Podcasts about since doug

It’s been way too long since I first had Doug Hoyes, licensed insolvency trustee and co-founder of Hoyes Michalos, on the show! I’m talking years! He was first on the show to talk about consumer proposals and bankruptcies back in May 2016 for episode 49, and he’s back to talk about things to consider if you’re dealing with mounting debt during this pandemic. Not only that, but he is now also an author with his book Straight Talk on Your Money, which we also discuss in this episode. What I enjoyed most about his book is his very unique perspective on some of the money myths or traditional financial advice we’ve all heard over the years. Since Doug has worked with a number of clients over the course of his career, he has seen almost every situation possible first-hand. If you haven’t read it yet, I’d highly recommend it. There are some great sections on day-to-day money management and dealing with debt that I found so different in their take. For instance, a common piece of financial advice is to pay off either your most expensive debt or your smallest debt first. But maybe the best route to take is to pay off your callable or secured debts first since those debts are linked to assets that can be taken away.

Who are we? Like, literally. Who are these people doing this podcast? But also, like, existentially? How do we identify? In our first episode, we discuss how we handle ice breakers, the aspects of our identities that most resonate with us, and whatever random tangent our brains push us toward. Using Doug's current Twitter bio as an impromptu guide, we start off our conversation on identity by focusing on religion, sexuality, and mental health. This is a big topic, so we're planning for at least a part two coming next Tuesday. Stay tuned! [TRIGGER WARNINGS: bisexual/asexual erasure, religious indoctrination, sexual abuse, purity culture, rape, depression, mental illness] Show Notes Minute 01: We discuss icebreakers and how they answer the dreaded 'tell me about yourself' prompt. Doug references an scene from the TV show Crazy Ex-Girlfriend Season 2 Episode 4. He's a huge fan of the show and will likely reference it again, so here's the entire CXG song list in chronological order--if you want to do some homework.  Minute 09: We continue by discussing the difference between the 'tell me about yourself' question and the 'tell me who you are' question. Which aspects of our identities do we claim as us? Since Doug uses several such identifiers in his current Twitter bio, we decide to use it as a guide for the remainder of the discussion. One part of his current bio worth calling out is the recommendation to follow @kaitlincurtice and buy her new book. Kaitlin is an indigenous speaker, writer, and poet who champions decolonization from a faith-based perspective. Doug is a huge supporter! Minute 13: Doug's current Twitter bio begins with the phrase, "Liberation is my theology." We start unpacking our identities by talking about religion. Doug attempts to give a white guy explainer for Vanessa on what liberation theology is, including lowkey bragging about a tweet he is embarrassingly proud of. Vanessa expresses the difficulty she has in seeing religion as a framework for good (both Vanessa and Doug--but especially Doug--have roots in Evangelical Christianity). We continue talking for several minutes about the intersection of religion, belief systems, and ethics. Doug's spirituality is entirely about his ethical convictions and he doesn't really believe in any thing supernatural at all--even though he identifies as a Christian. Vanessa identifies more with pagan spirituality, but does tend to believe in--as Doug would describe it--"woowoo" stuff. Minute 22: We move on to the next part of Doug's Twitter bio, "aro/ace." In terms of sexual orientation, Doug identifies as aromantic and asexual, while Vanessa identifies as bisexual. We both express surprise and excitement that it turns out we're both part of the "rainbow club." We talk about gatekeeping in the queer community, and how each of our respective orientations are often excluded for various reasons. We touch on rape/sexual abuse and the impact it may or may not have on sexual orientation. Finally, we talk about purity culture and its relationship to the development (or lack thereof) of sexual attraction. "The people who fought to build this community and bring this community out of the darkness did not do so so that we could all be assholes to each other." - Vanessa [CLICK TO TWEET] "You can still accept who you are regardless of how you came to be that way." - Doug [CLICK TO TWEET] Minute 35: The last identifier we cover centers around the concept of neurodiversity. One of Doug's hashtags is #NeurodiverseSquad (founded by artist Dani Donovan--another amazing human Doug supports), an online community Doug participates in, and Vanessa wonders if it's a community she'd be welcome in. What qualifies as "neurodivergent," and what qualifies as "mental illness?" Doug has ADHD, which is generally considered to be part of that club. Vanessa has BPD, and that doesn't get as much attention (if any) in the neurodivergent space. Vanessa and Doug both experience depression--does that belong under the umbrella of "neurodivergent?" Minute 44: After deciding to wrap the episode up and save the rest for part two, we go on to discuss the results of our first online personality quiz--a segment we plan on making part of the show. For our first quiz, Vanessa picked a BuzzFeed Quiz in which your personality is summed up in combination of one character from The Office and one character from Parks and Rec (both shows Vanessa and Doug love). It turns out that Vanessa is a combination of Erin Hannon and Chris Traeger, while Doug is a combination of Dwight Schrute and April Ludgate. FYI, Doug mentions a psychological assessment he took a while back showing which fictional characters most correspond to your personality. You can find that assessment here. This episode was recorded on May 6, 2020. Happy Birthday to our nephew RJ! 

Since Doug forgot to add this audio to Episode 92, we give you a bonus episode with the Cup Series rookies. Custer and Reddick both talk about adjusting to the momentum-driven Cup cars. Reddick also talks about the layout of his team, fatherhood, and his aggressive style - and he addresses if there is anything left of his scrap with Custer last year. They each also talk about the difficulties to and fro on the west coast swing.

Hey, frans! Jamie here. Doug couldn’t join me today (except for a quick intro), so you get to hear from just me in this episode! I might have been just a little jealous that Doug got to do his very own Q&A episodes, so it’s my turn today. Since Doug wasn’t able to be here anyway, it was perfect timing for this episode. I put out an invitation for questions on Instagram, and got plenty of responses that I’m excited to address today, so let’s dive right in!First up, I’ll talk about whether I’m cleared to start trying for another baby yet. (Not quite, but we’re getting closer.) I’ll also chat about sleep training and whether we ever co-slept with Gracie. We didn’t co-sleep with her, as I’ll explain in more depth, and getting her to sleep was a lot of work. She had to be rocked until she fell asleep, and then even longer to make sure she was in a deep sleep before we could put her down.Our next question is about my last name, and whether I legally changed it to match Doug’s or kept my maiden name. (Curious about the answer? You’ll have to tune into the episode!) I’ll chat about how many words Gracie can say, whether we enjoy or feel disrupted when fans recognize us in public and say hi, how to stay positive when you see other people around you getting pregnant and much more. In today’s Q&A episode, I’ll go from the fun and lighthearted to the deeply personal, and answer as many of your questions as I can! You know how devoted I am to being honest and transparent with you, and this episode is a great opportunity for that.In This Episode:[00:58] - Doug welcomes listeners to the show, and explains that this is another Q&A episode, featuring Jamie this time.[02:32] - Today’s shoutout goes to an iTunes listener who left a review.

I love Colorado! I snowboarded there many years ago (too many actually) and we also visited it last summer. Since Doug was born and spent almost all of his life in this beautiful state (he lives and works in Denver), I thought it would be a great idea to have him help me learn more about the state. We talked about job market in Denver, best mountains for skiing and snowboarding, cute resort towns, breweries and potentially the biggest liquor store in the world – Tipsy’s. Everything about Doug can be found at DenverUXer.com and on Twitter @DougCollinsUX. You can find everything about me at vitalik.co. Thank you so much for tuning in!

Because we have a scheduling conflict for our usual weekly podcast day (that's Tuesdays for those of you not in the know), we got together for an early edition of this week's show. Doug, Amanda, Katie, and Sorg are on air for AwesomeCast 340. This week we're talking about awesome things in technology, including: Katie gets to go to tradeshows for work. She's sharing some doodads as her Awesome Thing of the Week this week. Since Doug is playing with Katie's toys, he's sharing his Awesome Thing of the Week, Facebook Blueprint. Apparently Facebook certification tests are akin to clearance testing - lots of procedure and protocol. We're talking Facebook ads and marketing. Mobile apps aren't as friendly for marketing. Amanda is talking Instagram posting via Facebook for businesses. Moving to Amanda's Awesome Thing of the Week - Google Jamboard is due out in May. Sorg's Awesome Thing of the Week is an Atomos digital recording adapter for his video camera. Thanks to Brandon for letting us know about the Nintendo Switch controller being able to use for NES Classic. Netflix, Hulu and other video services will also be available on Nintendo Switch. Speaking of Nintendo Switch, Katie is sharing how U-Porn has had a drop in traffic thanks to the console. Related: Zelda porn searches have gone up. And, we've moved to Pokemon GO divorces as a topic of conversation. Brandon is hitting the mark with his shared content this week. Pokemon GO hints at smart glasses options. Katie is talking Hugging Face and sassy AI. Is Hugging Face the new Tamagotchi? We're questioning who owns emoticons to provide rights for a movie. Apis Cor did a 3D printed house in 24 hours and we're impressed. After the show remember to: Eat at Slice on Broadway (@Pgh_Slice) if you are in the Pittsburgh area! It is Awesome! (sliceonbroadway.com) Follow these awesome people on Twitter: Mike Sorg (@Sorgatron), Katie Dudas (@Kdudders), Doug Derda (@douglasderda) and Amanda Narcisi (@alnarcisi).
