Send Wilk a text with your feedback!Raising Informed Citizens: The Power of Civic Education and EngagementToday, we're tackling yet another topic that couldn't be more relevant—civic education and the role we all play in shaping the next generation of informed citizens. Politics today is often framed as a battlefield, where division and outrage seem to dominate the conversation. But what if we approached it differently? What if we saw civic engagement not as a fight, but as a shared responsibility—one that starts at home?My guest today is Lindsey Cormack, an associate professor of Political Science and Director of the Diplomacy Lab at Stevens Institute of Technology. She's the author of How to Raise a Citizen (And Why It's Up to You to Do It), a book that explores the vital role parents play in helping their children understand our government, engage in politics constructively, and become active participants in democracy. Lindsey's work also includes maintaining DC Inbox, a digital archive of congressional e-newsletters, giving her unique insight into how politics is communicated to the public.In this conversation, we'll discuss why civic education has been deprioritized, how media algorithms shape our perceptions, and why understanding different political perspectives is crucial for a healthy democracy. Most importantly, we'll explore how parents and communities can work together to create a more informed and engaged electorate for the future.TakeawaysCivic education is essential for youth to understand their role in democracy.Parents play a crucial role in teaching their children about politics.The current education system often deprioritizes civics education.Political engagement should be framed positively, not negatively.Toxic polarization hinders constructive political discourse.Media algorithms often reinforce divisive narratives.Understanding both sides of the political spectrum is vital for informed citizenship.Civic engagement is a shared responsibility among parents and communities.Encouraging children to participate in politics can lead to a more informed electorate.The American political system, despite its flaws, is worth understanding and preserving.Learn more about and What have you done today to make your life a better life? What have you done today to make the world a better place? The world is a better place if we are better people. That begins with each of us as individuals. Be kind to one another.

Academics from everywhere experiment, collaborate, and even interpret our stories of "This one time at Burning Man."In this episode, Stuart talks with people from Burning Nerds, an annual gathering of academics in Black Rock City. They keep it light, though; not too many unnecessarily fancy words. Dr Jukka-Pekka Heikkilä shares about the Open Strategy management technique used by Burning Man Project that gives more power to the people. Bryan Yazell and Patricia Wolf of University of Southern Denmark report on using Flash Fiction in BRC to develop a new subgenre of sci-fi called climate fiction (‘cli-fi'), stories that are less dystopian, even less utopian, more protopian (fancy word) about society that improves over time, rather than transcending all it's problems or descending into dysfunction.Professor Matt Zook of University of Kentucky extols the unique aspects of Black Rock City, from materiality to temporality, to being a place apart. He and Stuart explore the interplay between digital and physical spaces, and what about community actually makes it good.Then Jukka-Pekka Heikkilä returns to reveal how the Burning Stories project, now in its 6th year of tracking tales, is now a cultural repository, and is training a gifted AI on how Burners be Burning.jukkapekka.comsdu.dk/en/persons/yazellsdu.dk/en/persons/pawogeography.as.uky.edu/users/zookburningman.org/programs/philosophical-center/academicsregionals.burningman.org/european-leadership-summitburning-stories.comkk.org/thetechnium/protopiasdu.dk/en/paca-at-burning-man-festival-2024 LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG

Guest: Andrew Zimmern is a chef, hunter, angler, writer, Emmy-winning and four-time James Beard Award-winning TV personality and social justice advocate. As the creator and host of the Bizarre Foods franchise, Andrew Zimmern's Driven by Food, MSNBC's What's Eating America, Magnolia Network's Emmy-nominated Family Dinner, and the Emmy-winning The Zimmern List, he has devoted his life to exploring and promoting cultural acceptance, tolerance and understanding through food. Lately, he has been promoting the importance of wild food through his show Andrew Zimmern's Wild Game Kitchen on the Outdoor Channel. Instagram YouTube Spilled Milk Field to Fire Show Takeaways: Andrew Zimmern emphasizes the importance of cultural acceptance through food. Hunting and fishing provide valuable life lessons and experiences. The connection to nature is increasingly important in modern society. Experiences in the outdoors can be more valuable than the catch itself. Cultural dissonance can arise from differing perspectives on hunting and food. Every part of the animal should be utilized in cooking and culture. Outdoor experiences foster appreciation for nature's beauty and lessons. The thrill of the hunt is often about the experience, not just the outcome. Modern society's convenience-driven culture can lead to a disconnection from nature. Personal stories from the outdoors create lasting memories. The odds of encountering the same squirrel multiple times are incredibly low.

Thousands and thousands of people volunteer each year at Black Rock City, for days, weeks, or months. Add to that the volunteers at the many Regional events around the world and it's more than can be counted on fingers and toes.Why do we volunteer?Is it because we feel we received a gift and we want to pay it back or pay it forward?Is it a meditation of hard work (in a hard place to work) to add dimension to our experience?Is it the chance to be something different, for a pixel pusher to build something with bare hands, an engineer to cook for artists, a project manager to be a… manager of a different kind of project?Yes.We interviewed a few longtime citizens of BRC about why they volunteer with the Greeters, with DPW, and the Man Base. Here are some stories from Topless Deb, Tamsin, Ruin, Terra, and a guy named Fuckyeah.https://burningman.org/event/participate/volunteering/teams LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG

Burning Man doesn't make itself. The people who share their time and treasure, they create this weird wonder. Each of these people have stories about how Burning Man influenced their lives and how their lives influenced Burning Man. The Flaming Tuba Guy is one of these people. His name is David Silverman aka Tubatron. Andie Grace talked with him about how his animation career started, how his musical career started, how the Mansonian Institute started, how his career with The Simpsons started, and how that influenced his involvement with Burning Man and vice versa. He also volunteers at BRC with the DPW at the Man Pavilion. They recorded this at Burning Man and you can hear in their voices the phonic patina of the playa. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Silverman_(animator)https://x.com/tubatronDavid shares more of his story in Episode 27 from 2020: https://burningman.org/podcast/holiday-special-santacon-from-home LIVE.BURNINGMAN.ORG
