Psychological testing can be complicated. It shouldn't have to be hostile, even if the evaluation is not intended to be in a client's best interest. In today's episode, Jacob shares his experience of a truly ridiculous psych assessment, and we speak with Rachel Simon, LCSW MEd about how assessors can minimize the harmful impact of their own biases – and the biases built into the psych tests themselves.   Thank you for listening.

Near the pandemic's beginning, Rachel Simon and her family were like many people: bored and looking for something to do at home. Then she found Pickleball and wrote about it in an article for the NY Times called Is Pickleball the Perfect Pandemic Pastime? I truly believe she helped fuel the explosive growth of the game, and now she has written a book Pickleball for All: Everything but the Kitchen Sink.

Pickleball is sweeping the courts of America. With an estimated 4.8 million Americans now playing the sport, Rachel Simon, author of Pickleball for All: Everything but the "Kitchen" Sink, takes listener calls from Pickleball players and fans alike, and explains the history and basics of the sport.

As gun violence escalates around the country, we spoke with two authors, Ms. Rachel Simon and Professor Geoffrey Corn, about their forthcoming publications in our Special Gun Rights Issue. Both authors offered insightful and novel takes on the issue of gun rights and regulation. Ms. Simon's Article examines how aggressive state-level preemption legislation restricts communities' ability to craft gun policy that meets their particular needs. Professor Corn's Article addresses the problem of illegal firearm possession and proposes the use of Illegal Firearm Checkpoints (IFCPs), via the “special needs” exception to the Fourth Amendment. Tune in to the latest episode of Pod Curiam to learn how preemption and IFCPs might operate in tandem to curb gun violence in the U.S.

How do we talk to our kids about sex? For some parents, this topic can be very uncomfortable, but it doesn't have to be. In fact, our kids need to learn about sex, their bodies, and how it all works – it's so important! Joining me for this conversation is Amy Lang, MA, who has been a sexual health educator for over 25 years. With her lively, engaging, and down-to-earth style, she helps parents become their kid's go-to ‘birds and bees' source. Amy's books, online solutions center and podcast, Just Say This! show parents that talking about sexuality doesn't need to be totally uncomfortable and really can be fun.   We go into: When to start talking to your kids about sex Why talking to kids about sex is really important to keep them safe Why we need to use the proper words and terminology when it comes to consent and body parts What makes people so afraid of teenagers having sex How to start talking about sex when you don't know where to start   Amy also provides childhood sexual development and sexual abuse prevention training for early childhood and youth serving organizations.

The way we talk to kids about bodies and gender is so important.When I was a kid, we didn't really talk about gender in any particular way, but it was everywhere and it was clear what the roles were. We didn't really talk about bodies either - other than what was wrong with them.I wanted to do things differently with my kids. I wanted them to have an inclusive upbringing and understanding that their bodies were theirs and that they were wonderful, powerful, and the wisest part of them.I wanted them to know that their gender and their biological sex were different and that there were all these invisible pressures and rules for them but that they didn't need to follow any of them.In early learning, whenever we want to teach kids social lessons, we turn to literature, and there was a shocking LACK of children's literature that was inclusive and body positive. I stumbled my way through trying to explain gender and bodies to my kids because I didn't really have a good resource to turn to when they were very young.This is why I'm so excited to talk to Rachel Simon.Rachel is a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist who offers therapy, gender and sexuality education, and consulting to youth, parents, families, educational faculty, professional organizations, and health professionals.She received both Masters degrees from Widener University and received her BA in Psychology and LGBT Studies from the University of Maryland.

She currently runs her private psychotherapy practice in Philadelphia, specializing in queer and transgender youth and young adults.

From 2013 comes a conversation with writer Rachel Simon, author of "Riding the Bus with my Sister: A True Life Journey." Rachel's sister Beth is developmentally disabled, and for years has spent a great deal of time riding the city buses of her community - striking up friendships with various bus drivers. Rachel Simon's book recounts her experience of accompanying Beth on these bus rides over the course of several months. It ended up bringing the two sisters much closer together.

In this episode, we will hear from Ren Gennerman about the new Title IX training. Then Caitlin Goette will talk to Mary Rooney, Rachel Simon and Lydia Rux about the Chris Kroeze concert. Mckenna Scherer shared a little about Shut Down Third Street. Finally, Madelyn Swenson will talk with Kendyl Keay about the Mankato soccer game this past weekend.

INCLUDEnyc’s Family Educator Kaitlin Roh continues the conversation with Rachel Simon, a sibling of a woman with a disability and author of Riding the Bus with My Sister, on what has happened since Rachel stopped riding the bus. They dive into how relationships as adult siblings change, the importance of support networks, and advice for caregivers and parents as they grow and build those relationships. The Sibling Support Project is a nation-wide project dedicated to the concerns of and support for siblings of individuals with special health, developmental, and mental health concerns: www.siblingsupport.org.

In any family, relationships among brothers and sisters are unique and important. Siblings can be friends and secret-keepers, as well as rivals and combatants. This relationship can be impacted by a sibling’s disability, shaping the experiences of both individuals throughout their lives together. Rachel Simon, author of Riding the Bus with My Sister and The Story of Beautiful Girl, discusses her own journey and relationship with her sister Beth and all the bumps and turns that happened along the way.
