In this episode of the Better Learning Podcast, we dive deep (pun intended) into Finding Nemo - the animated adventure that's equal parts heartwarming, hilarious, and insightful. As part of our series on school-related films, we explore what this Pixar classic can tell us about the student experience, the importance of trust and independence, and how schools can support every kind of learner on their journey. Joining host Kevin Stoller is co-host Carla Cummins and special guest Brenda Swirczynski from Pfluger Architects, bringing both educational and design perspectives to the table. Together, they unpack the film's themes of overprotection, resilience, and growth — and how those same challenges show up in real-world school environments. From Marlin's struggle to let go, to Nemo's need to prove himself, the conversation begins to ask: What can educators, school leaders, and architects learn from this undersea tale? How can schools create environments where students feel safe to explore, fail, and thrive?   Takeaways: Marlin's instinct to shield Nemo from danger mirrors how schools and parents can sometimes overcorrect in the name of safety. Just as Nemo's “lucky fin” made him different — but not less capable — the conversation highlights the importance of designing spaces and systems that accommodate a wide range of learners, abilities, and personalities. From Dory's unorthodox support to the Tank Gang's teamwork, the film underscores the power of collaboration — a theme echoed in the episode's discussion around how architects, educators, and designers must work together to build student-centered spaces.   About Brenda Swirczynski Brenda is a lifelong educator with experience in a variety of educational applications. As a classroom teacher, outdoor educator, and university instructor, she has had the privilege to collaborate with varied audiences on multi-disciplinary projects. Brenda possesses expertise in designing curricula, inquiry-based learning, and educational experiences for audiences with diverse backgrounds.   Brenda received her Bachelor's degree in Education and Master's in Environmental Science from the University of North Texas.

The new Lilo & Stitch is mostly live-action and retells the original Disney animated film's story of two orphaned Hawaiian sisters and the chaotic alien who upends their lives. The movie deviates from the original in many ways, but the central story is a tale of sisterhood and found family with lots of rowdy chaos along the way. The cast includes Maia Kealoha, Sydney Elizebeth Agudong, Zach Galifianakis, and Chris Sanders returns as the voice of Stitch.In honor of Toy Story's 30th anniversary, we're ranking the Pixar movies.

What if joy doesn't mean “being happy”? What if joy is what carries you through the pain?This powerful message uses Pixar's Inside Out to unpack a grown-up truth: joy and sadness are not enemies—they're partners in navigating the real woods of life. When everything in Riley's world falls apart, Joy learns a hard lesson: real joy comes through sadness, not by avoiding it. In the same way, the Bible commands us not to “be happy” all the time, but to rejoice—to choose confidence that Jesus is still working, even in the darkest places of our lives.This isn't just a kid's movie. This is a soul check. And the faith shift in this message is deep: joy isn't faking a smile through the pain—it's trusting Jesus hasn't walked out on you. Real joy is grown-up joy. It knows heartbreak. It leans on Jesus. And it learns that joy and sadness don't cancel each other out—they walk hand-in-hand.

But is it really worth it to stick around?

The future of the Mission: Impossible movies was up in the air after the third film, with Paramount Pictures and Tom Cruise parting ways. It took some bridge building to get a fourth movie going, and even then, Mission: Impossible - Ghost Protocol would bring with it changes. Plus, a contingency plan to replace Tom Cruise as the figurehead of the franchise going forward... Pixar meanwhile, around the same time, was working on an animated movie called Newt, that to this day remains the only time it announced a film, and then abandoned it.

The fellas welcome renowned clinical psychologist Dr. Lisa Damour, PhD, to explore the emotional complexities of adolescence. Dr. Damour shares her experience consulting on Pixar's *Inside Out 2*, where she helped shape the portrayal of new emotions like Anxiety, Embarrassment, Envy, and Ennui as 13-year-old Riley navigates her teenage years. Then, Jon breaks out his homework and dives into Dr. Damour's acclaimed books—*Untangled*, *Under Pressure*, and *The Emotional Lives of Teenagers*—which offer invaluable guidance for parents raising adolescents . She also discusses the intriguing Radish/Cookie experiment, shedding light on the importance of self-control and emotional regulation in teens.

What if joy doesn't mean “being happy”? What if joy is what carries you through the pain?This powerful message uses Pixar's Inside Out to unpack a grown-up truth: joy and sadness are not enemies—they're partners in navigating the real woods of life. When everything in Riley's world falls apart, Joy learns a hard lesson: real joy comes through sadness, not by avoiding it. In the same way, the Bible commands us not to “be happy” all the time, but to rejoice—to choose confidence that Jesus is still working, even in the darkest places of our lives.

En el año 1995, Steve Jobs fue despedido de Apple, la empresa que él mismo había fundado. Para muchos fue una tragedia, un punto final. Sin embargo, él mismo declaró que ese despido fue “la mejor cosa que le pudo haber pasado”. Fue entonces cuando fundó Pixar y NeXT, dos proyectos que no solo marcaron su regreso triunfal, sino que también revolucionaron la tecnología y el cine. De manera similar, en la Biblia, Pedro negó a Jesús, pero fue restaurado para liderar la iglesia. Moisés huyó tras cometer un error, pero Dios lo usó para liberar a Su pueblo. José fue vendido como esclavo antes de convertirse en gobernador de Egipto. Por lo tanto, no todo fracaso es final. En las manos de Dios, incluso nuestros tropiezos se convierten en parte del camino. Él redime, restaura y reorienta. De modo que, si hoy sientes que fracasaste, no te detengas allí. Entrégaselo a Dios y confía en que Él aún puede hacer algo glorioso con tu historia. La Biblia dice en Isaías 61:3: “A ordenar que a los afligidos de Sion se les dé gloria en lugar de ceniza...” (RV1960).

On this episode, we talk about a huge space adventure with heart and love, Pixar's WALL-E. We talk about Disney, our top Pixar movies, the story correlating to current day, and much much more!

A recent survey asked 3,000 Americans what they think the coolest job is in each state. Pennsylvania's coolest job was chocolate scientist at Hershey, while California's was animator at Pixar. And Illinois? The survey found that respondents thought the coolest work you can do in Illinois is be a paleontologist for the Field Museum. But what does a day in the life of a paleontologist look like? And how do they really feel about the Jurassic Park movies? Reset talks with Field Museum paleontologists to find out more.

In this episode, Dr. Manning shares some key takeaways from the 2025 PECAA Annual Meeting and the power of storytelling. Key takeaways:Humans are far more likely to remember details, facts, and information when they're wrapped in a story v. just shared individually. In fact, facts are up to 22x more likely to be remembered when they're wrapped into a narrative than shared individually.Humans primarily make decisions in the right hemisphere of the brain - tapping into more of the emotional creative side - and then it reaches the left hemisphere where we use logic and rational thinking to justify the decision. If we only lead with the logical and rationality with our patients, we miss the most critical aspects of their decision making process.There are multiple ways of crafting a story but two of them work really well in business - the PIxar method and the Storybrand method.Story provides extra significance and value to the products you sell. In 2009, two journalists purchased 100 random useless items for a total of $129.  They listed the items on eBay and had writers craft a story for the item itself. In the end, they were able to sell the items for more than $3,600 all due to the value a customer associated with the item due to its story.Practice Advantage Reading List** Don't miss out on an extra $10 rebate for all commercial VSP Eye Exams this year!

It's that time of the year again where we make our friendly bet on the season's box office results. After two years in a row of Amir taking the bag, Derek and Jeff are trying extra hard in 2025 to take down the reigning champ, but will everyone's lists be different enough? Tune in as we predict the winners, losers, and wild cards of the summer.

If you're powering through your day like a caffeine-fueled robot with no off switch—stop. Your brain and body are not machines. We are more like rechargeable batteries, but we need to recharge.  On this episode of Crina and Kirsten Get to Work, our hosts discuss giving IT (all of IT) a rest.   SHOW NOTES A break is not a luxury—it's a necessity. A German study found that we respond to physical overload with back, neck and shoulder pain.  Our bodies are talking to us, but are we listening?  And our brains do something similar - short-circuiting into anger, passivity, or full shutdown mode (hi, doom scrolling in the bathroom).  Breaks help avoid those responses - and in fact are alarms from our bodies, brains and souls that we need to give it a minute (and maybe lots more)  While there is nothing wrong with guilty social media scrolls or fake “I'm just checking email” moments, we need actual pauses—time for your body and mind to reset. We may think that breaks are the enemy of productivity—but research says breaks are golden ticket to performance and productivity. Breaks replenish glucose, reduce stress hormones, and activate the brain's “default mode network,” a magical zone responsible for creativity, introspection, and those “aha” moments (yes, even Pixar movies have emerged from a well-timed lunch break). And it's not just your brain that benefits. Animal shelter workers who took breaks lasted longer in their careers, and team breaks build trust and improve collaboration. Even short “microbreaks” matter—especially when they come after tough meetings or demanding tasks. The barriers? Hustle culture, guilt, tech, and the glorification of burnout. But changing the narrative around unproductive time is crucial. Walk.  Get out in nature - heck, check out those orca videos.  Stretch. Nap. Stare at trees. Laugh at a meme. Walk your dog. Daydream. Call your mom. Whatever recharges you. Because the ultimate flex isn't grinding 24/7—it's knowing when to step away.  Good Reads: A Guide to Taking Better Breaks at Work – Harvard Business Review, Feb 2025 How to Take Better Breaks at Work, According to Research – Harvard Business Review, May 2023 Impact of Recovery Breaks on Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders – Applied Ergonomics, 2023 The Distracted Mind: Ancient Brains in a High-Tech World, Rosen & Gazzaley
