He's 10, I'm Not!

Jameson and Alessandra, cousins and buddies, talk about their experiences with being shy, new schools, and life. The He's 11, I'm Not took the podcast on the road to Auburn University to enjoy time with Alessandra, drink some lemonade, and shop a little. A great conversation between two cousins and a very proud Aunt/Grambo!

Alessandra's exciting movie project: Rolling Loud, out now in theaters

Please join us as we talk about a world full of cameras. From walking to school to driving to work, license plate reader cameras are showing up in many places. We talk about what is good and what may not be so good as surveillance expands across the country. A tough topic for someone who is 11 and someone who is much older.

TRUST BUT VERIFY!

Jameson talks about watching CNN10 with Coy Wire and hearing about Russia's attack on Ukraine and the impact of war on the climate. Jo talks a little about projects at work, then Jameson closes out with reading a children's book titled Here We Are by Oliver Jeffers

We open this episode with a simple conversation about school, drum lessons, and life goals, and then close with a more complex discussion of the political world we live in. This is an experiment for us, and we hope you will help by listening and offering topics for discussion or ideas to get more kids involved in podcasting.
