So this is fun! A new show! This is the next one that I'm announcing… The Community Show! It's with Courtney Robertson, who knows more about the WordPress community than almost anyone else I can think of. We're going to be doing this show, just like the other ones (stay tuned, I'll announce them soon too) every 3 months or so. That means that our new podcast hosts won't get burn out, but also we'll have plenty to talk about. So what's this new show about… well… the WordPress community, and all the things that it does. Events, meetups, online sessions, updates and more. Really, this show will encompass almost anything in the WordPress space. It's going to be fun and I'm grateful that Courtney has made some time in her busy schedule to record the show with me. So, whether you're a seasoned WordPress expert or a newcomer eager to dive in, this episode offers a pretty comprehensive look at the ways that you can keep up with the community.

In this episode, Nancy and Jose are joined in studio by the man who is likely the longest running podcaster in the country, the one and only Drew Schlosberg, the host of the "Spotlight on the Community Show" since 2007 and the CEO of Xtra Weekly, a newspaper-centered literacy program. A community leader for so many years in San Diego including with the San Diego Union Tribune, Drew has always been passionate about literacy, including serving as the President of the Greater San Diego Reading Association. We learn that the arc of Drew's life and love for reading bridges sports and newspapers. As an avid sports fan growing up, he wanted to read about sports, sports and more sports! And he found his fill by reading all of the sports columns in Los Angeles, which was the catalyst for a career in journalism, commencing as a sports journalist! Some amazing takeaways from the interview with Drew Schlosberg: - "if you can't read, ballgame over"- We must greatly expand access to books at home, school and libraries - The powerful possession mindset of book when a young person say this is "my book"- The importance of allowing young readers to read what they enjoy - The need for PSAs and billboards everywhere on the importance of reading as we did with the campaign to end smoking- The answers to the Rapid Fire questions! A truly fun interview from a legendary gap minder. Thank you, Drew Schlosberg, for your contributions to the community, literacy, books, and for joining us on The Gap Minders.Enjoy this episode and be sure to subscribe to the show. If you have any questions or want to contact Nancy or Jose, please send an email to podcast@uwsd.org. Thank you for listening.To learn more about the two social impact organizations making The Gap Minders possible, please visit www.TheGapMinders.org.

Max Sutherland, President & CEO of World Trade Center Atlanta, recognized at an early age that global businesses have influence and power to make positive change. Rather than pursuing a diplomatic career as he planned, he rose in global positions at Citicorp, Chase Manhattan, KPMG, and more. In his current role at the World Trade Center in Atlanta, he sees the opportunity to bring the fractured global business community together and offer training to new entrants. His stories are fascinating. Keep an eye on this guy!

Guest episode from the BZE Community radio show. Our thanks to the team for allowing us to share it with you. Also, we're announcing two new shows on the Climactic Collective. thEMPOWER and Sustainable You. Check out all the shows on the network at www.climactic.com.au. CLIMATE CRISIS FRONTLINES Episode 1- BANGLADESH 13th July 2020 Guests: Runa Khan - Founder of "Friendship" floating hospitals in Bagladesh https://friendship.ngo/floods-in-bangladesh-and-friendships-response/ https://friendship.ngo/about-us/leadership/runa-khan-founder-and-executive-director/ Dr Saleemul Huq - Scientist and Director of International Centre for Climate Change and Development https://www.iied.org/climate-covid-19-collaboration-we-need Sound Effects: by Maqubul from Freesound "Be prepared" is the message from Bangladesh. Runa Khan describes the thousand rivers and silt islands in her country. She says saving lives is not enough. Her floating hospitals have expanded into schools in the refugee camps, paralegal help, para-veterinary help and training people to maintain the solar panels that connect them to government services. The secret of a long lasting project like this is treating everyone with dignity. It is thrilling to hear how Runa imbues her volunteers and staff with a deep respect for human rights. She speaks to European donors in the same way, wanting their empathy and understanding in a sustained partnership rather than just a guilty cheque. She says seeing the Rohingya refugee camps nearly broke her but she is undaunted. This is one of our best podcasts and should be a tonic for anyone feeling climate angst or despair. The motto of "Friendship" is "Think big, start small, begin now!". Dr Saleemul Huq spoke to an international audience about "Climate, Covid19 and the collaboration we need." He described how the recent Cyclone Amphan was supercharged by the elevated temperatures in the Bay of Bengal. It caused damage in the Sundarban Forests and over two million people were evacuated to safety with their lifestock. But his pride is in the fact that the death toll was low. Compared to the 140,000 killed in the 1990's, Bangladesh is now a model of early warnings and adaptation. The millions of volunteers who go around with loud speakers in the villages, warning of a climate emergency, now go round wearing face masks and giving a Covidsafe health message. "Be prepared!" Dr Huq says that Covid19 is a rehearsal for the great climate crisis which will affect all of us. He says governments and businesses who refuse to listen to scientists are acting unconscionably. Just as the pandemic crosses all borders so does the climate disruption we cause by our emissions. Listening to these two compassionate and energetic Bangladeshis will remind you of the moral vision of Martin Luther King. When I read that Global Fossil Fuel Subsidies are currently $5.2 Trillion and $29 Billion in Australia according to the IMF, I understand why the climate frontline states demand justice. https://reneweconomy.com.au/global-fossil-fuel-subsidies-reach-5-2-trillion-and-29-billion-in-australia-91592/ As well as sending a cheque in a crisis and reconnecting with the Green bank, we need to understand and empathise with the suffering caused by the emissions our government is subsidising. This podcast might awaken some so please forward it to those who need to hear. See /privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
