prank Rob pulled on Bex over the Antarctic summer.. classic. And then they end the show talking a bit about voting and politics. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/bexandrob/message

Spring is fickle and comes and goes, but the spinning goes on anyway. Today's podcast has discussions on two rare breeds of sheep, the Tunis and the Karakul. And later, as I spin on some cashgora, I talk about the unnamed spinners and her influence in my fiber life. All music today has a spring theme and is from the podsafe music network. Sounding for all the world like a 1940's tune, Tom Waits sings You Can Never Hold Back Spring. The interlude music between the yarnspinner tale today is Steps to Spring by Ishmail Abatay. The podcast closes with the song Winterspring by the Ampersands. Of course, I must thank Wren Ross for Baa Baa Black Sheep, and Clare Dowling for the Spinning Song.
