Former DreamWorks animator, Andrew Young, exposes how beloved animated films have become tools of social engineering, subtly shifting from character-driven stories to politically charged narratives that undermine family values and traditional storytelling. We trace Andrew's journey from Hollywood success to cultural whistleblower as he reveals how the animation, media, & education industries now shape young minds and foster division through ideological agendas. The conversation culminates with Andrew's advocacy to combat online child exploitation, highlighting the dangers of sextortion, Section 230, and the urgent need to protect children in the digital age. This episode is a must-listen for parents, educators, & creators determined to defend truth, creativity, and the hearts of the next generation.

Listen in as we explore the concept of "minimum viable days" in homeschooling, a strategy designed to maintain consistency and sanity on those challenging days when just keeping the kids fed feels like an accomplishment. Drawing inspiration from seasoned homeschooling experts Pam Barnhill and Cindy Rollins, we discuss how to identify the bare minimum tasks, such as reading, writing, and math, that can make even the toughest days feel productive. This approach ensures that core learning continues despite life's unpredictability, helping to achieve homeschooling goals with peace of mind. We also touch on the importance of personalizing this concept to fit each family's unique needs and avoiding the pitfalls of comparison.
