sarah is so fucking perceptive. ive thought for years that they’re one of the most intelligent ppl w a platform now a days. sarah pls keep saying your piece love yall
I have come from Apple Podcasts to say “When you see the Grand Canyon….Deep” was the best description of an ADHDer that’s not interested in rocks I’ve ever heard 😂
One extra fact about the red white and Bethune van family is that they were the ones to help identify where to find Gabby Pettito. They drove by the white van on the side of the road and captured it on their road camera.
If you are a current college student reading and listening to books from your university data bases and online library is the best way to get some use out of your tuition. You can also watch free movies, read articles, and academic journals in video and writing.
31:39 *HOLY SHIT SARAH "ADHD/NEURODIVERGENT PEOPLE ARE INTEREST BASED, NEUROTYPICAL PEOPLE ARE IMPORTANCE BASED." YES LITERALLY OMG THIS MAKES SO MUCH SENSE, feels like something i already knew but couldn't put into words.*
Designer here! TOTO toilets are the best, Kendahl! Get one! They have many models but I say get the basic bidet, auto lid/flush, & heated seats…lots of the fancy extras don’t get used! Cool to have but save the $$ ❤
i was homeschooled for two years (i moved with my family to a country where it wouldve taken several hours to get to the closest international/english-speaking school), and it definitely wasnt the best but since it was only two years, and every other american family i knew also homeschooled, i feel like it was the best schooling situation (my mom also spend nearly a year lesson planning, and I learned more than i would have in middle school, plus i avoided the bullying). definitely wouldnt recommend it for longer than 3 years, and the stress it put on my mom tells me that these parents who homeschool more than one kid on the ROAD definitely isnt doing it well, or is absolutely worked to the bone
Obviously homeschooling is not for everyone. i was homeschooled my entire life and i actually was very thankful as someone who has multiple learning disabilities my mom made sure to take the time to build my foundational skills something which the public school system would not have done for me. i fully believe i would not have been able to go to college let alone graduate high school if i hadn’t had the one on one attention. it makes me very angry when i see people discarding the idea of homeschooling because it can have as much structure and socialisation as public school when done well. again i know this is a very privileged experience however i feel the need to share because it seems we often only hear horror stories of homeschooling gone wrong.
I’m a school social worker and y’all are absolutely right about kids being addicted to their devices! One of my students is addicted to her Chromebook to the point where she actually gets suicidal and violent almost immediately. She even physically assaulted one of our teachers who took away her Chromebook (for reading fanfic in class lmao). It’s ridiculous! I do think people are starting to realize that this is a bad thing and they shouldn’t just let their kids have screen time 24/7 because I have seen a decrease, but unfortunately the damage has already been done.
Very intrigued with the conversation about van life and intersection with third culture kids. I myself was born in another country and my family moved to the US when I was young. We moved around and so I had different friends in different cities, states and countries . We didn't. move around that regularlyy but I went to two different elementary schools, two middle schools and one high school. My experience at home was different to most kids I knew and my parents were much younger compared to other parents I knew. I also have autism which has really muddled my experience with growing up not understanding if I don't fit in because of autism or not having solid roots / foundation. I never had a local history or family ties to the area I was in and it's made me a lot more able to look at different perspectives but also I feel pretty unrooted which has made me a lot more passionate about living in a community and connecting to my neighbors!
There are snobs in any and every hobby club/group. Someone will always claim they heard/watched/knew/read/made/cooked something before you did and "better" because of XYZ.
I think I finally understood why I am not a big fan of going to popular tourist spots now that Kendahl was talking about the traveling and going to museums and stuff.
yeah I definitely agree about a lot, but NEVER tell a child to stop crying. if it's a sad cry, or a tantrum, you let them cry. you remove them from the environment to a private or outside area and try to talk it out. telling kids not to cry is super, SUPER damaging. there is no "inappropriate" place for a child to cry. love you babes!
I'm late to this episode but have to comment in the hopes you guys see this. I was a homeschooled pastor's kid and this podcast is literally helping me so much on my deconstruction journey. Love you besties
If you are ever feeling some fiction, check out Silas House. He’s a gay writer from eastern Kentucky & is basically the patron saint of Appalachian/Southern queers. I’m almost finished with Same Sun Here, which he wrote with Neela Vaswani. It’s such a good but short book, I’ll be so sad to finish it 😭 Lark Ascending & Southernmost are also amazing novels 📚💕
Sarah I love your reading goal! Every year I try to read at least 100 Btw- the other week there was a pigeon in my little library! Scared the shit out of me! And libraries are the absolute best!! Most people don’t know you can also check out household items and tools. So much more than just books. Plus. Knowledge is power!
Besides getting to do school in my pjs, (religious) homeschooling sucked. The silver lining was at 16, I graduated myself and started going to community college.
12:20 Fun Fact! (Is it really that fun?) All of that stuff exists because Japan is facing a population bottleneck issue! Japan’s life expectancy is SO long that their elderly population significantly outweighs their younger population. When a country has a high population of elderly people, their workforce is generally small because for the most part, elderly people do not work. So that’s why the Japanese government is implementing all these family-friendly public amenities on a national level. It’s a tactic they’re using so young people feel motivated to have children. And what will those children do? Eventually become a part of the Japanese work force!
as someone who was homeschooled and went to a christian co-op, the "kids kind of need to know that they're weird to build confidence" is SO. TRUE. thankfully, I went to a public elementary school, so I feel like I got that self-awareness that the other kids didn't. it was a really odd experience. the cool kids were harry potter theater nerds, the weird kids were the ones who listened to music with curse words, weren't christian, and wore modern clothes. I can't imagine growing up completely homeschooled, and never meeting other kids that aren't a part of the conservative group your parents like. I feel like they're in for a lot of world-shattering moments later on in life.
hi! I have Plantar fasciitis too, im only 17 so i do a lot of random crap that involves running, climbing, whatever. often times i had to use a cane and luckily i am recovering a bit now. i started wearing a shoe brand that didnt press on the wrong part of my heel, they're oofos. i cant guarantee they'd work for jordan, but i do like the croc-like shoes they have for around my house since going barefoot kills my feet!
Text to speech technology is a life altering accommodation for me that has repeatedly been denied, and it’s often driven by the mentality that it’s not good to rely on audio readings exclusively anyways. I’ve literally been kicked out of departments after not being accommodated for this. Please be careful with saying people shouldn’t be using audio exclusively, especially when many ppl (like me) follow the words visually when reading (yet I’d be hopeless without the audio). Idc how old the person is, this can make the difference between reading and not reading at all.
TY FOR THIS, I hate the audiobook debate and their comments made me sad. I am legally blind in one eye and I can only eye read for so long and I'm constantly seeing that my main method of reading isn't valid. It sucks.
Two things can be true at the same time. I don't think they were making a statement about disabled people, the argument is that people who don't need to rely on audio books should not.
Yes!! Listening and reading along with Harry Potter audio cassettes/CDs was how I was able to work through my dyslexia as a child. It made me understand where my brain was making mistakes and identifying inconsistencies in my abilities. Audio is SO important
I am learning the concertina and I used to feel a tiiiiny bit bad about the sound of my Irish tunes honking through my neighbours wall (office hours)…but their kids are homeschooled and time is an irrelevant concept to them and their daughter practices her viola at 11pm onwards so now I honk away guilt free!
I've heard of the family with the sick kid moving into the RV, and I'm pretty sure the kid had made a full recovery before they went on the road. I haven't watched them though, so that could be wrong.
I get that this podcast is partially about your personal internet fixations but this is like your 6th family vloggers related episode. It’s getting kinda stale
@@skunkskiestink6620 there are at least 7 episodes related to family vlogging and considering the podcast only had 60 episodes at this point, that’s a lot
@@thomasdegroat6039 there are 3. one about mommy vloggers, one about family vlogging in general (both over a year old) and this one about specifically van life family vloggers. there’s one on the labrant family and 2 about ruby frank’s but those are more specific controversies, like ruby franke was literally just arrested for trying to kill her kids and torturing them so while technically yes she is a mommy vlogger the episode isn’t about that exactly. you can literally watch any of their 50+ hour long free podcast episodes that have nothing to do with family vloggers if it’s that annoying.
@@skunkskiestink6620 just because they’re more specific doesn’t mean they’re not about family vloggers. That’s still 7 episodes of them repeating the same opinions (6 of you don’t want to count the van life episode). And secondly, just because it’s free content doesn’t mean it’s free from criticism. I have every right as a fan to voice concerns, especially in a neutral forum like the UA-cam comments.

Sarah explaining the third culture kids topic had me eating my lunch and feeling like she was talking to me directly lol
I always learn something new from Sarah. They are so perceptive and well-rounded in their knowledge!

Audiobooks also fire the same part of your brain as physically reading!

That’s so sad.. it’s awful when parents think they’re doing right by their kid by never making them uncomfortable but then they just create addicts

I didn’t realize how expensive saxophones are!!
One thing I’ve learned from plantars is always go to your dermatologist instead of a foot specialist. They will drag shit out on purpose.
Dermatologist?

"Oh there's a photo of them... and they've all got fiddles"
That killed me
Thank you for talking about the third culture kids!!!
I’m a middle school band teacher and I too think the recorder should be deleted
I LOVE THIS POD!!!!! ❤❤❤❤

Watching this on my iPad.
I'm dealing with plantar fasciitis right now, and it's debilitating. I don't know what to do, nothing seems to help with the pain at all.
Buried the leak had me cryingggg because why did I think Sarah said leek the vegetable not leak 😭
When Sarah said Ruby Frankie I thought she said Grace and Frankie so I was comfused
need an episode on love is blind👀
id love to listen to Naomi’s music but i cant find them on Spotify, someone help ty (:
These kids have to have zero friends, like they meet kids at a camp ground, become friends, then never see them again that has to be so horrible
I want to know how many hours a day Sarah reads!
I googled it. The saxophone silencer mute thingy is totally shaped like elephant placenta
30:50 *refurbished*
Nah the amount of times Sarah looks at the camera. She KNOWS
Knows what?

You both need to come to England. 150 years old is NOT old for buildings!

Is anybody else getting tired of Kendall’s parenting advice or is it just me?
i mean maybe don’t watch episodes about parenting if you don’t want to hear her thoughts on parenting?
No offense to Kendall but I really miss Sarah and Brittany’s show 😢
I like both tbh!
big same :/
I love you two🩷thx for another funny interesting podcast
