A Picture Book by Christopher Danielson TRANSCRIPT Mike Wallus: The idea of comparing items and looking for similarities and differences has been explored by many math educators. That said, Christopher Danielson has taken this idea to new heights. Inspired by Sesame Street's [song] “One of These Things (Is Not Like the Others),” Christopher wrote the book Which One Doesn't Belong? In this episode, we'll ask Christopher about the Which one doesn't belong? routine and the features that make it such a powerful learning experience for students.  Well, welcome to the podcast, Christopher. I'm excited to be talking with you today.  Christopher Danielson: Thank you for the invitation. Delightful to be invited.  Mike: I would love to chat a little bit about the routine Which one doesn't belong? So, I'll ask a question that I often will ask folks, which is: If I'm a listener, and I don't have prior knowledge of that routine, how would you describe it for someone? Christopher: Yeah. Sesame Street, back in the day, had a routine called Which one doesn't belong? There was a little song that went along with it. And for me, the iconic Sesame Street image is [this:] Grover is on the stairs up to the brownstone on the Sesame Street set, and there are four circles drawn in a 2-by-2 grid in chalk on the wall. And there are a few of the adults and a couple of the puppets sitting around, and they're asking Grover and singing the song, “Which One of Them Doesn't Belong?” There are four circles. Three of them are large and one is small—or maybe it's the other way around, I don't remember. So, there's one right answer, and Grover is thinking really hard—"think real hard” is part of the song. They're singing to him. He's under kind of a lot of pressure to come up with which one doesn't belong and fortunately, Grover succeeds. Grover's a hero.  But what we're wanting kids to attend to there is size. There are three things that are the same size. All of them are the same shape, three that are the same size, one that has a different size. They're wanting to attend to size. Lovely. This one doesn't belong because it is a different size, just like my underwear doesn't belong in my socks drawer because it has a different function. I mean, it's not—for me there is, we could talk a little bit about this in a moment. The belonging is in that mathematical and everyday sense of objects and whether they belong.  So, that's the Sesame Street version. Through a long chain of math educators, I came across a sort of tradition that had been flying along under the radar of rethinking that, with the idea being that instead of there being one property to attend to, we're going to have a rich set of shapes that have rich and interesting relationships with each other. And so Which one doesn't belong? depends on which property you're attending to.  So, the first page of the book that I published, called Which One Doesn't Belong?, has four shapes on it. One is an equilateral triangle standing on a vertex. One is a square standing on a vertex. One is a rhombus, a nonsquare rhombus standing on its vertex, and it's not colored in. All the other shapes are colored in. And then there is the same nonsquare thrombus colored in, resting on a side. So, all sort of simple shapes that offer simple introductory properties, but different people are going to notice different things. Some kids will hone in on that. The one in the lower left doesn't belong because it's not colored in. Other kids will say, “Well, I'm counting the number of sides or the number of corners. And so, the triangle doesn't belong because all the others have four and it has three.” Others will think about angle measure, they'll choose a square. Others will think about orientation. I've been taken to task by a couple of people about this. Kindergartners are still thinking about orientation as one of the properties. So, the shape that is in the lower right on that first page is a rhombus resting on a side instead of on a vertex. And kids will describe it as “the one that feels like it's leaning over” or that “has a flat bottom” or “it's pointing up and to the right” and all the others are pointing straight up and down. So that's the routine. And then things, as with “How Did You Count?” as with “How Many?” As you page your way through the book, things get more sophisticated. And for me, the entry was a geometry book because when my kids were small, we had sort of these simplistic shapes books, but really rich narrative stories in picture books that we could read. And it was always a bummer to me that we'd read these rich stories about characters interacting. We'd see how their interactions, their conflicts relate to our own lives, and then we'd get to the math books, and it would be like, “triangle: always equilateral, always on a side.” “Square: never a square on the rectangle page.” Rectangle gets a different page from square. And so, we understand culturally that children can deal with and are interested in and find fascinating and imaginative rich narratives, but we don't understand as a culture that children also have rich math minds.  So, for a long time I wanted there to be a better shapes book, and there are some better shapes books. They're not all like that, but they're almost all like that. And so, I had this idea after watching one of my colleagues here in Minnesota, Terry Wyberg. This routine, he was doing it with fractions, but about a week later I thought to myself, “Hey, wait a minute, what if I took Terry's idea about there not being one right answer, but any of the four could be, and combine that with my wish for a better shapes book?” And along came Which One Doesn't Belong? as a shapes book. So, there's a square and a rectangle on the same page. There are shapes with curvy sides and shapes with straight sides on the same page, and kids have to wrestle with or often do wrestle with: What does it mean to be a vertex or a corner? A lot of really rich ideas can come out of some well-chosen, simple examples. I chose to do it in the field of geometry, but there are lots of other mathematical objects as well as nonmathematical objects you could apply the same mathematical thinking to.  Mike: So, I think you have implicitly answered the question that I'm going to ask. If you were to say at the broadest level, regardless of whether you're using shapes, numbers, images—whatever the content is that an educator selects to put into the 2-by-2, that is structurally the way that Which one doesn't belong? is set up—what's it good for? What should a teacher think about in terms of “This will help me or will help my students…,” fill in the blank. How do you think about the value that comes out of this Which one doesn't belong? structure and experience?  Christopher: Multidimensional for me. I don't know if I'll remember to say all of the dimensions, so I'll just try to mention a couple that I think are important.  One is that I'm going to make you a promise that whatever mathematical ideas you bring to this classroom during this routine are going to be valued. The measure of what's right, what counts as a right answer here, is going to be what's true—not what I thought of when I was setting up this set. I think there is a lot of power in making that promise and then in holding that promise. It is really, really easy—all of us have been there as teachers—[to] make an instructional promise to kids, [but] then there comes a time where it either inadvertently or we make a decision to break that promise. I think there's a lot of costs to that. I know from my own experience as a learner, from my own experiences as a teacher, that there can be a high cost to that. So valuing ideas, I think this is a space. I love having Which one doesn't belong? as a time that we can set aside for the measure of “what's right is what's true.” So, when children are making claims about this one in the upper right doesn't belong, I want you to for a moment try to think like that person, even if you disagree that that's important. And so, teachers have to play that role also.  Where that comes up a lot is in, especially when I'm talking with adults, if I'm talking to parents about Which one doesn't belong?, often parents who don't identify as math people or who explicitly identify as nonmath people, will say, “That one in the lower left, it's not colored in. But I don't think that really counts.” In that moment, kids are less likely to make that apology, but adults will make that apology all the time. And in that moment, I have to both bring the adult in as a mathematical thinker but also model for them: What does it look like when their kid chooses something that the parent doesn't think counts? So, for me, the real thing that Which one doesn't belong? is doing is teaching children, giving children practice and expertise—therefore learning—about a particular mathematical practice, which is abstraction. That when we look at these sets of shapes, there are lots of properties. And so, we have to for a moment, just think about number of sides. And if we do that, then the triangle doesn't belong because of the other four. But as soon as we shift the property and say, “Well, let's think about angle measures,” then the ways that we're going to sort those shapes, the relationships that they have with each other, changes. And that's true with all mathematical objects.  And you can do that kind of mathematical thinking with non-mathematical objects. One of my favorite Which one doesn't belong? sets is: There's a doughnut, a chocolate doughnut; there's a coffee cup, one of those speckled blue camping metal coffee cups; there's half a hamburger bun with a bunch of seeds on top; and then there is a square everything bagel. And so, as kids start thinking about that, they're like, “Well, if we're thinking about holes, the hamburger bun doesn't have a hole. If we're thinking about speckling, the chocolate doughnut isn't speckled. If we're thinking about whether it's an edible substance, the coffee cup is not edible.” And so that's that same abstraction. If we pay attention to just this one property, that forces a sort. If we pay attention to a different property, we're going to get a different sort. And that's one of the practices of mathematicians on a regular basis. So regular that often when we're doing mathematics, we don't even notice that we're doing it. We don't notice that we're asking kids to ignore all the other properties of the number 2 except for its evenness right now. If you do that, then 2 and 4 are like each other. But if we're supposed to be paying attention to primality as to a prime number, then 2 and 4 are not like each other. All mathematical objects, all mathematicians have to do that kind of sort on the objects that they're working with.  I had a college algebra class at the community college while I was working on Which One Doesn't Belong?, and so, I was test-driving this with graphs and my students. I can still see Rosalie in the middle of the room—a room full of 45 adults ranging from 17 to 52, and I'm this 45-year-old college instructor—and we have three parabolas and one absolute value function. So, a parabola is “y equals x squared.” It's that nice curving swooping thing that goes up at one end down to a nice bowl and then up again. There was one that's upside down. I think there was one pointing sideways. And then an absolute value function is the same idea, except it's two lines coming together to make a bowl, sort of a very sharp bowl, instead of being curved. And we got this lovely Which one doesn't belong?, right? So, we've got this lovely collection of them. And Rosalie, her eyebrows are getting more and more knitted as this conversation goes on. So finally, she raises her hand. I call on her, and she says, “Mr. Danielson, I get that all of these things are true about these, but which ones matter?” Which is a fabulous question that within itself holds a lot of tensions that Rosalie is used to being in math class and being told what things she's supposed to pay attention to.  And so, in some ways it's sort of disturbing to have me up there, and I get that, up there in front of the classroom valuing all these different ways of viewing these graphs because she's like, “Which one is going to matter when you ask me this question about something on an exam? Which ones matter?”  But truly, the only intellectually honest answer to her question is, “Well, it depends. Are we paying attention to direction of concavity? Then the one that's pointing sideways doesn't count.” Any one of these is, it depends on whether you're studying algebra or whether you're studying geometry or topology. And I did give her, I think—I hope—what was a satisfying answer after giving her the true but not very satisfying answer of “It depends,” which is something like, “Well, in the work we're about to do with absolute value functions, the direction that they open up and how steeply they open up are going to be the things that we're really attending to, and we're not going to be attending as much to how they are or are not like parabolas. But seeing how they have some properties in common with these parabolas is probably going to be really useful for us.  Mike: That actually makes me think of, one, a statement of what I think is really powerful about this. And then, two, a pair of questions that I think are related.  It really struck me—Rosalie's question—how different the experience of engaging with a Which one doesn't belong? is from what people have traditionally considered math tasks where there is in fact an answer, right? There's something that the teacher's like, “Yep, that's the thing.” Even if it's perhaps obscured by the task at first, ultimately, oftentimes there is a thing and a Which one doesn't belong? is a very, very different type of experience. So that really does lead me to two questions. One is: What is important to think about when you're facilitating a Which one doesn't belong? experience? And then, maybe even the better question to start with is: What's important to think about when you're planning for that experience?  Christopher: Facilitating is going to be about making a promise to kids. That measure of “what's right is what's true.” I'm interested in the various ways that you're thinking and doing all the kind of work that we discussed but now in this context of geometry, or in my case in the college algebra classroom, in the context of algebraic representations.  Planning. I have been so deeply influenced by the work of Peg Smith and her colleagues and the five practices for facilitating mathematical conversations. And in particular, I think in planning for these conversations, planning a set—when I'm deciding what shapes are going to go in the set, or how I'm going to arrange the eggs in the egg carton, or how many half avocados am I going to put on the cutting board—I'm anticipating one of those practices: What is it that kids are likely to do with this? And if I can't anticipate anything interesting that they're going to do with it, then either my imagination isn't good enough, and I better go try it out with kids or my imagination is absolutely good enough and it's just kind of a junky thing that's not going to take me anywhere, and I should abandon it. So over time, I've gotten so much better at that anticipating work because I have learned, I've become much more expert at what kids are likely to see. But I also always get surprised. In a sufficiently large group of kids, somebody will notice something or have some way of articulating differences among the shapes, even these simple shapes on the first page, that I haven't encountered before. And I get to file that away again for next time. That's learning that gets fed back into the machine, both for the next time I'm going to work with a group of kids, but also for the next time I'm sitting down to design an experience.  Mike: You have me thinking about something else, which is what closure might look like in an experience like this. Because I'm struck by the fact that there might be some really intentional choices of the items in the Which one doesn't belong? So, the four items that end up being there, [they] may be designed to drive a conversation around a set of properties or a set of relationships—and yet at the same time be open enough to allow lots of kids to be right in the things that they're noticing.  And so, if I've got a Which one doesn't belong? that kind of is intended to draw out some ideas or have kids notice some of those ideas and articulate them, what does closure look like? Because I could imagine you don't know what you're going to get necessarily from kids when you put a Which one doesn't belong? in front of them. So, how do you think about different ways that a routine or experience like this might close for a teacher and for students?  Christopher: Yeah, I think one of the best roles that a teacher can play at the end of a Which one doesn't belong? conversation is going back and summarizing the various properties that kids attended to. Because as they're being presented and maybe annotated, we're noticing them sort of one by one. And we might not have a moment to set them aside. It might take a minute for a kid to draw out their ideas about the orientation of this shape. And it might take a little bit and some clarification with another kid about how they were counting sides. They might not have great words for “sides” or “corners,” and [instead they use] gestures, and we're all trying to figure things out. And so, by the time we figured that out, we've forgotten about the orientation answer that we had before.  So I think a really powerful move, one of many that are in teachers' toolkits, is to come back and say, “All right, so we looked at these four shapes, and what we noticed is that if you're paying attention to how this thing is sitting on the page, to its orientation, which direction it's pointing, then this one didn't belong, and Susie gave us that answer. And then another thing you might pay attention to, another property could be the number of sides. If you're paying attention to the number of sides the triangle doesn't belong, and we got that one from Brent, right?” And so run through some of the various properties.  Also, noticing along the way that there were two reasons to pick the triangle as the one that doesn't belong. It might be the sides, and it might be, you might have some other reason for picking it that isn't the number of sides. For kindergartners, the number of corners, or vertices, and the number of sides are not yet obviously the same as each other. So, for a lot of kindergartners that feels like two answers rather than one. Older audiences are more likely to know that that's going to be the same.  So yeah, I think that being able to come back and state succinctly after we've had this conversation—valuing each of the contributions that came along, but also being able to compare them, maybe we're writing them down as part of our annotation. There might be other ways that we do that. But I think summarizing so that we can look at this set of ideas that's been brought out altogether, I think is a really powerful way.  One other quick thing about designing, which is—I hear this a lot from teachers, they're saying, “OK, so we're studying quadrilaterals. So, I made a Which one doesn't belong? with four quadrilaterals. And nobody noticed that they were all quadrilaterals.” To which I say, “They didn't notice because you didn't contrast that property.” So, if there's a property you want to bring out, you better make sure, I think, that you have three things that have it and one that doesn't. Or vice versa—three that don't, and one that does—because then that's a thing for kids to notice. They're not going to notice what they all have in common because that's not the task we're asking them. So, if you want to make one about quadrilaterals, throw a pentagon in there.  Mike: Love it.  So, the question that I typically will ask any guest before the close of the interview is, what are some resources that educators might grab onto, be they yours or other work in the field that you think is really powerful, that supports the kind of work that we've been talking about? What would you offer to someone who's interested in continuing to learn and maybe to try this out?  Christopher: So, we've referred to number talks. “Dot talks” and “number talks,” those are both phrases that can be googled. There are three books, Which One Doesn't Belong?, How Many?, How Did You Count?—all published by Stenhouse, all available as a hardcover book, hardcover student book, or home picture book.  Mike: So, for listeners, just so you know, we're going to add links to the resources that Christopher referred to in all of our show notes for folks' convenience.  Christopher, I think this is probably a good place to stop. Thank you so much for joining us. It's absolutely been a pleasure chatting with you.  Christopher: Yeah, thank you for the invitation, for your thoughtful prep work, and support of both the small and the larger projects along the way. I appreciate that. I appreciate all of you at Bridges and The Math Learning Center. You do fabulous work.  Mike: This concludes part one of our discussion with Christopher Danielson. Christopher is going to join us again later this season, where we'll have a conversation about the nature of counting and how an expanded definition of counting might help support students later in their mathematical journey. I hope that you'll join us for this conversation.    This podcast is brought to you by The Math Learning Center and the Maier Math Foundation, dedicated to inspiring and enabling all individuals to discover and develop their mathematical confidence and ability. © 2025 The Math Learning Center | www.mathlearningcenter.org

There is a big debate over criminal justice reform at the legislative session in Bismarck. Attorney General Drew Wrigley suggests the state has been soft on crime, and that's resulted in higher crime rates. He's pushing a bill to keep people convicted of many crimes locked up for longer. But Jonathan Holth, Gov. Kelly Armstrong's Commissioner of Recovery and Re-entry, pointed out on this episode of Plain Talk that, far from being soft on crime, North Dakota's incarceration rates have been climbing. According to state Department of Corrections data, he's right. The population in North Dakota's state prisons (not counting local jails) is up more than 15% over the last five years, and more than 47% in the previous 20. There is friction between Wrigley and Armstrong's administration over Wrigley's sentencing bill, but Holth joined Plain Talk to talk about another set of bills lawmakers are considering. House Bill 1425, 1417, and 1549, seek to create new tools to help those with addiction and mental health challenges navigate the criminal justice system and find peace and prosperity again. HB1425 addresses diversion and deflection programs, which gives law enforcement, prosecutors, and judges some flexibility to get a person help instead of arresting, charging, and incarcerating them; HB1417 seeks to reform the probation and parole process, addressing things like paperwork and fees that could land people back in jail on minor technicalities; HB1549 deals with helping people re-entering society have the the things they need, like up-to-date ID, to find housing and jobs. Holth says these three bills together provide "a comprehensive look at sort of the front end, the middle, and the back end" of the criminal justice system. Also on this episode, Minot-area librarian Randi Monley, a co-chair of Right to Read ND, gave an update on the progress of Senate Bill 2307, which is book ban legislation introduced by Sen. Keith Boehm, who argues that North Dakota's libraries and schools are showing children pornography. The legislation requires libraries to move supposedly offensive materials to places where children aren't allowed. "So in a K-12 library, what are you going to do? Are you going to have to have a separate space for just high school kids?" she asked. "I doubt many schools are going to do that.  Or does everything in the library need to be at the level for a kindergartener?" Also on this episode, co-host Chad Oban and I discussed a hearing on Wrigley's legislation, Senate Bill 2128, which saw some less than truthful testimony. This episode is presented by Bakken Backers.

Send us a textThursday March 18th 1965 was a dismal day in the town of Tyrone, Pennsylvannia. Shortly after midday, six year old Kathy Shea left her home for the short walk to her elementary school. Although spring was just around the corner, slushy snow lined the streets as the Kindergartner hurried along on her way. Several people saw Kathy enroute but she never made it to her lessons that afternoon. A bloodhound tracked Kathy's scent to a spot within eyesight of the school. The only conclusion was that the little girl had been abducted by person or persons unknown. Since that day there has been no sign of Kathy.Sources for the episode can be found hereSupport the showFollow Persons Unknown: Instagram and FacebookEmail: personsunknownpod@gmail.comWebsite with Transcripts:https://personsunknown.buzzsprout.com/

Send us a Text Message.Welcome to another episode of 5 minute parenting. Today, I have a special guest, Holly Debella McCarthy. She's a dedicated educator, an accomplished author, and a passionate advocate for child development and education. She's a former special education teacher, a school administrator, and university professor. Holly now writes full time, and she creates resources supporting parents and educators. Her Dilly Duck and Friends series features three award-winning children's picture books, and it highlights the themes of kindness, teamwork, and environmental awareness. Here are some of the key takeaways from the episode:1. Establish Daily Routines: Parents can help their children transition from summer schedules to school routines by gradually adjusting bedtime, lunch, and snack times. Practicing opening lunch boxes and containers independently can also build confidence.2. Practice Expected School Behaviors: It's beneficial to familiarize children with expected school behaviors such as waiting, good listening, and lining up. Parents can also reach out to the school or teacher to understand classroom rules.3. Play School at Home: Role-playing as the teacher and student can provide a fun way to model expected school behaviors and reduce school anxiety.4. Countdown to School Calendar: Using a calendar to count down the days to the first day of school can help children understand the concept of time and build excitement.Visit Holly's website where she shares practical parenting strategies and resources.

►► Ask A Question To Be Featured On The Podcast: https://www.producedbymkc.com/question It's hard to think of a worse feeling than knowing the value of what you've purchased doesn't live up to the dollars you traded for it. Most of us simply want a quality, reliable, and pleasing sounding set of speakers that get the job we're asking them to do done well. That job may be your Kindergartner's school play, your weekend warrior country band, or a packed out arena. We're bombarded in all directions with sly marketing promises and pseudoscience - how can we sift through the noise and make decisions using pertinent, foundational metrics? Today I unpack 10 key categories that help you make informed, conscientoius decisions when selecting the right speaker for *your* gig (regardless of budget). We'll cover: 1. What speaker specs and features *actually* matter?2. Do expensive speakers really sound better?3. How do I know this product will serve me and my clients well?

Julie VanLier and Dr. Svetlana Cvetkovic discuss their experiences and successes teaching phonics.  They both highlight the importance of a speech-to-print approach and the impact it has had on their students' reading and spelling abilities. The conversation also delves into the principles of speech to print and the scope and sequence of instruction.  They emphasize the importance of interleaving, where concepts are revisited over time. The integration of phonics into all aspects of reading and writing is key, as well as the use of authentic text. Overall, their approach focuses on engagement, flexibility, and integration to ensure student success in literacy.TakeawaysTeaching phonics using a speech-to-print approach can lead to significant improvements in students' reading and spelling abilities.The principles of speech to print include the understanding that one, two, three, or four letters can spell a sound.A sound can be spelled in many different ways, and the same spelling can represent different sounds.The scope and sequence of instruction in a speech-to-print approach involves teaching students the different sound-spelling patterns and helping them understand the logic and patterns of the English language.Key Tenets of Speech to Print Sounds can be represented by 1, 2, 3, or 4 letters. Sounds can be spelled different ways.Spellings can be pronounced in different ways.ResourcesJulie's iReady scores infographicKinder spelling phase comparisons using traditional & speech-first phonics approaches infographicEvidence-Based Literacy Instruction (EBLI) Li & Wang (2023) self-teaching meta analysis -- self-teaching was enhanced through phonological recoding via spelling A step-by-step pdf for k-2 teachers using FREE speech-first resources-- I especially encourage kinder teachers to take the free 1-hour Udemy course by John Walker (founder of Sounds-Write) as it includes a full scope & sequence for teaching the basic code and even into the beginning advanced codeEp. 147: Hot Topic Series: What is Speech to Print? Connect with us Facebook and join our Facebook Group Twitter Instagram Don't miss an episode!

The war in Ukraine has forever changed the young students of one kindergarten classroom, who are now scattered all around the world. For the past year, NPR's Elissa Nadworny has been following a group of six-year-olds from the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv. After the city came under attack by Russian forces, the children's school abruptly closed and many families fled. In this episode of The Sunday Story from Up First, Nadworny helps us understand the ripple effects of war through the eyes of children who lost the world they knew.

Millions of Ukrainian children had their schooling interrupted by Russia's invasion. The war has also shaped their childhood in lasting ways. NPR's Elissa Nadworny visited a kindergarten classroom in Kharkiv, Ukraine, that was hit by Russian artillery last August. She set out to find out what happened to the children who had been students there.In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.Email us at considerthis@npr.org.

The irony of this training is the fact that I am writing the script while flying on a private plane from a secluded island in the Bahamas after spending 3 days spearfishing, eating, and hanging out with friends and clients. That was a moment of privilege. Spending your days with continual electricity is a privilege.     If you are listening to this talk, you have privilege. Privilege is “a special right, advantage, or immunity granted or available only to a particular person or group”.  A more direct definition is to be “exempt from an obligation from which others are subject.”   How do you know if you are in a class of privilege?  Others shoulder a burden you don't have to shoulder.   It wastes our time to try and determine if we are privileged, and instead to ask “because we have privilege, what does that mean?”  In the barren desert of the middle east, a man hears a message.  “I will bless (privilege) you so that you can be a blessing (offer privilege to others).”   This training is about the so that.   When you have privilege that goal is not to consume the privilege you have, but instead to inventory the privilege, proximity yourself among those who do and don't have your privilege, and then offer privilege to others in a way that allows them to follow the same reinvestment strategies. The problem with privilege is that we tend to see it as terminal; either it stops with us (because we consume but don't re-invest, OR it stops with the direct person we share it with because they consume but don't re-invest). Brian Fikkert co-authored an aptly named and important book “When Helping Hurts” that opens our eyes to understand that when we have privilege, we want to share that privilege, and too often the privilege we share ends up doing more harm than if we would have just kept the privilege ourselves. It would help to redirect the privilege discussion back into the context of Executive Leadership and tie privilege back to our definition: proximity to motivate a team to pursue the named future you see. Let's look at consuming and deploying privilege through three lenses of our definition. First, privilege can bring proximity. There is a template for leveraging the privilege of money to influence friendships.  Of course, we are not condoning nor suggesting bribes or payoffs.  Instead, you can choose to deploy your money in places that provide you proximity for connection. We were at a resort with our family, clearly a place of privilege…it was a once in a lifetime type of trip.  This resort puts us in immediate proximity to people who had the same or more privilege than we had.   We get to talking with some of the other vacationers and over time get the direct email of a very well-known and influential music industry executive who has put some of the greatest acts in the world on the stage.  We sat and watched a World Cup match with he and his young son and developed a relationship.  The inanimate tool of our money provided us with “a special right…granted or available only to a particular person or group.”   It is good to consistently ask, “how can the privilege I have provide proximity to bring that privilege to others, or to provide new relationships that breed new privilege.” Secondly, privilege can breed motivation. When you have access to privilege you often have something someone else would like to have but is unable to attain. Think about the privilege of a well-known athlete who is willing to step down from his throne of notoriety and sincerely show up to read a book to a Kindergarten class, or visit patients at a hospital and offer encouragement. The athlete has the privilege of notoriety, influence, and voice…they offer that to those who do not and thus bring a unique motivation that might help that Kindergartner grow up to have a unique impact, or provide the motivation for the mental fight that a patient will need to conquer their disease. Privilege reinvested breeds new and novel privileges that can be perpetuated. Privilege consumed breeds bitterness, expectation, and myopic arrogance that pushes the privileged to think they are the ones responsible for their own privilege ignoring all of the investment of privilege that has been planted into their own lives.   This training exists in part because we don't want you to slowly become that. You are too generous, and you are too intentional for your life to slowly devolve into arrogance and self-importance. Thirdly, privilege helps to jump the various hurdles on the way to the named future that you see.   I enjoy Guy Raz' How I Built This Podcast…it is a fascinating look at the emotional inside of some of the world's most interesting businesses. Towards the end of each podcast, he asked a staple question, “Does your success have more to do with luck, or with skill?” I love the podcast, and I hate that question. Remember the old adage, “the harder I work, the luckier I get.”  When we have moments of momentum and success that we cannot explain we tend to call it luck.  Pausing to reflect we can actually align our “lucky moments” to moments of privilege; privilege that you had that connection, or were in that specific location.   There are things we coordinate or manipulate for our benefit, and there are things that “just happen”.  Pay close attention, ask yourself, “would this have happened if I did not have access to a certain privilege that others don't.” One day I might meet Carrie Underwood… it would feel like “luck”, but a short audit of my relationships and privileges reveals that I had the privilege of being a paying member of a mastermind group, that mastermind group offered me the privilege of meeting and getting to know a very talented guitarist and Dobro player, and that very talented guitarist had the privilege of being the Dobro player for Carrie Underwood. What looks like “luck” to most is actually privilege dressed in a lack of awareness and context.   History's wealthiest and wisest person whose privilege was well documented once declared, “all is vanity and chasing after wind.”   When we make privilege the end game, we become the walking dead. When we look at privilege as an investment to enjoy and reinvest… we make time for what matters most.   Finally, privilege can and will be a load to bear.  Share that load with people who have wisdom.  The word “team” has its roots in the concept of a team of pack horses…a unified group pulling heavy loads in a specific direction. Privilege requires building a team to help advise, direct, and hold account your privilege so that it remains a value to all, and not just you.   A business owner had accrued a significant sum of money in a profit account that he had setup to build up as his business grew. As we were reviewing progress I told him, “Congratulations on how you have grown that account.” He looked at me with a blank stare and responded, “just one more problem I've got to handle.” When you have resources, it is your responsibility to manage those resources.  Of course, most people are bent to desire more instead of less, and the more you have, the more you are required to distribute. The ultimate question you must answer is “what will you do with what you have” knowing that your response to that question will reveal the desire and state of your ultimate motivation. Be mindful, slow, and wise with the privilege that you have.

Israel blows up the home of the home of the terrorist who killed one and injured four others this last October in Kiryat Arba, and the world goes crazy over it. Kindergartners are practicing to kill Israelis, and the UAE opens a synagogue. All this and more on today's show

THE THESIS: There is no such thing as a fiscal conservative, there is no such thing as a social issue.  FACT: There is no such thing as the “secular world.” THE SCRIPTURE & SCRIPTURAL RESOURCES:  Luke 17: 1-3 Jesus said to his disciples: “Things that cause people to stumble are bound to come, but woe to anyone through whom they come. 2 It would be better for them to be thrown into the sea with a millstone tied around their neck than to cause one of these little ones to stumble. 3 So watch yourselves. Matthew 18: 6 6 “If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea. THE NEWS & COMMENT: There are multiple documentaries our right now (and more coming) about the purposeful perversion of our children, both sexually and racially . . .  [AUDIO] - "The hyper sexualisation of children is about the most disgusting thing that this woke movement has come up with" - Laurence Fox @LozzaFox talks about his new documentary 'Groomed'. But, Satan's Special Boy, Mitchell McConnell is unwilling to engage in what he pretends are “social issues …” McConnell's Disastrous Culture War Surrender Is Wrong On The Year, The Issues, And The Nature Of The Fight The fact is, these are the most foundational issues that exist! How a nation treats its children is how the nation will survive or die. Allowing The Party to create angry, drug-addicted, racist, compliant little sex dolls will not only crumble America, it wll place the kids in direct opposition to God and cost them their eternal souls. But, Mitch is a moral coward.  Biden Admin Drops $1.5 Million on ‘Transgender Programming' for Inmates The Party and the Enemy are not hiding what they are doing. Listen to the Boss of government schools in Loudoun County, VA accidentally speak the truth about what they do to kids . . .  [AUDIO] - “We have a pretty robust indoctrination plan,” says Loudoun County Superintendent Scott Ziegler, who also covered up the rapes that occurred in the bathrooms of his high schools. Parents there have waged a mighty battle which they continue to fight . . . Virginia Parents Sue School Board Groomers . . . the fight over the souls of their kids put a Republican in office. The sole reason Glenn Younkin won was because parents witnessed what the so-called schools are doing to kids including covering up rapes and calling the cops on a father who had the audacity to complain about that.  So, what does Glenn Younkin do, now? He pretends he built a coalition on his own and retreats into Mitch McConnell's skirt . . .  [AUDIO] - Glenn Younkin, a TRAITOR to parents--his is governor solely because of so-called “social issues.”. The future of the @GOP is centered around kitchen table issues. Rising inflation & high gas prices don't discriminate whether you have an R or D by your name. Voters want leaders that cut taxes, stand with law enforcement, & understand that parents matter, just like in VA. And, the assault continues . . . This Blue State Cites George Floyd's Death To Justify Trans Lesson for Kindergartners; Maine's Biden-funded lesson described transgender person as 'someone who the doctors made a mistake about when they're born' Amaze.Org is hiring “youth ambassadors” to get paid to watch sexual materials Not even a world famous singer who never needs to work again can withstand the pressure campaign by gender jackers and their supplicants in the media. But, Mitch McConnell doesn't care . .  .  [AUDIO] - Singer Macy Gray Has Been Re-Educated on What a Woman Is and It's the Creepiest Thing You'll See Today Mitch gets points for Roe Vs. Wade. God uses broken vessels, since He uses us. But, the same rot Mitch ignore in the government struggle session schools is the same rot that leads to hysteria like this  . . .  [AUDIO] -  Chris Hayes: "The Supreme Court is, I fear, an acute threat to American representative governance and democracy" [AUDIO] - Elizabeth Warren: “We need to put a stop” to crisis pregnancy centers “right now.” HHS Secretary Xavier Becerra says his department is continuing to explore opening abortion clinics on federal land See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A suspect who admits to the death of Lily Peters in Chippewa Falls has been arrested, and the details are haunting. John Thompson's latest round of lies. Over the top sex education in Chicago. Kindergartners, really? Johnny Heidt with guitar news.

Kindergartners should be on the playground and watching Dora the Explorer... not talking about lesbianism and trans ideology. SURPRISE: The Democrats  hate parents and want our kids raised by the government. Their opposition to the Florida HB 1557 is disgusting but hardly shocking. To be honest though, Democrats, PLEASEEEEEEEE run on $6 gas, opposing parents rights, and releasing criminals out of jail. We'll have a wonderful red wave if you keep it up.YALL GET A EXTRA LARGE COFFEE (I'm exhausted) and BE UNCANCELLABLE
