His father rejected him. His grandmother changed everything. Brad Ryan spent seven and a half years driving across America with his 85-year-old grandmother, visiting all 63 national parks, and quietly healing the wounds his coming out left behind. What started as an adventure became something neither of them expected: a reckoning with family, identity, and the stories gay men tell themselves about who will ever truly accept them. Brad joins Rick to talk about what happens when you stop waiting for the people who hurt you and start showing up for the ones who show up for you. Key Takeaways: Why Brad didn't come out until college and what his father's reaction cost himHow a camping trip in the Smoky Mountains became the turning point with his grandmotherWhy gay men build elaborate stories about rejection that don't match realityWhat intergenerational connection offers gay men that their own community often can'tHow curiosity instead of judgment transforms even the most broken family relationshipsWhy healing doesn't always look like confrontation — sometimes it looks like a road trip About Brad Brad Ryan is a veterinarian, wildlife conservationist, social media influencer, and writer from southeastern Ohio. He earned his BA from Miami University in Ohio, an MSc in mammalian biology from the University of Pretoria in South Africa, and a DVM/MPH combined degree from The Ohio State University, specializing in wildlife medicine and veterinary public health. For Brad, storytelling is a vehicle for healing—rooted in empathy, inspired by nature, and driven by a desire to help others feel seen and connected. As a keynote speaker, he champions LGBTQ+ inclusion in the outdoors, eliminating stigma around mental health, and the protection of wildlife Connect With Brad Website Instagram Facebook LinkedIn Hey Guys, Check This Out!

Meet Mike Hayes & Ashley Pacholewski: Mike Hayes serves as Assistant Superintendent of Aurora City School District in Northeast Ohio. Previously, he was principal of Aurora High School—known as “The Greenhouse”—and earlier served as an assistant principal and administrator in the Cincinnati/Dayton area. He began his career as a secondary language arts teacher. An Aurora resident, Mike holds a leadership certificate from Harvard University, an M.Ed. from Xavier University, and a B.A. from The Ohio State University. He is currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Educational Leadership at University of Dayton. Mike is passionate about growth, optimism, and courageous leadership. He believes in dreaming boldly, embracing vulnerability, and choosing to see the best in others while fully engaging in the life right in front of us. Dr. Ashley Pacholewski (Pach) serves as Principal of Aurora High School, “The Greenhouse,” in the Aurora City School District. Previously, she was an assistant principal at Ashland Middle School and began her career teaching English language arts and serving as an instructional coach at Brunswick High School. She earned her undergraduate degree from Bowling Green State University, her M.Ed. and reading certification from Cleveland State University, and her Ed.D. from Ashland University. Ashley is passionate about creating a culture of curiosity, connection, and joy—empowering teams to take risks, collaborate meaningfully, and support students as whole learners. Creating a Greenhouse Culture: In this week’s episode of Principal Matters, Dr. Jen Schwanke hosts a “full circle” conversation with Ashley Pacholewski, the first female principal in the history of Aurora High School, and Mike Hayes, Assistant Superintendent of Aurora City Schools. The discussion centers on the “Greenhouse” culture of their district—a nickname for their school, but also a metaphor for the school's nurturing environment where leadership is shared and growth is continuous. Mike describes the intentionality behind the transition to Ashley's leadership, which was designed to ensure that the new leader wasn’t just a fit for the existing culture but had the authenticity to make it even better. Ashley reflects on her first year, emphasizing the profound impact of being given permission to enjoy her first year. She describes a leadership style rooted in authenticity and gratitude, where she brings her whole self to the job—symbolized by the mason jar bouquets from her own garden that she leaves for staff. The support between Mike and Ashley serves as a model for effective mentorship; it is built on scheduled bi-weekly check-ins, generous assumptions of positive intent, and a lack of ego, allowing Ashley the space to lead without the weight of top level pressure. The Power of Permission: A successful transition starts when veteran leadership gives the new leader explicit permission to enjoy the role and focus on relationship-building rather than just immediate data or achievement. It also involves staff in reflecting on how they can support the incoming leader, creating a sense of shared ownership in the new principal’s success. Professional respect: Shift leadership vocabulary from “top-down” praise to “side-by-side” validation. Using language that honors the person (e.g., “You are inspiring”) rather than the leader’s reaction to them (e.g., “I am inspired by you”) fosters true professional respect. Stress is Good: Growth requires a certain amount of stress. Effective leaders don’t just clear the path; they provide the support systems that allow individuals to develop the strength to handle challenges. Cultural Gratitude: Small, authentic gestures are not “extras”; they are essential seeds of trust that define the building’s climate. The interview concludes with a powerful outlook on the future of school leadership as an infinite game. Mike shares a poignant analogy about the importance of wind in a biodome, noting that leaders should not seek to remove all obstacles, but rather help staff and students grow the resilience needed to withstand them. By focusing on intentional language and prioritizing collaborative learning over mandates, the Aurora team demonstrates how a heart-centered, value-driven approach creates a thriving educational ecosystem.

Send us Fan MailPediatric cancer is a gut punch most people can't look at for long, and that discomfort has a cost. We sit down with Dr Dean Lee, Professor of Pediatrics at The Ohio State University and Nationwide Children's Hospital, to talk about why kids' cancer research is still massively underfunded and why community-driven giving is not a feel-good extra. It's often the only way the next breakthrough gets its first chance.We unpack the hard truth behind the pediatric cancer funding gap: fewer patients means fewer commercial incentives, and “trickle-down” solutions from adult oncology don't always fit the diseases kids actually face. Dean explains why childhood cancer can be oddly invisible day to day, even though it remains a leading cause of death in children outside of accidents, and why foundations like Cancer Free Kids step in to fund the science that government grants won't touch early on.Then we get into hope with specifics. Dean walks us through what's changing in cancer immunotherapy and cellular therapy, including why CAR T cell therapy was a game-changer in leukemias and lymphomas and why solid tumors have been so much harder. We also talk about what pilot grants really do, how a $50,000 award can create the preliminary data needed for major funding, and a real example involving CRISPR and natural killer cell research that grew into a much bigger research platform.Join us for the third annual Little Legends Lemonade:

In this week's episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts Prof. Albert Cheng of Ohio State University and Alisha Searcy of the Center for Strong Public Schools speak with Bob Nasson, Editor of The Concord Review and Executive Director of the National History Club. They discuss the importance of rigorous history education and students' essay writing in developing academic excellence. Since 1987, The Concord Review has published more than 1,600 history essays averaging 9,000 words, written by students from 47 U.S. states and 47 countries. Nasson explores the state of history essay writing among American students, the origins and mission of The Concord Review, and the National History Club's efforts to encourage students to engage deeply with high academic quality history. He also discusses strengthening history instruction, the connection between reading and research writing, and the importance of humanities education in an increasingly STEM-focused landscape. As America celebrates its 250th anniversary, Nasson reflects on how students can explore the nation's history in all its complexity. In closing, he reads the opening passage of an essay set to be published in The Concord Review's September issue.

Most of us spend a lot of time trying to be happy and avoiding sadness whenever we can. But what if sadness isn't something to fear or eliminate? What if it's one of the most important emotions we have? Why do we cry when we're grieving—but also when we're overwhelmed with joy? Why does listening to sad music often make us feel better instead of worse? And when does a good cry actually help us recover, while other times it only leaves us feeling stuck? According to David Huron, sadness isn't simply an unpleasant emotion we have to endure. It serves important psychological and biological purposes that help us cope with loss, strengthen relationships, and even prepare us for the future. Understanding how sadness works can change the way you experience difficult moments and help you recognize the difference between healthy sadness and harmful rumination. David Huron is Professor Emeritus at Ohio State University and author of The Science of Sadness: A New Understanding of Emotion.

In this episode, Dan and Lauren are joined by Dr. Laura Greenhaw, Assistant Professor of Agricultural Leadership in the Department of Agricultural Education and Communication at the University of Florida. Laura's path to the leadership classroom ran through a ranching family in rural New Mexico, years teaching high school agriculture, and a Ph.D. at Texas Tech — where she first watched a fellow doctoral student weave film clips into teaching and never looked back. The conversation explores how Laura has turned film into a deliberate, evidence-based tool for teaching team leadership and group development. Students arrive already knowing what leadership and teamwork feel like, she argues, but they rarely share the same mental model of the words — and film creates a shared experience the whole class can debrief together. Laura walks through the research arc she has built with collaborator Matthew Gold: applying Tuckman and Jensen's stages of small-group development to Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, examining how Hogwarts house identity shapes team decision-making, and comparing inductive and deductive sequencing with The Imitation Game. Along the way, she and the hosts trade the practical craft of film-based teaching — student choice, "REEL" analysis papers, showing full-length films as students' viewing habits change — and talk candidly about navigating sensitive content with intention. Dan connects it all to his own long-running "Leadership in Film" assignment and the Collegiate Leadership Competition's curated clip library.

Who are the mentors in your life that you are learning from? Are they leading you to God or down the wrong path? In this episode, Jeff and Mark discuss:  Doing the right thing even when nobody else is. The importance of following the compass of the Lord, not of mammon. Seeing the miracles of God in the worst moments of our lives. Introducing God to others through your business.    Key Takeaways:  If you don't have God, money will become your God. If you find yourself going down the wrong path, change your mentor, and you will change your whole future. God and purpose will fill the voids in your life far more than money or notoriety ever will. As long as it remains optional, you can absolutely talk about faith and have a chaplain in your business. Be bold about your service to God. Legally, you gain protections because people know who you are, know what you're about, and know your values from the get-go. You can never go wrong by doing the right thing.    "Show me your mentor, and I'll show you your future." —  Mark Whitacre   About Mark Whitacre: Mark Whitacre has been engaged with the faith at work movement for the past twenty years.  Mark is Vice President of Culture & Care and Executive Director of the t-factor initiative at Coca-Cola Consolidated, Inc., and has worked with Coca-Cola Consolidated since 2019.  Coca-Cola Consolidated is a faith-friendly, publicly traded (NASDAQ) company with an official purpose statement: “To honor God in all we do, to serve others, to pursue excellence, and to grow profitably”.   Mark had served as National Director and then COO of Christian Business Men's Connection (CBMC) from 2013 to 2019.  Mark was the COO and Chief Science Officer from 2006 to 2013 at Cypress Systems, Inc., a California faith-based biotechnology company where Mark still serves on Cypress' advisory council.    Mark's story is also a story of redemption and a second chance, where he now works for his largest victim of price-fixing from 35 years ago,  and Mark is still married to his wife who turned him into the FBI 35 years ago.   After completing his B.S. and M.S. degrees at Ohio State University, Mark earned his Ph.D. degree at Cornell University in biochemistry.  He worked as an executive for some Fortune 500 companies, including Ralston Purina (now Nestle), Degussa (now Evonik), and Archer Daniels Midland (ADM).  He was recruited at ADM when he was 32 as the President of the Biotech Division and Corporate Vice President of ADM.  Mark has extensive international business experience, having lived in Germany for four years working for Evonik at their world headquarters in Frankfurt.

In today's episode, we highlighted an OncLive Peer Exchange discussion about cancer-associated Lambert-Eaton myasthenic syndrome (LEMS) moderated by Misty D. Shields, MD, PhD. Dr Shields is an assistant professor of clinical medicine in the Department of Medicine in the Division of Hematology/Oncology at the Indiana University (IU) School of Medicine, as well as an adjunct assistant professor of medical & molecular genetics and an associate member of Experimental and Developmental Therapeutics at the IU Melvin and Bren Simon Comprehensive Cancer Center in Indianapolis. She was joined by Triparna Sen, MD, PhD, MS, a professor at The Ohio State University in Columbus, and Ditte Primdahl, MD, an assistant professor of neurology (neuro-oncology) and neurological surgery at the Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine in Chicago, Illinois.In this exclusive conversation, the experts discussed the ties between cancer-associated LEMS and small cell lung cancer. They noted that LEMS is characterized by proximal muscle weakness, hyperreflexia, and autonomic dysfunction, and that diagnostic challenges include late referral to neurology and misattribution of symptoms to cancer-related fatigue. They also highlighted key symptoms, which include proximal leg weakness, dry mouth, and blurred vision. Furthermore, they dove into treatment options for symptom control and emphasized that a multidisciplinary approach to care, including oncology, neurology, and laboratory medicine, is crucial for early LEMS diagnosis and effective management.

You have probably seen it in your feed: "Seed oils are toxic." "Omega-6 fats cause inflammation." "Never cook with vegetable oil."   But is any of that actually true? And more importantly, what does it mean for what you are feeding your children?   In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Martha Belury, a registered dietitian and professor at The Ohio State University who has spent more than 30 years studying fatty acid metabolism. She is one of the few researchers in the world who has actually tested the omega-6 theory in clinical settings, and her findings may surprise you.  We cover: •      What omega-6 fatty acids are and why they are considered essential nutrients •      The only two fatty acids your body cannot make on its own and why children need them for healthy growth •      Why the science does not support the idea that seed oils cause inflammation •      The difference between acute and chronic inflammation, and why parents are often confused about what inflammation actually is •      What decades of cardiovascular research tells us about vegetable oils and heart health •      Why there is still no RDA for essential fatty acids and what that gap means for your family •      How to think critically about nutrition claims on social media, especially ones that lead with fear  Dr. Belury also shares what the adult research on linoleic acid and metabolic health may suggest for children with obesity, and why pediatric-specific studies in this area are so urgently needed. This is not a conversation about what oil to buy. It is a conversation about how to think clearly when you are surrounded by conflicting information and you just want to feed your kids well.  Connect with Dr. Martha Belury: •      LinkedIn: Martha Belury •      Ohio State University, Department of Food Science and Technology: fst.osu.edu Resources mentioned in this episode: •      The Nourished Child Blueprint: thenourishedchild.com/blueprint •      Kids Thrive at Every Size by Jill Castle More from Jill: •      The Nourished Child podcast: thenourishedchild.com •      Jill's website: jillcastle.com •      Instagram: @i.am.pediRD

Today, Mike serves as the Nursing Professional Development Specialist for Emergency Services in central California, shaping the next generation of emergency nurses. When he's not doing that, you'll find him volunteering on medical teams at local sporting events, building LEGO as a proud Adult Fan Of Legos, staying active in his church, or hanging out with his wife and their rescue pup, Sadie. Mike was also recently honored as BCEN's 2026 Distinguished CEN. Drawing from more than 30 years in emergency medicine, Michael shares how curiosity, certification, and a commitment to continuous learning have guided his journey, while offering insights into what meaningful education looks like for today's nurses. Through stories of perseverance, purpose, and professional growth, Michael reminds us that knowledge is most powerful when it is shared in service of others.

Six Marines raising the American flag atop Mount Suribachi on February 23, 1945, became one of the most enduring images in American history. But what about the company behind the flag? Join the Veterans Breakfast Club for a conversation with Marine veteran and author Billy Myers, who has spent years researching the remarkable story of Easy Company, 2nd Battalion, 28th Marines—the unit whose men climbed Suribachi and whose members raised both the first and second flags over Iwo Jima. Myers' forthcoming book tells the story of Easy Company from its formation through the brutal battle for Iwo Jima and beyond. Drawing on letters, diaries, military records, and family accounts, he introduces the ordinary young Americans who became part of one of World War II's most iconic moments. If Band of Brothers told the story of Easy Company in Europe, Myers aims to tell the story of Easy Company in the Pacific. A Marine Corps veteran himself, Myers enlisted at seventeen and served four years before earning degrees from Northwestern State University and The Ohio State University. He later spent nearly three decades coaching football and baseball in Louisiana, bringing the same commitment to teamwork, leadership, and perseverance to his historical research. Our conversation will explore not only the famous flag raising but also the men whose lives have too often been overshadowed by a single photograph. We'll discuss the savage fighting on Iwo Jima, the bonds forged within Easy Company, the challenges of reconstructing its history eighty years later, and why these Marines still matter today. As always, we'll leave plenty of time for audience questions, comments, and stories. Veterans, family members, students, history lovers, and all who wish to learn are warmly welcome.

In this week's episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts Prof. Albert Cheng of Ohio State University and Pioneer Senior Fellow Charlie Chieppo speak with NYT-bestselling author Jane Leavy about Hall of Fame pitcher Sandy Koufax.

Coca-Cola is one of the most well-known products on planet earth, but did you ever wonder how a brown fizzy drink fueled the rise of a corporate juggernaut? The answer, says Ohio State historian Bartow Elmore, has everything to do with its business structure. In this episode, Bart offers his take on how Coke went from Atlanta soda parlors in the late 19th century to markets across the globe in less than a century, all along reaping tremendous benefits from public infrastructure while passing the bulk of its environmental costs on to others.  Bart also talks about the difficulties of doing research on powerful corporations, why he thinks we should care about environmental history, and the meaning of what he calls "Coca-Cola Capitalism."   Dr. Bartow Elmore is Professor of History at The Ohio State University and author of Citizen Coke: The Making of Coca-Cola Capitalism (W.W. Norton, 2015). You can find out more about his work, including his book on the history of Monsanto at his website, BartElmore.com.   This episode was originally aired as episode 140 on August 26, 2019.

Brad takes a closer look at heat stress in dairy calves and cows. This episode highlights several recent studies on how temperature-humidity index affects calf behavior, lying time, respiration rates, shade use, and growth performance.Brad discusses research from the University of Guelph, The Ohio State University, and Mississippi State showing that heat-stressed calves spend less time lying down, stand more often, breathe harder, and may gain less weight when shade is not provided. He also reviews a Texas A&M study using precision livestock technology to monitor drinking behavior, rumen temperature, and heat stress responses in robotic milking herds.The big takeaway: heat stress in calves deserves more attention. Simple strategies like shade cloth, better ventilation, and more thoughtful housing design may help improve calf comfort, growth, and long-term performance.Questions, comments, scathing rebuttals? -> themoosroom@umn.edu or call 612-624-3610 and leave us a message!Linkedin -> The Moos RoomTwitter -> @UMNmoosroom and @UMNFarmSafetyFacebook -> @UMNDairyYouTube -> UMN Beef and Dairy and UMN Farm Safety and HealthInstagram -> @UMNWCROCDairyExtension WebsiteAgriAmerica Podcast Directory

— In this profound and deeply heartfelt episode, Valeria sits down with Colleen Quinn to explore the sacred intersection of psychology, spirituality, breathwork, and soul awakening. Together, they dive into the transformational journey behind her upcoming book, Essence Merging — a raw and intimate exploration of trauma, healing, divine love, and the courage to return home to the authentic self. Through near-death experiences, conscious breathwork, mystical synchronicities, and emotional truth, Colleen shares how life's deepest wounds can become portals into awakening and radical self-love. Blending decades of clinical expertise with spiritual insight, this conversation invites listeners into a deeper understanding of what it means to heal not only the mind, but the soul itself. This episode is a powerful reminder that within every breakdown lies the possibility of transformation, and within every breath lives a pathway back to love. Valeria interviews Colleen Quinn — She is the author of  "Essence Merging." Colleen Quinn is a transpersonal psychologist with a child specialty along with certification in breathwork. The word psychology comes from the Greek meaning study of the soul. True healing always takes us into direct relationship with our own soul, bringing coherence to mind, body, and heart. This is Colleen's devotion, not only for herself, but for all. The most reliable way to converse with our own soul is through conscious, integrative breathwork. Colleen has taught psychology at The Ohio State University, Virginia Commonwealth University, Columbus State Community College and was the dean at Hondros College.  Colleen has published research in many top-tier scientific journals, among them Emotion, Adolescent Psychology, and Residential Treatment for Children and Youth to name a few. In her private practice, spanning decades, Colleen used Somatic Experiencing (SE) and Internal Family Systems (IFS). Both techniques use breathwork to find and feel our body's stored traumas, loving them to bring healing.  In 2018, Colleen had her second near-death experience, leading her to utter the plea, "let me be love in every moment." This was the catalyst for her spiritual awakening. Her profoundly intimate and raw transformation is chronicled in the upcoming book by Vanguard Press, Essence Merging, due out in April 2026. Colleen uses story to inspire others that there is so much more to life. Emotional truths are interwoven into an unconventional love story that connects us with Colleen and her breathwork partner as they follow the leadings of conscious breath into rediscovery of ancient tantric practices. SE and IFS come to life in her breathwork descent journeys. She weaves in pop culture, mystical synchronicities, psychology, and ancient traditions as she sheds her shame to in-spire others. This story is an invitation for readers to discover their own divine blueprint, and a guide to returning home to the sacred self.  To learn more about Colleen Quinn and her work, please visit: https://www.essencemerging.com/.

As America marks the 250th anniversary of the Revolution, a key question still deserves our attention: how did a loose collection of North American colonies defeat the most powerful empire on earth?In this special episode of The Learning Curve, co-hosts Prof. Albert Cheng of Ohio State University and Massachusetts state champion U.S. history and civics teacher Kelley Brown explore that question with Pulitzer Prize winner Joseph Ellis, author of His Excellency: George Washington and the new The Great Contradiction: The Tragic Side of the American Founding. Their conversation centers on George Washington, the figure historians consider indispensable to American independence.Among the topics they explore:A general who won by not losing: Washington lost more individual battles than he won, but by Valley Forge he understood he needed only to outlast the British, fighting a "war of posts" and engaging only when he held the advantage.A leader defined by surrendering power: Prof. Ellis shares that Washington never overtly sought to lead the Continental Army, or become president, and that precisely because he did not want power, he could be trusted with it.A presence that made the U.S. Constitution possible: Washington didn't speak until the last day at the Constitutional Convention, yet his presence alone lent the effort its legitimacy. As Prof. Ellis puts it: without Washington, no war won, no Constitution, and no nation.A reckoning with the Founding's failures: Drawing on his latest book, Prof. Ellis examines the two great tragedies of the Founding, slavery and the mistreatment of Native Americans, and where Washington, who chose to free the enslaved people he owned, stood on each topic.Tune in to hear this fascinating conversation about why George Washington's example remains relevant today.

It's been six years since workplaces were completely upended by COVID-19.Concepts like full remote work and a new trend, “micro-shifting," would have been foreign to workers only a decade ago.However, completely shifting how people work has some questioning what works best for them.From unorthodox schedules going against the traditional 9 to 5 to new methods in how work gets done, how are people working in 2026?Guests:Tara Weiss, business journalist and contributor, The Wall Street JournalLori Kendall, director, full-time MBA program/senior lecturer in management and human resources at Ohio State University

As America celebrates the 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence, Proclaiming Liberty by Timothy Sandefur revisits the revolutionary year of 1776 through the minds of John Adams and Thomas Jefferson, two men whose words and ideas gave birth to modern liberty. Sandefur’s engaging narrative brings to life the “American mind” as those extraordinary Founders sought to express it—their arguments, ideals, and enduring beliefs in natural rights and self-government.Sweeping from the English Civil War and the writings of Locke and Montesquieu to the colonial battles over the Stamp and Townshend Acts and the battlefields of Massachusetts and Virginia, Sandefur’s narrative shows how the Declaration distilled centuries of debate about freedom, law, and human nature into one of history’s most enduring statements on justice. Blending biography, political thought, and legal history—from Sir Edward Coke and Edmund Burke to Tacitus and Frederick Douglass—Proclaiming Liberty traces the Declaration’s legacy through the abolitionist movement, the Civil War, and the modern age, documenting how its principles have continued to challenge tyranny, refute relativism, and inspire movements for justice.Join us for this discussion between Prof. Lee Strang and Timothy Sandefur as they reflect on the Declaration's intellectual pedigree and enduring relevance for all who love freedom.Featuring:Timothy Sandefur, Vice President for Legal Affairs, Goldwater InstituteProf. Lee J. Strang, Executive Director, Salmon P. Chase Center for Civics, Culture, and Society, The Ohio State University

“Know your enemy” seems to be the new approach to artificial intelligence.At first, academic institutions reacted to AI with fear and concern. Now, AI is being integrated and accepted across universities.Last year, the California State University System entered into a contract with OpenAI to provide students, faculty and staff with ChatGPT Edu. The contract was recently renewed despite many students and professor encouraging the university not to continue the deal.Just recently, here in Ohio, the University of Cincinnati did the same, offering BearcatGPT to all their students and faculty for free.Ohio State University is no exception. The AI Fluency initiative is in full swing and has recently broadened into the Arts and Humanities AI Institute.Should universities conform to AI in academic spaces?
