Extra Bit - Christian Surfers

Garden in Kerrville - 08 - With Educator/Facilitator/Artists Carly DW Bones & Zach Bones

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2395800/open_sms] In this final episode of the Ballad of Dena & Andrea I read a bit from the old bible and wonder about our current institutions for mental health and our sick carceral system.  I speak with two folks who've worked in various positions as educators and facilitators in restorative justice, sex education, and art programs.   I'll mention the fund that Andrea started with her lawyer to support mental health of young mothers. It is linked below as well... The song is a fictional POV from Andrea inside the Kerrville, TX mental institution.  Show Links Article: Sorrow and the Shame of the Accidental Killer  [https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/09/18/the-sorrow-and-the-shame-of-the-accidental-killer] Restorative Justice Definition: https://www.vera.org/ [https://www.vera.org/] The L.A. jail system is the largest mental health institution in the U.S. https://www.vera.org/news/for-decades-los-angeles-jailed-people-with-mental-health-needs-now-its-finally-prioritizing-treatment [https://www.vera.org/news/for-decades-los-angeles-jailed-people-with-mental-health-needs-now-its-finally-prioritizing-treatment] Homeboy Industries [https://homeboyindustries.org/] adrienne maree brown [https://adriennemareebrown.net/] & a list of her books we mention * Pleasure Activism [https://bookshop.org/p/books/pleasure-activism-the-politics-of-feeling-good-adrienne-maree-brown/10731855?gad_source=1&gclid=CjwKCAiAlPu9BhAjEiwA5NDSA0AtZSXzJ5_p9CEEPdGmCDv-VRJ4VZP9LhKLf34x8nQFCGeeIJ_SvhoCg4wQAvD_BwE] * Emergent Strategy [https://bookshop.org/p/books/emergent-strategy-shaping-change-changing-worlds-adrienne-maree-brown/10730965?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjw0_WyBhDMARIsAL1Vz8tYhZ6tvwtHq1qgoFPzl3ZlTpZgVcmwJX_r2LW5dHaZRTFLmGdmvZwaAuoiEALw_wcB] * We Will Not Cancel Us  [https://adriennemareebrown.net/book/we-will-not-cancel-us/] Octavia Butler: Parable of the Sower [https://bookshop.org/p/books/parable-of-the-sower-octavia-e-butler/19767724?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjw_-GxBhC1ARIsADGgDjuzaFNXHJg8R5W3SPtBKx78H2W0TB_TW8UbfugPb8uccMWx75kvbxEaAi-rEALw_wcB] Dory Midnight [https://dorimidnight.com/about/] The Witch Wave Podcast with Pam Grossman [https://witchwavepodcast.com/] Nicole Brewer - Anti-Racist Theatre [https://www.nicolembrewer.com/]: “The grace to speak in draft and the responsibility to edit if it is harmful" Fumbling Toward Repair [https://bookshop.org/p/books/fumbling-towards-repair-a-workbook-for-community-accountability-facilitators-mariame-kaba/7894057?gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQjw9vqyBhCKARIsAIIcLMF9LKMqQb46HYfyvqPsKdlKqlLewC3xiUHVE6UCP3BG7tuw8iR9VUIaApaUEALw_wcB] Ballad of Dena & Andrea Links Postpartum Support International [https://www.postpartum.net/] PSI Yates Children Memorial Fund Legal Justice Program [https://www.postpartum.net/about-psi/legal-justice/] A bit about the Yates Children Memorial Fund [https://www.postpartum.net/twenty-years-later/] I Need An Abortion [https://www.ineedana.com/] National Suicide Hotline: You can call 998 or find help online at  https://988lifeline.org/ [https://988lifeline.org/] Domestic Abuse Hotline [https://www.thehotline.org/] https://www.thetrevorproject.org/ Thank you for listening.

Get A Job - Episode 07 - With Comedian & Ceramicist Eliza Skinner

Send us a text [https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/text_messages/2395800/open_sms] Comedian, Showrunner, Ceramicist and very good friend Eliza Skinner and I talk about how rom coms effed us all, Bad Women, cultural fables, what do our "butts and guts want" and how she should’ve been a Unitarian Minister. The song for this episode is Get a Job. Inspired by the fact that Dena was fired from Walmart within hrs of the local news making public a picture of her at work. She was doing nothing wrong, had served her time, and was following all the rules given to her.  Links Eliza's Socials: https://www.tiktok.com/@realelizaskinner [https://www.tiktok.com/@realelizaskinner] https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1982901/ [https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1982901/] Faster Pussycat Kill Kill Trailer [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLTnzo-nd8Q] Masterpiece Bakery  / ACLU (Colorado) [https://www.aclu.org/news/lgbtq-rights/masterpiece-bakery-wins-battle-loses-war] Kim Davis - Kentucky Clerk who denied licenses [https://www.cnn.com/2024/01/03/us/kentucky-clerk-kim-davis-marriage-licenses/index.html#:~:text=Kim%20Davis%2C%20ex%2Dclerk%20of,couples%2C%20citing%20her%20religious%20beliefs.]  Web Designer Supreme Court Decision [https://ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/news/2023/06/30/supreme-court-same-sex-marriage-website-colorado#:~:text=Supreme%20Court%20backs%20web%20designer,By%20Justin%20Tasolides%20Washington%2C%20D.C.&text=The%20Supreme%20Court%20on%20Friday,blow%20to%20gay%20rights%20nationwide.] Down Came the Rain - Brooke Shields book on postpartum depression [https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/782614.Down_Came_the_Rain] Postpartum Book Club Chat about it… [https://postpartumprogress.com/warrior-mom-book-club-down-came-the-rain-by-brooke-shields] A Way With Words [https://www.waywordradio.org/] Ballad of Dena & Andrea Links Postpartum Support International https://www.postpartum.net/ [https://www.postpartum.net/] PSI Yates Children Memorial Fund Legal Justice Program https://www.postpartum.net/about-psi/legal-justice/ [https://www.postpartum.net/about-psi/legal-justice/] A bit about the Yates Children Memorial Fund https://www.postpartum.net/twenty-years-later/ [https://www.postpartum.net/twenty-years-later/] I Need An Abortion https://www.ineedana.com/ [https://www.ineedana.com/] National Suicide Hotline: You can call 998 or find help online at https://988lifeline.org/ [https://988lifeline.org/] Domestic Abuse Hotline https://www.thehotline.org/ [https://www.thehotline.org/] Trevor Project https://www.thetrevorproject.org/ [https://www.thetrevorproject.org/] Support the Podcast Links Venmo [https://account.venmo.com/u/beckydpoole] Album [https://tr.ee/0YlH5KQta3] Hosted and created by Becky Poole Songs written and sung by Becky Poole Musical Saw by Becky Poole Song and Theme Instrumentation, Production, and Mix by Abby Posner Mastered by Dave Locke Podcast Audio Editing & Mixing by Evan Mosher Graphic Design by Stefan Lawrence Photo by Logan Futej Thank you for listening.
