Podcasts about toughen up

This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, happy Wednesday!! We open with a very important announcement: it's REST DAY (Harrison's rest day lol but maybe all of you could join him), which somehow spirals into a real debate: is "downhill" positive or negative?! (If you're running, downhill is great. If your week is going downhill…? you see the problem.) Then Jules brings a word from the people: collective effervescence.. the term for that shared-energy magic that happened at Wrigley (and at every Fenway “Sweet Caroline”, and every Coldplay "Fix You”). We're working it into daily (or bi-annual) rotation. Plus Alex reveals her special power: she wakes up in the middle of the night and just KNOWS what time it is (psychic or circadian? The chair delivery prediction says psychic), and we realize we are officially living in the "late 20s" of the century.. which sends us straight into Y2K pandemonium and what our 4-11-year-old brains thought was happening in 1999 hahaha Then the home front: the kids book gift tip we're stealing forever (find your kid's favorite book and keep copies on hand as gifts.. Going to Sleep on the Farm is out of print but on ThriftBooks for $6!!), the universal truth that when a toddler is awake they are AWAKE, and Tate's new bit: calling Alex.. Alex. She thinks it's hilarious. Then a segment your comments built: cities have MIDDLE names?! Chicago Marie. Cincinnati Eileen. Atlanta Nicole. We're solidifying Austin Riley.. comment your city's middle name, we need them all. And another follow up from the video game convo: where does drinking after work fall on the scale?! We get into it honestly AND share our rule for drinking as new parents: one parent is ALWAYS the metaphorical DD. Meaning one of us is ALWAYS sober enough to legally drive.. because you're on duty for the kids, and in an emergency you might literally need to drive. Simple, non-negotiable, works. And in wedding world: 818 Tequila is sponsoring weddings (no contracts, no posting requirements, just vibes.. genius or too far?), and OUR wedding planning continues: it's officially a seated dinner, and Harrison's dream late-night sponsor is DoorDash hahaha We close with the lightning round of internet topics: Dyson made a $499 TOOTHBRUSH (we started at sticker shock and talked ourselves into it.. if it touches your body twice a day!), gym bros discovered the pink tax, a new app that sends your texts by virtual carrier pigeon (110mph, and a 0.2% chance your message literally dies mid-flight.. we're obsessed), and a closing pep talk: we all need to TOUGHEN UP. A cup of coffee cannot ruin your day!! Hope everyone is having a great week :-) LOVE YOU GUYS! Timestamps: 00:00:00 Welcome back to Two Parents & A Podcast! 00:00:01 It's rest day!!

This week on The KOKO Show we are joined by one of the hardest men in All Blacks history. A blinding back-rower that made a living snapping necks, cashing cheques and hoisting silverware. It is of course the Manawatu Monster and still the middleweight champion of all of our hearts, it is the one and only Mr Chris Masoe. With Masi in tow the lads discuss the 2026 Hurricanes and how they will go about getting the choccies this weekend against the Chiefs in the Super Rugby Final. They also yarn about the best back-row Masi ever played with, their time in Toulon together and what it was like going from professional rugby to professional boxing. Plus, Goit has a little fun with Masi about how after 10 years of living in France, his French never got better and his English actually got worse.In the second half of the show the boys break a box of Australian Rugby collectors cards all thanks to TGI, we also debut a new segment called ‘Swopp Will Sort It' and the lads do a full run of all the footy action coming out of the Northern Hemisphere. Finally, the boys chat about their upcoming Wallabies House Live Show on the 4th of July and Drew goes on a true spiritual journey about his absolute love for sport. So sit back, relax, whip out a kebab and really enjoy the highlights of the mighty Socceroos feeding Turkiye at the FIFA World Cup. It is time now for an all new episode of Kick Offs and Kick Ons.

EDITORIAL: Can I ask a simple question this morning? At what point does being prepared become being overprotective? Now before anyone jumps on me and has a crack at me, let me make one thing crystal clear. Safety comes first. If lives are genuinely at risk, authorities should act. Nobody wants to see people injured or killed because someone was too slow to make a decision. And I'm certainly not suggesting we ignore severe weather. In fact, the latest figures show between March 2025 and the end of February this year, we had a damaging storm every eight days on average. More than 33,000 insurance claims were lodged for flooding, wind and storm damage. The risks are real. But Wellington has now been through another state of emergency over predicted waves and high winds, and the reality is that what was forecast simply did not eventuate. Mayor Andrew Little himself acknowledged that the predicted conditions "hadn't materialised.” There had been no reports of major damage. The state of emergency has now been lifted. So, my concern now is: are we becoming too quick to shut the city down? I did some rough calculations this morning, because this whole thing concerns me greatly. Wellington's economy is worth around $56 billion a year. Spread that across a normal working year and you're talking about roughly $200 million of economic activity every weekday. Even if only 10 or 20 percent of that is disrupted because people stay home, businesses close, customers disappear and workers can't get into the city, that's potentially tens of millions of dollars affected. Yesterday I walked into a well-known clothing store in the CBD and asked how it was going, didn't even think about the state of emergency. The answer? They hadn't had a single customer all morning. Is that because of the weather? Maybe partly. The weather was fine in the city. Is it because the city was under a state of emergency? I'd bet dollars to donuts that played a major role. If you're told your city is in a state of emergency, you're probably not heading into town to buy a new jacket. Then think about the ripple effects— Parents scrambling with childcare, employees worried about getting home and small businesses, already battered by years of economic hardship, losing yet another trading day. Preparation and resilience are good things. Panic is not. And here's the other thing. We are Wellingtonians. We are proud to be Wellingtonians. We live in one of the windiest capitals in the world. Windy Wellington. We know what a southerly look like, and some of us actually love southerlies. We know what big seas look like. We live on a coast. Storms are part of living here. Meanwhile, Wellington Airport remained open and aircraft continued landing. State of emergency and our major international airport was open. Life carried on, in many respects. But in the back of everyone of everyone's minds: state of emergency. Panic, panic, panic. Of course, authorities acted on the advice they had, and Mayor Little has defended the decision by pointing to the destructive 2020 storms and the uncertainty of forecasting. I'm not saying what we did was wrong, I'm saying do we need to be more careful. There will also be a review of the declaration, and that's exactly as it should be. But perhaps we need a wider conversation. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Piping hot drama

A jury in Los Angeles found that media giants Meta and YouTube were liable for designing their apps in a way that hooked young users in an addictive manner. It came right after a similar ruling in New Mexico, which found Meta is harming children's mental health and safety. Host Caryn Ceolin speaks to Arturo Bejar, a former security executive at Meta who turned into a whistleblower after his very own daughter was subjected to sexual online harassment. The two discuss whether or not these media giants are following through with their commitment to protect children, and what this case could mean for the dozens across North America. We love feedback at The Big Story, as well as suggestions for future episodes. You can find us:Through email at hello@thebigstorypodcast.ca Or @thebigstory.bsky.social on Bluesky

A Saskatoon researcher is working on a new project to try and build winter-resistant roadways. Dr. Haithem Soliman, associate professor of civil, geological and environmental engineering at the University of Saskatchewan (USask), is partnering with the City of Saskatoon to look for ways to build roads that cold temperatures will have less of an impact on. He joins Evan to discuss what his research will look like.

Sam Graham-Felsen was not a tough child. He feared violence and didn't feel that he could stand up for himself when he was bullied. His fear ate away at his confidence; he was afraid to go on dates, afraid to try hard in school. As an adult, he thought he had moved past those fears. But then he started to notice some of those same tendencies in his young son. Sam wanted to change that, so he took his son on a cross-country road trip to Badlands National Park, in search of what Theodore Roosevelt called “the strenuous life.” Along the way, he found himself wrestling with what it means to be a good man, and to raise a good man.This week on “Modern Love,” Sam explains what happened, and how his son changed his own ideas about what it means to be tough.You can read Sam's original story in The New York Times Magazine.“Modern Love” wants to hear from you.

Isabelle and David welcome back Marcus Soutra, co-founder of Eye to Eye and founder of For the Good Consulting, and ask an interesting question of this nation-wide advocacy expert and fellow ADHD and LD-er: how has life in schools changed for neurodivergent kids, especially now that some of us are parents/educators/in charge? Are kids still afraid, as David was, of having to go to the nurses' office? And how has what's "cool" been redefined in the past decades? From trauma modes to collared shirts, from shifting ADHD from a diagnosis to an identity, the three explore perspectives on masking (AKA using energy to appear as neurotypical), which can be both a poison and a salve.----David wonders, given that Marcus travels across the continental United States…what is he seeing as patterns in neurodivergent culture? Marcus describes that he sees the elder millennials having kids who are now being identified as being neurodivergent, and naming, “The trauma ends with me,” and they're refusing to hand this off to the next generation, and because a generation that grew up with these labels are now turning into parents, school leaders, caregivers, people in charge. David likens this to growing up in an earlier generation where he was taught to toughen up, to take the knocks and handle it. Isabelle relates this to how when you're living in survival mode, you can't also be processing the trauma and making meaning of it, you first have to survive—and part of survival mode is to have tunnel vision, to stay tough, to not pause to feel. So it would make sense for a generation that maybe always was in survival mode to try to pass that on to their kids in the form of “toughen up.” She relates to wanting to break this cycle, though, so hard, as a parent. And also—what does David mean by the “boy named Sue” generation? (Answer: it's a reference to a Johnny Cash song, see below). Marcus describes how this compares to other movements, where something that used to be a diagnosis or label is then taken back as an identity. As he has ADHD, he was hoping this change would happen so much faster, in his small, privileged ND community this change happened so rapidly. It does take these generational shifts and changes to make these things stick. David names that individually, we all have individual struggles that rub up against the system. It felt like school was meant to take parts of us away, it was like an eraser trying to shave parts off. But we are be keepers of that. In school there was no concept of advocating for an accommodation, it was just: do you want to look weird? Leaving class early to go get his meds. How has this changed for kids and adults? It's hard to generalize because “you know one neurodivergent person, you know one neurodivergent person.” But having an open conversation about something and talk about it and acknowledge and not other it—it does set it up for students to have a teacher they can talk to and ask for what they need (even one adult in that building). The needle has moved from the average high schooler even knowing what dyslexia/ADHD/any ND or LD is. Marcus wasn't bummed out about dyslexic, but back in high school, it was other people were going to see him being different. He refused to get accommodations for the third time, because if he got accommodations for it, he wouldn't take the SAT at the same time. Isabelle remembers that as a full body memory, taking the SAT being a production back in the day and even in her own experience being bussed on the short bus into a different school for a Gifted program and how it signaled you were different but also you didn't want to belong to this select tribe, either.  David names: different is dangerous in some ways, not just for kids but for adults, too. You walk into a room and everyone is wearing a blue “I'm here for a reason” shirt and you might slowly back out of the room and go “I don't belong.” Trying to be like everyone else is both the salve and the poison—it helps keep us save when we're masking—what does everyone else is doing? It helps us mask, but David's first time being a room where people admitted they were neurodivergent, Grady was bouncing a racket ball, the relief and joy you feel when you can join in being more authentically yourself. Isabelle is thinking of the “Cool Bean” book (see below) and how in that story, the beans are ‘cool' not just because they are performing as cool and have style and whatnot, but also because they are willing to take risks and help those who are being bullied or laughed at, that are able to stand up for others and themselves in a way. This is so different than ‘coolness' as Isabelle experienced it in her little bubble growing up in suburban Chicago, where coolness felt way more about avoiding being targeting and felt meaner and scarier and more about social power and wielding it (with meanness). Marcus names how his masking helped him in a way; he didn't know if he could get away with getting into trouble so he would know how to appear wearing a collared shirt and combed hair and befriend his teachers so that he would get on their good side. David describes how with ‘coolness,' it could be more about performing as if, rather than actually being it—like Marcus wasn't actually friends with his teachers but he had the appearance of it, and how often we take those appearances of coolness and roll with it. Isabelle wonders—what about the privilege of masking? Like the way people who mask more easily and slot into neurotypical expectations have privileges and also—‘detecting' what's cool? And what about how much of coolness, at least for a time, was defined by money, or access to certain expensive clothing brands (like Abercrombie and Fitch) What it means to perform as if you are confident in who you are, Johnny Cash's “Boy Named Sue” (live at San Quentin, 1969)Cool Beans book (by Jory John) read aloud (by Harper Kids)Smart Cookie (also by Jory John) read aloud (by Magical Little Minds) about learning differences/neurospicyness according to Isabelle"White Hot: The Rise and Fall of Abercrombie and Fitch" (Netflix documentary)------Cover Art by: Sol VázquezTechnical Support by: Bobby Richards

JACKSON, Miss. (WLBT) - The ruling on the case Grants Pass Vs. Johnson is the biggest decision on homelessness America has seen at a national level in decades. It gives some power back to the cities to establish their own punishments for people sleeping and camping outside. But will it fix the problem? One Jackson homelessness organization doesn't think so. “If a city decides to exercise its right to penalize somebody for their position in life. That's a terrible place to be,” Andre Devine, Executive Director of Hearts for the Homeless, said. Devine couldn't believe the Supreme Court's decision to allow cities to create their own punishments for those who sleep or camp in public places.
