Teen, Joseph Koenig, Convicted of Murder For Dropping Boulders Off Busy Overpass Jurors in Jefferson County needed barely two hours Friday morning to convict Joseph Koenig of first-degree murder for hurling a landscaping rock through the windshield of Alexa Bartell's moving car, killing the 20-year-old as she drove near Arvada in April 2023. Deliberations began late Thursday and resumed at 9 a.m.; by 10:45, the panel had returned guilty verdicts on every one of the 19 counts Koenig faced. Koenig, now 19, stood accused not only of Bartell's murder but of unleashing a late-night rock-throwing spree that terrorized motorists across northwest metro Denver. Prosecutors charged him with nine counts of attempted first-degree murder for the other cars struck, three counts of second-degree assault, and six counts of attempted second-degree assault. While the jury found Koenig guilty on each allegation, several counts were reduced under Colorado law. Last week jurors heard from nearly two dozen witnesses, including victims who recalled the sudden shatter of glass and the panic of losing control at highway speed. The most damning testimony came from Koenig's two friends—Nicholas “Mitch” Karol-Chik and Zachary Kwak—who took plea deals and told the jury Koenig threw the fatal rock. The defense pounced on Karol-Chik's earlier statement to police suggesting Kwak hurled the final stone, but both men insisted on the stand that Koenig was responsible for Bartell's death. Koenig himself never testified. Instead, defense lawyers called Laurence Steinberg, a Temple University adolescent-brain researcher, to argue that impulsivity and Koenig's ADHD lessened his culpability. Deputy District Attorney Katharine Decker countered in a pointed cross-examination, pressing Steinberg to acknowledge that teenagers can still foresee lethal consequences. Koenig was a high school senior at the time of the incident. Originally scheduled for trial last summer, the case was postponed for a court-ordered mental-health evaluation after Koenig's attorneys cited an ADHD diagnosis and borderline personality disorder. Closing arguments Thursday distilled the stakes: prosecutors said Koenig acted “knowingly and intentionally,” while defense attorney Martin Stuart asked jurors to convict only of reckless manslaughter—calling his client “guilty of a crime, but not murder.” Evidence showed that Koenig, Karol-Chik, and Kwak circled back to the crash scene on April 19, 2023, photographing Bartell's disabled Chevy Spark instead of checking on her or dialing 911. That callous post-attack behavior, prosecutors argued, underscored Koenig's indifference to human life. After the verdict, Bartell's mother, Kelly, stood outside the courthouse clutching a framed photo of her daughter. “These have been the hardest two years of our lives, but we got justice today,” she said through tears. “It doesn't bring Alexa back, and that's horrible. But we hope no family ever has to live this nightmare again.” District Court Judge Mark Randall set Koenig's sentencing for June 3 at 8:30 a.m. Victims and relatives will be allowed to address the court before penalties are imposed; a first-degree murder conviction in Colorado carries an automatic life sentence with the possibility of parole after 40 years. Karol-Chik and Kwak, who pleaded guilty last year to lesser charges—including second-degree murder and multiple counts of attempted assault—are scheduled to learn their fates on May 1 and May 2, respectively Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

On this episode of The Founder's Sandbox, Brenda speaks with Alexa Steinberg – a corporate and transactional attorney for middle-market companies and entrepreneurs. Acting as outside general counsel, Alexa represents privately held companies in a wide range of general corporate and transactional matters, including entity formation, structuring, and commercial transactions. With a focus on mergers and acquisitions, she offers clients guidance on structuring deals and ensuring compliance with relevant laws and regulations. Brenda and Alexa discuss her journey from working at a small, all-female law firm to joining a full-service firm to better support her clients. Alexa shares how her parents—both deeply involved in business and community service—shaped her values around financial literacy, record-keeping, and the importance of building generational wealth. They speak about family-owned businesses and best practices in family governance, such as setting clear roles, regular meetings, and involving independent board members. Alexa also emphasizes the importance of building trust with clients and maintaining a purpose-driven, relational legal practice. Brenda and Alexa explore what "purpose-driven," "resilience," and "scalable" mean within the context of business and legal practice. You can find out more about Alexa at: https://www.greenbergglusker.com/alexa-steinberg/ episode transcript: 00:04 Hi, I'm pleased to announce something very special to me, a new subscription-based service through Next Act Advisors that allows members exclusive access to personal industry insights and bespoke 00:32 corporate governance knowledge.

Thank you. 01:18 Welcome back to the Founders Sandbox. I am Brenda McCabe, your host of this monthly podcast where I have guests that are either founders, professional service providers, corporate board directors that actually share a mission with me, which is bringing change to the world through great corporate governance, but building resilient, scalable and purpose-driven companies. On a monthly basis, my guests are going to tell their origin stories and kind of how I've met them. 01:48 through the work they do. And I've recreated a fun sandbox environment in which we do storytelling. And ultimately we will touch upon resilience, purpose-driven and scalable or sustainable growth in the businesses that they are working in or owners of. 02:17 l I'm absolutely delighted to have as my guest today, Alexa Steinberg, Alexa is counsel at Greenberg, Glasgow. And before that, she was actually practicing in a smaller law firm and where her story today is going to kind of have some some 02:47 lessons learned on why she chose to leave the firm and move into Greenberg, the Greenberg Lasker. But more importantly, you and I go back a couple years. are part of an informal group of women. We call ourselves Women and Wealth. We meet periodically to really refer business to each other for those women business owners that 03:16 are seeking perhaps an exit in the next three to five years. And through our skillset, some of us are CPAs, strategy advisors, yourself as counsel. A lot of these businesses are family owned. And so you and I and another, know, seven other ladies get to meet each other over lunch and discuss these opportunities. And we're all very passionate about helping women business owners. Aren't we, 03:44 We are Brenda, thank you so much for having me on the Founder's Sandbox. I am an avid listener, so I'm very excited that I get to be a guest. Thank you, thank you. you know, we've had many, conversations, obviously, but I wanted for my listeners to really dive into what you do today, right? Which is really purpose. 04:12 driven and it's preserving family wealth, right? And I know that you actually come from a background where your father owned his business. So tell us a bit, us down memory lane and that first story that you told me. Well, you know, growing up, I watched both of my parents. My mother was a career woman. My father, a financial planner. 04:38 running his own book. My mother, a buyer and then in fashion and then into real estate. I watched they were both very involved in the community. My mother sat on the Studio City Council, the Neighborhood Council. She was on many boards involved with the temple. My father as well sat on many boards involved with the 05:07 Boys and Girls Club, and involved with the Jewish Federation. So I watched as my parents really instilled the importance of being involved in community, being involved in family, being involved in the greater good and in purposeful and meaningful organizations. And I... 05:35 sort of learned a lot about that watching them both in their respective arenas being involved. And you know, they've, they've truly inspired me, not only in my career path, but in how I treat my clients in the arenas that I've become involved in. There's a specific story that I think I've shared with you, Brenda, about my father and how he sort of taught me 06:05 the value of wealth, the value of money, because as his career, that was what he did. He focused mainly on planning for retirement and financially setting yourself up and your family up to have generational wealth and what that looked like and how you could prepare for it when you were 10, 15, 20, 25 years old, preparing for family, preparing for children. 06:35 So when I turned 16, my father went into our QuickBooks. We had a family QuickBooks. Oh, wow. That was before it was actually. It was probably a hard disk, right? Not even on the internet. Oh, yeah. It was like a hard disk. had a full set up, massive computers, the whole thing, in our family office. And he went into his QuickBooks. And he took. 07:03 what he spent on me in a year. And he divided it by 12. And this included insurance. Mind you, I just turned 16. So my car insurance, my car lease, medical, entertainment, my tennis lessons, all of these things that were spent on me, what it cost for me to function. Children are expensive, you know. 07:32 I was very expensive because I will tell you that check was large that he cut me every month. And he laid out, these are the things that are monthly expenses for you that you need to pay with this money. And the rest you can use on entertainment, gifts, shopping, which I loved. But I had to learn to balance my checkbook and balance 08:01 this amount of money, because I wasn't able to get any more until the next month. And that really taught me how that money was never something that was readily expendable to me. even if I went to Starbucks and I bought a drink with my father's credit card, he'd ask me for the receipt. He'd want to know where the receipt was, always. 08:28 I was very meticulous in his record keeping which I am now very much meticulous in my record keeping and I enforce with my clients and make sure that record keeping is so important in your business as well. You know and so when I when I graduated high school my father said to me okay the checks are done. And you need to go get a job in college. 08:56 And what I will do is I will subsidize the paycheck that you bring home. So if you bring home $600, I will pay you 50 cents on the dollar for what you bring home, but only up to $300. So I could get a max of $300 every paycheck that he would subsidize. And then that was how I had money to live and to function. my parents, I was lucky enough that my parents would pay for my college. 09:24 in my housing, in my dorms, but it was still really teaching me the value of money. And my father required that a certain portion of those funds get put away in savings and invested. And he would tell me how to do that. And he would guide me. because my father was a financial planner, he would call me like a client and say, listen, 09:53 You're 70 % stocks, 30 % cash. I think you need to swap it. Let's talk about what that means. And of course, I'm like, you're my dad. Just do it. Why are we having this conversation? But it was so valuable because he wanted me to understand what he was doing and why he was doing it and how it really functioned. that I've also taken into how I guide and advise my clients. 10:22 I don't just do for them. understand, I want them to understand how we're doing it, why we're doing it, what the alternatives are and what it means if we do it this way or that way. You know, a lot of my discussions with my clients are about strategy and about structure and so they can make an informed decision. You know, I think that that's extremely important, especially in a family business. Working with your family is tough. So, 10:52 The way that you can make it that much easier is communication and understanding and knowledge. And I try to arm my clients with that. And that's something that my father really taught me. my mother as well, because my father managed our money and my mother would bring it home and hand my father a check and be like, here, I don't know what you do with it, but do something with it. 11:21 She also would, he would say, hold on a second. Like, I know you just sold a house and here's your commission check, but let me show you what we do with this and how we create generational wealth and how we invest it and what the best benefit for these funds are and how to use debt to our advantage. Um, you know, and that's all of these things were such a value add that I 11:51 I obtained understanding about and that I've now turned this value add to my clients and how they run their business. I'm not a financial advisor, I'm not a tax attorney. These are just really sort of general understandings and general guidance points for my clients to go out and have knowledgeable conversations with the appropriate 12:21 guidance, appropriate people, and the appropriate service providers that are going to help them accomplish those things. really, this is very loaded, but I really like the methods your father used. very, well, first of all, intentional and bespoke. And that's really, and he did communicate to your mother, right? To instill also in her an understanding 12:52 of although she's bringing the check home because many, many women business owners today oftentimes do not own a majority of their companies. Right. And that is a shocking statistic that I run into time and time again that women actually don't know how much equity they have in their own business. Right. So just the informing and, and you've translated that bespoke, you know, communicating 13:22 helping your clients understand, pardon me, and providing options as well as access to other professional service providers as your own bespoke offering to your clients. But it wasn't always like, yeah, go. That's sort of the benefit of the group that you and I met in and all of the networking opportunities that I've been involved in. Of course, networking is about building 13:51 um, your brand and your book and, um, but a majority of it and the real value there is meeting and learning and understanding, um, and really coming to know people that can help your clients where you can't, um, and having trustworthy referral sources to do that, because I'm not just going to tell my client, Oh, 14:18 this individual can help you with wealth management, call them without knowing how this person functions, without knowing how they run their clientele, how they do business. Those are really important things and to have trustworthy referral sources is really important. And that's sort of what our group is all about. That's right. And it wasn't always like this. 14:46 Right, you graduated from law school and started with a small, it was a, I think a female-led law firm. all female attorneys. Yeah, so what was your, this is right out of college, what were you doing and what then informed your decision at a very tender age to leave? So right out of law school, 15:17 had worked my way through law school. I worked in family law for about five or six years. during the day, I was at a law firm. And in the evening, I took classes from 5 to 10 PM, four days a week for four years. took me four years to get through law school. And when I graduated, unfortunately, I wasn't afforded 15:47 All of the opportunities in law school that most law students take advantage of, externships, fellowships, things like that, because I was working my way through. I had already been financially independent and I wanted to stay that way. So I didn't want to quit my job to go to school. I wanted to be able to do it all. 16:15 So as a result, I really didn't have the summer clerkships that turn into job offers. And I was a little lost because I had taken the bar exam and I was like, OK, I'm not an attorney yet. But in three months, if I pass the bar exam, I could be. Am I applying for law clerk positions? Am I applying for associate positions? Like, know, I was so lost. And I went on Craigslist. Oh my goodness. 16:44 And I found law firms that were hiring because I figured those people, you know, they're they're looking to hire somebody now, which is what I'm looking for. and hopefully those people, you know, will transition me into an associate role. If I pass the bar exam in a few months. And that was that was like my first sort of in. And I joined a very boutique law firm in West Hollywood. It was 17:13 By the time I left, we were three female attorneys. were all female for my entire tenure there. I was there for six and a half years. And it was in late 2019, early 2020 that I really decided I wanted more for my career and for my book of business. And I wanted to be able to provide my clients with a well-rounded 17:43 advice and guidance. I can't do it all, nor should I. I'm pretty sure my malpractice of insurance wouldn't like that. Not at all. But more and more, had clients that were asking me to help with litigation matters or employment matters. And those are arenas that I know just enough about to be dangerous. But I'm not going to run a full litigation. 18:13 I can't willfully and knowledgeably advise on employment matters. You know, especially to do justice by my client, do well by them. I'd like to be able to have somebody for them that they can speak to and trust and get the advice and counsel that they need. And that really stemmed my yearning to branch out. 18:42 and go to a firm where I had all of those resources at my fingertips. I wanted more for my career, but my biggest drive was I wanted more for my clients. I wanted really to be able to provide them with well-rounded, multidisciplinary counsel. And so I sought out full-service law firms. 19:11 I found my home at Greenberg Gloucester, which is a fantastic place to be. I'm very happy there and everybody is so fantastic and everybody is so good at what they do. We've got employment and tax and IP and litigation, environmental, entertainment, you name it. And it's been such a benefit not only to my career, 19:41 to my clients, but I've learned so much. And is it true? How would you characterize the typical clients without revealing, you know, confidential matters? Is it also a firm that's very oriented towards family owned businesses? Would you say that? Yeah, I would. You know, I'm a counsel in the corporate and tax department. 20:08 And you we don't have a ton of institutional clients. A lot of our clients are family owned businesses, mostly held entities, you know, which I love on a daily basis. I am working with two sisters that own a business together or a multi-generational company where, you know, senior is working with G2 and G3 or 20:37 were actually this morning I was working on assigning interests and reorganizing and restructuring a bunch of entities that own a bunch of real estate for clients. And that's also the kind of benefit that I get that I get to be pulled into real estate matters with my corporate expertise to help a family office restructure their ownership. 21:04 You know, and I love that stuff. We're extremely, the way that Greenberg provides advice and counsel is on a very personal level. The way that the firm and myself, especially, we're a lifestyle firm. You know, we understand that attorneys are people outside of 21:33 the walls of the office and that we all have lives. And we, you know, I translate that to my clients. My clients have lives. My clients have other things going on than their business. And especially when you deal with family offices and family businesses, there's a whole different dynamic of family interaction. Yes. You know, and, and I have now experienced that not only with my clients and sometimes I become 22:03 therapist in that regard, although I'm a very expensive therapist. I'm sure there people that are less per hour. But I'm experiencing it firsthand because my husband has his own business with his brother and I have become advice and counsel for them as well. And so I'm seeing it sort of from a different angle too, but I think that my clients truly appreciate 22:32 that when I talk to them, I talk to them as a person. It's not just as a business owner. It's not just as I'm guiding you with this legal advice. It has to make sense. And it has to be actually applicable. And sometimes what my advice and guidance would be in sort of this like legal box is not the best. 23:00 for my client and how their business is operating. And you've got to be sort of fluid with that. And bespoke. Yeah, so it's really beyond, it's not a transactional relationship. It is a trustworthy relationship based on the values of the family businesses that and their goals in preserving wealth or continuing to generate family wealth. Yeah, absolutely. This is a great segue because you know, I also 23:29 passionate and have often guests that are sitting on corporate boards. As counsel, have you observed any best practices and family governance structure? You talk about G1, G2, G3, Have you observed any best practices? We don't have to talk about bad practices, right? But any best practices that you would like to share here? Yeah, you know, I think that I've observed that 23:59 Some of the most effective family governance structures prioritize clear communication, well-defined roles, professionalized decision-making. I use this in a very loose sense of the word, but you could establish a family constitution. Creating a board of advisors is always really important. 24:28 having independent members in your board of advisors is so incredibly valuable to have a knowledgeable, independent person that can help through disputes. business disputes are one thing, but when you include a family dynamic in these disputes, emotions can get high and heated. And so having an independent third board 24:57 Third party board is extremely valuable. Somebody that can guide you, something that your family trusts. Those are some big things that I've seen as best practices. And I think that lastly, holding dedicated, regular meetings. 25:23 You'll talk about business, you know, at the dinner table or, you know, out and about you're at a kid, one of your niece's birthday parties and everyone's there and you're like, Hey, did you see that email from XYZ? We got to figure out how to handle that. But those are not the time and place and you're not going to have a productive conversation. And so you need to set aside and create boundaries between your family life and your business life and set aside regular times. 25:53 weekly, bi-weekly, to have an hour conversation about what's going on, any disputes that need to be discussed, any decisions that need to be made. And that's your time to solely be in your business mode. Because having these conversation piece meals, dinner on a Saturday night, or a family's birthday party, or a holiday party, 26:22 It's not effective for your business. And one of the biggest, best practices and the most, one of the most important goals is to preserve your family relationships. Beautiful. You heard it here on the founder's sandbox to preserve family. Absolutely. Cause if you don't have family, do you have? That's right. 26:52 Family first. really important. It's really important. And sometimes business can get in the middle of family relationships. And it hurts to see that. It hurts to see business tear between brothers, tear between father and son. And I've seen those things in it. There needs to be just a second to breathe. Yes. 27:21 and realize that there are bigger things than business and that they need to be resolved, but they can only be resolved if you have a good relationship with your business partner slash your family. They're your biggest support. 27:37 This has been immensely actionable in terms of governance, the best practice you've seen in family offices. So thank you. Thank you for that. It's not often that I do have a lawyer that works in this arena. Although family businesses just in the LA ecosystem is 28:05 It's very predominant. very, very, you know, third, actually third and fourth generation now. So very relevant to your business and mine. Let's switch gears. You are, I believe, sitting on the board of directors or one of the committees of the Association of Corporate Growth. Yes. And tell us a bit what why what is the Association of Corporate Growth and what committees do you serve on? 28:35 And how do you further your business there? Thank you. The Association of Corporate Growth or ACG is a national organization for professionals in the M &A sphere. So you've got members that are VCs, investment bankers, M &A attorneys, wealth managers, insurance specialists. You sort of name it. Anybody that's 29:03 has some sort of involvement in the purchase or sale of a business or just surround sort of just general business governance that either prepare for an exit. You know, those are the kind of people that are members of ACG. And I got involved a few years ago. And I think three years now, I've been sitting on the Women's Committee, which is a 29:31 Fantastic. We schedule and create women-focused programming within the confines of the ACG organization and really promote networking amongst women. More and more, I have had clients that have requested that they only work with women. 29:58 You know, and this sort of goes back to what I was talking about earlier about being able to provide trustworthy referrals. And I've met some incredible, incredible women in connection with ACJ. In fact, our group kind of came out of ACJ. This is how I met you, Brenda. And so it's been a fantastic, fantastic network to be a part of. You know, I love planning the programming, our programming. 30:28 ranges everywhere from talking about the state of the market to balancing family and career and what that looks like and mental health. I think I hate calling out a distinction that we are women in business because I think a 30:57 A business person is a business person. I don't think it needs to be defined as such, but there is something to be said about the fact that women have a different set of challenges in the workplace than men do. And a lot of those stem from family life. And that needs to be balanced. And so there's a lot of programming that the women's committee puts on that sort of 31:26 talks about that and gears us in that direction and gives us tools to be successful and to strive in the face of everything else that women just have to deal with and take care of. That's for another episode here. Yes, very much so. Very much so, yes, as we all have balanced our careers and family priorities, right? 31:56 Let's switch gears. How do my listeners contact you? How's the best way? Well, so I'm at again, I'm at Greenberg Gloucester. We're in Century City. They can email me. It's a Steinberg at gg firm.com. And on our Greenberg Gloucester website, if you search people, I've got my whole bio and all of my contact information as well. Excellent. 32:25 Well, that will appear in the show notes. All right. So we're coming into the final part of this podcast in which I actually enjoy asking my guests what the meaning is of certain terms that I actually practice with my clients. I'm working with purpose-driven companies, resilience. We work on resilience tactics and scalable business is sustainable. So I always love the opportunity to hear 32:55 firsthand from my guess. What does purpose-driven mean to you, Purpose-driven means a mission that goes beyond profit. It taps into creating meaningful value for your customers, for your employees, for the community that you operate in. It's sort of about building a company that 33:25 that stands for something. And I'm very pleased to say that we have seen so many more companies start out of a purpose-driven goal. There's a bunch of old companies and new companies. There's a lot of companies that have this sort of one-for-one model. You buy one, we donate one. 33:52 There are socks companies, there are eyeglass companies, there are shoe companies, there are cleaning product companies that sort of have this as their motto. And then you see additionally, know, products and companies that are committed to the environment or sustainability and cleanup efforts. You know, that's really what purpose-driven 34:21 means to me is that these companies have a goal. They want to accomplish something more than what they can show on their balance sheet. consumers of that product are helping them achieve that. Excellent. Excellent. You've touched on even other aspects like sustainable growth, right? Yeah. Right. What is resilience? You've been particularly resilient. 34:49 You having a father like your father, building life skills early. would resilience, what's the meaning to you? 35:00 Resilience is about navigating challenges with adaptability and with determination. It's about learning from your setbacks instead of being defined by them, having them be a fire to your growth and having them be the galvanization of your progress forward. 35:30 You know, and in business, it also can be about the ability to pivot while staying aligned with your long-term goals, about the ability to, you know, okay, there's a new regulatory, new regulation that's gonna affect the way we operate. Okay, how are we gonna pivot to continue doing what we do, but still can stay in compliance? You know, that's really, 35:59 what it's all beyond your toes. Excellent. And you're scalable. I'd like you to kind of share the meaning within the context of scaling the legal practice. What have you found to be particularly challenging or easy to do? Right. And scaling, right. Because it's a very bespoke practice. Is there any important, right? Scaling is absolutely important. Okay. 36:28 In my practice and in my business, number one goal and the biggest galvanization point of scaling my practice are my clients, my current clients. If you do a good job for them, they'll continue to come back. 36:59 and they'll continue to give you more business. Creating a network. I watched my parents in their, both of their practices. All of our family friends at this point have at one point or another been a client of my mother's or of my father's. They've swapped clients, referred to each other. And these individuals either started as friends and became clients. 37:29 or became friends because they were clients. And that is the way that both of my parents have built their practice and their brands. And that's how I want to do it too. It's a value add when, attorneys are scary to begin with. Nobody wants to talk to an attorney. It's expensive. Half the time you have no idea what they're talking about. It's language. 37:57 You know, but if you create this relationship of trust and of loyalty and friendship and when you feel like your attorney sees beyond just you as a dollar figure or you as a business, it goes such a long way. And that's my main value add to my clients. And in turn, they help me scale. 38:22 my business, clients continue to come back to me and I'm able to continue to grow that because I can satisfy all of their needs with the network that I'm creating through places like ACG. You know, so that's, that's what I see is as scalable in my industry. It's extremely important. And it goes to the heart of how I practice law and how, how I guide and advise my clients. Beautiful. 38:52 Thank you. heard it here on the Founder's Sandbox. Last question, Alexa. Did you have fun in the sandbox today? Oh, it was so fun. Brenda, thank you so much for having me.

In this episode we're sharing the highlights from our recent interview with Carol Steinberg, whose children's book, Come Grandpa Meow, Let's Fly, adds a much-needed resource for families navigating the challenges of Alzheimer's and dementia. A Personal Story Sparked by Loss Carol's journey began more than 25 years ago, during her own father's struggle with Alzheimer's. She originally wrote the book as part of her grieving process, but it wasn't until she'd spent years working at both local and national Alzheimer's organizations that the story truly found its shape. The finished book beautifully balances respect, understanding, and connection for readers young and old. Empowering Children & Families One thing that sets Carol's children's book apart is its focus on empathy, understanding, and practical intergenerational activities that help children stay connected with loved ones living with dementia. As Carol says, “We need to bust the stigmas. We need the world to know that people with dementia are still people. They're still your loved ones. They may act differently—and I hope I show that in the book.” For Adults, Too Although written for children (ages 5 to 9, but suitable for older readers too!), this book is just as impactful for adults. As Vicki Tapia, AlzAuthors acquisitions editor, noted, the story “helps explain and cope with the changes that are happening [to a loved one].” Plus, the activities at the end offer concrete, research-backed ways that families can nurture connection. Recommended by the Experts Don't just take our word for it—Come Grandpa Meow, Let's Fly comes with glowing endorsements from field leaders like Teepa Snow, Dr. Daniel Potts, and people living with dementia, who praise its realism, sensitivity, and stigma-busting power. Whether you're a caregiver, educator, parent, or grandparent, Carol's book is a gentle guide to fostering compassion, understanding, and lasting memories—no matter where you or your loved one are on the dementia journey.

Thinking about plastic surgery after weight loss? Wondering if you're mentally ready for the change?In this powerful episode of Bari Connected, host Mel sits down with Dr. Ashley Steinberg, a renowned board-certified plastic surgeon from Houston, to dive into everything you NEED to know before going under the knife post-bariatric surgery.
In 2018, Austrian trumpeter Selina Ott made history by becoming the first woman to win first prize in the 70-year history of the prestigious ARD International Music Competition in Munich. That landmark achievement launched a remarkable career that has taken her to concert halls around the world, performing both as a soloist and with major orchestras. Her debut album, Trumpet Concertos, was honored with the Opus Klassik Award in 2021, and she has since released two more acclaimed solo recordings. Though still early in her musical journey, Selina has already established herself as one of the leading voices of her generation.In this conversation, I had the great pleasure of speaking with Selina about some of the defining moments in her life and career so far. In part one, we begin with her recent experience performing Wynton Marsalis's Trumpet Concerto with the ORF Vienna Radio Symphony Orchestra under the baton of Marin Alsop. She shares what it was like to collaborate with Marsalis himself and how that experience left a lasting impact. We then reflect on her preparation for, and participation in, the ARD Munich competition—what it took to succeed, and how her life changed overnight following her win. From there, we rewind even further to talk about her early beginnings on the trumpet as a young girl, and the important influence of legendary trumpeter Håkan Hardenberger.[Subscriber Content] In part two, we shift our focus to the balance between orchestral and solo playing, and what it really means to be a well-rounded soloist in today's musical world. We also touch on Selina's relationship with social media and why she chooses to keep a relatively low profile online. One of the more unique aspects of her life outside of music is her passion for horses—she owns several—and we explore how that love for animals complements her musical life. Selina also gives us insight into how she chooses her concert repertoire, both for solo recitals and orchestral performances. And finally, I ask her what advice she would give to a 10-year-old girl dreaming of becoming a musician one day.DoricoProfessional music notation and composition software from Steinberg.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Military reporter Emanuel Fabian and culture editor Jessica Steinberg join host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. Fabian was in the Gaza Strip last week at the Morag Corridor. He compares this trip to previous IDF embeds and describes what he saw. We learn about the very intense fighting in the Strip and hear about the incidents in which three servicemen recently lost their lives: Master Sgt. (res.) Asaf Cafri, Cpt. Ido Voloch and Sgt. Neta Yitzhak Kahane, of the Border Police’s Yamas covert unit. For only the third time since a ceasefire in Lebanon went into effect in November 2024, the IDF carried out an attack in the Beirut area. We learn what the IDF was targeting and what this means for the ceasefire. Some 12,000 people led by Holocaust survivors and an Israeli delegation of released hostages, hostages’ family members, and bereaved families marched Thursday from Auschwitz to the Birkenau camp for the 2025 March of the Living, with the horrors of the murder of six million Jews mingling with the plight of the captives in Gaza. Steinberg was on the ground with them and reports back. To end the program, we hear about a rally staged Sunday night by the families of the “Beautiful 6,” six hostages murdered by Hamas terrorists in Gaza at the end of August last year. The six hostages killed by their captors in Gaza were Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Carmel Gat, Eden Yerushalmi, Almog Sarusi, Or Danino and Alex Lubanov. We hear about an evening of song, prayer and calls for unity. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing live blog for more updates.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Culture editor Jessica Steinberg joins host Amanda Borschel-Dan for today's episode. We begin today's program by discussing Israeli art in a post-October 7 world. Steinberg brings us several examples, starting with Design Museum Holon latest exhibit, “Heroines.” Steinberg explains how this show examines how fashion design provided a sense of hope during dark times. Our next stop is the spiral surroundings of the Bat Yam Museum of Art, which are hosting artist Ester Schneider in her first solo museum exhibit, “Hoshana,” which showcases her installations, paintings and watercolors. Steinberg sets the scene. Sofie Berzon Mackie, Kibbutz Be’eri’s art gallery director and curator, has lived and worked in more than one temporary home since the Hamas onslaught on October 7, 2023, decimated her home and community. Steinberg shares how the Be’eri gallery, an art institution cherished on the kibbutz since 1986, was torched by Hamas terrorists, leaving nothing untouched. She explains where the art -- and curator -- are now. Finally, we turn to how hostage parents have prepared themselves for another Passover seder without their children who are still in bondage. One example is Viki Cohen, whose son Nimrod Cohen was a soldier taken captive by Hamas terrorists on October 7, 2023. Viki has recently released a children’s Haggadah for Passover, adding illustrations of the hostages — those still in captivity, those who were freed and those who were killed — and symbols and signs of their lives. We hear more.

Disney+ is set to bring a fresh take on the Power Rangers franchise, with Percy Jackson and the Olympians showrunners Jonathan E. Steinberg and Dan Shotz in discussions to lead the project. The new live-action series, produced by Hasbro and 20th Television, aims to reimagine the iconic property for a new generation while keeping longtime fans engaged.The Power Rangers franchise, which began as Mighty Morphin' Power Rangers in 1993, has spanned multiple iterations, movies, and reboots over the last three decades. Based on Japan's Super Sentai, the original series followed a group of teenagers granted the ability to morph into color-coded heroes, battling intergalactic threats with their signature Zords.While the series has enjoyed continued success, attempts to translate the franchise to the big screen have seen mixed results. The 2017 Power Rangers film, a darker, more YA-focused reboot, failed to generate the box office numbers necessary to launch a sequel, despite a passionate fan response.Hasbro acquired the Power Rangers brand in 2018, with an ambitious plan to expand its entertainment presence. This new Disney+ series is the latest effort to revitalize the franchise under Hasbro's guidance.Steinberg and Shotz have built a reputation for delivering compelling character-driven storytelling. Their work on Percy Jackson and the Olympians has been widely praised, successfully adapting Rick Riordan's beloved book series for Disney+. Their previous credits include The Old Man, an FX thriller starring Jeff Bridges and John Lithgow.Their involvement signals a commitment to quality storytelling and world-building, potentially giving Power Rangers the prestige TV treatment that long-time fans have hoped for.Hasbro Entertainment has been making aggressive moves in the television and film space, with projects based on Dungeons & Dragons, Magic: The Gathering, and Clue in the works. The company is leveraging its vast portfolio of intellectual properties, with Power Rangers positioned as a key franchise in this expansion.Details on the series' storyline, casting, or whether it will adapt an existing Super Sentai season remain under wraps. However, given Disney+'s commitment to high-budget fantasy and adventure programming, expectations for this new iteration are high.As the project develops, the question remains: will this be the definitive Power Rangers revival, or will it face the same challenges that previous reboots encountered?

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. Reporter Amy Spiro filling in for diplomatic correspondent Lazar Berman and environmental correspondent Sue Surkes join host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. Spiro says there is optimism that the proposed hostage deal will be signed by Wednesday or Thursday, and reviews the proposed details of the deal that it is very similar to what was proposed last May, with a first stage of 33 hostages to be released in exchange for around 1,000 Palestinian prisoners in Israel, and negotiations on a second phase of hostages 16 days into the ceasefire. Spiro says that Foreign Minister Gideon Sa'ar calls this a gradual deal, not a partial deal. She reviews the process of approving the deal, which would first go to the security cabinet and then to the entire government cabinet. Spiro remarks that Likud ministers have said the deal will pass, even without right-wing politicians National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir or Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich on board, and that opposition leader Yair Lapid has said he will do what is necessary to ensure the deal goes through despite any longer-term political implications. Surkes discusses the new reforms aimed at changing the range of imported goods from the European Union, intended to lower prices on goods in Israel. Surkes also looks at a Tel Aviv University study regarding the lack of cave art in the Levant and a bereaved family member's newspaper that looks at how Israel could become a better place. The printed newspaper, written only by bereaved families, aligns with the latest Yoni Bloch song that Steinberg speaks about briefly, with an AI clip that imagines the hostages released home and peace in the Middle East. For news updates, please check out The Times of Israel’s ongoing live blog. Discussed articles include: Smotrich undecided on hostage deal at this ‘fateful moment’ Gaza ceasefire-hostage deal on brink of finalization, as reports spell out details Israeli officials: Deal will see 33 hostages freed in 1st stage, most of them alive Ben Gvir says he repeatedly foiled hostage deals, urges Smotrich to help him stop this one Along with soaring prices, Israel rings in 2025 with economic reforms, but will they work?
