Here's one of the classic Unlocked episodes with a very special guest… and apparently a new host. Chloe Chrisley is back in the studio and she makes it very clear that this might actually be her podcast now.Savannah and Chloe talk about what it's really like being 13 today, the mean girl moments, middle school drama, navigating identity, and learning how to stand up for yourself when kids cross the line. Chloe opens up about growing up fast, what it felt like when their parents were gone, how she handled kids making fun of her at school, and why she learned not to get her hopes up too quickly when she heard Mom and Dad were coming home.They also get into adoption, hair, sibling rankings (yes, Savannah asked), dark humor, sourdough overload, and the reality of going from sister to full-time guardian and back again.It's funny. It's unfiltered. It's a little chaotic. But underneath it all, it's a conversation about resilience, growing up in the public eye, and the kind of love that doesn't change even when life does.Thank you to our sponsors for supporting our show!- GoodGirlRX: Visit https://www.goodgirlrx.com and use code UNLOCKED15 to get 15% OFF at checkout!LET'S BE SOCIAL:Follow Savannah Chrisley:Insta: (https://www.instagram.com/SavannahChrisley)TikTok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@SavannahChrisley)X: (https://www.x.com/_itssavannah_)Follow The Unlocked Podcast:Insta: (https://www.instagram.com/UnlockedWithSavannah)TikTok: (https://www.tiktok.com/@UnlockedWithSav)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What happens when screens stop being something we watch…and become a place we live? Today, The Atlantic writer Megan Garber unpacks the strange new social reality she explores in Screen People: How We Entertained Ourselves into a State of Emergency—where everyone's performing, politics feels like plot, and “main character energy” starts to warp how we treat real human beings. Then we connect it to the next generation, with Technology's Child: Digital Media's Role in the Ages and Stages of Growing Up by Katie Davis, a guide to how kids experience tech differently at each developmental stage—and what “good enough” digital parenting actually looks like.

Sometimes the thing that almost ended your life becomes the chapter that defines it. By the time Devin Fish was 18, he had moved 16 times, attended seven different schools, and survived a childhood shaped by poverty, bullying, and his parents' struggles with addiction. He thought joining the Army would be the start of something better. Then in July 2017, a Red Cross message forced him to fly home to make the impossible decision of whether to keep his mother on life support. She passed away just days before his birthday. What followed was a slow, quiet spiral into self-hatred, isolation, and online blackmail that brought Devin to the edge of taking his own life. This conversation walks through the moment he self-admitted to the hospital, the two pamphlets he found there that changed everything, and the single question that became the foundation of his recovery. Devin shares how he learned to use one career goal to climb out of suicidal thinking, why writing Answering the Hard Questions in Kuwait forced him to revisit every dark moment on purpose, and how faith eventually rebuilt the parts of him that survival could not. Through grief, generational trauma, silence, and self-doubt, Devin's story is a reminder that the worst chapter of your life does not have to be the end of your book. Guest Bio Devin Fish is a U.S. Army veteran, debut author, and the youngest of two who grew up in Rockford, Illinois. His childhood was marked by instability, bullying, food stamps, and his parents' struggles with drug and alcohol addiction. By 18, he had moved 16 times and attended seven different schools. In 2017, while stationed at Fort Hood, Devin received a Red Cross message telling him his mother was dying. She passed away on July 9th, just days before his birthday. In the years that followed, unresolved grief, financial collapse, and a series of online blackmail scams pushed Devin to the edge, ultimately leading him to self-admit to the hospital with suicidal ideations. Devin served nearly ten years in the Army as a Cavalry Scout and Career Counselor, and in 2021 was awarded the 1st Cavalry Division Retention NCO of the Year. While deployed to Kuwait, he wrote his debut book, Answering the Hard Questions, turning his story into a roadmap for anyone still trying to find their way out. You'll hear About How Devin grew up moving 16 times in 18 years across Rockford, Illinois The day he came home from school and found his apartment surrounded by police Why he stayed silent about his trauma for most of his life Losing his mother and being the one to make the life support decision How online blackmail and isolation brought him to the edge of suicide The two pamphlets in the hospital that helped him rewire how he thought about depression The single question that became the foundation of his recovery How writing his book in Kuwait helped him heal what he had buried for years Why faith became the cornerstone of who he is today Chapters 00:00 Welcome and Episode Introduction 01:15 Meet Devin Fish 02:00 Growing Up in Rockford and 16 Moves in 18 Years 04:30 The Day His Father Was Hospitalized 08:00 Why He Suppressed Everything for Years 10:00 Losing His Mother and the Life Support Decision 13:00 The Blackmail Spiral and Suicidal Thinking 17:00 Thirty Seconds of Courage to Ask for Help 18:00 The Two Pamphlets That Changed His Life 20:00 Using a Single Goal to Climb Out of the Darkness 27:00 Reframing Trauma as a Chapter, Not the Whole Book 28:30 Writing Answering the Hard Questions in Kuwait 33:00 Coming Back to Faith 36:00 Devin's Message for Anyone Still Searching 38:00 Final Reflections and Key Takeaways Chuck's Challenge This week, ask yourself one hard question. Not a comfortable one. Not the one you already know the answer to. The one you have been avoiding because you are afraid of what it might say back. Maybe it is, "Why am I really staying in this?" Maybe it is, "What am I numbing right now?" Maybe it is the same one Devin asked himself: "Do I want to live, or am I just surviving?" Because as Devin shared, healing did not start when life got easier. It started the moment he stopped lying to himself in silence and answered honestly. Whatever your hard question is this week, do not run from it. Let it be the end of a chapter, not the end of the book.

Ever wondered what it takes to coach stars like Chris Rock and Penelope Cruz? Join us for a conversation with Michelle Danner, the legendary acting coach and director, as she shares her journey from a French castle to the heights of Hollywood.

Fluent Fiction - Hungarian: Courage in the Corridors: Zoltán's Stand Against Cheating Find the full episode transcript, vocabulary words, and more:fluentfiction.com/hu/episode/2026-06-23-07-38-19-hu Story Transcript:Hu: Az iskola zsongott, mint egy méhkas.En: The school was buzzing like a beehive.Hu: Budapest Középiskolájában már minden diák tudta, hamarosan elérkeznek a záróvizsgák.En: At Budapest High School, every student already knew that the final exams would soon arrive.Hu: A napok hosszabbodtak, és a levegőben érezhető volt a nyár közeledte.En: The days were getting longer, and the approach of summer could be felt in the air.Hu: Zoltán, aki mindig is szorgalmas diák hírében állt, mélyen elmerült a könyveiben.En: Zoltán, who always had a reputation as a diligent student, was deeply engrossed in his books.Hu: A többi diák azonban más terveket szövögetett.En: However, the other students were weaving different plans.Hu: Zoltán már régóta érezte, hogy valami nincs rendben.En: Zoltán had long felt that something was not right.Hu: Mindig figyelte társait, és most különösen nyugtalanította valami.En: He always observed his peers, and now something particularly unsettled him.Hu: Egy nap az ebédszünetben Gábor, az osztály egyik népszerű diákja, titokzatosan közelebb hajolt hozzá.En: One day during lunch break, Gábor, one of the popular students in the class, leaned in closer to him mysteriously.Hu: - Zoltán, szeretnék neked valamit mondani - kezdte Gábor.En: "Zoltán, I want to tell you something," Gábor began.Hu: - Azt beszéljük, hogy valakik megszerezték a záróvizsgák kérdéseit.En: "It's said that some people got hold of the final exam questions.Hu: Ez egy jó lehetőség a sikerre.En: This is a good opportunity for success."Hu: Zoltán nem hitt a fülének.En: Zoltán couldn't believe his ears.Hu: Tudta, hogy ez ellenkezik mindazzal, amiben hisz.En: He knew this went against everything he believed in.Hu: De ugyanakkor rettegett attól, hogy kirekesztik, ha értesíti a tanárokat.En: But at the same time, he dreaded being ostracized if he reported it to the teachers.Hu: Napok múlva, amikor éppen a figyelmét próbálta összpontosítani a tanórákra, Eszter, a legjobb barátnője, újabb pletykával jelent meg.En: Days later, when he was trying to focus his attention on the lessons, Eszter, his best friend, appeared with another rumor.Hu: - Zoltán, már mindenki tudja, hogy kik a bűnösök.En: "Zoltán, everyone already knows who the culprits are.Hu: De senki nem meri bevallani.En: But no one dares to confess.Hu: Ha nem szólsz, te is részese leszel ennek az egésznek.En: If you don't speak up, you'll be part of all this too."Hu: Zoltán lelkiismereti harcot vívott magával.En: Zoltán was fighting a battle of conscience with himself.Hu: Mikor elérkezett az utolsó iskolai nap, tudta, hogy döntenie kell.En: When the last school day arrived, he knew he had to decide.Hu: Az iskola folyosóin járkált, és érezte, hogy minden szem rá szegeződik.En: He walked the school corridors, feeling everyone's eyes on him.Hu: Mégse hátrált meg.En: Yet, he did not back down.Hu: Az igazgató irodája előtt megtorpant egy pillanatra, de aztán kopogott.En: He paused for a moment in front of the principal's office, but then knocked.Hu: Belépéskor rájött, ez a helyes lépés.En: Upon entering, he realized this was the right step.Hu: Az igazgatónak részletesen elmesélte a történteket.En: He recounted the events in detail to the principal.Hu: - Köszönöm, hogy elmondtad Zoltán - mondta az igazgató komolyan.En: "Thank you for telling me, Zoltán," the principal said seriously.Hu: - A vizsgálatot megkezdjük, és biztosítom, hogy az igazság ki fog derülni.En: "We will begin the investigation and I assure you that the truth will come to light."Hu: Hamarosan az iskolában mindenki értesült róla, hogy a csalók lebuktak.En: Soon, everyone at the school learned that the cheaters had been caught.Hu: A diáktársak véleménye megoszlott.En: The students' opinions were divided.Hu: Volt, aki haragosan tekintett Zoltánra, de sokan tisztelték bátorságáért.En: Some looked angrily at Zoltán, but many respected him for his courage.Hu: Aznap délután Eszter és néhány más barát odalépett hozzá, hogy gratuláljon neki az őszinteségéért.En: That afternoon, Eszter and a few other friends approached him to congratulate him for his honesty.Hu: - Jó döntést hoztál - mondta Eszter mosolyogva.En: "You made the right decision," said Eszter with a smile.Hu: Amikor beköszöntött az utolsó tanév végi ünneplés, Zoltánt hívta ki az igazgató, hogy megköszönje az iskolának tett szolgálatait.En: When the final end-of-year celebration arrived, the principal called Zoltán out to thank him for his services to the school.Hu: Zoltán büszkén állt ott, és sokkal magabiztosabbnak érezte magát, mint valaha.En: Zoltán stood there proudly and felt more confident than ever.Hu: Rájött, hogy hűnek lenni önmagadhoz mindig a legjobb döntés, függetlenül attól, mit gondolnak mások.En: He realized that staying true to yourself is always the best decision, regardless of what others think.Hu: A nyár eleji napfényben pedig egy új fejezet kezdődött számára, tele önbizalommal és tiszta lelkiismerettel.En: In the early summer sunlight, a new chapter began for him, full of self-confidence and a clear conscience.Hu: A valódi barátok pedig mindig mellette álltak.En: The true friends stood by him all the way.

In this episode of the Beauty School Bobbi podcast, Bobbi interviews Tatum Neal, a multifaceted artist in the beauty industry. They discuss Tatum's punk rock influences, the intersection of music and hairdressing, and the importance of community in the beauty world. Tatum shares insights on growing up in a family deeply rooted in the beauty industry, the evolution of his Elevate shows, and the challenges currently facing the industry, including advocacy for beauty education. The conversation highlights the significance of creativity, representation, and the power of live events in inspiring both new and seasoned professionals. Bobbi and Tatum discuss the challenges faced by the beauty industry, the importance of using their voices to effect change, and the inspiration drawn from various figures in their lives. They also delve into practical advice for aspiring hairdressers, emphasizing the need for business acumen and effective communication with clients. The discussion highlights the balance between creativity and the business side of beauty, encouraging new professionals to embrace both aspects for a successful career.   Takeaways Hair is a vehicle for artistic expression. Music is the nucleus of Tatum's work. Elevate is about building community and creativity. Every city has its own unique culture. Live shows provide a different energy and inspiration. Representation in the beauty industry is crucial. Advocacy for beauty education is necessary. The beauty industry faces significant legislative challenges. Creativity can reignite passion in seasoned professionals. Elevate shows are inclusive and brand neutral. It's crucial for the beauty industry to advocate for itself. Collectivizing efforts can lead to significant change. Inspiration can come from various sources, not just within the industry. Creating social change through art and fashion is a valid goal. Every day in the beauty industry won't be perfect, but persistence is key. Understanding the business side of beauty is essential for success.

Anthony Santana survived fentanyl addiction, homelessness, drug dealing, and nearly 100 overdoses — but what he saw inside the rehab industry shocked him almost as much as the streets. In this episode of The Connect, Anthony exposes the dark world of rehab corruption, body brokering, and treatment centers allegedly profiting from fentanyl addicts through insurance payouts. He breaks down how addicts are recruited, paid, recycled through detox programs, and sometimes pushed back into relapse so the money keeps flowing. Anthony also opens up about selling fentanyl and Xanax in California, living homeless in Los Angeles, dealing drugs in MacArthur Park, surviving overdoses, and eventually finding real recovery after years of addiction. This is a raw look at the fentanyl crisis, the California rehab scam, and the hidden business behind addiction treatment. Go Support Anthony!

A series of relatable life dilemmas—from feeling hurt after a close friend used a long‑planned baby name, to dealing with overwhelming guilt after missing a child's milestone birthday, to navigating anxiety as a parent constantly worried about their kid's safety. There's also the stress of being in love with a partner who won't prioritize financial stability, struggles with a pet that won't let its owner sleep, and the emotional challenge of temporarily separating from family to make ends meet—real situations that spark honest conversation about relationships, responsibility, and how to cope when life doesn't go as planned.

This week on Undressed with Pol' and Patrik, we're taking you inside the world of hip-hop royalty with the incredibly talented Chey Smith, daughter of legendary Wu-Tang Clan icon Method Man. What starts as a hilarious conversation about luxury cars, scratched rims, BMWs, and growing up surrounded by one of music's most iconic families quickly turns into one of our most heartfelt episodes yet. Chey shares what life was really like growing up with Method Man as a father, revealing that despite his superstar status, he was always present for school pickups, family dinners, Halloween parades, bowling nights, and movie outings. We celebrate Wu-Tang Clan's upcoming Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction while laughing about whether we'll be sneaking into the Grammy Museum celebration. We discover Chey is much more than "Method Man's daughter." She surprises us with stories about working at Wendy's and Chipotle, earning minimum wage despite coming from rap royalty, graduating with a psychology degree, wanting to become an orthodontist, teaching elementary school, acting, rapping, and building her own career from the ground up. She even treats us to an exclusive freestyle rap featuring Pol', Patrik and SnowWhite90210 that has us laughing from beginning to end. The laughs continue as we dive into dating disasters, luxury hotels, Birkin bags, tattoos with hidden meanings, her beloved dogs Nugget and Bosco, and why pineapples mean friendship... unless they're upside down in Palm Beach! Along the way we swap stories about our own 23-year love story and why knowing someone's hotel matters more than their pickup line. Then everything changes. Pol' performs one of his most emotional Armenian Coffee Readings yet. Immediately spotting a mysterious letter "H," the reading uncovers painful chapters Chey had buried deep inside herself. As the symbols unfold, we discuss toxic relationships, losing your identity while trying to save someone else, learning to stop living in another person's shadow, and finally reclaiming your own purpose. The reading becomes even more emotional when Pol' reveals that someone is constantly praying for her—a revelation that instantly brings thoughts of her incredible mother and leaves all of us fighting back tears. Chey bravely opens up about a past relationship that changed the course of her life, fractured friendships and family dynamics, and forced her to rebuild herself from the inside out. Together, we explore what it means to release people who no longer serve your purpose, embrace your own gifts, and stop being afraid of being truly seen. We wrap up celebrating Chey's exciting future, including her upcoming album, new music, acting career, Season 2 of Red Hook, and her determination to step fully into her womanhood, her artistry, and her own spotlight. This episode is packed with celebrity stories, hilarious moments, heartfelt honesty, powerful life lessons, and one unforgettable coffee reading that reminds us all that sometimes healing begins the moment we finally choose ourselves.

In this inspiring episode of Reading With Your Kids, we celebrate creativity from two powerful angles: art education and graphic novels. First, Jed chats with Matt Ross, founder and CEO of One River School and former CEO of School of Rock. Matt shares how he saw a gap in arts education—no "cool" art schools that celebrated living artists—and decided to build something new. One River School now has 15 locations across six states, offering project-based classes where kids and adults can start anytime, have fun, and slowly build real skills without the pressure of perfection. Matt and Jed talk about why creativity is an "X factor" in life, how art helps kids (and grownups) grow emotionally and personally, and how parents can nurture play and creativity even while worrying about college, careers, and the rise of AI. Matt also opens up about his son with severe autism and how creativity helps them connect. Then Jed welcomes Akeem S. Roberts, cartoonist, New Yorker contributor, and creator of the Class Pet Ghost Detective middle grade graphic novel series. Akeem introduces Carter and Mister Pebbles, the stinky naked mole rat whose ghost helps Carter solve the mystery of his own death. He shares how comics like Calvin and Hobbes and Garfield shaped him, why he never talks down to kids, and how he builds stories that work on multiple levels for both children and adults. Families will love using this series to spark conversations about responsibility, friendship, and "good trouble"—doing the right thing even when it's hard.

Welcome back to this week's episode of Trudge Report. Thank you for supporting the show. We go around the horn without Shawn who is mysteriously missing in action. Dan shares the experience of his son's 8th grade graduation and moving on to high school. Corey gets concert redemption from Dave when he went to see Noah Kahan a few days ago. Greg shares the trials and tribulations of Chinese buffets and the high scores of kid pitch baseball for a young age group. The boys also briefly touch on the UFC showdown at the White House that was happening as recording was going on. In the recovery segment, we look beyond the first 30 days and into that crucial first year. We talk about growing up, learning life skills, finding purpose, staying active in recovery, and resisting the temptation to think we've got it all figured out. From day labor to early sobriety jobs we thought we'd never make it out of. Halfway house memories. We look back on these times as simple and straightforward. We realize that the weight of addiction was being lifted right before our eyes so long as we stayed on the simple path that was being laid out in front of us. “I'm grateful my alcoholism was severe.” Steve-ODon't forget to like, share, rate, and download the podcast on all of your listening platforms.

Join us LIVE AT FIVE (PT) on YouTube for the watch party every Wednesday: https://www.youtube.com/@birdsandbeesdontfck Caitlin V is a sex and relationship coach, former sexuality researcher, author of Harder, Better, Longer, Stronger, and host of Good Sex on HBO Max from Michigan where her earliest sex education included a fifth-grade period lesson, a graphic STI scare slide in health class, and years of curiosity about pleasure that she had already discovered on her own. In this episode we talk about what men actually want help with in their sex lives, why performance goals like "lasting longer" rarely solve the real problem, and how intimacy, not frequency, is what most couples are actually craving. Caitlin shares how she went from academic sex research at the Kinsey Institute to coaching men about sex and relationships, why maintenance sex can quietly kill desire, and how intention, presence, and curiosity can transform a sex life. We also get into astrology and sexual chemistry, loud sex and the connection between breath and orgasm, group dynamics in intimacy, why coaching spaces for men matter, and the surprising way Caitlin realized academia wasn't where she wanted to make her impact.

Michael Rix didn't choose music — music chose him. Growing up in Faith Assembly, a cult in rural Indiana that forbade medical treatment, secular music, and nearly any form of outside connection, Michael found his escape in a homemade guitar string stretched across a punishment paddle. Today, he's an eight-instrument musician with over 24 million streams, a residency in Nashville, and a Grand Ole Opry performance to his name. His memoir, From Cult to Country: An Asthmatic's Journey to Find More Air, tells the full story — including watching his infant brother die of untreated meningitis, surviving years of stress-induced asthma without medical care, and the long road to healing that followed.In this episode, Dr. Tara Perry sits down with Michael for a raw and remarkable conversation about what it costs to grow up without permission to be human, how trauma lives in the body long after the circumstances change, and why telling the truth about your story is one of the most powerful things you can do.Key Takeaways:When you're in a cult, you don't know you're in a cult (00:00:35) — Michael describes watching his father transform from a joyful, basketball-playing man into someone cold and controlled — and how noticing that contrast was one of his earliest signs that something was deeply wrong. The teachings of Hobart Freeman's Faith Assembly came in slowly, then all at once.A medical doctor who walked away from medicine (00:02:46) — Michael's father completed his residency as a heart surgeon, then quit the profession after a sermon convinced him that modern medicine was equivalent to witchcraft. Michael unpacks the twisted theology behind it — and what it cost their family when that belief was applied to their children's health.Over 300 deaths, all from treatable conditions (00:07:24) — Faith Assembly members died from dental infections, childhood illnesses, and ailments that penicillin would have resolved. Michael describes the congregation, the prosecutions that eventually followed, and the surreal reality of parents being sentenced to prison for letting their children die while trying to follow God.Stress-induced asthma and the body's way of keeping score (00:14:24) — From age 11 to 14, Michael suffered three-day asthma episodes that left him breathless on the sofa, too sick to move. No inhaler. No emergency room. It wasn't until decades later — after hearing a Nashville minister describe her own identical symptoms — that he understood his asthma was emotionally driven, his nervous system responding to a world it didn't feel safe in.Watching his brother die (00:25:24) — At 14, Michael witnessed his six-month-old brother John die of untreated meningitis. His father prayed over the infant until the final breath. Michael was standing in the living room. This is the moment the episode turns — and the anchor point from which so much of his healing work has since begun.Music as the original medicine (00:29:53) — Long before therapy or coaching, Michael found his way out through songwriting. With headphones, a CD player, and a notebook, he translated his interior world into lyrics. His album I Can See the Sun — 24 million streams — grew directly from those pages. He shares the song titles and the feelings behind them, and reflects on what it meant to finally say what he actually felt.The toxic beliefs trauma leaves behind (00:32:48) — Through a process called SoSo Prayer with a psychologist friend, Michael excavated the beliefs he'd built around his worst experiences: nobody will accept me if they know, better keep this buried, telling the truth will get me rejected. Dr. Tara connects this to the subconscious stories that run below the level of awareness — and explains why those stories often control outcomes long after the original wound has passed.What happened when Michael worked with Dr. Tara (00:34:37) — Michael describes the session: a deeply relaxed state, forgotten memories surfacing, and a palpable shift in the heaviness he'd been carrying for years. Within days, the anxiety he'd long struggled to name had lifted — and opportunities began opening around him in ways he hadn't expected. He describes feeling clear, unblocked, and no longer weighed down by a stress he couldn't locate.Ready to take your own next step?

Summer brings more than sunshine and vacations—it brings change. Whether your child is heading to camp, navigating more freedom with friends, learning new responsibilities, or preparing for college, summer often reminds us of a truth that's easy to avoid during the busy school year: our children are growing up. In this special summer conversation, Hunter Clarke-Fields and Chris Willard explore how mindfulness can help parents navigate transitions with greater ease, courage, and trust. They discuss why letting go can feel so difficult, how overprotection can unintentionally undermine children's confidence, and what research says about raising capable, resilient kids. Together, they dive into the parenting paradox: our job is to build strong attachment, but our goal is eventual independence. In this episode you'll learn: Why transitions feel difficult for both children and parents How mindfulness helps us navigate uncertainty and change The surprising science behind autonomy, competence, and connection How to support independence without sacrificing safety Why boredom is often the gateway to creativity and resilience Practical ways kids can become contributors at home How to handle homesickness, separation, and mixed emotions Why summer is the perfect season to practice flexibility The difference between healthy guidance and controlling behavior How simple family rhythms can create calm during less structured months Plus, Hunter and Chris discuss summer routines, family vacations, camp jitters, teenage freedom, and the often-unspoken grief parents experience as children grow more independent. Because raising confident kids isn't about holding on tighter—it's about learning when and how to let go. Resources Mentioned Self-Determination Theory (Edward Deci & Richard Ryan) Maria Montessori's work on independence and competence Mindfulness practices for parenting through transitions Have you ever struggled with letting go as your child grows?

As Father's Day approaches, this week's episode of Fostering Change is one of our most personal conversations yet.For years, listeners have heard Rob Scheer share his family's story through the lens of a former foster youth, adoptive father, advocate, and founder of Comfort Cases. This week, he sits down with his youngest son, Tristan, for an honest and heartfelt conversation about family, foster care, belonging, and the journey they've shared together.Tristan joined the Scheer family as an infant, alongside his older brother, Greyson, instantly transforming the family from two children to four. Today, at 17 years old, he's a high school junior, an accomplished football and track athlete, and a young man beginning to think about college, adulthood, and the future ahead.Together, father and son reflect on growing up in a family built through foster care and adoption, what it was like being surrounded by advocacy and public service, and how Tristan defines family, belonging, and home.More than a Father's Day episode, this is a conversation about love, resilience, healing, and the lasting impact of showing up for one another.Conversation HighlightsTristan's perspective on growing up in the Scheer familyWhat it means to be part of a family formed through foster care and adoptionGrowing up around Comfort Cases, advocacy, and public serviceThe values Rob and Reece worked to instill in their childrenHow family is built through commitment, consistency, and loveLessons learned from fatherhood, family, and shared experiencesAthletics, college aspirations, and Tristan's hopes for the futureWhy belonging matters at every stage of lifeWhy This Episode MattersThis conversation reminds us that foster care is not ultimately about systems, policies, or paperwork.It's about people.It's about children finding stability, growing into young adults, building relationships, and creating futures for themselves.As Father's Day arrives, we also recognize that families come in many forms. Some young people have traditional fathers in their lives. Others are guided by foster fathers, adoptive fathers, grandfathers, uncles, brothers, mentors, coaches, teachers, or caregivers who step forward when they're needed most.And many are still searching for that connection.To all those who show up, stay present, and help a young person know they matter: Happy Father's Day.And to every young person experiencing foster care, may this conversation remind you that family is not defined by biology alone. Family is built through love, commitment, and the people who choose to stay.

In this episode of Life in Motion, Jeremy catches up with old friend Casey Smith — also the second-ever guest on the podcast — for a conversation that feels equal parts reflective, honest, and inspiring. Casey shares how life has shifted over the years from BMX to running, coaching, parenting, travel, and trying to find balance through it all. They talk about supporting your kids when they find their passion, building routines that keep you grounded, staying creative even when interests evolve, and what it means to keep showing up for the things and people you care about. It's a real conversation about growing older, holding onto what matters, and learning how to keep life in motion without losing yourself along the way.Life in Motion is brought to you by Actual Outdoors.

In this episode of Bonfire Conversations, I speak with narrative designer David Mervik, known for his work on LittleBigPlanet 3, Little Nightmares, Little Nightmares II, and the critically acclaimed Reanimal from Tarsier Studios.Originally planned around the game's launch, this conversation was postponed due to the outbreak of war in my home country, Iran. During that period, experiencing real-world uncertainty and loss gave new meaning to Reanimal's themes of fear, innocence, and survival.Together, we explore the relationship between war and storytelling, the loss of innocence, writing without dialogue, and how real-life tragedies can shape the emotional foundation of interactive narratives.David also shares insights into his creative process, inspirations, and the philosophy behind building worlds that communicate emotion beyond words.Thank you for watching and supporting Bonfire Conversations.Subscribe for more conversations with filmmakers, game developers, composers, and storytellers shaping the world of modern narrative art.Chatpers:0:00 - Introduction & Welcome1:16 - Postponing the Interview: Living Through War in Iran3:18 - The Inception and Themes of Reanimal10:50 - Addressing War Without Glorifying It11:38 - Childhood Memories & Influences on Tarsier's Games15:11 - Evolving as a Person and a Parent16:47 - Growing Up in the UK and Stumbling Into Sweden19:03 - Finding a Passion for Writing and Narrative Design21:35 - Moving to Tarsier Studios & Transitioning Away From Level Design22:27 - Telling Stories With Fewer Words: The Power of Minimalism28:31 - Penny for Your Thoughts: Finding Light in Dark Moments31:10 - Learning Humility and Overcoming Strong Opinions32:20 - David's Top Five Favorite Horror Films33:55 - David's Favorite Video Games of All Time35:55 - What Scares a Horror Writer the Most?38:03 - What's Next for Tarsier Studios?

Connect with Abi: https://www.instagram.com/abistumvoll/I don't bring many women onto BraveCo, but when I do, it's because they have something that men need to hear — something they won't get anywhere else. Abby Stumble is one of my oldest and most trusted friends, and this conversation is one of the most honest ones I've ever had on this podcast. Abby grew up thinking she had a great childhood. She was wrong. A mentally ill, drug-addicted mother. A home full of chaos she internalized as her own failure. Panic attacks, suicidal thoughts, self-hatred, and a body she despised — all without a single clear explanation for why. It wasn't until she was 37 that the real story started to unravel. And what happened next changed everything she thought she knew about herself, her marriage, and what healing actually looks like.We go deep into marriage in this one — specifically what happened when two beautiful train-wrecks decided to build a life together. Abby and Justin's story is a masterclass in how broken attachment cycles play out in real relationships: the avoidant man who disappears, the anxious woman who picks fights just to pull him back, and both of them trauma-bonding through explosions they thought was just how love worked. Sound familiar? We unpack the exact moment their marriage started to change — and it wasn't a big dramatic breakthrough. It was ownership. Honesty without shame. Vulnerability that didn't demand rescue. And I share my own piece of this too, because for years I went home every night feeling like a boy, not a man — isolated, ashamed, and slowly drowning while Lauren watched me disappear. This is the conversation that brings all of that into the open.And then Abby goes somewhere I didn't expect. She tells the story of a season four years ago when she was so sick she couldn't walk ten feet, had lost thirty pounds, and begged Justin — through genuine physical torment — to end her suffering. What she learned in that dark place about present-moment living, nervous system regulation, collecting moments of good, and training your brain to attach to safety instead of pain is some of the most practical, life-changing content I've ever heard. If you're in a hard season right now — with your health, your marriage, your emotions, or your sense of who you are as a man — this episode is for you.

Robert Ledogar spent over 30 years serving his country — first in the Navy then as a Supervisory Deputy US Marshal for the Eastern District of New York. He spent decades hunting down and capturing some of America's most wanted fugitives, transporting federal prisoners including El Chapo during his trial, and running some of the most dangerous operations the US Marshals Service has ever seen. In this episode of Locked In with Ian Bick, Bob pulls back the curtain on what it really looks like to hunt fugitives in New York City — the process the stories and the cases he'll never forget. He opens up about transporting El Chapo on Con Air and what that experience was really like. And then he tells the story nobody inside the agency wants told — how after 30 years of unblemished service he stood up for a female deputy marshal being harassed and assaulted by her own colleagues — and how the agency spent the next four and a half years trying to destroy him for it. Fired two months before retirement eligibility. He fought back. And in August 2021 — he finally won. _____________________________________________ #USMarshal #ElChapo #truecrimecommunity _____________________________________________ Thank You To CASH APP For Sponsoring This Episode: Download Cash App Today: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/6pao71et #CashAppPod Cash App is a financial services platform, not a bank.

70% of what American children eat today is ultra processed food and the regulatory system that's supposed to protect them has been asleep for decades. In this episode, I sit down with Nick Green, co-founder and CEO of Thrive Market, the membership-based online grocery platform that built a $700 million business by treating healthy food access as an infrastructure problem, not a willpower problem. Nick grew up watching his mother drive across Minnesota to find organic options before the internet existed and 20 years later, built the company meant to make that struggle obsolete. We get into the GRAS self-certification loophole that lets food companies rubber stamp their own ingredients as safe, why synthetic dyes and preservatives banned across Europe remain standard in the US, and how Thrive goes beyond EU standards to vet every single product on its platform. We also cover what the GLP-1 trend is actually revealing about the deeper food system failure, why the American healthcare model was built for infectious disease and is fundamentally unprepared for chronic disease prevention, and the shared metabolic roots of cancer, heart disease, and Alzheimer's. Nick breaks down how AI is now personalizing the grocery experience for 1.7 million members, why becoming a public benefit corporation was a legal commitment to the mission not just a branding decision and what it actually takes to keep a company anchored to its Northstar when investors, scale, and short-term incentives are all pulling in the opposite direction.
