Due to technical difficulties with the recording of Cattle Annie and Little Britches, I had to adjust and decided to put out an old episode of a podcast that my cousin and I use to do called My Celluloid Heart. This episode was called Private Dicks Pt. 1: Kiss Kiss Bang Bang, and as you will hear on it, I had technical difficulties then too. So it's a solo episode that I hope you enjoy. Come back next week for Cattle Annie and Little Britches (1981) with either me, or me and Frank Mandosa from Reels of Cinema.

On this episode of the podcast Phillip is joined once again by Antonio Palacios from The Cultworthy Podcast https://thecultworthy.com/. The two of them have come together to discuss the 1973 Swedish film Thriller: A Cruel Picture starring Christina Lindberg. Phillip starts the show by reading the general information about the movie with some trivia thrown in. It's then time for Listener Opinions from Twitter, Instagram, and Facebook. Antonio and Phillip then have a great discussion about both versions of the film, and the great character that Christina Lindberg plays. They answer the question of whether they noticed anything in this movie that Tarantino might have liked or used in a film. It's then time to individually rate the movie. Then they answer another question about whether they would buy this movie, rent it, or find it for free. Phillip then gives his Phil's Film Favorite of the Week; Cinema Paradiso (1988) (5 stars). Antonio then shares a couple of movies that he has been watching recently; Yanks (1979) & Serial (1980). Then Phillip talks about what's coming up next week, when he will be joined for the first time by Frank Mandosa from Reels on Film to discuss 1980's Cattle Annie and Little Britches. Thanks for listening.

In today's episode, we explore the deep connection between character formation and the Christian call to bear the cross. Inspired by the wisdom of a father in Little Britches, we see how parental discipline shapes not only a child's character but also their ability to endure hardship in faith. A father's words can leave a lasting impression on a child, becoming a guiding principle throughout life. But for Christians, character-building goes beyond earthly honor—it becomes a lesson in cross-bearing. Using examples from Scripture, including Tobit's perseverance and biblical exhortations to discipline, we see that faithful parenting isn't just about raising good citizens but about preparing children for the trials of faith. Discipline, though painful, is a tool by which God teaches endurance. Parents who lovingly correct their children model Christ's own suffering, reinforcing that the Christian life is not about avoiding hardship but embracing it for the sake of eternal joy. By bearing their own crosses faithfully, parents equip their children to do the same. Tune in as we discuss how ordinary acts of discipline and example-setting can have extraordinary spiritual significance—both for parents and their children. ----more---- Host: Fr.

What a treat to have one of my earliest home school mentors on the podcast today. This is a powerful episode where we hear how Carole met God and how He led her to home schooling, which she initially thought was absolute insanity! Carole and I talk about the early days of home schooling when it wasn't legal or illegal and so different than it is now. Hear how Carole's son JJ has joined her in sharing the message of home schooling. What a dream that is! She shares books galore too. My favorite kind of episode! Carole Joy Seid is a joy indeed and you are going to love the encouragement and wisdom she brings from speaking on home schooling for 30 + years.  Here are the resources Carole recommends in this episode: Read and learn about home schooling's pioneers: John Holt Dr. Raymond Moore Susan Schaeffer Macaulay Read their books: How Children Learn by John Holt Better Late Than Early by Dr. Raymond Moore For the Children's Sake by Susan Schaeffer Macaulay For the Family's Sake by Susan Schaeffer Macaulay  Here are the other books Carole recommends in this episode: The Common Rule—Habits of Purpose for an Age of Distraction Theology of the Body for Beginners The Least of These My Brothers  Father Arseny—priest, prisoner and spiritual father Little Britches series  Where to find Carole: Her website here Her seminars here Her podcast here Her Instagram account here  Some favorite quotes from today's episode: “God doesn't waste a thing.” GE “Home schooling was the farthest thing from my mind.” CJS “Home schooling is a huge liberty, and we don't want to take it for granted.” CJS “It's so thrilling to see the next generation of home schoolers carrying out the way of living that is so rich and blessed.” CJS “Sharing the message of home schooling has been the joy of my life.” CJS “The very first home school conference I ever attended was with Carole Joy Seid and it was absolutely transformational.” GE “You can home school with a bible, a library card and a math book.” CJS “High school and college is where your child's theology makes up its mind.” CJS “If you're tired, do something fresh and give yourself a grace package. Because that is what God gives to us.” CJS “Your goal is to get shining eyes!” CJS “The gift of home schooling for me has been all about freedom. The freedom to pursue education in the way that works best for our family, the way that works best for each kid and the way that works best for me as a teacher.” GE “Be the expert on your child.” CJS “Never stop reading out loud to your children.” CJS “The gospel needs to permeate everything you do.” CJS  Don't forget to subscribe to this podcast. And I'd be so very grateful if you leave a 5 star rating and a short review of the podcast. Reviews are incredibly helpful to me as a new podcaster. Thank you for listening and being part of my team.  I love you guys! Greta 

The Lauings have an award winning quarter horse ranch in South Dakota. "Our family began ranching in Central South Dakota in the early 1900s and as the third and fourth generations ranching here, it has taken years for us to build our program to the place where it stand today. Foals from our ranch go on to other breeding programs, to the arena for team roping, calf roping, team roping, team penning, barrel racing, cutting, and to be used as working ranch horses. These horses are mounting competitors from 4-H and Little Britches, High School and college, to the PRCA all across the country. They are cowy horses that are smooth moving across the pasture and quick on their feet in the arena. Horses raised here will do well anywhere." visit http://www.lauingquarterhorses.com

He now lives in the backwoods of Cape Breton with his wife, cartoonist Kate Beaton, Mary the baby, Agnes the dog, Reggie the cat, Peggy the ditch kitten, and six chickens without names because they all look alike. He has a BA in Canadian Studies from the University of Calgary, a Certificate in Central and Eastern European Studies from the University of Economics, Prague, a MPhil in Humanities from Memorial University of Newfoundland, and a participation ribbon for beef calf showmanship (incomplete) from the Little Britches 4-H Club, Caroline, Alberta.

Charity Hill interviews Trisha Galvan LPC and LCPC on the beautifully human word "resilience," a word worth exploring. Trisha defines what resilience looks like and discusses the importance of community to framing a resilient response to difficulty. Trisha also suggests a return to attachment for older children, to ground them for resilient behaviors as teens and young adults. To promote resilience in your family, Charity shares several fictional works, both picture books and middle grade fiction: It Could Always Be Worse by Margot Zemach, The Cow in the House by Harriet Ziefert, A Chair For My Mother by Vera Williams, The Rag Coat by Lauren Mills, The Fire Cat by Esther Averill, Sylvester and the Magic Pebble and Dr. DeSoto by William Steig, Esperanza Rising by Pam Muñoz Ryan, Call It Courage by Armstrong Sperry, and Little Britches by Ralph Moody. Charity also encourages you to set aside time to tell your own stories of resilience to your children.Please enjoy essays at our blog.Enjoy book reviews and reflections at Instagram.

Whenever I get "To big for my Britches" or "Puffed up like a toad," God has a way of reminding me I am really "Little Britches" Like Dave and Goldie Dearing used to call me (back before I got fat). When I think I have life, family, marriage and famille even partly figured out God has to remind me I don't even know my right hand from my left and probably have trouble figuring out which way is up. Maybe us little britches can band together and stumble forward rejoicing till the one who is worthy of all praise comes and catches us rag tag misfits and takes us home

Coronavirus Crisis: Carpe DiemA Call To Arms: Rise Up, Red-Blooded CatholicsEpisode 6:  April 6, 2020Look, I'm going to get right down to it.  We are in a real crisis with this virus.  You've seen the news – New York City's hospitals are overwhelmed and infections and deaths are accelerating exponentially.  We're facing shortages of some basic items and supply chains are breaking down.  We've never experienced anything like this.  And I believe we are in it for the long haul.   The bottom line is this:  The Catholic Church now, more than ever needs heroes to rise up.  The Church needs you to be an unsung hero in your vocation, in your duties of state.  Other souls need you to be clearheaded, calm, effective, thoughtful, patient, generous, and resilient.  They don't just need you to be a holy man or woman.  They need you to be well-formed on a human level, well integrated, soul, heart, body and mind.  Other souls are looking to you for safety, security, guidance, direction.  Are you up for that yet?  Are you equipped to handle whatever may come? Cue music Welcome to the podcast Coronavirus Crisis:  Carpe Diem, where you and I rise up and embrace the possibilities and opportunities for spiritual and psychological growth in this time of crisis, all grounded in a Catholic worldview. This is Episode 6 and its April 6, 2020, entitled A Call To Arms: Rise Up, Red-Blooded Catholics. I'm clinical psychologist Peter Malinoski with Souls and Hearts at soulsandhearts.com.  Thank you for being here with me.   The stakes are high.  Yes, there is life and death on the line.  But there is more than just life and death.  There is salvation and damnation for souls on the line.  Our parishes are shuttered, we've lost the Mass and many of us have lost access to confession unless we are in danger of death. We've lost access to the Eucharist.   Now is the time – now is the time for red-blooded Catholic men and women, drinking deeply of God's grace, to rise to the challenges of these wild times.  There has never been a better time for you to rise up and seize the day. If you are willing to take on this mission, this mission of rising up and shining like a beacon for others, I am here to guide you, step by step and this podcast is for you. I'm here to be with you and walk you through an entire program of human psychological formation to help you triumph in the challenges you are facing, the stresses that confront you.  I am looking for probably less than 1% of Catholics, those that really get that grace builds on nature, the supernatural builds on the natural, and that know they have to work not just on their spiritual life, but also their psychological life.  I'm looking for just a few Catholics, maybe 100 committed souls, maybe more, who want to join me in our online community where we can mutually support each other in becoming unsung heroes in our daily lives.   I'm looking for red-blooded Catholics who want to feast on the nourishing Word of the Gospel as it is, and live it out to the max.  I am looking for Catholics who are tired of the limp-wristed, narrow, timid, lukewarm, worldly approach to our Faith we see all around us.   I am looking for Catholics who are tired of spineless, risk-averse approaches to the faith, masquerading as prudence.  I want Catholics to join me who are ready to be creative, think way outside the box, to find real solutions to real problems, who are willing to make great and small sacrifices, but who just need some guidance, who are looking for some guidance grounded in the perennial teachings of our beloved Church.   And not because we're great – we're not great -- but because we want our Lord to live and act through us.   If you engage seriously with what I offer you, my bet is that many of you will grow much more resilient and much better equipped to carry out your mission to answer God's call for you.  So you might ask: Who are you, Dr. Peter, to volunteer to lead us and why should we follow? My whole career has been focused on bringing people closer to God and Mary through shoring up the natural foundation.  I almost left the field in grad school because I was struggling with how to ground the practice of psychology in an authentic Catholic worldview.  I have decades of experience working with clients, helping them through crises of various kinds.  And I have a wealth of information to share with you.  My spirituality is essentially Carmelite and I'm focused on removing psychological barriers to contemplative union with God.  You can look up my bio on Soulsandhearts.com but this is not really about me.  It's about you.  If you really engage with what I have to offer you, you'll know by the fruits you see if this is helpful or not.   So if I commit, how does this work – how are you going to guide us? So we have this podcast, which is twice per week, Mondays and Fridays.  Every week.  You know, a lot of Catholic websites have shut down or reduced the frequency of their offerings.  We're ramping up and adding resources four or five days per week at Soulsandhearts.com. In each episode, I'll share some inside information, the same kinds of information that has been helpful to me in and helpful to my clients and friends.  We don't do psychotherapy.in this podcast or in any of our offerings at Souls and Hearts, but we do share much of the same information.  So there is a teaching element. Often in the podcasts, there will be an experiential part – where I guide you through a process to understand yourself better.  We did one in the last episode, Episode 5 on discovering more about your mindset when you were in your dark place.  The experiential exercises in this podcast are where we learn by doing.  So we have the educational information, we have the experiential exercises – what else?  We will discuss specific challenges that many people face in resiliency in crisis, in seizing the day.  And I will give you specific guidance on how to overcome those challenges.  You see that at the end of this podcast.   If you register for this podcast on the Coronavirus Crisis Carpe Diem page at Souls and Hearts.com you will get a bonus email on Wednesday with some insider tips, sneak peeks at what's coming up and other resources.  It's really worth getting that email.   Once we get enough people registered, I will be offering webinars for the registered listeners in our community, in which we have time to go into much more depth into a particular area.   I will make recommendations for reading from time to time – nothing lengthy or academic – no, usually short passages.  We keep it really clear and to the point.   I'm also working on a self-assessment instrument for you to help you identify your relative strengths and weakness is facing crises, and I'm planning to be able to give tailored recommendations as your guide (again it's not psychotherapy) for how best to change and grow.   We are also working on community resources on our webpages – getting the discussion boards up so we can communicate and connect with each other.   So we are have been discussing a healthy Catholic mindset – if you are just joining us, make sure to check our Episodes 4 where I discuss the four pillars of psychological resilience for Catholics in a Crisis, and Episode 5, where I dive deeper into mindset.   We're running close to then end of our time today, so I'm going to cut to recommendations for improving mindset.   1.       Get rid of video games.  No Fortnite.  No Minecraft.  No Angry Birds – I mean it.  Cut that way back cut that out.  If you are filling your sensory channels with lots of video games, you're not going to find a deep union with God.  Period.  Full stop.  And those of you that are honest about it will know that there's unlikely to be great Catholic heroes that rise up in crises that also play a lot of video games.  Not gonna happen.  And you know it.   2.      No binging on TV – catching up on three seasons of the Office or Downton Abbey.  It's the same thing as video games.  What Catholic hero spends an hour or two per day watching TV or cat videos on YouTube?  That stuff is just going to drag you down and clog your mind.  TV and video games are incompatible with a deep contemplative life and recollection during a crisis.   Those are the two recommendations.  But Dr. Peter, Dr. Peter, I connect with my family and friends over video games and TV – that what we do, that's what we talk about.  Find a different way.  Get creative.  Look for other ways to connect with your family and friends.  And if video games and TV are the only link you have with your friends, then ask yourself if you might not  need new friends.  No video games – No TV.   One idea is to replace them with reading.  I'm reading the Ralph Moody series out loud to my children and Pam, my wife.  Little Britches.  I do different voices for each of the characters.  In times of crisis it's helpful to read epic adventures – it doesn't have to be Homer's Illiad and Odyssey (those are great) that that's not your style.  Discuss the books with others if you can.   Sign up.  Even if you're already signed up for something else on Souls and Hearts. Sign up for this podcast.   And let others know about this.  Don't forget that you can come to soulsandhearts.com and you can find the show notes for this episode.And that's a wrap for today.   Let's invoke our patroness and patron:  Mother Mary, undoer of knots, pray for us.  St. John the Baptist, pray for us.

Bob Ward’s first novel, Shedding Skin, showed up in 1968, capturing his gypsy years between Baltimore and Haight Ashbury. He taught school for a short time until Tom Wolfe urged him to write again. He paid attention and moved to New York City to join the new journalism movement, hotfooting it from piece to piece for GQ, Rolling Stone and other major publications. He’s written novels, movie scripts (including Cattle Annie and Little Britches with Burt Lancaster and Diane Lane); TV—award-winning, long-running Hill Street Blues, and was show runner (Head Honcho) for Miami Vice. I’m currently reading Renegades, an outrageous compendium of his road trips and celebrity interviews. The Stone Carrier, a new novel about a gonzo journalist in New York, will be published shortly. Bob also plays a mean guitar. He and his wife Celeste live in L.A.

In the April 2012 edition of Quiddity, the CiRCE Podcast, we had the really fun opportunity to interview Cindy Rollins. Cindy is a regular contributor to our website and blogs here. Cindy has more than 20 years experience as a homeschooler and therefore has a wealth of knowledge (very nearly second to none!).In this conversation we discussed good books for children grades 7 and under, some of which are classics of which you've probably heard (Little House On the Prairie) and others are works with which you may not be so familiar (the works of John Buchan and Little Britches).Cindy has some really interesting things to say about those Little House books (some bold claims) and about how to deal with questionable language in children's literature.So sit back – or run or drive or however you listen – and enjoy.
