This week, we're busting the third Great Untruth: “Life is a battle between good people and evil people.” Teens will explore how tribal thinking, call-out culture, and enemy labeling are keeping them from developing empathy, leadership, and real relationships. I'll show how true strength comes from understanding others, not dividing the world into heroes and villains. (The Coddling of the American Mind, Chapter 3)Loved this audio?

Saying “I can't” sounds controlled. Saying “I won't” sounds unstoppable. In this episode, I explore the life-changing difference between the two, teaching teens how to own their values with power and confidence, whether it's about religious standards, digital discipline, or resisting peer pressure. This episode gives teens the tools to stop sounding limited and start standing tall.

Feelings are real, but that doesn't mean they're always right. This week, we're diving into the second Great Untruth: “Always trust your feelings.” Teens will learn how emotional reasoning traps them in false stories, and how to rewrite those stories using CBT tools. Through fun examples and practical techniques, they'll learn to recognize when their brain is lying and how to lead their emotions instead of being led by them.

In today's Daily Fix:In today's Donkey Kong Bananza-centric Nintendo Direct, the company has confirmed that Pauline is indeed in the game, and is playable via a two-player co-op mode. Interestingly, this is a younger version of Pauline than we've seen in 2017's Super Mario Odyssey (where she sang her now-famous "Jump Up, Superstar" as Mayor of New Donk City), or even her first appearance in the original Donkey Kong back in 1981. So does that make Bananza a prequel? Other details dropped in the Direct include returning Donkey Kong Country characters, DK's new powers, and more. In other news, Bungie's Marathon has been delayed again, this time to an unspecified date. Bungie is taking feedback from April's test to heart, while publisher Sony is eager to not make the same mistakes Concord did, which died a quick death within two weeks of its launch. And finally, Civil War director and 28 Years Later writer Alex Garland is on his seventh playthrough of FromSoftware's Elden Ring. Speaking with IGN, the filmmaker had some tips to share for the game, but unfortunately no updates on the A24-produced live-action movie he's making.

Best Ball Breakfast returns for 4 more drafts in the Best Ball Mania 6 contest on Underdog Fantasy. We begin with a solo draft, bring back the usual guests of Pat Kerrane and Mike Leone, then conclude with special guest Pat Mayo. Topics discussed: grinding our way out of a WR avalanche on a DHenry valuehound start, drafting a Sidekick-ass team with Kerrane, galaxy-braining opposing QBs in the same week 17 game with Leone, just drafting good players with Pat Mayo.⁠☕ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Become a "Best Ball Value Hound" Youtube member⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ to get access to Best Ball After Dark interviews.

This week, we're diving into the first of the Three Great Untruths: “What doesn't kill you makes you weaker.” Teens will learn why this belief is not only false—but actually harmful—and how believing they're fragile holds them back from growing stronger. I'll introduce the concept of being antifragile and challenge students to face discomfort head-on through a small “micro-challenge” that helps them build resilience, one rep at a time.

This week kicks off our summer book series of The Coddling of the American Mind with a deep dive into the fake-but-funny story of the Oracle of Koalemos and his very real influence on modern thinking. Teens will learn how three popular beliefs—“What doesn't kill you makes you weaker,” “Always trust your feelings,” and “Life is a battle between good people and evil people”—are shaping their mindset in sneaky, harmful ways. This summer, I'll show them how to spot these untruths, challenge them, and replace them with thoughts that lead to resilience, confidence, and growth. Loved this audio?

Another Shopify Editions release just dropped, and while the new features look flashy, not all of them are worth your time. In this episode, we're breaking down the updates that will actually move the needle for your store and which ones you can ignore without guilt. What We Cover: What Shopify's new Theme Blocks architecture really means (and if you need to upgrade) The power (and potential time-suck) of AI block generation inside the theme customizer Why the new campaign tracking tool might be the most useful update of all A behind-the-scenes look at multi-class discounts and the apps you'll need to make them work What to watch out for if you're thinking about using Shopify Collective for dropshipping How POS and Sidekick updates could impact in-person selling and customer service Key Takeaway: Just because Shopify adds it, doesn't mean you need to use it. Focus on the features that solve real problems in your business—and ignore the rest.

People love to judge and the internet makes it easy. But just because the mob says something doesn't mean it's true. In this episode, Joey Mascio unpacks why we're so quick to jump on the judgment train (whether online or in real life) and why compassion is your secret weapon against the angry crowd. With real-life examples and science-backed insights, teens will learn how to pause, question the story they're being fed, and become the kind of person people trust and respect.

From Ossie Davis and Ruby Dee on The Guiding Light to the first Black super-couple, Jesse and Angie on All My Children, Black soap actors have been on the canvas. According to an executive at CBS, Black women overindex as soap watchers, which has led to the first new daytime soap in decades. Beyond the Gates debuted with a core Black family in February 2025. It's an exciting time to be a Black soap fan. Even though there's been Black representation, Black writers and actors have often had to push to be more than sidekicks, according to soap writer Shannon Peace. “You see the faces; they're there,” Peace said. “But what are the storylines? Why do we still feel often like they're being backgrounded or there being support staff, to prop [up] other characters or other families? And when I say other characters or other families, I mean white characters or white families.” Peace said she doesn't see that problem in primetime television, but it still exists in daytime. “I feel in primetime mode, for the most part, they've done away with a Black sidekick, with a Black friend — that Black best friend — and you have Black characters in meaningful front-facing roles that are driving story. I don't see that in daytime.” You can listen to this podcast episode by following “Making: Stories Without End” on Apple, Spotify, Pocket Casts, NPR One or wherever you get your podcasts. Episodes drop every Tuesday for six weeks starting April 8.
