    Identity or Disease with guest Ruth Pan

    Neurodiversity. ASD, ADHD, Transgender, Homosexual. All started out being treated as diseases. While some have started the transition to being an identity instead of a disease, the stench of the disease label lingers: conversion therapy, legal obstacles to transgendered life…and then there’s ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder) & ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder)  which haven’t even made the first move in that direction. Ruth Pan is a film maker and writer living in Austin who identifies as a member of the LGBTQIA+ community and is working with her medical team to determine if she has ADHD. She lives at the intersection of this question. She also shares her coming out story. Please send her lots of love for being this open and vulnerable with us, Jusa-Nation! DeNeece has a theory about trash pandas in Alternative Reflections. Iza returns for Ratchet Effect bemoaning the internet-driven culture we're in especially where dating is concerned. This is a can't miss episode and the next-to-last episode of season 1! Don't forget to tell your friends to listen! Like and subscribe on your favorite podcast platform.

    Pursuit of Happiness

    In the US, the pursuit of happiness is a constitutional right and the happiness industry (yes, there is such a thing) is constantly peddling products that give us a temporary boost of dopamine, the happiness hormone. But, what really makes us happy? Is there anything we can do to feel truly satisfied with our lives? Co-hosts Iza and DeNeece take a look at what science and religion have to say about achieving happiness and a hard look at our shortcomings too.  Segments: The Ratchet Effect: Why TikTok is Ratchet Alternative Reflections: A Ranch Care Package With a bonus at the end on the worst presents we've ever received.

    BONUS: Breonna Taylor, Philando Castile, Maj Toure and Black Guns Matter

    Once we finished speaking about relationship anarchy, Candace Owens, and the 20 Senators' letter demanding the FDA ban the abortion pill for Episode 6 and with the mics still live, our conversation turned to Justice for Breonna Taylor, gun culture in working and middle class white families, Maj Toure and his organization Black Guns Matter, and how legally carrying a gun did not protect Philando Castile.  It didn't make it into episode 6 because it was off topic and very conversational which is not in line with our vision. We just don't want to be a "two people sitting around having a conversation for an hour" type of show. There are lots out there & we even listen to a few of them! We're here for women who have plenty of demands on their time already. We want to stick to the topic and deliver a to-the-point, succinct show that doesn't waste any of your precious time.  But the conversation was real, authentic, and might even be a challenge to listen to so we're releasing it as a bonus. You might want to give us a piece of your mind after listening in and we're here for it.  If you've got something to say in response to this bonus, call and leave us a voicemail at 512-766-4744.  #JusticeForBreonna #BlackLivesMatter #BlackGunsMatter #2A
