This week we're revisiting our talk with Judge Nelson (Tanya's first boss out of law school!) and Acting President of Santa Clara University Lisa Kloppenberg.

Tanya talks to Mallory about the challenges of making baby formula in the US; the formula shortage; judging new parents’ feeding decisions (don’t do this) and providing resources for families in times of crisis.

Tanya talks to the I’m Charlie Walker and Sorry to Bother You actor about the power of telling hometown stories; the drive that arises from navigating external obstacles; and the joy of finding her calling in art.

Tanya talks to the culinary phenom about overcoming obstacles and her path to success.

Tasting History with Max Miller takes viewers on a tasty tour through time. Listen to how Max parlayed pandemic uncertainty into YouTube success.

Tanya talks to David Bianchi, attorney for Danny Santulli and the Santulli family, about the fraternity hazing that left his client blind and unable to walk or speak.

Tanya talks to the CEO and Founder of Think of Us about his personal journey through foster care; redesigning the foster care system; and healing childhood wounds through “radical service.”

Do you care? Should you? Lisa Rein did a story on the penalties the Social Security Administration imposed on those who broke the rules, and an independent watchdog group opened an investigation. When cheaters cheat, do rules still matter? And are all cheaters treated equally?

Special Re-release: Tanya talks to New York Times reporter Emily Bazelon and former U.S. Senate Judiciary Committee member Russ Feingold about historical pushback against perceived Court excesses; reforming the Court and how we got to 9; and the heightened politicization of the confirmation process.

Tanya talks to the author of The Devil Never Sleeps: Learning To Live in an Age of Disasters about the January 6 hearings; the ongoing insurrection and the way to defuse it; and about how thinking ahead can help us “fail safer” when bad things happen.
