"I think the message that I wanted to leave people with was “Can you swap anxiety with curiosity?” This is something I've been trying to do for myself: when you're in an anxious situation, can you take a curious approach and say “What is going on? What can I learn from this?”, whether you can postpone the anxiety to when it is more useful to be anxious, is something that I was keen to get out in this piece"That is J Ramanand, the Co-Founder and Upleveler at Choose to Thinq, which enables organisations and individuals become future relevant.Ramanand is a master quizzer, quizmaster and an expert at using the power of curiosity to help others uplevel themselves in a 'shape-shifting' world.So here's a confession. I've always been in awe of quizzes.For one, the sheer thrill of quizzing.Even though I've participated in just a handful of quizzes throughout my life, I still remember the memory of the dopamine hits when I would get an answer right. It must be amazing to get these hits much more often in life!The second reason relates to the skill of quizzing. Now, many of you may know this, but for those who don't: Good quizzes are not reliant on memory. As Ramanand says, they have 50% of the answer hidden in the question itself… and the participant can use the powers of deduction to arrive at the answer.Now, while the ability to deduce an answer with the given clues is one key quizzing skill, the real skill for me is the craft of creating good quiz questions. And it is this craft which has several parallels with storytelling. Both skills use the power of surprise, familiarity and curiosity to deliver an engaging experience to the audience.Ramanand is uniquely placed to shed light on these two related skills: - He is a die-hard quizzer - incidentally he was the youngest winner at BBC's Mastermind India and has appeared as an expert on the show Kaun Banega Crorepati (India's version of Who wants to be a Millionaire) - He's a sought-after quizmaster: for the last couple of decades he's been setting questions on an average of at least one a day. That's thousands of questions! - He's an engaging and thought-provoking writer - He works closely with the leadership at different organisations in helping them navigate the ‘shape-shifting world' as he calls it and stay future relevantI had a ton of fun geeking out on quizzing and storytelling techniques with Ramanand. Finally, make sure you listen to the fabulous, fascinating story about the Indian flute maestro, Pt. Hariprasad Chaurasia. Let's dive in. ****Show notes:J Ramanand on LinkedIn and Twitter Choose to Thinq websitePosts by Ramanand on the CTQ blog: - Three lessons on Managing a remote team an- How Fouls Changed FootballQuora posts by Ramanand: - A favourite question he created, - Favourite personal moments from quizzingA couple of pieces Ramanand wrote  for Mint: The Computer History Museum

CTQ welcomes our first episode on US politics - and our first US-based guest - with Sophia Jordán Wallace, Associate Professor in the Department of Political Science at the University of Washington, and the Director of the Washington Institute for the Study of Inequality and Race. Sophia walks us through the wild world of US politics, with a focus on how race and immigration politics have influenced organizing and voting behaviour over the past few years. Sophia talks about how changing demographics in the US are both creating new opportunities for women and people of colour in politics, and presenting a "demographic threat" to some Americans that, in part, helped to fuel the January 6 insurrection at the US Capitol. And, we reflect on the leading role of women of colour are playing in transforming US politics today.To learn more about her research on the role of race and immigration policy in Trump's America, pick up or order a copy of Sophia's book with Chris Zepeda-Millán, "Walls, Cages, and Family Separation: Race and Immigration Policy in the Trump Era," wherever you buy your books.

CTQ is thrilled to welcome the indominatable Karen Ward - drug policy, overdose response and poverty reduction consultant for the City of Vancouver - to the podcast. The consultant, advocate, poet and artist is 100% badass in this wide-ranging conversation on COVID-19, drug policy, toxic drugs and increasing access to safe drug supply, NIMBYism, "organized fascists," and "fighting for space" - space for art, space to live, space to thrive - in Vancouver's Downtown Eastside. Try to keep up. "It's not the drugs, it's the drug policy." ~ Karen Ward.

Part two of my discussion with Nathan Rinne on Dr. Peter Scaer's piece in the latest CTQ entitled Reckoned Among the Lawless

It's the very special annual Come Thru Queen "Family Stone" episode! We couldn't get together in a large group for our annual rewatch, but the CTQ listeners instead CAME THRU with great questions, commentary and games for us to play. We also dive a bit deeper on the new modern queer Holiday classic "Happiest Season!" Enjoy and we'll be back with a regular episode recapping RHOP, RHOA, RHOC and RHOSLC next week!

CTQ welcomes award-winning Canadian author Jen Sookfong Lee to the pod for a lively, wide-ranging discussion on her diverse body of work, the recent reckonings on race, gender and compensation in publishing (and society), and anti-Asian racism in the pandemic. Jen also shares her approach to social media (and how she uses humour and wit to deliver her message), her take on politics in this intensely political moment, and what the pandemic experience has challenged her to reflect on and reconsider.

Call the Question is back! Maria and Lesli are back at the mics (well, sort of), recording the pod remotely after a COVID-19 pandemic-driven hiatus. We talk about why we pressed "pause" on CTQ, what we've up to for the past five months, and take a look ahead to what's next (including some incredible new guests). In this first episode of the new season, we get caught up on what's been happening in Canadian and BC politics during the pandemic: the WE contract controversy, the federal Conservative leadership contest, elections (in the pandemic) in the air, and more.To our loyal listeners and Patreon supporters: thanks for sticking with us as we figured out how to get this podcast back off the ground in the pandemic, with new technology solutions...and a new producer, Emma Renaerts! Your continuing support means the world to us, and look forward to delivering great new content to you in the months to come.https://www.patreon.com/CalltheQuestion

This week in the third of a series of COVID-19 vodcast specials, our host, Mr. Kim Winter discusses the topic of ‘Operational Excellence '. Due to the uncertainty, leaders across all industries are adjusting strategies and supply chains, rewriting the rules of operating, and sometimes making things up as they go. Operational Excellence can support leaders of business and their employees with these new challenges forced upon us. Even becoming an essential tool for competitive advantage. Joined by Senior Project Director, Mr. Mark Lutton, a regional expert on Operational Excellence to give his insights on how businesses can be better, faster, and cheaper. They cover a range of topics from how Zoom could be managing its risk better to the steps that leaders of business should be thinking about when implementing Operational Excellence. They delve into how our takeaway restaurants have had to adapt to the voice of the customer and translate that into CTQ's. They consider should we be practicing lean principles in difficult operating environments and what is the main factor for businesses to rise out of a crisis situation positively.

Episode 84: The Susan-Kate Heaney Trilogy (83 minutes) Wunderkind Susan-Kate Heaney returns to complete the CTQ trifecta of appearing in the studio, in a live episode, and via Skype. SK fully embodies Ms. Frizzle by teaching the guys all about tooth-forward acting, ideal moisture levels, and the meaning of the word "harlequin." Has Matty finally found a friend to save him from watching a horror movie, or will Alex thwart his plans once more? Hold onto your bodices, it's our steamiest episode yet! And remember: if a man wants a taco, you can't just offer him an enchilada.  QUEUE CONTENDERS: "Like Water For Chocolate" (1992), "Winter of Our Dreams" (1981), "Tootsie" (1982)

Settle in, Queueheads, Alex and Matty have figured out a way to record the podcast while maintaining a safe distance! CTQ navigates the quarantine by taking part in the XKCD Unpopular Positive Opinion Challenge: Name a movie that... (1) you genuinely like, (2) came out in your adult life, and (3) is rated below 50% on Rotten Tomatoes. Featuring surprise special guest appearances galore! 

It's Clearing the Queue...now brought to you by Real Fake Knobs! Izzy Maxwell makes his 13th, 14th, or 15th appearance on CTQ to promote his new business and clear a movie off of his "Netflix Queue." Alex propositions him to have an Algorithm Baby, while Matty cases venue security and tries to figure out who Adam Driver is. In the end, the question is "Tubi, or not Tubi?" #knobsnob QUEUE CONTENDERS: "The Fearless Freaks" (2005), "Logan Lucky" (2017), "Electric Apricot: Quest for Festeroo" (2006)

Dan and Brendan discuss field reports from the CTQ community, Tom Sandoval's appearance in a Bon Jovi music video in 2002, Andy Cohen at the Met Gala, and w eek of great shows. They recap Vanderpump Rules and Real Housewives of Potomac, Beverly Hills, and New York. As with every week, they crown their ‘Freak of the Week’ and the 'One True Queen.’ [ 1:15 - Field reports from Countess and Friends & SUR ] [ 5:08 - Real Housewives of Potomac ] [ 13:36 - Vanderpump Rules ] [ 20:58 - Real Housewives of Beverly Hills ] [ 31:02 - Real Housewives of New York ] [ 51:37 - Freak of the Week & One True Queen ]

Not even Adam Levine and his jet ski penguins can stop Chris Cannavo from making his highly-anticipated CTQ debut. In this Ghibli-esque episode, Chris introduces the guys to Terrestrial Sci-Fi, Hyper-realism, and Godzilla's reproductive system. PLUS: We got worms!  QUEUE CONTENDERS: "Tremors 5: Bloodlines" (2015), "Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story" (2007), "The Jungle Book" (2016)

In the inaugural episode of "Clearing the 'Lu," aspiring children's author Amanda Carney provides a scathing rebuttal to her husband's previous appearance on CTQ (Varun & Mike Ep 51). Then, as Amanda begins her ultimate fighter training to survive the zombie apocalypse, Matty accepts that he'll probably be the first to meet his demise. Will Alex be dubbed the Lord of the Fries? Grab your randomly assigned crossbow, cooking pot lid and binoculars find out! PLUS: we look up "Popkin" on urban dictionary, and the result is super gross.  QUEUE CONTENDERS: "Battle Royale" (2000), "True Romance" (1993), "Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon" (2006)

Question: What would it take for CTQ to dedicate an entire episode to the unsung 2015 Chris Rock film "Top Five?" Answer: A chance to dissect the movie with Alex's dad, Certified Public Accountant Bill Popkin, who just so happens to be Top Five's certified number one fan. Come for the father/son bonding and bar-mitzvah memories, stay for Bill's list of his favorite rappers.

Hoo-Hah! After a long hiatus, the guys discuss their homework assignments. Matty gets harpooned by the second-half of Jaws, does his best to practice the "Sheryl Crow Theory of Pop Culture," and finally finds a bio-pic that delivers, while Alex actively recruits for the Walton Goggins fan club and is too distracted by the "Scent of a Woman" orchestral score to appreciate an Oscar-winning performance. (Hoo-hah!) In the end CTQ agrees: you will be moved by "Brigsby Bear." (hoo-hah!)

Episode 81 - Brendan and Dan are now canon to the Bravo cinematic universe (well they were both already on separate episodes of RHONJ but that's another story). In the news, they're discussing Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Eve on The Talk, and Real Housewives of Dallas casting rumors. They're also recapping Scared Famous, Real Housewives of Atlanta, Orange County, Dallas and New Jersey. As with every week, they crown their ‘Freak of the Week’ and the 'One True Queen.’ [ 0:35 - CTQ on WWHL ] [ 5:26 - RHOBH Trailer ] [ 12:24 - Eve joins The Talk ] [ 17:22 - RHOD casting rumors ] [ 19:13 - Scared Famous ] [ 22:46 - Real Housewives of Atlanta ] [ 33:58 - Real Housewives of Orange County ] [ 45:13 - Real Housewives of Dallas ] [ 49:46 - Real Housewives of New Jersey ] [ 1:08:15 - Freak of the Week & One True Queen ]

Episode 41: Love Songs on the Queue. Gentleman of Leisure Chris Li lends his silky smooth voice to CTQ in what begins as a loving episode. However, much like the Airheads mystery flavor, things take a twist and we end up deep in the bowels of Stephen King's twisted mind, where only Kevin McCallister with a crossbow can save us. PLUS: Give us a 5 star rating on iTunes and earn the chance to win a free CTQ t-shirt! LIST: "Hush" (2016), "The Disappointments Room" (2016), "Stranger By The Lake" (2013)

It's a family affair, as Matt's brother Dan brings his filtered reality to the first post-truth episode of CTQ. The guys try to get to the bottom of the Pizza Hut/Pizza Hat mystery, but then Dan yells "pivot!" and starts reciting digits of pi. Eventually they choose a "critically acclaimed" movie Alex missed because he was busy listening to Mambo No. 5 QUEUE CONTENDERS: "The Blair Witch Project" (1999), "Paradox" (2016), "Creep" (2014)

CTQ's first ever return guest is the legendary creator of Guitar Hero - Izzy Maxwell! While he lobbies for votes ("Vote Izzy Maxwell for anything!"), Alex makes a pitch for the fictitious "Half Metal Jacket" and Matty passionately defends the band Alien Ant Farm. Later we learn whether Alex actually got food poisoning from Taco Bell in middle school, or whether that was just an elaborate ruse to see the R-rated A Time To Kill. PLUS: What do The Exorcist, Fools Rush In, and Airplane have in common? QUEUE CONTENDERS: Nothing. We didn't watch a movie.

Episode 37 - Brendan and Dan are joined by friend to the show, Jimbo, for a look back in the year in pop culture in this week's deep dive with some extra help from regular CTQ contributors, Conor and Pschlarm. They also discuss Leah Remini's presence during JLo and Drake's budding romance, Tina Knowles quitting social media, and the Kardashian/Jenner annual Christmas Eve party. Of course they break down their shows including Real Housewives of Beverly Hills, Vanderpump Rules, and Ladies of London, and they also discuss the new podcast Making Oprah. Lastly, they close out the show looking back on those we lost this year.

CTQ welcomes a true "musician's musician" - Gregory Douglass, who proudly considers Netflix his "back-up plan." They discuss the perks of sharing an account with your sibling, the cross-generational appeal of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, and Gregory's own unique philosophy on how to choose a lock screen image for your smart phone. All that and Harry Potter! QUEUE CONTENDERS: "What Happened, Miss Simone?" (2015), "Honey, We Shrunk Ourselves" (1997), "Salinger" (2013)

CTQ welcomes in Tad "Don't Make Me Part That Red Sea" Moses for the first ever Skype episode of Queue Beginnings! Tad admits he's never seen the Tim Burton classic "Christmas on Halloween," weighs in on which Steve Jobs biopic is the definitive Steve Jobs biopic, and details how his fear of identity theft led him to accidentally steal John Cusack's face. Meanwhile, Matty struggles with the decision to reveal the KFC secret ingredient, while Alex pitches his new show "Some Hitman I Turned Out To Be." QUEUE CONTENDERS: "In Bruges" (2008). "Must Love Dogs" (2005), "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" (1993), "Hector and the Search for Happiness" (2014)

The CTQ guys get to see how the other half lives as they welcome in the talented Heather Christian - who just so happens to be married to episode 20's Dave Polato! Heather explains why she and Tater keep separate profiles, reminisces about puking during "Godzilla," and drops some deep Jodie Foster "Contact" quotes, while Matty tries to figure out how he got implanted with false memories. QUEUE CONTENDERS: "A Room With A View" (1985), "Robin Hood" (1973), "Laura" (1944), "Batman: The Movie" (1966)

CTQ welcomes in singer Myra Flynn for another round of "Queue Beginnings," helping her build a brand new queue from scratch. Myra professes her love of learning, reveals the name for her theoretical future daughter, and teaches the guys the true definition of the word "melancholy." Meanwhile, Alex is on a mission to figure out who her own "Matthew McConaughey" is - and the answer may shock you. PLUS: By popular demand, our favorite TV pilots of all time! QUEUE CONTENDERS: "We Need To Talk About Kevin" (2011), "Basic Instinct" (1992), "The Fundamentals of Caring" (2016)

CTQ kisses the status-quo goodbye with this week's guest, the lovely Meaghan O'Connor Feiner. As Meaghan explains why growing up abroad resulted in permanent pop culture blind spots, Matty learns the difference between "Footloose," "Flashdance," and "Dirty Dancing." It's business as usual, until Meaghan's choice goes horribly wrong, forcing the guys do something they've never done before -- break the cardinal rules of CTQ. QUEUE CONTENDERS: "Fruitvale Station" (2013), "Nick Offerman: American Ham" (2014), "Last Night" (2010), "Gomorrah" (2008)

The CTQ guys bring in their friend cult-movie appreciator Brian Bender. As Bender explains how his movie tastes were invariably shaped by the seedy video store in his hometown in Indiana and educates the guys about the sci-fi franchise Dune with a "spicy" elevator pitch, Matty gets hip to "practical" visual FX, while Alex becomes enlightened to fine wordplay and even finer bass guitar-play. QUEUE CONTENDERS: "Jaco" (2014), "The Sting" (1973), "The Hustler" (1961), "The Resurrection of Jake The Snake" (2015)

The blind can see, the lame can walk, and the queue-less can stream as the CTQ guys bring in their good friend "Steampunk" Brian Harris for another helping of "Queue Beginnings." On this week's episode, the guys discuss how Brian got his confusing yet ubiquitous nickname and why "Deadpool" not only breaks superhero movie conventions, but also our increasingly-suspect algorithms. Plus after 15 episodes Matty and Alex FINALLY agree on what a guilty pleasure is -- and it looks an awful lot like Owen Wilson as an action star. QUEUE CONTENDERS: "Spy Game" (2001), "Mac and Devin Go To High School" (2012), "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" (1993), "Primal Fear" (1996), "Heathers" (1988)

It's a "Blessed Union of Podcast Souls" as the CTQ guys welcome in fellow podcasters, cosplayers and Comic-Con regulars "The Nerd Lys" Chris and Rachel! In this hilarious episode the foursome discuss cosplay vs LARPing, shamefully innocent love for Dog the Bounty Hunter and The O.C., cartoon violence, and how they all celebrated the "the Will-ennium" in Dec 1999. QUEUE CONTENDERS: "2001: A Space Odyssey" (1968), "Galaxy Quest" (1999)

It's the "Film Education Of Clearing The Queue" as cinema-lover and CTQ superfan Oliver Taylor stops by to drop his unique and insightful brand of film-school knowledge. The guys discuss why camera operators are the coolest people on the film set, learn why Tom Cruise makes the perfect empty vessel, and make a oddly-effective analogy using macaroni and cheese with chipotle peppers. ALSO: Oliver forces Alex and Matt to address "the elephant in the room." QUEUE CONTENDERS: "Meek's Cutoff" (2010), "Sixteen Candles" (1984), "The Hustler" (1961)

No queue? No problem! This week on CTQ the guys invite their friend, rom-com expert and Corey Haim-fanclub member Michele Luchese to be the guinea pig as they test run Operation: "Queue Beginnings", a highly-sophisticated and fine-tuned apparatus designed to hack the Netflix algorithms and fashion a brand-new queue from scratch. Queue Contenders: "Pretty Ugly People" (2008), "Confessions of A Dangerous Mind" (2012), "Little Bit Of Heaven" (2011)

The CTQ guys are put to the test when faced with the biggest variety of Queue classics they've ever encountered. They welcome in Bryan Burgan, a card-carrying comic book geek who treats the movie theater experience with church-like reverence but has major holes in his movie-viewing past. Burgan talks about nerd culture finally being "cool," doing the "Pee-Wee Herman Dance" on his parents table as kid, and not quite remembering if he's seen "Half Baked" (which results in an actual CTQ Half Baked popquiz) PLUS: Alex floats out an insidious conspiracy theory about Eddie Murphy's voice-over work on "Shrek." Queue Contenders: “Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid” (1969), “Battle Royale” (2000), “Best in Show”(2000), “In Bruges” (2008), “Fruitvale Station” (2013), “Half-Baked” (1998), “The Warriors” (1979)

Attention spans are tested this week as the CTQ guys welcome their friend "Other Alex." In this episode "Other Alex" turns his nose up at the "goofball comedies" starring Jim Carrey and details his love for 6-second Vines and apocalyptic movies. Grab some ritalin and a cup of room temperature water to wash it down, it's gonna be good one! ALEX'S QUEUE FINALISTS: "Goodbye World" (2013), "Reservoir Dogs" (1992), "Prince Avalanche" (2013)

This week the CTQ guys boldly mount an expedition through the frozen tundra of our friend Dan Riley's queue that would make Werner Herzog blush. As Dan explains his overstuffed queue of nature documentaries and beats the drum for the ecological importance of bees, Alex sings a few bars of the wrong Faith Hill song. In the end, everybody wins except for the good citizens of Staten Island, NY, who are left pondering the question: "Does drool equal guilt?" PLUS: A surprise appearance by Geraldo Rivera!

The tables are turned in this very special "origin story" episode! Co-host Alex gets a cathartic dose of the CTQ elixir and talks living with narcolepsy, explains the difference between "You Me and Dupree" and "Marley and Me" and finally stares down two of his biggest queue offenders. Who will blink first? (spoiler: it's not Alex)

In this episode of CTQ, it's "unfinished business" as the guys resuscitate Izzy's old Netflix queue. Izzy talks about his undying love for The Simpsons and subversive animated TV, why Kung Fu movies make great dinner companions, and recounts how a delightfully random trip to Whole Foods led him to see Django Unchained.

The Maps are designed to help educators meet the expectations of the Common Core State Standards, which call for the standards to be “complemented by a well-developed, content-rich curriculum.” Our draft ELA Maps have received more than three million views since last August. We’ve listened to your advice and have added many new features, including: Nearly 200 new writing, grammar, and research activities Guidance for differentiated instruction Library of seventy digital resources More informational and contemporary texts throughout Map users can now: Rate and comment on each of the seventy-six unit Maps along with thousands of suggested works, activities, and resources Submit lesson plans Get preferred pricing on Maps services and tools that are under development Common Core has been inundated with requests for professional development services, more Maps-based curriculum tools, and more Maps, including math Maps.
