Part of parenting is realizing you'll almost never get to complete a sentence. Or a thought. At least during certain ages and stages. Constant interruptions, whether your kids meant to or not. They are just little distraction machines and can't always help it. Luckily Tori and Gwenna are easily distracted by everything. Including their own podcast. This episode is a bit of a mixed bag covering all those loose ends we left dangling in previous episodes. Stinking timer always interrupting us.

St. Albert the Great (1206-1280) mastered every field of study available to him, from astronomy to zoology. He was called the “miracle of his time,” not because he performed miracles, but because he was considered an authority - on the level of St. Augustine and Peter Lombard - even within his own lifetime. He was the mentor and teacher of a more famous doctor of the Church: St. Thomas Aquinas.  Links For a great conversation about Peter Lombard's Sentences, check out this article, The Most Influential Theology Book Nobody Reads: https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/195-most-influential-theology-book-nobody-reads-philipp-rosemann/ For the background on Pseudo-Dionysius, listen to this Way of the Fathers episode: https://www.catholicculture.org/commentary/who-was-pseudo-dionysius-areopagite/ The Classics of Western Spirituality volume which includes Albert & Thomas: https://www.paulistpress.com/Products/3022-X/albert-and-thomas.aspx SIGN UP for Catholic Culture's Newsletter:  https://www.catholicculture.org/newsletters/ DONATE at:  http://www.catholicculture.org/donate/audio Dr. Papandrea's Homepage:  http://www.jimpapandrea.com Dr. Papandrea's book on ROME is revised and updated for the Jubilee year: ROME: A Pilgrim's Guide to the Eternal City - Second Edition: https://wipfandstock.com/9798385206643/rome-second-edition/ Dr. Papandrea's YouTube channel, The Original Church: https://www.youtube.com/@TheOriginalChurch Theme Music: Gaudeamus (Introit for the Feast of All Saints), sung by Jeff Ostrowski.

In this second episode of Hawthornden's Como Conversazione, we explore beginnings. Anyone who has been around kids knows that a good Lego build starts with a good base. In a translation, this is the first sentence of a text. First sentences are so often the most famous lines.  They are a place for a translator to make their mark. They dictate the voice in which the book unfolds. But has the importance of the first sentence been overly inflated?

I don't know about you, but I was truly surprised to hear Judge Russell Collins send a young drug driver to jail on Friday. In the Napier District Court, Judge Collins heard Alexander Kerr had dope in his system when he crashed his car - killing his mate and leaving another in a wheelchair for life. Kerr had no previous convictions. His mate, the one in the wheelchair, the one he didn't kill, had forgiven him, but Judge Collins sent Kerr to jail for two years and three months. In sentencing, Judge Collins said if people asked the question, “What would happen if I killed someone through driving while impaired by drugs or alcohol?” The answer should be “expect to go to jail.” Criminal lawyer Steve Cullen on Early Edition this morning said a sentence of imprisonment is not unusual. If people are being killed due to drug drivers or drink drivers being on the road, then a harsh penalty has to be imposed to send the message to everybody. Really?! Steve Cullen, I can give you many, many, many, many instances of people who have killed innocents on the road and have not been sent to jail. A repeat drunk driver who killed another motorist has successfully appealed her prison sentence and got home detention. Samantha Allen was described as weaving on the road, SH3 in the King Country, crossing the centre line multiple times before the head on collision in March 2022. The crash killed Abigail Johns. It was Allen's fourth drink driving conviction. She successfully appealed her sentence of two years and seven months imprisonment, and it was replaced with a sentence of 9 1/2 months home detention. Ten weeks after he hit and killed an Irish national, Declan Curley, while drunk driving, Callum Wither was again on the road and drunk. He's now been sentenced to home detention to the disappointed murmurs of Curley's friends and family. Wither, 23, who had hit Declan at the intersection of Taranaki and Dixon streets in central Wellington in 2022, was drunk enough to have a friend tell him he should not be driving. But after killing Declan on April 21, Wither was again in Wellington CBD drink driving and he got home detention. Samuel Paterson killed surfer, builder and cyclist Andrew Milne. It was an avoidable killing, and Paterson simply had no business getting behind the wheel when he was fatigued, drunk and with cannabis in his system. Paterson's car was unwarranted and unregistered at the time of the fatal collision. The judge gave Paterson credit for his early guilty pleas, his engagement with the restorative justice, his remorse, his efforts at rehabilitation and his offer of significant reparation that reduced his sentence from a starting point of three years and six months imprisonment to 11 months home detention and 200 hours community work. And in 2023, I mean there are so many more, but this is my last one. Jake Hamlin finished work at 4pm and drove from Ruawai to a house near the Sherwood Golf Club in Whangarei and began consuming a box of Maverick bourbon, ready-to- drink-mixes. He left the house, began driving towards Managawhai, still consuming drinks, was captured on CCTV crossing the centre line. A driver called police, observing Jake Hamlin drifting across the road and almost colliding into three other vehicles. The driver said he followed him for a period but gave up when he hit a speed of around 130kms. Fifteen minutes later, Hamlin came along the Uretiti straights, crossing the centre line and ploughing straight into Samantha Williams. She was killed on impact and suffered injuries she would find hard to be able to survive. After listening to the lengthy submissions, Judge Davis accepted that Hamlin was among many young men in New Zealand caught up in the peer pressure of an excessive drinking culture. He acknowledged his rehabilitative efforts, offers for restorative justice, which were declined, and his remorse. The end sentence was 12 months home detention, which upset multiple members of the victim's family, who left the courtroom. So, Steve Cullen, I would say that absolutely it is a surprise to me, and probably to many others, and probably to the young man himself, to be sent to prison. The answer absolutely should be, as you say, what happens if I kill somebody? When, through my own deeds and actions, my choice to drink, my choice to take drugs, my choice to get behind the wheel of a vehicle, I kill somebody else. The answer absolutely should be I go to jail. All these people and all the many others I haven't got time to mention should be in prison, every single one of them. Some of them are really, really sorry. For some of them it's a nightmare they'll never wake up. From some well you know ... some of them seem to be, “well I was pissed, I was stoned, it was an accident, these things happen.” No. Yes, they happen, but they shouldn't. And when they do happen, a life has got to be recognised. The person who took the life of another can't just be inconvenienced, a bit bored, brassed off at home. Life as they know it should come to an absolute halt. They should lose their rights, they should go to prison and they should stay there for a period of time. Your liberty should be taken from you. If not forever, at least for a period to acknowledge that you have stolen the life of another person, and that's got to count for something. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Sentences could only get tougher for drivers who kill under the influence, as a 20-year-old's been sent to prison. Alexander Lucas Kerr has been sentenced to 27 months in prison, after a crash killed one of his friends and left the other in a wheelchair. He was found with cannabis in his system when he crashed his car in a semi-rural part of Havelock North in January. Criminal defence lawyer John Munro says Kerr doesn't qualify for home detention, despite heavy discounts to his sentence. He says if the starting point remains the same in a year, discounts could be capped at 40-percent. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This new era of AI-driven startups has many founders still believing success is about having the perfect product roadmap. The truth, however, is far more counterintuitive.In this episode, Yaniv and Chris dive into timeless lessons from Paul Graham's legendary essay “Startups in 13 Sentences”. Drawing from Graham's wisdom and their own experiences, they break down why co-founders matter more than ideas, why “launch fast” is the golden rule, and why understanding users is harder (and more important) than chasing growth.In this episode, you will:Learn why choosing the right co-founder is the most important decision you'll ever makeUnderstand why launching fast is less about speed and more about learning from real usersDiscover why evolving your idea matters more than defending a perfect planSee how understanding users drives sustainable growth (and why chasing vanity metrics kills startups)Explore why great customer service that 'doesn't scale' is actually a secret weaponUnpack the dangers of measuring the wrong things and how to track what truly mattersFind out why distractions (even profitable ones) are the silent killers of young startupsFor founders serious about building in the AI era, these lessons, though written 16 years ago, are more relevant than ever. Startups succeed not by following conventional wisdom, but by mastering the counterintuitive truths that define Silicon Valley's greatest companies.Read Paul Graham's "Startups in 13 Sentences" here: https://paulgraham.com/13sentences.html The Pact Honor the Startup Podcast Pact!

In this solo episode, Chanie Wilschanski challenges one of the most common—and misleading—phrases in school leadership: “Let's get on the same page.”While it may sound like alignment and feel like unity, this phrase often leads to passive agreement, false harmony, and a school culture built on appeasement—not real accountability.Chanie shares why being “on the same page” is no longer her goal—and how installing shared standards, guardrails, and team rhythms can transform your school systems and restore trust across your staff.If you're tired of repeating the same expectations over and over, this episode offers a leadership framework for creating clarity, follow-through, and sustainable team ownership—without micromanaging.What You'll LearnWhy “being on the same page” creates confusion, not clarityHow to lead with shared standards that drive school-wide accountabilityWhy rhythms and systems—not reminders—protect your school cultureA practical framework for restoring team ownership without overfunctioningWhat false harmony is costing you in terms of trust, time, and retentionHow to navigate team members with inconsistent follow-throughKey Insights“On the Same Page” Is a Leadership MirageIt creates a false sense of alignment while team members continue to operate with unclear expectations. Real school culture is built through systems, clarity, and ownership—not agreement alone.Standards Build Clarity—Ownership Creates StabilityYour team doesn't need the same words. They need the same follow-through. When team roles are clearly defined and reinforced, it reduces micromanaging and school burnout.Guardrails Make Standards StickSystems like recommitment rhythms, role clarity, and consistent follow-up help move your team from second-guessing and scrambling to anchored, confident leadership.Overfunctioning Leaders Block OwnershipWhen school directors or owners jump in to “just fix it,” it reinforces a culture of dependency and disempowers the team. Guardrails allow you to stop doing it all—and let your staff rise.The Guardrails Framework: Try This InsteadTired of repeating the same school standard over and over? Use this 3-part framework to reinforce shared ownership and sustainable systems:1. Define Follow-Through → What does success look like for each role? → Be specific, especially when addressing low accountability or inconsistent team members.2. Install a Recommitment Rhythm → Use weekly check-ins, midpoint reviews, or 1:1s to revisit standards regularly. → Don't build new rules—recommit to existing ones with intention.3. Clarify Ownership → Who is responsible for what? → Sustainable school operations require role clarity and systems that reduce friction.Memorable Quotes “You don't need matching words. You need matching follow-through.” “Culture isn't built by agreement. It's built by what we hold—together.” “If the standard is that children go home clean, your schedule must support that.”Why This Matters for School LeadersReduces the pressure of overfunctioning and the mental load of repeating standardsShifts team dynamics from passive compliance to real accountabilityHelps overwhelmed school directors install systems that actually stickStrengthens school retention and team trust by building predictable rhythmsProtects your school culture from burnout, resentment, and low follow-throughResources & Next Steps...

In Provincial Ombudsman, Paul Dubé's, latest report, he calls on the Ford government to take a closer look at Ontario jails, sounding the alarm on what he calls a growing crisis. According to his findings, overcrowding, unlawful treatment, and the high volume of inmates awaiting trial all shine a bright light on the current realties inside some of the most secretive places in the province. But how did we get here? And who will bear the cost of changing the system? Host Maria Kestane speaks to Jessica Evans, Associate Professor at Toronto Metropolitan University's criminology department, about what exactly is going on in correctional facilities across Ontario, and what the province can do to ensure the safety and rights of everyone involved.We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes.

Dozens of peaceful protesters, including disabled people in wheelchairs, were arrested last Wednesday in Washington, DC, while protesting President Trump's massive spending and tax bill, which will dramatically slash taxes, restructure the student loan and debt system, and make devastating cuts to vital, popular programs like Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). With Vice President JD Vance casting the tie-breaking vote, Senate Republicans voted Tuesday to advance Donald Trump's so-called One Big Beautiful Bill, which will now go back to the House of Representatives for final approval. In this urgent episode of Working People, we speak with Lorraine Chavez and Chrstine Rodriguez, who were among the dozens arrested for their peaceful act of civil disobedience on June 25, about what's in this bill, what it will mean for working people, and how working people are fighting back.  Editor's Note (7/1/25): Before the US Senate voted to advance President Trump's spending and tax bill, the provision to bar states from issuing new regulations on artificial intelligence for 10 years was removed from the legislation. Guests:  Lorraine Chavez is an educator, researcher, and community leader based in Chicago. She is also a student debtor and traveled to the Washington DC protest with the Debt Collective.  Chrstine Rodriguez is a legal assistant and student debtor from Pasadena, California, who also traveled to the Washington DC protest with the Debt Collective.

In this final episode of our summer writing series, I'm unpacking one of the biggest challenges upper elementary teachers face: helping students write multi-paragraph essays. If your state test expects students to write an essay by the end of the year, the pressure to start early is real—but I'm here to tell you why that might actually hold your students back. Instead of jumping straight into essays, we'll talk about how building a strong foundation in sentence and paragraph writing can lead to much greater success down the road.I'll share why starting the year with essays can be overwhelming for students, how to know when they're truly ready for multi-paragraph writing, and what scaffolds to put in place in the meantime. From sentence-level work to outlining and targeted revision, this episode walks through the writing sequence that actually supports long-term growth—not just short-term test prep.Whether you're a third-grade teacher wondering if essays are developmentally appropriate, or a fifth-grade teacher looking for a better way to build student confidence, I hope this episode gives you clarity and encouragement as you plan your writing instruction. Essay writing doesn't need to happen right away—in fact, holding off might be exactly what your students need to grow into confident, capable writers.Join us in the Stellar Literacy Collective Membership: stellarteacher.com/join!Sign up for my FREE private podcast, the Confident Writer Systems Series, here!Sign up for my FREE Revision Made Easy email series here!Follow me on Instagram @thestellarteachercompany.
