Gene Baur is the founder of Farm Sanctuary, a place of rescue, refuge, and adoption for hundreds of farm animals each year. Farm Sanctuary shelters enable visitors to connect with farm animals as emotional, intelligent individuals. Gene has also led campaigns to change laws about animal treatment and taken undercover photographs of farms, stockyards, and slaughterhouses, documenting deplorable conditions. His pictures and videos exposing factory farming cruelties have aired nationally and internationally, educating millions about the plight of modern farm animals, and his rescue work inspired an international farm sanctuary movement. Once called “the conscience of the food movement” by Time magazine, Gene walks the walk and talks the talk when it comes to food and animal rights. Jay and Gene discuss the political and cultural steps that will bring about the end of factory farming and a healthier approach to animals and food.

We gave ourselves a homework assignment – huddle up with our partners and our kids and write a little family manifesto. How simple! How fun! How sweet! LOL. Turns out it might be a bit trickier than our rosy idealism pictured. Today, we share the ragged and the spectacular parts of the experience, offer up the manifestos we made, and brainstorm what we want to try next time.
Tune In to Hear Up Talk About:
🌟 The stakes of manifesto writing that tripped us up from the start.
🔍 What the process of this project revealed to us about ourselves and our families.
🎵 The part of the creation process when Rebekah's family really got on board.
📜 Manifestos as a living breathing document.
🧠 A juicy brainstorm of different manifesto mediums to try.
📋 Caitlin's mini workshop on the purpose of a manifesto and how to approach making one.
Mentioned In Today's Episode:

This episode is a happy goodbye to all the good parenting goals we are sending off to sea. There is only so much we can prioritize, so much energy, so many battles to fight and hills to die on.

We found Bear when we fell head-over-heels in love with his parenting book, Special Topics In Being a Parent . Unlike so many parenting advice we've read, Bear's approach felt adaptable and possible. It was only after we booked our interview that we realized Bear is a BFD. A founding member of the very first Gay/Straight Alliance, Bear has spent the last several decades telling stories, writing books, and inviting humans into greater justice, equity, and inclusion. He is brimming with deep insight, flexible scripts, and the most non-judgmental advice.

How do we talk to our kids about war, death, families being separated, floods, guns, violence, any of it? Should we shield them as much and as long as possible? Should we hold their hand as we tell them what we know to be real? How do we balance protecting our kids with equipping them? These questions feel important, the stakes feel high, we're doing our best, and making it up as we go. Today we dive into it as we try to figure out how we want to navigate the conversations that scare us. Tune in to hear us talk about: The sticky conversations Caitlin loves diving into with their kid and why some topics feel so much harder. 🇺🇸 How our parents' talked with us about politics in the 90s. 🪦 The very different responses we had to our kids seeing dead animals and the one thread we share. 📚 How Caitlin is using books and stories as invitations and bridges into hard conversations. 🪧 The conversations Rebekah had with a fellow protester that illuminated how she wants to move through today's politic landscape with her son. ⚙️ A potentially measured and responsible new strategy to equip our kids for the scary realities of today's world.

And while it sounds like the pitch for a movie we'd all love, today Kate talks with us about the real-life, fleshed-out story. What stars had to align for her to leave the "good enough" setup she already had for the risk of a dream? What has it been like to be a partner and a parent as she makes this great leap? What is it like to create a third-space community around books and storytelling right now? And does the nervous-scary of a big risky dream ever go away? Tune in to hear us talk about: ☎️ The story of the old 70s phone they use in the store and all the ways it sets the tone for the shop. 💫 What Kate's husband Justin said when he heard her name her bookstore dream out loud at a party. ％ The strategies Kate and Justin have developed to navigate living, parenting, and working together. 🔧 The big and unexpected monkey wrench in their plans and how that became the scary ideal way to actually launch their plans. 🔔 The epiphany Kate had while waiting for someone else to tell her she had a brilliant plan. 🌿 Why Kate thinks Monstera's Books is a worthy competitor to Amazon.

What does living alongside a toddler reveal to us about our high school and college students? How does time in the classroom inform the way we approach learning with our pre-schoolers?

پخش در آینده پخش در آینده لیست ها پسندیدن دوست داشته شدToday on Scratch That we bring you the disabled bromance of your dreams – Danny Kurtzman and Steve Way . You might know Steve from his role on the Hulu series Ramy , and maybe you recognize Danny from his modeling days, but most recently, these two have been in creative collaboration as the leading man (Danny) and executive producer (Steve) of the recent (gorgeous) film Good Bad Things . These two live out the themes of this podcast, literally rewriting the scripts of disability storytelling as actors, screenwriters, producers, and directors. And as they share about their own creative journeys, it's very clear they have a powerful friendship. Starting May 13th, you can stream Good Bad Things on Hulu! Here's a link with all the places you can listen, watch, purchase, and support💛 Let's show the powers that be with our plays, hearts, and downloads that this is the kind of storytelling we crave! Tune in to hear: 🖤 Steve tell us what it was like to grow up thinking he wouldn't live to be an adult. 🫧 Danny describe the gifts and curses of the bubble he grew up in. 👤 The gnarly ways internalized ableism has shown up in both their stories, and the revising/rewiring/rewriting they continue to do. 👊 The potent power of friendship in rewriting our own scripts. ❓ Steve tell us the simplest, most effective question his friends asked him when he was in a dark place. ⚡️ Danny's hot take on "inspiration porn." 📺 All the deets on their new film, Good Bad Things , and how this movie wouldn't exist without Danny seeing Steve on TV first. Mentioned In Today's Episode: Steve's hilarious standup . The coach we all love and adore, Carson Tueller . The 5-minute film, We'll Meet Again , Danny and Steve made for the 2025 Easterseals Disability Film Challenge. (Content warning – true to its prompt, this film is a genuine horror. As it looks at some of the darkest layers of ableism, it includes suggestions of suicide.) NOT Mentioned In Today's Episode: After we stopped recording, Danny reminded me that we try to ask all our guests to contribute a song to our collaborative Scratch That playlist, Songs That Have Held Us . Danny and Steve are both big fans of Mac Miller and our playlist now includes the song they chose – " Good News. " As Always: Check out Caitlin and Rebekah's Book Shop !

Open a cute little boutique? Or try your hand at jumpstarting an art career? Our guest today has the trickster energy to try it all, throwing off scripts about being too inexperienced or too old to explore, try, and play. Elsie Larson is a mother of two and co-founder of A Beautiful Mess empire she's built with her sister Emma. The two are creative makers to their core, from their vintage clothing boutique Red Velvet (RIP) where they sold their originally designed dresses to their outrageously successful blog where they share original recipes, DIY projects, and home renovation ideas. They've written books , co-host a podcast , and showcase their ideas on their Instagram account . Today we truly talk about it all with Elsie, from her journey as a creative to her role as an adoptive parent, from her earliest years to her plans for her 50s. Tune in to hear us talk about: 🤸 The way Elsie's childhood fostered her creative trickster energy. ⚠️ Where she gets her boldness, willingness to take risks, and try something new. 🏆 Jealousy as a manifesting tool. 🧭 How Elsie pivoted when she lost her sense of self in early parenthood. 📅 Making choices for yourself 10 years from now & feeling excited to get old. 📝 The common scripts about adoption that strangers repeat to Elsie & how she's narrating a different story in front of her daughters. 💞Ridding ourselves of the assumption that we understand our kids' experiences of the world & generating more curiosity within a family ecosystem. 🐣 Rebekah and Elsie's shared stories of getting married and divorced really young. 🙏 How our particular evangelical upbringings influence how we show up as adults/parents & what Caitlin misses most about church. Mentioned In Today's Episode: We talk about "trickster energy" a lot on Scratch That!

We wish every single one of you could sit in the presence of Sacha Mardou. Until that day, we offer you this hearts-out, into-the-depths-of-it-together conversation. Author of the graphic memoir, Past Tense , Sacha shares her story of developing anxiety when she turned 40, going to therapy for the first time, and learning that her childhood story was still with her, waiting for her self-compassion. Rich with insight and never trite, she honors the mess, the nonlinear, the unfixable alongside the hope for meaningful change. Not only did Sacha share her own stories and wisdom, but she embodied a sharp clarity and generosity in her presence with us, showcasing, in real time, her hard earned therapy tool belt. A heads-up for caution and care – around 36 minutes into this episode, Sacha references her mother being sexually assaulted at the age of 13. Tune in to hear us talk about: 📝 How to adult through therapy – e.g. How do you know how long to go? When to go back? When to switch therapists? How do you process/document what you’re learning? How do you act as a self-advocate in therapy? 💓 Naming the parts of ourselves trying to hold us together with harshness and rigidity, and the importance and challenge of self-compassion. 🌈 Creativity as a bridge to connecting with and understanding Self. 📓 Sacha’s mini lesson on Internal Family Systems. 🧑🧒 How therapy shapes the way Sacha shows up as a parent (and how that’s changed now that she has a teenager). 🔓 Closed family communication systems versus open family communication systems. 🔄 Legacy burdens and repeated family traumas. 🔨 Grappling with the reality that we can’t fix ourselves enough to be perfect parents and learning to model owning our mistakes and repairing relationships. ⏰ Having the tools but feeling like we don’t have the time, energy, or wherewithal to implement them.

As we gear up for the week of Christmas and all of the layered feelings this stretch of days can bring, we wanted to offer you something good and grounding. To prepare, we gave ourselves a prompt: write a little blessing, love note, prayer for the holiday week. Today, we read them allowed – an offering to ourselves, each other, and you. We would love to hear from you! How are you orienting yourself this week? What feels hard? What feels easy? What feels different than previous years?

پخش در آینده پخش در آینده لیست ها پسندیدن دوست داشته شدLisa Olivera 's words are a uniquely grounding force in a world fueled by algorithms that thrive on speedy-hot-takes, over-simplicity, and one-note narratives. Every time the internet feels like it’s literally going to combust under the strain of loud noises, her steady voice calls us back to our bodies and our inner knowing. We had so many questions for her! And in Lisa-fashion, she met our wonderings with a generous, present, and soft openness, offering reframes and revelations we didn't even know we needed. We're so excited to share this episode with you. 💛 Tune in to hear us talk about: 💫 Reframes for imposter syndrome, self-criticism, and the parts of our stories that have only ever felt hard/sad/painful. 📖 The strange experience of writing a book that makes its way into the world right after you've sustained a complete disintegration of self through new parenthood. 🦋 Giving ourselves, our kids, our partners permission to change, evolve, and grow. 🎭 The many different ways to think about the stories we hold – storytelling as an evolving practice, the limitations of storytelling, holding our stories loosely. 🪂 Letting go of the idea that we can control other people's stories, even our kids' (and letting ourselves feel the grief of that). 💕 The counter-intuitive strength of staying soft. If you want more of Lisa's voice in your world, check out her stunning Substack, Human Stuff , her book Already Enough , and stay tuned for the release of her next one! We would love to hear from you! How do you see storytelling showing up in your own life? Is it a tool? Or a hinderance? Where do you feel yourself becoming rigid? Where would you like to soften?

We are in the season of a million gift-giving choices – What do we want to spend money on? How do we find gifts that make people feel seen/loved/celebrated? How do we buy/make gifts with thought and care when we don't have any time? Today, we dive headfirst into our personal gift giving values and offer a giant pile of recommendations (no one is paying us to make!) with the hope that it sparks something for you that feels good. Caitlin, Our Favorite Bougie Bitch , prefers gifts that align with the way their brain functions. They prioritize fewer things of higher quality that will last over time and not make their home feel loud and cluttered. They recommend: 🎨 Consumable Gifts (art projects, activities, experiences) 🎟️ Memberships 🥝 Kiwi Co monthly subscriptions or individual boxes (like this play-dough pasta-making kit ) 🎭 Gathre vegan leather products for kids (like this doorway theater , seated spinner , car truck mat , and tunnel ) 📻 YOTO for screen free entertainment 🖼️ Artifact Uprising beautiful books (you can make board books! Which I did for Charlie his first Christmas that we treasure), calendars, and more! It's so good! 📦 MakeDo I forgot to mention this! But it's one of our favorite toys ever! It's a set of screws, knife, screwdriver for cardboard that little ones can use! We make all kinds of things with it! Rebekah, The Idealist Without Enough Time , wants everything gift to be handmade and soaking with meaning. She prioritizes items that feel one-of-a-kind thoughtful that don't take quite as much time as a hand-sewn quilt. She recommends: 🧶 ETSY for handmade, customized, feels-like-a-perfect-thrift-store-find items. 📷 Shutterfly or Artifact Uprising (or any company that lets you make things with your own photos) for photo books and inside joke mugs. ✨ Gift cards to local bookstores & small businesses! (Like this cozy spot in KC ) 👻 Prints, stickers, buttons, pins from artists! (Like Tender Ghost ) 🌱 Small scale handmade gifts that don't actually take a ton of time (like simple collaged photos and little decorated plant pots). 💌 A heartfelt, thoughtful card!!!! And one of their all time favorite gifts to give – BOOKS! Together, their top recommendations include: 🌵 Instructions for Traveling West by Joy Sullivan 🙏 Gay Girl Prayers by Emily Austin 🐟 Why Fish Don't Exist by Lulu Miller ⏰ The Power of Moments by Chip Heath and Dan Heath 🍂 The Book of Delights by Ross Gay 💫 Catalog of Unabashed Gratitude by Ross Gay 🥩 Night Bitch by Rachel Yoder ⛰️ All Fours by Miranda July ⚡️ You Better Be Lightning by Andrea Gibson 🦋 Lord of the Butterflies by Andrea Gibson We would love to hear the ways you approach gift giving!

This conversation was inspired by a visit Rebekah took to her son's classroom. As he has adjusted to a new school, Rebekah has tried to think more critically about how she wants to lead the conversation (and onslaught of inevitable questions these kids have) about her wheelchair. In SCRATCH THAT fashion, this episode is more in-real-time-processing and back-and-forth questions than a 1-2-3 step plan for raising our babies to have immediate and "perfect" understanding of disability from a very young age. How do we teach our kids how to respond when they notice difference in public? How do we teach our kids about all kinds of difference when they don't experience all of it in real life? Are there any blanket rules about what we say/don't say? How do we avoid accidentally reinforcing the stigmas we're trying to push against? And as we ask and listen, we realize this is actually a conversation about how we do the hard work of being community with all kinds of different people. Together, we generate a hearty set of ideas for how we strive to navigate these tricky conversations that we fully expect to be just as messy as human relationships themselves. Tune in to hear us talk about: 📚 Our favorite disability-forward picture books. 📜 Rebekah's current script for answering questions about her wheelchair. 🎯 Evaluating our goals in teaching our kids about disability and difference more broadly. What are we really trying to do here? 🎨 The pieces that make these conversations sticky and complicated and learning to embrace the messiness of it all. ♿️ How Otto's new school has responded to Rebekah's disability and need for access. 🤝 A sprawling brainstorm on how we teach our kids (and ourselves) to build communities of care. Mentioned in this episode : Come Over to My House by Eliza Hull Bodies Are Cool by Tyler Feder This Is How We Play by Jessica Slice Mama Car by Lucy Catchpole The Circus Ship by Chris Van Dusen Cake Girl by David Lucas We would love to hear from you! How are you navigating these kinds of conversations? Have you discovered any scripts that have helped you? What makes these moments feels especially tricky to you in any direction?…

پخش در آینده پخش در آینده لیست ها پسندیدن دوست داشته شدToday we're thrilled to bring you our conversation with the aunt you always needed, the one with the funniest memes and all the colors, we can't imagine the internet without her — Nina Tame! Nina is doing powerful, hilarious work to revise the scripts we have around disability that has made its way across the globe (if you don't yet follow her Instagram , go forth and consume), but maybe the most profound evidence of this rewriting shows up in her own little family. Nina grew up disabled and is now the mum to three boys, the third of which shares Nina's disability. Listening to her reflect on parenting as she tends to her younger selves feels like a tangible moment of re-parenting that I imagine many of us need. Tune in to hear about: 📜 The early inheritance of a script that disability is bad. 🧑🧑🧒 A gentle/honest reflection on what it was like to be parented as a disabled kid. ⚡️ Nina's hard-earned insights on the best practices for parenting a disabled kid. 💓 The lifelong work of teaching our younger parts that they're not a piece of shit. 👯♂️ The transformative shift of disability as a medical experience to a social experience. 🌱 The multitude of ways that disability enhances a family ecosystem. Mentioned in this episode : 📖 Nina and Rebekah both have essays coming out in the forthcoming YA collection, Owning It: Stories From Our Disabled Childhoods . (While the target audience is around 9-13, we think it's also for anyone who's ever been 9-13.)

We don't have a lot of words right now. No hot takes. No three step plans. We feel heavy, confused, and scared. And while we might have the impulse to shut down, we want to be intentional to bear witness to the untidy snarl of this moment. It didn't feel right to carry along with our regularly programming when so many of us are grieving & afraid right now. So here's a tiny conversation to hold space for a greater pause — for feeling our feelings, for taking deep breaths, for listening to more stories & reflecting on the stories we hold, for making plans to support the ones around us, for whatever we need to feel the ground beneath us. And in the meantime, here are some poems & essays that are speaking to us right now. What do you turn toward? by Lisa Olivera MAGA Hat In the Chemo Room , by Andrea Gibson For My Sister , by Kate Baer I don't want another black president: a love letter , by Kaplan Villacorte Trudo How Dark the Beginning , by Maggie Smith…

1 🌪️ How Do We Talk About Our Internalized Ableism? 1:05:06
1:05:06 پخش در آینده پخش در آینده لیست ها پسندیدن دوست داشته شد1:05:06
پخش در آینده پخش در آینده لیست ها پسندیدن دوست داشته شدThe conversation we bring you today is especially tender. We decided to sit down to talk about internalized ableism, because Caitlin is grappling with a potentially new diagnosis that has brought up a lot for them. We hope you'll listen to this one with care — as we process together, we lift the lids on some of the ugliest wounds ableism inflicts. And so much is still fresh. The two of us experience internalized ableism differently for a host of reasons — Caitlin feels wobbly even claiming the title of disability and would embody a combination of old and new, non-apparent versions of the word, while Rebekah moves through the world in a very visible wheelchair, and has for most of her life — but as we talked, we bumped into a host of thought-provoking overlaps and deviations in our experiences. Tune in to hear us explore : 🌪️ The wide range of layered emotions that can come up with a new diagnosis. 🦆 The definition of ableism through the metaphor of a duck on water. 🌊 The messy intersections of postpartum depression, internalized ableism, and ADHD/autistic burnout. 👍 The feeling of needing to prove we can be trusted to care for our kids, especially in public. ❗️ The ways pregnancy and postpartum can become disabling experiences, especially in a country that does not support new parents. 💵 How money changes the experience of disability. ♟️ Strategies for navigating mental health struggles as a parent. 🌱 A hope that adjusting to a new diagnosis can be a beautiful process, too. Mentioned int this episode : 📖 Easy Beauty by Chloe Cooper Jones 🌀 Andy J Pizza shares a lot about his experience of ADHD as a creative — find him on Instagram or his podcast, The Creative Pep Talk Podcast . 🫧 KC Davis creates conversation around neurodivergence & parenting — find her on TikTok , her podcast, Struggle Care , or read her book, How To Keep House While Drowning: A Gentle Approach to Cleaning and Organizing . ⚡️Katherine May's book The Electricity of Every Living Thing 🌿 The Neurodivergence Skills Workbook for Autism and ADHD: Cultivate Self-Compassion, Live Authentically, and Be Your Own Advocate by Jennifer Kemp and Monique Mitchelson We would love to keep the conversation going in the comments. How do your experiences with internalized ableism overlap/deviate from the experiences we talk about in today's episode? How are you coping? What feels hard? What do you understand now that you didn't at first? Find us on instagram @sitting_pretty ✨ @caitlinhasfeels…
