How to Be a Good Neighbor on Buses, Trains & Airplanes | Public Transportation Etiquette for Kids! Have you ever wondered how to act on a bus, train, or airplane? In this episode, Kristen and Asher hop aboard real city transit and a jet plane with special guest Ms. Kelly, an etiquette coach and early childhood educator, to learn the art of being a thoughtful, respectful traveler in shared spaces.

In this episode, kids will learn: Why we let passengers off before getting on a bus or train What the "invisible bubble" rule is and why it matters on airplanes How the greeting culture in Nigeria teaches us something beautiful about respect Why offering your seat to an elder is a universal act of kindness Simple ways every child can be a good neighbor wherever they travel ABOUT OUR GUEST Ms. Kelly (Kelechi Anselem-Okorie) is an etiquette coach and early childhood educator based in California, originally from Nigeria. She helps children build confidence, make friends, and show up their best everywhere they go through the power of manners, kindness, and cultural awareness.

I go straight at something I talk about with every man I walk with: you are at war. I start in 2 Corinthians 10:3-5 and unpack what Paul meant when he said our weapons aren't fleshly but carry divine power to destroy strongholds. Then I tell a story from the San Diego Zoo that reframes the whole thing. Our tour guide pointed out that the zoo's lions had no scars, no hunger, no enemies. "Showcase lions," she called them. Born into ease. They'd die the same way. Wild lions? Shorter lives. Scarred bodies. But free. I draw the line: too many of us are living like caged lions, wanting comfort and calling it faithfulness. Peter says to arm yourself with the mind of Christ. And Christ's mind was simple: not my will, but yours. That's the weapon. That's the war.

In this episode of The First Day from The Fund Raising School, host Bill Stanczykiewicz, Ed.D., welcomes Jeff Spitko, CFRE, Senior Director of Integrated Fundraising at the San Diego Foundation and a leading voice on digital fundraising strategy. Right out of the gate, the conversation challenges one of the most persistent myths in nonprofit fundraising: that digital fundraising is simply a matter of posting an online ask and waiting for donations to roll in. Jeff makes the case that digital fundraising is not instant fundraising, but relationship fundraising at scale. Just as major gift work depends on cultivating trust over time, effective digital fundraising requires a thoughtful journey built through personalization, customization, and a slow, intentional process of helping donors understand the mission before ever being asked to give. Jeff then walks listeners through the crucial role of lead generation, describing it as the space where marketing and fundraising intersect. Rather than rushing to solicit new contacts, organizations should focus first on inspiring people to engage, often through advocacy campaigns, petitions, quizzes, and other mission-connected content that encourages participation and makes people want to learn more. He draws on examples from his time at the San Diego Zoo, where petitions tied to endangered species protection and quizzes about wildlife helped attract potential supporters and collect email addresses. From there, the real work begins: a welcome series spread across weeks, not days, designed to educate, build familiarity, and gradually deepen connection. The message is clear: getting the email address is only the beginning, not the finish line. The conversation then turns to engagement and what it really means to build a two-way relationship with donors online. Jeff argues that nonprofits are often very good at talking about their mission and making asks, but far less effective at listening, reporting back, and showing donors that their voices matter. Surveys, response data, and behavioral patterns all offer valuable insight into what supporters care about, and organizations should use that information not only to learn, but to act. He emphasizes the importance of segmentation, noting that donors respond best when content reflects their actual interests and motivations. In an increasingly saturated digital landscape, the organizations that stand out are not simply the loudest, but the ones that make donors feel seen, understood, and valued. Finally, Bill and Jeff connect digital fundraising to the broader donor journey, underscoring that the gift itself comes well after a series of earlier steps: consuming content, following on social media, taking non-financial actions, and sharing contact information. In that sense, digital fundraising mirrors the larger principles of fundraising taught at The Fund Raising School, where relationship-building, preparation, and stewardship all come before and after the ask. Jeff reminds listeners that digital donor acquisition is a long-term investment, one that may not generate immediate net revenue but can create sustainable lifetime value when done well. The episode leaves fundraisers with a steadying and important reminder: digital success does not come from speed, but from patience, strategy, and the disciplined work of building trust over time.

Was he trying to escape? That's the question today after a 400-pound gorilla at the San Diego Zoo went on a rampage slamming into the glass partition so hard... It shattered! Families at the zoo were understandably afraid for their safety. You'd think President Trump would be happy about this... he's on the cover of Time magazine... With the headline "His Triumph" - referring to brokering the peace deal in The Middle East. But he's giving it thumbs down.  AI prank warning! You've heard about all sorts of ways AI technology is being used... But it comes with a warning. Many on social media are using AI to prank their families making it look like someone is inside their home. Now cops are saying, fake images are sometimes leading to real problems.  It's being called death in apartment 603. There are major developments today in the case of the teacher found dead with more than 20 stab wounds. The medical examiner ruled it a suicide. But her family is saying there's no way her wounds were self-inflicted.   To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.

 Chaos in Torrance — a former student at Switzer Learning Center allegedly stabbed three staff members and tried to attack a fourth before being arrested. The suspect then claimed he'd planted two pipe bombs near the school, sending bomb squads to both the campus and his Redondo Beach home. The Switzer Center serves students with learning differences, according to its website, and police are continuing to investigate. From mayhem to money — Costco's clothing business is booming, with shoppers snatching up everything from jackets to jeans faster than you can say “Kirkland Signature Couture.” Then onto sports and state politics: the Dodgers face the Brewers, now just eight wins away from their next big milestone. Meanwhile, Governor Gavin Newsom signed SB 79, a sweeping housing bill allowing nine-story buildings near transit stops in eight California counties — despite opposition from Mayor Karen Bass and L.A. City Council. The bill's numerous exemptions and unclear zoning maps have cities scrambling to interpret the changes before they take effect in July 2026. And in San Diego, a moment of terror at the San Diego Zoo as a gorilla charged the glass, shattering part of the enclosure and sending guests running. 

Today, the Safari sits down with one of the true unsung heroes of the zoo world: Kelly Salamone. In her work at the San Diego Zoo and with SAFE Red Panda, Kelly does SO much that I can't even describe it all here. Just listen...she's a star. This is a completely different side of the zoo world than you've heard about on here yet, and that's even before we get to Kelly's incredible non-zoo job. EPISODE LINKS: @sandiegozoo on socials sandiegozoo.org ROSSIFARI LINKS: @rossiari on socials @rossifaripod on TikTok Rossifari.com Patreon.com/rossifari to support the pod

With Nicole off on a well-earned vacation, Rich is joined by his longtime radio pal Niko for a dad-filled takeover of the pod. The two kick things off reminiscing about becoming dads around the same time, how their crew first came together, and the wild ride from those early days to now. They dive into their joint Memorial Day weekend adventure, featuring a whirlwind trip to Legoland and the San Diego Zoo with the families, where carnival games stole their wallets, animals got unexpectedly scandalous, and what their kids declared “fancy”. Niko also shares a bizarre tangent into “conception photography” (you've been warned), and the guys commiserate over the looming question every parent is asking right now: what the heck are we doing with these kids all summer? From the idea of sleepaway camps to letting the kids make their own summer bucket lists, the panic is real, but at least they're in it together. We want to hear from you! Got ridiculous summer plans, wild zoo stories, or a bucket list made entirely of snacks? Hit us up on Instagram @HaveKidsTheySaidPod or leave us a voice note—we might feature it in next week's show!
