Melissa Forman talks with Jan The Traffic Man about St. Baldricks.
Hi Friends,Happy Thanksgiving! For this special episode we are focusing on gratitude, giving back, and using your superpowers to make a difference.Joining me is my friend, Tim Kenny, founder of The St. Baldrick's Foundation-an organization that is near and dear to my heart.If you have been around our show for more than a hot minute, you have probably heard me talk about the work we do to raise awareness and funding for pediatric cancer research. My IRL community has been impacted by the loss of several kids to various types of cancers-and having a front row seat to how it impacts a family alters the way in which you see the world.At the time of this recording, The St. Baldrick's Foundation has donated over 465 million dollars to pediatric cancer research, making them the leading non-profit organization dedicated to pediatric cancer research. They are “the behind the scenes” heroes responsible for funding grants to researchers in institutions including St. Jude's, Dana Farber, and Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (to name a few).I invited Tim on the show to share his personal story of growing up on a farm in Ireland, the oldest of 6 kids, coming to the US with $200 in his pocket, and building a life here (the true American Dream).During our conversation, Tim shares: The origin story of St. Baldrick's, and how a brainstorm with some buddies over a couple of beers changed his lifeHow St. Baldrick's got its name (spoiler alert: it's not a real saint!)Stories about how kids and adults of all ages have been impacted by the work they do.In a season where many of us are stressed and overwhelmed, this episode focuses on hitting pause on your to-do list and pressing play on how small gestures can make a difference in someone's life.After listening to this episode, my hope is that you feel inspired to share it with your friends, show gratitude for the people in your life who matter, and continue using your superpowers to make the world a better place.I am grateful for all of you.XOXO-LaurieP.S.

Heather Jones organizer for St. Baldrick’s talks about all the upcoming events including the Downtown Shavedown. You can be a hero for kids with cancer!…
When Ginger Hahn, the founder of Ginger Elizabeth Chocolates' daughter was only 6 days old she had an intestinal bypass. According to Ginger, "It was the worst 2 weeks of my life in that hospital. Walking to the cafeteria every day I would walk past the oncology pediatrics wing at Sutter Sacramento. I was grateful to not be on that wing with my baby but so many kids were. I want to do this to give back to those kids who give so much hope and inspiration to others while fighting this terrible disease."-So Ginger is shaving her head with St. Baldrick's to raise money and help conquer kids' cancers and she needs your help! Every 2 minutes a child is diagnosed with cancer worldwide, and 1 in 5 of those in the U.S. will not survive. Ginger said that she refuses to accept this reality, so she's decided to fundraise for lifesaving research to find cures and better treatments for kids. You can help Ginger by donating on her behalf to St. Baldricks here https://www.stbaldricks.org/donate/participant/1058309/2020?amount=50&donation_type=donate_once-In this episode, Ginger talks about balancing a growing business in her 20’s with the demands of motherhood, and her battles with severe postpartum depression, and, at times, crippling anxiety. But Ginger never gave up and found herself needing to open up to others, and learn how to be vulnerable, and seek help, something that didn’t come naturally to a driven, entrepreneur.

The Andreas invite our good friend and Andrea Smith's cousin Jen Randoll to discuss, Ally's baby shower, Nate's fifth birthday and Andrea Speck's trip to the plastic surgeon. The ladies beg Jen's sister Ashlin who is moving to Florida to send us weekly stories from Florida! Safe travels but when you get there... inbox us the craziness! Jen and Andrea Speck drop a secret they are low key, tv BFF's and discuss some of our favorite tv shows. Andrea Smith's homework assignment is to watch Game of Thrones - Winter Is Coming! Jen discusses being a mother of three. Her son Matty's ADHD diagnosis, love of math and trains. Ellie has the face of an angel and the attitude of a rock star - just the way we like our ladies. The ladies talk in depth about Jen's daughter Riley with the infectious smile and attitude that everything was "the best ever." They discussed her diagnosis with Leukemia, treatments, and unfortunately when she passed away. They discussed how 4% of the federal funding for cancer research goes toward Pediatric Cancer research and some other alarming facts that it's 2019 and we haven't developed any new treatments, therapy or medications to ease these kids or their survival rate. If you need something to be angry about - here's damn good place to start.Thank you so much Jen for coming on and sharing your story and your kids with us. We will not allow any of these kids to be forgotten. We #GoGold in September and we #StayGoldAllYear. If you are looking to donate to an organization that focuses solely on research, may we suggest St. Baldricks? We need research and new therapies. Our kids deserve better.

Casie (pronounced KC) Shimanski and I met a couple of years at an event in Florida and have stayed in touch online since. We've crossed paths in Florida many times missing each other by a few hours here and there or realizing after, "Hey, you were there?" In December last year we actually came face to face at Social Fresh that was held at Full Sail University. Casie is part of the Cisco Systems family working with the team dedicated to telling Cisco’s employees story through social media, specifically, Instagram, Twitter and . Casie comes from a family of police and has first responder blood also having ties to the fire department as well. Like anyone with that kind of bloodline, you know giving and caring are two traits that come naturally to her. Her Dad was with the Port Authority PD for NY/NJ for 21 years. He worked the '93 WTC Bombing & lost many friends in 9/11 as well. He has been a "founding" member of Team Live Out Loud (dedicated to Casie’s sister, Kellie's Memory). He’s gone bald for St. Baldricks’s many times and this year will be an extra special year as Casie is going bald for St. Baldrick’s as well…. And this is a great story. Casie is getting married on March 22, 2018 and just two days later she is shaving her head for St. Baldrick’s! Now that’s commitment to a cause and you’ll understand that more when you listen to Casie tell the story how here involvement on a personal level came to be. The St. Baldrick’s Foundation doesn't just look to help any cancer...it is targeting child cancer. Kids that get cancer aren't contracting lifestyle cancer...they are just getting a raw deal on life and could use research dollars and money to help fund treatments specific to their unique needs. Every day 43 children will be diagnosed with cancer and 1 in 5 will not win the battle. Please consider donating to Casie. Her direct link for her fundraising efforts is: https://www.stbaldricks.org/participants/getmarriedgobald This is a great video on Children's Cancer and the hardcore mission of St Baldrick's http://youtu.be/oBMd_CKEyIY Please reach out to Casie and say, “Hi” and wish her the best for her upcoming wedding and her efforts to help out the fight against childhood cancer.

Jim dons his riot gear and pushes back the rundown. The guys get local and talk about Chicago's fast and furious heat wave and the not so fast and annoyingly furious protesters at the Chicago NATO Summit. Jim gives us another spoiler free review of the ever so creepy Jonny Depp in Dark Shadows. The topic switches over to girls who grow up on camera and the men who covet them just a little too early (like Creepy Uncle Jim). Will Smith was caught on tape bitch slapping a celebrity news reporter in Russia recently. Was it a love tap or a premeditated Fresh Prince of "Bitch, I'll Split Your Wig"? Details in the story lead to a short discussion on gay marriage and FUH's thoughts on President Obama's recent statement on the topic. The future of SNL is brought up quickly before Jim gets to talk about the recent backstage firing on his favorite television show, NBC's Community. Bill believes that the internet is the new bastion for television shows that are put out to pasture. Thirty minutes of (previously exclusive) audio from The Water Cooler podcast's 12 hour podcast marathon for St. Baldrick's charity is unearthed and shared with the File Under Horrible audience for the first time in it's entirety to close out the show!

Assume the position, it's time for your weekly FUHcast! Jim runs through the rundown to get away from Bill and his coughing plague of death. Bill gets meta as he plugs podcasts on a podcast. FUH gets fashionable after playing some listener voicemail. Bill doesn't believe Microsoft's changes to Windows with 8 are a big deal. Google is about to get Skynet all up in your face. The Terminator and Rambo walk into a hospital......you'll have to listen for the punch line to that one. Jim delights the masses with some more movie talk!
