In this first episode of Podcast on Wheels, your host Johanna Calderon discusses the critical need for comprehensive sexuality education for children and individuals with disabilities. She passionately argues that parents should not shield their disabled children from discussions about sex, emphasizing that urges are normal and that keeping them in a "bubble" leaves them vulnerable to unprotected sex, sexually transmitted infections (STIs), and unwanted pregnancies. She shares personal experiences and anecdotes, including knowing someone who contracted an STI because their parents refused to discuss protection, and stresses the importance of consent and safety.

Joe is out today!

Omar and Chris engage in s wide-ranging, candid, and often humorous conversation, where they avoid politics and discuss the intersection of religion and personal values, criticizing the idea that morality must be dictated by institutions. They express skepticism toward the college education system, advocating for faster, more career-focused learning and proposing practical life skills and emotional maturity courses as graduation requirements. The dialogue veers into critiques of American history education, child discipline, and generational work ethic, with one speaker humorously suggesting extreme solutions like child labor and corporal punishment. They also explore the inadequacies of modern advertising, particularly the impact of targeted ads and the performative diversity in commercials, reflecting on societal trends, misinformation, and cultural representation.
