Hosts: Rusty Cannon and Taylor Morgan  Rural schools often face unique challenges – things that we on the Wasatch Front don’t think about. Whether it’s dealing with things like teacher recruitment or retention, or things like sports and facilities, rural schools could use some extra love.

Seasons are changing when it comes to secondary school sports. In just over a year's time, basketball is set to become the most popular sport, with participation jumping 61% since 2000. However, there's now concerns that New Zealand is 500 courts short to support the growing popularity. School Sport NZ CEO Mike Summerell told Mike Hosking that while schools have great facilities they can only cater for the smaller games, and national competitions are maxing the current facilities out. He says they also have to share the courts with other sports, and while they want the games to be played indoors, space is hard to come by.

As an academic advisor, Ana Homayoun has had many conversations with students, parents, and administrators. With so much competition and so many pressures, what's always top-of-mind is grades, college admissions and how to stand out from everyone else. But what often falls by the wayside are the fundamentals of how to create a healthy and successful life. We speak with Homayoun about why so many teens (especially in the last 10 years) seem to really struggle post-high school and how parents can better prepare their kids before they hit this breaking point.

Linda and I try to get a grip on the intensity of school sports  and why parents are nuts in this episode of Diva Almighty 

As an academic advisor, Ana Homayoun has had thousands of conversations with students, parents, and administrators. Many of these talks typically center around grades, college admissions, career paths and other key academic to-dos. Yet, what's not as commonly talked about is the importance of life skills. This means cultivating independence, setting good habits and more. We speak with Homayoun about why so many teens seem to struggle post-high school and how adults can better prepare their kids in the long-term rather than focusing solely on short-term academic markers.

It's being suggested forcing children to participate in mandatory school sports can have serious long-term impacts on mental health.  They also believe in some cases, it can destroy their relationship with exercise.   But Engage Training child psychologist Kathryn Berkett told Mike Hosking science shows most people need to be pushed into uncomfortable positions.  “If we don't stretch into a tolerably uncomfortable space, we're not going to get better.”  LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

With the Greene County Community School District is Superintendent Brett Abbotts! We dug into Mr Abbotts, his background and journey from growing up in Canada to running the schools here in Jefferson, Iowa. Not only this but he "schooled me" on topics like the voucher program installed recently in Iowa, and how tax dollars get distributed to the school, specifically local dollars.  He is also passionate about football and golf, occasionally sandwiches get wagered on football games and as a Patriot fan he casually trashed the Vikings (my favorite team, GO Vikes!) but Mr. Abbotts is for sure the man to beat on the golf course, and he tells an interesting story about a student who has risen up to try and take him down.  Mr. Abbotts has completely convinced me the schools are heading in a phenomenal direction.  He is both goal orientated and relationship focused, an often tough balance to handle but he is finding ways to do it.I loved his answer to questions about his goals for this school year, though his answer about a perfect world "utopian" goal is especially memorable - He spoke about each kid being confident in their learning, and elevating our district to an elite status, one where people want to come here and you are certainly proud to have graduated from here. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with Mr Abbotts and hope you enjoy this in depth conversation about school matter and beyond.

Matt and Sam talk to Gillian Branstetter,  press secretary for the National Women's Law Center, about the spate of anti-trans laws sweeping the country: What do these interventions do? Who is pushing them? And why? The American right has long been invested in policing gender boundaries, but its fixation on trans people — and trans children, in particular — has  become more acute in recent years. Over 100 anti-trans state-level measures have been passed this legislative session alone, including athletics bans, curriculum/book bans, religious refusal laws, and bans on access to health care. Perhaps most alarmingly, states like Texas are instituting policies that equate gender-affirming care with child abuse, terrorizing  trans kids and their families. With Gillian's help, we explore the conservative forces behind these bills and reveal the ideological fixations, misapprehensions, and contradictions driving this panic. It's a difficult but necessary conversation.If you'd like to help fight the right's anti-trans onslaught,  consider donating to The Trans Justice Funding Project.  Further Reading: J David Goodman, "How Medical Care for Trans Youth Became ‘Child Abuse' In Texas," NY Times, March 11, 2022Melissa Gira Grant, "The Groups Pushing Anti-Trans Laws Want to Divide the LGBTQ Movement," The New Republic, Feb 17, 2022. Jeremy W Peters, "A Conservative Push to Make Trans Kids and School Sports the Next Battleground," NY Times, Nov 3, 2019. Judith Butler, "Why Is the Idea of ‘Gender' Provoking Backlash the World Over?"
