  Season 2 Episode 6 - I Spent Two Hours Fact Checking A Sitcom 12.10.2026 36分

  I’m new to podcasting and new to this feature. Please be patient with any reply. Thanks. A single, random childhood flashback can feel rock-solid until you try to prove it. We follow one of those stubborn memories, a bizarre moment from an obscure 1980s sitcom called I Married Dora, and treat it like a real investigation: What exactly do we remember, what actually happened on screen, and why did our brain hold onto that scene for decades? Along the way, we turn a nostalgic rabbit hole into ...

  Season 2 Episode 5 - I Built A Song With AI And Questioned Every Step 05.10.2026 44分

  I’m new to podcasting and new to this feature. Please be patient with any reply. Thanks. AI can generate a full song faster than most of us can write a chorus, but that speed creates a new problem: the real work becomes judgment. We put that to the test by trying to build a late 1990s style rap and hip hop anthem celebrating a specific place, using ChatGPT for prompt engineering and lyric writing, then using Music GPT to generate the music itself. What starts as a fun experiment quickly turn...

  Season 2 Episode 4 - Do Not Choose A Major Like You Choose Vacation 28.09.2026 46分

  I’m new to podcasting and new to this feature. Please be patient with any reply. Thanks. Picking a college major can feel like you’re locking in the rest of your life, but we don’t buy that story. We talk through what you’re actually choosing when you choose a major: a set of assumptions, influences, and tradeoffs shaped by parents, professors, friends, fear, money, and whatever you’ve experienced so far. The goal isn’t a perfect decision. It’s a decision you can learn from, adjust, and buil...

  Season 2 Episode 3 - How One Scholarship Prompt Changed My Social Media Habits 21.09.2026 36分

  I’m new to podcasting and new to this feature. Please be patient with any reply. Thanks. I catch myself mid-reaction on social media and realize my words can either add clarity or add noise. I test a simple habit, drafting my thoughts off-platform first, and it changes how I think about time, attention, and my digital footprint. • losing the habit of listening to others and ourselves • a scholarship prompt that forces real digital responsibility • the near-post moment and t...

  Season 2 Episode 2 - What If Being Wrong Is The Safer Choice 14.09.2026 32分

  I’m new to podcasting and new to this feature. Please be patient with any reply. Thanks. A hurricane warning aimed at Los Angeles sounds like a punchline right up until you realize the forecast doesn’t need to be “certain” to change what smart people do. I’m talking through the exact moment I saw a storm track with multiple possible paths, did the math on the odds, and still decided to prepare even knowing the most likely outcome was that nothing would happen. That decision, and the reasonin...

  Season 2 Episode 1 - Critical Thinking On Stage (with Guest Thomas Kellogg) 07.09.2026 48分

  I’m new to podcasting and new to this feature. Please be patient with any reply. Thanks. A rock on a chair shouldn’t be able to teach you anything, but “Stanley” does. We sit down with actor, director, and writer Thomas Dean Kellogg to unpack how critical thinking actually works when you’re building a character, staging a scene, or writing words that have to land with an audience. The surprise is how universal the skill is: it’s choices, it’s preparation, and it’s the courage to commit when ...

  I’m new to podcasting and new to this feature. Please be patient with any reply. Thanks. A quiet dinner turned into a four-hour test of pain, patience, and decision-making after a bone fragment lodged between my molars. We trace the chaos from failed fixes at home to an ER extraction and unpack the simple rules that kept choices clear when stress spiked. • the bite, the crack, and sudden pain • failed floss and flimsy picks at the sink • reacting versus solving under stress • distance and t...

  Episode 5 - I Let A Dime Plan My Trip, It Was Both Chaotic And Weirdly Therapeutic 09.03.2026 32分

  I’m new to podcasting and new to this feature. Please be patient with any reply. Thanks. What happens when a lifelong overplanner hands the wheel to a warped dime? I set out for a simple break and wound up on a cross-country experiment in trust—Los Angeles to Chicago by rail, a snap decision toward Seattle, and a last-minute turn to Las Vegas—while asking whether I was truly surrendering or just outsourcing my fear of the “wrong” choice. We dig into the tension between structure and spontan...

  I’m new to podcasting and new to this feature. Please be patient with any reply. Thanks. We explore how adaptation shapes both learning and communication, from a blind student mastering campus to a deaf parking attendant bridging a gap with pen and paper. We contrast academic and traditional learning and share how an Indigenous lens changes what counts as education. • redefining education through lived adaptation • observing growth without formal instruction • traditional learning versus ac...

  Episode 3 - How Critical Thinking Turns Packing Into A Better Trip 24.02.2026 29分

  I’m new to podcasting and new to this feature. Please be patient with any reply. Thanks. What if the way you pack is shaping the way you think—and the way your trip actually feels? We dive into a practical, mindset-first approach to travel where the bag becomes a tool, not a burden. Instead of rules and checklists, we use clear questions and real tradeoffs to decide between a small backpack, a larger pack, or full luggage across flights, drives, and long-haul trains. We start with the two-q...

  I’m new to podcasting and new to this feature. Please be patient with any reply. Thanks. A stranger on a moving train tried to define me in a single glance—and got it wrong. That awkward moment became a catalyst to rethink how we tie appearance and language to identity, and why our minds reach for labels before we reach for questions. We walk through the story beat by beat, then turn it into a practical guide for using critical thinking in everyday encounters. I share how rides across Los A...

  Episode 1 - Seeing The World With New Eyes 23.02.2026 32分

  I’m new to podcasting and new to this feature. Please be patient with any reply. Thanks. Two people can watch the same scene and leave with different truths—so what bridges that gap? We kick off our new series by trading arguments for attention, asking how culture, place, and personal history shape what we notice, what we miss, and what we assume. As a Native American host from a federally recognized tribe, I share why belonging and borders look different from the 1% of original inhabitants,...
