Happy New Year & Television? (Episode 9)

This week, Hendrix and I are talking about "television".  Don't ask, why, this is what he brought to the table (lol).  In our conversation, I made mention of a couple of my favorite childhood shows, as well as some television history references that are linked below for your viewing pleasure: (The Magic Garden) https://youtu.be/PFauw9YnkD0  (Captain Kangaroo) https://youtu.be/haLUvj4UTfw (History of televison...all text, no pictures) https://stephens.hosting.nyu.edu/History%20of%20Television%20page.html (UHF vs. VHF Frequencies) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan-American_television_frequencies As always, thank you for listening, and we would love to hear what you think about the show - or even some topics you would like Hendrix to ask me about.  Hit us up on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_hey_mommy_podcast/ [https://www.instagram.com/the_hey_mommy_podcast/]  or via email: theheymommypodcast@gmail.com [https://www.instagram.com/the_hey_mommy_podcast/] Be well out there - Mommy & Hendrix

Transportation Things (Episode 8)

Hey, folks.   This week, Hendrix is asking Mommy all about transportation.  All forms of it.  It became evident in our conversation that it might be helpful to share the following links to help others do their own digging about the origins of some of the major aspects of modern society, in regard to both the celebration of halloween and transportation.  Check these out: History of Halloween: https://www.history.com/topics/halloween/history-of-halloween [https://www.history.com/topics/halloween/history-of-halloween] For a high lexile read about Egypt: https://escholarship.org/content/qt3xq6b093/qt3xq6b093.pdf [https://escholarship.org/content/qt3xq6b093/qt3xq6b093.pdf] What exactly is a lexile and why should you know what it is?

Food & Drink (Episode 6)

Hi Folks. Welcome to an episode all about food and drink.  Even more exciting than the conversation about food and drink, this episode we are introducing a new segment called, Catch Me Reading, which is also a hashtag we use on the socials to highlight what Hendrix and I are currently reading and/or writing to be read.  Our very first #CatchMeReading segment highlights my first children's book entitled, My Wish for You.  This first book, is the extension of daily conversations I have had, and continue to have, each morning with Hendrix, where I ask him, "how did you sleep?" and, "did you dream?".  Those conversations have created beautiful bonding moments for he and I to share what we are thinking about and feeling.  You can read more, and even purchase the book, using the links below: My Wish for You press release: http://www.newmansprings.com/release/?book=my-wish-for-you [http://www.newmansprings.com/release/?book=my-wish-for-you] Amazon link to purchase My Wish for You: https://www.amazon.com/My-Wish-You-J-Chatmon/dp/1648014429 [https://www.amazon.com/My-Wish-You-J-Chatmon/dp/1648014429] Barnes & Noble link to purchase My Wish for You: https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/my-wish-for-you-j-chatmon/1139718718 [https://www.barnesandnoble.com/w/my-wish-for-you-j-chatmon/1139718718] Target link to purchase My Wish for You: https://www.target.com/p/my-wish-for-you-by-j-chatmon-hardcover/-/A-83890970?ref=tgt_adv_XS000000&AFID=google_pla_df&fndsrc=tgtao&DFA=71700000023621510&CPNG=PLA_Entertainment%2BShopping_Brand_Competitor%7CEntertainment_Ecomm_Hardlines&adgroup=SC_Entertainment&LID=700000001170770pgs&LNM=PRODUCT_GROUP&network=g&device=c&location=9031003&targetid=pla-308131048976&ds_rl=1246978&gclid=CjwKCAjwqeWKBhBFEiwABo_XBp_coQgLOt_LLJjSGqE6ai-FU-Moi6jY6Lch3b96woeuSdfGPDl6QRoCgZ8QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds [https://www.target.com/p/my-wish-for-you-by-j-chatmon-hardcover/-/A-83890970?ref=tgt_adv_XS000000&AFID=google_pla_df&fndsrc=tgtao&DFA=71700000023621510&CPNG=PLA_Entertainment%2BShopping_Brand_Competitor%7CEntertainment_Ecomm_Hardlines&adgroup=SC_Entertainment&LID=700000001170770pgs&LNM=PRODUCT_GROUP&network=g&device=c&location=9031003&targetid=pla-308131048976&ds_rl=1246978&gclid=CjwKCAjwqeWKBhBFEiwABo_XBp_coQgLOt_LLJjSGqE6ai-FU-Moi6jY6Lch3b96woeuSdfGPDl6QRoCgZ8QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds] As always, thank you for listening, and we would love to hear what you think about the show - or even some topics you would like Hendrix to ask me about.  Hit us up on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_hey_mommy_podcast/ [https://www.instagram.com/the_hey_mommy_podcast/]  or via email: theheymommypodcast@gmail.com [https://www.instagram.com/the_hey_mommy_podcast/] Be well out there - Mommy & Hendrix

A Little Bit About COVID-19 (Episode 5)

Greetings all, and welcome back.   First, you should know, this episode is a bit longer than our agreed upon 15 minutes due to the nature of discussing COVID-19.  Also, it is extremely important to note that I (Mommy) am NOT any sort of medical doctor or scientist, and all of my responses are the result of my own independent reading and research.   Because it is so important for each of us to do our own research, I've provided some links below to do just that: Background and updates on COVID-19 from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC): https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html [https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/index.html] What is a virus?: https://www.hopkinsallchildrens.org/Patients-Families/Health-Library/HealthDocNew/What-Are-Germs  [https://www.hopkinsallchildrens.org/Patients-Families/Health-Library/HealthDocNew/What-Are-Germs ] What is a pandemic?: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pandemic [https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pandemic] What is a "wet market"?: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/wet%20market [https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/wet%20market] What is social distancing (and other preventive methods)?: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/prevention.html [https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/prevention.html] As always, thank you for listening, and we would love to hear what you think about the show - or even some topics you would like Hendrix to ask me about.  Hit us up on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_hey_mommy_podcast/ [https://www.instagram.com/the_hey_mommy_podcast/]  or via email: theheymommypodcast@gmail.com [https://www.instagram.com/the_hey_mommy_podcast/] Be well out there - Mommy & Hendrix
