Episode 218: Motivated Reasoning in Teaching Abortion with Rebecca Geller and Jamie Gravell

Grumpy and the Gang - EP01

Move-in Mayhem is my tongue-in-cheek tribute to one of the Pioneer Valley’s busiest and most colorful traditions: the annual UMass Amherst student move-in. Every late August, Route 9 and 116 overflow with cars packed to the brim, families juggling boxes, and students starting fresh adventures.

This song captures the traffic jams, the closed roads, the laughter, the stress—and the energy that comes when tens of thousands of new and returning students breathe life back into the Valley. From early check-ins to the official rush between August 27 and September 1, “Move-in Mayhem” tells the story in a playful, folksy way that locals will recognize instantly.

I recorded it with the spirit of community in mind: a mix of humor, observation, and a bit of empathy for everyone stuck in those long lines of cars. Whether you’re a student, a parent, or a Pioneer Valley resident bracing for the annual gridlock, this one’s for you.

Growing up in different cultures, Muskaan and Beaw have different stories of how they’ve become allies. Muskaan and Beaw also talk about potential resistance and backlash of being an ally, and some tips on being a supportive ally are shared.

Voices of Us Ep. 9: Beaw and Muskaan: Be an Ally: Voice Out for Your Queer Interantional Friends

‘Queer Enough: an honest conversation stereotypes, screen time, and self-definition’

About Voices of Us:
'Voices of Us' (VOU) is a podcast that shares authentic stories from LGBTQIA+ international students, alumni and allies. 

In this episode of Voices of Us, queer international creatives from the film industry, Ayuka and Patitta, reflect on how media shaped — and sometimes distorted — their sense of identity. From first queer glimpses to global cultural gaps, this conversation peels back the layers of representation: what sticks, what’s missing, and what still needs to be told. Whether you’ve seen "yourself" on screen or not, this episode invites you to think about how media not only reflects queerness — but also performs, pressures, and sometimes rewrites it. 

About the host: 
Feifei Liao was born and raised in Sichuan, China. She is multi-passionate, multi-disciplinary and multi-lingual, with the energy to light up a room. As a founder of a couple of social enterprises, creative producer, facilitator, multi-cultural and community development advisor, dancer, mental health speaker, recovery educator, and advocate for inclusion, diversity and equity, bringing people together through creativity, stories and shared experience is Feifei’s heartland.

Tyler + Tate unpack how culture, history, and even personal perspective play a role in understanding the Bible. From ancient context to modern-day relevance, you’ll see how different viewpoints can shape the way people approach faith and spirituality. Whether you’re studying religion, curious about big questions, or just want a fresh take, this episode brings thoughtful conversation and new insights you won’t want to miss.

Lenses of Context

“The Code to Obey” is a conscious rap that highlights the gap between traditional education and real-world skills. It addresses how millions of learners are taught standardised subjects that often do not prepare them for employment, entrepreneurship, or self-sufficiency. The song explores the impact of AI and automation on jobs, the rise of surveillance, and the challenges young people face in a rapidly changing world.

At its core, the track is a call to action: to focus on hands-on learning, practical skills, and creative problem-solving. It encourages listeners to build, grow, and sustain their futures despite societal and technological pressures. With a mix of awareness, motivation, and empowerment, the song champions education that equips people to thrive—not just survive.

The Code to Obey

Founded by musician and teacher Adam Sweet, Sweet Songs is more than a record label — it’s a home for music that uplifts, inspires, and connects. We believe every great song deserves to be heard and remembered.
