The narrative in Katya Cengel's new memoir "Straitjackets and Lunch Money" is set in motion by her volunteer work at a juvenile detention facility in the Bay Area in 2012. The experience served as a catalyst, unearthing memories of her own past. In 1986, at the age of 10, Cengel was hospitalized in the now defunct psychosomatic unit of Stanford Children's Hospital, battling an extreme eating disorder. At the time of her admission, she weighed a mere 55 pounds. Her story is a reflection on the evolving landscape of mental healthcare and support for young people facing similar challenges.

The Grape Nut, Betsey Nash, visited Casa Dumetz in Los Alamos, and learned about an important aspect of the wine experience: people. Next, our final episode in KCBX's series "Polling the People". KCBX's Brian Reynolds speaks with local author and journalist Katya Cengel about her latest book Straitjackets and Lunch Money. Correspondent Tom Wilmer recently spent the day with robots, drones and their handlers at a high tech ag expo held at the Salinas Sports Complex. And finally, a student reporter from UC Santa Barbara shares her preview of the Santa Barbara Symphony's Fall season.

This is the first in a series of interviews with headteachers and former heads talking about Ofsted (the Office for Standards in Education - England's schools inspectorate). Rebecca Leek is an experienced strategic leader who has worked across a wide range of settings and organisations, and she's currently the Executive Director of the Suffolk Primary Headteachers' Assocation. She has been a headteacher, executive headteacher, chief executive, a teacher and a Senco, and is a veteran of no fewer than 14 Ofsted inspections. She is a systems thinker, an innovator, and has been described as 'a harbinger of light'. She is increasingly in demand as a speaker, trainer and writer and brings with her a wealth of knowledge and insight from her involvement in a number of sectors including the arts, social enterprise, communications, permaculture and education. Rebecca describes herself as a holistic leader and is interested in systems and governance, belonging, and spiritual sustenance within schools. As we will hear several times in this conversation, Rebecca's practice as a permaculturist informs much of what she does, and in particular the principles of valuing diversity and what happens at the margins.

Mientras todo el mundo se quiere quitar la mascarilla, nosotros buscamos enmascarados musicales. La máscara siempre ha sido un símbolo litúrgico, fetichista y lúdico. Desde los inicios del rock' n roll, la teatralidad de los conciertos ha ido aumentando y generando estilos como el shock rock. Arthur Brown, Alice Cooper o Kiss serían los grandes referentes con maquillajes cada vez más elaborados. El corpse paint de la escena black metal ya es un icono de la cultura popular. Otros maquillajes macabros los han llevado los Misfits o los grandes herederos de King Diamond, Ghost. Centrándonos en grandes máscaras y caretas podemos encontrar al troll Mortiis, los bárbaros Heilung, los surferos Straitjackets con sus máscaras mexicanas, el antifaz de Orion, el art rock de The Residents, el metal de Crimson Glory y Slipknot, el virtuosismo de Buckethead, el hip hop de MF Doom, los eurovisivos Lordi, los robóticos Daft Punk, el roedor Deadmau5 y hasta una banda con Destro de los GIJoe.

“One of my deep beliefs and convictions is that we live in a society where people are hyper-focused on getting their point across and having their point of view heard and seen. And therefore they do not develop the muscle and/or ability to provide people the same space and latitude that they want for themselves. So I've taken it upon myself to be someone who stands in that gap, who sits in that gap, who holds the tension of [that gap].” - Dax-Devlon Ross Ever Forward Club's Ashanti Branch is joined by Dax-Devlon Ross. Dax is the author of six books, and his journalism has been featured in Time, The Guardian, The New York Times, Virginia Quarterly Review, Nonprofit Quarterly, The Washington Post Magazine, and other national publications. A New York City teaching fellow turned non-profit executive, Dax is now a principal at the social impact consultancies Dax-Dev and Third Settlements, both of which focus on designing disruptive strategies to generate equity in workplaces and education spaces alike. Dax speaks with great conviction, and we are excited for you to experience this as he and Ashanti discuss their masks, the importance of friendship, and navigating the pitfalls of the dominant culture. (5:45) Ashanti and Dax say hello. Then, Dax introduces himself, his name, his writing, and how he works to make sure every human being can thrive. (12:50) After Ashanti shares how he felt guilt whenever he got good grades, Dax some of the class guilt he held onto while he was growing up. (19:10) Ashanti and Dax make their masks together. (24:30) Ashanti shares the front of his mask - serious, dedicated, others before self - and how unsure he feels about putting others before himself. (27:15) Dax shares the front of his mask - intellect, family man/provider, bridge builder - and the roles he wants to play as a writer, a relative, and a worker. (32:15) Ashanti shares the back of his mask - tired, self-doubt, worrier vs. warrior - and he and Dax discuss how hard it is to extricate themselves from the scarcity mindset/dominant culture. (36:30) Dax shares the back of his mask - a longing for connection and friendship, anxiety over financial future, anxiety over physical and mental decline. (40:30) Dax and Ashanti ponder male friendships and how they have been affected by the over-sexualization of our society. (46:30) Dax reflects on how it felt making a mask. Then, he and Ashanti share some final thoughts on how men and boys can break out of “the straight jacket.” (53:00) Dax shares how you can connect with him. --- Connect with Dax-Devlon Ross: Website: dax-dev.com LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/dax-devlon-ross-69b3749 --- Support the podcast and the work of the Ever Forward Club: anchor.fm/branch-speaks/support Create your own mask anonymously at millionmask.org If you are interested in being on the Face to Face podcast, email us at everforwardclub@gmail.com --- Connect with Ashanti Branch: Instagram: instagram.com/branchspeaks Facebook: facebook.com/BranchSpeaks Twitter: twitter.com/BranchSpeaks LinkedIn: linkedin.com/in/ashantibranch Website: branchspeaks.com --- Send in a voice message: anchor.fm/branch-speaks/message --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/branch-speaks/support

Download This month, Roger and Mike consider the history and utility of character classes… and do not reveal their True Names.

El comienzo de hoy son varios instrumentales desde el surf, el primero de los Starhoppers californianos sacado de su disco Nominal AF, algunos con toque de horror como el de los Wiped Out neoyorquinos, o los espaciales rusos de San Petersburgo, The Sloptones. Davie Allan lleva componiendo desde los 60, sobretodo canciones de pelis de adolescentes y de moteros y ahora nos ha presentado su nuevo Cyclelogical (no puede dejar de lado lo que ruede). El powerpopero Timmy Sean se va a Memphis, a Sun Records, y le sale un That's Alright guitarrero, casi metal, menos mal que Solomon Woodland con su Holy Ground nos devuelve a los sonidos más reconocibles, como los rockandroles o R&B de los que estrenamos ayer Koko-Jean & The Tonics desde Barcelona o los Tammi Savoy & The Chris Casello Combo desde Chicago, lo que nos deja el terreno abonado para el rockandroll más canónico con el californiano J.P. McDermott y su banda Western Bop, homenajeando a Buddy Holly y bailando por la playa. Los suecos Radiovisions vuelven a sonar con su reciente Stop, Drop and Roll y dan paso al doble de Shakin' Stevens, Rebel Dean, que le representa en un musical del teatro británico, antes de que Brian Setzer nos recuerde contar hasta 9, como las vidas de un buen rockabilly cat. Ah, y de bonus, lo nuevo de los Straitjackets, otro instrumental, triste en este caso como las lluvias de abril, ya veremos si este año caen.The Starhoppers, Retro RocketsWiped Out, ReverbologyThe Sloptones, UFO DetectorThe Sloptones, Surf of the DeadDavie Allan & The Arrows, Heads UpTimmy Sean, That's All RightSolomon Woodland, Set Me FreeKoko-Jean & The Tonics, From The Country To The CityTammi Savoy & The Chris Casello Combo, Fine And DandyTammi Savoy & The Chris Casello Combo, If It's News To YouJ.P.

...o Jason ahora sin los Scorchers Ringenberg que sería rico de haber pedido un dólar por promesa. El super barbudo Dallas Moore nos presenta la canción que da título a su nuevo disco, seguro que repleto de rock and roll. Un poco de blues con los Walker Roaders y su hipnótica versión del blues de Howlin Wolf y el funkie de Selwin Birchwood dan paso a la reencarnación rocker de Guillermo el Conquistador 1000 años después, antes de conocer a los neoyorquinos Jane Lee Hooker (¿la hermana de John?) y a Ray Cardwell que versiona a Al Green con su llévame al río.

Los superhéroes están de moda y Los Retronautas con la ayuda de Antonio Monfort se lanzan a explorar los orígenes de la figura del superhéroe; un viaje que nos lleva desde los héroes clásicos como Hércules a mitos literarios del s. XIX como son Drácula o Sherlock Holmes. Hablamos también de las primeras apariciones de superhombres en la Ciencia-Ficción y en especial de la novela "Gladiador" de Philip Wylie, considerada por alguna crítica como un claro precedente de Supermán. No nos olvidaremos de precedentes pulp como Doc Savage y por fín llegaremos al azaroso nacimiento de la figura de Supermán, el primer superhéroe en sentido estricto. Como acompañamiento musical suenan los temas "Blowout" de los Straitjackets, el disco "Music for heavenly bodies" de Paul Tanner y despedimos con "Sunshine Superman" de Mel Torme. Como es habitual la sintonia es el tema "Spectre Detector" de los Tiki Tones.

Sorry for the long time between episodes, but in the interim, I became a father. Audrey Ruth was born Dec 15, and so I wanted to celebrate by featuring a song first made famous by another lovely Audrey. I skipped over many of the biggest versions of this song and went right for the most interesting (for the most part). Enjoy!

Estrenamos febrero. Y como es habitual, cambio de mes, cambio de sintonia . Todos los Sonidos y Sonados de febrero estaran presididos por «Space Mosquito» de los Straitjackets. Hoy nos damos unas cuantas de vueltas por la geografía de la piel de toro, con alguna  que otra salida al extranjero. Hoy contamos con la colaboración de The Frigolos, Frank […]
