Lily, the creator of Curiosity Pack, joins me to talk education, creativity and kids! She’s got all the goods in terms of being able to put together fun and engaging learning experiences for your child. Lily is all about the joy of learning and helping kids (and their parents) to find it! We also talk Bay Area pizza, but at this point it should be no surprise that the conversation ended up there…
Let’s set the scene – One afternoon I was watching ‘Go Diego Go’ with my daughter and saw that the head writer’s name was Ligiah Villalobos. So, what’s a fledgling podcaster to do? I looked Ligiah up on twitter and messaged her asking if she wanted to come on the show. She said yes! My kids love ‘Go Diego Go’ and it certainly qualifies as Good Stuff in my household. I think you’ll enjoy hearing all of the behind the scenes information that Ligiah shares about what it’s like to create a show like ‘Diego’.
Bill Childs from Spare the Rock, Spoil the Child is on the show this week. Spare the Rock is a radio show based out of Austin, TX and it is also a well known podcast. Bill has been promoting “kindie” music for many years and has helped out many artists. It was interesting to hear Bill’s perspective on kids music and the work that he does.
I also “horsed around” with Will this week. Will loves math competitions and it was so so so fun to talk to him about that.
Dan Nichols joined me this week for a really fun talk about music, basketball, and cheesy nuggets. I’ve known Dan for years and it was really cool to hear him talk about his music and what inspired him. He has a new album, ‘i believe’ coming out in the next couple of weeks, and ahead of that you can hear his new song “No One” at the end of the show. It rocks. A lot. A lot a lot.
Secret Agent 23 Skidoo is on the show this week and we talk hip hop and his brand new album “Infinity plus one”. Skidoo was a complete blast to talk to and his new album is (inter)stellar!
In a brand new segment called “Explain”, I’m joined by Corey and Jordan who attempt to explain Pokemon Go. I do not understand the Pokemon Go phenomenon at all. I know that there are lots of other people who feel the same way. Corey and Jordan do their best to change that. I found the whole Pokemon thing to be hilarious and weird.
Zachy is back on the show as well with his review of the Secret Life of Pets. It’s a jam packed show this week, thanks for listening and supporting!
Welcome to the first ever Camp Newman podcast episode. Camp Newman is a Reform Jewish overnight camp in Santa Rosa, California.
In this special episode of the Good Stuff Kids Podcast, we let some campers take over as they bring you an “audio documentary” right from camp. You’ll hear interviews with campers and staff around URJ Camp Newman about their own camp experiences and daily life at camp during the summer. (Everything you hear was recorded on site at camp, so please excuse any loud ambient noise.)
We hope that you felt the love of camp as much as we do and we hope to see you next summer at URJ Camp Newman. This podcast can be found at www.goodstuffpod.com and the Camp Newman Facebook Page. If you want more information about camp please visit campnewman.org.
The interviews on this podcast were conducted by Benji, Hayden, Sarah, Leon, Rachael, Ari, and our counselor Hannah from Hagigah 2016! Thanks for listening!
