What if the key to improving student behavior and strengthening school culture starts with how adults care for themselves and each other? In this dynamic Aspire to Lead conversation, Charle Peck joins Joshua Stamper to reveal how a new cohort model is reshaping the way educators care for their mental health and support one another. Charle shares how districts are forming dedicated teams of teachers, counselors, social workers, and administrators who come together to learn nine essential skills rooted in self awareness, relational understanding, and collaborative growth. Listeners will hear stories from real cohorts as Charle and Joshua explore why meaningful reflection, practical regulation strategies, and simple everyday tools are helping staff feel more grounded and more confident. From body scans to rapid resets to intentional communication shifts, this episode highlights approaches that educators can immediately bring into their school day.

In this Thanksgiving special of Challenge Accepted, Frank and Jonathan celebrate the Belchers by ranking their top Bob's Burgers Thanksgiving episodes and crowning a definitive winner. They break down why the holiday episodes hit so hard, talk about the emotional gut punches hidden inside the jokes, and revisit the wild chaos of turkeys, hoarding, broken ovens, and cursed outdoor cooking. The guys also reveal the results of their "Turkey Brawl" social media tournament and wrap up with a few extra Thanksgiving watch recommendations to keep your holiday cozy and geeky. Bob's Burgers Thanksgiving - CA Timestamps and Topics 00:00 - Welcome and Thanksgiving setup Shout out to Thomas and Cristina on their new baby, and intro to the Bob's Burgers Thanksgiving episode ranking concept. Bob's Burgers Thanksgiving - CA 01:00 - How the episode works Frank explains the format: each host picks their top three Thanksgiving episodes, they talk themes, favorite moments, and what Bob's Burgers "teaches" about the holiday. 02:00 - Jonathan's #3: "Thanks-hoarding" (Season 8) They unpack Teddy's hoarding storyline, his emotional backstory, and how the episode balances relatable anxiety with Belcher chaos and big heart. Bob's Burgers Thanksgiving - CA 03:45 - Frank's #3: "Dawn of the Peck" Discussion of the "bird uprising" Black Friday marathon, pecking order jokes, Linda's power arc, and background gags like the infamous "Tickle Boat." 06:00 - Jonathan's #2: "Gail Making Bob Sled" (Season 6) Bob's snowbound nightmare with Gail, Mr. Business, and the inflatable pool sled gets a full breakdown, including how Gail's dramatics nearly kill Bob for absolutely no reason. Bob's Burgers Thanksgiving - CA 08:15 - Frank's #2: "I Bob Your Pardon" They talk about the turkey pardon scandal, Linda fangirling over the mayor, the caper to rescue the doomed turkey, and the reporter who gets dragged into Belcher chaos. 11:20 - Jonathan's #1: "Now We're Not Cooking With Gas" (Season 10) The guys dig into Bob's survivalist fantasy crashing into reality when the gas goes out, the backyard fire pit disaster, the fire department interventions, and the surprisingly perfect turkey under all the char. Bob's Burgers Thanksgiving - CA 14:20 - Frank's #1: "Turkey in a Can" They revisit Bob's allergy meds, the mystery of the toilet turkeys, Gail's cat, Tina's struggle to be "grown up," and the romantic misunderstanding with the deli guy. 18:00 - The Turkey Brawl results and final Top 3 Frank reveals the social media tournament winners: "Turkey in a Can" "An Indecent Thanksgiving Proposal" "I Bob Your Pardon" Then he and Jonathan lock in their final ranking for the definitive Bob's Burgers Thanksgiving list. Bob's Burgers Thanksgiving - CA 20:10 - What to watch on Thanksgiving Beyond Bob's Burgers, they recommend Thanksgiving viewing like Planes, Trains and Automobiles, Addams Family Values, and some cozy Westerns, plus the usual football and early Christmas movie season. 21:37 - Outro and thanks Wrap up with holiday well wishes, a reminder to check out Hulu's "Bob's Giving" collection, and a call to leave those 5 star reviews.  Key Takeaways Bob's Burgers Thanksgiving episodes nail the mix of heartfelt family moments and unhinged holiday chaos, which is why they have basically become comfort viewing for the hosts. "Thanks-hoarding" uses Teddy's clutter problem to explore how childhood trauma and a fixation on "fixing" things can leave you emotionally stuck. "Dawn of the Peck" turns a discount turkey disaster into a full bird uprising, while still keeping the focus on the Belchers' reactions and one liners. "Gail Making Bob Sled" shows how far Bob will go for family, even when Gail is clearly the source of her own drama. "I Bob Your Pardon" works as both a goofy turkey heist and a small town political scandal, with the Belchers accidentally blowing open a fake pardon scheme. "Now We're Not Cooking With Gas" captures Bob's stubborn perfectionism as he tries to salvage Thanksgiving with a makeshift outdoor oven. "Turkey in a Can" stands out as the ultimate Thanksgiving episode, blending mystery, character insight, and one of the show's funniest running misunderstandings. The Challenge Accepted "Turkey Brawl" confirmed what the hosts already felt: the Thanksgiving run of Bob's Burgers is one of the strongest holiday traditions in modern animation. Memorable Quotes "He never has a fully just easy Happy Thanksgiving. He's supposed to cook and eat." "Bob almost dies in the snow, and she's just playing around the whole time." "It's not the first time I had a special baloney sandwich out of the toilet. It'll be the first time I don't use gloves." "No, I'm straight. I mean, almost straight. I mean, you'd like me."

Professional therapists from our community join host Evan Gratz on the Point Loma Church Podcast to further discuss the topics covered in the Hard Feelings Sermon Series. Look for "Point Loma Church" wherever you get your podcasts. The podcast is also available in video form on our YouTube Channel Evan Gratz, Director of Community Life, welcomes our fifth professional, Emeritus Professor of Counseling at San Diego State University, Dr. Emery Cummins to the Hard Feelings Podcast, where they discuss emotional maturity. Emotional Maturity: "Becoming Whole in Christ" sermon by Rev. Karla Shaw Additional resources related to this week's topic: 1. Peck, M. Scott. The Road Less Traveled. Simon & Schuster, 1979. This extraordinary book begins with the statement, "Life is difficult." Life was never meant to be easy and is essentially a series of problems that can either be solved or ignored. He shows how these techniques enable the pain of problems to be worked through and systematically solved, thereby producing growth. He argues that most people try to avoid the pain of dealing with their problems, when it is through facing the pain of problem-solving that life becomes more satisfying and meaningful. 2. Frankl, Viktor. Man's Search for Meaning. Beacon Press, 2000 First published in 1946, Dr. Frankl recounts his experiences surviving the death camps of the Holocaust and describes how it gave him a new understanding of the way people find meaning for their lives. According to Frankl, one can find meaning in work, in love for another, and in the courage required to endure suffering. While passing through the darkest pits of the human capacity for evil, he didn't emerge angry, resentful, or nihilistic; rather, he was encouraged, optimistic, and hopeful by observing what he describes as man's ultimate freedom and responsibility—to choose one's atitude in any given set of circumstances. 3. Martin, James. The Jesuit Guide to (Almost) Everything. HarperOne, 2012. While not primarily addressed to the non-believer, non-believers will profit from reading this book for an intelligent, rational explanation on why it is important to pray, to examine one's actions, and to hold those actions up to a higher standard. Martin is unlike most contemporary American religious writers. Rather than offering words of disapproval and judgment, he writes words of understanding, wisdom, justice, acceptance, and love. The Jesuit Guide is not only filled with helpful advice on living the examined life, but it faithfully describes Christianity as a place of hope, faith, and caring.

Chuck Todd breaks down the ongoing government shutdown and the deep dysfunction gripping Washington. With the shutdown dragging into late October, Trump is reportedly tapping private donors to pay the military, while Speaker Mike Johnson keeps the House out of session — a move Chuck calls a major political blunder. As Trump consolidates control over both the presidency and Congress, Republicans appear more focused on shielding him than exercising oversight. Meanwhile, the Oversight Committee under James Comer has devolved into partisan theater, investigating the Bidens while ignoring blatant corruption in Trump’s orbit. Chuck argues that without real congressional checks, America risks drifting toward the kind of pre-revolutionary rot the Founders warned about — where power, privilege, and impunity rule unchecked. Then, filmmaker Raoul Peck joins Chuck to discuss his powerful new documentary Orwell: 2+2=5 — an exploration of truth, propaganda, and power in the age of Trump. Peck, whose work often examines systems of control and colonialism, draws from Orwell’s life and letters to reveal how 1984 was never just a warning about the future — it was a reflection of the present. He and Chuck unpack how doublespeak, “alternative facts,” and the rewriting of history have crept into modern democracies, from the U.S. to Russia, and what Orwell’s insights reveal about the fragility of truth today. Peck also reflects on his own Haitian roots and how the legacy of colonialism still shapes global politics, from America’s interference in Haiti to its uneasy role as an arbiter of democracy abroad. The conversation turns to the media’s complicity in enabling authoritarian narratives, the dangers of AI-driven misinformation, and why reclaiming truth — and teaching future generations to defend it — may be the defining struggle of our time. Finally, he hops in the ToddCast Time Machine to revisit the publication of the Federalist Papers and why their lessons are extremely pertinent in the Trump era, answers questions in the “Ask Chuck” segment and gives his college football recap.

In this episode of the Chuck ToddCast, filmmaker Raoul Peck joins Chuck to discuss his powerful new documentary Orwell: 2+2=5 — an exploration of truth, propaganda, and power in the age of Trump. Peck, whose work often examines systems of control and colonialism, draws from Orwell’s life and letters to reveal how 1984 was never just a warning about the future — it was a reflection of the present. He and Chuck unpack how doublespeak, “alternative facts,” and the rewriting of history have crept into modern democracies, from the U.S. to Russia, and what Orwell’s insights reveal about the fragility of truth today. Peck also reflects on his own Haitian roots and how the legacy of colonialism still shapes global politics, from America’s interference in Haiti to its uneasy role as an arbiter of democracy abroad. The conversation turns to the media’s complicity in enabling authoritarian narratives, the dangers of AI-driven misinformation, and why reclaiming truth — and teaching future generations to defend it — may be the defining struggle of our time.

In the 3rd installment of our Possession Series, we turn to one of the most controversial figures to bridge psychology and the paranormal: Dr. M. Scott Peck, psychiatrist, best-selling author of The Road Less Traveled, and—later in life—a reluctant believer in demonic possession.This episode explores how Peck's clinical background shaped his approach to exorcism, the patients who challenged his skepticism, and the ways he sought to reconcile science, faith, and evil. We'll look at his case studies, his insistence that genuine possession is rare, and his cautionary stance toward both blind belief and total disbelief. Then we'll ask what his work means for modern discussions of mental health, spirituality, and the human shadow.

This episode was recorded live on October 17, 2025 at The Adrienne Arsht Center for the Performing Arts in Miami before the opening of Miami City Ballet's 40th anniversary season. This pre-performance talk coordinated with the all Peck program that the company opened their season with, which included "Year of The Rabbit," "Chutes and Ladders," and "Heatscape."Listen to Conversations on Dance ad-free on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/cw/conversationsondanceLINKS:Website: conversationsondancepod.comInstagram: @conversationsondanceCOD MerchListen to COD on YouTubeJoin our email listSponsorship information Hosted on Acast.

It's easy to glibly identify what's happening as “Orwellian”:  that we live in an era of “newspeak,” that we have reached the point at which the depths of the surveillance state of 1984 seems all too possible, maybe even already here. But in his new “Orwell: 2 + 2 = 5”, Raoul Peck (“I am Not Your Negro”, “Exterminate All the Brutes”, “Ernest Cole: Lost and Found”) digs much deeper into these possibilities, demonstrating how Orwell's words resonated throughout the first half of the 20th century, only to become all that much relevant in our own day.   Drawing widely from Orwell's corpus--not just the later novels, 1984 and Animal Farm but from earlier work and Orwell's essays as well--Peck gives us a sense of a mind at work, seeking to bring together art and politics to reveal his world's contradictions.  And by fashioning as a spine to the film Orwell's final months on the remote island of Jura as well as in sanitariums and hospitals and tuberculosis destroyed his lungs, all while striving to finish his final novel, 1984, Peck creates a sense of the mortal urgency facing Orwell then and us now.   “Orwell: 2 + 2 = 5” is now playing in theaters.   Follow: @topdocspod on Instagram and X/twitter   The Presenting Sponsor of "Top Docs" is Netflix.

Film director Raoul Peck grew up in Haiti and the Congo, and is no stranger to authoritarianism. So it was an easy “yes” when he was offered access to author George Orwell's entire body of work, from the original manuscript of “1984” to letters and journals. The result is “Orwell: 2+2=5,” a documentary about how a man named Eric Arthur Blair became the timeless face of truth. Peck talks to Audie about his take on Orwell's legacy and what it still has to teach us.   --  This episode was Produced by Madeleine Thompson and Lori Galarreta Senior Producer: Matt Martinez  Technical Director: Dan Dzula   Executive Producer:  Steve Lickteig  Learn more about your ad choices.

Today on the Conversations on Dance podcast we are thrilled to have two fabulous guests: Maria Calegari and Bart Cook. We have have both Maria and Bart on the podcast before, but this married couple danced together and now sets ballets together, so we knew we had to get them on the podcast together to hear more about their careers and their work as repetiteurs for the Balanchine Trust and for the Robbins Trust. We talk through their experiences dancing together, then some of the specific ballets that they have set together: basically it's just an hour and a half of bunhead time. Maria & Bart are currently offering virtual and in-person private lessons for pre-professional and professional ballet dancers ages 15 and up. Lessons are structured to focus on your specific artistic goals to identify the stylistic and technical nuances that you can use to improve your movement quality, advice that goes beyond the typical class format.

Welcome to New England Legends From the Vault – FtV Episode 134 –  Jeff Belanger and Ray Auger head to Peck's Hollow in Franklin, Connecticut, in search of Micah Rood's former farm and a cursed apple tree that dates back to an alleged murder from the early 1700s. For many decades, folks in eastern Connecticut had to wonder when they bit into a Mike apple if those red specs were just pigmentation, or drops of blood from a murdered French peddler.
