My initial thought was to find information about  William Shakespeare's mother, Mary Arden.  I was curious as to the role she played or didn't play in her son's life.  That search led me to Shakespearian expert and Columbia University English Professor, James Shapiro.  His initial responses was, "your podcast will last about 30 seconds because we don't know much about her."  That said, he mentioned that he and his  brother Michael, also a professor at Columbia University (Graduate School of Journalism), would be interested in sharing stories about their mother who had also been a teacher.  Both brothers agree that their mother  "was the greatest teacher ever."  Unfortunately Lorraine had a very unhappy childhood. She was her father's daughter. The youngest of three children with two older brothers, Lorraine and her mom didn't see eye to eye. Therefore Lorraine lacked self confidence when at home, confronted by her mother. Out of this fractured relationship, Lorraine found a world full of fantasy and boundless imagination with her students. James says  " mom was a pathological fantasist. She believed that every child should have a dream." "Because of her unhappy childhood, continues Michael, she decided to recreate the world by sheer force of imagination and will."Mrs. Shapiro devoted her life to her family- her husband,  Herb, of 65 years, her children and her students. She  always told her children  that they were  accomplished and that they were going to succeed. That didn't mean that she didn't push them to work harder and do better- perhaps as Michael says "she sent mixed signals sometimes."During our conversation,  James and Michael share what a brilliant baker their mother was and how hard she worked to have fresh baked individual goodies ready for them each morning before running out the door to teach. However, when it came to main meals/dinner entrees, let's just say that wasn't her strong point.  Lorraine was  a teacher before she met her future husband.  Once  married, Lorraine's mother pressured her to quit while she was starting a family, insisting that is was completely unacceptable for her to work and raise a family at the same time.  It was 11 years before Lorraine got back to the classroom. Something that her son's know was very hard for their mother, not because she didn't love her family, it was overwhelmingly clear that their mother needed to be in the classroom with her  first graders. "It wasn't accidental that she was happiest with little kids, first graders especially. They know how to dream, they know how to play and they are perfectly happy to buy into her fantasy world," says James."Both sons love teaching and confess that they are the same kind of teacher that their mother was. They both take her into the classroom with them each day. They adore their mother, her passion and her spark and speak regularly of her magic, wisdom and  charm. "What she represented was strength" continues Michael emphatically. Lorraine may have been petite, but her dreams were big.James Shapiro-his work has made it to the NY Times Top 10 Books of 2020 list. He's a professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University, distinguished authority on William Shakespeare, Former Board Member, now Govenor of Royal Shakespeare Company and he is the Shakespeare Scholar in Residence at the Public Theatre in New York.Michael Shapiro-Professor at Columbia Univ Graduate School of Journalism, He's written for newspapers in New Jersey and Chicago as well as magazine publications, such as Sports Illustrated, The New Yorker, The NY Times Magazine and more.  the author of Bottom of the Ninth and The Last Good Season: Brooklyn, the Dodgers, and Their Final Pennant Race Together plus author of 5 previous books.   "Should Have Listened To My Mother" is an ongoing conversation about mothers/female role models and the roles they play in our lives.

MLB & NFL Preseason Picks, Predictions and Best Bets | Bet With Ace for Wednesday, August 7, 2024Known in the sports betting industry as Ace, Vegas-Runner, & Gianni the Greek, professional sports bettor & handicapper Gianni Karalis has been known as one of the most esteemed movers in Las Vegas for over 20 years. VR broke into the industry as a bookmaker in Philadelphia in the late 1980's and by the mid-90's he was moving steam with the most profitable and respected betting syndicates at that time. Information was not as readily available back then and the multiple wiseguys these groups bet for won at a rate unimaginable by today's long-term winners.The problem back then wasn't gaining access to more wiseguys or even getting money down on the plays, it was getting paid. Bookmakers were becoming harder to find and less eager to pay once they realized they weren't going to get their money back, so the obvious move was to head out to Las Vegas where at least you were guaranteed to get paid on a winning bet.Ace started out stationed as a runner at the Stardust Race & Sports Book which at the time was the center of the universe for sports betting. They took pride in putting out the opening lines for everything, and were willing to take a nice sized bet even from the sharpest of bettors. His job was to wait for "buy orders" that came via two-way radios and then get down as much money as possible at the desired price. Eventually the offshore sports book industry exploded and the game was changed forever on how wiseguys used betting syndicates to get their action down.Though he had nothing to promote, Gianni was a guest on the famous Stardust Line radio show due to his reputation for being a runner for many of the most respected wiseguys. Almost all the other guests were "pick sellers" and the opportunity for him to sell his information arose and Vegas-Runner was born.The experience was like nothing Ace had expected and he was afforded a front row seat to the "pick selling" industry. He offered his service to a few different sites and saw many good and bad practices and habits. During that experience VR could be heard on local and national ESPN, FOX, CBS, Yahoo radio and more. He's been seen and featured on a CNBC sports betting special, a NY Times Magazine expose on sports betting, "The Best of It" sports betting documentary, monthly on the UFC on FS1 Pre-fight Show., and more. He's also written for Gaming Today and many other publications and newspapers through the years.2018 marks Gianni the Greek's "5th" straight documented year of beating the books and turning a profit over a statistically significant sample size. Like Ace says, "I can't guarantee I'll win for you over every sample size because there's a lot of randomness to small ones, but over a statistically significant sample size there's nothing your bookie can do to stop you from taking his money if you manage your bankroll correctly".There are very few bettors in Ace's position, with access to respected and profitable wiseguys & betting syndicates daily. There are very few bettors with the experience and knowledge to determine "set-ups", "numbers moves", & "middle attempts" from "REAL MOVES" like VR can. And there are even fewer bettors with those abilities who are willing to share it, like Gianni does.From the most seasoned and big bettors, to the newest and smaller ones, Gianni will tell you with certainty what the most profitable bettors in every sport have the most money on every day...making you a mathematical certainty to be in the 1% of bettors who win long-term.

Description: Co-host Ryan Piansky, a graduate student and patient advocate living with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) and eosinophilic asthma, and co-host Holly Knotowicz, a speech-language pathologist living with EoE, who serves on APFED's Health Sciences Advisory Council, speak with Moises Velasquez-Manoff, a health and science writer living with EoE. He is a contributing writer for the New York Times Magazine. He writes about the human microbiome and its impact on health, as well as climate, COVID-19, and other health and science topics. In this episode, Ryan and Hollyinterview Moises Velasquez-Manoff about his New York Times Magazine article and his search for help with his burning esophagus. They discuss his journey living with EoE, how he got diagnosed, and the treatments that help manage his symptoms. Moises speaks of various misdiagnoses he received that didn't address his issues. After reflux was ruled out by a series of three tests, a biopsy during an endoscopy indicated EoE. Now on treatment, Moises is feeling much better.    Listen in for a powerful story of a decades-long search for help.

Opinions and views of guests and co-hosts are their own.   Key Takeaways: [:50] Co-host Ryan Piansky welcomes co-host Holly Knotowicz. Holly introduces Moises Velasquez-Manoff, a health and science writer living with eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE). He recently wrote  an article that was published in NY Times Magazine entitled, “The Mystery of My Burning Esophagus,” in which he documented his journey and diagnosis of EoE.   [1:51] Eosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is a rare chronic allergic inflammatory disease of the esophagus. It is part of a complex group of diseases known as eosinophilic gastrointestinal disorders or EGIDs.   [2:05] Approximately one out of 2,000 people of all ages and ethnic backgrounds [in the U.S] are diagnosed with EoE, and people with EoE commonly have other allergic diseases, such as rhinitis, asthma, or eczema.   [2:20] Moises has had asthma for as long as he can remember. It was worse when he was a child and he sort of grew out of it. In adulthood, it was exercise-induced asthma. He has been allergic to sesame and peanuts for his whole life. They make him vomit. He has had eczema, hay fever, and alopecia areata. [3:43] Moises has had problems with his esophagus since his 20s. He is 49 now and only got diagnosed with EoE about two years ago after his burning pain became very bad. It took about a year to rule out reflux, first by using high-dose proton pump inhibitors (PPIs). While on the medication, he still felt the horrible burning pain. He also had unusually bad side effects from the PPIs.   [5:25] After eight weeks of PPIs, an endoscopy showed his symptoms were almost gone. Moises believed he had reflux, but he still had the burning. His gastroenterologist suggested an alternative diagnosis, esophageal hypersensitivity, a pain syndrome from years of inflammation.    [8:21] Moises went to a second doctor who was an expert on EoE. They did a series of tests to rule out reflux. He did the Bravo PH test or reflux, a peristalsis test, a tube that was left in for 48 hours, and a barium swallow test. Each test was uncomfortable. These tests ruled out reflux.   [12:11] The doctor then believed it was esophageal hypersensitivity. The treatment was Cymbalta, an anti-depressant that also dampens pain signals. Moises was able to start eating again and started putting on weight that he had lost. A year after he stopped taking the PPIs, an endoscopy gave him the diagnosis of EoE.   [15:48] Reading Moises's article triggered many memories and emotions for Holly. She experienced symptoms since she was a baby and saw around 13 specialists before she received a diagnosis of EoE in her early 20s. By that time her eosinophil levels were out of control and her esophagus was so rigid she needed several dilations. [18:01] Moises had seen a gastroenterologist for reflux years ago and then two more doctors to get his EoE diagnosis. It was extreme pain that influenced him to seek the diagnosis. He also saw an ENT about sinus headaches, and he believes they were related to his EoE. He finally went to a doctor that specializes in EoE, just in case.   [23:08] Today, Moises manages his EoE with an off-label use of the asthma medicine budesonide taken twice a day. He mixes the solution into honey and drinks it, the honey helps the medicine stick to his esophagus. Moises worries about potential side effects as it is a steroid but at small doses.   [25:32] Ryan has taken the systemic steroids hydrocortisone and prednisone, as topical steroids were not effective for him. He was also on a restricted diet throughout his childhood. The diets didn't clear up his EoE; the only thing that helped was high-dose steroids until he began taking a biologic after being diagnosed with eosinophilic asthma.    [28:56] The treatment Moises is taking for EoE is localized. There shouldn't be any systemic effect. He believes if he took a biologic, he may see improvements in his other allergic conditions, such as eczema and his sinus condition.   [27:17] When his esophageal burning feeling was at its worst, Moises felt like he was suffocating. Doctors couldn't explain it to him, but a research scientist told him that sometimes problems in one internal organ, like the esophagus, can confuse the brain stem, so it reads the problem as coming from another organ, like the lungs or the heart.   [29:23] What helped with Moises's gasping attacks was the neuromodulating medicine, the anti-depressant, which changed how the nervous system perceives what's happening, lowered the ability for pain signals to be transmitted, and calmed his nerves.   [30:53] Ryan talks about drugs being prescribed off-label when there is anecdotal evidence that they can improve symptoms of other disorders. Some EoE patients use the asthma medicine budesonide as a topical treatment of the esophagus. It is mixed into a slurry with Splenda and swallowed. Dupilumab was originally approved to treat eczema and has recently been approved to treat EoE.   [31:40] Ryan is on benralizumab, a biologic, for eosinophilic asthma but as a side effect, it has also been  helping his EoE. He doesn't need systemic steroids anymore for his EoE. After seeing positive benefits from the biologic, he weaned off the steroids. His parents, who are doctors and involved in APFED, helped him through the process.   [34:40] Moises tells how he came to write the article for New York Times Magazine. While he was suffering, he was not considering writing about it. When he finally got his diagnosis and was feeling better, he read an article another science writer published about their journey with a pain condition and was inspired to help other people by writing about his own journey. His first draft  was more intense than the finished piece.   [37:09] Holly describes the article as very powerful. She felt she was going through it with Moises. She could feel what he was describing as he searched for answers. She appreciates him writing it. Moises says people have written to him from around the world that related to his story.   [40:43] Some even asked Moises about where they could find an EoE specialists, and Ryan mentions APFED's Specialist Finder. To find a specialist who treats eosinophilic disorders, go to APFED.org/specialists. Also, please check out Moises's article in these show notes.   [41:19] As a science writer, Moises has written a lot about the microbiome and its relationship to allergic disease and autoimmune disease before he noticed that this was happening to him. He had written a book, An Epidemic of Absence, 11 years ago about the root cause of these debilitating disorders and why allergies are increasing.   [42:51] Moises believes that the human microbiome has been impoverished by our modern environment and diets and that has led to an increased risk of allergic conditions. Moises gives the example of European farmers, who live in a rich microbial environment and have fewer allergic and autoimmune conditions.   [44:39] Moises says the research also shows that antibiotics early in life increase the risk of asthma, EoE, inflammatory bowel disease, and colon cancer. The more you take, the greater your risk. They have done research with animals, knocking out key microbes and seeing an increase in these diseases.   [45:33] H. Pylori is associated with ulcers and stomach cancer, but everyone used to have it, and it is common in the developing world. Research indicates that h. pylori changes how your immune system works. Unless you kill it with antibiotics, you have it for the rest of your life. If you have h. pylori, your EoE risk goes down.   [46:32] If you are breastfed, that also reduces your risk of EoE. Breastfeeding is thought to cultivate a healthy colony of microbes in the infant's gut. Moises credits the microbial deprivation hypothesis for the increase of allergies and autoimmune disorders. There won't be a treatment for microbial deprivation anytime soon.   [47:18] Holly and Ryan thank Moises Velasquez-Manoff for coming on the podcast and allowing them to interview him today about his patient experience and background. Moises thinks it's crazy how much good evidence there is that EoE has increased in prevalence. Unpublished results show that EoE incidence is approaching 1 in 1,000.   [48:45] To learn more about eosinophilic esophagitis, visit apfed.org/eoe. To find a specialist, visit apfed.org/specialists. Ryan recommends reading Moises's article.

Guest:Freddie de BoerOn May 17th, the NY Times Magazine published an article by Daniel Bergner, based on his book The Mind and the Moon. The article reports on psychosis , from the point of view of Caroline, who is beset by the hallucinations of psychosis. Daniel Bergner explores how to seek a deeper engagement with ourselves and one another—and how to find a better path toward caring for our minds.Or - does he leave out a huge piece of the picture?So many comments about the article, which seemed biased toward the Hearing Voices Network. One such response, from Freddie deBoer, has generated over 7,000 YouTube views so far.Links:NYTimes article:https://www.nytimes.com/2022/05/17/magazine/antipsychotic-medications-mental-health.htmlFreddie deBoer's response:https://youtu.be/yKB6F_VYuZYhttps://freddiedeboer.substack.com/p/my-response-to-daniel-bergners-new?s=rWant us to cover a topic? comment to share?Facebook page @Schizophrenia3Moms@SZ3MomsTrenches -  twitterRandye Kaye -Broadcaster, Actress, Voice Talent, Speaker, and Author (“Ben Behind his Voices”, “Happier Made Simple”)Miriam Feldman – Artist, Mom, Author “He Came in With It”Mindy Greiling – member of the Minnesota House of Representatives for twenty years.

Ukraine remains under attack. Civilians are still dying. Bucha, a suburb of Kiev, is the first of what could be many that reveal the scope and scale of war crimes. And it could get worse. Russian chessmaster Garry Kasparov said it–and I've been repeating since the war began. EASY IS OVER. The tide may have turned. But the flood is just starting. The flood of pain and loss. And flood of sadness and need. The flood of weapons. The flood of blood. Wartime is here. Not just for Ukraine. But for everyone who cares about freedom. And now, more than any other time in our lifetime, now is a time for us all to stay vigilant. We all need to help Ukraine. And understand the flood of pain they're in right now. And do more to help.  Welcome to another Ukraine War Report. Seth Harp (@sethharpesq) was a sophomore at UT-Austin when the Iraq war started and his Army Reserve unit got called up. He went over there as a simple truck-driving private and did a 15-month tour from 2003 to 2005. And the first piece he wrote for Rolling Stone was about an ambush that befell one of his detachments.  After college he went to NYU Law and spent five years practicing law, first as a corporate lawyer, later as an assistant AG at the Texas AG's office. While he says there were a lot of things he liked about the profession, a strong desire to write led him to quit and go to Columbia Journalism School. He graduated in 2016 and started writing for Rolling Stone. They sent him to Syria a couple of times, as well as Iraq, and to Mexico on three or more occasions. He developed a specialty covering the intersection of the military, armed conflict, and organized crime, reporting not only for Rolling Stone but also Harper's, The Intercept, The New Yorker's News Desk, The NY Times Magazine's At War, Columbia Journalism Review, The Texas Observer, and The Daily Beast.  Now, he's in Ukraine on assignment for Harper's and digging deep, running down leads, and gathering material for a number of stories. And he'll preview them in this episode.  He's on the inside and he takes us there with him. Into Ukraine. Into Kyiv. And into one of the most controversial units in the fight. The notorious, far-right Azov Regiment. Seth talked to it's founder, visited its Kiev headquarters and shares what he found. He also shares new reporting and how few foreign volunteers are actually joining the fight. And, explains why, back at home in the US, so many elite soldiers are dying mysteriously at Fort Bragg in North Carolina. It's a deep and insightful look into the conflict—and the Ukrainian and American militaries—that you can't get anywhere else.

My initial thought was to find information about  William Shakespeare's mother, Mary Arden.  I was curious as to the role she played or didn't play in her son's life.  That search led me to Shakespearian expert and Columbia University English Professor, James Shapiro.  His initial responses was, "your podcast will last about 30 seconds because we don't know much about her."  That said, he mentioned that he and his  brother Michael, also a professor at Columbia University (Graduate School of Journalism), would be interested in sharing stories about their mother who had also been a teacher.  Both brothers agree that their mother  "was the greatest teacher ever."  Unfortunately Lorraine had a very unhappy childhood. She was her father's daughter. The youngest of three children with two older brothers, Lorraine and her mom didn't see eye to eye. Therefore Lorraine lacked self confidence when at home, confronted by her mother. Out of this fractured relationship, Lorraine found a world full of fantasy and boundless imagination with her students. James says  " mom was a pathological fantasist. She believed that every child should have a dream." "Because of her unhappy childhood, continues Michael, she decided to recreate the world by sheer force of imagination and will."Mrs. Shapiro devoted her life to her family- her husband,  Herb, of 65 years, her children and her students. She  always told her children  that they were  accomplished and that they were going to succeed. That didn't mean that she didn't push them to work harder and do better- perhaps as Michael says "she sent mixed signals sometimes."During our conversation,  James and Michael share what a brilliant baker their mother was and how hard she worked to have fresh baked individual goodies ready for them each morning before running out the door to teach. However, when it came to main meals/dinner entrees, let's just say that wasn't her strong point.  Lorraine was  a teacher before she met her future husband.  Once  married, Lorraine's mother pressured her to quit while she was starting a family, insisting that is was completely unacceptable for her to work and raise a family at the same time.  It was 11 years before Lorraine got back to the classroom. Something that her son's know was very hard for their mother, not because she didn't love her family, it was overwhelmingly clear that their mother needed to be in the classroom with her  first graders. "It wasn't accidental that she was happiest with little kids, first graders especially. They know how to dream, they know how to play and they are perfectly happy to buy into her fantasy world," says James."Both sons love teaching and confess that they are the same kind of teacher that their mother was. They both take her into the classroom with them each day. They adore their mother, her passion and her spark and speak regularly of her magic, wisdom and  charm. "What she represented was strength" continues Michael emphatically. Lorraine may have been petite, but her dreams were big.James Shapiro-his work has made it to the NY Times Top 10 Books of 2020 list. He's a professor of English and Comparative Literature at Columbia University, distinguished authority on William Shakespeare, Former Board Member, now Govenor of Royal Shakespeare Company and he is the Shakespeare Scholar in Residence at the Public Theatre in New York.Michael Shapiro-Professor at Columbia Univ Graduate School of Journalism, He's written for newspapers in New Jersey and Chicago as well as magazine publications, such as Sports Illustrated, The New Yorker, The NY Times Magazine and more.  the author of Bottom of the Ninth and The Last Good Season: Brooklyn, the Dodgers, and Their Final Pennant Race Together plus author of 5 previous books.  

Jaime Lowe is the author of Breathing Fire: Female Inmate Firefighters on the Front Lines of California's Wildfires and a contributing writer to The New York Times Magazine. For a long time, a stereotypical idea of what California might be would have this Hollywood glamor. Now it's this Silicon Valley glamor, and it's this sheen of wealth and success and privilege and manifest destiny and gold. And I think that we need to acknowledge that that is actually absolute destruction. For the majority of people, that is a detrimental vision and not even something that really exists. [...] I think finding the people who are actually making the state work is much more useful in terms of finding ideals. Notes and references from this episode: @kicklikeagirl1, Jaime Lowe on Twitter Breathing Fire: Female Inmate Firefighters on the Front Lines of California's Wildfires, by Jaime Lowe   “Ten Sessions,” by Jaime Lowe, This American Life “The Incarcerated Women Who Fight California's Wildfires,” by Jaime Lowe, NY Times Magazine “Essential California newsletter - Nov. 17, 2021,” by Justin Ray, LA Times “The Super Bowl of Beekeeping,” by Jaime Lowe, NY Times Magazine City of Inmates: Conquest, Rebellion, and the Rise of Human Caging in Los Angeles, 1771–1965, by Kelly Lytle Hernández “Los Angeles Goes to War With Itself Over Homelessness,” by Jaime Lowe, NY Times Magazine  Mental: Lithium, Love, and Losing my Mind, by Jaime Lowe “Deputy cliques in L.A.

Tammy Nelson, the author of the book When You're The One Who Cheats, joins me to talk about cheating and infidelity from the point of the cheater. She offers her interesting insight on why people cheat, what it's like to be cheated on, and the recovery process. Is it Infidelity? Tammy defines infidelity as forming a relationship outside of your primary partnership; a relationship with a sexual context such as flirting online or paying a sex worker, in which you are dishonest about these relationships with your primary partner. The pandemic has caused an increase in online infidelity. People cheat for various reasons, but Tammy says that defining what infidelity means to you can help to start a conversation with your partner and can establish an agreement of implicit monogamy. Kinds of Infidelity While some people cheat to break up, for others, it's a wake-up call to turn something around in their relationship. In Tammy's words, “People rarely look for someone to cheat with, they look for someone to be.” Only 7% of affairs end up in marriage with the other person, while most affairs don't last longer than a year. People who choose to make it work after the affair should acknowledge their changed relationship and incorporate their needs and desires into the new relationship to avoid another affair or any resentment. Recovering from Infidelity Before sharing anything with family or friends, it's best to deal with the trauma in the conflict/crisis phase. The partners should process everything, from how it happened to how they've changed, in the insight phase. In the vision phase, the partners make decisions about moving forward. The goal of recovery is not to forgive, but to work on building a new sex life that is fulfilling. She points out red flags that people need to look out for before deciding to move forward. Should You Tell Your Partner? A partner who confesses to an affair after it's over to feel good about themselves, knowing it could devastate their partner, is selfish. Many feel that they would want to know if their partner ever cheats, Tammy suggests, considering the extent of information you would want to know. How to Avoid Cheating Tammy believes people also cheat because they have experienced developmental challenges of a second adolescence and seek to evolve their personalities. They rebel against their partners as they did with their parents. To avoid cheating, partners can work through this stage together to reinvent themselves and have fun. She also advises seeking therapy and outside support to grieve the end of the relationship instead of using your partner for it. Advice Tammy advises us to differentiate between intuition and fear because intuition allows us to trust and move forward.

People cheat for various reasons, but Tammy says that defining what infidelity means to you can help to start a conversation with your partner and can establish an agreement of implicit monogamy. Kinds of Infidelity While some people cheat to break up, for others, it's a wake-up call to turn something around in their relationship. In Tammy's words, “People rarely look for someone to cheat with, they look for someone to be.” Only 7% of affairs end up in marriage with the other person, while most affairs don't last longer than a year. People who choose to make it work after the affair should acknowledge their changed relationship and incorporate their needs and desires into the new relationship to avoid another affair or any resentment. Recovering from InfidelityBefore sharing anything with family or friends, it's best to deal with the trauma in the conflict/crisis phase. The partners should process everything, from how it happened to how they've changed, in the insight phase. In the vision phase, the partners make decisions about moving forward. The goal of recovery is not to forgive, but to work on building a new sex life that is fulfilling. She points out red flags that people need to look out for before deciding to move forward. Should You Tell Your Partner? A partner who confesses to an affair after it's over to feel good about themselves, knowing it could devastate their partner, is selfish. Many feel that they would want to know if their partner ever cheats, Tammy suggests, considering the extent of information you would want to know. How to Avoid Cheating Tammy believes people also cheat because they have experienced developmental challenges of a second adolescence and seek to evolve their personalities. They rebel against their partners as they did with their parents. To avoid cheating, partners can work through this stage together to reinvent themselves and have fun. She also advises seeking therapy and outside support to grieve the end of the relationship instead of using your partner for it. Advice Tammy advises us to differentiate between intuition and fear because intuition allows us to trust and move forward.

We will learn: How to give new meaning to our labels How mental illness can actually be used as guidance How to give yourself grace during low periods How are you feeling? With all these changes in the world, feeling like you’re struggling is totally justified. But that doesn’t make it easier. Maybe you have full-blown everyday depression, maybe just depressive episodes that hit you unexpectedly, or maybe even just like a dull cloud that follows you around. Either way, it can be hard to talk about. But there’s also some really important reasons why you should talk about it.  Getting things out of your head makes them easier to process. It helps you feel connected. It’s more common than you think. There’s growth in vulnerability. It helps others feel less alone. And most importantly, it’s healing. So today, we’re talking about it. Our guest is John Moe.  John Moe has had a hugely successful career. He’s has served as host of national public radio broadcasts such as Weekend America, his reporting has been on major broadcasts, he’s written for top publications like NY Times Magazine - and he’s also human.  He suffered from depression and decided to open up the dialogue and start talking about it with other big names in a way it’s not often talked about - with humor. He now hosts the podcast The Hilarious World of Depression and has a book of the same title. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Tom's guest is the award-winning journalist Nikole Hannah-Jones, an investigative correspondent who covers race and social justice issues for the New York Times Magazine. She won the 2020 Pulitzer Prize for Commentary for The 1619 Project, a multi-platform exploration of the history of enslaved people in America. That series began last summer. Last Sunday, Nikole Hannah-Jones wrote the cover story for the NY Times Magazine, a compelling essay about reparations for descendants of the enslaved, called What is Owed. Calls for reparations are not new. Ta-Nehisi Coates made a Case for Reparations in a controversial Atlantic Magazine essay in 2014. What is new is the multi-racial and multi-generational protests taking place in communities large and small across the country, and in fact, around the globe. In a recent poll, half the registered voters in the US said they support the Black Lives Matter movement. Given the ubiquity and intensity of demonstrations for racial equality, is now the moment when the calls for reparations will finally lead to sustained action? Nikole Hannah-Jones joins us via Zoom.

In this episode we review some new Osprey Dive Bags, Climate Change – the book and introduce a recurring segment called "Sea Hunt – It's alive" Going someplace great to dive means that we have to get our scuba gear there in a tough and durable bag. There are many great bags out there and we recently brought in some new dive bags from Osprey. Two of the bags that I think are really awesome are the Transporter Wheeled Duffel 90 and the Shuttle 130L/36. First they are super lightweight. On my scale the Wheeled Duffel came in at 7.9 pounds and the Shuttle was 9.6 pounds. My current dive bag is 12 pounds empty. I then packed my Apeks XTX 50, RK3 fins, 3 mm wetsuit, Light and Motion Solo, boots and Halcyon Eclipse 30 with the backplate and two masks . I still had some room in the duffel and had all kinds of space in the shuttle for packing another 9 pounds of stuff. All-in-all, the Osprey bags are incredible and I will surely have one when we hit Little Cayman and the Philippines later this year. "Climate Change – What everyone needs to know" written by Dr. Joseph Romm is an important read if you are concerned about what we are doing to the planet. The NY Times Magazine calls it "The best single-source primer on the state of climate change". Dr Romm takes you through the basics of climate science, extreme weather, projected impacts, avoiding the worst, politics and policy, the role of clean energy and climate change and you. I particularly found his discussion on the challenging aspects associated with transportation enlightening. We need to find a way to curb our use of petroleum-based transportation. In this new recurring feature I will be reviewing an episode of Sea Hunt. Sea Hunt was a television program that ran from 1958 to 1961 (four season) with 155 shows. It featured Lloyd Bridges as ex-navy frogman Mike Nelson. The show was filmed at Marine Land of the Pacific, Catalina Island, Paradise Cove Malibu, Silver Springs FL, Cypress Garden FL, Tarpon Springs FL, Nassau and Grand Bahamas. We are big fans of the show and hope you will enjoy our reviews on future episodes of Scuba Shack Radio.

***Warning - this episode contains spoilers*** This week, Karen Tongson and Margaret Wappler chat it up with pop culture maven and Pop Rocket's own podcast godmother Linda Holmes, the host of NPR's Pop Culture Happy Hour. The ladies revisit that wonderfully awkward time of their lives of Clearasil and body self-consciousness also known as 8th Grade while doing an in-depth exploration of Bo Burnham's debut film Eighth Grade. The movie centers around this socially awkward teen girl who tries really hard to fit it and be popular at school, but can't quite get there. Karen, Margaret, and Linda harken back to the drama of that time in their own lives, and also flesh out whether one of the scenes in the movie should--or not--be labeled a #MeToo moment. All Abouts Margaret is all about journalist href="https://www.nytimes.com/2018/07/25/magazine/big-business-gwyneth-paltrow-wellness.html">Taffy Brodesser-Akner's latest article in the NYTimes Magazine about Gwyneth Paltrow's lifestyle brand company Goop and how it went from Paltrow's Martha Stewart-like project to a 250 million dollar company. Linda is all about a new (and disappointing) study on inequality in film out of USC Annenberg that highlights the lack of progress in inclusion in film. Karen is all about Episode 7 of The Affair, specifically the scene that features “sapphic dabbling in a yurt” between Helen (Maura Tierney) and Sierra (Emily Browning).

Have you noticed how many kids suffer from anxiety these days? Therapists are alarmed by the trend, experts can’t agree on the causes, and parents live with the threat daily. In this episode Billy and Joy discuss the probable causes of anxiety and leave you with some practical questions to consider as you raise your kids. Talk about this: What do we model in terms of our anxiety levels? Do we fret? Are we "worriers?" Do we operate from a place of fear? Are there fear and anxiety issues you need to deal with yourself? What is our plan for ensuring our kids have a robust community? Do we help them process the tension in the comparison game? Do we encourage competition and achievement or elevate the higher value of relationships? We have to ask ourselves, what's the price of striving in our families? What would happen if we made it our AMBITION to lead quiet (er) lives?

Years ago, the great Dorothy Parker said that the movie business was the only business where the assets went home at night….Well that may have had a ring a truth then, but today in a world where intellectual property and human capital are what makes our economy tick, it seems that the assets always go home at night. And what they do, what they think about, and what they conceive of when they are home, opens a minefield of issues that are legal, cultural and human. Add to these issues the global world where work is 24/7, where nomadic work patterns are the subject of a NY Times Magazine cover story, and where a single idea can be worth billions and can change the world, the consequences of these issues are enormous. Distinguished law professor Orly Lobel in You Don't Own Me: How Mattel v. MGA Entertainment Exposed Barbie's Dark Side, tells a story of the toy business that is both compelling in its own right and emblematic of the future of law and work. My conversation with Orly Lobel:

Saturday, January 13, 2018: Steve Malzberg speaks with Ed Klein (Former  Newsweek Editor and former editor in chief NY Times Magazine) 

This week, Pete and Luke discuss the NY Times Magazine profile of Sean Hannity and Justin Peter's "Watching Fox" blog from Slate.com. Is Fox News propaganda? How does it impact public opinion? Is there a middle ground between a dogmatic insistence on "facts" and a postmodern world of competing narratives? The Editors Podcast is a production of Contrivers' Review.

We talk about what it means to resist categorical thinking and the often false narratives we construct about our own lives. From Annette’s participation in a bar association panel as a non-lawyer, to Sarah’s grappling with loss of identity, there is a need to rewrite the story we want our lives to tell, which means embracing the uncertainty of the creative process. We discuss how contemplative silence allows us to shed other people's expectations and to dismantle linear narratives all too common in the hyper-rational legal world.

More from Elizabeth Gilbert on passion vs. curiosity can be found here. On the topic of living creatively, Julia Cameron writes in The Artist's Way that "we are looking not to grand strokes of change - although they may come - but instead to the act of creatively husbanding all that is in the present: this job, this house, this relationship."

Nikolai DiPippa, Clinton School Director of Public Programs, sat down with Patterson Hood. He is the co-founder of the band Drive by truckers. He captures the Southern storytelling tradition through his songwriting and also published “The South’s Heritage is So Much More Than Just a Flag” in an op-ed for the NY Times Magazine.

There’s nothing left to say. I’ve read every editorial, every FaceBook post, every HuffPo screaming front page rant. I’m done. I’m done with the election, and I’m done even discussing it, or him. He who shall not be named. I had been calling him the apricot barbarian, but you know what? I love apricots, they’re delicious and pretty and when they’re ripe, they smell how I imagine Eden might have smelled, if Eden had been a real place and not just a setting for a fairy tale. Apricots are an incredible fruit, and they don’t deserve the association with that walking pile of shit. No, you know what? That’s an insult to shit, too. How about we call him…Fake-n-Bake Hitler? I have no problem insulting fake tanning, it’s an abhorrent practice, and nothin’s worse than Hitler, so that’s a good moniker. That works. Fake-n-Bake Hitler. Perfect. FBH for short. Or Tang-Stained Goon? Or Dehydration-Pee-Color Monster? Fanta-Face? So here I am this fall season, thinking about color, and there it was, the NY Times Magazine. With their food issue article about how the big industrial food companies, think Kraft, M&M Mars, you know, Foodiness, Inc., are all scrambling to find new ways to color their garbage non-food products with natural colors, because all of a sudden, American consumers are freaking out. Not because a Sunkist-Soda-faced demagogue could be our next president, but because all of the shit food they’ve been cramming into their gaping maws has been artificially colored for years, and now the moms of America are calling on the major food corporations to STOP THE MADNESS? “GET THE BLUE DYE OUT OF OUR KIDS M&M’s and SQUEEZY YOGURT”. They’re DEMANDING that the big food co’s ditch the color, and replace it with natural colors. Nobody’s demanding that we label GMO’s, or stop dumping raw sewage on our crops as fertilizer, or stop using what accounts to slave labor to harvest our food, or demanding that we clean up the trillions of tons of plastic in the ocean…no. Just give us our blue food, but please make it less chemically so we can feel better about eating shit. Wait a second, moms of America, NOW you’re upset? You still haven’t figured out that you’re feeding chemical-sugar crap to your children, but are really upset at the big issue of the COLOR of the foods? Yes, the artificial color is terrible, and made from stuff like coal-tar sludge, but like FBH himself, the artificial color is merely the petrochemical-stained surface of a much, much deeper, larger problem. A tremendous problem, a HUGE problem! The problem of the fact that we CARE so much about what’s in our SHITTY processed junk food, and don’t give a crap about what’s being done to real food. And that’s a problem. Live at 2:00 pm EST on heritageradionetwork.org or later on www.letsgetrealshow.com

REFLECTION QUOTES “An Instagram-age reader will note that Narcissus, in his statue-like stillness, is posing, and that his obsession with his own, intangible image has come about as a punishment for pride and for scorning real-life relationships…. Narcissus's isolation and loneliness, his inability to encounter, much less, to love, anyone in the flesh is recognizable to us as one of the core anxieties of our 21st century, digitally refracted existence.” ~Avi Steinberg in “The Murky Meaning of the Killer Selfie” in The NY Times Magazine, December 11, 2015 “There are two things we cannot do alone. One is to be married and the other is to be a Christian.” “The worst thing is not being wrong, but being sure one is not wrong.” ~Paul Tournier (1898-1986), Swiss physician and author “If you alter or obscure the Biblical portrait of God in order to attract converts, you don't get converts to God, you get converts to an illusion. This is not evangelism, but deception.” ~John Piper, American pastor and author “Have you no wish for others to be saved? Then you're not saved yourself, be sure of that!” ~Charles Haddon Spurgeon (1834-1892), famed London preacher “The Bible was not given to increase our knowledge but to change our lives.” ~D.L. Moody (1837-1899), famed 19th century evangelist “It is quite clear that between love and understanding there is a very close link…He who loves understands, and he who understands loves. One who feels understood feels loved, and one who feels loved feels sure of being understood.” ~Paul Tournier in his book To Understand Each Other SERMON PASSAGE 1 Peter 2 (NASB) 1 Therefore, putting aside all malice and all deceit and hypocrisy and envy and all slander, 2 like newborn babies, long for the pure milk of the word, so that by it you may grow in respect to salvation, 3 if you have tasted the kindness of the Lord. 4 And coming to Him as to a living stone which has been rejected by men, but is choice and precious in the sight of God, 5 you also, as living stones, are being built up as a spiritual house for a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ. 9 …you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for God's own possession, so that you may proclaim the excellencies of Him who has called you out of darkness into His marvelous light; 10 for you once were not a people, but now you are the people of God; you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. 11 Beloved, I urge you as aliens and strangers to abstain from fleshly lusts which wage war against the soul. 12 Keep your behavior excellent among the Gentiles, so that in the thing in which they slander you as evildoers, they may because of your good deeds, as they observe them, glorify God in the day of visitation. 1 Peter 3 8 To sum up, all of you be harmonious, sympathetic, brotherly, kindhearted, and humble in spirit; 9 not returning evil for evil or insult for insult, but giving a blessing instead; for you were called for the very purpose that you might inherit a blessing. 10 For, “The one who desires life, to love and see good days, Must keep his tongue from evil and his lips from speaking deceit. 11 “He must turn away from evil and do good; He must seek peace and pursue it. 12 “For the eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous, And His ears attend to their prayer, But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.” 1 Peter 4 8 Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins.

Someone once remarked that when they saw a snake and a vulture having sex in Washington, and thought it was just business as usual.  Fitzgerald said that he rich were different, because they have more money. Politicians are different, usually because that they have more insecuritiesThe fact is that most politicians and other high profile inhabitants of our nation's capital are just flesh and blood human beings. And yes, they may be different than you and I, they are certainly more caught up in their unbroken series of successful gestures, but most do care about their work.In fact, some care too much.  As the late, great journalist Richard Ben Cramer once wrote, that feeling you can make a difference is like a drug.   Also a great journalist, Mark Leibovich, has been been giving us great insights about the power players in Washington for the NY Times Magazine. Those profiles are part of his new book Citizens of the Green Room: Profiles in Courage and Self-Delusion.My conversation with Mark Leibovich:

Rosie Schaap, author of the weekly NYTimes Magazine column “Drink”. Celebrate Halloween early on Sharp & Hot as Emily Peterson is joined by Rosie Schaap, author of the weekly NYTimes Magazine column “Drink”. They talk about their witchy childhoods, ghost stories and, of course, drinks. Tune in for a candid conversation on mixology that will leave you thirsty for more. This program was brought to you by The International Culinary Center. “When I was a teenage girl I was one of those kids always making crazy concoctions in the kitchen and ordering crazy herbs in the mail. I was a wannabe witchy kid. As I’ve grown older, in a way, making cocktails now does that for me.” [05:00] –Rosie Schaap on Sharp & Hot

It has been argued that more evil is committed in the name of banality, than purpose.  Certainly a look at our current golden age of television, confirms that. Don Draper,  Walter White, and Tony Soprano never really seem to make up their minds about being good or evil.So what’s the zeitgeist of our culture that separates hero from villain and what's different today than say in the 90’s or even the 50’s?Who better to ask than Chuck Klosterman, The Ethicist for the NY Times Magazine, and the bestselling author of seven previous books, including Sex, Drugs and Cocoa Puffs no looks into our confusion about good and evil in I Wear the Black Hat: Grappling with Villains (Real and Imagined)My conversation with Chuck Klosterman: 

When we speak of death and sickness, it is often as if we are engaged in the language of war.  We are battling, fighting, staving off.  Perhaps we'd be better to think of it in language from the 17th Century poet John Donne, in “Death Be Not Proud.” That might help us to understand a different language of death, but it was all before the advent of the medical/industrial complex. The ways in which the forces of medicine stand in the way of a “meaningful death.”That’s the world that journalist Katie Butler writes about in Knocking on Heaven's Door: The Path to a Better Way of Death.  Her story, in the NY Times Magazine, about her father's death, was one of the most commented upon articles in the history of the Magazine.My conversation with Katie Butler:

Why is it that poor children seem to do consistently worse academically than middle class kids?  On the other hand, why do some wealthy children fail or breakdown while occasionally kids from the mean streets of urban neighborhood, can reach monumental heights of success? Is it just IQ or temperament, or is there something else? Something that has to do with the innate character and perseverance of the child? Paul Tough, who introduced many to the work of Geoffrey Canada and the Harlem Children's Zone and who is a contributing editor the NY Times Magazine, has spent a year reporting on what makes kids succeed and fail in school and in life. How Children Succeed: Grit, Curiosity, and the Hidden Power of Character, is the result of that effort. My conversation with Paul Tough:

Each day we are confronted by some kind of ethical dilemma. As life gets more complicated, as technology and speed often exceed our ability to handle it, ethical questions seem more frequent. .Perhaps it's because we are looking for some grounding. Some basic set of core ideas or principles that might provide a true north to help make everything else easier. No one understands this better than Randy Cohen, who for twelve years was The Ethicist for the NY Times Magazine. Now he teaches us to Be Good: How to Navigate the Ethics of Everything My conversation with Randy Cohen:

SaTP30.mp3 Listen on Posterous Guests Ellen Masten Academic and College Counselor Pacific Collegiate School and Michele Radcliffe, Director of College Counseling at York SchoolNews of the Week:1) Thomas Friedman’s “Teaching For America” Op-Ed piece in Sunday’s NYT Honoring teachers as professionals, preparing & compensating them accordingly; role of parents - The more we demand from teachers the more we have to demand from students and parents. 2) Growing Up Digital, Wired for Distraction NYTimes Magazine “Their brains are rewarded not for staying on task but for jumping to the next thing,” said Michael Rich, an associate professor at Harvard Medical School and executive director of the Center on Media and Child Health in Boston. And the effects could linger: “The worry is we’re raising a generation of kids in front of screens whose brains are going to be wired differently.”Allison Miller, 14, sends and receives 27,000 texts in a month, her fingers clicking at a blistering pace as she carries on as many as seven text conversations at a time. She texts between classes, at the moment soccer practice ends, while being driven to and from school “The headline is: bring back boredom,” added Dr. Rich, who last month gave a speech to the American Academy of Pediatrics entitled, “Finding Huck Finn: Reclaiming Childhood from the River of Electronic Screens.”3) Computers In Schools Are A Failure, Says Computer Pioneer Alan Kay [Apple in Educ] Kay says the education system has squandered 30 years of technology in classrooms. He likens the modern factory educatory system to a monkey with a microscope. The monkey looks at its reflection in the microscope’s barrel but doesn’t look through the eyepiece — it utterly misses the point.4) Project Red: Do 1:1 right or don't do it at all ZDNet EducationLast month, Project Red, an initiative to “Revolutionize Education” through technology, released findings on the utility and factors for success in 1:1 computing. Their research, which spanned almost 1000 schools using a comprehensive survey instrument over the 2009-2010 school year suggested that, when done correctly, 1:1 computing can have measurable and significant impacts on teaching and learning. When done poorly, 1:1 is just an added cost without any added educational value. 5) The Secret To Getting Every Student Excited About Writing Tech&Learning “A lot of student writing is of little interest to anyone beyond the teacher.”Main Topic:  College Admission: 2010: Part I (through submitting applications) Guests Ellen Masten and Michele Radcliffe 8 Big Changes to College Admission in 2010-2011 - Yahoo News http://www.nacacnet.org/PublicationsResources/steps/Pages/default.aspx .  This is a subsection of the NACAC website, the National Association of College Admissions Counselors.  The URL gives students and parents information about various topics in the college admission process. Questions on our minds: When should students first start thinking actively about college admission and what should their initial steps entail? What are your tips for helping high school students identify the best college/universities to match their interests & personalities? How many schools should a student be applying to?  Is there a notion of applying to too many? How important are college visits? interviews with reps? teacher evaluations? course rigor vs. SAT scores? What are the trends now that admission offices with smaller staffs are inundated with more applications? (See “Application Inflation” from previous podcast) How can an applicant make his or her application stand out from the crowd? Do DVDs and ePortfolios help showcase student work effectively or are they ignored for lack of time? How has the role of private counselors evolved and are parents getting their money’s worth? A new ethics code for college admissions counselors - EducationNews.Org & USA Today 6.7.10 - The number of families hiring private counselors to advise them on the college application process continues to grow, with one recent study estimating that 26% of "high achieving" students now make use of such counselors. The field is unregulated and includes many one- or two-person operations, as well as large, slick businesses that boast about their clients' track records.
