THE LISTENING BRAIN
For most of us, we must be able to listen in order to speak. Put another way, listening plus speaking equals successful communication. Fortunately, for children with hearing loss, listening has become less of a challenge due to the availability of testing that allows early detection of hearing loss and the early use of advanced hearing technology – like hearing aids and cochlear implants. This podcast, The Listening Brain, will celebrate listening and speaking in the context of childhood hearing loss. Hosted by K. Todd Houston, Ph.D., a noted Listening and Spoken Language Specialist Certified Auditory-Verbal Therapist, speech-language pathologist, and Professor, the podcast will explore educational trends, new developments in technology, and advances in research. We will interview professionals in the fields serving a child with hearing loss, and, most importantly, families who are supporting their children on this journey to listening and spoken language success. And, equally, as important, we’ll also hear from adults with hearing loss who will share their unique stories and experiences about growing up with deafness and how deafness is now being redefined for future generations.

THEMODERNMORON PODCAST
Pushin' 65 & Still Alive. You could be a Modern Moron if: - You are a male. - You think your IQ is measurably higher than it actually is. - You regularly contribute opinions in conversations in which you have no business. - You use any of the phrases “drill down”, “take it to the next level”, “low hanging fruit”, “leverage”, “it is what it is”, “peel the onion”, “boil the ocean”, “reach out” or “price point”. - You're old and irrelevant. You’re not in anyone’s target demo except for AARP related matters. If you know what AARP stands for, you’re old and irrelevant. If you answer yes to more than one question you are probably a moron. I host this show because I answer yes to all of them proudly. Hopefully you have a child or even a grandchild that will show you how to download this podcast. Actually, have them subscribe to it. Don’t ask “what does that mean, subscribe? This isn’t a magazine!” just have them do it. Then have them put your earphones on you and press play. If you’re still able to do it yourself then God bless you. You’re ready to listen to this podcast and take it to the next level.
