In this episode of the Better Learning Podcast, host Kevin Stoller is joined by co-host Matt Rogers and guest speaker Mason Pashia, Partner (Storytelling) at Getting Smart Collective, for an energetic and thought-provoking conversation centered around the 2003 cult classic School of Rock. Known for his work amplifying the voices of educators and change-makers through storytelling, Mason brings a fresh and imaginative lens to how we think about student engagement, creative expression, and nontraditional learning paths. School of Rock follows the story of Dewey Finn, a struggling musician who finds unexpected purpose—and unleashes unexpected potential—when he poses as a substitute teacher and transforms a class of rule-following prep school kids into a rock band. Together, Matt and Mason explore the film's deeper themes of passion, authenticity, and belonging in education. They reflect on how schools can create space for students to discover their identities, pursue what excites them, and challenge conventional measures of success—all while staying grounded in a mission to serve and empower every learner.   Takeaways: School of Rock highlights how stepping outside traditional curriculum and teaching methods can unlock student potential and engagement in surprising ways. Dewey Finn's enthusiasm for music becomes the bridge that allows students to connect with their interests—and with each other. Educators can harness this same power by leading with passion. The film underscores the importance of allowing students to have a say in their learning journey. When students are given autonomy, they rise to the occasion and take ownership of their growth. Matt and Mason explore how School of Rock challenges rigid definitions of success and encourages schools to recognize diverse forms of excellence—not just academic achievement.     About Mason Pashia: Mason Pashia is a Partner (Storytelling) at Getting Smart Collective. Through publications, blogs, podcasts, town halls, newsletters, and more, he helps drive the perspective and focus of GettingSmart.com. He advocates for data and collective imagination and uses this combination to launch campaigns that amplify voices, organizations, and missions. With over a decade in the storytelling sector (including brand strategy, marketing and communications, and the arts), Mason is always striving to inspire as well as inform.   Learn More About Mason Pashia: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/masonpashia/ Mason's Substack: Featuring Weekly Original Music and Poetry   Learn More About The Getting Smart Podcast: Website: https://www.gettingsmart.com/podcast/ Catching Up: A New Podcast from Getting Smart   The Third Horizon of Learning Flipping the Script: Hollywood's Role in Changing Depictions of Learning Environments         About Matt Rogers: Matt Rogers is a dynamic professional deeply committed to advancing the education industry through innovative strategies and impactful initiatives.

Leading charity Dogs Trust says too many renters in Ireland are being forced to make an impossible choice between losing their dog or losing their home because of a lack of dog friendly rentals. To tackle the issue, they've launched a petition to urge the government to change the law and stop allowing blanket bans on pets in tenancy agreements. The number of people contacting Dogs Trust needing to give up their dog because their move to a new home won't allow their four-legged family member has increased by 112% in the last five years. To discuss this further, Alan Morrissey was joined by Communications Manager, Dogs Trust Ireland Phone, Paulina Padlo and Stiofán McGabhann from Clare Animal Welfare.

Podcast 282 – 25 Years After the Tornado and the Legacy of Lemonade Days – Kathy Florence and Hope Follmer   After a tornado ripped through Dunwoody in 1998, neighbors came together to replant, rebuild, and reconnect. What started as a tree-planting campaign grew into something lasting—Lemonade Days, the city's biggest celebration of resilience and community. Now in its 25th year, the festival continues to evolve while honoring its roots. Hope Follmer, who directs the festival for the Dunwoody Preservation Trust, and Kathy Florence, Communications Manager for the City and a former Honorary Miss Lemonade Days, have helped shape this milestone year. From carnival rides and food trucks to new features like chalk art, legacy lanyards, and local bands performing at the new Band Shell, 2025 feels like a perfect blend of nostalgia and new energy. While I won't be emceeing Dunwoody Idol this year, the heartbeat of the festival is stronger than ever. Whether you've lived here for decades or you're new to town, this is the week that reminds you of that small town feel we love.
