New Podcast: "Disenfranchised" by Michael Beck

Gakkomom Podcast ·

2020/05/12

There seems to be a generational gap between boomers and Gen X-Y-Z youth about, well, everything. Instead of sticking our heads in the sand and assuming we're right, listening to what they have to say may help us reinvent ourselves and society as we begin to build the new normal in the wake of the coronavirus. I've interviewed Michael Beck, a recent graduate with a MS in robotics from Carnegie Mellon, about why Gen X-Y-Zers feel disenfranchised, and solutions he sees that I believe boomers will find

New Podcast: Water Filters for Christmas

Gakkomom Podcast ·

2019/12/10

In today's podcast, I talk about how I'm changing my gift-giving habits this year so I can stand behind what I believe and promote a healthy future! To that end, I'm giving water filters this year! There are a lot of reasons for this (which are covered in the podcast), but I feel good that my loved ones will be receiving gifts that will help keep them healthy when I'm not around. I picked water filters because the majority of drinkable water in the United States barely qualifies as "drinkable",

Gakkomom Podcast ·

2019/08/24

350,000 California homeowners have received cancellation or non-renewal notices based on their high-risk zip codes this year. The insurance companies are in flux themselves as they grapple with which zip codes to cover and which ones to cancel. They’re in the business of making money so offering fire insurance where wildfires have consumed the state is not smart business for them. Over the years, when insurance companies failed, homeowners were rescued by the state at the taxpayers’ expense. When
