How might we better prepare for disasters? What role did deadly design play in Hurricane Katrina? How does the concept of triage during a crisis reflect our values?

Jesse and I have been frequently asked what Kathrynne is doing after she graduates from high school, so we decided to do a podcast episode about it! It got us thinking about how so many of us spend so much time thinking about and worrying about the future that we are missing out on the present. Kathrynne started being asked what her plans were post-graduation at the beginning of her junior year, and constantly being asked began to take a heavy toll on her. People who were asking didn't have ill intent, but it put pressure on her because it made her feel like she was supposed to have an answer even though, as only a junior, she didn't yet. What then would be a better question? We explore that question and offer alternatives, questions that are still well-meaning and don't put as much pressure on youth to have their entire future figured out, questions that focus on the present rather than the future. While we are by no means saying that it's not essential to have long-term goals, what we are saying is that we don't need to be pressuring kids to have a concrete answer, especially not prematurely. We are never even promised tomorrow, so savor today! In This Episode [00:35] – We are talking about after high school today![03:08] – Hear about the trip we went on recently.[05:40] – I reveal what has been saving my life.[08:03] – Has anything been saving Jesse's life lately?[09:51] – I am almost finished listening to Count the Nights by Stars by Michelle Shocklee.[12:48] – Hear how the book I've been reading is relevant to our recent trip.[14:15] – We have been watching Five Days at Memorial.[17:01] – We dive into the topic of what Kathrynne is doing after high school.[19:49] – Most people don't work in what they majored in at college.[21:49] – I pose a question to ask rather than what you're going to do after high school.[23:25] – Jesse touches upon how the question can also lead to guilt.[26:30] – Hear a story that emphasizes the importance of being grounded in the present.[28:12] – We would love to hear more alternate questions from you!

Dr. Sheri Fink is a Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and the author of the New York Times bestselling nonfiction book Five Days at Memorial: Life and Death in a Storm-Ravaged Hospital about the horrible choices that doctors had to make as Hurricane Katrina decimated New Orleans. Dr. Fink reflects of the challenges of managing one's ups and downs during difficult times such as the coronavirus pandemic and the Age of Trump, the importance of coping mechanisms such as gallows humor, and how doctors and other people who are confronted with life and death as part of their jobs navigate that world. She also shares how social capital, various forms of inequality, and human failings more generally contribute to how doctors and other caregivers decide the value of a human life as seen during the extreme crisis that was Hurricane Katrina as well as on a more routine day-to-day basis as well.   Chauncey DeVega continues to highlight how the mainstream American news media is refusing to consistently explain to the American people the realities of the existential threat to their safety, security, and future represented by the MAGAites, the Republican neofascists and the larger White right. To that point, Chauncey offers a close reading of Trump's vile speech in Youngstown, Ohio and how it mirrors the themes and warnings contained in the landmark book The Rise and Fall of the Third Reich by William L. Shirer. There is also an “Easter egg” at the end of this episode of The Chauncey DeVega Show. WHERE CAN YOU FIND ME?

Child protection professionals have tough jobs on any day. Add in a pandemic, and you’re piling stress on top of stress. We talked to Françoise Mathieu, executive director of TEND, an academy in Canada offering resources and training to address the needs of workers in high-stress, trauma-exposed workplaces like Children’s Advocacy Centers and their partner agencies. Françoise is a globally recognized expert on addressing burnout, compassion fatigue, and vicarious trauma in these high-stress workplaces. Naturally, she’s a great person to talk to about how to cope with the added stress and fear of a pandemic while working in fields that already have their share of these issues on the best of days. What’s a healthy response? Why should we stop saying, “Well, when things go back to normal …”? How do we deal with the ever-present feeling that we’re not doing enough? And how do we care for ourselves and our colleagues while keeping our distance? This interview was recorded on Zoom, and there are minor fluctuations in sound quality.Topics in this episode:· Reacting to the pandemic: denial first (1:28)· Feeling guilty that you’re not doing enough (8:23)· Grief and the new normal (19:11)· Caring for yourself and others (31:34)· A sense of moral injury (38:40)· Healthy habits to get you through the crisis (43:21)· Free resources (50:50)· Our next episode (53:58)Links:Françoise Mathieu, executive director of TEND“This Is a Marathon, Not a Sprint: Strategies to Address Wear & Tear in Helping Professionals During COVID-19”Black swan theory NCACFive Days at Memorial: Life and Death in a Storm-Ravaged Hospital by Sheri FinkLinda Cordisco Steele“Leaders Are People Too: Staying Well During COVID-19,” interview with Dr. Patricia Fisher Karen HangartnerTEND’s COVID-19 resources.“Feet on the Floor.” The Three Minute Breathing Space.

Amalie Benjamin is not kidding when she talks about her need of reading.  She is hardly, if ever, without a book or access to one.  She has a goal this year to read 50 books.  That’s a noble goal for anyone, let alone the mother of a young, growing family, and a traveling sports columnist for NHL.com. Amalie’s life as a reader comes to life as she talks about growing up in a household with dedicated reading parents and having a best friend, a high school history teacher, who’s an endless resource of good book referrals. Amalie is just as comfortable talking about Hop on Pop and other children’s books as she is about real-life journalistic thrillers:  Five Days at Memorial: Life and Death in a Storm, and Bad Blood.  She really shines when she makes herself vulnerable.  Her husband, fellow journalist and Dueling with Kings author Daniel Barbarisi, immersed himself deeply into the world of professional sports betting, sometimes putting more on the line than he let on.  For anyone who’s ever felt the intoxication of winning, and the despair of losing, you’ll identify with Amalie and Daniel.

Host: John J. Russell, MD A New Orleans hospital, after Hurricane Katrina, was surrounded on all sides by several feet of water. The power was out, and as time went on without restoration of basic operations, rumors began circulating of the hospital being overrun by looters. It was a period of total chaos with breakdowns in institutional leadership, compromises in patient care, and in some cases, clinical decisions with deadly consequences. Dr. Sheri Fink, author of Five Days at Memorial: Life and Death in a Storm-Ravaged Hospital, takes us on a tour of the aftermath of these events, and the public outcries that both villified and defended the healthcare workers involved. Click here for Part 1 of this fascinating two-part exploration of the disaster, a hospital's response, and the repercussions that have rippled through its affected staff, patients, and families years later.
