Freddie and Joel both just won masters, so you know we're talking about that, but we're also getting into a bunch of other topics. Like how to make money waterskiing, trick skiing scoring/trick values, who we think has the most “on water” time, waterski media and how it compares to wakeboard media, social media/influencers values to brands, onlyfans, and a whole lot more. Plus, the guys rip smelling salts to start the pod, and eat a Malort candy midway through.

The truth about the US Indian boarding school policy has largely been written out of the history books. Started in the 1800s across the US and Canada, Indian Boarding schools were government-funded and often church-run. The goal? Forced assimilation of Native children into white society under the belief of “Kill the Indian, Save the Man,” which still contributes to how we see and treat Indigenous Peoples today. In this episode recorded in 2021, we delve into the haunting legacy of Indian Boarding Schools in North America through the voices of SunRose IronShell and Manapee LaMere, representatives of the Sioux Nation of Indians. About $1.5 million in grants to digitize archival records and collect first-person accounts of Native Americans who attended U.S. government-run boarding schools have been cut as part of the Trump administration's efforts to drastically reshape cultural programs and transform the federal government. Sadly, the marked and unmarked graves of children have been found in the residential school systems of both Canada and the US. The total is now over 6,500 indigenous youth, having died amid accusations of abuse and neglect. Our guests, SunRose IronShell and Manape LaMere, talk about the history of this generational trauma, and how bringing home the remains has become a way to tell the children's stories and hold to account these schools.

 Last week in the local UK elections the Conservatives did really poorly losing hundreds of seats. In the words of former Tory minister, Rory Stewart, is the Tory party collapsing? Today I wanted to discuss this and see what links we could draw to boarding school. With such high numbers of the Tory party being educated in Public Schools could their education be impacting their leadership? Take care, Piers #torycollapse #tories #boardingschool #boardingoninsanity --- Piers is an author and a men's transformational coach and therapist who works mainly with trauma, boarding school issues, addictions and relationship problems.

I was listening to Daniel Goleman, the author of #emotionalintelligence yesterday. In the video: https://youtu.be/-qmLoJ7-A80?si=YuawRPJC0iqlnwli he shares that IQ/ cognitive abilities might well be replaced by AI. But EQ or emotional intelligence is a human skill and cannot be replaced. Emotional intelligence will be the skill of the future. But as boarding schools only seem to teach IQ and have little regard for emotions will they become obsolete? Today I quote from ex-boarders like Kate Middleton, Princess of Wales, Bear Grylls, Tony Blair about how emotions were dealt with at school. I also share some insights from David Farrell about his experiences in an African boarding school: https://youtu.be/zGgfQ_5mUAw #eq #iq #boardingschoolsyndrome #ai Take care, Piers --- Piers is an author and a men's transformational coach and therapist who works mainly with trauma, boarding school issues, addictions and relationship problems.

Essinger taught and cared for hundreds of Jewish refugees, quietly and peacefully resisting the Nazi party throughout World War II.

What does it take to cultivate joy—not as a fleeting feeling, but as a steady presence—even in times of deep uncertainty? In this luminous conversation, Dr. Heidi Brooks is joined by psychologist and author Emma Seppälä and artist Clara Nartey to explore the resilient, regenerative power of joy. With insights drawn from neuroscience, personal experience and artistic practice, Emma and Clara reflect on how inner sovereignty—the ability to return to center amid chaos—can help us meet the world with greater creativity, calm, and connection. From Clara's practice of beginning each day in prayerful gratitude to Emma's decades of meditation and breathwork, Heidi and her guests share how joy can be cultivated as a discipline of attention and care, and reflect on joy as an “inside job”—one that begins with how we treat ourselves and ripples outward in our relationships, our work and our communities. Together, they invite us to consider: What might it look like to build a “circle of delight” around ourselves and others—a nest of safety, authenticity and beauty?  This episode is for anyone seeking a more rooted, soulfully sustainable way to face uncertainty—and to offer something healing to the world in return. Learning Through Experience is produced through the Yale School of Management. What resonates with you about this conversation? We'd love to hear from you—reach out to LTEpodcast@yale.edu.

Both Clara and Emma speak to the mystery of creativity: “It's like the work is asking to be made—and I'm just the channel.” 23:19 – The Trouble With Toxic PositivityThey explore the power of authenticity over forced optimism: “Sometimes the most uplifting thing is just being present through the hard stuff.” 33:37 – What Is Sovereignty?Emma defines it as reclaiming our inner space from inherited self-criticism: “You can't unsee what you've seen.” 37:23 – Joy Begins With You        Clara reminds us: “You can't give joy to others from a place of emptiness.” And something to sit with: Something to sit with: “Gratitude will float you through the rushing waters.”

For decades, wealthy Nigerian families have looked to the UK for elite education - drawn to what they see as prestige, global connections, and academic rigour. But that journey overseas may no longer be necessary. Top British boarding schools like Charterhouse and Rugby are now opening campuses in Nigeria, with others - including Harrow and Millfield - exploring similar moves. But what's behind this growing trend - and is it being embraced or viewed with caution by parents? Mpho Lakaje speaks with parent Lucy Onoriode Okeke, as well as Dr Joy Isa from Rugby School Nigeria, to find out what's driving this shift and what it could mean for the country's education system.

Transcript:Nl: Het was een zonnige lentedag op het oude kostschool in Nederland.En: It was a sunny spring day at the old boarding school in Nederland.Nl: De tulpen bloeiden overal rond het schoolgebouw, dat er imposant en geheimzinnig uitzag met zijn met klimop begroeide muren en torenhoge torenspitsen.En: The tulips bloomed everywhere around the school building, which looked imposing and mysterious with its ivy-covered walls and towering spires.Nl: De leerlingen waren druk met de voorbereidingen voor Pasen, een feest vol traditionele Nederlandse versieringen en vrolijke paaseierenjachten.En: The students were busy with preparations for Pasen, a celebration full of traditional Dutch decorations and cheerful Easter egg hunts.Nl: Bram zat in de schoolbibliotheek, zijn neus verdiept in een stoffig, oud boek.En: Bram sat in the school library, his nose buried in a dusty old book.Nl: Hij was gefascineerd door de verhalen over een verborgen kamer ergens in de school.En: He was fascinated by the stories about a hidden room somewhere in the school.Nl: De geruchten gingen al jaren rond, maar niemand had ooit echt bewijs gevonden.En: The rumors had been going around for years, but no one had ever found real evidence.Nl: Bram had echter net iets interessants ontdekt in een oude tekst, die beweerde te weten waar de kamer was.En: However, Bram had just discovered something interesting in an old text, which claimed to know where the room was.Nl: Zijn ogen glinsterden van opwinding.En: His eyes sparkled with excitement.Nl: "Je weet dat de school zegt dat die kamer niet bestaat, toch?"En: "You know the school says that room doesn't exist, right?"Nl: zei Anouk, zijn beste vriendin.En: said Anouk, his best friend.Nl: Ze stond naast hem, haar wenkbrauw opgetrokken in skeptische interesse.En: She stood next to him, her eyebrow raised in skeptical interest.Nl: "En wat als Lotte ons weer in de gaten houdt?En: "And what if Lotte is watching us again?Nl: Ze ziet altijd alles."En: She sees everything."Nl: "Laten we niet wachten," zei Bram vastberaden.En: "Let's not wait," said Bram determinedly.Nl: "Dit is onze kans.En: "This is our chance.Nl: We moeten het gewoon proberen na schooltijd."En: We just have to try after school."Nl: Onderweg naar hun les kwamen ze Lotte tegen, de geheimzinnige prefect die altijd net wat meer leek te weten dan ze vertelde.En: On their way to class, they bumped into Lotte, the mysterious prefect who always seemed to know just a bit more than she let on.Nl: Ze glimlachte subtiel, maar Bram voelde haar ogen in zijn rug priemen toen ze verder liepen.En: She smiled subtly, but Bram felt her eyes bore into his back as they walked on.Nl: Toen de schooldag was afgelopen, wachtten Bram en Anouk tot het donker werd.En: When the school day was over, Bram and Anouk waited until dark.Nl: Met kloppende harten en een oude zaklamp in de hand glipten ze langs de deuren van de docenten.En: With pounding hearts and an old flashlight in hand, they slipped past the teachers' doors.Nl: Ze wisten dat Lotte waarschijnlijk rondliep, maar hun nieuwsgierigheid dreef hen verder de verlaten gangen in.En: They knew Lotte was probably wandering around, but their curiosity drove them further into the deserted halls.Nl: Ze vonden de oude bibliotheek waar Bram het boek had ontdekt.En: They found the old library where Bram had discovered the book.Nl: In een van de boeken zat tot zijn verrassing een geplooide kaart verstopt.En: To his surprise, a folded map was hidden in one of the books.Nl: "Dit is het," fluisterde hij opgewonden.En: "This is it," he whispered excitedly.Nl: De kaart leidde hen naar een geheime deur, verborgen achter een oud schilderij.En: The map led them to a secret door, hidden behind an old painting.Nl: Net toen ze de deur probeerden te openen, verscheen Lotte plotseling uit de schaduwen.En: Just as they tried to open the door, Lotte suddenly appeared from the shadows.Nl: "Ik wist dat jullie hier zouden komen," zei ze, zonder boosheid in haar stem.En: "I knew you would come here," she said, without anger in her voice.Nl: Ze haalde een sleutel uit haar zak.En: She pulled a key from her pocket.Nl: "Ik help jullie, maar alleen onder één voorwaarde: dat je de geheimen van deze kamer niet verklapt."En: "I'll help you, but only on one condition: that you don't reveal the secrets of this room."Nl: Bram en Anouk keken elkaar verbaasd aan, maar knikten instemmend.En: Bram and Anouk looked at each other in amazement but nodded in agreement.Nl: Samen draaiden ze de sleutel om en openden ze de deur.En: Together they turned the key and opened the door.Nl: Binnen vonden ze geen groot geheim of verborgen schat, maar wel een kamer vol oude, sentimentele voorwerpen – zoals oude paasversieringen en foto's van vroegere feesten op school.En: Inside, they found no great secret or hidden treasure, but a room full of old, sentimental items—like old Easter decorations and photos of past celebrations at the school.Nl: "We moeten de herinneringen bewaren," zei Lotte zacht.En: "We must preserve the memories," said Lotte softly.Nl: De kamer was een eerbetoon aan het verleden en de vele generaties leerlingen die voor hen waren gekomen.En: The room was a tribute to the past and the many generations of students who had come before them.Nl: Uiteindelijk besloten Bram en Anouk om het geheim van de kamer te bewaren.En: In the end, Bram and Anouk decided to keep the room's secret.Nl: Ze begrepen dat sommige mysteries beter verborgen blijven, zodat ze hun magie en betekenis niet verliezen.En: They understood that some mysteries are better left hidden, so they don't lose their magic and meaning.Nl: Lotte, nu hun medestander, glimlachte naar hen als nieuwe vrienden.En: Lotte, now their ally, smiled at them as new friends.Nl: Vanaf die dag wandelden Bram en Anouk door de gangen met nieuwe waardering voor hun school en zijn tradities.En: From that day on, Bram and Anouk walked through the halls with a new appreciation for their school and its traditions.Nl: De kamer bleef een prachtig geheim, een bijzondere schat voor degenen die het mochten ontdekken.En: The room remained a beautiful secret, a special treasure for those who were allowed to discover it.

Story Transcript:Hu: A tavasz beköszöntött a dombtetőn álló bentlakásos iskola kertjébe.En: Spring arrived in the garden of the boarding school situated on the hilltop.Hu: A virágzó fák illata betöltötte a levegőt.En: The scent of blooming trees filled the air.Hu: Az iskola épülete, régi köveiből emelt falai között sok titkot rejtett.En: The school building, with its old stone walls, held many secrets.Hu: Az épület folyosói hosszúak és kanyargósak voltak, tele eldugott zugokkal, amelyek a régi idők suttogásait hordozták.En: The hallways were long and winding, full of hidden nooks that carried the whispers of old times.Hu: Levente, a kíváncsi diák, a legendák rabja volt.En: Levente, the curious student, was captivated by legends.Hu: Hallott már korábban egy titokzatos szobáról az iskola mélyén, tele rejtélyes tárgyakkal.En: He had previously heard about a mysterious room deep within the school, filled with enigmatic objects.Hu: Múlt héten eltűnt a szoba kulcsa, és az iskola igazgatása erről mit sem tudott.En: Last week, the key to the room disappeared, and the school's administration knew nothing about it.Hu: Levente bosszankodva mesélte el Erzternek, mit is hallott a többiektől, és elhatározta, hogy felderíti az eltűnés körüli rejtélyt.En: Levente recounted with annoyance to Eszter what he had heard from the others and decided to solve the mystery surrounding the disappearance.Hu: Eszter, aki híres volt éles elméjéről, rögtön felajánlotta segítségét.En: Eszter, known for her sharp mind, quickly offered her help.Hu: "Talán Ágnes néni, a könyvtáros, tud valamit erről," mondta.En: "Perhaps Ágnes néni, the librarian, knows something about this," she said.Hu: Tudták, hogy Ágnes sok titkot őrizett az iskola múltjáról.En: They knew that Ágnes kept many secrets about the school's past.Hu: Barátságos mosollyal keresték fel a könyvtárban.En: They sought her out in the library with a friendly smile.Hu: Ágnes óvatosan hallgatta meg őket, majd így szólt: "A szoba létezéséről pletykák terjengenek.En: Ágnes listened to them cautiously, then said, "Rumors spread about the room's existence.Hu: De nem könnyű megtalálni.En: But it is not easy to find."Hu: " Félreeső könyveket emelt le a polcról, és régi térképeket mutatott, melyeken az iskola alaprajza látszott.En: She pulled aside some obscure books from the shelves and showed them old maps displaying the floor plan of the school.Hu: "Egy rejtett átjáró lehet az alagsorban," mondta sejtelmesen.En: "There might be a hidden passage in the basement," she said mysteriously.Hu: Levente és Eszter elhatározták, hogy belevágnak a kutatásba.En: Levente and Eszter decided to dive into the investigation.Hu: A könyvtár egy eldugott része alján találtak egy rejtett ajtót.En: At the bottom of a secluded part of the library, they found a hidden door.Hu: Az ajtó mögött lépcsők vezettek le egy titkos folyosóra.En: Behind the door, stairs led down to a secret corridor.Hu: A sötét, poros alagút végén meglátták a fénytörést.En: At the end of the dark, dusty tunnel, they saw the light's diffraction.Hu: Ott rejtőzött a padlón a kulcs.En: There on the floor lay the missing key.Hu: Levente egész testében izgatottságot érzett.En: Levente felt a surge of excitement coursing through his body.Hu: Ez volt az, amit kerestek.En: This was what they had been looking for.Hu: Visszatérve az iskolai főépületbe, a kulcs segítségével kinyitották a rejtélyes szobát.En: Returning to the school's main building, they used the key to unlock the mysterious room.Hu: Bent régi levelek, fényképek és más történelmi relikviák hevertek.En: Inside lay old letters, photographs, and other historical relics.Hu: Az egyik levél az iskola alapítójához tartozott.En: One of the letters belonged to the school's founder.Hu: Meglepetten fedezték fel, hogy a szoba valóban az iskola elfeledett örökségét őrizte.En: They were surprised to discover that the room indeed preserved the forgotten heritage of the school.Hu: Levente megértette, hogy a múlt tiszteletet érdemel.En: Levente realized that the past deserved respect.Hu: Rájött, hogy a rejtélyek érdekesebbek, ha barátokkal oszthatja meg őket.En: He understood that mysteries are more intriguing when shared with friends.Hu: Eszter és ő Ágnes társaságában kávét kortyolgatva meghallgatták a régi történeteket, és élvezték az ünnepek kezdetét, melyek során tudásukat továbbadhatták az iskola lakóinak.En: Eszter, Ágnes, and he sipped coffee while listening to old stories and enjoyed the start of the holidays, during which they could pass on their knowledge to the school's residents.Hu: Így ért véget a kaland, egy újfajta barátság kezdetével és az iskola régi történeteinek friss felfedezésével az emlékezetben.En: Thus the adventure ended, with the beginning of a new kind of friendship and the fresh discovery of the school's old stories in memory.Hu: Az iskola új nap virágzott, történeteivel és titkaival gazdagabban.En: The school bloomed with a new day, richer with its stories and secrets.

Seven children died in the first year of the Carlisle Indian Industrial School's operation. Another 220 died over the school's next 38 years. They are among the more than 3,100 students a year-long Washington Post investigation finds died while separated from their families in Indian Boarding Schools. Their tally is three times that of the recent investigation by the U.S. Department of Interior. Many of the deaths are attributed to illness, accidents, or neglect. Others have no official explanation or remain suspicious. We'll discuss the Post's investigation and why having an accurate accounting is important. GUESTS Jim LaBelle (Iñupiaq), board member for the National Native American Boarding School Healing Coalition Benjamin Jacuk (Dena'ina Athabascan and Sugpiaq), researcher at the Alaska Native Heritage Center Dana Hedgpeth (Haliwa-Saponi), reporter at the Washington Post

In this episode, we talk with Ru Callender, author of What Remains: Life, Death, and the Human Art of Undertaking. Ru shares his personal experience with profound childhood loss to becoming a self-proclaimed radical undertaker. We also discuss the impact of grief at different life stages, how participation in funerals can be helpful for children, and reimagining rituals to accurately reflect the life of the person who died. Main topics: Parental Loss and Early Grief: Ru reflects on the loss of his father at age 7 and his mother in his 20s, sharing how these defining losses shaped his perspective on death and grief. Boarding School and Emotional Austerity: The impact of being sent away shortly after his father's death. Becoming a Radical Undertaker: After a chance encounter with a TV program, Ru was inspired to challenge conventional funeral practices and embrace more personal, inclusive rituals. Children and Grief: Why including children in funerals can be helpful, offering them tangible ways to process and revisit their grief. Radical Funeral Planning: Ru's vision for end-of-life ceremonies, including his own desire for a midsummer funeral pyre, and how he helps families create ceremonies that resonate deeply. The Role of Grief in Life: How grief manifests and resurfaces, and the creative ways Ru has processed his own grief through rituals and art.

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, hosts discuss the impact of weather-related school cancellations, particularly snow days, on children's education and well-being. They reflect on how traditional snow days have shifted post-COVID, with many schools opting for remote learning instead of allowing kids a break from schoolwork. Dr. Kathy encourages listeners to use these moments of disruption to consider broader questions about the educational system and to explore opportunities for character development throughout a child's schooling from preschool to grade 12. The segment aims to provide encouragement and insight into making the most of unexpected school closures.

Chief Red Cloud was a Lakota leader in the late 1800s, when the conflict between the US government and Native Americans was intense, and he was the tribal chief when the Catholic church built a boarding school on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. Generations of children were traumatized by their experience at the school, whose mission was to strip them of their language and culture.Red Cloud's descendant Dusty Lee Nelson and other members of the community are seeking reparations from the church. “In my heart, in my soul, I feel like the best thing that they can do is to exit the reservation, return all property, and pay us,” Nelson said.In the second half of Reveal's two-part collaboration with ICT (formerly Indian Country Today), members of the Pine Ridge community put pressure on the Catholic church to share information about the boarding school it ran on the reservation.ICT reporter Mary Annette Pember, a citizen of the Red Cliff Band of Ojibwe, travels to the archives of the Bureau of Catholic Indian Missions. She discovers that many records are redacted or off-limits, but then comes across a diary written by nuns. Buried in the diary entries is information about the school's finances, the massacre at Wounded Knee, and children who died at the school more than a century ago. This is a rebroadcast of an episode that originally aired in October 2022.  Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at Revealnews.org/weekly Instagram

In the early 1990s, Justin Pourier was a maintenance man at Red Cloud Indian School, a Catholic school on the Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. One day, he says he stumbled upon small graves in the school's basement. For nearly 30 years, Pourier would be haunted by what he saw and told no one except his wife. “Those are Native children down there…hopefully their spirit was able to travel on to whatever is beyond this world,” Pourier says. In 2022, he urged school officials to search the basement for the graves.The hunt for unmarked graves of Native children isn't happening just at Red Cloud, now called Maȟpíya Lúta. It's one of more than 400 Indian boarding schools across the country that were part of a program designed by the federal government to “kill the Indian and save the man”—those were the actual words of one of the architects of the plan to destroy Native culture. In a historic first this fall, President Joe Biden apologized to Native Americans on behalf of the United States for the country's past Indian boarding school policies.This week on Reveal, in a two-part collaboration with ICT (formerly Indian Country Today), we expose the painful legacy of boarding schools for Native children with ICT reporter Mary Annette Pember, a citizen of the Red Cliff Band of Ojibwe. She's been writing about these schools for more than two decades. This is a rebroadcast of an episode that originally aired in October 2022.  Support Reveal's journalism at Revealnews.org/donatenow Subscribe to our weekly newsletter to get the scoop on new episodes at revealnews.org/weekly Connect with us on Twitter, Facebook and Instagram
