An episode that deeply values justice and honesty!In Episode 149 of The Autistic Culture Podcast, Dr. Angela Kingdon explores Pillar 9 of Autistic Culture: Justice Seeking, with special guest Clare Kumar, productivity expert and host of the Happy Space Podcast, to explore Justice Seeking — the 9th pillar of autistic culture.Claire is a late-diagnosed autistic woman, executive coach, and productivity speaker. She brings unique insight into neurodivergent efficiency, workplace design, and inclusive spaces through her work with Hidden Disabilities Canada and her signature Joy Inventory tool.If you've ever been accused of being “too intense,” “too rigid,” or “black-and-white,” this episode is for you. Angela and Claire flip the script and reclaim those traits as moral clarity, fairness-driven thinking, and authentic advocacy — powerful parts of autistic identity.Here's what defines this core Autistic trait:* We call out what others ignore.Autistic people are often the first to question broken systems, double standards, and flawed logic. We don't pretend it makes sense—we say it doesn't.* We sense injustice instantly.Misaligned actions, hypocrisy, and favouritism aren't just annoying—they feel unbearable. Fairness isn't optional. It's foundational.* We speak up—no matter the cost.Whether it's calling out ableism, bias, or misinformation, autistic advocates often challenge power structures—even when it's uncomfortable.* We hold systems to their own rules.We expect policies to be applied with consistency and equity. Selective enforcement? We notice—and we question it.* We feel justice in our bodies.What's labelled as “Rejection Sensitive Dysphoria” is often justice sensitivity—a real-time emotional response to being dismissed for telling the truth.* We don't fake neutrality.When something's wrong, we can't mask it. We're not “too intense”—we're deeply aligned with our values.* We crave clarity, not conflict.Accountability helps us feel safe. We don't want to blame—we want to understand what went wrong and how to fix it.* We value truth over comfort.Authenticity matters more than approval. Many of us would rather lose a friendship than betray our principles.Key Concepts* ✨ Moral clarity: We often see the ethical core of a situation before others do—and struggle to stay silent about it.*

Did you see what Elmo from Sesame Street just posted on social media? 

Join Jim and Greg for Monday's 3 Martini Lunch as they sift through three controversies, including President Trump trying to turn the page from the Epstein scandal, disturbing reports about Biden's staff handling presidential pardons, and the X account of Elmo from Sesame Street spewing vile anti-Semitism after allegedly getting hacked.First, they break down the long Truth Social post from President Trump urging an end to MAGA infighting over the Justice Department's announcement that there was no Epstein client list, no children were ever exploited, and Epstein did kill himself. Trump also says the Epstein files that do exist were written by President Obama, Hillary Clinton, John Brennan, James Comey, and others. But this effort to move on seems to have accomplished exactly the opposite.Next, they dig into a New York Times report revealing that Joe Biden did not specifically choose many of the people he pardoned near the end of his term. He allegedly worked on the criteria for the pardons would be based but his staff ended up choosing the names and signing them with an autopen. So, will these pardons stand up to legal scrutiny?Finally, they cringe as the X account of Elmo, yes Elmo the Muppet, is reportedly hacked after a series of ugly tweets calling for killing all of the Jews. Even assuming it was hacked, Jim suspects this could help to kill taxpayer funding for PBS. Both Jim and Greg are also glad they were old enough to miss the Elmo era entirely on Sesame Street.Please visit our great sponsors:Stop putting off those doctors' appointments and go to https://zocdoc.com/3ML to find and instantly book a top rated doctor today.  If your business can't adapt in real-time, you're in a world of hurt.  Get the free e-book “Navigating Global Trade: 3 Insights for Leaders” from NetSuite by Oracle.  Download today at https://NetSuite.com/MARTINI No missed calls, no missed customers with OpenPhone.

John Oliver BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.John Oliver remains at the center of sharp-tongued satire and headline-making stunts this week. His most buzzed-about moment came from a high-profile interview circuit following his audacious million-dollar offer to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas to resign, a story that's setting media abuzz and likely to linger in the public consciousness for some time, according to a recent appearance detailed on YouTube. In the same interview, Oliver also dived into the meticulous planning behind that offer, giving viewers a glimpse into the mix of sincerity and mischief that defines his approach. Other memorable tidbits from those interviews include being booed at a Sesame Street gala and donning a full pirate costume at a party—a detail that generated laughs on social media and was apparently a point of contention with his wife. He also reminisced about his parents seeing him on Late Night, underscoring the human side of his relentless public persona.Professionally, Oliver continues to co-headline a popular live residency with Seth Meyers at New York's Beacon Theatre, with shows running monthly through the end of 2025—dates on July 27, September 21, October 26, November 23, and December 14 are all confirmed. According to both MSG.com and Ticketmaster, this residency is proving a hot ticket and positions Oliver as a marquee draw in contemporary comedy, keeping him firmly in the live performance spotlight.Meanwhile, on HBO, his flagship show Last Week Tonight with John Oliver keeps on rolling, with its July 7 episode delivering the usual blend of deep dives and headline commentary. Recent episodes, as noted by outlets like IMDb and JustWatch, continue to feature Oliver's signature in-depth analysis and witty critique, tackling everything from politics to global oddities. These episodes regularly stir up discussion on social media, and although specifics on viral moments from this week are unconfirmed, there is routine online buzz following each broadcast.There are no credible reports of major business ventures or new endorsements in the past few days, nor has Oliver been associated with any controversies beyond his usual satirical targets. The only speculative chatter surrounds whether his Clarence Thomas resignation stunt could have broader legal or political repercussions, but as of now, that remains in the realm of pundit speculation.As always, John Oliver's blend of incisive commentary, headline-grabbing antics, and endearing personal quirks keeps him firmly on the radar, with each appearance and broadcast offering fresh fodder for fans and commentators alike.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOta

In this week's episode, we'll be talking about the massive winged creature known as the Thunderbird.  From Native American lore, this creature ruled the skies and the upper world as a God in animal form.  In cryptozoology, the Thunderbird could be a remnant of the Teratorns, which have been extinct for over 10,000 years.  Whatever it is, it has made several appearances throughout the US and in some cases, has attempted to snatch children from their yards.  This is one big bird that has nothing to do with Sesame Street!If you have any comments, questions or stories you would like to share, or if you'd like to be on the show, email us at cryptidfanatic@gmail.com. Send us a textSupport the show

“I grew up with puppetry and voices and weird little characters. I never really let that go — I just found ways to turn it into a life.” - Nate Begle In this episode, we're joined by Nate - He's a voice actor and puppeteer with over two decades of experience in storytelling across stage, screen, and sound. His career has spanned live theme park shows, national commercials, animation, and narration work for over 30 audiobooks. Nate has collaborated with major creative institutions, including James Patterson, The Jim Henson Company, Walt Disney Entertainment, and Sesame Street. Deeply rooted in performance, character work, and voice, Nate brings a grounded and authentic presence to everything he creates. He allows the characters, not the performer, to take center stage.Nate and I nestle in for a tender, playful, and witty conversation about a life built around performance. We talk discovering creative purpose early, navigating years of invisible work, and learning how to keep showing up for the craft even when no one is watching.We talk about his roots in Midwest community theater, how Fraggle Rock cracked open a lifelong fascination with puppetry, and the reality of building a career from bits and odd jobs to full-time creative expression. Along the way, we dive into themes like staying grounded while performing, the therapeutic power of play, self-belief in the face of doubt, and the surprising joy of working just off-camera.From humor and nostalgia to identity and intention, this conversation brings small insights that build into something honest, warm, and very real.More notable quotes from the episode:- “A lot of people think voiceover is just ‘talking,' but it's not. It's acting. It's truth-telling. It's intention.”- “It's like, if you see something that's not available where you're at - then make it.”- “There's a moment where you stop trying to get it perfect and start asking if it feels true. That's when you know you're doing the work.”For more on Nate Begle, head over to his IMDB here: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm4662429/Checkout Nates website here: https://www.natebegle.com/Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@NateBegleLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nate-begle-785155bb/Hit subscribe, we'll see ya next episode.

Fëanor stands on the shoulders of the giant Rumil, Tolkien retcons the Dwarvish ‘outer names', and everything's absurd to the Elves.

"Children and adults will be able to tell 'cause the love that we put into it is vibrating from the pages. I am so happy to share this with everyone.""Ziggy brings the same joy and warmth to his books that he brings to his music, and working with him on this project has been a delight. Inspired by his own family's rituals and his father's iconic and beloved lyrics, he has created a celebration of creative play and family togetherness that's perfectly captured in Letícia Moreno's buoyant art," said Lynne Polvino, Senior Editor at Clarion Books.Marley is the eldest son of reggae icons Bob Marley and Rita Marley, and is a celebrated, eight-time Grammy Award-winning artist. He continues his father's mission of fighting for equality and social justice through his music; humanitarian work with his nonprofit, the U.R.G.E. Foundation; and long history of creating art for children and families. His album Family Time was #1 on the Reggae Charts, #2 on the Kids' Charts, and won a Grammy for Best Children's Album, as well as an Emmy for Outstanding Original Song for the video from "I Love You Too." Marley performed the Arthur theme song, "Believe in Yourself," which played at the top of every episode over its 25-year run, and he has appeared on children's television shows like Sesame Street, Fraggle Rock, and Chopped Junior. Furthering his dedication to children's literacy, PAJAMMIN' will join Marley's previous picture books, including Little John Crow, I Love You Too, My Dog Romeo, and Music Is in Everything, on shelves this summer.ABOUT ZIGGY MARLEYZiggy Marley is an eight-time Grammy winner, Emmy winner, musician, producer, humanitarian, and author with a long history of projects for kids and families, including the picture books I Love You Too, My Dog Romeo, and Music Is in Everything.

"Have you ever wondered if that family relationship you've given up on could still be healed?"Dr. Joshua Coleman shares his devastating personal journey through years of separation from his daughter. His initial defensiveness and need to be right nearly destroyed their relationship permanently. "I'd like to talk about a particularly challenging case today. It's me," he told his consultant. The breakthrough came when he learned to stop explaining and start empathizing. This painful transition became his life's mission: helping families bridge seemingly impossible divides through curiosity, vulnerability, and authentic connection.Coleman reveals the critical difference between modern psychological parenting and previous generations. Today's parents face higher expectations but often lack the emotional tools their children need. "Life is much more fragile than I imagined," he reflects, describing how estrangement changes your entire worldview. His practical guidance centers on "letters of amends"—finding truth in children's complaints rather than defending against them. For adult children, he emphasizes starting with connection goals, not blame. Can broken family bonds be repaired? Coleman's work proves healing is possible when both sides choose curiosity over being right.Dr. Joshua Coleman is a psychologist in private practice in the San Francisco Bay Area and Senior Fellow with the Council on Contemporary Families. A frequent Today Show and NPR guest, he's appeared on Good Morning America, Dr. Phil, Sesame Street, and 20/20, with features in The New Yorker and TIME Magazine. He's authored four books including "Rules of Estrangement: Why Adult Children Cut Ties and How to Heal the Conflict." Coleman writes for major publications like The New York Times, The Atlantic, and The Wall Street Journal. Interestingly, he also composes music for television shows including Keeping Up With the Kardashians and Chicago Fire.About The Show: The Life in Transition, hosted by Art Blanchford focuses on making the most of the changes we're given every week. Art has been through hundreds of transitions in his life. Many have been difficult, but all have led to a depth and richness he could never have imagined. On the podcast Art explores how to create more love and joy in life, no matter what transitions we go through. Art is married to his lifelong partner, a proud father of three and a long-time adventurer and global business executive. He is the founder and leader of the Midlife Transition Mastery Community.

Are your phone habits impacting your child’s growth? We all know kids and screens don’t mix well—but what about parents and screens? A compelling new study has uncovered a strong link between a mother’s screen time and her child’s developmental outcomes. In this Doctor’s Desk episode, Dr Justin and Kylie Coulson unpack the latest research on "technoference" and what happens to our children when our eyes are glued to our devices. The results may just change the way you use your phone—especially around your kids. KEY POINTS: Study Summary: Japanese research of ~4,000 mother-child pairs found that more than one hour of screen use by mums in front of their children correlates with lower language and social development. Two Hours or More: Greater than two hours was associated with lower global development outcomes. Technoference: The distraction of devices interrupts “serve and return” interactions—vital for healthy child development. Modelling Matters: Kids mimic their parents—mums who use screens more are more likely to have kids who use them too. TV vs. Devices: Passive screen time (TV) is less harmful than interactive, overstimulating device use—but still not ideal. Screen Time ≠ Quality Learning: Despite nostalgic memories of “learning” from Sesame Street, research shows TV is a poor teacher compared to real-world engagement. QUOTE OF THE EPISODE: "Screens are a hollow imitation of real life... real development happens in person-to-person, face-to-face interactions." RESOURCES MENTIONED: The study published in Nature Scientific Reports (March 2025) Previous podcast episodes on child screen use and brain development Happy Families website: happyfamilies.com.au ACTION STEPS FOR PARENTS: Be Present: Put down your phone when you're with your child—especially in those early years. Set Boundaries: Limit both your own and your child’s screen time with simple routines (e.g., no phones at the table or during playtime). Model Mindful Use: Show kids what healthy tech habits look like—because they’re watching. Prioritise Engagement: Make time for face-to-face chats, shared play, and reading together—real-life interactions build real brains. Use Screens Intentionally: If you need a break, opt for TV over devices, and choose age-appropriate, narrative-driven content.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How many of us parents were clueless as to the insidious agenda behind Sesame Street, the #1 most influential program on children in the history of media? We have uncovered evidence of Sesame Street promoting homosexuality as early as 1982. But, fundamentally, both the underlying worldview and social were radically humanist and socialist — from the beginning. This program includes: 1. The World View in 5 Minutes with Adam McManus (RFK Jr replaces vaccine committee, Last night to see The American Miracle movie, Muslims experienced highest growth rate among religions) 2. Generations with Kevin Swanson

Welcome back to the Autism Little Learners Podcast! If you haven't listened to Part 1 of this conversation on autism and water safety yet, be sure to go check that out first—it's episode #125. In that episode, I sat down with Dayna Harvey, a certified swim instructor who specializes in working with autistic children, and Andy Roszak, an emergency preparedness expert with experience at FEMA and the CDC. Together, we shared eye-opening statistics and essential first steps families can take to begin protecting their children around water. In this episode—Part 2—we're diving even deeper. You'll hear more from Dayna and Andy about why swim lessons alone aren't enough, how to use visual supports to reinforce water safety, and the critical role of community awareness in preventing drowning. Whether you're a parent, caregiver, teacher, or therapist, this conversation is full of actionable strategies and resources to help keep autistic children safe. Let's get started. Bio Andy Roszak, JD, MPA, EMT-Paramedic is the Founder and Chief Executive Officer of the Institute for Childhood Preparedness, where he leads efforts to strengthen emergency planning, disaster recovery, and resilience across early childhood and community-based settings. With more than 20 years of experience in public health, emergency management, and health policy, Andrew has worked at the local, state, federal, and nonprofit levels-supporting initiatives that help communities prepare for, respond to, and recover from crises. Andy is a frequent contributor and subject matter expert for Sesame Street in Communities, where he supports efforts around preparedness, disaster response, and resilience for families and caregivers. A former firefighter, paramedic, and hazardous materials technician, he has also served as a Health Policy Fellow in the U.S. Senate, a senior advisor at the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, and as a Senior Preparedness Advisor supporting Super Bowl 46 and the Indianapolis 500. Andy is an award-winning author of the Preparing for the Unexpected book series, and his work has been recognized by organizations including the Red Cross, the City of El Paso, and Sesame Street, where he was named a Sesame Street Hero. His focus is on practical, real-world strategies to help individuals, organizations, and communities be better prepared for whatever challenges may come. Andy is the proud father of two daughters, aged 1 and 4. Dayna Harvey is a Water Safety and Drowning prevention educator as well as a Swim Lesson Teacher, who specializes in working with children with autism and their parents. She has been teaching swim lessons for the past 35 years and is certified through the Red Cross as well as a program called AutismSwim. Dayna is on a MISSION to educate and empower parents with information, strategies and hands on tools to help them keep their children safer in and around water because we MUST eradicate childhood drowning. The autism community saw more drownings in 2024 than in any year prior and that has intensified Dayna's commitment to reach more parents with her message and her methods. Dayna and the Waiting Whale kids, who she created to help engage both parents and children in the education process, have developed the "Where there is water, I will WAIT!" program and The Waiting Whales - Water Safety Kit Water Safety With Miss Dayna Links: www.WaterSafetyWithMissDayna.com www.Facebook.com/WaterSafetyWithMissDayna www.Instagram.com/WaterSafetyWithMissDayna Miss Dayna's Water Safety Kit: https://watersafetywithmissdayna.com/water-safety-kit Institute For Childhood Preparedness Links: https://www.childhoodpreparedness.org/ Free Safety-Related Social Stories: https://www.childhoodpreparedness.org/printables Takeaways Water safety is crucial for all children, especially autistic children. Visual cues and predictable routines enhance learning for children. Creating a waiting area can significantly reduce drowning risks. Parents must be fully attentive when children are around water. Consistency in teaching water safety is key to success. Using a water safety kit can help establish safe practices. Children can learn to wait before entering water environments. Swim lessons should focus on both water safety and swimming skills. Parents should evaluate their home environment for water hazards. Empowering parents with knowledge is essential for preventing drownings.

Peter LaBarbera is the founder and president of Center for Morality and Americans for Truth. He's a former reporter for the Washington Times, LifeSiteNews.com, WND.com and a former contributing editor for Human Events. Interestingly, some are turning away from the moniker of June as "Pride Month" and instead, some are pushing "Fidelity Month," "Life Month," as well as "Family Month." Peter believes this is happening because the homosexual activist movement won numerous victories, including imposing so-called, same-sex marriage on America. Then they went "full-bore" on the trans issue. This invited considerable push-back, including from the feminists who didn't want men invading female spaces such as sports. Then there was the gender reassignment surgeries for children. The result is that they've reached so far that they've hit a breaking point as all of this is turning a lot of people off. Nonetheless, the homosexual activist movement continues to make headlines in various ways. For example: A Navy ship named after a gay rights icon is to be renamed. A girls high school softball team wins a championship via the arm of a male born pitcher. The American Association of Retired Persons (AARP) doubles down on their pro LGBTQ stance. Get the details on these news items and more including what's up with Target stores, Sesame Street and dangerous libraries. Listeners were part of the conversation as well, so don't forget to review this edition of Crosstalk.

The panel reacts to Sesame Street's Pride post and a new episode featuring a gender-fluid character. They slam it as grooming, discuss LGBTQ agenda in media, and call out the shift in kids' programming. Tensions rise over what kids are really being taught.

-Rob criticizes the Biden administration's Pride Month messaging, calling it pandering and insulting to most LGBTQ+ Americans, while mocking recent children's programming like Sesame Street's drag segment. -Rob interviews Lt. Col. Tony Shaffer, who warns against deeper U.S. involvement in Ukraine and discusses looming threats from Iran's nuclear ambitions.

Megan is a four-time Emmy-winning ventriloquist, singer, and producer—and the first Black woman puppeteer on Sesame Street. She began teaching herself ventriloquism at just 10 years old, driven by a dream that would shape her life. Despite earning degrees in economics and finance and building a successful career in real estate, Megan never let go of her passion for performance. After years of performing on stages big and small—including America’s Got Talent, Kelly Clarkson, TODAY, Good Morning America—Megan joined Sesame Street voicing the beloved character Gabrielle. A mother of two, Megan often speaks about the importance of play, visualization, and staying true to the dreams placed in your heart. She credits her use of vision boards and manifesting as key tools in creating the life she imagined—proof that dreams, when nurtured, really can come true. Her album Cinderella Sweep, is out this July, showcasing and empowering young women. Her story is one of talent, grit, and unwavering belief—an inspiring reminder that play has power, and that our childhood dreams are never too far out of reach.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
