Send us a textIt's a really bad year for measles. Cases are spiking in countries where children should have been fully vaccinated, such as the United States, Canada, and Mexico. More than 1,000 cases have been reported in the United States just in the first half of 2025, with at least 3 deaths. The death of a child in Texas early in 2025 was the first time a child had died from the infection in the United States since 2003. It's even worse in Canada, with more than 2,500 reported cases. Measles was declared eliminated in the United States in 2000, thanks to vaccination, but this very infectious virus has come roaring back because of a decline in vaccination. The decline is overwhelmingly linked to fears and false rumors about vaccines – especially the hard-to-kill notion that the measles vaccine might somehow cause autism.Now, one of the leading proponents of this thoroughly disproven idea, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., has become U.S. Secretary of Health and Human Services and he's bent on both casting more doubt on vaccines, and on renewing fears about autism.He got more ammunition in the spring of 2025 with the latest surveillance report from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention showing that about 1 in 31, or 3.2 percent, of children aged 8 years old has been diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder. This is up from 1 in 36 in 2020 and 1 in 54 in 2008. Kennedy has called for collecting more data on people with autism while also shedding even more doubt on the safety of vaccines in general.The CDC itself still says vaccines do not cause autism, but Kennedy, widely blamed for stoking vaccine hesitancy that helped fuel an outbreak of measles in Samoa in 2019 that killed 83 people, is in a position to further weaken vaccination efforts while spreading misinformation about autism.“It takes 10 minutes to create a vaccine scare and at least 10 years to overcome it,” says Dr. Judith S. Miller, a psychologist in the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences and a senior scientist and training director in the Center for Autism Research at Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.Better screening and broader criteria are likely the main reason autism diagnoses are on the rise, says Dr. Miller, who is also Associate Professor of Psychology in Psychiatry and Pediatrics at the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania.Listen as Dr. Miller discusses why it's a waste of time to re-examine the disproven links between vaccines and autism, why establishing new government databases may actually hold back research, and what autism professionals really need from the federal government.

Join thousands of other listeners on our Substack, The Foodletter!   In this inspiring and insight-packed episode, Brooke sits down with Utah-based entrepreneur and restaurateur Shem Hannemann to talk about the highs, lows, and hard truths of building restaurant brands that people love. Shem opens up about his early creative ventures, what it really takes to start a restaurant from scratch, and how his passion for design, people, and food have fueled a career rooted in both hospitality and hustle. From the initial concept of Sunday's Best to facing hard moments of burnout, Shem delivers a transparent and motivating look at what it takes to succeed in the food world—and how staying curious and community-focused keeps him moving forward.   Whether you're a restaurant lover, aspiring business owner, or creative looking for inspiration, this episode delivers clarity, honesty, and encouragement in spades.   Key Takeaways [03:28] Family Roots and Resilience: Shem's grandparents immigrated from Samoa to Hawaii, seeking better opportunities. Their hard work and sacrifice laid the foundation for the family's success. [08:17] The Power of Family and Culture: Surfing and the ocean played a central role in keeping the brothers connected and grounded, influencing the restaurant's beach-themed branding. [16:17] From Humble Beginnings to Expansion: The first Seven Brothers location, Kahuku Grill, opened in 2009 with minimal experience and a $2.75 burger that initially lost money. Through word of mouth and community support, the business grew. [19:56] Menu Evolution: The iconic "Shemburger" was born out of experimentation, and the menu expanded from seafood to gourmet burgers, now a cornerstone of the brand. [29:10] Expansion and Franchising: Seven Brothers now has multiple locations (4 in Hawaii, 7 in Utah, and 1 in Arizona), with 4 more opening soon. Franchising has allowed local families to bring the brand to their communities. [41:05] Lessons in Resilience: Shem credits his parents' optimism and hard work as the driving force behind the business's success, emphasizing the mantra "this too shall pass."   Notable Quotes (3:28) "Our grandparents immigrated from Samoa to Hawaii. They wanted a better life for their kids... my dad comes from a family of 14." (15:40) “Don't do it—it's the highest fail rate... we don't have experience.” (42:20) “This too shall pass… good times or bad—just weather it. Something good will come.” – Shem Hannemann (46:39) “It's a mess, but it's my favorite burger right now.”   Resources Visit the official Seven Brothers website.

Send us a textWhat does it take to raise confident, resilient children in today's complex world? Former Seattle Seahawks linebacker Lofa Tatupu opens the playbook on his parenting journey in this compelling conversation about finding your path through adversity.The 2005 second-round draft pick and three-time Pro Bowler takes us back to his childhood as the only Samoan kid in Massachusetts, where he faced bullying and struggled to fit in. These early challenges, alongside his parents' divorce and losing their family home, became the forge that tempered his character and fueled his football career. "It was just failure, rise, failure, rise, failure, rise," Tatupu reflects. "How are we going to overcome this hurdle? That's how we do it, let's go."What makes this conversation particularly powerful is Tatupu's transparency about parenting his two sons, each with distinct personalities and passions. Despite his football pedigree (his father played 14 NFL seasons), Tatupu places no pressure on his children to follow that path. When his older son revealed his true passion for music at a family gathering, Tatupu embraced it completely: "I don't care if you pick up a basketball or football ever again in your life. What I saw tonight was your path and your calling."Tatupu's parenting philosophy centers on staying present with your children, truly seeing situations from their perspective rather than imposing your own. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing when your child "lights up" about something—that moment of genuine passion that signals their authentic path. His advice resonates whether you're raising future athletes, musicians, coders, or dreamers of any kind.Discover how this NFL star is applying the lessons of mental toughness, resilience, and adaptability from football to the ultimate team sport—raising a family. Whether you're a sports fan or simply a parent looking for inspiration, this episode offers practical wisdom for helping your children find their way in an increasingly complex world.Please don't forget to leave us a review wherever you consume your podcasts! Please help us get more dads to listen weekly and become the ultimate leader of their homes!
