Podcasts about Mother Brain

Join us as we sit down with Ellie Rinnick, a longtime NAPS client, Moms Together founder, and fellow romance novel enthusiast, to have a brutally honest conversation about postpartum, newborn life, and the expectations placed on new moms. Ellie shares how she struggled to connect with her newborn, why the idea that motherhood is “natural” set her up for failure, and how finding community changed everything. Motherhood isn't all baby snuggles and magical moments—sometimes, it's wondering if you'll ever sleep again, texting your best friend “What have we done?”, and crying over your nipples. And that's okay.   In This Episode, We Cover:  • Why you don't have to like your newborn—and why that doesn't make you a bad mom • The myth that postpartum is “natural” and why that mindset sets moms up to struggle • The moment Ellie realized she actually liked her baby (hint: it took weeks) • The guilt of not feeling how you're “supposed” to feel after birth • How finding a community of moms helped Ellie navigate postpartum struggles • Reframing expectations for motherhood—because not every moment is magical   Key Takeaway:  • There's no manual for motherhood—but having real conversations like this one makes it a little easier.   Resources & Mentions:  • Moms Together – Ellie's in-person support groups for moms in the Milton, MA area • NAPS Support Groups – Virtual and in-person groups to help parents feel less alone • Mother Brain by Chelsea Conaboy – A book about how becoming a parent changes your brain • Ellie's Podcast: Day in Her Life – Where Ellie interviews women about the details of their daily lives   Feast & Fettle: Use code NAPSPOD for $30 off your first order  SilverPost: Use code NAPSFAMILY for $5 off any plan kozēkozē: Use code NAPS for 20% off your purchase

In this episode of the Unswaddled Podcast, Emily and Jamie sit down with Tina Cartwright, founder of Rebranding Motherhood, to have a no-BS conversation about postpartum struggles, body literacy, and the massive gaps in support for new parents. Tina shares her raw and real experience with postpartum depression after both of her children, how she learned to advocate for herself in the healthcare system, and why she's on a mission to change the way we talk about motherhood. What You'll Hear in This Episode: • The reality of postpartum depression—how it looked different with each of Tina's kids • The importance of body literacy—why tracking your cycle and understanding hormones can be life-changing • The myth of "bouncing back"—Tina shares the truth about postpartum recovery and how long it really takes • How she created Rebranding Motherhood to bring real, unfiltered parenting conversations to the forefront • What support actually looks like—beyond baby registries and cute nursery decor Key Takeaways: "Motherhood is sold to us in a way that is completely sanitized—and that's a problem." Tina explains why the way we prepare parents for postpartum is failing us, and what needs to change "Your body takes YEARS to recover postpartum—not weeks." Understanding your body is key to healing, and no one teaches you how to do that​ "It takes a village—but sometimes, you have to build your own." Tina shares how she redefined what support looked like when traditional help wasn't available​ Resources Mentioned: • Rebranding Motherhood – Curated by Tina Cartwright, founder of Rebranding Motherhood, this deeply engaging and highly connected membership brings together expert-led resources, real-time support, and an unshakable community of moms who truly get it. https://www.rebrandingmotherhood.co/member-site-homepage-1 • Pelvic Guru – A resource for finding pelvic floor physical therapists • NAPS Support Groups – Postpartum support and education for parents • Mother Brain by Chelsea Conaboy – A must-read book on how parenthood changes the brain Listen now for a brutally honest, deeply insightful conversation on what it really means to recover postpartum.

The greatest climactic showdowns in gaming history.Jess McDonell presents the 10 Best Final Bosses Of All Time... Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Many new parents share that they feel a shift in identity as they begin to care for a child in the house. It can be hard to identify what's changed and why. If you have ever found yourself as a parent thinking, “I feel the same but also so different, why?” or “what is happening to me? Why do I feel the way I do?”, or “who am I now that I am a parent?” this episode is for you.    Chelsea Conaboy, author of Mother Brain, shares that this transformation into new parenthood has a scientific basis, affecting mothers and all individuals caring for an infant. The brain is being rewired for nurturing. She will share her scientific research on why the brain undergoes profound changes and expose the flaws perpetuated by the myth that mothering is solely a woman's domain, known as "maternal instinct." In truth, these changes occur in anyone responsible for the ongoing care of a baby. Get ready to discover the science behind the shift in all our brains, regardless of gender or parental role.   IN THIS EPISODE: [3:03] Chelsea shares what drove her to write the book Mother Brain [6:36] Chelsea discusses the concept of maternal instinct versus the science of the brain when you become a parent [13:10] Discussion of the research in this field [18:13] What advice would Chelsea give to a new parent? She describes the guilt she experienced when she had her son [23:26] Chelsea dives into when you should seek help for your feelings and what she would change in our culture [29:36] There is an impact on the entire family dynamic when a baby comes into the home, affecting even the relationships you have with other parents [35:09] Chelsea would like to see more research in the area of fathers, non gestational parents and social policy  [38:01] Chelsea stresses that when you need help, ask for it, and a discussion of solo parenting and the shame they endure [45:18] Discussion of how the human brain has developed over time, Chelsea's view of family and how her research has informed her parenting   KEY TAKEAWAYS: The maternal instinct theory has been passed down through generations trying to explain what goes on within the brain of a woman who has a child or cares for a child.  Two things shape the parental brain. One is hormones, and the other is experience. Babies are such powerful stimuli for the brain that anyone caring for them also experiences hormonal changes. The bottom line for parents is that having a newborn is a process. It is hard, and that is normal. Accept that your brain changes when you commit to caring for an infant. Don't feel guilty if you struggle with how you feel inside.      RESOURCE LINKS: Stork'd - Facebook Stork'd - Instagram Stork'd - YouTube  Chelsea Conaboy - Website Mother Brain Book Chelsea Conaboy - Instagram   BIOGRAPHY: Chelsea Conaboy I am a health and science journalist.

The huge changes that occur during pregnancy have been felt by people for millennia, but it's only in recent years that we've had data to back those feelings up.

Ever wondered if the so-called "maternal instinct" is a scientific reality or a societal construct? Join guest host Monica Cardenas as she delves into the fascinating world of neuroscience with Chelsea Conaboy, author of Mother Brain: How Neuroscience is Rewriting the Story of Parenthood. Together, they explore the intricate changes in parents' brains and debunking myths surrounding motherhood. Chelsea makes the argument for how understanding the science behind parental brain changes can relieve pressure on new parents, foster patience, and promote equal participation in caregiving, breaking away from traditional gender roles. She envisions a narrative that embraces the transformative aspects of parenthood while acknowledging the complexities and challenges that come with it. Some topics we cover include: The historical context of maternal instinct, revealing its roots in moral and religious ideas How hormonal changes and caregiving experiences shape the parental brain, challenging the idea of innate caregiving Scientific research that shows similar neurobiological changes in fathers and non-gestational parents The role of women in science and their contribution to reshaping societal perceptions The need to recognize new parenthood as a developmental stage, calling for changes in healthcare, policies, and societal perspectives Transcription is available here Buy Mother Brain: How Neuroscience is Rewriting the Story of Parenthood -- Become a Patron for access to bonus content and to support the podcast, or buy me a (metaphorical) coffee Follow us: Instagram | Twitter | Facebook | Tik Tok | Youtube | LinkedIn Subscribe to our newsletter for a weekly dose of all things WOMAN We need more women's stories in the world!. If you've enjoyed this episode,  please share, subscribe, rate and review on Apple, Spotify or wherever you listen to your podcasts Explore The Story of Woman book recommendations in the US and the UK - purchases support the podcast AND local bookstores

Chelsea Conaboy is a  journalist specializing in personal and public health. Her recent book, Mother Brain, is now available in paperback. Her book is a thoughtful and well researched discussion of the emerging neuroscience about the brain changes that occur as a result of becoming a parent. In addition, she offers an incise critique about the concept of "Maternal Instinct" and how it is fundamentally flawed and inaccurate.https://www.nytimes.com/2022/08/26/opinion/sunday/maternal-instinct-myth.html This is a major developmental period and transition which is actually similar in magnitude to the changes that occur in adolescence.  However, this sensitive developmental transition has not received the attention and recognition that truly deserves. Chelsea Conaboy has corrected this imbalance with her highly readable and thoughtful book     

My guest is the journalist and writer Chelsea Conaboy, author of the fantastic book Mother Brain, which challenges the repressive notion of ‘maternal instinct'.  As she shows, "humans are designed to develop into cooperative caregivers!"

Here, in EPISODE 100 of the podcast, it seems fitting that CHELSEA CONABOY shares so many insights about how parenting changes parent's brains. *She talks about how Maternal Instinct is a story, not based on science* She describes research on these brain changes and what they might mean for our health* She talks about how our repeated efforts to check on our newborns, even before we really know how to care for them, is a reflection of some of these changes independent of mood disorders. Listening to her and reading her book paints a really stark picture that contrasts the stories we tell about postpartum and what the science actually shows.

Portland Press Herald Food and Books Editor Peggy Grodinsky sat down with Chelsea Conaboy to chat about her newest book, that draws on the latest neuroscience and social psychology and weaves it together with new reporting to tell a powerful new narrative of parenthood. Conaboy talks about the myth of maternal instinct, how parenthood changes the brain for the long haul, and what it all means for our social policies, our understanding of caregiving broadly and our sense of ourselves during a live "Maine Voices Live" at the Portland Museum of Art. Chelsea Conaboy is a health and science journalist. She was part of the Boston Globe's Pulitzer Prize–winning team for coverage of the Boston Marathon bombing, and she was features editor at the Portland Press Herald/Maine Sunday Telegram for three years. Her work has been published by The New York Times, The Guardian, Mother Jones, Politico, the Boston Globe Magazine, WBUR, The Philadelphia Inquirer and others. Her first book, Mother Brain: How Neuroscience Is Rewriting the Story of Parenthood, has been called “a game-changer” and is set to be published in 20 countries.

Chelsea Conaboy has delved deep into forbidden territory with MOTHER BRAIN. With unflinching examination of her experience of parenting and of what neuroscience, tradition, and others have to share, Conaboy describes the myriad profound changes that occur in men and women in raising a child. In this week's episode, Chelsea is kind enough to sit through my fan-girling as we discuss her text about the changes a brain goes through for everyone during pregnancy, the stigma and struggles that occur during this intense period of learning, the research that is being done to unlock the mysteries and fallacies of the Mother Brain.

Guest host Allison Pataki interviews health and science journalist Chelsea Conaboy about her groundbreaking and myth-busting new book Mother Brain: How Neuroscience Is Rewriting the Story of Parenthood. Chelsea analyzes the postpartum experience–a time of distress, adaptation, and powerful neurological and hormonal shifts for parents. She also dismantles the dangerous myth of maternal instinct and outlines the sociopolitical areas that desperately need reform in the United States. Finally, she describes her research and writing process and shares her best advice for aspiring authors.

Why do so many mothers struggle with new parenthood if the maternal instinct is supposed to "kick in" and tell us all exactly what to do? In her new book Mother Brain: How Neuroscience Is Rewriting the Story of Parenthood, Chelsea Conaboy cracks the myth of the maternal instinct wide open. In this episode, Chelsea explains: How caring for a baby changes the brain of both biological and nonbiological parents, both gestational and non-gestational, and for far longer than we realize Why the traditional view of "baby blues" falls far short of what new parents need Why the parent-child bond is a two-way street, and how each of our children changes our brains further How we can use this new science to improve outcomes for all parents Here's where you can find Chelsea: Website: motherbrainbook.com Twitter: @cconaboy IG: @chelsea.wonder Special thanks to our sponsors for this month: For trusted protection, choose Pampers, the #1 Pediatrician Recommended Brand.

It took Nintendo another decade to bring together a cast like this!

LANGUAGE IN THIS EPISODE IS NSFW! DO NOT LISTEN OUT LOUD OR AROUND YOUNGER LISTENERS! What's up Omega Metroid fans! This week, we've got something waaay different than usual – in fact, it's not even a proper episode of the Omega Metroid Podcast! Andy is away for the Zelda Dungeon Marathon, Dak is out of town casting, and Doom is tied up this week as well, so instead of leaving you guys empty handed, we figured we'd treat you to a previously PATREON LOCKED bonus episode of Andy's video game movie podcast, Virtual Theater. The bonus episode is all about Captain N and the Game Master, the crazy 80's Nintendo cartoon where Kevin, aka Captain N, and his dog Duke are sucked into Video Game Land, where they do battle with the evil Mother Brain on the planet Metroid. This series is crazy, the depiction of Mother Brain is wild, and we had a whole lot of fun covering this specific episode, “Mr. and Mrs. Mother Brain”, where, you guessed it, Mother Brain gets married! Enjoy something a little different and if you liked this episode, consider supporting Virtual Theater on Patreon!

Women belong in gaming, period. And when we say "women" by that we mean "brains". And when we say "in gaming" we really mean "in jars, deep in outer space". Regardless we support them. On today's bonus episode we take an in-depth look at one of the most important female figures in videogame history - Mother Brain from 1986's NES classic 'Metroid'.

Chris & Kelsey give off good vibes and talk in a very positive manner about plants—but are sure not to feed them! The Classic Film: Little Shop of Horrors (1986) "A nerdy florist finds his chance for success and romance with the help of a giant man-eating plant who demands to be fed” (IMDb.com). Little Shop of Horrors is wonderful and joyous and great and shut up if you don't like it. The Modern Film: The Happening (2008) "A science teacher, his wife, and a young girl struggle to survive a plague that causes those infected to commit suicide” (IMDb.com). The Happening is famously maligned as confirmation that M. Night Shyamalan's promising star had faded. You could argue that the wooden acting and silly-but-melodramatic premise are an intentional homage to 50s B-movies, but if that's the case, Shyamalan didn't go hard enough.

Our heroes venture into Neo-Bulwark to elude the Mother Brain. How far will the team go to protect their home?

In the reaches of space, below the surface of planet Plagiarism, Joe and Matt faced video games. They destroyed their operation, wiped out the parasites called gamers, and defeated Mother Brain. But the games were far from finished… Because they still have like 40 of them left on their list. One of those games is Smashterpiece #41: Metroid Prime, one of the very few first-person shooters on our list. No matter how much we try, the games remain, so at least this time we've dragged another into this pit with us. Joining us this week to talk about lava worms and chozo ghosts and 3D maps and statistically probably some kind of metroid is George Hyde AKA SuperDQP! How do we feel about the various areas of Tallon IV? How successful is this game's exploration based design when compared to the 2D games in the series? What the hell does it mean when somebody says they wish Samus could wear different heads? All this and more in today's episode!Join us next time as we sail the open seas to save our sister in Smashterpieces #42: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker

All sorts of shirking happen inside an Amazon warehouse, including impromptu basketball games tossing customer packages. But there are also associates who inspire, with their dedication and drive.

It's the first episode of our new spin-off show, Retronomicon, where we cover older games, including classics and unfairly neglected games. To kick things off with a bang, we discuss Nintendo's Metroid series, all the way back to the original 1986 Metroid up to and including Metroid: Dread. We talk about our earliest Metroid memories, the lore of the series (and if it really matters), the sexism surrounding Samus, environmental storytelling, how it compares to the Alien series, our feelings about Dread, and much more! Come for the super missiles and stay for Mother Brain!For more Metroid goodness, read Christian Haines' “Ode to the Morph Ball”!

THE LAST METROID IS IN CAPTIVITY. The Galaxy is at peace. The greatest of all bounty hunters, Samus Aran, has eradicated the Metroid species - save for a single infant delivered to the care of the Galactic Research Station at Ceres. Yet peace is short lived, as soon Ridley and his Space Pirates steal the infant metroid to bring it back to… Zebes.. .where Mother Brain plans to… engineer the metro- wait, is this a remake of Metroid (1986)? Thank you to James Shuar, @luministmusic for allowing us to use his music in the intro and outro!

We're putting you in the drivers seat for this weeks show, as we're tackling a whole bunch of fan submitted questions about Dread and Metroid in general! How might the melee counters work in a Metroid Prime game? What was our favorite and least favorite new ability in Dread? Could Raven Beak have been working with Mother Brain at any point? What changes should a Super Metroid remake have? What other studio should get a crack at 2D Metroid? Does Dread have a chance at winning Game of the Year at the big shows? All this and so much more!

Phantasy Star II, "Phantasy Star II: At the End of the Restoration") is a science fantasy role-playing video game developed and published by Sega for the Sega Genesis. It was released in Japan in 1989, North America in 1990, and in Europe in 1990. It was later ported to a variety of different platforms. An updated remake, Phantasy Star Generation 2, was released for the PlayStation 2 in 2005 in Japan. Phantasy Star II is the second installment in Sega's acclaimed Phantasy Star series and serves as a sequel to the original Phantasy Star for the Master System. Phantasy Star II takes place 1,000 years after the events of its predecessor and follows the journey of a government agent named Rolf and his friends, who are on a mission to discover why the protector of the planet Mota, Mother Brain, has started malfunctioning. Phantasy Star II was the first video game to use a 6 mega-bit cartridge, making it the biggest video game on a console at the time. Since its release Phantasy Star II has been the subject of critical acclaim.

With Metroid Dread approaching, the Beat of the Month crew decide to take a look at where the series all began. We dust off our NES controllers (OK not really...we played on Switch) and take a journey through Samus' first expedition to foil the space pirates' plans. We talk about the good, the bad, and the Ridley as well as how revolutionary this early NES game was and the impact it still has. We also cap things off with some Metroid series trivia that really tests the crew's (Mother) Brain. Next week we go further in our journey with a deep dive on Super Metroid - so please join us now and in one week as we prepare for the imminent arrival of Metroid Dread!

IN this episode, Chris and Mark look back at Nintendo’s first foray into original characters, licensing issues, and the practicalities of wearing a NES controller as a belt buckle.

Today is a quick introductory chat about the amazing changes that your brain goes through when you are pregnant, to prep you for motherhood.   Like... did you even know that? This chat is inspired by the works of Dr Sarah McKay, as I've just completed her In Her Brain course.   Enjoy the listen, and season 2.

Jeremy got that vaccine fever (horny for vaccines) for a few days, so we decided to take a week off, in fear that an extra loopy episode could turn our upcoming Part 3 into a 4-Parter. Woof. So here's an oldie from the Captain N days!  Pat from Castle Super Beast joins the podcast to talk about how goddamn fucked up Captain N: The Game Master is! Simon Belmont shoots himself in the ass with a love arrow, accidentally forcing him to fall in love with Mother Brain. Meanwhile, Mega Man and Kid Icarus meet another deeply fucked up cow. But most importantly, the gang fights, for about 5 seconds, Mr. Bones — a cool 80s skeleton man wearing a skeleton shirt. Mr. Bones fuckin rules, you guys. You're gonna love Mr. Bones.

It's time to take on Mother Brain again, but this time it's personal. I mean it seemed pretty personal the first time, but now it's personal-er. Keith and Jesse talk Super Metroid with Matteo Lane, who has a very good secret. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In one of the show's most disturbing episodes to date, Mother Brain tricks Captain N and his team into thinking that they murdered her (and they celebrate it), Kevin holds a gun to Eggplant Wizard's head (who pleads for his life and shows a picture of his wife and two kids), Simon keeps hitting on Princess Lana (who keeps saying no), and Mark and Jeremy go on an extended riff about the times they've broken their keys.

Mark and Jeremy's war of (redacted) words continues on the Captain N Wiki page, in a saga that has grown too sprawling to be contained by a single podcast. Once everyone settles down, this is a weird episode of Captain N, with no Eggplant Wizard or Mother Brain in sight. What we do get is bizarro versions of everyone, stolen Monty Python bits, and a totally sick and twisted world where everything is opposite, meaning people wear their clothes dirty and otherwise act pretty normal.  

Struggle Session's Leslie Lee III joins the podcast for this episode of Captain N that features exactly zero references to Freddy Kreuger. Mother Brain puts Princess Lana into a deep sleep by tricking her to eat a poison apple on account of her being too pretty, prompting Simon and Kevin to compete to see who can kiss her out of it first. We also get a glimpse into Kevin's worst nightmare when he is sent to the Nightmare Zone: being forced to reenter normal society after the horrifying video game war he has been forced to participate in.

Gweetings, Paisanos! On this week's Captain N, Mother Brain hatches a plan to make, rig, and win a fake video game olympics in Videoland so that she can steal some treasure or something. This episode features Mega Man learning how to throw a shot put, Donkey Kong and Eggplant Wizard forming a tag team, Dracula and Simon Belmont having a ski race, and it's only part one of a cliffhanger! To the wadar woom!

Link to bioRxiv paper: http://biorxiv.org/cgi/content/short/2020.05.31.125955v1?rss=1 Authors: Shimon-Raz, O., Salomon, R., Bloch, M., Aisenberg Romano, G., Hendler, T., Yeshurun, Y., Ulmer Yaniv, A., Zagoory-Sharon, O., Feldman, R. Abstract: Reorganization of the maternal brain, primed by oxytocin surge during childbirth, triggers the species-typical maternal social behavior. These brief social moments carry profound effects on the infant's social brain and likely have a distinct signature in the maternal brain. Utilizing a double-blind, oxytocin/placebo administration crossover design, we imaged mothers twice while observing three naturalistic maternal-infant contexts in the home ecology; "unavailable", "unresponsive", and "social", when mothers engaged in synchronous pick-a-boo play. We found four processes by which mother's brain registers social moments. Salience - social moments increased activations throughout the maternal brain network; Brain-behavior coupling - caregiving behavior linked with socially-driven neural response; Oxytocin sensitivity - administration impacted neural response mainly to the social context; and Temporal engrams-consistent temporal patterns in insula and TP characterized response to social play. Findings describe how mother's brain compiles and amplifies these precious social moments to generate dyad-specific brain-behavior patterns that initiate the cross-generational transmission of human sociality.

The Ice Five walk towards the Mother Brain, slowly realizing that "The Ice Five" has now expanded into a conglomerate of shady inter-planar horrors and they are about to meet with its leader, whom they accidentally installed. Also, it feels like there's something we should acknowledge… numerically speaking.

The Ice Five have arrived on the seaside. Their goal is to reconvene with the Mother Brain and pick up a new boat, as Dargthur is keen to get back into Admiral mode. Hopefully they'll find a safe ride and get on board quickly and efficiently!

The 1987 NES game Metroid introduced vast levels, amazing power-ups, and a Mother Brain. We ignore almost all of that in this episode of RETRO REPLAY and focus our attention on things like Anoose's life goals of running for government. But there is a special reappearance of Ghost'N Goblins where Nolan predictably becomes a bag of bones while Troy goes deep into the lore of the 1977 TV show Fantasy Island and channels his best Ricardo Montalbán.

In this episode of Cheerful Ghost Radio, we're continuing our NES Classic reviews with Metroid! Released in 1986, Metroid puts you in control of Samus, fighting through aliens on the planet Zebes, and taking on Mother Brain. Metroid has spawned numerous sequels, and along with Castlevania started the "Metroidvania" subgenre of action-adventure games.

Today’s broadcast is C1E29 for Scene Sunday, May 27th 2018. Today’s Episode will feature the Metroid soundtrack for NES performed entirely on 70's era analog synthesizers by Chiptune and remix scenester "Luminist" on a program we're calling "VCO Metroid" - a Fun-Sized episode. Original compositions by Hirokazu (Hip) Tanaka.   01: Intro - 00:00 02: Title Theme - 02:24 03: Samus Fanfare - 04:49 04: Brinstar - 04:59 05: Item Room - 06:47 06: Item Fanfare - 07:48 07: Kraid's Lair - 07:56 08: Norfair - 09:50 09: Ridley's Lair - 11:15 10: Tourian - 12:47 11: Mother Brain - 13:49 12: Escape - 14:25 13: Ending - 16:14 14: Outro - 18:30   Music Block Runtime: 16:08, Total Episode Runtime: 23:10   Our Intro and Outro Music is Funky Radio - Jet Grind Radio - Dreamcast - BB Rights   If you wish to subscribe to the "Noise from the Hearts of Nerds" podcast - audio-only, there are two options:   Option 1: Subscribe right here to the "Nerd Noise Radio Network - All Channels" podcast feed. Feed will include Channels 1, 2, 3, and any future channels not yet planned. Feed will also include podcasts in high quality, stereo where applicable, and episodes will never expire off the feed. Therefore it is STRONGLY recommended that you subscribe to this Nerd Noise Radio feed and bypass all others. This one will contain all their content anyway.   Option 2: If you're ONLY interested in Channel 1 ("Noise from the Hearts of Nerds") episodes, and not in any of the other content that is or will be offered by Nerd Noise Radio, there is a Channel 1-specific feed. But it's hosted on a free account, rather than an upgraded account like the "All Channels Feed" with lower quality sound (mono, I believe), a maximum 2hrs per month of content (so if the month's episodes run longer than that, they may need to be trimmed), and episodes expire off the feed forever after 90 days. It is STRONGLY recommended for most listeners to subscribe to the All-Channels feed instead. However, if you really are only interested in Channel 1 content, here's the RSS:    http://www.buzzsprout.com/77944.rss   Our episodes will also appear on our Nerd Noise Radio YouTube Channel - just search for Nerd Noise Radio, you'll find us!

Busy day in the small colleges on the dual meet side of things, I’m in New York, so after checking out the Kentucky-Monmouth game, I saw some boxing, the Rangers and the Devils and a bunch of drunken Santas stumbling through Manhattan. Seriously. I saw college hoops, the NHL and pro boxing all in the same day in the same venue. The Ukrainian boxer made the Cuban quit. Craziness. Before I start, Brian Williams, and probably not the former newsman, corrected me on my Gannon reference the other day. I mistakenly said Gannon was from Metroid, well, that’s all jacked up. My childhood memories are crap. Gannon was from Zelda. And since I never played Zelda and was confusing it from the Nintendo commercial so many years ago, I call shenanigans. Anyway, the evil boss in Metroid was Mother Brain. Coach Paul Keysaw and Fresno City College won the school’s 15th state championship as the Rams claimed four titles to outdistance second-place Mt. San Antonio 184-152. Brandon Betencourt, Isaiah Perez, Aaron Mora and Dylan Martinez won titles at 125 through 149 while five other Rams placed in the top eight to claim Fresno City’s second straight championship. Lock Haven won the PSAC Championships for the 20th time, but it was the first time in 17 years since they’d done it. The Bald Eagles were led by champions Ronnie Perry at 149, Chance Marsteller at 165, Corey Hazel at 184 and Thomas Haines at heavyweight. Lock Haven scored 156 points, followed by Clarion in second with 122 and Edinboro in third with 120.5. Pitt-Johnstown was fourth, the top non-Division I finish of the 12-team field. Only thing really notable out of the UNI Open was Iowa’s Spencer Lee entered and dominated. Results on Trackwrestling.com, video on Flo. Campbellsville won its third straight NAIA Women’s Invitational and crowned six champions. While not entirely comprised of every NAIA school with a women’s team, it’s a fledgling event that could be the precursor to an officially sponsored NAIA national championship event. No. 19 Wisconsin cruised past Division III UW-Whitewater 38-3. Nothing really to go into, it’s what big brother does to little brother. Wyoming reeled off four wins in the last five weights to get past Iowa State 24-14 to open up Big 12 action. Wins by Branson Ashworth, Kyle Pope, Chaz Polson and Cody Vigoren gave Wyoming the leg up, if that is such a rodeo reference. If not, my apologies to fellow announcer and rodeo legend Boyd Polhamus. Of note, Iowa State’s Jakob Allison, a guy the Cyclones pulled off the club team in Ames, earned a fall at 125 pounds. Pretty cool story there. In Division II, No. 23 Mary and coach Adam Aho picked up one of the program’s biggest wins since it moved to NCAA Division II with a 21-19 win over ninth-ranked Upper Iowa. Wins down the stretch by Phillip Springsteen and Austin Eichmann were clutch for the Marauders. Springsteen’s fall at 165 was crucial. Eichmann’s major at 174 put the dual out of reach. In Division III, fourth-ranked Johnson & Wales carved up the competition and cooked up three wins -- beating Niagara 46-4, Oneonta State 48-3 and Cortland State 45-12. Lonnie Morris is probably hanging red stockings for Christmas. Some of you might get that. WPI went 3-0 defeating Niagara Community College and a pair of Red Dragons. The Engineers beat Niagara 40-8 before beating No. 16 Cortland State 36-6 and Oneonta State 27-19. Both Cortland and Oneonta are named the Red Dragons. Seriously. Shout out to you Jason Ellis -- if you know who that is, more power to you. No. 9 Baldwin Wallace went 3-0 on the road at Waynesburg. Jamie Gibbs’ Yellowjackets topped Penn State Behrend 45-3, the Newport News Apprentice School 39-7 and No. 24 Waynesburg 23-10. Buena Vista beat St. Olaf 41-9. Marian, a second-year program, picked up its most successful day of its young history by going 4-0 at the Indiana Tech Warrior Duals, including a 26-19 win over third-ranked Indiana Tech. Fire it up coach Steven Bradley Snow caused problems across the southeast as the Williams Baptist Duals were canceled in Arkansas, as was the Brewton-Parker tri meet in Georgia.

TurtleCOM TURNS 1!!! Coincidentally, DAlex busts out the ol’ Sand-filled, Mariachi Egg while TFTS makes the world’s longest TMNT DVD box opening. Colleen Evanson returns with quips and cracks a plenty to help sire in Lady Becky Sanders to the fold. Nobody sings Happy Birthday this time, but there’s loads of songs and pop cultural references flung about. Splinter seemed like he’d never return from the human surface world last time, but Mother Brain from Dimension STOP has Master Yoshi chiming in, “Au contraire, kemo sabe!”

So as has been the case as of late, Skype has failed us this podcast. That doesn't mean that there isn't a podcast for you all this week, but it does mean that the very beginning (about 5 min) of the podcast was lost, as well as a bit in the middle. Sorry folks, we at the Infendo Towers are looking for a solution, and hopefully our next show will go off without a hitch.
