Ash Said It® Show

In a landmark interview on The Ash Said It Show, Jennifer Berger, the visionary Founder and Executive Director of the non-profit Ready Set Screen, introduced a transformative solution to the modern parenting crisis: The Social Media Driver’s License. As a veteran teen advocate and Media Literacy Expert, Berger argues that in 2026, handing a child a smartphone without formal training is as hazardous as handing them car keys without a permit.

With millions of young people receiving first-time devices daily, particularly during high-use periods like Spring Break, this first-of-its-kind certification program provides a vital framework for digital safety and emotional intelligence.

The year 2026 marks a critical tipping point for digital wellness. While smartphones have existed for nearly 20 years, the current landscape of sophisticated algorithms and AI-driven content has made "self-teaching" a thing of the past.

Berger highlights that the 10-14 age range is the absolute "critical window" for media literacy intervention. During these formative years, the brain’s social reward centers are highly active, making children more susceptible to the dopamine loops of "likes" and "shares" before their impulse control is fully developed.

The cornerstone of the Ready Set Screen curriculum is the "Power of the Pause." If a child masters only one skill, Berger emphasizes it must be the transition from reactive posting to reflective sharing—learning to evaluate the intent and long-term impact of their digital footprint before it becomes permanent.

This proactive approach is especially vital during the Spring Break screen time surge. Berger advises parents to watch for the primary "red flag" of emotional volatility: if a child exhibits intense irritability or anxiety when disconnected, it indicates a deep-seated dependency that requires immediate recalibration of their relationship with technology.

Looking toward the future of middle school education, Berger envisions a world where the Social Media Driver’s License is a universal standard. By treating digital access as an earned privilege backed by competency training—much like a sixteen-year-old’s driving permit—we can shift the parenting paradigm from surveillance to empowerment.

Through Jennifer Berger’s leadership, the goal is clear: ensuring the next generation of digital natives is not just connected, but protected and prepared for the complexities of the 21st-century social landscape.

Get ready for a nostalgia trip that hits right in the feels! We’re diving deep into the legacy of the visionary founders behind The New Zoo Revue as they celebrate an incredible 54th anniversary. Broadcast in syndication from 1972 to 1977—with a massive cult following that kept reruns on air well into the 1990s—this show wasn't just another kids' program. It was a masterclass in emotional intelligence before "EQ" was even a buzzword.

While other shows in the 70s were laser-focused on the "ABC’s and 123’s" of Sesame Street, Douglas "Doug" Momary had a different dream. He, along with his talented wife Emmy Jo, envisioned a world where children learned how to navigate the complexities of human (and animal!) emotions. As the show’s creators and stars, they brought a genuine warmth to the screen that focused on relationships, cooperation, and empathy, proving that teaching a child how to feel is just as important as teaching them how to count.

Adding to the show's legendary status was the visual flair provided by none other than Sid and Marty Krofft. The masters of puppet design were responsible for creating the iconic costumes for Freddie the Frog, Henrietta Hippo, and Charlie the Owl. These larger-than-life characters became the faces of a movement that taught us it’s okay to be ourselves and work through our problems together. Even 54 years later, The New Zoo Revue remains a gold standard for educational television, holding a permanent spot in the hearts of millions.

"It wasn't just a show; it was a conversation about being a better human."

Happy 54th Anniversary to the entire cast and crew! Your legacy of kindness continues to inspire new generations of creators and dreamers.

In a timely and heartwarming segment of The Ash Said It Show, host Ash Brown sits down with Deborah from Helen Sanders CatPAWS to discuss the urgent needs of the feline community during Peak Kitten Season. As shelters reach capacity, the organization is championing a unique movement this May: embracing "Cat Stepmom" energy for Mother's Day.

🌸 The Mother’s Day Mission: Saving Lives Through Fostering

While traditional Mother's Day celebrations focus on permanent bonds, Helen Sanders CatPAWS is highlighting the life-saving power of the "temporary parent." Deborah explains that becoming a kitten foster—or a "Cat Stepmom"—is one of the most effective ways to combat euthanasia rates in public shelters.

The Commitment: Fostering typically lasts only a few weeks until kittens are old enough for adoption.

The Experience: It involves welcoming a "tiny chaotic dependent" into your home, providing socialization, and ensuring they are healthy.

The Reward: While "100% getting attached" is a common side effect, the transition of a foster kitten to a forever home is a profound contribution to animal welfare.

📉 Why Fosters are Urgently Needed Right Now

"Kitten Season" refers to the time of year (typically spring through autumn) when feline births spike, overwhelming local rescue systems.

Shelter Overflow: Organizations like Helen Sanders CatPAWS work tirelessly to pull at-risk cats from public facilities in Seal Beach, Long Beach, and North Orange County.

The Bottleneck: The number of cats rescued is directly limited by the number of available foster homes.

Call to Action: Deborah emphasizes that no experience is necessary; CatPAWS provides the support and "Kitten Care Kits" needed to succeed.

In this standout episode of The Ash Said It Show, Audrey, the visionary founder of Illuminated Threads, reveals how she is transforming intimidating data into high-fashion "conversation starters."

By bridging the gap between data visualization and textile design, Audrey is creating a new category of visual activism that makes complex social issues feel personal, approachable, and stylish.

While traditional spreadsheets and digital charts often feel cold or clinical, Audrey argues that fashion is the ultimate human medium. When a data set—such as mental health statistics or environmental shifts—is translated into a garment, it loses its "dry" nature and gains a heartbeat.

This wearable advocacy invites curiosity rather than defensiveness, allowing the wearer to embody a story and the observer to engage with it in a non-threatening, tactile way.
The creative journey from spreadsheet to stitching is a meticulous process of "Visual Translation."

Audrey identifies datasets with significant community impact and maps them directly onto design elements. For example, stitch frequency may represent a specific growth rate, color gradients may visualize demographic shifts, and geometric patterns might reflect urban development data.

This Data Artistry ensures that every piece is first and foremost a high-fashion garment that people want to wear, with the profound truth of the data serving as its structural foundation.

Audrey shared how these pieces function as "tools for dialogue" in everyday life, recounting a powerful story of a customer whose outfit led to a spontaneous, ten-minute "classroom moment" about education equity in a grocery store aisle.

By turning sidewalks into spaces for social discourse, Illuminated Threads empowers the wearer to be an ambassador for change without the pressure of initiating difficult conversations—the clothing does the "heavy lifting."

Every collection is rooted in strategic nonprofit partnerships. These organizations provide the "soul" of the data, while Audrey provides the "body."

The aesthetic of the final garment is directly influenced by the partner’s mission: fluid, organic shapes for ocean conservation or structured, architectural lines for urban renewal. This ensures that the fashion is a literal, visual representation of the nonprofit’s core mission.

Finally, Audrey is redefining advocacy for the next generation. As younger audiences move toward experience-driven activism, she is shifting the paradigm of traditional awareness campaigns.

By leaning into visual activism and aesthetic "drops," she is teaching Gen Z and Alpha that they can be deeply informed and fashionable simultaneously, making advocacy a lifestyle choice and a core part of personal

The energy was absolute fire when Atlanta R&B singer-songwriter JaQuandice stopped by for an exclusive sit-down on The Ash Said It Show. As a professional choreographer and creative director, she brought a 360-degree perspective on what it takes to thrive as an independent artist in 2026. We got deep into the weeds on her creative process, the influence of Atlanta’s Trap-Soul culture, and the raw discipline required to build a lasting musical legacy.

We kicked things off talking about that unmistakable Atlanta music scene energy. She credits the city’s unique DNA for the specific sound of her new single, "How To Love." To her, Atlanta music has to have a certain rhythmic bounce to survive the streets but enough soul to actually mean something. It’s that perfect marriage of grit and velvet that she’s completely mastered in her latest release.

One of the most fascinating reveals was how her brain works as a professional choreographer while she’s songwriting. She actually visualizes the dance moves and the "pocket" of the movement while the lyrics are still coming together. If she can’t feel the dance in the words, the song isn't finished. She’s essentially building an entire visual world before the track even hits the mixing board.

She also dropped some serious gems about the stage discipline she gained from performing Beyoncé and Janet Jackson tributes. It wasn’t just about nailing the iconic steps; it was about the stamina, the eye contact, and the elite mindset of a headliner. She’s now applying that high-level precision to her own live shows, ensuring every hand placement and vocal run is intentional.

When we got into the heart of "How To Love," she didn't hold back on the message behind the music. In a world dominated by messy "situationships" and modern romance hurdles, her goal is to inspire listeners to stop negotiating their standards. It’s an anthem for anyone ready to trade "it’s complicated" for real substance. Interestingly, she mentioned that being that vulnerable in her songwriting was the most challenging part of the project—even more than the choreography or the vocal production.

Looking ahead five years, the goal isn't just a viral moment; it's a legacy. She wants the JaQuandice brand to be synonymous with timeless storytelling and independent artist power. She isn’t just making hits; she’s creating an inheritance for the next generation of R&B.

Web: http://www.jaquandice.com/

JaQuandice is a premier Atlanta-based R&B singer-songwriter, choreographer, and creative director redefining the landscape of modern soul. Known for her "cinematic storytelling," she seamlessly blends the nostalgic essence of 90s R&B with a contemporary Gen Z perspective. Since her debut in 2017, JaQuandice has emerged as a powerhouse in the independent music scene, gaining global traction with hits like "Tell Me" and "How To Love."

Her musical foundation was built on discipline and authentic craft long before the era of viral algorithms. Beginning her journey in 2010 during high school, she spent years developing a "pressure-tested" artistry in the competitive Atlanta music scene.

After sharpening her voice with acclaimed covers of artists like 6lack and 50 Cent, she released her breakout single "Top Back" in 2017. By 2026, her catalog has reached significant milestones, with her single "How To Love" entering heavy rotation on iHeartRadio’s 99.7 DA HEAT MIAMI, broadcasting her signature "female empowerment" sound to international audiences.

Currently, JaQuandice is leading the R&B X Supreme mix show on 99.7 DA HEAT MIAMI, further solidifying her role as a tastemaker in the genre. Her 2026 evolution—marked by a sharper pen and a deeper stage presence—signals an arrival rather than a comeback. She continues to advocate for independent artist ownership and the preservation of soulful, message-driven music.

Andy Hnilo’s appearance on The Ash Said It Show was a masterclass in resilience and the power of uncompromising quality. Reflecting on the life-altering accident that crushed his jaw and scarred his face, Andy revealed that the non-negotiable backbone of his entire line is a mineral-rich blend of four specific clays, with Bentonite being the absolute "miracle" foundation. During his recovery, he turned his kitchen into a lab, discovering that these clays acted like a "magnetic meal" for the skin, pulling out impurities while infusing it with life-saving minerals.

This discovery wasn't just a part of his healing; it became the proprietary core of his flagship Clay Mask, a formula he refused to dilute even when faced with the daunting reality of traditional retail margins. Andy shared that the hardest business decision he ever made was choosing to fund his own growth and keep ingredient concentrations at "artisan-grade" levels rather than taking the easier path of using fillers to please big-box distributors. By prioritizing product integrity over a quick profit, he ensured that every bottle of Alitura contains the same potency that healed his own skin on his journey back to the runway.

For those feeling lost in the noise of the beauty industry, Andy advocated for a lifestyle that extends far beyond the bathroom mirror, focusing on three essential pillars that don't cost a dime. First, he emphasizes the power of direct sunlight, recommending 10 to 15 minutes of daily exposure to help the body convert cholesterol into vital hormones and naturally treat skin disorders. Second, he champions a "clean internal environment" by switching to an all-organic, whole-food diet, noting that thin-skinned fruits and factory-farmed meats often carry a toxic load that manifests as skin inflammation.

Finally, he stresses the importance of eliminating environmental toxins by using a high-quality shower filter, protecting the skin from absorbing the chlorine and heavy metals found in tap water. As the industry leans into AI and high-tech personalization, Andy remains grounded in the belief that "Naturals" will always be the future because the human body is biologically designed to recognize and absorb ingredients from the earth.

He views tech as a tool to help people find the right plants, but he maintains that the most sophisticated "technology" is the raw, nutrient-dense power of nature itself—a philosophy that keeps Alitura timeless in a rapidly evolving world.
