What happens when a former federal judge faces an Alzheimer's diagnosis? For Stephanie Duncan-Peters and her husband Richard James, it becomes an opportunity to showcase remarkable resilience, joy, and a refreshing perspective on living with cognitive change. In Episode 105, Don and I have a deeply moving and uplifting conversation with Stephanie, whose impressive career spans nearly 20 years as a District of Columbia Superior Court judge appointed by President George H.W. Bush.  Far from letting her diagnosis define her, Stephanie has recently published a children's book, "The Blue-Footed Booby Blues," about a dancing bird who loves to travel—mirroring her own passions. The couple shares how they met through dance lessons 12 years ago and continue to dance together today, demonstrating how activities that build "cognitive reserve" can remain accessible and joyful despite Alzheimer's. Their calm, matter-of-fact approach to the diagnosis stems partly from Stephanie's previous experience supporting a Harvard Law professor friend through his Alzheimer's journey. We explore fascinating concepts like cognitive reserve—how certain skills and passions often persist longer in people with dementia—and the way Alzheimer's can paradoxically create what host I call "the ultimate state of Zen," fostering heightened presence and appreciation for the now. Richard offers valuable insights from the care partner perspective, discussing how unexpected connections in his community led to crucial support resources. Their story beautifully illustrates how love, resilience, and maintaining meaningful activities create a fulfilling life even when facing significant health challenges. Whether you're navigating dementia in your own family or simply seeking inspiration on facing life's unexpected turns with grace, this conversation will leave you with renewed hope and practical wisdom for the journey ahead.

Space Precinct actor and Gerry Anderson Podcast host Richard James chooses this Peter Davison story to put under the positive magnifying glass that is Happy Times and Places. Perhaps the most traditional seeming story of the Fifth Doctor's first year, The Visitation seems to have fallen out of favour in recent years. So is it a case of a plague on all four episodes or are the story's good qualities so infectiously good that by the end of it you'll be riddled with positives? #doctorwho #doctorwhoreaction #doctorwhocommentary #doctorwhocomedian #tobyhadoke #doctorwhofacts #positivedoctorwho #classicdoctorwho Please support these podcasts on Patreon, where you will get advance releases, exclusive content (including a patron-only podcast - Far Too Much Information), regular AMAs and more.

In 1943, Richard James, a naval engineer, was in the Philadelphia Naval Shipyard working on a project that used springs to hold items up on moving ships, when he accidentally knocked down a spring and watched it "walk" and then coil itself up neatly on the floor. It was an idea-inspiring moment, and along with his wife, Betty, a plan was hatched to create a new toy. Betty combed through a dictionary and came up with the name "Slinky," and in 1945, with a 500 dollar loan, the couple created James Industries. At first, the Slinkys weren't selling, but when a demonstration table was set up in Philadelphia's Gimbels Department Store during the 1945 holiday shopping season, the James's sold 400 of them for a dollar each in 90 minutes—and people wanted more.

A failed suspension idea for the navy, slinky becomes a toy so popular they sell over 300 million of them. Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders podcast, teaching business owners the not-so-secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom and pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector, and storyteller. I'm Stephen's sidekick and business partner, Dave Young. Before we get into today's episode, a word from our sponsor, which is, well, it's us, but we're highlighting ads we've written and produced for our clients. So here's one of those. [Seaside Plumbing Ad] Dave Young: Welcome back to the Empire Builders podcast. I mean, that assumes that you've listened to an episode already I guess. Stephen Semple: Very presumptuous, very presumptuous. Dave Young: That was very presumptuous of me. I'm Dave Young, Steven Semple's here, and he's got a new story for us and told me just before we got started here that it's going to be slinky. It's Slinky. It's Slinky. Yeah. Childhood favorite. I used to love playing with a Slinky, and I could keep one without getting tangled for about an hour. Then it'd just be a tangled mess of scrap iron. So I'm going to take a wild guess as to the origins. Stephen Semple: Okay, go for it. Dave Young: Because I could be completely wrong. I don't have any basis for this other than a hunch, because it feels almost like the Silly Putty story. He made a thing that was, oh, this is stable and it's industrial and it won't hold its shape, and it's of virtually no use. Let's let children play with it. I feel like a spring made out of flat steel that's springy, but not springy enough to really help you as a spring, somebody just said, well, this is kind of fun just to play around with in your hands. Is this an accidental toy or did somebody set out to say, oh no, we're going to build a toy out of a spring? Stephen Semple: You're pretty close. It was started in 1943 by a mechanical engineer, Richard James, and to date, they've sold over 300 million of these things. It was inducted in the Toy hall of Fame. It's on the Toy Industry Association Century Toy List. In 1999, Slinky was a US stamp. Dave Young: Really? Stephen Semple: Yeah. But the origin goes back to, if you think about 1943, World War II was going on, and the control of the sea is critical to supply lines. Richard James is working on a way to keep sensitive instruments safe at sea and what his ideas are- Dave Young: To suspend them from springs. Stephen Semple: Suspend them from torsion springs and what does he do? He accidentally knocks over one of the springs and it looks like it starts to walk. So what he does is he goes home and he says to his wife, "I think we got a toy here now." Now he seemingly had brought home all sorts of strange things. Keeping in mind, during World War II toys were also made a cardboard because there was a shortage of steel and things along that lines. Dave Young: He can't go making toys out of spring steel in 1943. Stephen Semple: Yeah, a little tough. Also, the Navy rejects the idea for the equipment, but he continues to tinker with it and for two years he experiments with different wire. He finally lands on, it's 98 coils of Swedish steel, and it's about two and a half inches tall. It's Betty who comes up with the name Slinky because they're running around trying to come up with the name. Betty goes, "I think we should call it Slinky." Dave Young: Springy. No, it's stretchy. No. Stephen Semple: Right. Yeah. Dave Young: Slinky is great. Stephen Semple: Slinky is a great name. So they decide to borrow $500 and they make 400 of them. Look, it's like no other toy in the market, and no other toy has really come along like Slinky really, if you think about it. Dave Young: No. Stephen Semple: But now he has to convince... So he's got this thing that's completely diffe...

Well things end with a bang - and a melt and a burn - as the story makes the most of its setting and throws in a bit of Reithian educational content (albeit jazzed up with some alien interference that would not sit comfortably in the history books). There's not much about the making of a television series in this podcast (or indeed about The Making of a Television Series) but there's plenty to talk about as Earth is brought to the brink of armageddon but saved by a fire in a bakery. But will actor, writer, podcaster and renaissance man Richard James and host Toby Hadoke alight on the same things in this episode that make them glow, or will they go down in a blaze of glory?

"Now is the time to say goodbye. Now is the time to yield a sigh. Till we meet again... in the TV movie and the New Series."
