We were told cursive was outdated. But the science says otherwise. In this episode, I make the research-backed case for why cursive isn't about pretty handwriting—it's about building better brains, stronger readers, and more focused learners. If you homeschool or are questioning the modern school model, this one might change how you think about writing forever.

A Life Scripted in Cursive and GraceCatie Holt's story reads like a favorite chapter book — warm, engaging, and full of purpose. A 2006 Cedarville University alumna, Catie's years on campus gave her more than a degree; they gave her a biblical lens with which to view the world. That foundation became her anchor as she traveled across continents, teaching in China and later in the heart of Chicago's bustling Chinatown.Catie's influence and heart for young learners have had an impact far beyond the classroom. She played a creative role in developing the Cedarville Cursive Google font, a handwriting style that has gained widespread popularity for its charm, readability, and nostalgic beauty. It's now used in everything from educational materials to digital design, becoming a small but meaningful part of how ideas are shared.Today, Catie lives along the peaceful lake shore in southwest Michigan, where her days revolve around faith, family, and a lifelong love for books. With her young children in school, she's turning her energy toward expanding her collection of online lesson plans — offering thoughtful resources shaped by years of hands-on experience.In a recent appearance on the Cedarville Stories podcast, Catie reflected on her time at Cedarville and how it equipped her to engage the world with confidence and conviction. Whether in overseas classrooms, urban neighborhoods, or as a mom, her passion for education and truth has remained steady.Catie Holt's journey is a quiet testament to the power of faith, creativity, and lifelong learning — written in cursive and lived with grace.https://share.transistor.fm/s/fd68d1b6https://youtu.be/pX1a9sSU8Eg

Episode 338 features singer and guitarist Jason Duncan from the band Cult Therapy. They are an indie rock band from Flint, Michigan. Jason grew up in a religious cult, where fear, shame, and guilt dictated every aspect of life. As an adult, Duncan is untangling the lessons of his upbringing, confronting the echoes of control, and carving out his own path to freedom. This messy, cathartic process—the extraordinary highs and profound lows—forms the raw, beating heart of Cult Therapy. It was a very in-depth and candid interview, and I certainly appreciate Jason sharing his experiences. I featured their song ‘Therapy and Drugs,' and if you like it, you can stream it wherever you listen to music. Find them on socials for their upcoming shows. Thanks for listening and supporting local artists.

Susie learned about a shocking situation developing at a French aquarium housing killer whales where animal rights activists caught the trainers, um, handling the whales to alleviate adult desires brewing between the whales. We hear why it's happening, and why it's so upsetting (beyond the obvious). We discuss the situation between 74yo former NFL coach Bill Bellichek and his 24yo girlfriend, why we can't decide who the villain is, and why it's flipping the script of May/December romances. We learn the story of the Great British Bakeoff, why they take casting so seriously, and why the bakers hold disdain for a particular type of cast member. Susie talks about the lawsuit against airlines who charge people for windowless window seats on flights, and why we think it'll shake up the industry. We learn why many adults are ordering kids meals and why Sarah won't do it. And we discuss whether it is important to be able to read an analog clock and write cursive, and why learning handwriting is about far more than it seems.Brain Candy Podcast Presents: Susie & Sarah's SpOoOoOoOoktacular Spectacle, October 30, Oriental Theater, Denver, Colorado: Get your tickets!
