Just a spoon full of humor makes our anxiety go down.  Laughter decreases stress hormones and increases immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies and triggers the release of endorphins, the body's natural feel-good chemicals. Simply put, we all need to laugh.

This week on The Spark, my guest is award-winning comedian Alicia Dattner, as she speaks with us about her life, laughter, and the messy, wonderful art of embracing our humanity.

"To Thine Own Self Be True"  -William Shakespeare

In our first Boys Beyond the Ball episode, I am talking to Jason Peck director of theater at St. Luke’s School as well as the founder and co-artistic director of Thrown Stone Theater Company.  We are chatting about what it is like participating in theater growing up and the positive impact that it can have on kids today. We discuss everything from what goes into a production, the myriad of skills that theater can develop (hello, empathy!), specific challenges boys face and how theater can help boys overcome those challenges.

This week I got to dish with teacher, mother and lover of life Judy Kerner. We talk about Judy's unconventional path to parenthood, ruminate over Gillette's new toxic masculinity ad, and learn about three modern book lovers who are bringing back indie-stye Bookmobiles to communities that lack access to queer authors and writers of color. We also welcomed two new Hall of Famers who both work in the entertainment industry, including a young woman who started the Chinese #MeToo movement. (Music by Ava Luna and Loyalty Freak Music.)

The crew spends some time in the desert. Cooyopa gets bit, Buster throws a match, Iparick steals a single thing, DJ Calypso makes an appearance.
