Simon Barry (Warrior Nun, Continuum) returns to the YVR Screen Scene Podcast to discuss his latest series. Bet – 10 episodes of which dropped on Netflix in May 2025 – draws its inspiration from the manga Kakegurai – Compulsive Gambler.

Welcome to the WAB Podcast. In this episode, we take a closer look at what student leadership looks like in our Elementary School, and how even our Elementary students are making a difference in their school community.  We're joined by three members of the ES Student Council: Carolina and Maya from Grade 5, and Julian from Grade 3, as well as Elementary School Principal Catherine Pierre-Louis. Together, they reflect on what it means to be part of Student Council, why they chose to get involved, and how they've worked together to lead projects that matter to them and their peers.  Building Leadership Through Action  Catherine explained that the ES Student Council operates as an after-school activity (ASA), where students sign up through SchoolsBuddy. They can join one or all of the three activity seasons throughout the year. Looking ahead, there's a vision to expand the program into a year-long commitment to foster leadership development and support more student-led projects.  Once they join, students collaborate to brainstorm, vote on, and implement ideas that enhance the school environment. Through this process, they learn how to express their thoughts, turn ideas into action, and develop essential skills in leadership, communication, and teamwork.  Why and What They Lead  When asked what motivated them to join, Carolina shared that she wanted to make a positive change in the school environment. Maya was inspired to contribute positively and help others. Julian joined out of curiosity and discovered a passion for leadership along the way.   They also highlighted some of the projects they've led. Maya and her friends transformed an underused Grade 5 hangout spot into a welcoming space by cleaning and repainting it. Julian brought creative ideas to Spirit Week by introducing different themed dress-up days. Carolina led an initiative to build connections between students and cleaning staff, encouraging students to take responsibility for cleaning up after meals.  Overcoming Challenges and Creating Impacts  Catherine shared how students had faced actual challenges, like adapting when events don't go as planned, and learn to problem-solve and rally support from their peers. One success story is the Plant Squad, which reopened the school greenhouse for student use during breaks, overcoming initial hurdles related to supervision and participation. Student feedback has also played a key role in shaping larger school initiatives, such as the redesign of the ES playground, where many student ideas were incorporated into the final plan.  Tune in to this episode to hear how WAB's ES Student Council empowers students to voice their opinions, build leadership skills, and take an active role in shaping their school community and learning spaces.

Staff and students of an Ennis secondary school are expressing disappointment as plans for a bus shelter appear to have hit a dead end. After engagements with Clare County Council, the National Transport Authority and the Department of Education, there remains no clear funding stream for the much requested piece of infrastructure. Roughly two years ago, the Student Council of St Flannan's College made it known to school management that a bus shelter had been identified as a priority project by the student body which currently numbers 1,280. Those who avail of a school bus service at St Flannan's currently have to wait on the footpath beside the school gates on Cusack Road which although sheltered by trees has no protection from the elements. Leaving Cert student Brendan O'Halloran, who sits on the Student Council, says it deters people from wanting to get the bus. After becoming aware of the problem, the school's principal, Father Ignatius McCormack, wrote to the National Transport Authority to request the installation of a bus shelter. Having been told the matter wasn't within the authority's remit, he then contacted the Department of Education but this effort also proved fruitless as he was informed there's no designated funding stream for such a project. Clare County Council was the next port of call in the school's bid to secure funding and a meeting was held between a school official, an Ennis Municipal District engineer and a Department of Education representative to this end in November 2024. This meeting heard however that the local authority has no responsibility for the provision of a bus shelter at the location as the bus stop isn't publicly used. Father McCormack is remaining hopeful Clare County Council will fund the project. Exploring another avenue, the Student Council recently contacted Clarecastle Fine Gael Councillor Paul Murphy who subsequently raised the matter at a recent meeting of Ennis Municipal District. A response from a Senior Engineer reiterated the view that such a development is the responsibility of either the school itself or the Department of Education. Councillor Murphy believes engaging with the Department to be the most viable way of progressing the project. A recent survey conducted by the Student Council has found that over 300 students at St Flannan's get the bus which accounts for over a quarter of its enrolment. Student Council member Aoibheann O'Dwyer insists if schools want to make travelling bus more appealing, the right infrastructure must be in place.

The Matt Allison Show 

Sierra Hawley was nominated as a Beck's Player with Heart for her commitment and passion on and off the court. Along with the good and bad experiences that sports have put her through, she would say the thing she loves most about high school sports is the way these experiences have shaped her and will continue to impact her for the rest of her life. Sports at her high school is something that brings the community together as a whole, and it's an amazing feeling to see a full crowd support her. She loves the feeling of stepping on the field or court, knowing that all her hard work is about to be tested. No one likes to lose, but she's come to realize that she learns the most from losing, and she can't grow until she fails. Beyond the competition aspect, high school sports have allowed her to surround herself with teammates and coaches who have pushed and supported her through everything. The countless hours of dedication she's given to three different sports over the last few years have taught her discipline, leadership, resilience, and teamwork. At school, Sierra is involved in varsity volleyball, basketball, and tennis. Outside of sports, she is involved in the National Honor Society (NHS), Spanish club, art club, Student Council, prom committee, and FFA. Outside school, she is involved in Kosciusko Youth Leadership Academy (KYLA), Leadership Marshall County Emerge (LMC), 4-H, and Jr. Leaders. Sierra's KYLA group puts boxes in local schools, churches, and banks to collect donated clothing, hygiene items, and craft supplies, which they then set up a little "shop" at Cardinal Services in Warsaw. Cardinal provides services for children and adults with disabilities. With the remaining donations, they bring them to local homeless shelters. Her involvement with Jr. Leaders through 4-H has allowed her to participate in various community service projects such as volunteering at the humane society, local food pantries, and Cultivate Food Rescue. In FFA, she completes many community service projects as well. Every year she makes tie blankets to give to Riley's Children's Hospital, participates in roadside cleanup, and attends the Farmers Breakfast, where they make pancakes and sausage for their local farmers to come in and eat for free. Most people think agriculture is just farming, but it means more to Sierra. To her, it means hard work, responsibility, and a way of life that feeds and sustains her community. Being involved in 4-H and FFA for eight years has given her hands-on experience that has deepened her respect for the farmers and agricultural leaders of the world. Whether she's raising livestock or working on a 4-H project, she's come to understand the dedication it takes to succeed in agriculture. It has taught her leadership, problem-solving, and the importance of innovation in this advancing industry. In a way, agriculture brings communities together and she is proud to say she's a part of something that plays such a vital role in everyday life. Sierra's plans aren't fully set in stone, but she knows she wants to do something in the medical field so she can help people. As of right now, she wants to pursue a career in radiology and potentially attend the University of IU Bloomington.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Delaney Engler was nominated as a Beck's Player with Heart for her commitment and passion on and off the field and court. The thing she loves most about high school sports is the team aspect and the positive culture that it provides. Living in a small community has allowed her to play multiple sports with several of her classmates. This core group of girls has not only served as talented teammates but also lifelong friends. She is extremely grateful for the incredible opportunities that she has been introduced to throughout high school sports. Competing at such a high level alongside her best friends is an experience that she will truly never forget. Throughout her high school career, Delaney has had successful varsity careers in volleyball, softball, and basketball. Additionally, she currently serves as her school's FFA chapter president and the Southeast District FFA treasurer. She is also involved in the National Honor Society, and Student Council, and serves as her 4-H Club secretary. Through living in a small community, Delaney has had multiple opportunities to lend a helping hand to charitable organizations. Specifically, she spends the majority of her summer volunteering with youth sports league organizations and providing sports lessons. It is exciting for her to be able to help grow the athletic skills of young athletes in her community. Additionally, she volunteers at the local ballpark concession stand and Easter Egg Hunts when needed. She has also had the opportunity to volunteer with Café on Vine through her 4-H club and serve meals to the less fortunate. To Delaney, agriculture serves as the traditional backbone of America. Without the agriculture industry, consumers would not be able to eat food, wear clothes, drive their cars, and so much more. The practice of providing products for the American people will never become insignificant. The work ethic that farmers showcase to provide for consumers is truly admirable. Being raised on a diversified livestock and crop operation has taught her firsthand the work that goes into the agriculture industry day in and day out. After graduating high school, Delaney plans to attend Illinois Central College to obtain a transfer degree in animal science and compete on the livestock judging team. Then, she will attend Iowa State University to complete her bachelor's degree and continue her livestock judging career.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Caleb Urban was nominated as a Beck's Player with Heart for his commitment and passion on and off the court and field. One thing he loves about high school sports is the leadership roles that he has held. He has been a captain in football and basketball for the past two years but has considered himself a leader his whole career. He enjoys being a role model for all the younger kids in his school and enjoys seeing and talking to them during school and after games. He expressed his gratitude that sports have allowed him to be a role model to the kids in his community. Caleb competes in football, basketball, track and field, and baseball. He is involved in the National Honor Society and Student Council. Caleb participates in his community as an EMAYS youth volunteer, where he coaches, referees, and helps set up and take down events. He is also the 4-H vice president, has worked at multiple blood drives through NHS, and volunteers at other various projects at his school. Through 4-H, he has attended nursing homes for visits with the elderly and made goodie bags to hand out, toy drives for Christmas gifts for kids in need, the Salvation Army bell ringing, and cleanup at the fairgrounds. Agriculture is important to Caleb and his family because it has provided a living for his grandparents and is an important way of life for all of them. His mother was raised on a second-generation farm and he grew up in tractors and combines, riding with his grandfather. He has also been given the opportunity to work on an area farm as a farmhand and enjoyed the first-hand experience. By growing up on a farm, he has had the chance to learn about the importance of agriculture to his family, his community, and the world. After graduating high school, Caleb plans to attend Central College and major in kinesiology with the goal of becoming an Emergency Room Physician.

Kylee Hall was nominated as a Beck's Player with Heart for her commitment and passion on and off the field and court. What she loves most about high school sports is the team aspect; where she can cheer on her teammates, celebrate success together, and help each other through every high and low. She also enjoys having her friends as teammates who participate in the same sports as her. She enjoys working hard in practice to improve her skills and see the results in the competitions. She appreciates being coached, learning different things during each sports season, and the variety of life skills that sports teach her. The sports Kylee competes in include softball, basketball, and volleyball. She is involved in the National Junior Honor Society, Student Council, Knowledge Bowl, and Choir. When she is not working in school, Kylee participates in her church's youth group and travel softball. To Kylee, agriculture means hard work and dedication. In her family, there have been generations of farmers, so she understands the commitment it takes, the work ethic that is needed, and the overall importance of agriculture to provide necessities to communities. She enjoys traveling to stay with her grandparents who farm corn and soybeans each fall during harvest. Their work ethic has been an example to her parents and has passed on to her in everything she does. Kylee plans to graduate from high school, attend college, and play Division 1 softball. She is currently thinking about majoring in elementary education or exercise science.

Madison Lauck was nominated as a Beck's Player with Heart for her commitment and passion on and off the court and course. What she loves most about high school sports is being part of a team. As one of the team captains this year, she wanted to lead by example by having a positive attitude and encouraging her teammates when times got hard on the court. As for golf, she has valued building her ability to handle stress independently on the course and discovering her mental strength and ability to perform successfully under pressure. She has been blessed to grow up in a small community where she can be highly involved, allowing her to develop time management skills, work as a team, and become a leader. Madison competes in volleyball and golf. She is involved in the FFA for 6 years and holds the office of chapter secretary, 4-H for 10 years, Student Council and holds the position of president, band, co-section, Tri-M music honor society group as the secretary, National Honors Society as the fundraising chairperson, and FCA (Fellowship of Christian Athletes).

Madison is most proud of the senior project that she developed to benefit her community. She went on a two-year journey to create a statewide campaign with Trashie, a company that prides itself on zero-waste fashion. She developed a knowledge check survey of upcycling and the effects of textile waste on the environment. She then created an educational video on upcycling, environmental concerns with textile waste, and how people can be part of the solution. She wanted to not only complete a final research project, but also to put it into action and make actual change, bring awareness to the importance of limiting textile waste, and gain knowledge of ways upcycling can help the environment. Agriculture to Madison is a way of life. More importantly, it is a community. She has been blessed to be surrounded by family and friends who work tireless hours and will drop everything to help a neighbor or community member. FFA has provided her with invaluable knowledge of agriculture's importance, leadership skills development, and how agriculture will play a role in the rest of her life. Madison plans to attend South Dakota State University to earn her undergraduate degree in human biology while in the honors program. She will then obtain her physician assistant degree potentially at the University of South Dakota.

Extracurricular activities have been a major part of his high school experience. Through the many different meetings, contests, and games, he has developed strong leadership, communication, and teamwork skills that will serve him well in the future. Ashton competes in basketball, football, and track and field. He is involved with the National Honor Society as the vice president, Cambria-Friesland Forensics, Student Council as the president, and Future Business Leaders of America. Ashton is also heavily involved in his community. He has volunteered at many activities including the Wisconsin Agricultural Youth Council, Youth Leadership Board Adams Columbia Electric Cooperative, NHS Red Cross blood drives, FFA & Hilltopper Football Corn Carnival. He also participated in the Student Council highway cleanup, Brie Shed Educational Day, spring cleanup for local communities, Columbia County FFA breakfast, 4H June Dairy Days breakfast, and set up the Dump Run. Growing up on a farm, Ashton has gained hands-on experience in grain handling, crop marketing, and customer relations by working alongside his grandfather and father. As a third-generation farmer, his passion for grain farming stems from the opportunities and work ethic his grandparents instilled in him. These experiences have shown him the importance of hard work, problem-solving, and building relationships in agriculture. His community service experience has made a big impact on life skills, but it has also shown him the importance of being a role model for younger members. Over the past four years, Ashton has built and grown his business, Seed Clean, where he purchases, cleans, and resells bulk seed for cover crops. After graduating high school, he plans to continue expanding his business while attending UW-Platteville for agribusiness with an emphasis on commodity and price analysis to prepare for a career in grain production or agricultural sales.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Through her project, she aimed to educate the community about the importance of being bird-friendly by conducting workshops, creating videos, and providing resources. Adoriam's interest in conservation was sparked by her involvement in the Glenn Miller Agriculture Program, where she connected with professionals in the field.

She conducted workshops teaching people how to make bird feeders and birdhouses from recycled materials and emphasized the importance of turning off lights at night to protect migratory birds. Throughout the episode, Adoriam shares the challenges she faced, including meeting deadlines and managing large events, and how these experiences helped her grow in networking and leadership skills.

N. Guenka (Meditation Teacher) Effect On Emotions I have that observer within me that watches things rising and falling out falling now for a while. For many years in my life, I thought that mindfulness was so that we didn't have to feel our emotions anymore. We didn't have to be in that, I realized, is an ignorance within us. We're supposed to feel fully. But if I feel sorrow fully, but I don't say I am a sad person. It's two different things. Do I identify with the emotions? Or do I allow myself to feel it fully? Thoughts On Breathing Breathing is the great gift. The deep breath, the holding of the breath, the holding the bottom of the breath; all of those are wonderful techniques for us to turn on our parasympathetic nervous system to quiet the mind to let the body know it's safe. So the thoughts of fear that are constantly rising from our physicality, quiet down, and we can access that awareness underneath all the thoughts.   Bullying Story I was bullied in junior high school, I grew very quickly. I was five feet eight inches tall in junior high school. And I was the tallest student and was taller than some of my teachers. I was gawky and had goofy hair. So I came from an elementary school where I was the president of the Student Council was kind of this celebrated person. And then I got into junior high school and got bullied by other girls. It was very painful and a big shock to me that people were cruel that way. And I retreated into myself and so, you know, that stays with you. It's fear, right? Fear of judgment. I think around that time that internal negative voice became a megaphone within me. And it's been something I've fought and tried to understand through my whole life. Now, do I see a benefit of that experience? Quite a bit. It drove me to understanding myself in psychology and spiritual practice. When you can feel another's pain, you can't bully them. And, and when you're bullied, you can see I can look at those girls, and I can see what they were afraid of. I can see where it was coming from. it. It opens empathy. It's only compassion that problems would solve. Suggested Resources Books: Anything by Alan Watts and Robert Thurman Book: Bhagavad Gita As It Is by A. C.
