Brian Brately and I have fun with auto corrects, but he starts the episode by talking about his recent trip to the Grand Canyon.

After a long absence I return to the podcast, in part to explain why I was gone: the recent passing of my mother. This is very off brand for the show but I felt the need to talk about it on Mother's Day. If you've gone through something similar or if you even just knew my mom, please give it a listen.

Sometimes I receive emails from people with truly inspiring stories, requesting to be on this podcast.  The latest of whom is Dr. Jenn Pratt, who spent her childhood as a cancer patient, and had a wish granted by The Make A Wish Foundation.  Hear how she's gone from that to becoming a doctor, and working with Make A Wish to help children who are going through what she experienced.

Two things seem to come up when I talk with Alex Gonzalez, our mutual love of powerlifting, and superheroes.  What was meant to be a conversation about how the superhero he created is coming to life, turns into a chat about our mutual love of Batman.  Off brand for the podcast but still a lot of fun.

While taking a holiday break from the podcast, I talked a lot on Tiktok about the ableism in the Christmas movie Elf, and how the character of Buddy may be autistic.  I settle this with Nikki Guthrie, who appreciates the movie, but also has an autistic son.

What began as an episode about why something was said to Tennille Houston by another person with a disability, ended up being more about how she felt about what was said.
