Derek Resch, AKA Mr. Christmas, is the Supervisor of Public Service Operations. With a title like that, you know Derek has a wide range of responsibilities. His team prepares the holiday light displays, which is a year-long undertaking. It starts with cleaning, testing, and repairing, and peaks with the official lighting. It is a coordinated operation to have the tree at City Hall light up at the same time as all the median displays. Derek's role spans beyond festive lighting. His team also tackles graffiti removal, encampment clean ups, and special events. And it doesn't stop there as Derek also leads different training sessions within his department and organization-wide.This podcast is recorded in Treaty One Territory, the home and traditional lands of the Anishinaabe, Ininew, and Dakota peoples, and in the National Homeland of the Red River Métis.

On this episode of Mind the Gap, Jon Hutchinson and Emma Turner are joined by Leora Cruddas, CEO of the Confederation of School Trusts. Leora shares her journey from teaching in apartheid-era South Africa to becoming a leading voice in educational policy and academy trust leadership. Together, they explore the evolution of academy trusts, the importance of stable leadership, and the challenges of teacher recruitment and retention. Leora highlights the role of trusts as civic anchors, emphasizing their capacity to foster collaboration and serve as pillars of community well-being. She says, "The point at which we start making decisions on behalf of our children from the vested interests of adults is the point that our education system will start to fail." Reflecting on her role, Leora underscores the need for educational leaders to balance stability with innovation, as well as the need for trust leaders to tell adopt a narrative around trusts that focuses on the moral purpose of education. The discussion concludes with a compelling vision for the future of education: building systems that prioritize public trust, equity, and human flourishing.

An internet search of the phrase "this is what democracy looks like" returns thousands of images of people assembled in public for the purpose of collective action. But is group collaboration truly the defining feature of effective democracy? In Civic Solitude: Why Democracy Needs Distance (Oxford UP, 2024), Robert B. Talisse suggests that while group action is essential to democracy, action without reflection can present insidious challenges, as individuals' perspectives can be distorted by group dynamics. The culprit is a cognitive dynamic called belief polarization. As we interact with our political allies, we are exposed to forces that render us more radical in our beliefs and increasingly hostile to those who do not share them. What's more, the social environments we inhabit in our day-to-day lives are sorted along partisan lines. We are surrounded by triggers of political extremity and animosity. Thus, our ordinary activities encourage the attitude that democracy is possible only when everyone agrees--a profoundly antidemocratic stance. Drawing on extensive research about polarization and partisanship, Talisse argues that certain core democratic capacities can be cultivated only at a distance from the political fray. If we are to meet the responsibilities of democratic citizenship, we must occasionally step away from our allies and opponents alike. We can perform this self-work only in secluded settings where we can engage in civic reflection that is not prepackaged in the idiom of our political divides, allowing us to contemplate political circumstances that are not our own.

To break down this concept and share their experiences, she brings Tamieka Atkins, Executive Director of ProGeorgia, Brad Christian-Sallis, Director of Power Building at the Nebraska Table and James Hayes, Co-Director of Ohio Voice to the front of the class.

When Europe produced hot hatches in the 80s it was cars like the Renault 5 Turbo and the Ford Fiesta XR2 – great cars that took the regular hatchback and added more power and better brakes. Over in Japan Honda took a different tack. They crafted a new, very low drag shape for the existing Civic. They also removed a lot of weight. Together with a range of powerful yet efficient range of engines they created a car with great handling, acceleration, and fuel economy that had more in common with the MG Midget than the MG Metro. Some car journalists heralded it as the future of compact sports cars. So, was the Honda CR-X God's gift to small hatchbacks or did it have its flaws, and what the heck happened with the third generation car?

TOPIC: COMMUNITY MATTERS: WHAT IS CIVIC ENGAGEMENT, AND WHY IS IT IMPORTANT? w/ Desiree Smith Being part of a healthy community helps us feel connected and part of something larger than ourselves.

Hey, Family Brand! It's Melissa here, and today, I have a very special guest on the podcast—Brittany Richman of The American Moms. Brittany's story is inspiring, from working on President Bush's speechwriting team to founding The American Moms blog with her twin sister. She's here to share her insights on teaching our kids about civics, showing up in our communities, and the power we each have to create positive change. If you've ever wondered how to get your family more involved in civic life or felt unsure about where to start, this episode is packed with ideas to help you make a difference, right where you are! Brittany talks about her journey into politics and public service, starting with her job in the White House. Her passion for civic engagement is something she and her sister carry forward today through The American Moms, where they help families raise civically aware kids. Brittany shares how simple activities like watching the news as a family or attending local meetings can create a lasting impact. She believes these small, everyday actions build a foundation of awareness and involvement, showing kids that they, too, have a voice. One of the biggest takeaways Brittany shares is the importance of teaching kids to understand and appreciate differing viewpoints. In today's world, disagreement often feels like division, but Brittany emphasizes that “disagreement and hatred are not the same thing.” She encourages families to foster open conversations, teaching kids to approach others with respect, even when opinions differ. This lesson, Brittany says, helps raise citizens who are engaged, empathetic, and empowered to make a difference. Brittany also talks about the importance of getting involved at the local level. From advocating for better sidewalks to improving school grading systems, she shares real-life examples of how showing up can lead to meaningful change. This isn't about grand gestures—it's about addressing what matters in your own backyard. Brittany reminds us that “sometimes change is as simple as gathering a group of moms, writing letters, or attending a school board meeting.” If you're interested in finding unbiased news or want to know where to start with civic education, Brittany has some fantastic advice. She recommends local news, podcasts like Civics 101, and educational websites that help both kids and parents learn about government and civics without the bias we often see today. By seeking a variety of sources, we can foster an open-minded approach to news and help our kids build a well-rounded understanding of the world.   LINKS: All Links Family Brand!  stan.store/familybrand Links For This Episode: https://www.instagram.com/theamericanmoms   Episode Minute By Minute: 0:00 – Welcome Brittany Richman of The American Moms 2:00 – How Brittany's Political Journey Began 5:00 – Why Civics Matters for Families 10:00 – Involving Kids in Local Issues 15:00 – The Importance of Respecting Different Views 20:00 – Getting Started with Civic Education at Home 25:00 – Raising Good Citizens Over Partisan Leanings 30:00 – Finding Unbiased News Sources and Civic Resources

In the face of rising threats to democratic norms and growing mistrust in electoral institutions, it is up to the citizens to uphold the integrity of the democratic process, regardless of partisan allegiances or personal preferences. All Americans should be vigilant against the corrosive influence of election denialism and political violence that is a growing trend in our democracy. In an era of heightened polarization, it is time to recognize that civic unity and faith in democratic institutions stand as testaments to the enduring values that have sustained the republic. Former Governor Gary Herbert joins the show to share his thoughts.
