#683: Candy now — or a toy later? You slide play money across the table and let your kid choose. That moment kicks off this episode, where Dr. Stephen Day joins us to talk about building a “mini economy” at home.  Dr. Day is the director of the Center for Economic Education at Virginia Commonwealth University. He also holds a PhD in social studies and economics curriculum and instruction. His work looks at how kids form money habits long before they deal with real paychecks, budgets, or credit cards. We break down how a mini economy actually works. Kids have job titles tied to age-appropriate chores. They earn play money. They spend it at a small household store set up on the kitchen table. The store might sell candy, small toys, or privileges like extra screen time. Parents set the prices. Kids decide whether to spend right away or save for something bigger. You hear how this plays out inside Day's own house. A three-year-old takes on the role of “zookeeper,” feeding the cat and picking up stuffed animals. A seven-year-old creates a weekly plan that alternates spending and saving, using patterns she learns at school. A five-year-old chooses to donate part of his earnings instead of spending anything. The system stays the same. The choices vary by kid. The conversation moves through childhood stage by stage. Early years center on routine, structure, and basic trade-offs. Elementary school becomes the key period for practice, when habits and norms take shape. Middle and high school bring longer planning timelines, more independence, and deeper conversations about work, contribution, and goals. We also dig into questions parents ask all the time. Should kids get paid for chores, or should chores come with living in the house? Day explains how families can separate family work, paid jobs, and service work so kids understand why they are doing each task. Clear categories help avoid confusion about motivation and responsibility. Busy schedules come up, too. Sports practices, travel, school events, and late workdays often knock chore systems off track. Day explains how vague expectations create conflict and why job titles and defined duties bring structure even during chaotic weeks. Throughout the episode, the focus stays on practice, not lectures. Kids do not learn money by hearing explanations. They learn by earning, choosing, saving, spending, and living with trade-offs — all inside a system small enough to fit on a kitchen table.

AP correspondent Ben Thomas reports a former Uvalde schools police officer has been acquitted of charges over the response to the Robb Elementary massacre. ((opens with actuality))

Texas Rangers investigators spent a year building a second-by-second animated recreation of the Robb Elementary School shooting, and it was just shown to the jury in the Adrian Gonzales trial. The former Uvalde CISD police officer faces 29 counts of child endangerment for his response to the massacre that killed 19 children and two teachers. According to prosecutors, Gonzales was the first officer on scene — and the animation allegedly shows him standing by his patrol vehicle while 117 gunshots were fired inside the school.The timestamps presented in court are brutal. Gonzales reportedly arrives at 11:31. The shooter enters the school at 11:32:59. The massacre in Room 111 begins at 11:33:45. Gonzales allegedly doesn't enter the building until 11:35:48. That's three minutes and forty seconds that prosecutors say he failed to act while children were being killed.Defense attorney Nico LaHood isn't backing down. He's turned the cross-examination into an indictment of the entire law enforcement response, getting the state's own witness to admit that other officers had line-of-sight on the shooter and didn't engage. Officer Juan Saucedo had a rifle. He allegedly asked permission to shoot. He didn't fire.Meanwhile, the families are living through this nightmare again. Velma Duran was removed from court after an outburst about her sister, teacher Irma Garcia, who was killed. The emotion in that courtroom is overwhelming.Gonzales has pleaded not guilty and faces a maximum of two years if convicted. The jury will decide if failing to act is a crime.#TrueCrimeToday #AdrianGonzales #Uvalde #RobbElementary #TexasTrial #SchoolShootingTrial #PoliceAccountability #UvaldeStrong #TrueCrimeNews #CourtRoomJoin Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Have you ever had that problem where you buy seats "together" (consecutive seat numbers), but it turns out they're actually not "together" (split across different rows rather than adjacent)? So have we! And we've decided to do something about this problem: create a Mandarin Chinese lesson about it. Episode link: https://www.chinesepod.com/1597

On today's Radio Night Live: Fun Friday! Christiani Pitts, star of the Broadway play: Two Strangers (Carry a Cake across New York); & John Nimick, President at Squash Engine, Inc. & Event Producer of Sprott Tournament of Champions presented by Crowd Street ABOUT CHRISTIANI: In Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York), Christiani Pitts plays Robin, a 26-year-old New Yorker struggling to find meaning while stuck in an unfulfilling, monotonous routine. Pitts was drawn to the role of Robin because of the character's relatable experience of depression, which the actress appreciates for not being over-explained in the production. Pitts' Broadway debut in A Bronx Tale, beginning as an ensemble member before taking over the co-starring role of Jane, was followed by the leading role of Ann Darrow in King Kong. She made history as the first woman of color to play Darrow, working to flesh out the character traditionally depicted as a damsel-in-distress archetype. Now, following the pandemic and the birth of her first child, Zora Makena, Pitts is back as one half of the two-hander musical rom-com Two Strangers with co-star, Sam Tutty. Currently, she recurred on Starz's Power Book III: “Raising Kanan” and starred in the Netflix feature Resort To Love. Her other credits include: Dead Ringers, “Blue Bloods,” “The Good Fight,” “Evil,” “Elementary.” Christiani is repped by Buchwald Talent and Authentic Talent & Literary Management. ABOUT TWO STRANGERS (Carry a Cake Across New York) Meet Dougal, an impossibly upbeat Brit who has just landed in New York City for the first time to attend the wedding of the father he's never met. Meet Robin, the sister of the bride and a no-nonsense New Yorker with a lot of errands to do for the bride—including picking up the groom's estranged son from the airport. These two strangers begin their journey together navigating New York City, secrets, and second chances. ABOUT JOHN: Nimick began playing pro squash in the 1980s, when hardball squash was growing in the U.S., though the sport wasn't played in arenas and received relatively little press coverage. John achieved a ranking of No. 2 on the World Professional Squash Tour in 1990-91 and won four “Grand Slam” singles squash titles during his professional career. John also won the Intercollegiate Singles title, U.S. National Singles title and numerous other singles and doubles championships. Nimick is now the president of sports marketing company Squash Engine, the leading promoter of international squash. Nimick's comprehensive, value-driven approach to sports championship and entertainment management quickly established Squash Engine as the leading promoter in international squash and enabled his forerunner company Event Engine to provide similar services to the tennis, golf and classical and popular music markets. His company is known for hosting squash championships in non-traditional venues. Its tentpole event, the Tournament of Champions, is held in New York City's Grand Central Terminal. Now, the “ToC” is the largest squash spectator tournament in the world. ABOUT TOURNAMENT OF CHAMPIONS: The Tournament of Champions can trace its distinguished international squash lineage back to 1930 when it was first staged as the “U.S. Professional.” In the late 70's it became the World Professional Squash Championships and then the Tournament of Champions in 1992. A women's invitational draw was added to the event in 2001 with a full championship draw added in 2002-2003, 2005-2007 and 2012 forward. The tournament is the oldest, annual competition for squash professionals in the world. The list of titleholders is a veritable “who's who” of squash through the years. The tournament has been played in 17 different cities but is now closely identified with its majestic Grand Central Terminal venue where the ToC was first presented in 1995.

Christiani Pitts stops by to chat about her journey from playing a scene stealing cow in a church nativity play to leading Broadway blockbusters. She shares a hilarious story about how a miscommunication led to her performing stand up comedy at a nightclub at age eleven for an event associated with Dave Chappelle, and how her parents supported her dreams while navigating the tricky world of early industry scams. We dive deep into her experience starring in King Kong, discussing the technical insanity of acting opposite a massive puppet and how she manifested doing an action movie on stage. She also opens up about her current role in Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York), exploring how the show handles mental health with subtle physicality, the "simplistically complex" set design, and the joy of balancing life as a Broadway star and a mom to a daughter who thinks she is also in the cast. Christiani Pitts is a history making performer who received critical acclaim playing Anne Darrow in the Broadway production of King Kong. After previously starring as Jane in A Bronx Tale, she played Beverly in the Netflix romantic comedy Resort to Love and starred as Pernessa in Power Book III: Raising Kanan, with additional credits including Elementary, Evil, The Good Fight, Blue Bloods, and Dead Ringers. She is currently starring as Robin in the new Broadway musical Two Strangers (Carry a Cake Across New York).

Send us a textA video looks real, the voice sounds familiar, but something feels off. That gut check matters, and we turn it into a simple habit kids can use every day: pause, check, ask. We break down deepfakes in plain language, show how AI learns to mimic faces and voices, and teach a family-friendly game that trains kids to spot tricks without fear or extra screen time.We start by explaining what deepfakes are and how pattern-learning lets AI copy smiles, speech, and movement. From there, we introduce Real, Trick, or Check—a quick activity any grown-up can run in the car, at home, or in class. Kids learn to look for practical red flags: videos that only exist on social feeds, clips that rush or scare, lips that don't match words, flat robotic audio, super short edits, and sketchy new accounts. The goal isn't to catch every fake with one clue; it's to slow down and verify with a trusted adult before reacting or sharing.Safety is stronger when families protect what AI can learn. We offer clear steps: post sparingly, lock down privacy settings, avoid untrusted sites, and be careful when texting photos or voice notes. We also cover what to do if a fake targets your child: you did nothing wrong, tell a trusted adult, save evidence, and report it. To stop impostors who use cloned voices, we share our favorite tool, a private code word that only you, your kids, and your classroom know. If a message can't provide it, stop and verify through a known channel.By the end, your family has a shared language for staying calm and curious around AI: protect your pictures and your voice, practice the game, and keep the code word handy. If something feels wrong, talk to a trusted adult right away.

SummaryThis discussion focuses on the theme of spiritual maturity as outlined in the book of Hebrews. Benjamin Lee emphasizes the importance of moving beyond the elementary teachings of Christ to achieve a deeper understanding and relationship with God. He warns against the dangers of spiritual slothfulness and encourages believers to press on to maturity, using David's example of humility, dependence, and hope as a model for growth in faith.TakeawaysChristians are called to mature in their faith.Elementary teachings are foundational but not the end goal.Spiritual regression can lead to a loss of faith.Dullness in hearing can hinder spiritual growth.Maturity involves understanding deeper truths about Christ.Hope is essential for perseverance in faith.David exemplifies humility and dependence on God.Spiritual maturity requires a heart of hope.The journey of faith is ongoing and requires diligence.Pressing on to maturity is a responsibility for every Christian.Chapters00:00 Introduction to Maturity in Faith03:15 The Importance of Moving Beyond Basics06:12 The Dangers of Spiritual Slothfulness09:30 The Role of Christ in Our Maturity12:12 David's Example of Spiritual Maturity15:08 Hope and Dependence on God18:27 Conclusion: Pressing On to MaturityNewsletter and Blog: https://benjaminlee.blogAll Episodes: https://icandopodcast.com

Teacher evaluations can vary wildly—sometimes they are regularly scheduled; at other times they happen at the last minute before the school year ends. These appraisals typically involve an administrator observing a classroom lesson, which can feel contrived and stressful, resembling a mere "check-the-box" exercise. Frequently, the focus centers on teacher behaviors rather than examining the impact on student learning outcomes and the actions contributing to those outcomes. In this episode with Dr. Greg Moncada, we delve into the teacher appraisal system and explore how it can be transformed to prioritize student learning, better align with the school's mission, and more effectively support the professional growth of educators.Greg is the Head of Harare International School (HIS) in Zimbabwe and was previously the founding director of the Qatar Academy for Science and Technology (QAST), the Qatar Foundations' new Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics (STEM) school. Prior to his leading role at HIS and QAST, Dr. Moncada started new schools and programs throughout his career, including a progressive middle school based on the “This We Believe' model and district-wide STEM programs in Elementary, Middle, and High School settings.  Dr. Moncada specializes in developing student-centered learning models, progressive learning models, and multiverse organizational structures between schools and organizations. With more than 30 years of experience, Greg has held teaching and leadership positions in International schools in Spain, Austria, Saudi Arabia, and South Africa, as well as in the United States. Greg holds a doctorate in Educational Leadership from the University of Minnesota, an MA in Leadership from Lehigh University, PA, and an MA in Science Education from Louisiana State University.Our guiding question for this show was: “How can teacher appraisal systems be designed to ensure improved student learning?”Some of the topics covered include:Greg's perspective on the term “teacher appraisal system”Separating the code of conduct from teacher appraisalAligning teacher appraisal and professional growth with other structuresDifferentiating for roles other than teacher, such as counselor, instructional coach, and athletic coachSupporting staff members to step out of their comfort zonesAdministrator appraisal and professional growthHead of School appraisal and the role of the school boardGreg's Contact Information: LinkedInThis episode waSupport the show Remember to access our Educators Going Global website for more information and consider joining our Patreon community at patreon/educatorsgoingglobal!Email us with comments or suggestions at educatorsgoingglobal@gmail.com Follow us on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram or YouTube.Listen on your favorite podcast app: connect from our share page.Music: YouTube.

ELROD ELEMENTARY PODCAST CREW/STUDENTS  W/ SUPT. MATT JENSEN TRT: 25:00

It's my last week of teaching for the year, and I've been reflecting on the supplemental books that have been most successful with my elementary and early intermediate students this year. The new year can be a great time to start fresh: with new repertoire, new technical routines, or new creative challenges for our students.As we prepare for the Spring semester and look forward to lessons resuming in January, I want to share nine collections I've been using with my students this year. Some are etudes based on specific technical patterns, others are solo repertoire books. Most of these are available through Piano Safari, though they can be used alongside any method book. For reference, my elementary and early intermediate students are in Piano Safari Levels 1-3 and range from 2nd-7th grade.If you're looking to refresh your teaching materials for January or add some variety to your studio library, I hope you'll find a few gems here that spark your interest.For show notes + a full transcript, click here.Resources Mentioned*Disclosure: some of the links in this episode are affiliate links, which means if you decide to purchase through any of them, I will earn a small commission.
