After a decade of ideological conformity, is American theater ready to laugh at itself again? This week Meghan is joined by Broadway star, comedian, and producer PJ Adzima, founder of Stage Time NYC and producer of Slam Frank—a mind-melting new musical that reimagines The Diary of Anne Frank through "an intersectional, multi-ethnic, genderqueer, Afro-Latin hip-hop lens." (You read that right.) Slam Frank was conceived by composer and lyricist Andrew Fox, who was stunned and inspired by a Twitter thread in which someone asked, "Did Anne Frank ever examine her white privilege?" (You also read that right.) A play within a play about a progressive theater company twisting itself into knots trying to stay on the right side of history, the show has provoked both walkouts and rave reviews—including in The New York Times. (Again, you read that right.) PJ and Meghan discuss the transformation of the theater world over the past decade, the legacy of The Book of Mormon (in which he starred for many years), the "Dear White American Theater" manifesto, and why he believes great art cannot be created by checking ideological boxes. They also talk about what happens when artists prioritize pleasing everyone over having a point of view—and why live performance still matters in an era dominated by algorithms and social media. PJ was recently added as a guest at The Unspeakeasy's Small Gathering for Big Ideas retreat, Oct 19-21 in Kingston, NY. He joins fellow speakers John McWhorter and Lisa Marchiano. Spaces are filling fast. Info here. Slam Frank opens off-Broadway at New York's Orpheum Theater in September. Guest Bio: PJ Adzima starred on Broadway in The Book of Mormon and is the founder of Stage Time, an underground-style variety theater company and artist collective in New York City. He is also producer of Slam Frank.
In this episode, host Matt Rogers and co-host Dr. Brian McCraw talk with Shara Bumgarner, cofounder of Houston's Joy School, and architect Janann Pittman of Jackson & Ryan Architects about creating a K-8 school built for kids with learning differences. From the school's humble start with four students in 1997 to its thoughtfully designed campus today, Shara and Janann unpack how intentional design - down to door handles and bathroom stalls - can turn a school into a true second home. They dig into individualized instruction, the "it depends" philosophy, and why joy, not just remediation, should be at the heart of every learning space. Takeaways: No one-size-fits-all - Kids are grouped by specific learning needs, not grade level or diagnosis. Design follows philosophy - Spaces are built around flexibility and the school's culture, not just function. Details matter - Even door handles and toilet flushes were chosen to ease student anxiety. Safety enables learning - An anxious brain can't learn, so comfort comes first for kids and parents alike. Joy beats survival - Disco balls and dance parties aren't extras - they're core to helping kids truly thrive. About Shara Bumgarner: Shara Bumgarner co-founded The Joy School in 1997 and has been our Head of School since 2002. Shara's inspiration for starting The Joy School stemmed from witnessing bright students with learning differences and disabilities slip through the cracks in public school because of a lack of understanding of such students. Shara is committed to providing the most optimal, joyful environment for students and teachers with an emphasis on embracing individual differences. Starting The Joy School changed her life as an educator, and she hopes to have that same impact on each student, parent and teacher at the School. Outside of school, Shara focuses on her family, which includes her supportive husband and three daughters. Link to Shara's LinkedIn account - Link Link to The Joy School Website - Link About Janann Pittman, AIA: For over 35 years, since her first K-12 and higher education projects, Janann has been passionate about institutional and educational architecture that reinforces and expands communities, and impacts children of all ages. As a Principal with Jackson & Ryan Architects, Janann is licensed in multiple states, with education projects from Pennsylvania to Texas. Janann seeks to understand her unique clients and their communities, so her designs reflect them and serve them in highly personal ways. Janann comes from a family of educators and has served on numerous PTO boards and committees for her sons' schools, on the Rice University Alumni Board, and was a founding board member of Books Between Kids. While Janann loved her time at Rice University, she is most enthusiastic about her middle school years at Shoreham-Wading River Middle School. Named a Blue Ribbon School the first year the award was given, Janann loved the fabulous arts and community service programs, and the focus on interdisciplinary projects, in smaller neighborhood communities. And, the amazing school even had goats!

When we think of people that are fleeing conflict or being displaced by natural disasters, we rightly think about food, water and shelter as critical basic needs, but do we consider the psychological trauma that these populations have just undergone? How does mental health support factor into our relief responses? In this episode, we explore the critical role of mental health in humanitarian work with Weanne Estrada from the Adventist Relief and Development Agency. We discuss how mental health support can be integrated into disaster relief, refugee assistance, and community development, emphasizing culturally sensitive approaches and sustainable strategies.

Tom's thinking about who uses what space in the classroom whether it is gendered. Mike explains gender schema theory. Ross is reminded of the gender-coded ailes at stores like Target. Is this code replicated in classrooms? Joey reflects on her bias against toy dinosaurs and the role of gender in her dislike. Tom sees access to movement as the key to making spaces welcome for children on all genders.
In this Razor Wire episode, the hosts banter about workouts, weight loss, and summer beers before previewing a planned week off and a trip to Clarkdale/Flagstaff. They crack through rapid-fire “Anonymous Tell All” questions, then shift into politics and culture with a heated breakdown of a congressional exchange where Rep. Brandon Gill grills Smithsonian museum director Anthea Hartig about a “Mass Action Toolkit” that labels “objectivity” and “politeness” as elements of “white supremacy culture,” plus controversies like a Mickey Mouse minstrelsy reference and “Latina power” merchandise; they argue the Smithsonian's taxpayer funding and governance should be scrutinized. The show dives into AI risk after OpenAI reports an advanced agent escaped its sandbox and hacked Hugging Face to solve a hacking test, while Sam Altman's “singularity” claims spark suspicion of a cover-up. They discuss X (Twitter) frustrations: algorithm changes, Spaces glitches, and Grok usage limits. Science segments include a replication-crisis stat (0% of education papers replicated), DARPA's ECHO epigenetic “man-portable” detection concept, and a viral “strip club study” finding dancers earned far more tips during ovulation—especially compared to those on hormonal birth control—plus a surreal Surinam toad “farm report.” Beer talk continues with detailed tastings, and they close with a farewell to No Agenda's John C. Dvorak.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/razor-wire-news--5683729/support.www.razorwirenews.com

Thinking about the outdoor space in your school setting, how well is it serving students? How well is it serving yourself and your colleagues? When was the last time you reviewed the space, or asked students, staff and families for their views? In today's episode of The Research Files, we're joined by Dr Gweneth Leigh and Hannah Richardson from the University of Canberra. They've just released what they're calling a Schoolyard Greenprint – a series of free-to-access papers sharing their findings from almost 2 years of research into outdoor spaces in secondary school settings. In our conversation, you'll hear why it was important for them to focus on the secondary school setting specifically, what educators and young people told them about the outdoor spaces at their schools, and how these resources can support work in your own setting. Host: Dominique Beech Guests: Dr Gweneth Leigh & Hannah Richardson
In this episode of SPACES, Dimitrius explains that while not every project requires an architect, the right time to bring one in is often much earlier than most people think.He explores why architecture can be difficult to value upfront, why drawings are often misunderstood as a simple commodity, and how the real value of an architect is revealed through clarity, coordination, risk reduction, and a more guided process.Through examples involving wall removals, additions, ADUs, commercial spaces, and unpermitted work, this episode highlights the hidden complexity behind projects that may seem simple on the surface.In this episode:Why “I just need plans” can be a costly assumptionWhen cosmetic work becomes architectural complexityHow removing a wall can create structural and financial riskWhy additions and ADUs require more planning than many owners expectHow architects help make the process feel easier and less stressfulWhy clients often appreciate the value of architectural services most after the project is completeAs discussed:Before You Build Guidebook DownloadLYNESIf you enjoy our content, you can check out similar content from our fellow creators at Gābl Media.Spaces Podcast Spaces Podcast websiteLYNES // Gābl MediaAll rights reservedMentioned in this episode:Emerging
Yascha Mounk and Claude Steele discuss why diversity can produce anxiety—and how it differs from prejudice. Claude Steele is Professor Emeritus of Psychology at Stanford University. His latest book is Churn: The Absurd Abyss of Race in America. In this week's conversation, Yascha Mounk and Claude Steele discuss why diversity produces psychological tension even in the absence of explicit prejudice, whether American schools are truly as racially segregated today as they were in the 1950s, and how the fear of being stereotyped affects both minority and majority group members in integrated settings.

Intimacy vs. Isolation: Young Adults, Loneliness, and Real Community (with Christian Counselor Mike Kerstetter) Why are so many young adults feeling lonely, anxious, and burned out in the most “connected” generation ever? In this episode of the Young Adults Today Podcast, Josiah sits down with Christian counselor Mike Kerstetter to talk about the friendship crisis, the loss of third spaces, and the mental health warning lights that leaders and young adults can't afford to ignore. They unpack how intimacy vs. isolation shapes young adulthood, why AI can't replace real relationships, how pastors and leaders can spot burnout before the “engine blows,” and why slowing down might be the most spiritual thing you do this year. This conversation is packed with language you can use with your team, your church, and your small group.

Send us Fan MailIn S7 E3 is a full circle moment for me as I get to welcome Dr Andrew Davies to the show. Andrew is my podcast mentor and has been instrumental in helping me get started and as an ongoing source of support and wise council. I could not think of a better guest given this season's theme of communication in medicine. Andrew has been an intensive care medicine specialist for over three decades. He experienced a period of severe depletion and burnout mid-life, mid-career at a time of overcommitment to his research career. He describes the personal and professional growth that followed and now recounts this as an experience that reshaped his entire approach to medicine and life. Today he works at Peninsula University Hospital, where he is passionate about delivering compassionate, human-centred intensive care while actively supporting the wellbeing and development of fellow clinicians. Andrew hosts his own very successful podcast, Mastering Intensive Care which recently reached 100 episodes. Here he faciliates deeply reflective conversations with his colleagues in critical care. It's a fantastic series and I heave learned a lot from Andrew and his guests to date. In this episode, we talk about: • Listening as a skill and why it matters as much in medicine as anywhere else. • Our own experiences of mid-career and mid-life burnout, and re-learning how we approach self-care and regulation as an intentional practice and ever evolving skillset.• The core pillars of wellbeing -movement, food, sleep, stress regulation and connection. Mindfulness as a muscle and the skill of making and protecting space for what matters. • Individual versus systemic approaches to wellbeing in healthcare, and why both matter.• Running, ultra endurance feats and what these teach us about community, connection, and capacity for joy. “Don't ask what the world needs. Ask what makes you come alive. Because what the world needs is more people who have come alive.”— Howard ThurmanLinks:Andrew's podcast, Mastering Intensive Care: https://masteringintensivecare.libsyn.comUpcoming Community Events:Dr Dominique Lee — Book Launch, hosted by Dr Cheryl Martin.

In this episode of SPACES, architect Todd Ferking returns to the show to discuss the future of learning environments. He shares his decision to leave a national leadership role at DLR Group and launch Arcis Studio, a consultancy focused on helping school districts and design teams establish the vision, educational strategy, and planning foundations that lead to more meaningful learning environments.We revisit his work on Compton High School and Centennial High School, including the challenge of creating innovative educational facilities within California's exceptionally high construction costs. Todd also explains how program visibility, interdisciplinary connections, smaller learning communities, and stronger relationships between students and adults can influence learning and school safety.We also look ahead to the impact of artificial intelligence on education and the built environment. If students can increasingly receive personalized instruction through digital tools, should schools continue dedicating most of their space to traditional classrooms? Or could the schools of the future become application hubs—places where students gather to experiment, build, collaborate, socialize, and put knowledge into practice?In this episode:Why Todd launched Arcis Studio after 25 years with DLR GroupThe importance of establishing educational vision before design beginsLessons from the planning and design of Compton and Centennial High SchoolsDesigning flexible, visible, and interdisciplinary learning environmentsWhy California schools must accomplish more with less spaceCreating stronger connections between career technical education and core academicsApproaching school safety through relationships, scale, and layered securityHow AI could transform teaching, learning, and educational facilitiesReimagining schools as hubs for application, creation, and collaborationAs discussed:ARCIS StudioTodd Ferking on LinkedInSPACES episode 12: SchoolsLYNESIf you enjoy our content, you can check out similar content from our fellow creators at Gābl Media.Spaces Podcast Spaces Podcast websiteLYNES // Gābl MediaAll rights reservedMentioned in this episode:Gabl MembershipDesign VaultUnstruct

Small Town, Big Business: The Alexanders Bring Independent Primary Care Back to MarionHosts Jennifer Olson and Russell Williams welcome Dr. Jim Alexander and physician assistant Jennifer “Jen” Alexander to discuss opening Alexander Family Practice on West Main Street in downtown Marion, Illinois. They share their history practicing in the region since the early 2000s, a brief out-of-state hiatus, and their decision to return to independent medicine to restore one-on-one, continuity-based care and reduce corporate “layers” that frustrate patients. Jen describes learning the business side of healthcare, especially insurance credentialing, electronic systems, and billing, and credits community resources and a strong referral network built over decades. They highlight services including preventive care, laceration repair, dermatology procedures, joint injections, and Botox/fillers, note they see patients from newborns to a 109-year-old, introduce their social-media mascot “Mac Daddy,” and explain how to become a new patient and how to contact the office.Recorded at EThOs Small Business Incubator and Co-working Spaces in Marion, Illinois.https://members.ethosmarion.org/ SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCASTOur guest: https://www.facebook.com/p/Alexander-Family-Practice-61566590492602/

In this episode of SPACES, Dimitrius breaks down the important differences between architects, designers, and drafters — and why choosing the right type of help early can have a major impact on your budget, permitting, construction process, and overall project success.While each role can bring value, they are not interchangeable. The key question is not simply, “Who can draw this?”The better question is: What does this project actually require?In this episode:The difference between architects, designers, and draftersWhere designers can add significant valueWhat drafters typically provideWhy removing a wall can trigger structural, electrical, permitting, and budget considerationsHow project complexity should determine your teamWhy the cheapest path upfront is not always the least expensive path overallWhat questions to ask before hiring someone to prepare drawingsOnce you understand the scope, risks, systems, and approvals involved, it becomes much easier to assemble the right team.As discussed:Before You Build Guidebook DownloadLYNESIf you enjoy our content, you can check out similar content from our fellow creators at Gābl Media.Spaces Podcast Spaces Podcast websiteLYNES // Gābl MediaAll rights reservedMentioned in this episode:Gabl MembershipUnstructDesign Vault
The value of commercial spaces, like office buildings, are shrinking in the Twin Cities. That became apparent last week, when the city of Richfield shared that Best Buy's headquarters building dropped nearly 50 percent in value in its most recent assessment. But how was that office building's value decided? And how does it affect your tax bill? Josh Hoogland, assessor for Hennepin County, and Laura Russ, executive director for the Shenehon Center for Real Estate at the University of St. Thomas, joined MPR News guest host Catharine Richert to talk about commercial spaces and the impact their value has on cities.
Welcome to the very first episode of the General Witchfinders Book Club – a new spin-off from our regular British horror podcast, run in partnership with Teasel & Skylark, an independent bookshop in Dorchester.To accompany our real-life, face-to-face book club meet-ups, host Ross Cleaver invites a special guest co-host onto the show every two months to discuss our latest reading choice.On this inaugural episode, Ross welcomes author Ray Newman. Ray is the author of the novel The Grave Digger's Boy, as well as three exceptional collections of short stories: Municipal Gothic, Intervals of Darkness, and Thin Places in Hard Concrete. Together, they delve into Andrew Michael Hurley's acclaimed 2019 novel, Starve Acre.Starve Acre ‘An impeccable work of folk horror' – The Irish Times The worst thing possible has happened. Richard and Juliette Willoughby's son, Ewan, has died suddenly at the age of five. Convinced that the boy still lives on in some form, and desperate to make contact, Juliette seeks the help of the Beacons, a seemingly benevolent group of occultists. Richard, an art historian, tries to blot out the pain of his grief by turning his attention to the field opposite their house, Starve Acre. Patiently he digs in the barren soil looking for the roots of a legendary oak tree, but unearths something which ought to have remained buried. ‘I will confidently predict that no reader will guess where it's heading . . . Hurley's ability to create a world that's like ours in many ways and really not in many others is again on full display' – The Times How to Get InvolvedWe want to build a community around these books, both locally in Dorset and remotely with our podcast listeners and zine readers.Join us in Dorchester: Ross leads the in-person discussions at the King's Arms Hotel.

Tara, Caroline, and Allison discuss Tara's outdoor wedding in Maryland, where ticks prompted worries about Lyme disease; Alison shares experiences spotting ring rashes on her children and getting prompt antibiotic treatment. They pivot to “attention restoration theory” (ART), describing it as looking at things differently than intended and applying it to interior design by reorienting rooms, combining functions, and repurposing objects like placing a ginger jar on a patio to elevate an outdoor “second living room.” They note how client trust affects how far designers can push ideas. Tara applies the concept to personal styling, helping a client dress more age-appropriate while still feeling sexy, and they discuss using scarves and even men's ties in multiple ways to elevate outfits. Tara explains how to subscribe to her newsletter at tarawestfashion.com and mentions creating mood-board tips for dressing for sporting events like the World Cup, Wimbledon, and F1.

Fayetteville, Arkansas, is growing fast, and housing is getting harder to build. Clark Eckels and Nathan McCloskey of Fayetteville Strong talk about Rethink the Lot, a tactical urbanism pop-up that turned downtown parking spaces into small-scale housing people could walk through. The housing and parking debate can easily get stuck in zoning language, council meetings, and abstract trade-offs, but this project gave people a physical way to understand what those rules mean on the ground. Clark and Nathan explain what residents worry about, why parking minimums matter, and what changed when people stood inside a home where a car would usually sit.
