This week Doctor Who Literature takes a week off from the Target novelizations to explore the rest of Jason's childhood bookshelves. I started reading the Target Doctor Who titles when I was 11, but I started reading just before turning 5. That's a lot of reading long before I found Terrance Dicks. So let's take an hour and walk through what Jason loved before Doctor Who. We'll discuss the Dutch-language children's fiction of Dick Bruna; the magic of Little Golden Books; the Big Three comics lines of the 1970s: Marvel, DC, and Gold Key/Whitman; baseball annuals aimed at children; and, of course, the Hardy Boys, the Choose Your Own Adventures, and the pictorial novelizations of Peanuts TV specials. We hope you'll join for this week as we walk not just through Jason's childhood bookshelves, but also, really, his brain. EDIT: I found that version of "The King" on YouTube. It's amazing.

Andy and Stephanie embark on a buoyant journey through the listener's challenges, sprinkling in their trademark ride to Camp Tough Love.

In this episode, Devi chats with Dr. Stéphane Provencher & Jennifer Luc about Billionaire Parenting. According to Dr. S and Jenn, “Every child is born a billionaire. They are born with 100 billion brain cells. It is the goal of every parent to raise their child the best they can. Part of the upbringing should include finding strategies that will fully develop all of those brain cells. When done correctly their child will be able to meet their full physical, emotional, mental and soul’s potential.” Topics discussed in this episode, include: The Whole-Listic Children’s Foundation Jenn’s story of helping her children find their voice, literally Connecting with your children through love Infertility Balancing stress levels to assist with proper healing The link between nutrition and our thoughts and emotions The emotion that hits parents when they realize that their child is dealing with a diagnosis and how to work with it The technique that was used to heal 8,000 diseases Our Emotional Guidance System How to gain access to our well being and greatness How to systematically quiet your mind Dr. S’s tool that he uses to hack his meditation How to tweak the law of attraction to create consistent results The missing component to law of attraction Loving your child into their greatness When to create a spiritual routine to support your child as a parent The impact of using phrases like “Be Careful” with your child The unpublished formula for all of the illnesses in the world How Jenn used music to help her child to learn to speak The Gifted Academy and more...

Founder of Gainesville Holistic Health Center Co-Founder, Whole-Listic Children’s Foundation and Hospital Chairman of Research, Sacro Occipital Research Society International Stéphane Provencher’s earliest memories resounded with cries of pain and discomfort. Massively obese and bullied throughout childhood, he knew one thing for certain; he was not normal. “By the time my parents divorced, it was clear that any personal road map I might have developed was shattered, my destiny was a vague memory wrapped in the solitude of despair. It was years later, after leaving school and traveling to Europe, after reading The Alchemist that I discovered my limiting beliefs were no more than an illusion. I began to ask Who am I? Why am I here? Stéphane was now free to recall how his gift for intuiting where in their bodies’ people held pain, enabled him to feel what they were feeling and help heal their emotional wounds. This awareness guided his dedicated studies and career in chiropractic as he began to understand how the intertwined relationship of the body, mind, and spirit worked together. For Stéphane, learning how emotions—not purely physical ailments—cause 90% of all pain and dis-ease, was not as much revelatory as confirmatory. The staggering realization that emitting or sending frequencies of love can restore proper balance forever changed Stéphane Provencher’s life and the lives of those he serves. “I am 100% clear that I am a vehicle. My commitment and passion is to guide as many as possible to wellness through self-love and knowledge. I invite you to initiate your own extraordinary journey of the soul.” Dr. Provencher’s dream from a young age to unite a multi-faceted model of health care in one place is underway and coming to fruition with the building of the Whole-Listic Children’s Hospital.

Last month, outspoken game designers Clint Hocking and Manveer Heir held a little cross-blog discussion regarding the design and implementation of ethical choices in video games. We are accustomed to making decisions about weapons, strategies, and the color of our Sim hairstyles, but meaningful choices with moral weight are relatively rare. Even when faced with potentially tough moral dilemmas, the current nature of video games may dilute the effect. Heir suggests in-game permanence (which has created various interesting experiments), while Hocking eschews authorial influence in favor of ludic solutions. It is tough topic, so we decided to we decided to call for backup. This week, we have are honored to welcome Nels Anderson, author of the excellent Above49 blog and gameplay programmer for Hot Head Games. Join us while we discuss permanence, harvesting children, Choose-Your-Own-Adventures, readability, and the future of moral choices in games. With three of us at the table, we made this podcast slightly longer than normal, but extra time is well spent on a very complicated and contentious subject. We encourage you to read the Hocking's and Heir's original articles in the show notes, along with supplementary pieces we discuss in the show. As always, feel free to weigh in with your thoughts in the comments. Some discussion starters: - Have you ever faced a difficult in-game discussion that stemmed from moral concerns? If so, did you translate this into simply mechanical outcomes? Did you approach is role-playing as the protagonist?- If your in-game decisions were permanent, would they be more meaningful? What techniques add add weight to a decision?- To what extent is in-game decision making impacted by real-world experiences? Do you carry your personal set of ethics into a game?
