Podcast appearances and mentions of jodi thomas

Jodi Thomas joins Ashley on this week's episode and she is the unsung Cupid of Love Island USA, and she spends up to eight months scouring bars, festivals, and the darkest corners of Instagram to find that perfect mix of charm, abs, and emotional availability. Her job? To separate the genuinely interesting from the “here for the brand deal” crowd. Contrary to popular belief, she's not out to cast villains — unless, of course, that villain cries on camera and shows personal growth by week six. With reality TV evolving into a bizarrely empathetic space where aftercare is real and mental health check-ins are more common than hot tub hookups, Jodi's casting philosophy boils down to one thing: give viewers real people who make real mistakes, preferably in swimwear.Follow Jodi here:https://www.instagram.com/jodicasting/Checkout the new Hopecast website:https://thehopecastnetwork.com/Follow the show here:https://www.instagram.com/loxoflaughspodcast/https://www.instagram.com/thatsashleyskitchen/

La puntata di oggi si apre con alcuni film al cinema e on demand, che raccontano il compianto Papa Francesco o altre storie vaticane, tra realtà e fantasia. Su tutti, in questi giorni l'attenzione del pubblico si è nuovamente catalizzata su "Conclave". Dal sacro al profano, parliamo poi di "altre morti", quelle più iconiche dei personaggi delle serie tv: su tutte, quella freschissima in "The Last of Us", ma rigorosamente senza spoiler! Si parla anche di "Ransom Canyon", la serie western romantica basata sui libri di Jodi Thomas, che è stata definita da Variety come una versione "arrapante" di Yellowstone. E poi, per la consueta rubrica "5 cose che non potete non sapere", oggi parliamo di "Scissione", serie fantascientifica arrivata alla sua seconda stagione (ora tutta disponibile su Apple), diretta da Ben Stiller. E ancora: il film "Clueless - Ragazze a Beverly Hills" avrà un sequel come serie TV, e si preannuncia il ritorno di Alicia Silverstone. Anche Emily in Paris torna e torna a Roma: al via nella Capitale le riprese della quinta stagione. E a proposito di set in Italia, Mel Gibson torna a Roma per dirigere il seguito del suo "La Passione di Cristo".See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ransom Canyon, Netflix's latest Western romance series developed by April Blair and based on Jodi Thomas' books, blends small-town drama with personal baggage. Starring Minka Kelly and Josh Duhamel, the show kicks off with a pilot full of will-they-won't-they tension, family pressures, and a looming pipeline deal that threatens the land. We discuss episode one, “Don't Let Me Fall”, a 46-minute installment, and explore how the show stacks up against Virgin River, Landman, and others—while unpacking whether it has enough going on to keep audiences engaged. Welcome to Today's Episode!

In this episode, inspired by the season three finale of The White Lotus, we're delving into the best and worst finales of all time. Listen as we discuss what paid off and what left us wanting closure in The White Lotus's Amor Fati. Plus, we disclose which finales make our top-tier list and which are dumpster fires that should be banned from the canon.Relevant links: Our full show notes are at knoxandjamie.com/602Listen to this episode ad free, our new Gilmore Girls Pilot Program and more with a 7 day free trial of the Friends with Benefots tier at knoxandjamie.com/patreonThe White Lotus S3 Finale | Top Finales: {J} The Americans | Succession | Fleabag {K} The Sopranos | Dinosaurs | The ResurrectionWorst Finales: {J} Sherlock | Will and Grace | Alias {K} Godfather 3 | Rise of Skywalker | Pitch Perfect 3Red Light mentions: Jamie's 601 corrections - Jodi Thomas not Piccault | History of Asbestos in J&J Baby Powder (aside: Retha Nichole's YouTube) | Mission: Impossible - The Final Reckoning Trailer (aside: Tom Hanks' daughter's Tell All) Green lights:Jamie: book - Blood over Bright Haven by M.L.

Guest: Jodi Thomas is a language pathologist and owner of Growing Voices Speech and Language Therapy based in East Valley Phoenix, AZ. Jodi Thomas has training in autism and gestalt language processing and opened her private practice to give children the 1 on 1 attention they deserve.  Interview: There are two ways children develop language: analytical and gestalt. Children with autism often develop language using gestalt, and that requires using a different framework for evaluations and treatment to adequately meet their needs. Gestalt means whole. One key factor that is focused on with gestalt is echolalia. Echolalia is the repetition of another person's spoken word.  Different Types of Echolalia There are three types of echolalia. The first type is immediate echolalia. With immediate echolalia the child will simply follow another person's speech. The second type is delayed echolalia. This type of echolalia tends to happen at a later time and can be produced with no communicative intent. This manner in a way a child communicates is called scripting. This means that the child is repeating words or phrases they're heard from a parent or tv show. The last type is mitigated echolalia. This is where the child will make a change in wording or intonation made by the person that is speaking to him or her. These different types of echolalia are important to appropriately use gestalt language processing to treat a child.  Different Stages of Gestalt Language Processing  Children who develop a gestalt way of language development learn communication phrases in chunks. In stage 1, a child will start by simply mimicking phrases they hear. During this stage, they will repetitively use the phrases they have acquired and will even attempt to copy the tone of voice the original speaker has. In stage 2, a child will start to break down the chunks of phrases they've stored. A child will begin pairing those phrases together and even start to pair them with new words. Oftentimes they will also start to mix and match different echolalia with their phrases. When a child reaches stage 3, they will use two-word combinations with singular words. This can appear like a backslide in their language because the utterances of phrases can become shorter. During stages 4, 5, and 6, a child can self-generate sentences, learn grammar, and begin to answer questions. During all the stages, it's important to validate your child's communication and help them model new phrases to build their gestalt up. During all stages, try not to ask too many questions as it may overwhelm and frustrate your child.  Ways to Model New Gestalt Phrases  A child first needs to learn new phrases that can be broken down when he/she reaches stage 2. Some common mitigated phrases that can help a child do this begin with the words let's, it's, and I'm. Judy Thomas has noticed that many speech therapists try to use phrases that begin with “I want,” and this phrase can cause a child to get stuck in their development. The goal is for a child to create spontaneous utterances and not just memorize phrases. The best time to help a child model new phrases is during natural child child-led play.  Recap: Don't ignore your child's echolalia. This is an important part of how your child communicates by learning the meaning behind your child's use of phrases will help move development along.  Model back-and-forth phrases through natural play to make learning fun for your child. Remember not to ask too many questions that may frustrate your child and cause him/her to shut down. Walk through the steps of the gestalt learning process appropriately with the help of a speech therapist.  Resources: https://www.growingvoicestherapy.com https://www.facebook.com/growingvoicestherapy  https://www.instagram.com/growingvoices.speech/  https://www.meaningfulspeechregistry.com https://www.meaningfulspeech.com/blog/twotypesoflanguagedevelopment   Subscribe Now & Leave a Review Apple Podcasts, Spotify,  Google Podcast, &  Stitcher Visit our Website www.pureheartstherapy.com Follow Us: Facebook: Pure Hearts Therapy Facebook Group: Autism Family Resource Instagram: Purehearts_Therapy

A conversation with Jodi Thomas, a best-selling novelist and member of the Romance Writers of America Hall of Fame. Jodi lives in Amarillo and has written more than 50 books, from historical romances to contemporary women's fiction—including Mistletoe Miracles, her latest. With host Jason Boyett, Jodi shares about how her career began, her writing process, and why this area plays such a significant role in her work. This episode is sponsored by TalonLPE.

From 2008: We’ve never met, but somehow Jodi Thomas has written the story of my life in her latest novel, "Tall, Dark and Texan." As long-time listeners will know, I grew up in the 1800s on Whispering Mountain in Texas. I was tall, dark and mostly silent, scaring off small children and even hardened criminals until I found the love of a good woman. Are you buying this? I’m lying, of course. But I have to admit I liked the idea of secretly being Teagan McMurray, the strong and silent type.

This month we are excited to bring to you the delightful Jodi Thomas. Jodi is not only a USA Today and New York Times bestseller, she is also the eleventh writer to be inducted into the Romance Writers Hall of Fame after winning her third RITA award. Five of them now sit on her crowded shelf along with National Reader's Choice Awards, and Booksellers' Best Awards. With nearly 50 books under her belt, Jodi gives us an insight into her journey to best-selling author in her charming Texas drawl. She talks about changing genres with her latest book Mornings on Main and about the upcoming Christmas release Mistletoe Miracles.

Today's Guest: Today's Guest: Romance novelist Jane Peden, author of “The Millionaire’s Unexpected Proposal." INTERVIEW Jane Peden, romance novelist, The... by andelman  Watch this exclusive Mr. Media interview with romance novelist Jane Peden by clicking on the video player above!  Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience of well intentioned but occasionally horny young women and the lawyers who encourage them to the letter of the law… in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida! Long-time Mr. Media fans – and you’re not the only one, Mom – are probably aware that it has been a while since I’ve had a romance novelist as a guest. I can’t explain why that is except there are hundreds, perhaps thousands of them and only one of me. But I get a kick out of the genre on occasion and have enjoyed the appearances of Kristin Harmel, Adriana Trigiani, Tracy Anne Warren, Jodi Thomas, JC Isabella, and Brenda Novak. That’s why I was game to read attorney Jane Peden’s first novel, The Millionaire’s Unexpected Proposal. JANE PEDEN podcast excerpt: "Suppose you have a successful lawyer in Miami and five years ago, he had a two-week fling in Las Vegas? He met a very attractive, cool blonde — someone Alfred Hitchcock would have loved — in the hotel bar. He started to feel too close to her and was scared by that so he dumps her and heads back to Miami. He becomes extremely successful. Five years later, she shows up at his office with an unusual proposal...." You can LISTEN to this interview with romance novelist JANE PEDEN, author of THE MILLIONAIRE'S UNEXPECTED PROPOSAL, by clicking the audio player above! And I cannot tell a lie: I enjoyed the heck out of it. The story has twists and turns from start to finish. The romance comes and goes, just like in real life, and the sex is hot and steamy, just the way you want it when you want it. JANE PEDEN podcast excerpt: "I'm what they call a 'pantser' -- I write by the seat of my pants. There is no right way to write a book. But there are a lot of fiction writers who put up big boards and stickies and outlines and they write detailed character interviews before they ever sit down and start writing the book. That doesn't work for me." Making this book all the more fascinating is that writing love stories is what Jane Peden does at night and on weekends; by day, she is an employment law specialist, a happily married wife whose husband is her paralegal, and she is a mother of two. I think you’ll love reading The Millionaire’s Unexpected Proposal and you’ll enjoy getting to know my guest, too.
