Youth sport is part of an ideal childhood, and nearly everyone—from the federal government to parents—encourages children to take part. Driven by the promise of better physical and mental health, better educational outcomes, and a better society, tens of millions of kids across the USA participate in this form of organized play. Yet, most children who enter youth sport quit by the time they reach adolescence, often due to injury or abuse, and many more are sidelined by its high financial burdens. In MORE THAN PLAY: How Law, Policy, and Politics Shape American Youth Sport, Dionne Koller, Director of the Center for Sport and the Law at the University of Baltimore, where she also serves as a law professor, delves into why youth sport has become all-consuming, costly, and, in too many cases, detrimental to boys and girls.

The whistleblowing book written by former Facebook executive Sarah Wynn-Williams is as explosive and shocking as expected, maybe more so. The author reveals personal stories that shaped her world-view and explains her conviction and hope to use her life to affect positive change. That same hope led her to pursue a career at a social technology company she seemingly envisioned as a champion for humanity. From there, she takes us with her into executive level meetings, haphazard trips abroad, and interactions with various staff that each provide startling enlightenment into the inner workings of a company with access to sensitive information about people around the globe. Due to revelations within this book, U.S. Senators are currently looking into Facebook's alleged collusion with foreign governments. Regardless of its entertainment value, Sarah may have accomplished her goal of affecting positive change. BONUS: a side quest refresher of the promising middle-aged man, Brett KavanaughAll opinions are personal and not representative of any outside company, person, or agenda.

He discusses the significance of community ownership, legacy, and his personal connection to organ donation. Cameron highlights the impact of organ donors on his friends' lives, including a fraternity brother who received a kidney transplant. He also addresses common misconceptions about organ donation within the Black community, emphasizing the need for education, trust, and personal storytelling to make the topic more relatable. The discussion underscores the power of local narratives in raising awareness about organ donation and encourages open conversations within families and communities. Episode Highlights Origins of BlaCkOWned™ Outerwear: Means Cameron shares how the brand was born out of his desire to embrace identity, cultural heritage, and community pride. Meaning Behind the Brand Name: "BlaCkOWned™ wasn't just about a Black-owned business—it was about owning who we are as a people, our culture." Legacy and Impact: Means expresses his vision for his legacy: "Fostering Black creativity and dialogue, and showing people they have options." Connection to Organ Donation: Means discusses his personal experiences with organ donation, including friends and family members who have received transplants. He highlights the challenges of mistrust and misinformation about organ donation in the Black community. Addressing Misconceptions: Many individuals fear that becoming an organ donor could put their lives at risk in medical settings. In reality, only 1% of registered organ donors pass in a way that allows for organ donation, while thousands remain on transplant waiting lists. The Importance of Storytelling: Means emphasizes the need to humanize the organ donation process by sharing real-life experiences to build trust and awareness. Encouraging Open Dialogue: Andi asks Means how he would approach someone hesitant about organ donation. Means stresses the importance of respecting different perspectives while sharing personal experiences to help others make informed decisions. Final Reflections: Andi expresses gratitude for the meaningful discussion and appreciates Means' insights on business, legacy, and organ donation advocacy.   Key Takeaways: Means Cameron's journey as an entrepreneur reflects his deep commitment to identity, community, and legacy.  His personal experiences with organ donation have fueled his advocacy for increasing awareness and addressing misconceptions. Andi and Means then dig deeper into educating ourselves and others about how organ donation can help address mistrust and save lives and the importance of humanizing the organ donation process by sharing personal stories and the faces who make it more relatable and trustworthy. Tweetable Quotes:   “Cincinnati needed something for the culture, something that spoke to our culture, to give us something to be proud about, to speak about our heritage, and for not to just be in private rooms, but for us to be able to take it out into the world. “ - Means Cameron “So the idea of BlaCkOWned™ came out of me, wanting to have ownership of who I am and never losing it.” - Means Cameron “And so BlaCkOWned™ wasn't just about a black-owned business. It was about owning who we are as a people, our culture and the name black owned, just came to me. “ - Means Cameron “One of the most challenging things in our community is that we believe that if we become organ donors, that someone is going to take our organs if we ever are sick or in a doctor's bed and our life is on the line.” - Means Cameron “ I guess the best thing I can do for anyone that is on the fence is just to share with them my own experiences. “ - Means Cameron Resources: https://getoffthelist.org/ https://www.networkforhope.org/ https://www.networkforhope.org/about-us/ https://www.facebook.com/NetworkForHopeOPO https://www.youtube.com/@NetworkforHope. https://aopo.org/

What are the Ethical Implications of Organ Donation?

In Episode 129 of the Diary of a Kidney Warrior Podcast, released in the lead-up to World Kidney Day, host Dee Moore sits down with Benjamin, a resilient Kidney Warrior whose story is a testament to faith, hope, and determination.   During a family visit to Barbados in 2020, Benjamin discovered he had dangerously high blood pressure — a moment that would mark the beginning of his own kidney disease journey. At the time, Benjamin was already caring for a loved one living with kidney disease, making the diagnosis even more overwhelming.   In this inspiring episode, Benjamin shares the emotional and physical challenges of navigating kidney failure, including the shocking reality of seeing his kidney function plummet to just 6%. Through it all, his unwavering faith and the support of his loved ones carried him from dialysis to receiving a life-saving kidney transplant.   Incredibly, just one week after marrying his wife, Benjamin received the call that a donor kidney was available — a turning point that changed everything.   As World Kidney Day approaches, Benjamin's story highlights the importance of self-care, early detection, organ donation, and maintaining hope in the face of adversity. Whether you are a Kidney Warrior, supporting a loved one, or simply want to learn more about kidney health, this episode is a powerful reminder that choosing to live with purpose and gratitude can transform any journey.   Follow Diary of a Kidney Warrior

February is American Heart Month, and in light of that, we're bringing back an episode about a group here at Stanford Engineering that's developing 3D printing methods for human tissues and organs, a process known as bioprinting. Motivated in part by the critical need for heart transplants, Mark Skylar-Scott and his team are specifically working to bioprint tissues of the human heart. It may sound like science fiction, but it's actually just another example of the groundbreaking research we do here. We hope you'll take another listen and be inspired by the possibilities.Have a question for Russ? Send it our way in writing or via voice memo, and it might be featured on an upcoming episode.

Carol Offen and Betsy Crais know all too well the exhilaration, separately, of being a living donor and a 2-time organ recipient.Carol's adult, college-age son was in need of a kidney. Carol became his donor. Betsy Crais's evaluation for gastric problems in her thirties revealed polycystic kidney disease. When she was in her fifties she became the grateful recipient of a kidney donation from a living donor. Many years later, she required a 2nd kidney and, to everyone's surprise, a liver. Again a living donor stepped up to donate a kidney but because she needed a liver at the same time, she needed a deceased donor. Not receiving them would have committed her to dialysis indefinitely while also risking death from liver failure.These two expressive women knew each other since their daughters childhoods. They came together again after their own kidney experiences when they decided to collaborate on authoring a book that would lay bare the plight of recipients and the path of becoming a living donor."There is a 6-8 yr. wait for a deceased kidney donor and 90,000 people on the waiting list."CONNECT WITH CAROL & BETSY:Carol: carol.kidneydonorhelp@gmail.com; her website: www.kidneydonorhelp.comBetsy: bcrais@med.unc.eduBook: The Insider's Guide to Living Kidney Donation: Everything You Need to Know If You Give (or Get) the Greatest Gift

Christmas has always been a meaningful time for Rev. Kristie Askew, a pastor in the United Methodist Church living in Mathews County. She gave birth to her oldest daughter, Brianna Nicole Sulc, on December 23, 1997, and brought her home on Christmas day. The season also marks a time of great sorrow. On Christmas Day 2016, a reckless driver crashed into Brianna's car as she was driving to a family dinner. She suffered severe injuries, and died several days later in the hospital.   Brianna had chosen to be an organ donor. Her choice gave new life to a man suffering from liver failure and helped two other organ recipients.  “I've learned over the years that the grief that I experienced from her loss really drives me in my ministry with people,” said Askew, who grew up in Gloucester. “Not that they have to have the same kind of loss, but they've just experienced loss in a lot of different ways, whether it's the loss of a child or a parent, loss of a job, and a loss of a relationship.“

Sarah is thinking of going on the dating apps, and we are psyched! But we hope she doesn't end up married to a hologram like some "performance artist" that we hate. We talk about a reality show from the aughts that had people competing for a donated kidney from a terminally ill woman that turned out to be a hoax and was meant to raise awareness about organ donation. We learn about a man who loved a bakery only to find out later that the owner was his biological mom. We discuss a New York Times article that explains the "grief" some people are feeling when their children choose not to have children, which means they won't be grandparents.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comJoin our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:For 10% off your order, head to https://www.jackblack.com/braincandy and use code BRAINCANDYCancel your unwanted subscriptions by going to https://rocketmoney.com/braincandyGo to https://www.greenchef.com/braincandy50 and use code braincandy50 for 50% off your first box plus 20% off your next two months!

After filmmaker Penny Lane decided to donate a kidney to a stranger, it took three years and a complex, often infuriating, sometimes terrifying process to make it happen. Along the way, being a filmmaker, she eventually decided to chronicle her experience and explore the question: How can a choice that seems so obvious to the donor seem so strange to everyone else? Listen as she tells EconTalk's Russ Roberts what she learned, what's still a mystery, and what she hopes we'll all take away from her story.

Sarah is grappling with her diminished enthusiasm for sPoOoOoOoky season and the reason she's less into it these days. We hear about the women's basketball Olympic team from 1996, and how they ushered in the creation of the WNBA, and the tragedy that befell one of the gold medalists. We discuss the British game of Conker and the championship scandal that is cracking us up (pun intended). And Sarah's got a theory about what really happened... We learn about a horrific organ donation story that will make you question the whole process. We hear what European countries that are the most...romantic (horny) and why Sarah's theory about this might be wrong. We discuss the men who are dating AI robots and why they are misguided in their approach to handling their loneliness and fears of rejection. Plus, Sarah asked ChatGPT to tell her something about herself and she was brought to tears with its answer.Listen to more podcasts like this: https://wavepodcastnetwork.comJoin our Candy Club, shop our merch, sign-up for our free newsletter, & more by visiting The Brain Candy Podcast website: https://www.thebraincandypodcast.comConnect with us on social media:BCP Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastSusie's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterSarah's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBCP on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodSponsors:This episode is sponsored by/brought to you by BetterHelp.

The Catechism looks at matters relating to scientific research, bodily integrity, and the dead with the lens of the dignity of the human person. Fr. Mike helps us navigate the Catechism's teachings by acknowledging science and technology as a good while emphasizing restrictions and conditions to ensure respect for the dignity of persons. Today's readings are Catechism paragraphs 2292-2301. This episode has been found to be in conformity with the Catechism by the Institute on the Catechism, under the Subcommittee on the Catechism, USCCB.

Organ donation is always a universal good... right? This conversation is the type that has the potential to completely challenge previously held beliefs. Are brain-dead patients TRULY brain dead? Are the organs being harvested from someone who REALLY has no life left in them? Heidi Klessig, MD, tells us her own story and how she came to have her own beliefs challenged, and explains why she is now dedicated to the informed consent of all registered organ donors, those considering donating their organs, their families, and the recipients of transplanted organs. The question we all really need to ask is... When is somebody truly dead?
