How did Botox go from terrifying neurotoxin to casual cosmetic treatment? What does that mean for how we think of signs of aging on our bodies? In this episode, host Professor Sally Chivers talks about her evolving personal relationship with Botox, which prompted her to learn more about its history. She explains how that history unfurls story after story of unintended side effects, good and bad. Wrinkles sit on the surface, but how we respond to them goes much deeper. That's why this podcast is called Wrinkle Radio.Wrinkle Radio is a proud member of the Amplify Podcast Network.

Why should we get friendly with death? Dying is inevitably, if ironically, part of life. How can we better support each other, and ourselves, through grief? Death-friendly communities would combine the potential behind compassionate communities with the power of the age-friendly movement. Professor Julia Brassolotto tells host Sally Chivers about how building them could help fight ageism.

This big idea encapsulates so much of what we do in education - as researchers, policy makers and active practitioners within the realm of education - and it is, "How will we teach in a post-pandemic Canada?" Chey and Pav discuss the many ways that they have adjusted to teaching during the pandemic, and also the ways in which teaching might look different when the pandemic is behind us all.

In Episode 99 of The Staffroom Podcast, Chey and Pav talk about the evolution they have gone through in their teaching practice in regards to De-Centring Remembrance Day. In an effort to create an atmosphere where the students and their students are centred with their stories and lived experiences, Chey and Pav think about how they have perhaps been centring a single and dominant narrative in their early years of teaching. Combining their knowledge and understanding of Culturally Relevant and Responsive Pedagogy, they have developed a very meaningful activity that utilizes photography to create digital stories that truly highlight and exemplify the identities of the students.

In Episode 82 of The Staffroom Podcast, Chey and Pav talk about Financial Literacy. It is a topic that has been newly added to the Math Curriculum in Ontario, and many teachers have scrambled on how to teach it, even though many agree that it should be included in the curriculum. What kinds of supports do we need to effectively help students with this topic? How should teachers even go about teaching it when they haven't received any professional development on this topic? Chey and Pav cover a lot of ground with this one!  A rich discussion with several a-ha! moments throughout!
