She dreamed about spanking parties all her life, but it wasn't until a chance encounter with a certain podcast (who, us?) that veteran and award-winning little (oops, spoilers!), Hilly, realized her dream could come true!

And for those who may not be familiar with Leather OR Littles, Hilly explains both!

In this episode, we're getting real (and a little sassy) about what it looks like to raise kids, love our husbands, and survive church life without losing our ever-loving minds.From toddler meltdowns during altar calls to figuring out where we actually belong in ministry, we're spilling all the tea (and maybe a little Goldfish cracker dust) on parenting in the parsonage. Spoiler: communication with your spouse is everything, your kids really are your biggest ministry, and yes—you're allowed to ask for help.We're also talking about why involving your kids in church activities matters, how to survive those lonely seasons, and why grace from the church family is pure gold. Whether you're knee-deep in diapers or chauffeuring teens to youth group, this one's for you, friend. What You'll Hear in This Episode:The real reason communication with your spouse keeps you sane (most of the time).Why “your kids are your first ministry” isn't just a cliché—it's gospel truth.Permission slip: it's okay to ask for help. Seriously.How to keep your kids engaged in church without making them resent it.Why finding your place in ministry might take longer than you think (and that's okay).A reminder that these early parenting years—though exhausting—will end.

In this episode, editor-at-large Peter Beinart speaks to children's television star Rachel Griffin Accurso, better known to her fans as Ms. Rachel, about her advocacy for Palestinian children in Gaza, tens of thousands of whom have been maimed or killed by Israel over the last 22 months, with many more enduring a relentless campaign of starvation. Ms. Rachel, who has been called this generation's Mister Rogers, began speaking out in May 2024, when she participated in a Save the Children fundraiser for kids in conflict zones, including Gaza. The backlash from the pro-Israel camp was so pronounced that Ms. Rachel soon posted a teary video discussing the bullying she was facing. The Zionist backlash has continued, with the doxxing outfit Stop Antisemitism formally requesting in April that the Department of Justice investigate Ms. Rachel to determine if she was “being remunerated to disseminate Hamas-aligned propaganda to her millions of followers.” But Ms. Rachel has not stopped insisting that Palestinian children, like all children, deserve safety and care. In May, she invited a three-year-old double amputee from Gaza named Rahaf onto her show. Beinart spoke to Ms. Rachel about her advocacy for Palestinian children and the pro-Israel backlash, the role faith and prayer have played in her decision to speak out, and why more celebrities haven't followed suit.This conversation first appeared on The Beinart Notebook on Substack.Thanks to Jesse Brenneman for producing and to Nathan Salsburg for the use of his song “VIII (All That Were Calculated Have Passed).”Media Mentioned and Further Reading“Pro-Israel group asks DoJ to investigate Ms. Rachel over posts on Gaza children,” Joseph Gedeon, The Guardian“Ms. Rachel's emotional plea for the lives of Palestinian children,” Christiane Amanpour, CNNMs. Rachel's fundraising page at the Palestine Children's Relief Fund“A year of tears: 12 months of war on children,” UNICEF ReportTranscript forthcoming.

What is the most important lesson to teach your kids this summer? In this episode of the Crazy Cool Family podcast, we're wrapping up summer with the most essential parenting topic: leading your kids to Jesus. Whether your children are toddlers or teens, creating a family culture where God conversations happen naturally is one of the most powerful tools you have. Don and Suzanne walk through how to talk about faith with kids at different stages: Littles (ages 0–6), Middles (elementary age), and Bigs (middle and high school). They emphasize that helping your children follow Jesus isn't about doing more—it's about being intentional with the everyday moments. From thanking God for the sunshine to sharing how you handle frustration at work, your children learn what a real relationship with Jesus looks like by watching you live it. They also offer practical encouragement for parents who feel unsure, are new in their faith, or have kids pushing away from God. Real stories, relatable struggles, and timeless truth make this episode a must-listen.
We're diving into one of the most overlooked—but surprisingly important—parts of family nutrition: drinks. In this final episode of our “What Can I Eat?” series, we're talking about what's really hydrating (spoiler: it's not just water), why juice boxes aren't the solution, and how ancestral wisdom can help us rethink what we offer our kids and ourselves to drink each day. We chat about everything from raw milk and herbal teas to fermented beverages like water kefir and kombucha. You'll hear practical tips, stories from our own families, and the deeper “why” behind nutrient-dense drinks. If you've ever wondered what's actually worth sipping—or how to ditch the dye-filled sports drinks—this episode is packed with insight.

Welcome to Hot Topics! In this episode, we welcome back Renée Peña Lopez, an early childhood inclusion specialist, to share her journey of living with dyslexia and her surprising recent diagnosis of ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). While our initial focus was on dyslexia, Renée's revelation about her comorbid ADHD adds a fascinating layer to her story.Renée reflects on her childhood experiences marked by perfectionism, where her struggles with comprehension, spelling, and writing were often overshadowed by her grandfather's insistence on academic excellence. She candidly discusses her late dyslexia diagnosis in college and the emotional challenges that accompanied it, including the impact of her learning difficulties on her self-esteem.Throughout the episode, Renée shares her coping strategies, such as utilizing dictation tools and seeking support from mentors, emphasizing the importance of understanding one's learning differences. She explores how her recent ADHD diagnosis intertwines with her dyslexia, offering insights into the unique experiences of women and girls of color navigating these conditions.Renée also dives into the cultural context surrounding learning disabilities, particularly within Black and Afro-Caribbean families, highlighting the need for better awareness and resources to support families dealing with learning differences. She critiques current educational practices regarding spelling and writing instruction and advocates for diverse learning strategies tailored to individual needs.As a parent herself and an educator, Renée reflects on her growth and the importance of empowering children to embrace their learning differences.
