“The youngest has to adapt to whatever is going on in the family.” It's time to talk about the baby of the family! Andie and Angie are both the youngest children in their families. They are even in a "Youngest Club" with their Uncle Jeff! So, what's the lowdown on these youngest siblings? Well, they are risk-takers, outgoing, fun-loving, and the life of the party. But let's be real, they face some challenges too. They have to keep up with their older siblings' packed schedules and extracurricular activities. Now, here's the scoop from the research mamas – they say the youngest children in the family are 'spoiled.' Angie does not agree with that research… in fact, she rejects it completely. You definitely want to hear the debate that Andie and Angie have because Andie seems to side with the research. It's hilarious and authentic at the same time. One thing Andie and Angie do agree on is that most parents relax their parenting style the more kids they have. By the time the youngest one is born, they are pretty much raising themselves. It's a good thing youngest children are so charming.

“Soapbox on the Spectrum.” The thing about an unscripted podcast is that you never know where the conversation will go. In this episode of Mother Funny, Andie and Angie begin talking about what moms go through during the first year of their baby's life, and end the podcast discussing Autism. Their conversation is real, authentic, honest, and helpful. Andie and Angie want to encourage you as you walk through the journey of your baby's first year. You are part of their Mom Squad. There are so many different things to stress about during your baby's first year of life. You might even be struggling with Decision Fatigue and not know it. In an instance your life completely changes. Your hobbies, social life, and/or your career can change. One minute you're pregnant, and the next thing you know you're worried about which brand of formula to buy, or when your baby should start solid foods. It's a time of transition and confusion. For some moms it can be a difficult adjustment… and that's okay. You're not alone Mama. And if you are worried about your baby meeting all of those milestones make sure to talk to your pediatrician. There's no stigmatizing here– just love, support, and understanding.This episode is dedicated to Uncle Jeff! One of the funniest people Andie and Angie know. Youngest Team Forever!
Bible Reading: John 6:5-14"I know we're supposed to share the good news of Jesus with people wherever we are, like Pastor Bowers said today," Braden told his mom. "But it's too hard to do that in my class at school.""Why do you say that?" asked Mom, scooping up some rice."Well, there are thirty kids in my class, and as far as I know, Flynn and I are the only Christians. What can just two of us do?" Braden broke off and sniffed appreciatively. "What's cooking?""Chicken curry," said Mom.Braden frowned. "I don't remember having it before. Do I like it?""I think you'll like it," said Mom. "Aunt Alicia and Uncle Jeff are coming over for lunch. We're having chicken curry and rice." She put rice in a pan and added water.Braden looked at the small grains that lay at the bottom of the pan. "That won't be enough rice to feed everybody!" he said. "Uncle Jeff eats lots, and I do too. I know I like rice." He was hungry and didn't want to run out of food. "It will be plenty," Mom assured him. "You'll see."When Mom called Braden to come in for lunch, he decided to check the rice. He lifted the lid of the pan and peeked inside. "Wow!" he said in surprise. "I knew rice swelled when it was cooked, but I didn't think it would make that much!" Braden eyed his mom suspiciously. "Did you add more rice after I went outside?"Mom smiled. "Of course not. A small amount of rice can feed quite a few people.""Yeah, I guess so!" said Braden. "It's like Jesus feeding all those people with five loaves of bread and two fish." "Not quite!" Mom said, laughing. "But I think you and Flynn can be like rice.""Like rice?" Braden repeated. "What do you mean?""A small amount of rice, after it's boiled, fills a whole pan," Mom explained. "Don't you think a couple of Christians, filled and boiling over with the Holy Spirit, can reach out to a whole classroom of kids who need to know Jesus loves them?""Oh," said Braden. He smiled. "Yeah, I guess they could." -Tanya FerdinanduszHow About You?Do you sometimes think there's nothing you can do to help more people know about Jesus? Do you feel like you're too small, too young, too shy, or too badly outnumbered to make a difference? Remember, if Jesus could use one boy's lunch of five loaves and two small fish to feed more than five thousand people, He can also use kids today to reach people with the good news of the gospel. Trust Him to help you reach out and share His love with others.Today's Key Verse:I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. (NKJV) (Philippians 4:13)Today's Key Thought:God can use you

Has someone ever asked you to pull their finger? Don't worry, we're not talking about that dastardly trick (never again, Uncle Jeff). Nay, today we pull the curtain back on one of the most recognized idioms in our blessed English language: “pulling the strings”. “That one's easy,” you say. “I don't need to listen to this episode, I already know the origin!” Well, get off yer high horse, partner. Come on down and sit by the camp fire with ole' Danny, Tommy, and Travy and enjoy a can of baked beans as we serenade the ear canals with our charming and enlightening banter. And if anyone asks you to pull their finger, DON'T DO IT. Enjoy that last episode of season 2 and listen to the end of the episode to hear a special guest!
Bible Reading: Psalm 55:1-2; James 5:13-16"Uncle Jeff is finally out of the hospital," Mom told Nathan as they were setting the table. "Isn't that great? Aunt Kate's going to bring him here for something to eat before he goes home."Nathan's stomach churned. He bit his lip and shrugged. Uncle Jeff had been in a serious accident. He remembered Mom's face pale with worry when they'd heard the news. Everyone had prayed for Uncle Jeff, but part of his leg had to be amputated. Soon he would be fitted with an artificial one. Sadness welled up inside Nathan, then anger. Why didn't God save Uncle Jeff's leg? he wondered. Is it my fault? Maybe I didn't pray the right way or hard enough. The door sprang open as his aunt and uncle arrived. Uncle Jeff limped across the room on his crutches and sat down at the table. During dinner, Nathan could hardly eat anything. He tried to smile as everyone chatted away. His uncle winked at him, and then the hot tears fell."What's wrong?" Uncle Jeff asked, concerned."Oh, Uncle Jeff," said Nathan, rushing over to sit near him. "Please forgive me. It's not fair. I prayed for you--everyone at church did--but you still lost part of your leg." Nathan wiped tears from his eyes. "My prayers weren't answered. God didn't listen. I should have prayed harder!"Uncle Jeff squeezed his hand. "Oh, Nathan, God always hears your prayers--and those prayers were answered in a wonderful way. You think your prayers haven't been heard because I now need a prosthetic leg, but they were. I'm blessed! I almost died, but God saved me, and now I have a new start. It will take lots of physical therapy to learn to walk with my new leg, but it won't stop me from doing the things I love." He smiled at Nathan. "I know it won't be easy, but Jesus will help me through it. And even though I lost part of my leg, it won't be this way forever. I'll get my leg back when Jesus returns and gives me my resurrection body!" Smiling through his tears, Nathan hugged his precious uncle. Thank You, Jesus, for listening after all, he prayed silently. Then he returned to his seat, ready to eat some delicious food for this special celebration. -Cindy LeeHow About You?Are you worried about someone who is sick? Do you wonder if God hears your prayers for that person? Remember that Jesus loves us so much He died and rose again so we could have eternal life with Him. He loves you and understands what you're going through. Even when He doesn't answer our prayers the way we expect, He hears us and promises to be with us. Keep praying and trust in Him.Today's Key Verse:And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. (NLT) (1 John 5:14)Today's Key Thought:God hears our prayers
GOD HEARS OUR PRAYERSKEY VERSE: AND WE ARE CONFIDENT THAT HE HEARS US WHENEVER WE ASK FOR ANYTHING THAT PLEASES HIM. 1 JOHN 5:14 (NLT)

December 29th-30th 1922: General Manager John Reith begins work! The good ship Broadcasting finally gets its captain. On Episode 35 of The British Broadcasting Century, we bring you the complete tale of not only Reith's first day - the liftsman, the lone office, the "Dr Livingstone, I presume" moment - but also his commute to work, from Scotland to London via Newcastle. Here he investigates/interviews/interrogates poor Tom Payne, director of Newcastle 5NO, a BBC station that's only five days old, temporarily running from the back of a lorry in a stable-yard. We'll hear from Reith, Payne (who claims to be the only person to bank-roll a British radio station), Birmingham director Percy Edgar, early BBC governor Mary Agnes Hamitlon. Plus we'll hear from Mark Carter of BBC Radio Sussex, BBC Radio Surrey, Susy Radio, Wey Valley Radio, across which he's been presenter, producer and now Executive Editor. There's also a treasure trove of radio memoribilia including 'the green book' of what you can and can't say on the radio - in 1948 - courtesy of the collection of former BBC Head of Heritage Justin Phillips. We're ever so grateful to his family for sharing that with us. SHOWNOTES: This episode leans on several books, the chief of which is probably Garry Alligan's 1938 book Sir John Reith, but also Asa Briggs' various books, Brian Hennessy's The Emergence of Broadcasting in Britain, and The Reith Diaries edited by Charles Stuart. Plus about a dozen others. Join us on Patreon for a tour of my radio history bookshelf, plus extras, audio, video, an occasional reading from C.A.

The 6-week-old BBC now has 4 plucky stations! Yes, the Geordies have joined the Cockneys the Brummies and the Mancunians... Except 5NO Newcastle has had a few teething troubles. No one there's run a radio station before! So on Christmas Eve Eve 1922, their first is broadcast from the back of a lorry in a stableyard. But fear not, with Christmas behind us, Head Office are on the case! And the BBC's first and only General Manager John Reith is well-rested, he's even asked a friend what broadcasting is, and he reckons he's ok to take control. He's always liked fishing. That's what broadcasting is... isn't it? THIS TIME... Still puzzling out what his job is, John Reith begins work! We've got all the info on his legendary first day, his ‘Dr Livingstone I presume' moment... and his first task of running the Beeb: fixing Newcastle. He seeks to inform, educate and entertain, but first troubleshoot. Plus bang up to date, we'll hear from a man with radio in his very fibre... local radio executive editor and presenter, from BBC Radio Sussex and BBC Radio Surrey, and Susy Radio, and Wey Valley Radio... Mark Carter As we mark the start of the Reith era, buckle up, it's going to be a bumpy ride. Here on the BBCentury TITLES Hullo, hullo... We've seen a few eps ago, how Reith, and Burrows, and Anderson and Lewis were all hired as the first 4 founding fathers at the BBC. But they start work at New Year. Of course, we know that those of them who were broadcasters, Burrows and Lewis – they were already workig super-hard, planning and presenting almost 7 days a week, even through Christmas. But the start of the BBC's new era, with a head office at Magnet House, till Savoy Hill opened, all of this happens after Christmas 1922, going into New Year 1923. So this ep, I'll tell you about Reith's first day, Dec 29th. Next episode, we'll round off with a rather sweet New Year's Eve bit of programming. Then I think we'll have a bit of a recap and a breather, before starting 1923 proper, when the BBC exploded into life, with a booming staff, the first proper live concerts from the royal opera house, and so much more. What a tale! What an era! I wish I was there. I can't be, so next best thing, I'll spend a pandemic researching and recording this... The BBCe, now with the first day of work from John Reith! STING But before he starts in London, we're going super-geeky, super0detailed, and I'll actually tell you about Reith's JOURNEY to London. Because that's really notable too. Having been appointed, and spent a day or two with Burrows and co, scouting for offices, puzzling out what broadcasting is, Reith has spent Christmas in Scotland, staying with his mum... “I told her that I wanted her to live to see me a knight anyhow. I feel if this job succeeds and I am given grace to succeed in it, I might nt be so far off this. I do want a title for dear mother's sake, and Muriel's...” That from Reith's diary, Dec 28th 1922. So he's keen on this job, for the authoritative position it gives him, it seems, to begin with, at least. He's turned down good deputy jobs before this point. He wanted to lead something. Anything. Even a thing he doesn't understand. Here's a snapshot what Reith would have been completely unaware was on that Christmas, on each of the BBC's stations: We told you all about the London Christmas last time, but from Boxing Day, you'd hear more from the brand new 2LO Orchestra, and a triumphant Boxing Day Peter Pan, Uncle Jeff and Uncle Arthur holding the fort, rewarded with many gifts from the listeners. Demand for radio sets outstripped supply. The radio boom was booming. In Brum: Percy Edgar gives his Dickens, artistes don't turn up. Callout on air. Frederick Warrander turned up, with his pianist! Manc: Christmas stories for kids, then grownups, Handel's Messiah, ghost stories Newcastle: Hawaiian band Then there's 2MT Writtle, who've had the week off for Christmas – that's not a BBC station, but they've done the groundwork earlier in the year, and now Peter Eckersley is there pondering whether he should keep going, in this Marconi station out in Essex, now that proper broadcasting has begun – and the big boss is on his way to start work. So Friday 29th December, Reith says bye mum, I'll come back when I'm knighted, and leaves Dunardoch for London – raring to start work the next day, a Saturday, but he wanted to get in before his small staff turns up after the weekend. But, his Director of Progs Arthur Burrows, who knows more than almost anyone about how all this runs, he's asked his boss to make a stopover en route to Magnet House in London. Burrows wants Reith to get off the train at Newcastle, and check in on the baby station, 5NO. We talked about their launch last time – so at this point it's only 5 days old, and it's the first BBC station to be built from scratch. Burrows has his doubts about the Newcastle staff. New station director Payne is out on a limb, setting up this new station in the northeast – with the smallest, most abandoned staff.... Probably adding to Burrows' doubts were Tom Payne's announcing habits: he kept repeating the callsign over and over: ‘This is 5NO calling, this is 5NO calling, this is 5NO calling...” Payne was popular locally already in amateur radio circles – but would he have the chops to broadcast nationally, on radio? To fit in, with what Burrows had set in motion? Reith's a bit reluctant to break his journey in Newcastle. Doesn't quite see why. Doesn't quite know what a radio station is. But he's quite keen to see one in action – although Newcastle's version is a stableyard, so not really your typical radio station... ‘Newcastle at 12:30. Here I really began my BBC responsibility. Saw transmitting station and studio place and landlords. It was very interesting. Away at 4:28, London at 10:10, bed at 12:00. I am trying to keep in close touch with Christ in all I do and I pray he may keep close to me. I have a great work to do.' Reith is dumbfounded. He's got off the train, and found Tom Payne alternating between announcing what's on the radio, playing some live musical instruments, and trying to shut up a howling dog in a nearby kennel. So did he let Mr Payne off the hook? “As the temporary Station Director knew more than I did, as he had produced programmes of some kind or another for 5 days already... I rather naturally left him in possession for the time being.” As for the tech setup in Newcastle, that doesn't improve too quickly. Reith will be shocked in the New Year of '23 to discover their new control room is in fact a standard public phone box installed in the middle of the studio. Forget the engineer through the glass. This was an engineer in the glass, in a glass box, closed in from before the programme started till after it finished, no ventilation, no seat, no dignity. Come January, Reith would personally seek new premises for those provincial stations that were lacking. Eventually. For now though, on Dec 29th, Reith leaves Newcastle, after a stopover of less than 4hrs, and continues to London. So Reith has arrived in London, slept off his train journey, and awoken ready for his first day at the BBC. London at 10:10, bed at 12:00. I am trying to keep in close touch with Christ in all I do and I pray he may keep close to me. I have a great work to do.' At 9am that Saturday, Reith arrives at the GEC offices in Kingsway, London. “where I had been informed temporary accommodation had been at our disposal.” This is Magnet House., first offices of the BBC. He has doubts what he'll find, but is pleased to see a large notice in the foyer: “Brit Broad Company, 2nd floor” “This was rather reassuring. One was therefore not altogether unexpected and there really was such a thing as the BBC. Before I was permitted to enter the elevator, an enquiry was naturally made regarding my business. ‘BBC', I said deliberately. “Nobody there yet, sir,” he replied. So I told him that this was it, or part of it, one quarter approximately.” How delightfully drole, of both Reith and the liftsman. “A room about 30fr by 15, furnished with 3 long tables and some chairs. A door at one end invited examination: a tiny compartment 6ft sq, here a table and a chair, also a telephone. ‘This,' I thought, ‘is the general manager's office'. The door swung to behind me. I wedged it open; sat down, surveyed the emptiness of the outer office. Though various papers had accumulated in the past fortnight, I had read them all before. No point in pretending to be busy with no one to see.” It's an unusual start for Reith then, still a little clueless as to what's required of him. He needs his staff to arrive before he can quite figure out what to do, how to run this BBC. So he picks up the phone, a bit like Manuel when he briefly takes charge of Fawlty Towers. “Manuel Towers! How are you today!” Or Alan Partridge picking up the hotel phone to find he's reached reception. In Reith's case, he's delighted a female voice answers. Yes? “Having been unexpectedly answered, I trued hurriedly to think of a number which at 9:15am I might be properly expected to call up, on BBC business. Naturally without success. As there was no BBC business to anything with. So I enquired, somewhat fatuously, and with some embarrassment, if she had had any intrusctions about calls for the BBC or from them, and that if so, the BBC was there.” Now. Just. This receptionist would connect many calls to R over the coming months, and years, Miss Isobel Shields. Reith was a fan of Mr Gamage of the GEC. He was not a fan of Major Anderson, his new, brief secretary. 1/2hr later, Major Anderson, Sec, arrived 9:30am, “with some manifestation of authority”. Silk hat, two attache cases, legal-looking books under his arm. Reith described it as a bit “Livingstone and Stanley”, each presumed the other was the Secretary or General Manager. ‘I hadn't seen him before. It was an awful shock. I saw at once that he would never do... Conversation was not brisk...” Then Mr Gamage, Secretary of the GEC, lovely welcoming fella. For 10 weeks, Gamage sees to their every need, and refuses all offer of payment for the room, lunch, tea, phone calls. GEC's guest. That night Major Anderson the Sec goes home to type a letter, to invite Miss Isobel Shields to stop working for General Electric, be poached by the BBC, and become one of the first six staff members, and the first female employee. Next time: New Year 1922!

Merry Christmas from your friendly neighborhood Jew. While I don't celebrate the religious aspect of the holiday, I do enjoy the holiday spirit. And in 2020, whatever brings you joy - do it.My tip of the week - using your smartphone as a webcam. Now again, I'm more focused on the audio side of things, but there will always be some folks who want a video component. So I've been working with Abel Grunfeld and the folks at Riverside FM to begin offering this to my clients. When I started, I wasn't wild about my new HP laptop's built in webcam, nor the USB one that I got on Amazon. Well, turns out, the best camera I own is my iPhone Xs. And there are apps that will allow you to sync your smartphone to your laptop and use that as a camera. I've done some testing, and now my video quality can match the audio quality in my studio. Abel recommended Camo for Mac users. For Windows, I like an app called iVCam. There's a free version, but the high end version was a one time cost of only about 25 bucks.Next week, I'll do a look back at 2020 and a look ahead to 2021 in terms of podcasting, but for now, some quick news tidbits if you're looking to plug in your headphones and get some "me time" over the holiday. Incidentally, that's what tell new clients. Everyone's burnt out on Zoom, so give them a podcast and a chance to walk away from their screen.Speaking of families, nice primer by Lindsay Harris Friel from The Podcast Host for how to deal with different family members as it relates to your podcasting career. Those relatives include the "I Don't Get It," the "Reckless Cheerleader," the "Unintentional Underminer," the "Intentional Underminer," and of course "The Partner." Lindsay breaks down each of these types, and how to deal with them. https://www.thepodcasthost.com/mindset/what-my-family-thinks-of-podcasting/Is spoken word audio cutting into music streaming? An article in no less than Billboard suspects that may be the case. While music streaming subscribers are up, time spent listening is flat. Also, the article cites research from Edison that spoken word streaming was up 20% from 2014 to 2019 - with music down 5%, and that's before the pandemic and 2020 Election Cycle. https://www.billboard.com/articles/business/9500546/streaming-music-growth-stalled-factors-attention-economyI opened this show talking about audio producers wanting to include video, but turns out, the opposite is also true. There's a big video producer...wanting to do audio. Netflix, after months of rumors, has debuted an audio-only mode on their Android app. The idea is you can "watch" a show by just listening to dialogue and narration. Not sure if this will take off, but if Netflix is taking notice of audio consumption, that's worth noting.If you like this show, please feel free to share it with a fellow podcast enthusiast - that will help it grow.
