Part 1 of 4 – This one was heavy on the feels, light on the bullshit, diving deep into the shit that matters. We kicked off with a punch to the gut - an emotional video tribute for our baseball team's 20th anniversary, mourning the loss of someone who was like family. We didn't shy away from the tough stuff. Talked about the support we crave when life shits on us, and the unexpected calls that bring back memories you thought you'd buried. We dug into family legacies, sharing stories about ancestors we never met but whose wild-ass traits we've inherited. But hey, we balanced it with some lighter shit - like the beauty of a fucking sunrise, the pride in providing for your kids, and the unbreakable bond of friends. We tackled parenting, the art of talking to your kids without going full dictator, and the economic realities that sometimes make you feel like a failure. This episode? It's raw, real, and packs a punch. If you want something that'll make you laugh, cry, and think, dive deeper than usual into this one.

Indigenous cultures often have a very different view of raising children who receive diagnoses of autism or other neurodivergent conditions. These differences impact how families and children are supported, but also may result in difficulties when families need to interface with non-indigenous cultural professionals and systems to acquire services that may be helpful. Barry and Dave discuss these issues with Grant Bruno and Otilia Johnson, two parent-professionals from indigenous cultures in Canada and the US. A particular emphasis in the discussion is on what non-indigenous professionals can do to better serve these communities, as well as what can be learned from indigenous values and beliefs about raising children.Learn more on our websiteSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
