Why do the most profound learning experiences often feel like getting lost in a good game?In this episode, Brian sits down with Christopher Icks, a philosopher, applied linguist, and experiential learning designer, to explore why "play" isn't just for kids—it's a vital engine for deep, transformative learning. From his work at the University of Oregon's CASTLES to his stewardship of Eugene's eclectic Resonance Building, Christopher reveals how we can design spaces and experiences that foster genuine connection, wayfinding, and what he calls "vital surplus."They dive into the tension between rigid institutional metrics and the messy, beautiful reality of how we actually learn. Get ready to question the classroom circle, embrace a little vertigo, and discover why a "Bring Your Own Puppet Party" might just be the future of professional development.

Aziza's book is experimental and ambitious, and as such gives this week's episode delves into craft choices and process and more. Aziza shares her family history and how her grandmother started to show up in her dreams—and how this memoir took root and ultimately became the gift it is—timely, urgent, and beautiful.

Fourteen years ago, nearly 15,000 Americans were studying abroad in China – but now the number is less than 2,000. Fewer economic opportunities for Americans in China and changing U.S. perceptions of China are partially to blame for this decline, but the need for China expertise, particularly to craft effective foreign policy, is growing as China continues to rise. However, the U.S. government has shuttered or slowed some of the paths people used to take to study China, such as the Fulbright and Peace Corp program. Why does the United States need China expertise and what does its loss mean for U.S. foreign policy?  Rory Truex joined us in December 2025 to discuss the high barriers to studying China and the consequences a lack of China expertise could have for the future of U.S. foreign policy.  Watch the video and learn more about the speaker here

Robert Bauer joins us to unpack the intriguing topic of predictions within the PR industry—how they are formulated, their inherent risks, and their potential impact on reputation management. He emphasizes the need for balance between cautious foresight and bold, sometimes controversial declarations about the future and shares his insights into the process of crafting meaningful predictions that resonate both with clients and broader audiences.Our conversation also touches on the intricacies of risk management, the responsibility of experts in shaping future narratives, and the psychology behind authoritative predictions.Key Takeaways Predictions in public relations are tools for building credibility and positioning organizations as thought leaders within their industries. Experts must strike a balance between making predictions that are too obvious and those that are excessively improbable. Trust and credibility are crucial; audiences are more receptive to predictions from individuals they find trustworthy and knowledgeable. Effective predictions often require a blend of boldness and modesty, acknowledging the inherent uncertainties of the future. PR professionals play a critical role in not just making predictions but also managing the risks associated with them. About the Guest Robert Bauer is Managing Partner of accelent communications in Vienna, Austria, a firm he cofounded in 2011 (then as “asoluto public relations”) together with two business partners. Today, the agency is one of Austria's leading communications counselors, especially (but not exclusively) in the healthcare sector. Robert has a university degree in communications and has been working as a PR consultant since 1995. Among his main achievements were multinational PR campaigns for digital payments companies as lead agency and huge PR campaigns for the mandatory Austrian social security system.

Subscribe now for the full episode! Derek and Danny are joined by historian Alex Thurston to talk about the rise and decline of area studies in the United States. They discuss how regional expertise was once central to the management of American power; why policymakers increasingly ignored that knowledge when it existed; how programs like Fulbright, Title VI, and the Wilson Center fit into a postwar arrangement between the state and the academy; DOGE; the retreat of private foundations; the turn toward technocracy and quantitative approaches; and what the collapse of area studies says about the end of Progressive Era faith in expertise.

Betty Boyd Caroli's biography of Mary Kingsbury Simkhovitch is the first full-length work on a seminal figure in the settlement house movement, which spearheaded efforts to improve the life of immigrants and to counter urban squalor in cities around America in the early 19th century. Greenwich House, the community center Simkhovitch founded in 1902 in Greenwich Village, then a destination point for new immigrants to New York, quickly gained a reputation equal to that of Jane Addams's Hull House in Chicago, providing services in health, recreation, education, and the arts (which Greenwich House continues to do to this day). Simkhovitch became a tireless advocate of public housing and has been called by some "the mother of public housing." She played a central role in designing and administering the first public housing projects in America during the New Deal, in which she was an integral figure. The National Housing Conference, which she founded in 1931, continues to operate in our current "housing crisis" as among the most prominent advocates for safe, affordable housing. She co-wrote the National House Act of 1937, the first piece of legislation to establish the federal government's responsibility to help provide low-income families with housing. A Slumless America: Mary K. Simkhovitch and the Dream of Affordable Housing (Oxford University Press, 2026) by Caroli, best-known for her work on presidential First Ladies, which has gone through multiple editions, will become the standard account of a truly remarkable life. Born in New England and educated in Boston and at the University of Berlin, Simkhovitch married a Russian intellectual seven years her junior who spoke no English and had no job prospects. Raising a family while working for her rapidly expanding set of causes, Simkhovitch was portrayed in a DC Comics series (also featuring Diana Prince) in the early 1940s as a "Wonder Woman of History" for her seeming ability to do it all: take on the full spectrum of urban ills while also raising and supporting her family. Her husband eventually joined the Columbia faculty and became a noted art collector, advising collectors such as J. P. Morgan, while she exposed the squalor of Downtown slums. The stress of trying to do it all took a heavy toll on Simkhovitch, but her lifelong, passionate advocacy of and contributions to housing reform continued unabated and remains both inspiring and relevant. Betty Boyd Caroli is a graduate of Oberlin College and holds an MA in Mass Communication from Annenberg School of University of Pennsylvania, as well as a Ph.D. in American Civilization from New York University. She studied at the Università Per Stranieri in Perugia, Italy, and the Salzburg Seminar in Austria. A Fulbright in Italy led her to teach at the British College in Palermo, the English School in Rome, and two branches of City University of New York (Queens College and Kingsborough Community College).

Greenwich House, the community center Simkhovitch founded in 1902 in Greenwich Village, then a destination point for new immigrants to New York, quickly gained a reputation equal to that of Jane Addams's Hull House in Chicago, providing services in health, recreation, education, and the arts (which Greenwich House continues to do to this day). Simkhovitch became a tireless advocate of public housing and has been called by some "the mother of public housing." She played a central role in designing and administering the first public housing projects in America during the New Deal, in which she was an integral figure. The National Housing Conference, which she founded in 1931, continues to operate in our current "housing crisis" as among the most prominent advocates for safe, affordable housing. She co-wrote the National House Act of 1937, the first piece of legislation to establish the federal government's responsibility to help provide low-income families with housing. A Slumless America: Mary K. Simkhovitch and the Dream of Affordable Housing (Oxford University Press, 2026) by Caroli, best-known for her work on presidential First Ladies, which has gone through multiple editions, will become the standard account of a truly remarkable life. Born in New England and educated in Boston and at the University of Berlin, Simkhovitch married a Russian intellectual seven years her junior who spoke no English and had no job prospects. Raising a family while working for her rapidly expanding set of causes, Simkhovitch was portrayed in a DC Comics series (also featuring Diana Prince) in the early 1940s as a "Wonder Woman of History" for her seeming ability to do it all: take on the full spectrum of urban ills while also raising and supporting her family. Her husband eventually joined the Columbia faculty and became a noted art collector, advising collectors such as J. P. Morgan, while she exposed the squalor of Downtown slums. The stress of trying to do it all took a heavy toll on Simkhovitch, but her lifelong, passionate advocacy of and contributions to housing reform continued unabated and remains both inspiring and relevant. Betty Boyd Caroli is a graduate of Oberlin College and holds an MA in Mass Communication from Annenberg School of University of Pennsylvania, as well as a Ph.D. in American Civilization from New York University. She studied at the Università Per Stranieri in Perugia, Italy, and the Salzburg Seminar in Austria. A Fulbright in Italy led her to teach at the British College in Palermo, the English School in Rome, and two branches of City University of New York (Queens College and Kingsborough Community College).

Send us a textGrants don't fund ideas—they fund clear stories that solve real problems. We sit down with Dr. Natasha Goldman, an art historian turned grant strategist, to map out a practical path from fuzzy concepts to fundable proposals. Natasha shares a simple five-part framework—what, why, how, who, and how much—that helps teams decode dense RFPs, align their plans, and write with confidence under pressure.The funding terrain has shifted. Foundations are swamped and more selective, which makes warm outreach and relationship building essential. On the federal side, opportunities are alive and evolving, with more space for industry participation alongside nonprofits and higher ed. Programs tied to AI, workforce, and economic development are gaining traction, while long-standing programs at NSF and NEH continue with updated priorities. Natasha shows how to focus on fit, guard your integrity, and only chase opportunities that match your mission and values.Partnerships take center stage. Rather than competing head-to-head, local players can combine efforts, add wraparound services like child care and transportation, and present a stronger, scalable model. We break down how to set roles by team strengths, avoid timeline compression, and use low-stakes practice to master iteration before tackling high-stakes grants. Natasha's $23M Good Jobs Challenge win for Boston illustrates what this looks like at scale—multi-sector coalitions, measurable outcomes, and childcare placements that exceeded targets.If you're ready to craft proposals that read clean, demonstrate broader impact, and stand up to tough review, this conversation offers the steps. Subscribe for more candid strategy, share with a colleague who's chasing funding this year, and leave a review with your biggest grant challenge—we'll tackle it in a future episode.Guest BioNatasha Goldman, PhD, is President of WISSEN, Inc. and Visiting Researcher at Boston University.

In this special episode, created by one of our student podcast fellows, NYU student Rachel Fang interviews Dr. Matthew Pellegrino, a composer, music educator, and professor at the NYU Steinhardt School of Culture, Education, and Human Development. Korean culture is everywhere, and with the recent success of Netflix's K-Pop Demon Hunters, K-pop's importance in particular has taken on new heights. Rachel speaks with Dr. Pellegrino about his musical upbringing, how his Korean identity has shaped the way he hears and thinks about music, and how this all influences his teaching as an NYU professor.Dr. Matthew Jihoon Pellegrino is an award-winning composer, Fulbright researcher, and music educator. He has enjoyed an eclectic musical upbringing; one which combines Western classical, traditional Korean music, and a brief stint in a metal band. Uncompromising in his work, Pellegrino seeks to create music that engages equally with casual audiences as well as the most serious of listeners. In his research and his music he most enjoys bringing Korean music into the classroom and concert hall by exploring Korean instruments and folk melodies, and analyzing trends in recent K-pop songs.For a full transcript of this episode, please email career.communications@nyu.edu.

IDEAS takes a journey to Afghanistan with members of the Afghan diaspora, and asks how the idea of home is encapsulated in music and how conflict has played a role in reshaping Afghan music.*This is the final episode in a five-part series called The Idea of Home exploring the multiple and contested meanings of home.

Dr. Jennifer Lee Wilson was a beloved USC professor, a Fulbright scholar, and a passionate advocate for children's literacy. In 2011, after turning to online dating in hopes of finding love, she met a man who initially seemed charming but soon showed troubling signs of control and obsession.
