Episode 51 of ‘All About Art': Being Your Authentic Self in the Arts with Comedian and Art Critic Verity Babbs In this episode, I sat down with art critic, comedian and presenter Verity Babbs. We speak about the topic of being your authentic self in the arts and why we often struggle with it in our sector. I ask her about Art Laughs, an initiative she founded that brings art-themed comedy events to museums, galleries, fairs, and cultural spaces. Listen on to hear me ask Verity how she comes up with her jokes, why she thinks being authentic in the arts can be so tough, and in what ways neurodiverse contributors and audiences are instrumental in our sector. We also both open up on struggles surrounding mental health, with the arts providing an ever-growing workload and an ever-diminishing pay. Thank you Verity for coming on the podcast and having such a fun, open and honest chat with me!

A., Sled, J. G., Nieman, B. J., Picketts, D. J., Justice, M. J. Abstract: ATRX is a chromatin remodelling ATPase that is involved in transcriptional regulation, DNA damage repair and heterochromatin maintenance. It has been widely studied for its role in ALT-positive cancers, but its role in neurological function remains elusive. Hypomorphic mutations in the X-linked ATRX gene cause a rare form of intellectual disability combined with alpha-thalassemia called ATR-X syndrome in hemizygous males. Patients also have facial dysmorphism, microcephaly, musculoskeletal defects and genital abnormalities. Since complete deletion of ATRX in mice results in early embryonic lethality, the field has largely relied on conditional knockout models to assess the role of ATRX in multiple tissues. Given that null alleles are not found in patients, a more patient-relevant model was needed. Here, we have produced and characterised the first patient mutation knock-in model of ATR-X syndrome, carrying the most common patient mutation, R246C. This is one of a cluster of missense mutations located in the chromatin interaction domain that disrupts its function. The knock-in mice recapitulate several aspects of the patient disorder, including craniofacial defects, microcephaly and impaired neurological function. They provide a powerful model for understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying ATR-X syndrome and for testing potential therapeutic strategies. Copy rights belong to original authors.

Three young boys have died after being pulled from an icy lake in Babbs Mill Park in Kingshurt, Solihull fourth in critical condition. Two victims are understood to have been playing on the ice when it cracked and gave way beneath them, causing them to plunge into the water. Several of their friends then reportedly ran onto the lake in a bid to help before falling in themselves.

Earning her Bachelor's degree in Management and Marketing, with a minor in Psychology, she enhanced her ability to empower others to create positive change and lead with trust. "There have been a lot of times in my life when I thought the mistakes of my past would completely derail me from the future I wanted. But each time it seemed I'd really put myself in a bad position, I was able to overcome. I was able to persevere. I was able to make it. " "Too often those in situations similar to those of my past feel hopeless. Feel stuck. Feel inadequate and unworthy. They don't think that they matter or that they will ever amount o anything. Why would they matter when everything they do seems to end up wrong? Why would they succeed?""I know how that feels. That's why it is important to me to tell them that they do matter; that they will make it. They are worthy and adequate.

In this weeks episode, Amber covers the murder of Skylar Neese. Skylar was a 16-year old girl who disappeared from her home in Star City, West Virginia on July 6, 2012. The entire community helped in the search for Skylar, including her 2 best friends, Sheila Eddy and Rachel Shoaf. It was until Rachel made a grizzly confession that the case went from a missing persons case to a murder investigation.Amber pulled her sources from:Wikipediawww.grunge.com article by Francesca Coppola 4-14-21www.medium.com “The Tragic Story of Skylar Neese, Brutally Murdered By Her Best Friends.” Article by Hannah Marland 12-12-20Then Erika covers the Babbs Switch Schoolhouse Fire. On a chilly, Christmas Eve in 1924 the Babbs Switch Schoolhouse near the town of Hobart, Oklahoma was the scene of a deadly fire. Around 200 people including students, families and staff arrived for a Christmas celebration, that would end in disaster. Just as Santa reached for the last few presents one of the candle decorations was knocked over, causing the tinsel to go up in flames. This tragic fire took 36 lives of all ages and injured 37. It even led to the mysterious disappearance of a 3 year old little girl, who would years later reappear but the truth would not come out for many more years after that.Erika pulled her sources from:www.genealogytrails.comwww.oklahoman.com / “Deadly 1924 Christmas Eve fire in Oklahoma brought reform” By: Juliana Keeping / Pub: Dec. 24, 2014 and “Journalist Honors Pledge to family of missing girl” By: Jay Grelen / pub.

It is my great privilege to share a deep, personal, and hilarious discussion with 60's icon, Merry Prankster, and personal hero of mine; Ken Babbs.Ken and I discuss the origin of the hippies and the birth of the counter culture. We discuss his relationship with Ken Kesey, with the interview actually taking place on Ken Kesey's 85th birthday. What an honor! We also touch on the history of psychedelics, the acid tests,God, Aliens, Angels, and more...Wow! Join Us!Ken Babbs is a famous Merry Prankster who became one of the psychedelic leaders of the 1960s. He along with best friend and Prankster leader, Ken Kesey wrote the book Last Go Round. Babbs is best known for his participation in the Acid Tests and on the bus Furthur.Ken Babbs was raised in Mentor, Ohio. He attended the Case Institute of Technology (where he briefly studied engineering) for two years on a basketball scholarship before transferring to Miami University, from which he graduated magna cum laude with a degree in English literature in 1958. He then attended the Stanford University graduate creative writing program on a Woodrow Wilson National Fellowship from 1958–59; having entered the NROTC program to fund his undergraduate studies, Babbs was commissioned as a second lieutenant in the United States Marine Corps following the end of his fellowship. He trained as a helicopter pilot and served in one of the first American advisory units in Vietnam from 1962-63 prior to his discharge and reunion with Kesey in 1964. Babbs had no understanding of the impact the war had on him until he received his orders to go to Vietnam. His insight soon began to take definition. Babbs later stated that he “had no perceptions of the right or wrong of the situation before I went to Vietnam, but it took about six weeks to realize we were wasting our time there... being humble, respect[ing] local customs, learn[ing] the language and helping does more good than hurting.”In the fall of 1958, Babbs took a writing class at Stanford with another Wilson Fellow, Ken Kesey. Babbs later described meeting Kesey as “a moment of mirth and sadness, highness and lowliness, interchanging of ideas and musical moments.” They soon became best friends, maintained a correspondence while Babbs was stationed in the Far East with the Marines, and eventually formed the Merry Pranksters.What started as a Happening emerged into a global frenzy and inspired people, still today. According to Babbs, a Happening is something that “can’t be planned ..It just happens! It takes place in public or private and involves everyone present. In Phoenix in 1964, we painted "A Vote for Barry is a Vote for Fun" on the side of the bus and waved flags and played stars and stripes forever..this qualified as both a prank and a Happening.” .The most famous happening of the Pranksters was the nationwide trip on the Furthur. While on a trip to New York City, the Pranksters needed an automobile that could hold fourteen people and all of their filming and taping equipment. One of the members saw a “revamped school bus” in San Francisco that was for sale. The Pranksters bought the bus and named it Furthur. Babbs was the engineer for the bus. Ken Babbs is mostly credited for the sound systems he created for the Trips Festival. Prior to Babbs’ creation, it was discovered that particular music usually sounded distorted when cranked to high levels because of the cement floor on the San Francisco Longshoreman’s Union Hall (where the Trips Festival was taking place). Babbs being a sound engineer resolved the problem. He made sound amplifiers that would not create distorted sounds when turned up to high sound levels.The purpose for this Happening was to link the psychedelic tribes from the west and the east. Many people tend to remember the east tribe because of Timothy Leary and LSD. Many misjudgments have been made on the Pranksters and their promotion of LSD. However, Babbs makes it clear that “just because we used LSD does not mean we were promoting its use. (LSD) is a dangerous drug..[It’s] a way, I guess, of breaking down the conformist ideology.” .During the legendary Prankster cross country bus trip to the New York World's fair in 1964, an epic movie was filmed and shown at several “Acid Tests”. The film is called The Merry Pranksters Search for a Kool Place. Some have compared the Prankster’s trip to the Acid Tests. Babbs assures that the “Acid Tests came after the bus trip and came about because we were editing the movie of the bus trip and began renting places to show the movie and play our music.” What inspired the Acid Tests was when the Pranksters met the Grateful Dead. Babbs relates to that time as “it was the power that propelled the rocket ship everyone rode to the stars and beyond the whole night the acid test took place.” [IBID]The Hog Farm collective was established through a chain of events beginning with Ken Babbs hijacking the Merry Pranksters' bus, Furthur, to Mexico, which stranded the Merry Pranksters in Los Angeles.Looking back at his experiences as a Merry Prankster, Babbs says he wants younger and future generations to carry on “love, peace, and happiness; extended in practicality to the simple act of helping one another out, being kind and generous.” [ibid]Babbs currently lives on his farm in Dexter, Oregon (near Kesey’s house) with his wife Eileen, an English teacher at South Eugene High School. In 1994, he helped Kesey co-write The Last Go Round, about the oldest and largest rodeos in America. Babbs is also founder and leader of the Sky Pilot Club. Many of Babbs's trips are now available to watch on YouTube. Babbs recently published a novel based on his life in the armed forces during the first years of the Vietnam War, Who Shot the Water Buffalo?Join Us!

We are live from the garage of Dr Paul Roof! On this episode Babbs and Paul geek out over nerd life. We discuss who cooks the best wings, beard competitions, and old Charleston bar life. And of course there’s a bunch of great junk in between. So kick back; welcome to the living room.
NOTE from Masha: As these episode are being released, the world is dealing with the coronavirus crisis. Because all episodes in the season were recorded well in advance, this is not discussed on the show. I hope that you will apply the same themes that we discuss throughout the Bold Adulting podcast to coping and supporting both yourself and others in your community (including the global community) -- reaching out to people (virtually) figuring out what you want to make progress on and making a plan being open about what you're going through with the people who you feel comfortable sharing with looking for evidence-based resources remembering that you are not alone If you want to connect with me to discuss what you're going through (about this or anything else), please feel free to email me or find me on Facebook (send me a message letting me know you found me through the podcast). I also strongly suggest connecting with other caring and compassionate people through the Facebook group Distance Resistance (which I don't run but I participate in) which is about staying connected even while we have to stay apart. You can also find a lot of information there about getting help or giving help -- this is a is moment to come together. --------------------------------------- [content warning: eating disorders & body shame] In episode 2 of a two-part episode, Voice Actor and Coach, Podcaster, and Marketing Specialist Tawny Platis discusses fighting bi invisibility by coming out in the context of being in an other-gender relationship, setting boundaries with family members for self-care, and finding help for recovering from eating disorders and body dysmorphia.

Not everyone in the queer community feels that it’s appropriate to use this language more broadly, but many do Pansexuality and Bisexuality Note: Masha identifies as pansexual (attracted to people regardless of gender) but uses the word “bisexual” in contexts where she feels that’ll be better understood. This may be considered a form of code switching.

Far-right trolls often target women and minorities and seek to subvert the work of politicians, journalists and activists. But technology platforms and their supporters tend to resist the kinds of legislation that could help tame the trolls. Effective rules still could be years away. So how can we, as users, deal with this fantastically dark side of life online? Andrew Stroehlein, the European Media Director for Human Rights Watch, has returned to EU Scream with concrete advice on how to respond to troll attacks. David Babbs led the successful digital campaign group 38 Degrees, and so he also knows a thing or two about social media. These days Babbs is the lead consultant for an initiative called CUTI, or Clean up the Internet. The idea is to oblige platforms like Facebook and Twitter to give users ways to protect themselves from anonymous trolls and abusers. Full disclosure: CUTI is funded by the Laura Kinsella Foundation, which also has granted support to EU Scream.Support the show (https://euscream.com/donate/)

Nate Babbs (@soundslikenate) is a good friend of mine that I’m excited to welcome to the podcast for a special NERD EDITION! Sure, Nate graduated from one of the best music schools in the country (Berklee College of Music)… Sure, Nate’s an experienced session and touring drummer (sharing the bill with the likes of Counting Crows) but I don’t give a single crap about any of that. We sat down for breakfast and bloody marys at Victor’s Cafe in South Minneapolis to dive into some of Nate’s nerdier endeavors and as usual the convo took a turn for some things deeper. In this episode we talk about: -Learning not to be ashamed of your passions (no matter how nerdy they are) and realizing that it’s only by embracing yourself that you can open up doors to connect with others -Dungeons and Dragons, Fantasy Novels, The Hobbit and Lord of The Rings, The Red Wall Book Series. "Giving your adult self permission to imagine.’ -Why Sake Bloody Mary are big in Minneapolis -Our human need to define EVERYTHING -The negative side of escapism -Renaissance Festivals -The importance of imagination as an adult: “Adults don’t feel like they can play anymore.” -Deciding to be inclusive instead of exclusive -Quit constantly comparing yourself to other people Recording Location: Victor’s 1959 Cafe, South Minneapolis Drinks: Sake Bloody Marys For Links, Guest’s Info, Show Notes and pictures of Nate on tour and in his full RenFest attire VISIT: www.thecuriouspod.com
