Growing up is supposed to mean getting wiser. So why does it so often feel like losing something you can't quite name? Julian Shapiro-Barnum, the creator of Recess Therapy, thinks kids still have some of the answers. In How to Grow Up Without Becoming a Grown-Up, he asks what happens when we trade emotional honesty, imagination, and hope for the version of adulthood we think we're supposed to perform. Then historian Tobias Becker takes the other side of that longing in Yesterday: A New History of Nostalgia: why we keep reaching for the past—and why “nostalgia” might not mean what we think it does. Two books about growing up, looking back, and what we lose along the way.
Few things say “welcome to adulthood” quite like opening a medical bill and realizing you have absolutely no idea what you're looking at. There are billing codes, insurance adjustments, deductibles, coinsurance, and somehow a procedure that costs one amount on one line costs something completely different on another. In this episode of Grown-Up Stuff, Matt and Lea tackle the confusing world of medical bills and healthcare costs with patient advocate and healthcare transparency expert Cynthia Fisher. They break down how medical billing actually works, what all those codes and numbers mean, and why the amount a hospital says it charges isn't necessarily the amount you’ll pay. You'll learn how insurance-negotiated rates, deductibles, copays and coinsurance factor into your final bill, why it's worth asking for an itemized bill, and what to do when something doesn't look right. Cynthia also explains how to question charges, negotiate medical bills, and advocate for yourself when you're faced with a bill you can't, or don't think you should have to, pay. Because being a grown-up means knowing how to make a doctor's appointment. But apparently it also means knowing what to do when the bill arrives.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
What happens when Mindy tries to master the world's loudest, most complicated musical instrument? In this episode about practice, memory, and the amazing ability of the brain to learn, Mindy and Guy Raz embark on a hilariously noisy adventure involving a baseball stadium organ, a very frustrated music teacher, and enough noise to shatter windows! Along the way, you'll discover what happens inside the brain when we practice something again and again, how neurons can become more organized with repetition, and why getting better at something takes more than simply wishing you were good at it. This episode is packed with musical mayhem, laugh-out-loud hijinks, fascinating brain science, and one very important question: Can practice really make permanent?Why does practicing something over and over help you remember it? What actually changes inside your brain when you keep working at a new skill? And could studying tiny mouse brains help scientists understand how our own brains learn and remember? Mindy and Guy Raz explore a fascinating study from researchers at UCLA and Rockefeller University, who trained mice to recognize and remember scents in a specific order while observing the neurons in their brains. They discover that as the mice practiced, the activity of their neurons became more organized—offering a WOW-worthy glimpse into how practice can help the brain get better at remembering and performing tasks!This episode is a hilarious journey into the science of learning and memory. Along the way, kids and families will discover how neurons communicate, how scientists study brains to understand behavior, and how repeated practice can strengthen the brain's ability to remember. And, of course, Mindy puts the science to the ultimate test as she attempts to transform her truly terrible baseball stadium organ playing into something resembling actual music!This is the Who, What, When, Where, Why, How, and Wow of practice, memory, neurons, learning, and the incredible science of how our brains get better at things over time!✨ Don't miss the chance to explore even further with Wow in the World:Grownups can visit tinkercast.com/join-twaaw to join the World Organization of Wowzers (WOW) and unlock exclusive activities, birthday cards, quarterly mailings, first dibs at events, and a welcome kit with an autographed photo of Mindy & Guy Raz!

Last week we aired a fascinating and inspiring conversation with Julian Shapiro-Barnum about his new book How to Grow up without Becoming a Grown-up and his strategies for resisting the pull of what can often end up being a constrictive and joyless adulthood. Today, Tiffany and Katy continue the conversation. They wonder: have they managed to remain childlike (or hey, even childish) despite the fact that they have entered long since adulthood? And does having your own kids keep you young, or does it make you even more of a grown up? What can we learn from kids about staying young-at-heart? Tiffany's 11-year-old son Aurelio joins us at the end of the episode to share his thoughts.

Hollywood legend Rob Schneider (SNL, Deuce Bigalow, Grown Ups) joins Andrew Gold in the desert. in this deep dive, Rob reveals why he's choosing to stay in "Siberia" rather than conform to the new authoritarianism of the film world. From secret phone calls with A-list stars who are too afraid to speak out, to his famous (and surprisingly touching) confrontation with Robert De Niro, Rob pulls back the curtain on the "blacklisting" happening behind the scenes. We explore the "politics of envy," why critics have always had it out for him, and the emotional toll of being "canceled" by his own family. This isn't just about movies—it's a conversation about the collapse of Western institutions, the rise of "suicidal empathy," and why Rob believes that "silly is king" in a world that has lost its sense of humor. Whether you're a fan of classic SNL comedy or you're here for the "heretical" truth-telling, this interview is a must-watch. 00:00 The Hollywood Blacklist: Who's Really in Control? 04:40 The Politics of Envy: James Cameron & The Titanic Backlash 08:45 The Secret Discussion with Jerry Seinfeld at SNL 50 11:15 Why the Studio System is Collapsing in Real Time 13:30 Was Senator McCarthy Right?

Let us know!This week on Made for Mondays, Joe is joined by Nick, Doug, and Corey as they kick off The Bible for Grown-Ups, a series exploring the story, history, and questions behind the Bible.After catching up on the weekend and talking about the Bible Reading Challenge, the conversation dives into Sunday's message about how Christianity began—not with a finished Bible, but with people who believed they had encountered the risen Jesus. Together, they explore eyewitness testimony, honest questions about Scripture, and why Jesus remains at the center of our faith.In this episode: Weekend highlights Bible Reading Challenge discussion How our personal Bible experiences shape the way we read Scripture What Luke tells us about eyewitnesses and the early church Why “something happened” is at the heart of Christianity How questions about the Bible can lead us back to Jesus Why reading John can be a great place to start when exploring faith If you've ever had questions about the Bible, struggled with a difficult passage, or simply wondered where it all came from, this conversation is for you.Join us this Sunday at 9:00 & 10:45 AM as we continue The Bible for Grown-Ups.

Storytime for Grown-Ups is a podcast that will help you learn to love classic literature. Whether we choose to admit it or not, many of us find the great books of the past inaccessible. The language is dense, the vocabulary is unfamiliar, and the characters seem old-fashioned. Too often, these books are thrown aside as boring or too difficult even if their plots intrigued us to begin with. But these books are classics for a reason—we just need a way in. Host Faith Moore will read a book aloud, a few chapters per episode. As she reads, she'll pause from time to time to give brief explanations that will make it easier to follow along. Like an audio book with built-in notes. And the more you listen, the easier the language will seem.So brew a pot of tea, find a cozy chair, and settle in. It's storytime! Season 6 of Storytime for Grownups premieres Thursday September 3rd, 2026, with new episodes dropping every Monday and Thursday. Learn more here: https://faithkmoore.com/Support the show

It's Friday, which means absolutely nothing makes sense anymore.Today's comedy podcast somehow manages to connect Guns N' Roses recording new music, Green Day launching a 24/7 YouTube channel, Perez Hilton's heartbreaking situation, a Nicolas Cage John Madden movie, Robert Pattinson becoming Chris Hansen, and perhaps the strangest movie trailer any of us have ever seen... Wicker.Yes. A movie about a man literally made of wicker.Naturally, the show spends way too much time trying to figure out why half the internet suddenly wants to date a decorative patio basket. There are jokes about Pier 1 Imports that absolutely shouldn't work—but somehow do—and the crew completely loses it imagining the logistics of dating someone who probably needs to stay away from open flames.Meanwhile, Slash says Guns N' Roses are finally writing new music again, and for longtime fans that's almost as unbelievable as hearing Axl and Slash are actually getting along. The gang dives into what that reunion means, why Chinese Democracy still feels like it took several presidential administrations to arrive, and whether this album might finally become reality.Music nerds also get excited over Green Day launching a nonstop streaming channel full of concerts, music videos, and rare footage, sparking an entire conversation about why every legendary band should basically become their own MTV.On the celebrity side of the world, things take a much more serious turn as the crew discusses Perez Hilton's recent hospitalization and how public perception changes when someone who built a career covering celebrity meltdowns experiences one of his own. It's thoughtful, honest, and still unmistakably The Rizzuto Show.Movie fans get plenty to chew on with Super Troopers 3, Grown Ups 3, Madden starring Nicolas Cage, Jurassic production drama, and one of the creepiest trailers of the year featuring Robert Pattinson transforming into Chris Hansen. Somehow that's still only the second weirdest trailer discussed.Then, because no Friday is complete without an argument nobody asked for, the crew debates the greatest Disney animated films ever made. Beauty and the Beast? Lion King? Toy Story? Aladdin getting snubbed? Feel free to yell at your speakers along with everyone else.It's packed with rock news, pop culture commentary, ridiculous observations, bizarre movie discussions, celebrity gossip, nostalgic music memories, and enough sarcastic nonsense to carry you into the weekend.If you like your mornings loud, weird, funny, and just a little unhinged, this comedy podcast delivers exactly what you'd expect from The Rizzuto Show... and probably several things you never saw coming.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
Lern prepares for a family getaway to Table Rock Lake that quickly turns into a debate over golf carts, caves, spas, and whether anyone actually wants to leave the house. The gang dives into the strange pressure of family vacations, why everyone wakes up before sunrise, and whether it's okay to disappear for a solo adventure just to save your sanity.Meanwhile, Rafe makes an emotional confession about falling back in love with cheese after attempting a dairy-free experiment, leading to one of the funniest conversations about comfort food you'll hear all week. The crew also argues over the greatest fast-food burgers in America, gives Dairy Queen's food menu the respect it deserves, and somehow ends up discussing Sonic-related trauma that's apparently lasted decades.Moon continues his streak of bringing the internet's strangest lists, including the world's best food cities, the worst drivers in America, the most romantic cities, and a collection of Victorian slang words that quickly derail into pure nonsense. Somehow "Cupid's kettle drums" becomes a legitimate on-air discussion.There's plenty of classic Rizz Show chemistry throughout as the crew bounces from travel stories to family drama, awkward Airbnb experiences, summer spending habits, childhood freedom, and everything in between. It's exactly the kind of organized chaos listeners expect from a daily comedy show that never stays on one topic for very long.Guns N' Roses recording new music, Green Day launching a 24/7 YouTube channel, Perez Hilton's heartbreaking situation, a Nicolas Cage John to play King Scott in a new movie, Robert Pattinson becoming Chris Hansen, and perhaps the strangest movie trailer any of us have ever seen... Wicker.Meanwhile, Slash says Guns N' Roses are finally writing new music again, and for longtime fans that's almost as unbelievable as hearing Axl and Slash are actually getting along. The gang dives into what that reunion means, why Chinese Democracy still feels like it took several presidential administrations to arrive, and whether this album might finally become reality.Music nerds also get excited over Green Day launching a nonstop streaming channel full of concerts, music videos, and rare footage, sparking an entire conversation about why every legendary band should basically become their own MTV.On the celebrity side of the world, things take a much more serious turn as the crew discusses Perez Hilton's recent hospitalization and how public perception changes when someone who built a career covering celebrity meltdowns experiences one of his own.

Beauty and the Beast? Lion King? Toy Story? Aladdin getting snubbed? Feel free to yell at your speakers along with everyone else.Moon breaks down some of the biggest beer myths you've probably believed your entire life. Does beer really cause a beer belly? Are dark beers actually stronger? Is draft beer secretly responsible for your hangover? The gang debates science versus "trust me, bro" logic before somehow ending up discussing functional beers loaded with vitamins, probiotics, adaptogens, and enough wellness buzzwords to confuse your local brewery.Rafe returns with another legendary In Memoriam segment featuring everything the show managed to completely derail throughout the week. We revisit the listener email that somehow sparked the now-infamous horny pilgrim ghost conversation, proving once again that The Rizzuto Show audience has a very specific line between "too weird" and "perfectly acceptable."The crew also pays tribute to thousands of dollars worth of stolen Little Debbie snack cakes, because apparently organized crime has moved on from cash and drugs to Cosmic Brownies and Oatmeal Creme Pies.You'll also hear discussions about bizarre new baby names like Chaos, Rooster and Gatorade, King Scott embracing both silk bonnets and fixing appliances, Jimmy Buffett versus Warren Buffett confusion, Taco Bell settlement drama, dangerous Q-tip habits that may or may not unlock another dimension, and Moon's passionate defense of Guinness Zero.As always, Rafe wraps things up with his hilarious rapid-fire memorials before ending on heartfelt tributes to several notable figures who passed away this week, balancing absurd comedy with genuine respect in a way only this crew can.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShow.Hear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.How much are Americans spending every weekend on summer activities?Habit Burger's Double Char crowned America's best burgerWorst Drivers in America (2026 Data)NYC ranked most romantic US city despite shaky reputation for singles - whiles a surprising Deep South city cracks the top 5Green Day launch 24/7 YouTube stream 'GDTV' featuring unseen archival footage, full gigs, backstage action, studio sessions and moreHow to Ignite an Internet Frenzy?

Cats may be famous for chasing mice, but did you know they actually have a rather refined palate? In this purr-fectly hilarious episode of Wow in the World, Mindy and Guy Raz step into the busiest cat café ever created to uncover the surprising science behind why our feline friends go absolutely bonkerballs for tuna! From roller-skating waiters to mushy tuna bowls, this adventure is packed with outrageous restaurant chaos, fascinating taste science, and a dining room full of very hungry cats!When Mindy opens the doors to Tuna Time, her brand-new tuna-themed diner for neighborhood cats, business is booming! As plates of sloppy tuna fly out of the kitchen and cats keep asking for refills, Mindy reveals that the menu is inspired by a fascinating new scientific discovery about why cats find tuna so irresistibly delicious.Kids and families will sink their teeth into remarkable research published in the journal Chemical Senses, where scientists investigated how cats experience the savory taste known as umami—often described as the "essence of deliciousness." By studying feline taste receptors, the researchers discovered that cats receive an especially powerful umami boost from amino acids found in foods like tuna, making these flavors incredibly appealing. The episode also explores how this differs from the way humans experience umami, why cats can't taste sweetness the way we can, and how scientists hope these discoveries could help create tastier cat food—and even medicines that picky cats will actually want to eat.Packed with laugh-out-loud restaurant disasters, surprising animal biology, delicious food science, and plenty of feline fun, this episode serves up an unforgettable helping of curiosity while showing how understanding the senses of animals can lead to healthier, happier pets.✨ Don't miss the chance to explore even further with Wow in the World:Grownups can visit tinkercast.com/join-twaaw to join the World Organization of Wowzers (WOW) and unlock exclusive activities, birthday cards, quarterly mailings, first dibs at events, and a welcome kit with an autographed photo of Mindy & Guy Raz!
