I have my fantastic "Dear Nina" assistant producer, Rebekah Jacobs, with me this week to crack open a listener's anonymous letter about DISCRETION.Discretion is that gray zone between gossip and harmless chatter. Rebekah and I discuss how much we can expect friends to know intuitively what stays private and what's OK to share.We're not talking about friends who gossip incessantly about you or reveal a big secret. That's easier to answer! Keep...

Episode 40: Per Brodal - om seksårsreformen, nevromyter og lekens betydning
I jule-episoden 2024 snakker vi med professor emeritus i nevrobiologi Per Brodal, som sammen med psykolog Charlotte Lunde skrev boka "Lek og læring i et nevroperspektiv - hvordan gode intensjoner kan ødelegge barns lærelyst" (2022). Denne boka, og temaene den tar opp, har vakt stor interesse i det pedagogiske fag- og praksisfeltet. Ofte blir naturvitenskapelig kunnskap, spesielt fra medisinfeltet, brukt som argumenter for bestemte typer læring, metoder, programmer og aktiviteter som skal optimalisere læring for barn og unge. Teorier om hjernehalvdelenes forskjell, læringsstiler og intelligenser er ofte misforståtte og forenklede "nevromyter". Vi snakker om det s...

In this episode we kōrero with Dr. Adrian Gray, an addiction specialist. We delve into the complexities surrounding mental health, societal influences, and the transformative power of psychedelic therapy. Speaking about the rise of anxiety and depression in modern society, Dr Adrian Gray underscores how psychedelic therapies offer a 'reset', a refreshing perspective that extends beyond traditional Western medicine. As we explore substances like Ayahuasca and LSD for therapeutic use, the conversation bridges the gap between their indigenous roots and their clinical applications in contemporary settings.

Episode 40 - Wishes (Knock Three Times and Wishes)
This month we're reading Knock Three Times, by Cressida Cowell, and Wishes, by Muon Thi Van and Victo Ngai. Knock Three Times is the third book of a four part series, but anytime is a good time to jump on board thanks to Cressida Cowell's chatty and unnamed narrator. We praise David Tennant's performance of the audiobook very highly, but you'll want the paper book too, so you can look at the pictures. It's a silly adventure story, it's also surprisingly poignant about the difficult relationship between children and their parents. Wishes is a...
