Eleven years after the bodies of Anthony Keegan (33) and Eoin O'Connor (32) were discovered buried on Inchicup Island, Dublin woman Ruth Lawrence (45) has gone on trial for their murder. She has pleaded not guilty.The prosecution has laid out its case: alleging that Lawrence worked “as a unit” with her South African boyfriend Neville van der Westhuizen to kill O'Connor, a drug dealer and his friend Keegan.Van der Westhuizen was in considerable debt to O'Connor.It was further alleged that Lawrence and her boyfriend had “spoken openly” about “the murders and disposing of the bodies”.The jury has already heard from the landlord of the remote Co Meath lakeside cottage where the accused and her boyfriend were living at the time of the murder. He testified how they had asked to borrow a boat with an engine and had done so.Set to last until November, the judge sent the jury away on Tuesday due to a medical issue with a witness but the court heard on Thursday that the trial would continue.Court reporter Alison O'Riordan has been following the trial.Presented by Bernice Harrison.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. As Hamas announced it has released all the bodies of hostages that can be found, Berman asks whether Hamas is playing games or whether they can't locate the remaining 19 bodies. The prevailing thought in the government cabinet is that Hamas can access more if it so desired, and therefore, Israel will slowly ramp up the pressure on Hamas, for now, blocking reconstruction materials. Berman also talks about whether the war against Hamas has ended, given that Israel hasn’t declared an end and wants to keep the military threat hanging over Hamas’s head unless it moves forward with its obligations in the peace plan. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was diagnosed with bronchitis on Wednesday, amid his long-delayed corruption trial. Berman comments that the prime minister, who is about to turn 76, doesn't have perfect health and was in close contact with recently released hostages whose immune systems have been compromised.

You're listening to Burnt Toast! I'm Virginia Sole-Smith. Today, my conversation is with Laura Birek. You probably know Laura as co-host of The Big Fat Positive Podcast, but today she's here to talk about her new book, co authored with Gia Gambaro Blount. It's called Good to Go: A Fresh Take on Potty Training for Today's Intentional Parent.I'm years past potty training (thank God!!), but I honestly remember the pain of it better than childbirth. This is often a very fraught parenting milestone. And as with all things parenting: That means we encounter a ton of societal expectations and pressures around how to get potty training right, which makes it all even harder. If you, too, have been a victim of that viral three day potty training method, you'll want to hear this conversation. Laura has amazing advice about how to recover and do it differently. But even if you're child-free or years out from this experience: What we're really talking about today is how perfectionism and performative parenting can make life harder for parents (especially moms!) and really get in the way of kids' body autonomy. And of course, promoting body autonomy is core to the work we do here on Burnt Toast.Today's episode is free!

You can find it everywhere. And then I am also the co-host of a long running parenting and pregnancy podcast called The Big Fat Positive Podcast. I've been doing that for over seven years now. Every week for seven years! VirginiaYou are an OG podcaster! I love the podcast. I've been on the podcast. But today we are going to talk about Good to Go. Because you reached out to me and you said, "Potty training culture is such a thing. Can we talk about it?" And I am not going to share my own children's stories. But I'm going to say, yeah, it is such a thing. And it really messes with our heads. And of course, my work is all about investigating cultural messages that mess with our heads, aka diet culture. So yes, let's talk about potty training diet culture today. You kick off the book with the story of how you tried and failed to train your older kiddo, who you call Augie in the book. And the impetus was that you read the super popular three day potty training book that I think most of our listeners who have potty trained a child have encountered. Why did the idea that you could magically change potty train your child in three days go so wrong?LauraSo we kind of fell into that new parent trap of "This kid's a genius!" He was hitting all his milestones early. He was such a talker. And I had been given that very, very popular three day potty training method that shall not be named. And I read it and really took it as gospel. And in the book, there were all these signs of readiness. And I was like, check, check, check, for Augie. It was stuff like, is he interested in the potty? And I thought, oh, this kid is ready, according to this book. And there were extenuating circumstances--namely, the pandemic. We were deep in the pandemic. We were also stuck indoors because there was a wildfire nearby, so we weren't even able to go outside. That's Southern California life for you. And I was in my second trimester with my second pregnancy. So all of these things came together to be like, well, you know, what the hell? Let's give it a try. VirginiaWe're trapped indoors anyways. LauraWe're trapped indoors. Let's spend three days naked and see what happens. And so the very first sentence of our book is: "I'm a failure at potty training." Which is a very weird way to start a potty training book.VirginiaBut so relatable. LauraOh, I hope it's relatable! Because the thing is, we thought we were a success at the very beginning. Right after those three days, he was mostly making it to the potty. We were like, okay, we can take away diapers. But what we didn't realize is that we had just entered into a state of constant vigilance with him. We were constantly reminding him to go, and we were always nervous about going anywhere and doing anything with him, like even just going to the park. We never got over the stress level, right? My mom would say, "He wasn't potty trained. You were potty trained."VirginiaYou were trying to take him to the potty obsessively and monitor all the signs.LauraExactly, exactly. And the other thing was, I had this idea that having two kids in diapers was going to be hard. I don't know where I got this idea! Everyone is like oh, you can't have two kids in diapers.VirginiaIt feels like a really common cultural message. I've heard a lot of friends say that, who have kids close in age. "Oh we have got to get her out of diapers before the next one comes!" LauraActually having two kids in diapers is way more convenient than one who's in a very early stage of potty training and a newborn! That was our first mistake. But we just continued to deal with this stress around going places. And at some point, I ended up having the baby. Augie was still out of diapers, but he was having accidents. In our book, we call them misses, but this author called them accidents, so we'll stick with accidents. It's the more familiar term. And he was having accidents all the time, and I was really stressed out about it. Then I take my new baby, we call him Sebastian, to a local place called the Family Room, which is where I did mommy and me classes, and then toddler and me classes with my now co-author, Gia Gambaro Blount. I brought him for a lactation support group. But Gia happened to be there, and I descended upon Gia. I was like, "Gia, I need your help. Augie is having all these problems with potty training. I don't know what to do." And she looked at me, and said, "Can I ask you something? When you decided to potty train him, did you tell him it was going to happen?" And I was like, "No." Because the book specifically tells you you're not supposed to do that. VirginiaYou just spring it on them.LauraThe book tells you, do not even have the little potties out, because it will confuse their little brains. And I didn't know anything about potty training at the time, so I was like, "Sure, that sounds legit. Whatever." So Gia was like, "You need to go back and ask him how he's feeling about this." So I go back and I look Augie in the eyes. I'm like, "Hey baby. I know we've been having a lot of accidents. Do you think you want to go back to diapers for a little bit?" And he was like, "Yes!" Instantly. "Yes, yes, yes, I want to go back to diapers!" And I was shocked by that, because I thought he was going to be like, "No, I'm a big boy!" VirginiaHe was like, no, I'm really not ready for that. LauraAnd so we went back to diapers, which, by the way, in the 3 day method is a big no no. Like, huge regression. And there was also this strict thing about having to potty train between 18 and 30 months, and if you don't do it between those times, you've ruined them forever. At least, that's that's the takeaway I had.VirginiaAnd if you could do it beforehand, even better.LauraYes! So I was really worried about all that. But the minute we put him back in diapers, the stress went away. And you know, TL/DR, he is not ruined forever. We ended up actually potty training him using Gia's help just after he turned three. VirginiaEverything in your story is so deeply relatable. Because I think those first years of parenting are such chaos. And this is certainly not all moms... but there's a certain kind of mom who is vulnerable to this message of "control as much of it as you can." Have the feeding schedules, track the ins and outs when they're newborns. There is a need to have a lot of information and structure around what is otherwise just this sea of "when will we ever sleep again? When will anything happen?" That makes us really vulnerable to messages like "You want to achieve this milestone by a certain age." Or "You want to achieve this milestone before you have another baby." There is this idea that we somehow get a gold star if we get it done at a certain point. And now that I have kids who are way, way older, and I'm just like, "I don't even remember when it all happened." You don't look at a bunch of seventh graders, and think, "Well, I can tell  you didn't potty train till 3.5." LauraAnd I think that I am one of those moms who is totally susceptible to that. We had a sleep schedule with my first. And I think part of it is that I had my kids later in life, I already had a career. And when you have kids, any control you have over your days, over your schedule, over your life, just flies out the window. So I think I was grasping at anything that would give me a sense of control in my life. And rightfully so! So I'm not saying that those things don't help people —I actually do think some of the sleep schedule stuff helped us. Or we got lucky, and that just happened to align with my kid's personality.VirginiaYou had a baby who was like, "Yes, fine, we'll do a schedule."LauraExactly. I don't know. There's no way to know, but it did give me a sense of control. The trap with that is, say you have a good experience, like I did with sleep training , and then you go to potty training and it's not as successful. Suddenly you think it's some kind of referendum on your own parenting. VirginiaYes! LauraHaving a second kid is really helpful — or third or fourth, I imagine, even more— but having more than one kid has really helped me realize that so much of parenting is luck of the draw with your kid's personality and temperament and all that stuff. But with your first, it can feel like such pressure and such responsibility for you to be the person who figures it all out. When it turns out that a lot of things are just not figure out-able, or need time or a different approach, or you need to be flexible.VirginiaSocial media has not helped in all of this, for sure. I mean, not that everybody documents their kids potty training on social media, but it's of a piece with needing to celebrate milestones in this public way, I think.LauraHopefully one of the gifts that we give with our book is this concept that potty training is not a light switch. It's not a binary. You're not either potty trained or not in some clear crossing the finish line manner. Instead, we describe it as a continuum in terms of how much parental involvement is required. So at the very, very beginning, those first days, weeks, even months, you're in the highly involved phase, where you are doing a lot of reminding and you're doing a lot of cleaning up of pee on floor. You're doing a lot of thinking about it. Then you go into the occasionally involved phase, which is fewer accidents, they know they need to go, but you still have to wipe their butts until kindergarten, at least usually. That's something that the other books don't really tell you. They frame it as, "oh, you're done after three days." But these kids need help! There are just some physiological reasons why little kids have trouble wiping their own butts. Their heads are huge! Their proportions are all off. Some kids physically cannot reach their butts. But no one's telling you that. So our goal in the book is to try to shorten the highly involved phase so that you're in the occasionally involved phase quicker, and then finally you'll get to the point where you're rarely involved. We say that there's some day in the future where you won't know the last time your kid went to the bathroom. But that's years away. I mean, in my house, it's still getting announced! So if you can think of it as the spectrum of where you're in this process, then you can be a little bit less like, oh, okay, so and so just posted "oh, my two year old potty trained in one weekend." You can know in your head: Okay, yeah, that just means they're not wearing diapers on a daily basis, right? But caregivers are still involved.VirginiaYeah, it doesn't mean the two year old is like, "Okay, mom, I'll be back in a minute!"LauraPeople will come out of the woodwork and be like, "My two year old self potty trained, they won't let me be involved. They do everything!" And it's like, I am so happy for you. But that is not the majority of kids and we need to just understand that's not an expectation we should have.VirginiaI also appreciate understanding the stages more, and the fact that you and Gia really emphasized that this means you can decide readiness, not just based on your kid. So: Are they achieving these certain milestones? Are they checking these boxes? But also: Consider yourself. Are you, the parent, ready? Maybe when you're about to have a newborn, you don't want to be in the highly involved potty training phase. If you don't think you can get all the way to "less involved" by the time the baby comes, maybe put this on hold for a while. And that just gives us so much more permission to center our own needs in the process. And to actually have needs, which is another thing the three day discourse really leaves out. The idea that you as the parent would have any other things going on other than potty training.LauraMost of the 3 day experts say you cannot leave the house for three days. Okay, that's great for a stay at home parent who has no other kids. But what happens when you have an older kid that needs to go to soccer practice? What happens if you have a prescription you need to pick up from the pharmacy?VirginiaOr you're a single parent.LauraOr a single parent doing it all. Exactly.We were in a pandemic, in a wildfire, and that's why I was like, okay, we can stay home for three days. There has been no other time in our lives we've been able to stay inside for three days. Those unrealistic expectations really set you up for failure. And then on top of that, the message in all these other methods is, "If your child is still having issues after the three days, you must have done something wrong. You must have not followed my method perfectly."That's with so much of parenting, right? But no, every kid is going to react differently and have a different timeline. And also, sometimes prescriptions need to be picked up at the pharmacy. VirginiaMy listeners frequently get a little annoyed when I say everything is a diet. But: A system that tells you that if it didn't work, it's because you didn't do it right is 100 percent classic diet culture. It's classic like, well, if only you'd followed it, if only you'd have better discipline... as opposed to: This just isn't a match for what you're trying to do right now. This isn't the way for you. Laura And it's trying to police this thing that everyone has to do, too. I think that's just such an interesting analog to diet culture as well. We all have to eat. I know you've written about this, right? Even the most restrictive diet is going to have to provide some food, because you will die. And we all have to eliminate our waste and, save children with medical issues that may prevent them from potty training, almost all of us are going to end up having to learn to use a toilet at some point. It's this thing we all have to do. And yet, we're being told there's this one right way to do it. But there are also at least five different people saying their way is the one right way. What gets more diet-y than that?VirginiaAnother thing I really appreciated is what Gia emphasizes in terms of assessing your child's readiness. Because it's not just the cognitive signs, like, do they have the language? Are they looking at the potty and interested or following you into the bathroom? She also talks about this concept of interoception, which is something that comes up a lot when we talk about helping kids be intuitive eaters. So again, there are these parallels between food and potty stuff. Can you explain how understanding where a child is with their interoception development can help you prepare for a more intuitive approach to potty training?LauraWe talk about the three realms of readiness: There are the cognitive signs, the social-emotional signs and the physical signs. But we further split those up into two categories. Some of these things are teachable signs, and then there are some unteachable things that are just developmental. A really good example of that is in the cognitive signs of readiness. An unteachable sign is whether your child is curious about you going to the potty, right? That is often listed as a sign of readiness, like, oh, your child wants to know what you're doing. Why are you sitting on the potty? Wants to come be with you in the bathroom. You can't teach that level of interest, right? And if you tried it would be weird. And interoception is another unteachable sign. There's nothing we can do to force your child to have more awareness of what's going on in their body. That's a thing we're kind of born with that is on another spectrum. Some people are incredibly sensitive. I'm a person who's been accused of being a hypochondriac, and I think part of that is I have heightened interoception. I feel every ache and pain. I always felt when I ovulated, for example. I also heard once that only some people can tell when their heart's beating. That's just a sign that some people have a more sensitive sense of interoception versus others, right? We can't teach it. It's just the way your kid is. What we can teach is supporting their interpretation of their interoception. An example that's not potty training related is if your child gets goosebumps, you can help them identify: Do you have goosebumps because you're feeling cold, or do you have goosebumps because you're scared? Goosebumps have a feeling associated with them, and you can't teach them how to feel that. But what you can do is try to connect language to the feeling. And that's hard. That is the hard work of potty training, honestly. And so Gia and I identified something we called the universal potty sequence, just to keep it short in our brain, which is, when we are as adults, go to the bathroom. We say we're going to the bathroom. We think of it as one step, but in reality, it's up to nine steps. We identified nine steps. But you know, it's a bunch of different steps that the kids have to learn. It's all new for them, right? So the first step is feeling. The sensation is that interoception, every step after that is kind of mechanical, right? Like you navigate to the potty, then you pull down your pants, then you sit on the potty, then you eliminate, then you flush, blah, blah, right? So we have this thing we call the rehearsal period. That's about two weeks ish--again, everything is flexible--before you actually plan to take away diapers, where you teach everything on the universal potty sequence, all those steps, all those new things, all those new mechanics for them. Except step one: Feel the sensation. That one we are leaving to when you take away diapers. The point is when kids are thrown into "we're taking away diapers. We're taking away this thing that you've worn your entire life!" this way, the only thing they have to learn is how to connect the sensation to the need to go. Everything else isn't brand new, so the other eight steps aren't so overwhelming. All we're focusing on is interoception, and so that's what we're trying to really center in our method to help our kids connect the dots. And that's why we also don't forbid prompting. Some kids are not going to have a strong sensation, and you're going to need to sometimes, in retrospect, be like, "hmm, there's pee on the floor now, you you had a miss." And we say miss, because we don't want there to be shame involved, right? We don't want to say, oh, it's an accident. It's not really an accident. They just didn't get to the potty in time, right? or they didn't even think to try to go. So we say, "Oh, you had a miss. Do you remember what it felt like before it came out? Next time we feel that feeling, let's see if we can catch it before we go." So we're working on that. And some kids need that extra support. Honestly, my six year old still likes to get hyper focused, and so he does need to get prompted to this day. And no one would say, oh, that six year old's not potty trained. He's definitely potty trained at school. He's fine, but sometimes we just need to help him connect. I mean, how many adults do you know who wait till the last second go to the bathroom?VirginiaThat's me, every work day. What I love about this is how you're really centering kids' body autonomy in this process. And in way that is so counter to how I've seen body training explained before. This feels like such a huge shift. I mean, I remember when I was doing it with my own kids, feeling like, "the way I'm doing this doesn't feel aligned with the way I'm thinking about feeding them," for example. When I'm feeding kids, I'm really focused on the power of their ability to say no to a food they don't like, and why that's important. And the importance of not pushing them past their fullness cues and helping them notice hunger cues. Their body autonomy is the center of it. And potty training is this thing where because we're so focused on getting it done, because we've got all this pressure on it, it's like... suddenly they don't have body autonomy in the process at all. And that feels really troubling.LauraIt does. I mean, I came to that same revelation. It was part of what allowed me to feel okay with putting Augie back in diapers, VirginiaYeah, because you gave him his power back. LauraExactly and I realized this exact same thing you said. I am so dedicated to respectful parenting. I'm a Virginia Sole-Smith fan girl! Like I read all your books, and I'm offering foods without judgment, and all of that stuff. And yet, in this one realm, I fell into the trap of not just not centering his body autonomy, I like full on ignored it. I mean, it sounds awful, but I really did violate his own body autonomy. I forced him to do things he wasn't ready for. And I do feel bad about it to this day. And it's not an inconsequential thing, right? Like, people say, No one's going to college still, still using a diaper. Everyone eventually learns to potty. And it's true. But there is a lot of shame around using the bathroom. There was some Vice article that just came out, which said, like, 83 percent of Gen Zers have bathroom anxiety. And a bunch of them want to quit because of it. They don't want to have a job because they're afraid of using the bathroom. VirginiaI'm an old millennial, but I have some women's magazine bathroom trauma. I understand what they're saying. It's a stressful place. LauraAnd I'm not saying I enjoy pooping in a public bathroom either! But there are consequences, and not just about anxiety. There are actual physical consequences to involving shame in the potty training process. There's encopresis, which is a specific type of constipation and a really big problem that is so hard to solve. I've heard from so many parents whose children have it. It's a form of chronic constipation, and what happens is you're so constipated that liquid poop escapes around the sides of the impacted stool, and kids can't tell anymore that they have to poop because their colon is so enlarged. And this is a much more common problem than people realize, and it's really hard to solve once it's started. It's something you really want to get ahead of. And that's the other reason we say if your child is refusing to poop in the potty, give them a diaper. You need to get that poop out one way or another, and it's not a judgment on whether you've been able to potty train them or not. We're looking at the long game here. We're trying to create a child who doesn't have long term problems that require a ton of medical intervention. What's worse, having to go to a GI doctor for the next five years or just giving them a diaper to poop in at the end of the day?VirginiaAnd giving them another month or six months in diapers, and then you try again. LauraIt goes back to the perfectionism, though. Like, when you put it that way, you're like, yeah, of course, I'll give them a diaper. But if you've been told no, they're going to be confused. It's failure. That's harder. It's not failure. These kids are way smarter than most people give them credit for, like, they will know the difference. They're not going to be confused about what's going on.VirginiaI think another piece of this body autonomy conversation is night training. I really love that Gia does not endorse night training. I mean, I have heard of parents setting alarms to wake toddlers up to pee at 11pm so that they could say they were night trained. Just tell us why this is so unnecessary.LauraNight training is absolutely unnecessary. We did a ton of research to make sure we were right. Night training is just not effective. It's really a one hundred percent developmental shift that happens in your child's brain and their body. When they are ready, they will be night trained. And there's nothing you can do to force it. One in 6 kids at age six still wet the bed at night. At age seven, that goes down to one in 10. But that's still a lot of kids! One in 10 kids in your second grade class are still wetting the bed at night. And that's fine and developmentally normal. And so if we know that, if we can normalize that, it may lessen the pressure for night training. There's a scientific term for waking them at night to sit them on the potty. They call it lifting. And the research shows that lifting has no measurable outcomes like lifting. People who practice lifting had no better results than people who just let their kids sleep. And I would imagine—this is just my hypothesis—that those parents are crabby because they have to wake up in the middle of the night to do it. And their kids are also probably crabby for having gotten woken up, even if they're half awake, right? So we are firmly in the belief that you don't have to do night training. That said, we tell you when to start looking for signs that it's time to take away night time diapers and how to do it. And also what to do when your kid is getting up to pee in the middle of the night, and that becomes a problem. So if your child is waking up in the middle of the night every night to go pee — we get into how to address that, what the root causes might be, and how to how to deal with that when the time comes. But we say do not do night training at the same time as daytime training. Your kids will likely just night train themselves during or after the process. One in 10 will take past age seven.VirginiaThe last thing I want to hit on is the stuff piece of potty training. There's a lot marketed to us, a lot of gear, different types of potties, all of that. And I would love to hear your take on what is actually useful and what is just marketing, and you can probably skip. LauraLike anything parenting-related, mom-related specifically, there are going to be people trying to sell you a bunch of stuff. But I mean, basically you need a pot to piss in, right? Like, that is the bare bones of what you need. A lot of people ask us about the floor potties: Do I really need a floor potty? A lot of people find them kind of gross, unsightly. I get it. You don't want to have a little toilet in your living room. Yeah, I didn't either. But if you buy nothing else, we recommend having a floor potty. And you don't have to buy them — there are going to be 20 parents in your neighborhood who are desperate to get these out of their basements! You can get over the fact that it was used by another kid, just get some Clorox. You know, you're fine. You don't have to spend actual money on any of this stuff, because it is a thing that you only need for a narrow window of time. So we recommend, at the bare minimum, having a floor potty for this reason: There are three types of awareness when it comes to your internal body awareness. There's sensation awareness, which is, oh, I have to go. The action awareness is: Is it pee or poop? And then there's urgency awareness, which is like, the real key to all of this. Urgency awareness is how much lead time you have between noticing the feeling and getting to a toilet. And when you are first potty training, in the first days and weeks, that urgency awareness window is seconds. We're talking like five seconds between when a kid recognizes and when they go. Because of that, we want to give them as many opportunities to have a win as possible, right? Like, you don't want to clean up pee off your floor, and you want your kid to feel successful, right? The more chances they have to successfully make it to the potty, the better everyone's going to feel, and the like, quicker the process is going to go. And sometimes the difference between a win and a miss is the time it takes to walk from the living room to the bathroom.In addition, there are a lot of things about the big potty that scare kids or just are really, really challenging for kids. It's high up, so you have to have a step stool or something. Usually you have to have some kind of insert for the seat. So like, if you're like, oh, I don't want to buy a floor potty, you're still having to buy a step stool and a seat insert. So that's two things versus the one floor potty. And kids can be scared of the balancing being high up. They can be scared of the plopping, like the poop falling all the way into the bowl. We have some techniques to help them get over that, but there are just more barriers to entry for most kids to use the adult potty at the get-go. Obviously, you can work towards that. And I always hear from people like, well, my kid wouldn't even go in the small potty. It's like, okay, there you go. Now, you know. All the more reason to get one from some other parent. If you have a really big house, two floor potties could be helpful so you don't have to be carrying them around everywhere you go. I mean the amount of time I've spent in my life carrying around a little floor potty full of pee. It's just so gross. It's such a glamorous life we live as parents. And then the only other thing that I'd say is really a good buy if you're in the car a lot, is a travel potty.VirginiaOne hundred percent. LauraThere are so many great ones now. I have the Oxo one, it like, folds up into this flat little package. And you can either pop the legs vertical, so that you put a little plastic bag in that has a little absorbent pad so that you can sit on the potty in the backseat of the car or the trunk or whatever. But it also folds out, so it can be a little seat to use in public bathrooms. And that's honestly really great. Public bathrooms are a whole other topic that we actually talk a lot about in the book. But one major thing is that their butts are too small. They just so you either have to hold them, and it's a whole thing, or you can have this travel potty with you, which gives them a seat that's their size and makes it more accessible. ButterVirginiaWell, this was fantastic. Speaking of stuff, though, it does not have to be stuff. Laura, do you want to give us some Butter today?LauraI do. Okay, so I went straight from saying you don't need to buy things for potty training, and then I'm going to tell you about this thing that I think you should buy for potty training. But I have to tell you about this because I have been giving these out to my friends left and right. Anytime I tell someone about it, they they're like their mind is blown. They've never heard of it before, and so I feel like I have to share it, because it's something that's been so helpful for us, and that is a disposable travel urinal. Have you ever heard of these? VirginiaI do not have children with penises, so no.LauraWell, guess what? It works for children with vulvas, too. VirginiaWow. Okay!LauraSo it's this universal spout. It's basically this sort of oval shaped spout that, if you have a penis, you point this the top part up, and if you have a vulva, you point it down, just so it catches the pee. And it's just a plastic bag, kind of like an emesis bag, but the difference is there's a little zip lock top, so you can seal it off, and there's like a gel pad at the bottom that's dry when you get it, but it absorbs liquid, kind of like what's inside of a diaper, right? And you can it folds up into this tiny little package that you can have in your purse. It's saved us so many times when you are places where you just can't get to a bathroom quickly, and they really have to pee. Because, I don't know about your kids, but no matter how many times I tell them, like we're leaving the park, let's go to the bathroom. Yeah, no, I don't have to go. And then five minutes into the drive home, I have to pee. I have to pee.And while I do have two children with penises, I don't usually like to have them pee on random people's yards, right? So really helps to be able to have this thing in the car. I will tell you the most clutch moment, which hopefully doesn't get me canceled, which is we were in line. My six year old and I were in line for the Guardians of the Galaxy breakout ride at Disney California Adventure. And it was an hour long line. And I was shocked that he was focused and able to stay in that line the whole time. But we were almost to the boarding area, and he's like, Mommy I have to pee and it was just me and him. I couldn't send him with his dad or anything. And this line is like a maze, you know how Disney does it's like they create this whole experience. But I didn't know how to get out in any quick way, even if they would have led us back in the line, I didn't know how to get out. And it was dark in there, all moody, and so it was scary. And I was like, okay, baby, just turn around. So I got him face away from the crowd, and he peed in the bag, and there was a trash can right there. And it saved us! so I highly recommend it. I have one in my purse at all times, just in case. I have yet to use it for myself, but it is apparently used by adults. Okay, yeah, yeah, absolutely so. And they, I don't have a brand recommendation. There's like 500 different brands, so just look up disposable urinal bags. VirginiaWell, my Butter is not something you can pee in, but It is body adjacent in thinking about this episode, and thinking back to earlier parenting years, because, as I said, I'm like, pretty well out of the stage. Now, I was remembering how much one of our favorite picture books at that time was Bodies Are Cool by Tyler Feder. LauraI love that book. VirginiaIt's incredible. It should be in every parent's library. It's a go-to baby shower gift for me forever, because it's just an amazing celebration of body diversity, which is all of Tyler's work. So that's a Butter I've given before, but just to re-up. But recently, a friend of mine gave me a print of Tyler's of this beautiful, fat mermaid. I'll put a photo of it in the show notes. And I actually hung it up by my bathroom, because our bathroom is near where our pool is. So now we have a lot of middle school girls changing into swimsuits all the time. And I am slowly making this bathroom my body celebration shrine. So I have three Tyler illustrations in that space. And I'm just adding to this little collection of body positive art so that when teenage girls are in there changing into swimsuits and having the feelings they can look around and be like, Oh, right. Bodies are cool. So, another way to think about your bathroom as a place to affirm that body autonomy matters. LauraYeah, it really does. VirginiaWell, this was a delight. Laura, thank you so much for joining us. Tell folks where we can follow you, how we can support your work.LauraYes.

Israel's military says one of the four bodies returned by Hamas on Tuesday is not that of a former hostage. It said Hamas had to make all efforts to return the remains of those taken on October seventh. The process has been impacted by the devastation in Gaza, with some bodies believed to be under rubble. Palestinians in Gaza are reported to be stockpiling food, amid anxiety that the ceasefire between Israel and Hamas will unravel -- and the flow of aid will stop.Also in the programme: Kenya has declared a week of national mourning for the former prime minister Raila Odinga, who's died at the age of 80; a sumo tournament is taking place outside Japan for the first time in 34 years; and the leader of one of China's biggest underground churches, Jin Mingri, has been detained, his daughter gives us the latest.(Photo: Red Cross vehicles transport the bodies of deceased hostages who had been held in Gaza.

In this new episode Tim Pilleri & Lance Reenstierna are joined by Joseph Scott Morgan of Body Bags to discuss this wild incident in true crime media. In March of 2024, the media began to report on the strange discovery of bodies found in multiple locations over a time-frame of less than a week in the New England region. Almost immediately, social media began to ask the question, “Is there an active serial killer terrorizing the citizens of New England?” Over the subsequent weeks, several more bodies were discovered and despite numerous sources and law enforcement insisting there was nothing connecting these individuals, the hornet's nest had been kicked. So is there a serial killer operating in New England? Is social media right for capitalizing on these tragic events? Whose truth does true crime convey?

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss the dance which, from when it reached Britain in the early nineteenth century, revolutionised the relationship between music, literature and people here for the next hundred years. While it may seem formal now, it was the informality and daring that drove its popularity, with couples holding each other as they spun round a room to new lighter music popularised by Johann Strauss, father and son, such as The Blue Danube. Soon the Waltz expanded the creative world in poetry, ballet, novellas and music, from the Ballets Russes of Diaghilev to Moon River and Are You Lonesome Tonight.

Welcome back to Gut Talk! We're recapping our ACL weekend—what we loved, how we treated ourselves, and how we let loose. Honest reflections, fun moments, and a reminder that it's okay to enjoy yourself while staying mindful.

In this empowering episode, Dr. Linda Bluestein is joined by OG Bendy Bodies cohost, Jennifer Milner.  Jen is a ballet coach, Pilates trainer, and specialist in working with hypermobile bodies. Together they explore why traditional movement cues don't always work for bendy bodies, how dancers and athletes can train smarter (not harder), and what it really takes to move with strength when your body doesn't follow the rules. From injury prevention to body awareness and emotional recovery, this conversation is a must-listen for anyone living in or coaching a flexible, fragile, or frequently misunderstood body. Takeaways What if the training cues you've always heard—like “pull your belly button in”—are actually setting hypermobile dancers up for injury? Could “engage your glutes” or other classic instructions be doing more harm than good for bendy bodies? Discover how Jennifer helps dancers feel in control of their limbs—even when movement feels disconnected or confusing. Why do so many talented performers burn out early, and how can mindset shifts and body literacy turn that story around? Learn what it really means to train with your body instead of fighting against it—especially when your body doesn't follow the rules.

Send us a textIf you thought retirement would mellow them out, you clearly haven't met Peaches, Trent, or Aaron.In this week's blisteringly honest episode, all three come in hot. We're talking about the mental minefield of getting out, the physical wreckage of a Special Warfare career, and the professional purgatory of trying to give a damn after years of institutional gaslighting. Peaches is post-retirement and post-patience. Trent's back from the void. Aaron is basically caffeine, rage, and a mic.Together, they break down:The lies you're sold during transitionWhy “support” feels performativeWhat finding purpose really takesAnd why the Air Force still can't memeThis episode is raw, sarcastic, and soaked in the kind of wisdom you only earn through combat, kids, and government paperwork hell. It's not for the fragile—but it might just save your sanity.
