WORD UP with Dani Katz episodes

July 19, 2023 From Alt. Journalism to SEL with LA Weekly Founder Jay Levin
Full disclosure: This was a weird podcast. I had invited my friend and colleague, LA Weekly founder, Jay Levin on the podcast to talk about censorship and the social-emotional learning work he's been doing since leaving journalism. Truth be typed, I was way more interested in talking about the state of journalism, given that Jay had given birth to the coolest alt weekly the country has seen (I say this totally objectively, despite having written for the paper for nine years ;) ), and is now seeing the world through a very different lens than I am. I guess I thought that a 1:1 conversation would snap us out of our various angles of mind control, and allow us to hear and grok one another's perspectives, and forge the way for common ground and healing.Spoiler alert: It didn't go down like this.I am breaking from my usual format of putting the second half of our conversation behind the paywall that is my Locals and Patreon communities for a couple reasons: 1. I think the contrast between the first and second half offers some really valuable insight on the barriers our populace is currently having when it comes to understanding one another.2. Jay was far more interested in talking about his SEL journey than in journalism. I'd toyed with the idea of posting the SEL half of the conversation as Part 1, and the journalism conversation as Part 1. But, I didn't really flow. So, in an effort to honor Jay's time and efforts, I decided to post the whole show for the public, so that the largest possible audience could learn more about his SEL work.That being said, I still encourage you to support me on Locals and/or Patreon, as your support goes a long way in allowing me to continue to put out content.

I'll be back with my usual cast of edge-pushing rebels next week. Pinky swear. Correction: I don't know for a fact that Matt Taibi was kicked off of PayPal, though I do know he's written about journalists being banned from PayPal.

July 05, 2023Dying Well + Rebelling with Dignity with Stephen Jenkinson.
It was SUCH an honor and a pleasure to exchange words and thoughts and smiles with Stephen Jenkinson. I have very few role models. Perhaps Hypatia or Joan of Arc, but given that they both died before I took incarnation this go around, I have no idea if the way they rolled would really, truly jive with me. Stephen Jenkinson is one of a handful of contemporaries who genuinely inspire me. His work had a powerful effect on me back in 2014, when I was supporting my friend – another Stephen – through the dying process. I have since watched his documentary (“Griefwalker”), read some of his books, and seen him perform with his band. I am consistently and actively struck by his wisdom, humility, dignity, presence, charisma, and – of course – word wizardry. This conversation was such a treat for me, despite the nervousness, and the time constraints, which had me resisting about a dozen urges to press into Stephen’s responses, and dive way deeper, opting instead to keep the conversation moving on a more horizontal trajectory. As I’d expected, Stephen blew my mind, gave me mucho to think about, and graciously endured my questions and perspectives. I trust you will enjoy this chat as much I as did having it.
