Episode 18: Little v. Llano County Little, et al. v. Llano County, et al., argued en banc before the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit on September 24, 2024. Argued by Jonathan F. Mitchell (on behalf of Llano County, et al.), Henry Charles Whitaker (on behalf of Amici Curiae States supporting Llano County), and Matthew Borden (on behalf of Little, et al.). Statement of Issues Presented for Review, from the Brief of Plaintiffs-Appellees: 1. Did the District Court clearly err in finding that Defendants removed 17 books from the public library because of their viewpoint and content, when the books did not meet the library's own criteria for “weeding” books, Defendants' internal communications referred to the books as “pornographic filth,” and Defendants offered demonstrably false testimony and pretextual explanations to justify their removal? 2. Did the District Court act within its discretion when it issued a preliminary injunction restoring the status quo by preventing Defendants from hiding the 17 books from library patrons until the merits of the case are decided? 3. Can Defendants moot the need for an injunction by having their lawyer buy the 17 books in question and place them in a non-public room in the library, where their presence is not listed in the library catalogue, is not advertised to patrons, and is not communicated by the library through the channels normally employed to tell library patrons that books are available? From the dissent by Judge Stuart Kyle Duncan in the vacated panel opinion (citations omitted): The commission hanging in my office says “Judge,” not “Librarian.” Imagine my surprise, then, to learn that my two esteemed colleagues have appointed themselves co-chairs of every public library board across the Fifth Circuit. In that new role, they have issued “rules” for when librarians can remove books from the shelves and when they cannot. While I do not doubt my colleagues' good intentions, these “rules” are a disaster. They lack any basis in law or common sense. And applying them will be a nightmare. Look no further than today's decision. The two judges in the majority, while agreeing on the rules, cannot agree on how they apply to over half of the 17 books in this case. So, according to Judge Wiener, a library cannot remove It's Perfectly Normal, a sex-education book for 10-year-olds that has cartoons of people having sex and masturbating. But according to Judge Southwick, removing that book is “likely permissible,” at least “[a]t this stage of the case,” because it contains “sexually explicit material that [i]s not appropriate for children.” Evidently, both judges would not allow a librarian to remove racist books—unless they have a “poor circulation history.” They differ, however, on how the rules apply to a series of children's books about flatulence. And so we have a genuine first in the Federal Reporter: federal judges debating whether the First Amendment lets a library remove a book called (I kid you not) Larry the Farting Leprechaun. This journey into jurisprudential inanity should never have been launched. There is a simple answer to the question posed by this case: A public library's choice of some books for its collection, and its rejection of others, is government speech.

Did you know feelings like worry are our brains' way of protecting us? However, they can become problematic when they trigger repetitive negative thoughts.  In this episode, Matt O'Neill interviews neuroscientist Alex Korb to discuss how common emotions like worry, anxiety, anger, and self-criticism are natural brain functions, not personal failings.  Learn simple strategies – backed by neuroscience – to improve mood and happiness. Understand why our brains experience these emotions and learn how you can manage them through mindfulness instead of judgment. This episode will leave you feeling empowered rather than critical of yourself.  Here are some power takeaways from today's conversation:  Why the brain experiences emotions like worry and self-criticism  Understanding different brain wiring and personality traits Managing emotions through mindfulness and self-compassion The importance of exercise, sleep, gratitude, and taking action [03:22] The Purpose of Worry and Self-Criticism Worry evolved as a brain mechanism to avoid threats by thinking through problems and solutions, utilizing the prefrontal cortex similarly to playing chess. The amygdala provides emotions like anxiety to motivate protection. Therefore, feelings such as worry and self-criticism stem naturally from how our brains are formed for survival purposes, rather than being inherently negative traits. [07:29] Unique Brain Wiring and the Value of Self-Acceptance We all think and act differently based on natural variations. Instead of stressing over what you can't change, focus on your strengths and what really matters to you. If something gets in your way, look at tweaking your approach rather than feeling stuck with who you are.  [20:40] The Power of Emotion Labeling and Self-Compassion Simply stating your emotion, like "I'm feeling angry", lets the prefrontal cortex regulate the amygdala. Labeling emotions mindfully while showing self-compassion, not judgment, replaces unhelpful rumination or avoidance with healthy emotional processing. This optimizes the brain's natural regulation abilities. [29:00] Simple Habits for a Happier Brain Alex highlights exercise, quality sleep, gratitude, and taking action as important daily habits for brain health and happiness. Small amounts of activity, optimized sleep, focusing on positives through gratitude, and controlling what's within our power can make a big impact per neuroscience. Notable quotes: [05:59] Worry in itself isn't a problem. Obsessively worrying is a problem. [06:13] [17:46] You can't necessarily inherently change your brain's automatic reactivity. [17:54] [18:17] Having a brain that is emotionally reactive is not a bad thing. What makes it a bad thing is the habits that you've programmed into it that are automatically triggered.

His book “The Upward Spiral” explains what happens in the brain during depression and provides strategies for improving mood based on scientific research.

Professor Dean Radin is one of the world's leading authorities on psychic phenomena. He is the chief scientist at IONS, the Institute of Noetic Sciences. “I don't like the word ‘paranormal' when referring to these experiences”, Dean says. “Paranormal phenomena cover such a huge range of things that are strange, that it tends to collapse psychic experiences into things like search for Bigfoot or the Loch Ness monster. But psychic phenomena, like synchronicities, are extremely common.” Are psychic phenomena akin to spiritual experiences? “I would say there is an overlap.” The overlap, he explains, is when people say they have felt a strange, very intimate sense of connection with other people or with things elsewhere. “The line between science and spirituality is arbitrary. There is a spectrum.” A synchronicity can be described as ‘smart luck', as opposed to ‘dumb luck'. “In many ways the kind of research that I do attempts to evoke synchronicities in the laboratory. What some would call a coincidence we would call a synchronicity when we study for instance telepathy”, Dean says. As we record this episode, Dean Radin is conducting an experiment aimed to test the quantum observer effect. “To test it properly it takes an act of subjective awareness of what is going on. It is correlated to brain activity, but it is not physical. Maybe that's what will break the chain and cause the measurement to actually occur.” “If the results are replicated in lots of different laboratories, it directly informs an outstanding and long standing problem in the interpretation of quantum mechanics.” The ‘Sigil' experiment, as it is called, is due to be finished by the end of April. The placebo effect is basically the same phenomenon – mind affecting matter. “Can we see differences in the behavior of cells, be it plants or the human body, depending on what people are beaming mentally at them? The answer is yes.” “For everything from photons, to chemical processes, to cells, to small animals, to human physiology and maybe all the way up to the global level, we do see that consciousness seems to be involved at every single stage.” And yet there are so many skeptics, and so many psi researchers are being mocked. “In mainstream science, these things are taboo. I know many academics have these experiences themselves, but you can't talk about it, at the risk of your career”, Dean says. “Materialism is an extremely powerful worldview. So powerful that it has given rise to the technologies we have today. But it leaves out something.” However, in the last 30 years, the philosophy of idealism has begun to penetrate within the sciences, according to Dean Radin. Idealism posits that consciousness is fundamental and that matter arises from it. “You see it in physics, in psychology, in neuroscience and in mathematics.” There is a materialist ‘police' that is active on Wikipedia and in public debate. But it is a vociferous minority, Dean thinks. “They are only maintaining the taboo. But taboos don't last forever. When you talk to academics privately after a couple of beers, everyone eventually reports they have experiences of this kind, and most are actually interested.” So, if idealism is penetrating science and things seem to be changing, what will be the final nail in the coffin for the taboo? Judging from the brief opening in consciousness studies that was seen in the 60s and 70s, Dean thinks the renewed research on psychedelics might be that nail. Another candidate is quantum biology. Scientists now suggest that the brain operates in quantum ways. “That was a very fringy idea 30 years ago.” Dean's personal website IONS website

As parents, it falls upon us to educate and mentor them in responsibly navigating boundaries, identity, privacy, and reputation.  For this episode, we bring you Devorah Heitner, who, in her most recent book titled Growing Up in Public: Coming of Age in the Digital World, touches on many important strategies for guiding our children to live in a digital world where privacy is nonexistent and judgment is unavoidable.  Devorah's book could not have come at a better time and is a tremendously valuable resource for parents, kids, and community members to draw from because she offers so much advice on having meaningful conversations with your kids that foster trust and create connectedness.  Listen and Learn:  What motivated Devorah to explore the idea that our children's childhoods are much more public than ours? What impact do constant surveillance and digital exposure have on child development? Tips for guiding children to make thoughtful decisions in the digital age Why a fear-based approach to protecting your child's safety can breed increased secrecy and distrust How to move from monitoring to mentoring when teaching your kids how to wisely engage with technology  Educating your children when it comes to exposure to sex and pornography online Why it's important to talk with your kids about the risk of sexting and practicing safe-sexting  Devorah shares her recommendations for kids' educational resources What is intrinsic motivation, and how does it relate to our modern world's omnipresent grade apps?

Bonnie and Adam have an in-depth discussion about the ins and outs (pun intended) of “the sex talk”—the optimal time to have it with your kids, and why honesty is always the best policy. The talk can be really tough for parents who feel embarrassed and uncomfortable. Too often parents wait until embarrassment is high on both sides, so it never happens. Enter the internet. Embarrassment gets in the way of providing good, healthy, honest information about perfectly normal things that happen to our bodies. When we normalize the whole experience, chances are children will be far more responsible when the time comes. A few books to help you initiate talking to your kids about sex:Where Did I Come From by Peter MayleA Child is Born and How Was I Born, both by Lennart NilssonHappy Birthday!, It's Perfectly Normal, and It's So Amazing by Robie Harris, Michael EmberleyMommy Laid an Egg by Babette ColeWhat's the Big Secret: Talking about Sex with Girls and Boys by Laurie Krasny Brown and Mark BrownBonnie Harris, MS.Ed., director of Connective Parenting, 30+ years of coaching, teaching, and writing for parents. https://linktr.ee/bonnieharrisparentingWebsite: bonnieharris.com Email: bh@bonnieharris.comProduced, mixed, and scored by Echo Finch www.echofinch.com

We start off by admitting our own faulty analysis of a previous article. Turns out that an Evangelical claim of persecution wasn't another case of "crying wolf." So we apologize for putting our need to be entertaining too far forward. We take a brief look at a few articles which run the gamut. We talk about yet another church leaving the United Methodist Church, a pastor who allegedly shot his son-in-law, and a Christian "celebrity" who mishandled their social media. The challenge with these last two articles is that they have left out information which would have been helpful for analysis. So we fully encourage your comments if you see it differently or know more details than we had at this time. We can figure this together! You can only heal the things you admit are broken.
