Hardcore Histories: Tales of a Drummer, I mean Teacher, I mean Coach, I mean Friend -with Matt Grande
In sixth grade the biggest news to hit the hallways was the engagement between the English teacher and the janitor. Each were fairly young and more than fairly gorgeous and when Ms. Bindrim, the English teacher, had told us she lived in a garden apartment I immediately assumed she lived like the cast of Melrose Place. Since 1995 I think I have always wondered what my teachers did outside of school. Today--for any kids like me--I get to feed that curiosity. Join me as we get a history lesson from a middle school history teacher, not in noteworthy events but in a life well-lived. Matt tells the tale of coming of age as a touring musician but finding just as much (if not more) contentment becoming a teacher. Matt takes us on the tour bus, the hotel rooms, to college, to teaching middle schoolers, to his best-gig-yet, being a dad. Oh, and he doesn't hesitate to roast me along the way. If that doesn't sell this story, I don't know what could.

’Because Love Battles’: A Mother, A Son, and a Determination to Make a Difference -with Michelle Hutchinson
Five months after her second child was born, Michelle started to do that thing we are all told not to do (and we all equally can't help but do): she compared her babies one to the other. Baby 1 was active, exploratory, babbling as early as anyone can remember. Baby 2 was quiet, seemed uninterested, appeared helpless. The differences were too many to ignore and by eight months, Colton, Baby 2, was referred for developmental physical therapy. But that was just the beginning. Michelle Hutchinson's son was diagnosed with an incredibly rare condition known as 48XXXY. The entire Hutchinson family would soon begin a life filled with multiple therapy appointments, travel for medical services, and a crash course in rare diseases and research funding. With full plates yet fuller hearts, the Hutchinsons started a non-profit to raise funds both for families facing rare diagnoses and for medical researchers to continue their work studying these conditions. This is a story about the unexpected, sure, but it's more a story about seeing a need and serving it. For Colton, for rare conditions, for families like their own, Michelle started Colton's XXXtraordinary Cause. And she's not the only Hutchinson out there raising awareness. Join Michelle Hutchinson and I...and special guest Ella Hutchinson for an XXXtraordinary story about love and service and community and hope.

A Human Being, Goddamit: On Fighting for a Life of Value, Wishing for a Life of Ease -with Nicole Palma
Nicole Palma showed signs of extreme, unexplained fatigue as early as elementary school. She'd receive a precise diagnosis in her twenties. A tale 'as old as time,' it seems, a woman misdiagnosed, misjudged, altogether missed. And that's just the beginning of the story. Nicole and I leave few stones unturned this week as we look at life with medical anomalies, with disabilities, with compounding stressors. From fighting for the diagnosis, to fighting for her job. From navigating new ailments to new 'band-aids.' We talk family and friends and lovers who believe us and those that don't. We talk some of the sweetest memories of leisurely New York walks and the painful reality that those days are gone. We ended our previous episode with a realization that the world wasn't built with all bodies in mind. Nicole Palma gives voice, today, to all the ways it surely wasn't, to all the ways it weighs on her mind.
