Rajani LaRocca believes that promoting diversity in children’s literature leads to empathy, and empathy makes the world a better place. She writes middle grade novels and picture books. Some of her books reflect her experiences as an immigrant, book nerd, and foodie; some explain medical topics to kids. And some are just ideas that pop into her head and won’t go away.
In this episode of the podcast Joe talks to author, and doctor Rajani LaRocca about 2 of her books "Red, White, and Whole" & "Much Ado About Baseball".
They discuss Rajani's background as an author, the reasons why she wrote each of the books, and the importance of representation in children's literature.
Enjoy!
13-year-old Reha, the daughter of Indian immigrants, is torn between two worlds—one with her parents and her Indian community, and one with her friends and 1980s pop culture. But then her mother falls ill, and she is torn in a different way. This middle grade novel-in-verse is about America and India, heritage and fitting in, Hindu mythology and 80’s pop music, holding on and letting go.
Trish moves to the town of Comity, MA and finds herself on the same summer baseball team as her math competition rival, Ben. The two 12-year-olds have to set aside their dislike for each other in order to help their team win, but the team is terrible. When a booklet of math puzzles claiming to reveal the “ultimate answer” arrives, Trish and Ben start solving them, and the team’s luck seems to turn around…or is that because of the unusual snacks they’re getting from the new snack shop in town, the Salt Shaker? When excitement then leads to tragedy, can Trish and Ben find the answer to the ultimate puzzle, or will they strike out when it counts the most? This companion novel to Midsummer’s Mayhem combines math, baseball, food, and magic.

We primarily discuss his latest stand-up special "Who's With Me!?" but we also discuss his upcoming book "You Can't Write City Hall" sharing interesting stories and tidbits about his time as Mayor of his town. Jeremy is a delight and I cannot wait to have him back on the podcast!

Adam Kullberg is the Education Program Manager at Pop Culture Classroom. He joined the team in 2015, after serving as an outreach teacher and volunteer for the organization throughout 2014. Before that, he earned his MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Arizona and MA in English Literature from the University of North Texas. Since joining PCC, he has helped develop PCC’s outreach programming, pop culture-based workshops, and curricula, including a range of educational programs at Denver Pop Culture Con offered each year to teachers and students of all ages. In his free time, he enjoys playing lacrosse and binging corny action movies.
The need for innovative literacy education in Colorado inspired Pop Culture Classroom and its education programs. As teachers, artists, writers, parents, and all around pop culture activists, each of us has personal experience with the transformational power of comics and other pop culture media. We believe that literacy, creativity and creative thinking are essential abilities for our children as they prepare to navigate both the successes and challenges of life.
Pop Culture Classroom was founded in 2010 as Comic Book Classroom, a Colorado charitable organization focused on enhancing and improving student’s learning experience through the use of comic book media. At the same time, the founders of Comic Book Classroom also created the Denver Comic Con event.
The STC curriculum has been offered by schools, educators, libraries, and community organizations all across Colorado and beyond. The curriculum has expanded to include a comprehensive collection of reading materials, instructional videos, interactive activities and arts-based handouts designed to help students investigate storytelling, build art and literacy skills, and eventually create their very own comics. Completed entries are then published in a class collection.* *On this episode of the podcast Joe invites long-time friend Adam Kullberg to the podcast to discuss his work with Pop Culture Classroom. Joe & Adam discuss the various mediums used to drive life lessons home for students, how we can continue to evolve our way of learning, and what's on the horizon in a post-COVID world.

On January 15, 2017 CEO Michael Odiari founded Check after he was pulled over during a traffic stop and quickly found himself looking down the barrel of a policeman’s gun. As a person of color, he knew that this would likely not be his only negative interaction with the police and that there was a whole community of people with similar experiences.
From that incident on he has set out to bridge the communication gap between police and motorists. The Check App utilizes video calling technology to replace the initial interactions during a traffic stop. Instead of approaching a vehicle to obtain a motorist's information, leaving the officer vulnerable on the side of the road, police will be able to see Driver Licenses, Registration, and Insurance of the motorists.
Motorists will be able to see vital information about the officer who is pulling them over. These initial interactions over video can help both parties communicate better and even help save the lives of both the officer and the motorist.
Michael & Zachary from Check stop by the podcast to discuss the creation of their app, how it's progressing so far, and how they envision this app helping all people moving forward. To get more information about the app, or to sign up, CLICK HERE

Shani Mahiri King is a law professor at the University of Florida, where he is director of the Center on Children and Families and an Associate Director of the Center on Race and Race Relations. King received a B.A. from Brown University, a J.D. from Harvard Law School, and a Mst. in International Human Rights Law from Oxford University, and he is an active writer and scholar in the area of children’s rights and family law. King is the father of a nine-year-old daughter and a six-year-old son, for whom he wrote this book, as well as the picture book Have I Ever Told You? (2019).
Shani King on Why He Wrote This Book: “I wrote this book for my children and for all children who need an inspirational voice grounded in their own history. Think of any field of endeavor and Black innovators have made vital contributions. The Black women and men introduced in this book are but a small handful of those innovators. They were all kids once. They all overcame obstacles because they all believed in themselves. My goal is for all kids to see themselves in these pages. And, I hope this book contributes to the understanding that all kids, and all people, are central to the American narrative and the human experience.”
Shani came on the podcast to discuss why representation matters, why he wrote his latest book "Have I Ever Told You Black Lives Matter?", and what Black History Month means to him. It's a fantastic conversation I hope you'll enjoy it. And be sure to go pick up a copy of his book today!

Steve Dypiangco is an American filmmaker. He was a Producer of Marketing and Distribution for Luke Matheny's Oscar-Winning short film, God of Love.
Dypiangco's most recent film (and also web series), which he co-wrote and co-directed with Patrick Epino, is Awesome Asian Bad Guys, which stars a number of Asian American actors who played villains in 1980-1990s action movies, such as Al Leong, Yuji Okumoto and George Cheung.
A digital media exec turned entrepreneur, Stephen is the co-founder of Dadventures (hellodadventures.com), an early stage startup helping parents find fun things to do with their kids.
Dadventures was born out of a series of conversations between our Co-Founders, Steve and Devon, around the struggles and pitfalls of being a dad, which led to discussing Steve’s fateful trip to Disneyland. Focused on giving his daughters the best Disneyland experience possible, Steve meticulously researched every ride and polled his kids on which ones they were the most interested in. He even measured their heights just to make sure they’d be able to ride.
The result was an amazing family experience – riding 8 rides in less than 2 hours! Steve’s daughters were thrilled, and Steve was happy to have given his kids a great experience. But no one was happier than Steve’s wife, who got to enjoy a full day of parental success without having to do any of the planning. Dadventures helps parents figure out what to do and the easiest ways to do it, so parents can focus on being present with their kids.
Steve and I discussed the origins of Dadventures, how he has evolved the company in the midst of Covid-19, and what we can look forward to in 2021 and beyond. We also discuss his film career and how representation on screen matters for our children. If we want to make a more inclusive world we need to ensure everyone is represented on screen. Thanks for coming on the show Steve, we cannot wait to have you back on the show!

2020 has felt like an entire decade but we've finally made it to the end of the year, and since this is the last episode of the year we felt it fitting to take a look back at the year that was.
In this 'best of' episode we take clips from the top 10 listened to episodes all year long. We appreciate the guests and conversations we had on the show, and use it to inform the content for 2021. We're entering the 5th year of the podcast and will continue to evolve the show to ensure we're providing content which helps to make a more inclusive world.
Thank you to all the wonderful guests we had this year, and thank you to the listeners who keep coming back and lending their voices to the discussion. Happy New Year!

Dr. Tiffany Woodus has over 10 years of experience in healthcare. She completed a Doctor of Medicine degree from The University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in 2006. Subsequently, she completed an internship and residency in Obstetrics & Gynecology from The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center (UTSW)/Parkland Health & Hospital System in 2010. During her tenure here, Dr. Woodus was awarded with such accolades as distinguished teaching awards. She is board certified by the American Board of Obstetrics & Gynecology. After completing training, Dr. Woodus continued at UTSW as an Assistant Professor in Obstetrics & Gynecology where she participated on various residency & policy development committees.
Dr. Woodus is on the podcast today to discuss Woodus Obsterics & Gynecology which is committed to improving black maternal health outcomes:
"The maternal health and well-being of all mothers, particularly black and brown mothers, is under attack. The CDC defines health disparities as the preventable differences in the burden of disease, injury, violence or opportunities to achieve optimal health that are experienced by socially disadvantaged populations.
At Woodus Obstetrics & Gynecology, we recognize other POC experience disparities in maternal health outcomes, however black maternal health has been marginalized far too long. We refuse to be complicit by remaining silent.
It’s not, 'Only “Black Mamas Matter.'
It’s not, 'Black Mamas Matter More/Most.'
It’s, 'Black Mamas Matter, Too.'
Dr. Woodus and I discussed the importance of having a space where one can truly relax and focus on the business of giving birth. Dr. Woodus and I discussed how she wanted to create a space where Black women felt safe, secure, and understood. That her practice seeks to educate, elevate, and empower mothers is something to be celebrated. We can only hope her practice is the first of many more like it.

Martha Brockenbrough (rhymes with broken toe) is the author of two books for adults and numerous books for young readers (with several others on the way), including YA fiction and nonfiction, picture books, and a forthcoming chapter book series.
Martha is on the show today to discuss her book "Unpresidented: A Biography Of Donald Trump"
From no-holds-barred reality TV star to unlikely candidate, Donald J. Trump rose to the highest political office: President of the United States of America.
Learn fascinating details about his personal history, including:
-Why Trump’s grandfather left Germany and immigrated to America -Why Woodie Guthrie wrote a song criticizing Trump’s father -How Trump’s romance with Ivana began―and ended -When Trump first declared his interest in running for President
Richly informed by original research and illustrated throughout with photographs and documents, Unpresidented is a gripping and important read.
Martha and I discussed her research into Donald Trump's life for this book, and why she felt compelled to document his history for future generations. Coincidentally we recorded this episode on the eve of the 2020 Presidential Election. Knowing how the election ended up gives this episode a bit more hindsight perspective than we even knew when recording. I hope you'll enjoy this important discussion.

"I once interviewed a woman shot in the head by hijackers and left for dead on the tarmac.
I raced my bike against Greg LeMond in South Africa (and beat him). I played a tennis match against the world’s top-ranked wheelchair tennis player (and lost). I channeled a 330-pound, Samoan, retired NFL nose tackle who is gay (Esera Tuaolo, for his memoir). I played softball on snowshoes in the summertime (wood chips spread across the infield). I rapped a base hit off former Twins pitcher Rick Aguilera.
I listened to a nurse tell me the story of prying a shotgun shell out of Ernest Hemingway’s hand when he was intent upon killing himself. I profiled a woman who is a Roman Catholic priest. I attended a powwow with LGBTQ Native Americans. I interviewed a mortician in the room where she embalmed my father. I interviewed a 15-year-old boy in his hospital room after he tried to stop a school shooter.
All in a few days' work, stretching back to 1981, when I began freelancing as a senior in high school, same time I got clean and sober. My work has won a couple dozen awards and been nominated for a National Magazine Award and a Pulitzer Prize (but didn't win either of those).
Along the way, I have lived in Boise, Boston, Florence, London, Paris, and St. Paul. Today I'm at home in my native Minneapolis with my wife Maria, our two children, and a golden retriever named Maya. - John Rosengren
John Rosengren is a frequent sportswriter including authoring one of Joe's favorite books "Blades of Glory: The True Story Of A Young Team Bred To Win" about High School Hockey in Minnesota (think Friday Night Lights, but with Hockey).
John is on the show today to discuss writing Blades of Glory, his current book "A Clean Heart", and the effect sports can have on our kids.

Mitchell’s retelling of the biblical story of Joseph and his brothers interweaves the narrative with brief meditations that, with their Zen surprises, expand and illuminate the main themes. The engrossing tale that he has created will capture the hearts and minds of modern readers and show them that this ancient story can still challenge, delight, and astonish. With lyrical, witty, and vivid prose, Mitchell brings fresh insight to this foundational legend of betrayal and the power of forgiveness.

If you want to purchase Rob's latest book CLICK HERE
In his profound and deeply personal new book, EVERYTHING IS SPIRITUAL: Who We Are and What We're Doing Here, New York Times bestselling author Rob Bell explores the endless dynamic questions and connections that have shaped his life, providing powerful insight into understanding one's purpose and place in the world.
EVERYTHING IS SPIRITUAL is a brief history of how ideas about creation, love, and connection shaped the author—and can shape every one of us. In EVERYTHING IS SPIRITUAL, Bell explores the wonder and awe that comes from embracing where and who you come from, discovering in the wounds and regrets of life an invitation lurking in there to expand, much like the universe has been doing for 13 billion years.
EVERYTHING IS SPIRITUAL shows there is a space beyond all the parts and divisions and differences and polarization where you can see that it’s all one connected whole—and that it’s all rigged in favor of growth, expansion, and joy.
ROB BELL is the New York Times Bestselling author of ten books, including Velvet Elvis, Drops Like Stars, and Love Wins, which have been translated into 25 languages. His podcast, called RobCast, was named by iTunes Best of 2015. He's toured with Oprah, been profiled in The New Yorker, and in 2011 TIME Magazine named him one of the 100 Most Influential People in the World. He does regular shows at Largo, a comedy and music club in Los Angeles, where he lives with his wife Kristen and their three kids.

Joseph Shaw is an artist based in Newcastle upon Tyne. His immersive installations tackle the forced obsolescence of technology post-2000, bring to light issues of trustworthiness and distrust of objects and individuals, and question notions of causation and effect (or actions and their reactions) with a permeating dark humour. Shaw’s work has been shown in exhibitions both in the UK and internationally and he is one of the founding members of the Roundabout collective based in Munich, Germany. Shaw graduated from Newcastle University in 2015 and has since become a member of NewBridge Studios.

In this episode of the podcast Joe talks to Disclosure documentary director: Sam Feder.
Joe and Sam discuss transgender representation in media, and how we can all work together to raise more inclusive kids.
Be sure to go learn all about the documentary at http://www.disclosurethemovie.com/ and click below to go watch the movie on Netflix: https://www.netflix.com/title/81284247
DISCLOSURE is an unprecedented, eye-opening look at transgender depictions in film and television, revealing how Hollywood simultaneously reflects and manufactures our deepest anxieties about gender. Leading trans thinkers and creatives, including Laverne Cox, Lilly Wachowski, Yance Ford, Mj Rodriguez, Jamie Clayton, and Chaz Bono, share their reactions and resistance to some of Hollywood’s most beloved moments. Grappling with films like A Florida Enchantment (1914), Dog Day Afternoon, The Crying Game, and Boys Don’t Cry, and with shows like The Jeffersons, The L-Word, and Pose, they trace a history that is at once dehumanizing, yet also evolving, complex, and sometimes humorous. What emerges is a fascinating story of dynamic interplay between trans representation on screen, society’s beliefs, and the reality of trans lives. Reframing familiar scenes and iconic characters in a new light, director Sam Feder invites viewers to confront unexamined assumptions, and shows how what once captured the American imagination now elicit new feelings. Disclosure provokes a startling revolution in how we see and understand trans people.

Hi Listeners!
As I'm getting prepped for Episode #100 dropping on Monday, July 15 I've decided to re-release 3 of my favorite episodes from the first 100.
For this episode I'm re-visiting my conversation with Brian McLaren. Brian did a really deep dive into Christianity, what it means to be a person of the Christian faith in 2019 and how we need to work to bring people together instead of tearing each other down.
Realistically, this conversation could've gone on for HOURS as Brian continually dropped knowledge BUT we will have him on again soon.
Enjoy!

Happy Pride Month!
In honor of Pride Month I spoke to one of my dearest friends: Saffron! They are a non-binary individual who I've known for 13 years!
They were very kind to share their personal journey navigating gender norms and how they were christened Saffron on their "golden birthday".
In addition they also took the time to help provide education tools for parents who may have a hard time trying to navigate non-binary language with their children.
It's a really great episode, I think you're really going to enjoy it!

Hello listeners!
As Mother's Day has passed and Father's Day is next month we thought it would be fun to dig into some of the best (and worst!) examples of fatherhood TV has provided over the years.
To follow along with Joe & Tyler here is the article: https://www.tvinsider.com/gallery/best-worst-tv-dads/#1
Joe welcomes back friend of the show, Tyler Watson, to discuss the merits of these dads. They even dig into their favorite TV Moms of all time and Brian the Birth Guy is back with another "Ask the Birth Guy" segment.
This week Brian answers the question "What is Hypno Birth!?"

On this Rewind episode of the podcast we revisit July of 2017 when Joe became a dad for the second time.
Joe recalls his experience of using a hospital for his first child vs using a Birth Center for his second and also covers how he and his wife dealt with their newborn's tongue tie and what to look for/how to treat it if you're in a similar situation.
We also feature the "Ask the Birth Guy" segment where our resident Dude-La Brian Salmon tackles the question of "What to do when you're pregnant again after giving birth 3 months ago?"
If you have a specific question you want Brian to answer be sure to email the show and we'll have Brian answer it in an upcoming episode!

Happy Easter!
In this special edition of the podcast Joe has pulled clips that have, for whatever reason, never been heard before on the show!
All of these segments are from earlier in the podcast when Joe, John and Galan were all still hosting the show.
First, the guys talk to Charlie Herschel (who was on the show to discuss his parenting journey through surrogacy) about his experience playing Survivor over 10 years ago!
Second, the guys talk to photographer Alex J. Martin about his relationship with his dad. (Alex took the photos that were seen in the Dallas Observer back in June 2018)
Lastly, Joe and Galan share their personal stories dealing with Chicken Pox and how now that there is a vaccine it's interesting how their children will not have a similar experience to them.
No "Ask the Birth Guy" this week but it will return next week.
Enjoy!

Due to his love of birth and babies, Brian proudly entered childbirth education as a trained doula and San Antonio’s only actively practicing male doula (or “Dude-La” Brian says, being a surfer from California).

Joe is very excited to announce that starting soon there will be the debut of a new recurring segment on the show entitled "Ask the Birth Guy" where Brian will provide short advice on commonly asked questions. Enjoy!

In this episode of the podcast Joe talks to Pastor, Theologian, Activist and Dad: Brian McLaren. Joe and Brian touch on multiple topics including parenting and pastoring but the core of the conversation centers on what it means to be a Spiritual and Religious person in America in 2019. In a country that consistently seeks to divide people into "teams" Brian and Joe discuss how we might seek to reach across the aisle in order to find common ground and new path forward. It's a bit on the longer side, but well worth the listen. Enjoy!

In this episode of the podcast Joe talks to screenwriter, actor and playwright Mr. Jason Odell Williams. Joe came to know Jason through Brainchild! They discuss the many twists and turns Jason's career has had including writing for the TV Shows Brain Games and Brainchild but also his comedy play Church and State. It seems so hard in this day and age to sit down with people who have opposite viewpoints from us and have an honest conversation about what is needed in order to improve as a society. However, getting to know people one on one and having honest personable conversations is a step in the right direction. Jason Odell Williams intended to help start the discussion with his play Church and State and we intended to continue the discussion with this episode. Enjoy!
Lots of great content headed your way from the Dad 2.0 Summit soon!

Hi there listeners! So, this episode is a bit delayed coming out but we knew it needed to be released. Ever since Joe has been announced as a speaker at the Dad 2.0 Summit we've had a TON of new listeners and most of them just jumped right into the latest episode. However, we've received requests from those new listeners as to which older episodes they should check out, OR what is the best way to introduce their friends and family to the podcast? To answer all of those questions we've put together a little "Best of 2018" episode. We did this to highlight 6 specific segments from some of our most popular shows in 2018 which we feel does a satisfactory job pulling in all of the humor and heart the show is known for. Full disclosure, every single guest in 2018 was phenomenal and we wish we were able to take something from every one of them and put it in this show but alas, that would make the episode longer than it already is.
For now, enjoy this recap episode and get ready for our next Episode, set to drop this coming Thursday featuring the RETURN of Olympic Medalist and American Ninja Warrior Contestant: Jonathan Horton!

Happy New Year!
We want to thank you for sticking with us for our 3rd year of podcasting! There is a lot of great content already planned for 2019 so BUCKLE UP!
We want to kick things off with a Powerbomb of an episode here on the podcast!
In this episode of The DTALKS Podcast Joe talks to former WCW President, WWE personality and current co-host of the popular wrestling podcast: 83 Weeks; Eric Bischoff.
Joe and Eric touched on multiple topics throughout the course of Eric's career but honed in on exactly what types of trials and tribulations he went through being a parent while also running a high-profile business. Eric dug down deep to let us know how he was able to "have it all" and having an equal partner in the equation is the main reason he was able to get it done.
It's a fascinating dive into the world of professional wrestling where we, as viewers, only experience a tiny piece of it. Most people don't stop and wonder how these individuals are able to parent, travel, perform, etc. all the time. While Eric's experience is unique in that he was running the company he still highlights how it's nearly impossible to parent alone in this situation.
Sit back, relax and get ready for the first episode of what will be a stellar year for The DTALKS Podcast.

In this episode of The DTALKS Podcast Joe talks to Pat Doney of NBC 5 here in DFW.
Joe and Pat touched on several topics of interest including Pat's Broadcasting journey as well as his time working with the Cowboys and who his favorite player he's covered has been.
However, all of that pails in comparison to the personal journey Pat walked us through of his and his wife's decision to adopt their son and the personal struggles and triumphs they've endured and are planning for moving forward.
It's a very touching and heartfelt story this holiday season. Please, pour yourself some cider or hot chocolate and give a listen.
We also want to take a moment to say we know the holidays can be a tough time and if you're feeling sad, depressed or lonely please know you are not alone. There are tons of people out there who love and care about you. Please, check on your strong friends, check on your quiet friends and check on everyone else. Hold your family a little tighter and have a Merry Christmas.

There are a lot of resources out there and alcohol and the dangers of underage drinking are important subjects to discuss with your kid. As parents, we are the first exposure and line of influence our kids experience when it comes to drinking. It is our responsibility to have open communication about this, answer the questions we can, and find the answers we don't know.

Sometimes, life comes first and we were unable to record an episode, but it worked out because we have the opportunity to share one of the most impact 30 minute stretches of time in the history of our podcast.

In this episode of the DTALKS Podcast, the dads welcome back previous guest Cinto Ramos Jr. and his friend Frank Minikon Jr, COO of Melanin Origins, a company that publishes children's books, to discuss how we pass on what being a man means to our children and what our children should expect from the men in their lives.
There has been a recent news of a number of celebrities' acting inappropriately from a position of power and/or influence. Unfortunately, this kind of behavior extends beyond celebrities and it is important as parents and adults who have an influence on the children in our lives to teach them what to expect from adults, especially men.
This episode finds us briefly wading into a very deep pool of a subject. It is imperative that we teach our kids what is and is not OK for the adults in their lives to do, and that we always offer them a sanctuary in the turbulence of that life inevitably throws our way.

Featuring occasional "special host" Sylvie!
Your hosts are Galan, Joe, and John.
In this special interview mini-sode of The DTALKS Podcast, Joe interviews Lamar Austin, a New Hampshire father that was fired for attending the birth of his son. Lamar speaks about his reasoning, the opportunities this situation has presented him with, and there's a preview of an upcoming new segment called "Dad Stories".
This kind of content will normally be found during full episode releases of The DTALKS Podcast or to Patreon supporters, but when we were presented with the opportunity to interview Lamar so shortly after our episode on paternity leave, we felt that it was something that we needed to share.
Whichever side of the paternity leave issue you might fall on, I think we can all agree that idea of missing the birth of our children should not be a choice any parent should have to face.
We cannot thank Lamar enough for taking the time out of his day to share his story and thoughts with us. A new kid is a challenge for any family to handle, whether they are new to the game or starting the adventure again for the third or fourth time.
We hosts here at The DTALKS Podcast hope you enjoy this interview.
In this episode of the DTALKS Podcast, the dads talk about the pros and cons, perception around, experiences with, and other facets of paternity leave, particularly here in the US.
This episode also features our staple segments of "Ask the Dads" and "Dad Jokes" along with introducing our new segment, "Things You Should Check Out".
