“My goal isn't to win the hours. I want to be present.” — Shelley EvansWhen a “good career” starts to feel like a bad relationship, walking away is just the start. After you escape the grind, you realize the grind is YOU, and the work has just begun. Shelley and Matt share how crisis-mode and productivity hacks kept them reactive—and what changed when they chose a self‑sustaining creative practice over the fool's gold of trying to do it all, all at once.In this open, honest discussion, we look at why mainstream productivity culture fails creative people—and what actually works instead.Shelley describes realizing her Hollywood career was akin to an “abusive spouse”. After she chose to step away to write her novel, her biggest achievement wasn't logging more hours, it was moving from punishing deadlines to presence, using “marbles in a jar” to measure engaged time and pulling the Creative Focus Workshop “ripcord” to recenter herself when she got off track.Matt shares how 100-hour weeks in tech and spinning in endless “preparation” felt productive but in fact kept him from writing. When he (finally!) chose a single project, he created steadiness and progress he could trust.We talk about “finish and ship” as the foundation of art as communication, why the Motion AI calendar that postponed lunch until April is the clearest sign yet that productivity hacking is a dead end, and how short, ten‑minute sessions beat perfectionism because you discover better questions once you're in motion.If you're stuck in reactive mode, or drowning in “optimizing,” this conversation gives you simple, human practices to return to your work and keep going.Why “crisis‑competence” isn't a creative practiceThe exact moment Shelley realized the Hollywood grind was “an abusive spouse,”How “marbles in a jar” beats self‑punishment when you're stuckWhen to pull the ripcord and return to Creative Focus“Finish and ship” as the completion of an act of creative communicationThe fine line between useful tooling/worldbuilding and sophisticated procrastination“I teach productivity, but I hate ‘productivity'” — e.g. the Motion AI calendar that tried to schedule lunch in April.The value of ten‑minute sessions over painstaking perfectionYour Next StepIf you're ready to swap punishment for presence with your creative work, and actually finish, watch the free Creative Engine workshop. Master the 4 simple steps to finishing your dream creative projects!GuestsShelley Evans is a screenwriter and teacher (Harvard Extension School) whose credits include ABC, CBS, Showtime, USA, Hallmark, and Lifetime. She's now focused on her novel and on building a sustainable, presence‑based creative practice.Matt Griffin is a writer, adjunct professor (NYU IDM/ITP), conference producer (NarraScope 2025), consultant, 3D printing and biofabrication expert (MakerBot/Ultimaker).

Wir beginnen den ersten Teil unseres Programms mit einem Rückblick auf die Rede von US-Präsident Donald Trump vor der UN-Generalversammlung. Der Präsident schockierte viele mit seinen Angriffen auf die UNO, seinen Bemerkungen zur Migrationssituation in der EU und seiner Zurückweisung des Klimawandels als „Schwindel“ und „Betrug“. Anschließend sprechen wir über den ehemaligen philippinischen Präsidenten Rodrigo Duterte, der wegen Verbrechen gegen die Menschlichkeit angeklagt wurde. Unser Wissenschaftsthema widmet sich heute einem Artikel, der über einen Zusammenhang zwischen reduziertem Koffeinkonsum und lebhafteren Träumen berichtet. Und zum Schluss sprechen wir über die Verleihung der Ig-Nobelpreise 2025, mit denen skurrile, aber innovative Forschungsarbeiten ausgezeichnet werden.

Sometimes the most powerful Reinventions don't start with a plan, but with two people realizing their different strengths belong in the same story.In this episode, I chat with the wonderful Meredith Lavender and Kendall Shores, the dynamic co-authors of the sizzling debut novel Happy Wife. Happy Wife has captured national attention as a "Read with Jenna Book Club Pick," a SheReads Must-Read, and a Paste.com Most Anticipated Thriller. The novel has earned widespread praise, including Jenna Bush Hager's “delicious, fun summer book” endorsement, along with acclaim from Booklist and Red Carpet Crash.But before their success, Meredith spent decades shaping stories in Hollywood, show running The Flight Attendant and developing new series with Netflix, Showtime and Paramount+, while Kendall built her career in communications, beginning with grant writing at the Orlando Science Center before moving into strategy roles at Children's Healthcare of Atlanta and Mailchimp.Their journeys took a turn when Kendall turned 40 and chose to stop telling herself the story that she couldn't write a novel, just as Meredith was navigating the writers' strike and searching for a new creative outlet beyond television.Together, they represent two sides of the same coin, and show what happens when you put different strengths together. As two working moms, they blended carpools with Zooms, powered through their first draft in a single summer with a fail-fast mentality, and showed that momentum outweighs perfection. More than anything, it's about the courage to say your dream out loud, the power of creating with others, and the reminder that reinvention is possible—and exhilarating—at any stage of life.Key Takeaways Embrace a fail fast mentality - experiment quickly, learn, and keep moving forward.It's okay not to grind at the desk every day - sometimes the best creativity comes from stepping away, sitting on the couch, or just taking a breather.Saying your dream out loud invites accountability and energy - when others hear it, they often help you bring it to life.When your hobby becomes your job - build new rituals and outlets so your passion doesn't get lost in deadlines.Confidence often comes after action - momentum builds belief faster than waiting to “feel ready.”Link to their book: https://www.amazon.com/Happy-Wife-Novel-Meredith-Lavender/dp/0593974379https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/771523/happy-wife-a-read-with-jenna-pick-by-meredith-lavender-and-kendall-shores/Learn More about the Authors: https://www.meredithandkendall.com/Kathi Sharpe-Ross and all things RE:INVENTION:IG: https://www.instagram.com/kathisr_chief_reinventor/FB: https://www.facebook.com/kathi.sharpeross/LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kathisharpeross Twitter: https://twitter.com/ReinventionExchTHE RE:INVENTION EXCHANGE - for more Inspired Content, Blogs, Podcasts, RE:INVENTION Virtual Chats, or to buy a copy of my book RE:INVENT YOUR LIFE!

In this special episode of The Underground Lounge, Lou and Spank welcome an icon who truly needs no introduction: Flea, the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame bassist for the Red Hot Chili Peppers. Known for his explosive stage presence and innovative bass lines, Flea takes us through the journey of his life and career with honesty, humor, and reflection.The conversation begins with his early childhood and the jazz influences that shaped him, from Miles Davis to John Coltrane, and how picking up a bass in high school completely changed his world. Flea shares how his lifelong friendship with Anthony Kiedis sparked the foundation of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, and how their bond, while tested over the decades, has been the glue holding the band together through lineup changes, global tours, and creative evolution. He recalls the band's rise from gritty L.A. clubs to massive stadiums, memorable festival moments, and the infamous chaos of Woodstock.Beyond the music, Flea opens up about his personal growth. He discusses the turning point that led him to give up hard drugs in his 30s, the role of sobriety in helping him embrace health and creativity, and how fatherhood continues to shape his perspective. He emphasizes the importance of self-love, learning from childhood traumas, and finding joy in constant growth, whether through reading, exploring new art, or picking up a basketball to shoot around at 57 years old.Naturally, basketball plays a big role in the conversation. A die-hard Lakers fan, Flea reminisces about the Showtime era with Magic and Kareem, the ups and downs of the team over the years, and his respect for LeBron James's longevity and excellence. The discussion connects the worlds of sports and music, highlighting how teamwork, trust, and chemistry are just as crucial on the court as they are on stage.The crew also touch on the cultural shifts in music, from the originality demanded in earlier eras to today's algorithm-driven sameness, and Flea reflects on the importance of pushing boundaries and staying true to individuality. He also shines a light on his nonprofit, the Silverlake Conservatory of Music, which has been teaching hundreds of kids every week for over two decades, giving them the same gift of music that changed his own life.From smashing guitars to smashing stereotypes, Flea proves why he's one of the most compelling figures in modern music. This episode is equal parts funny, insightful, and inspiring, offering a rare glimpse into the mind of a rock legend who's still as passionate, curious, and relentless as ever.

Comenzaremos la primera parte del programa repasando la actualidad. La noticia del asesinato de Charlie Kirk ha impactado a mucha gente en Estados Unidos y en el resto del mundo. ¿Traerá su muerte venganza o reconciliación a EE. UU.? Las primeras señales no sugieren que el país se encamine hacia la reconciliación. A continuación, discutiremos la exigencia de Trump de que todos los países de la OTAN dejen de comprar petróleo ruso antes de que imponga sanciones a Rusia. ¿Qué hay detrás de esta exigencia? ¿Es una manera de evitar sanciones estadounidenses a Rusia? La sección de ciencia y tecnología la dedicaremos a comentar un estudio que indica que a un 44 % de las personas con diabetes no les han diagnosticado la enfermedad. Un dato sorprendente es que solo un 20 % de los adultos jóvenes de menos de 35 años son conscientes de padecer la dolencia. Y, para acabar, hablaremos de una ley promulgada en Uzbekistán que permite a los presos reducir sus condenas en hasta 30 días al año si leen libros de una lista designada. El resto del episodio de hoy lo dedicaremos a la lengua y la cultura españolas. La primera conversación incluirá ejemplos del tema de gramática de la semana, Uses of Por - Part I. En esta conversación hablaremos de Benito Pérez Galdós, el gran escritor del realismo urbano del siglo XIX. Leeremos un párrafo del libro Misericordia y con nuestra imaginación visitaremos ese Madrid antiguo que tan bien describe el autor. Y, en nuestra última conversación, aprenderemos a usar una nueva expresión española, todos los caminos llevan a Roma. La usaremos para hablar del sistema educativo español, y las diferentes opciones que tienen los alumnos de secundaria para acceder al mundo laboral. Veremos que incluso sin aprobar la Educación Secundaria Obligatoria, los alumnos podrían acceder a la Universidad. ¿Traerá el asesinato de Charlie Kirk venganza o reconciliación a EE. UU.? Trump exige que todos los países de la OTAN dejen de comprar petróleo ruso antes de que él imponga sanciones A casi la mitad de la gente con diabetes no le han diagnosticado la enfermedad Leer libros puede reducir el tiempo de cárcel en Uzbekistán Benito Pérez Galdós, novelista del realismo El modelo educativo en España
Den ersten Teil unserer Sendung beginnen wir mit einem Rückblick auf aktuelle Ereignisse. Die Nachricht der Ermordung von Charlie Kirk hat viele in den USA und auch darüber hinaus schockiert. Wird es Rache oder Versöhnung für die USA bedeuten? Die ersten Anzeichen deuten nicht darauf hin, dass das Land auf einen Versöhnungskurs zusteuert. Als Nächstes sprechen wir über die Forderung von Trump, dass alle NATO-Staaten den Kauf von russischem Öl einstellen sollen, bevor er Sanktionen gegen Russland verhängen wird. Was steckt hinter dieser Forderung? Ist dies ein Weg, um Sanktionen gegen Russland umgehen zu können? Unser Bereich Wissenschaft und Technologie widmet sich einer Studie, die zeigt, dass 44 % der Menschen mit Diabetes nicht diagnostiziert sind. Eine schockierende Tatsache ist, dass nur 20 % der jungen Erwachsenen unter 35 Jahren sich ihrer Erkrankung bewusst sind. Abschließend beschäftigen wir uns mit einem in Usbekistan verabschiedeten Gesetz, dass Häftlingen ermöglicht, ihre Strafe um bis zu 30 Tage pro Jahr zu verkürzen, indem sie Bücher von einer benannten Liste lesen. Der Rest des Programms ist der deutschen Sprache und Kultur gewidmet. Die heutige Grammatiklektion konzentriert sich auf Subordinating Conjunctions - Part 1. Wir reden über ein Video, das in den sozialen Medien vor einiger Zeit Aufsehen erregt hat. Eine junge Frau beschwert sich darüber, dass eine Treppe in Lissabon nicht der deutschen Norm entspricht. Doch nicht nur Treppen sind genormt, sondern erstaunlich viele andere Dinge im Alltag. Heute reden wir über die Redewendung “Das ist das Gelbe vom Ei”. Dazu fällt uns auf Anhieb die deutsche Spezialeinheit GSG 9 ein, die in Deutschland für besonders schwierige Einsätze zuständig ist. Sie ist zwar nicht die einzige Spezialeinheit in Deutschland, aber die bekannteste. Sie gilt als eine der besten Spezialeinheiten der Welt. Bedeutet die Ermordung von Charlie Kirk Rache oder Versöhnung für die USA? Trump fordert von allen NATO-Staaten den Kaufstopp von Öl aus Russland, bevor er Sanktionen erlassen wird Fast die Hälfte der Menschen mit Diabetes weiß nichts von ihrer Erkrankung Lesen von Büchern kann zu verkürzter Haftstrafe führen Die Treppe ist nicht genormt Die GSG 9 der Bundespolizei
You're listening to Burnt Toast! Today, my guest is Denise Hamburger, founder and director of Be Real USA. Be Real is a nonprofit that imagines a world where every child can grow up with a healthy relationship to food and their body. They work with body image researchers, psychologists, teachers and public health officials to design curricula about nutrition and body image that are weight neutral, and inclusive of all genders, abilities, races and body sizes.So many of you reach out to me every September to say, “Oh my God, you're not going to believe what my kid is learning in health class.” Food logs, fitness trackers, other diet tools are far too common in our classrooms— especially in middle and high school health class. Denise is here to help us understand why those assignments are so harmful and talk about what parents and educators can do differently.

Actually, about 12 years ago. I was an environmental lawyer in my first career—that's what I'm trained to do. I went to law school, was practicing in big law firms. Which has nothing to do with body image, except I was an environmental lawyer who weighed herself every day and got her mood affected by the number on the scale for 40 years. So that's four decades.VirginiaSo many times getting on a scale.DeniseI really felt like I didn't want anyone else, especially young women today, to waste the amount of time and energy that I had wasted distracting them from what they need to be doing in their lives, figuring out their own person possibilities. That's really what you're here to do. And it takes us away from what we're supposed to be doing.With that in mind, I went back to school at the University of Chicago, and I was thinking of get a social work degree and doing something with body image. But then I wrote a paper on my own body image for one of my classes at the School of Social Work and I found 50 years of research on body image. And then 30 years of discussion and research on how to prevent eating disorders and body dissatisfaction. Like, wow, there is so much out there, so much research on this. But I haven't heard any of this. It feels like it's not making its way into resources that people can use.So I started speaking on it, and I was speaking to middle-aged women, and I thought the message that we all would really benefit from would be everybody's got this. Because I feel like, especially my generation, where we didn't really talk about how we felt about our bodies. I'm at the tail end of the Baby Boom. So I'm 62 and I felt that people in my generation—again, I was 50 at the time—weren't in touch with their own feelings on body image. After talking about this for so many years, younger generations have access to it I think a lot more. But I felt like we could all benefit from knowing that everybody's got it—so kind of a common humanity. It's not our fault, which helps with the shame around it.So everyone has it, it's not our fault, and society has given it to us. And I think that this is something that would resonate with my generation. So I started speaking in local libraries and community houses to women my age, and quickly learned that it is really hard to undo decades worth of thought patterns and feelings around food, body and eating. People came to hear me talk about body image, and I think, in general, when I started out, they were hoping I had a new diet.VirginiaOh, I'm sure they were. I'm sure they were like, “Oh, we're going to go hear her talk about how to love your body by making it smaller!”DeniseAbsolutely. And all of the women, because they were women in my workshops, were starting to talk about their daughters. They're saying that my daughter's got this, and she's coming home and saying this. Then in one of my audiences, I had a health teacher at my local high school. There was a health teacher who came and said—this is about 2015—you should hear what the young girls are saying. They've got this new thing called Instagram and and they're seeing pictures of, “perfect” looking people and feeling bad about themselves or feeling flawed in comparison.So she said, “What resources are there for for the students in my class?” And I said, there has got to be something because there is 50 years' of research there, there has got to be something fabulous for you. And I called the professors listed on the the studies. The granddaddy of the industry, Michael Levine, I called him up. I said, “Michael, just tell me, what can I recommend to these teachers?” And he's like, “I don't know. I don't know. We don't have it. It's not there. Even though the research is there.”So there was a curriculum created for high risk kids. It needed to be given by facilitators called The Body Project. And I called one of the professors who wrote The Body Project and said, “Listen, I'd like to give this tool to a teacher for universal,” which means giving it to everybody in the classroom, and and she wants to bring it to her high school, but it looks like you need to be trained. And it was a script. The Body Project was a script. And this teacher said to me, I'm not reading a script in a classroom. You're not going to get a high school teacher to read a script.VirginiaYeah. I would imagine high school students sitting in a classroom aren't going to respond to someone just reading a script at them.DeniseNobody wants to hear it. It's not useful. It wasn't created for that use. So this professor, Carolyn Becker, had actually written a paper on how the academics need to work with stakeholders to make sure that their research makes it to the public. And I said, I'm calling you. I'm a stakeholder. What do you need? And she said, “We need somebody to translate it.” And I said, “I'm your girl.”VirginiaI mean, it's wild that the research has been there. We've known what works, or what strategies to use for so long, and yet it's not in the pedagogy, it's not in the classrooms.So you started with the body image curriculum, BodyKind. And now this year, you've just released your weight neutral nutrition curriculum for middle and high school students, called Let's Eat.Full disclosure: I got to be a early reader of the of the curriculum and offer a few notes. It was already amazing when I read it.DeniseThank you.VirginiaI did not have to add a lot at any by any means, but it was really cool to see the development process, and see where you ended up with it. It's really remarkable. So let's start by talking about why nutrition. You've done the body image thing, that's really powerful. Why was nutrition the next logical place to go?DeniseI have spoken at this point to probably 10,000 teachers. And they're always asking me, what nutrition curriculum do you recommend? Same deal. There's not one out thereAnd I had asked one of my interns to give me her textbook on it, like what are you learning about nutrition? And in my intern's textbook, it was 2018, you saw encapsulated the entire problem of what's wrong with nutrition curriculum.They are asking the children to weigh and measure themselves, and they're asking the children to count calories in different ways, and to track their food. Food logs. Again, these were best practices in the 90s and and 2000s on how to teach nutrition. So this is all over the nutrition curriculum.Then, of course, they're talking about good and bad foods, which foods can you eat, which foods you can't you eat, and all of these things in the research we know cause disordered eating and eating disorders, they all contribute to it. I have a list of probably nine research papers that point to each of these things and tell you why these are bad ideas to have a nutrition class.And we also know there have been two papers written, where they polled students or young people coming in for eating disorder treatment and asked them, what do you think triggered your eating disorder? And around 14% in both studies said, “My healthy eating curriculum at school was where I started getting this obsession.” So you know, what's out there hasn't been helpful, and even worse, has been part of the problem in our society.[Post-recording note: Here's Mallary Tenore Tarpley writing about this research in the Washington Post, and quoting Oona Hanson!]VirginiaIt's so rooted in our moral panic around “the childhood obesity epidemic.” Educators, public health officials, everyone feels like, that's the thing we have to be worried about if we're going to talk about kids and food. It all has to be framed through that lens. And what you are arguing is: That weight-centered approach causes harm. We can see from the data that it's not “fixing” the obesity epidemic. Kids aren't thinner than they were 40 years ago. So it didn't work. And it's having all these unintended ripple effects, or sometimes, I would say, intended ripple effects.DeniseYes, exactly. Studies on nutrition curriculum have shown that over 11 years, teaching diet and exercise did not do anything, in two age groups. One was elementary/middle school, another one was a high school group. And they found no changes in body size or nutritional knowledge and and only the effects of what they call weight stigma. Which is just anti-fat bias. So it only causes harm. And these meta studies were from “obesity researchers,” right? So they are even acknowledging we don't know how to prevent obesity.VirginiaSo you could see very clearly why the current landscape is harmful. How did you think about how to design a better curriculum?DeniseWe had been working on the back burner on an intuitive eating for students type of curriculum. Because the question I get from my teachers is, “What should I be teaching?” So we had been kind of working on an intuitive eating curriculum, and then one of my ambassadors, Selena Salfen, she works in Ramsey County Public Health in Minnesota, said, “Hey, we're looking for a nutrition curriculum. Why don't we do one together?”It really turned into how to eat, not what to eat. So we started working on body cues and building trust with your food. And then started really focusing on empowering the student as an authority on their own eating behavior, teaching them how to learn from their own eating experiences. Which is part of responsive feeding. And Ellyn Satter's Division of Responsibility In Feeding. So we have pieces from all of these. We are empowering students to be experts on their own eating.VirginiaIt's also so much more respectful of students' cultural backgrounds, as opposed to the way we learned, like the food pyramid or MyPlate, saying “this is what your plate should look like.” And that doesn't look like many plates around the world. That's not what dinner is in lots of families. Your curriculum is saying, let's empower students to be the experts is letting them own their own experience.DeniseAbsolutely, and trust their own experience. And trust themselves. And they don't have to go outside of themselves. We want to teach them to act in their own best interests. That's part of self-care, teaching them to take care of themselves. They need to learn it somewhere.So if you do what they've done for years and tell them you need to cut out sugar and you need to cut out carbs, or you need to get this this many grams of protein, it leaves off all of the wonderful parts of eating that we get to experience many times a day, which is the joy, the pleasure, the sharing of food. So in our curriculum, we ask the kids, what do you do in your culture around food? How do you celebrate in your culture with food? What do you eat?We get the discussion going with them and allowing them to feel pride in how their family celebrates. And so it's really bringing in all these other aspects that we experience with food every day into talking about food. And we talk about pleasure, what do you like, what food do you like, what food do you enjoy? And we want them to be able to hold what foods they like, what their needs are that day.So you talked about MyPlate, MyPlate is stagnant. It always looks the same. But your nutritional needs change every day. If I'm sick, my needs around nourishment are different from if I've got a soccer match after school that day. So we're trying to teach them to be flexible and really throw perfectionism out the window, because it's unhelpful in any area of life, but especially around eating, especially around food.VirginiaI'm wondering what you're hearing from school districts who are worrying about the federal guidelines. Because they do need to be in compliance with certain things. DeniseSo we spent a long time with the Food and Nutrition guidelines. The CDC food and nutrition guidelines, and we spent a long time with the HECAT standards, which are the health curriculum standards. We know that teachers are trying to match up what they're teaching to the federal standards and the state standards. Because every state has their own discussion of this, and they write their own rules. Usually they look like the federal standards, but we find with food and nutrition, sometimes they go off. You'll get somebody on the committee who hates soda, and will write 10 rules around soda. So every state has their own idiosyncratic rules around it as well.VirginiaI mean, on the flip side, that means there have been opportunities for advocacy. For example in Maryland, Sarah Ganginis was able to make real progress on her state standards. But yes, the downside is you're gonna have the anti-soda committee showing up.DeniseTotally. And half of the country. We really tried to hit the big standards. I'm actually thumbing through the curriculum right now. We have two pages of the HECAT model food nutrition lessons and which ones this curriculum hits. And then if you're interested in talking about some of the others — like some of them really want to talk about specifically sugary drinks— we give links in the curriculum to discussions that we agree with. So we may mention sugary drinks in a little piece of the curriculum, but if you want to get the article or the discussion on it that frames it the way we'd like to see it framed, we've got links in the curriculum for that.VirginiaSo tell me about the response so far. What are you hearing from teachers and districts?DeniseThe biggest response I'm getting is, “It's a breath of fresh air.” It's safe, as you say. And for the teachers out there that are familiar with all of the things that we've been teaching that haven't been working, this is important. And I just want to say to all the health teachers who have been teaching nutrition out there because this is the way we've taught it for years: This is how it's been done. But when you know better, you do better. And that's the point we're at now. I know people have been weighing and measuring kids and telling them to count calories for decades because that was best practices at the time. But we're beyond that. The research has figured out that that's not the best practices going forward.VirginiaThat's right.DeniseWe had about 50 teachers and 250 students trial it. We get the experts to say everything we want to say in the curriculum, and we put it in there, and then let's say that takes nine months. We have another nine months where we have expert teachers like Sarah weighing in on the curriculum. Telling us what happens when she teaches it in class with her and the students. What would you like to see different? Even down to activities. How would this activity work better? So we spent another nine months making sure that the teachers and the students like it, can relate to it, and that the activities are what are working in class.So that's an extra step after some of the other research curriculum that we really want to make sure it's user friendly and the students like it. We got a lot of feedback. We did two rounds of that.Now we released it to the public after we had a masters student write a thesis on all of the the data we collected, and felt very comfortable that it does no harm.VirginiaIt's been tested.DeniseYeah, it's been tested. It's feasible and acceptable. Now we're going to go and do the official feasibility and acceptability tests, like we've done on BodyKind with Let's Eat and then take it to schools. We use the University of North Carolina's IRB. We use the Mind Body Lab there, run by Dr. Jennifer Webb, and we are going to be doing research on Let's Eat. We've got the Portland Public Schools, and then we've got a school district in Maryland, in Arundel County, that we've identified and that we're working with to test students. And then, we'll hopefully do an official test, write an official paper, as we've done with BodyKind.VirginiaAnd I should also mention, you're making this resource free! Schools don't have to pay for this, which I think everyone who's ever tried to make any change in the school district of any kind knows, if it costs money, it's harder to get done. So that's great. DeniseYou know, it's so funny. I've been speaking on this for years. I mean, we've been in curriculum development for five years, and I always forget to say that! I don't know why. It's a free curriculum! I'm a nonprofit. I've never been paid. This is such a passion project for me, and I continue to wake up every day energized by the work I'm doing.And the mission of our nonprofit is to get the best, well tested resources out to schools. And we want to remove barriers. And how we remove barriers is offering it for free.VirginiaA lot of our listeners are parents. They're going to be listening to this thinking, “Okay, I want this in my kid's school.” How do we do that? What do you recommend parents do? DeniseSo a couple things. We find the best advocate is the person at the school, the wellness professional, charged with curriculum decisions. So there are people in your district whose job it is to make sure that the teachers have the latest and greatest curriculum on nutrition.And they want these resources because they want to make sure that their students get the best resources out there. So it takes a little bit of sleuthing to call up the school, whether it's the administrator or a health teacher, and figure out who's that person, who's the wellness coordinator. It could be a wellness coordinator. It could be a health teacher, who's responsible for curriculum. Find that person and talk to them. They're looking for this conversation. It's part of their job. You could even say I heard about this new curriculum. It's available for free. And you can hand them the postcard. That's what I hand out when I speak at conferences. And it's got a QR code. It describes what this curriculum does. We teach tuned in eating. It describes what tuned in eating does. VirginiaDownload that PDF above to QR code it right from this episode! DeniseYes. So you can send them as a PDF. You can write an email, figure out who the person is, send them the curriculum. Say “I was listening to a podcast, and there's this great curriculum out there. I'd love you to check it out.”VirginiaI think that feels really doable, it's a great starting point. What about when a kid comes home and tells a parent “Oh, we did calorie counting today?” Because that's often how parents start to think about this issue. It kind of lands on their lap. Is it useful to engage directly with the teacher? How do you think about that piece of it? Because obviously, especially the school year is underway, asking a teacher like, hey, can you just change your whole curriculum right on a dime, they probably won't appreciate that. So, what's a, better way to think about this advocacy?DeniseI thought you did a great job in your book Fat Talk on giving them scripts, giving parents scripts to walk into the school. You want to be sensitive to how overloaded the health teacher is, the nutrition teacher is. They're teaching 10 subjects in health that they need to be experts on so, you know, this is just one piece of what they're teaching.The great thing about nutrition is, most health teachers are teaching nutrition so they've got some background in it, and you can just be as sensitive as possible to their time and do as you say in the book, you know, in a in a positive, collaborative way. “I heard about this research, I thought you might be interested,” rather than a critical way. And and again, your kid might not be taking health, they might just be in the school district. So maybe you have this discussion with an administrator, and ask them, who wants to talk to me about this? And ask them, who can I speak to? It could be a guidance counselor. Could be school social worker. You know, this is eating disorder and body dissatisfaction prevention, right? So who, who is interested in this topic?VirginiaWho in the district is working on that and wants to know about this? That's super helpful.And I'll also add: One thing I learned in reporting the book and thinking more about the school issue is we do, as parents, always have the right to opt our kids out of the assignments that we know to be harmful. So if you see a calorie counting assignment coming, you can ask for an alternative assignment. You can accept that your kid might get a lower grade because they don't do it, but that might feel fair.Especially with older kids, I think it's important to involve them. Like, don't just swoop in. Never a good idea. They may want to talk to the teacher or you have do it. Work that out with your kid and figure out the best way forward. But I think it's definitely worth doing that. If your kid's like, no, don't talk to the teacher. No, I'm not opting out. You can still have the conversation at home about why this assignment is not aligned with your values, and that's yes important to do, too.DeniseI also wanted to say, we have an ambassador program at Be Real, and we have 135 ambassadors. What we've done with all of the materials we've been using for 10 years, which are presentations and worksheets for the presentations. We have frequently asked questions, where I quote you all the time. What do I do with my mother in law, who's saying this thing? We give them scripts. What do I do when people equate body size with health? What do we do when people assume that everyone could be small if they tried hard enough? We have answers for all of these questions in our materials, frequently asked questions.I have templated the presentations I give. I use the notes, I give the talk track, so my ambassadors can give a talk with a teleprompter if they're doing it on Zoom. Use the presentation as a teleprompter, and all the accompanying material we have on Canva that the ambassadors can create their own and add to it, and use their own name and picture to give talks and and things like that. We've got all of this so people are able to take this resource to their own local area,VirginiaSo they might give this talk to a PTA or a church group or any kind of community organization they're affiliated with.DeniseAbsolutely. And we've been doing this for about seven years, and the last five years, it's grown tremendously, and we have meetings every quarter. And at the meetings, people say, how do I get into my local school? And someone else will say, you know, I tried the principal and they didn't answer my phone calls. And then I went and looked up so and so and and then I started out doing this for professional development for health teachers in the state of Illinois. So we also have ways to to be certified as a professional development trainer on this topic. So that's how I initially got to health teachers. And then they also speak at conferences. So I speak at National SHAPE, which is the health teacher conference, but there are state SHAPE conferences out there that my Ambassadors will go speak at and it's really how to get all of this material, another way to get it disseminated all throughout the world.VirginiaOh, I love that. Well, we will definitely link in the show notes for anyone who's interested in becoming about an ambassador. ButterDeniseI am obsessed with Orna Guralnik, she is a psychotherapist who has a show on Showtime called Couples Therapy.VirginiaYes, I've been hearing about this.DeniseOh my God, it is so good. I don't know why I like it so much, but I just binge watched the new season. And I say every time, I've got to string it out and enjoy it, but no, it's impossible. And so I just binge watched the whole season, and as I was preparing for this interview, I just kept Googling what podcast she's been on.VirginiaThat's so satisfying. I love when you get a really good rabbit hole to dive down with the show. Another podcast I really enjoy, called Dire Straights , hosted by two writers, Amanda Montei and Tracy Clark-Flory, they just did an episode looking at the history of couples therapy and it actually has a pretty problematic history. Was not always great for women, very much developed as a way to help husbands control unruly wives—but has become other things. But you would enjoy that episode because they talk quite a bit about the show couples therapy and, she's obviously doing something quite different.DeniseOkay, that's my next one. Definitely going out and getting that.VirginiaI will also do a TV show butter, because they are so satisfying. I just started watching with my middle schooler a show that's been off the air for a few years now. It's called it's Better Things, starring Pamela Adlon and created by her. It's about a divorced mom with three daughters. She's a working actor in LA but it's just like about their life. It's very funny. It's very real and kind of gritty. My middle schooler and I have watched a lot of sitcoms together, and this is definitely a more adult show than we've watched before. But it's still a family show, and it's just, it's so so good. It's just a really incredible authentic portrayal of mothers and daughters. Which, you know, being a mother and a daughter, sometimes I'm like, is this making you like me more? Is this making you appreciate me? Probably not.DeniseHaving raised three kids, I don't aspire to that anymore.VirginiaNot the goal, not the goal.DeniseJust never going to show up.VirginiaBut it is really sweet bonding in a way that I hadn't expected. So that is my recommendation.DeniseLovely, lovely, lovely.VirginiaAll right, Denise. Tell folks again, just in case anyone missed it. Where do we find you? Where do we find the curriculums? How do we support your work?DeniseCome to berealusa.org—that's our website. We have more information on everything I've mentioned, on all of the curriculum, on how to become an ambassador, and just more explanation. On the website, we have fact sheets on everything we do. So if you go in, I think on the homepage, you drop down, they'll say fact sheets. And we also have probably have 10 fact sheets that will give you more information on this. We also talk about why you shouldn't be taking BMI school. We had a “don't weigh me in school” campaign about five years ago that kind of went viral. So anyway, that's all good on our website.The Burnt Toast Podcast is produced and hosted by Virginia Sole-Smith (follow me on Instagram) and Corinne Fay, who runs @SellTradePlus, and Big Undies.The Burnt Toast logo is by Deanna Lowe.Our theme music is by Farideh.Tommy Harron is our audio engineer.Thanks for listening and for supporting anti-diet, body liberation journalism!

Den ersten Teil unserer Sendung beginnen wir mit einem Rückblick auf aktuelle Ereignisse. Die Nachricht der Ermordung von Charlie Kirk hat viele in den USA und auch darüber hinaus schockiert. Wird es Rache oder Versöhnung für die USA bedeuten? Die ersten Anzeichen deuten nicht darauf hin, dass das Land auf einen Versöhnungskurs zusteuert. Als Nächstes sprechen wir über die Forderung von Trump, dass alle NATO-Staaten den Kauf von russischem Öl einstellen sollen, bevor er Sanktionen gegen Russland verhängen wird. Was steckt hinter dieser Forderung? Ist dies ein Weg, um Sanktionen gegen Russland umgehen zu können? Unser Bereich Wissenschaft und Technologie widmet sich einer Studie, die zeigt, dass 44 % der Menschen mit Diabetes nicht diagnostiziert sind. Eine schockierende Tatsache ist, dass nur 20 % der jungen Erwachsenen unter 35 Jahren sich ihrer Erkrankung bewusst sind. Abschließend beschäftigen wir uns mit einem in Usbekistan verabschiedeten Gesetz, dass Häftlingen ermöglicht, ihre Strafe um bis zu 30 Tage pro Jahr zu verkürzen, indem sie Bücher von einer benannten Liste lesen. Der Rest des Programms ist der deutschen Sprache und Kultur gewidmet. Die heutige Grammatiklektion konzentriert sich auf Subordinating Conjunctions - Part 1. Wir reden über ein Video, das in den sozialen Medien vor einiger Zeit Aufsehen erregt hat. Eine junge Frau beschwert sich darüber, dass eine Treppe in Lissabon nicht der deutschen Norm entspricht. Doch nicht nur Treppen sind genormt, sondern erstaunlich viele andere Dinge im Alltag. Heute reden wir über die Redewendung “Das ist das Gelbe vom Ei”. Dazu fällt uns auf Anhieb die deutsche Spezialeinheit GSG 9 ein, die in Deutschland für besonders schwierige Einsätze zuständig ist. Sie ist zwar nicht die einzige Spezialeinheit in Deutschland, aber die bekannteste. Sie gilt als eine der besten Spezialeinheiten der Welt. Bedeutet die Ermordung von Charlie Kirk Rache oder Versöhnung für die USA? Trump fordert von allen NATO-Staaten den Kaufstopp von Öl aus Russland, bevor er Sanktionen erlassen wird Fast die Hälfte der Menschen mit Diabetes weiß nichts von ihrer Erkrankung Lesen von Büchern kann zu verkürzter Haftstrafe führen Die Treppe ist nicht genormt Die GSG 9 der Bundespolizei

Comenzaremos el programa discutiendo la actualidad. El tema de la primera discusión trata sobre el cambio de nombre del Departamento de Defensa de EE. UU. a “Departamento de la Guerra”. Continuaremos con una larga y enconada disputa histórica entre Ucrania y Polonia que fue resuelta entre los dos países. La siguiente noticia es sobre un documento enviado al Departamento de Energía de EE. UU. por 85 científicos del clima, en respuesta al informe sobre el cambio climático elaborado por la Administración Trump. Y, para acabar, hablaremos del canon cultural del Gobierno sueco, que consiste en 100 obras, marcas e ideas que ayudan a definir la identidad sueca. Sorprendentemente, el grupo ABBA no fue incluido en la lista. El resto del episodio de hoy lo dedicaremos a la lengua y la cultura españolas. En ambas conversaciones viajaremos al siglo XVI. La primera conversación incluirá ejemplos del tema de gramática de la semana, General Use of prepositions Por and Para - Overview. En esta conversación hablaremos de los matrimonios reales en la España del siglo XVI. Los enlaces matrimoniales se utilizaban para forjar alianzas políticas, asegurar la sucesión al trono y consolidar el linaje. ¡Los príncipes y princesas nunca se casaban por amor! Y, en nuestra última conversación, aprenderemos a usar una nueva expresión española, Al pan, pan y al vino, vino. La usaremos para hablar de San Lorenzo de El Escorial, el mausoleo real de los padres del rey Felipe II, construido en el último tercio del siglo XVI. Esta edificación está considerada como la octava Maravilla del Mundo, y en 1984 fue declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la Unesco. Expressions: Al pan, pan y al vino, vino — to call a spade a spade Trump vuelve a cambiar el Departamento de Defensa a Departamento de la Guerra Ucrania y Polonia intentan resolver una disputa de la Segunda Guerra Mundial Los científicos del clima critican el informe climático de la Administración Trump El canon cultural del Gobierno sueco, calificado de nacionalista y excluyente Matrimonios reales en la España del siglo XVI Al pan, pan y al vino, vino — to call a spade a spade
Wie immer beginnen wir unser Programm mit einem Rückblick auf einige aktuelle Ereignisse. Das Thema unserer ersten Diskussion ist die Umbenennung des US-Verteidigungsministeriums in „Kriegsministerium“. Anschließend sprechen wir über einen seit langem bestehenden historischen Streit zwischen der Ukraine und Polen, der nun endlich beigelegt wird. Danach geht es um ein Dokument, das von 85 Klimawissenschaftlern als Reaktion auf den Klimawandel-Bericht der Trump-Regierung verfasst wurde. Und zum Schluss sprechen wir über den Kulturkanon der schwedischen Regierung, der aus 100 Werken, Marken und Ideen besteht, die die schwedische Identität definieren sollen. Überraschenderweise hat es ABBA nicht auf die Liste geschafft. Der Rest des Programms ist der deutschen Sprache und Kultur gewidmet. Die heutige Grammatiklektion konzentriert sich auf Coordinating Conjunctions. Wir sprechen über den Schrebergarten. Das ist ein kleines Stück Land, dass man in Deutschland pachten kann, um Obst und Gemüse anzubauen und sich eine Auszeit vom städtischen Trubel zu gönnen. Für einige ist der Schrebergarten eine persönliche Oase, für andere der Inbegriff von Spießigkeit. (Pause, Themawechsel) Wenn man eigene Hühner und täglich frische Eier haben will, gibt es viel zu beachten. Jeder sollte sich über die Anfangskosten und Unterhaltskosten im Klaren sein. Auf jeden Fall muss man von zäher Natur sein, und genau das ist die Redewendung dieser Woche.

La primera conversación del programa será sobre la cumbre de la Organización de Cooperación de Shanghái, que fue una muestra de unidad entre los dirigentes de China, India y Rusia. En la segunda noticia hablaremos del 80º aniversario de la rendición de Japón, que marcó el inicio de una era de alianzas y libre comercio. Ahora, los recuerdos de la guerra se están disipando, y con ellos el consenso sobre cómo evitar que se repita. Después, pasaremos a hablar de un estudio científico que ofrece pruebas del cruce de especies entre el Homo sapiens y los neardentales. El estudio altera el cronograma comúnmente aceptado para el cruce de las especies, que se habría iniciado aproximadamente 100.000 años antes de lo que se creía. Y, finalmente, hablaremos del Beer Mile World Classic, que se celebró recientemente en la capital de Portugal. La segunda parte del programa de hoy lo dedicaremos a la lengua y la cultura españolas. La primera conversación incluirá ejemplos del tema de gramática de la semana, The Comparison - Part III. En esta conversación hablaremos del consumo de cerveza en España. Comentaremos las nuevas tendencias en cerveza y qué aporta el sector cervecero a la economía española. Y, en nuestra última conversación, aprenderemos a usar una nueva expresión española, No ser moco de pavo. La usaremos para hablar de algunos récords Guinness de nuestro país. Todos ellos son increíbles, sin duda, pero lo más increíble es que hay gente que se dedica a coleccionarlos. ¡Hay un hombre que ya tiene 100 récords Guinness! China, India y Rusia retan a Occidente con una muestra de unidad Olvidar las lecciones de las guerras mundiales lleva al derrumbamiento del orden internacional Una investigación contradice la idea establecida del cruce de especies entre los humanos y los neandertales Corey Bellemore domina el Beer Mile World Classic por quinto año consecutivo El consumo de cerveza desciende Récords Guinness que tiene España
"It's Garry Shandling's Show" was a sitcom that aired on Showtime from 1986 to 1990 where Garry Shandling plays a fictionalized version of himself living in a suburban condo. The series was notable for breaking television conventions at the time, with Shandling directly addressing the audience, acknowledging that he was in a sitcom, and routinely mocking the artificial structures of television comedy. Its theme song even playfully narrated itself (“This is the theme to Garry's show…”), further underlining its meta, self-aware style. Reception was largely positive, with critics praising Shandling's wit, originality, and the show's willingness to lampoon television itself. The series helped establish Garry Shandling as a unique comedic voice, paving the way for his later, even more acclaimed HBO series The Larry Sanders Show. In retrospect, It's Garry Shandling's Show is remembered as a cult classic that pushed sitcom boundaries and inspired a new generation of TV comedy writers. Will the S1E1 boys enjoy a sitcom poking fun at sitcoms? Listen as they deep dive the show's first episode, "The Day Garry Moved In".

Wie immer beginnen wir unser Programm mit einem Rückblick auf einige aktuelle Ereignisse. Unser erstes Thema ist der Gipfel der Shanghaier Organisation für Zusammenarbeit, der die Einheit der Regierungschefs von China, Indien und Russland demonstrierte. In unserer zweiten Story sprechen wir über den 80. Jahrestag der Kapitulation Japans, die eine Ära der Bündnisse und des Freihandels einläutete. Die Erinnerungen an den Zweiten Weltkrieg verblassen – ebenso wie der Konsens darüber, wie eine Wiederholung vermieden werden kann. Danach sprechen wir über eine wissenschaftliche Studie, die neue Beweise für die Vermischung von Homo sapiens und Neandertalern liefert. Die Studie datiert den bisher angenommenen Zeitrahmen für diese Vermischung um etwa 100.000 Jahre zurück.
