Chris & Jason discuss the new premium on broadband when traveling, and Jason talks about the new shiny things he sees in the evening sky over Sydney. Chris then quizzes Jason on the worst 7 things parents can do to young athletes.
Then the two switches to their interview with Jenn Heinrich, CEO of Girls Rugby, Inc. and former Executive Director of Rugby Oregon from 2002-2019, developing America's first youth and High School State Rugby organization—a model that 46 other states have emulated.
Jenn talks about how she discovered Rugby and some of the benefits of youth Rugby, including some of its unique benefits in the sports community. The three then get into a deeper conversation about the success of Rugby Oregon, intentionally teaching life skills that make better citizens.
Jason apologizes to listeners for not landing the interview with Lesley McKenzie this week (in Japanese!), gets a crash course on Americanized surnames, and then tackles a quiz on education and colleges. Then the two speak to Sydney University's Michael Anderson, Ph.D., about how even though education is a shadow of what it could be, there are ways to transform it that are happening now. ...
Chris gives Jason a quiz on conspiracy theories, and then the two answer the first listener question of 2021, "Why do people believe in conspiracy theories?" The two then interview retired Clinical Psychologist and Past President of the American Society of Trial Consultants, Doug Keene, Ph.D. Doug drops some wisdom about the structures and motivations at play and then shares a way to talk to people you care about who have a very different view of truth than you do. ...
Chris, Jason, and Christy pick up where they left off and somehow transition from race inequities in maternal care to noir movies in Nordic countries. Christy describes the good news of how the current Presidential administration is approaching maternal healthcare and takes on a myth to debunk before describing Every Mother Counts' "special sauce." Then the three talk about coming out of the pandemic and some of the good things that come with them, including Christy going to a baseball game to see Chris's favorite team, the San Francisco Giants. Chris and Jason catch up after the interview, befuddled by the realization that Maternal health was such a problem in the first place. Then the two rant about the problems with guns in America and gambling in Australia. Chris shares some Good News and the two discuss the next episode with Doug Keene.
