ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) is a neurodevelopmental disorder, commonly portrayed as an inability to sit still and concentrate. While that isn’t completely off base, the reality of ADHD, especially when undiagnosed, is much more complex. 

Our friend Carissa joins us today to share her experience with ADHD - she opens up about living with undiagnosed ADHD, navigating the confusing steps to getting a diagnosis, and unlearning the internalized shame and stigma in her ongoing journey to self-acceptance.

Chloe Jackman grew up all over San Francisco.

In this podcast, she takes us on a journey through several different neighborhoods she lived in and schools she went to. After high school, she lived in Santa Barbara long enough to graduate and realized how good we have it here in the Bay.

Check back Thursday for Part 2, our final podcast of Season 2.

We recorded this podcast at Chloe's studio in the Inner Richmond in October 2019.

Mo Wise is a true California girl. She was even on an episode of Laguna Beach (she worked in a surf shop that the reality stars frequented). Mo is laid back and often has salty hair from a day spent in the ocean and dirt under her nails from working in her favorite place- the great outdoors. But don't be fooled by her laid-back attitude and friendly personality, Mo is a serious scientist. She got her undergrad from UC Santa Barbara in Aquatic Science, and after testing the job market for two years she knew her passions lay in fieldwork. (Although gardening in Kauai, HI was a pretty close second). So Mo made the decision to go back to school and last year graduated with her Masters in Marine Science.

Chandra Krintz, Ph.D., Professor of Computer Science, University of California Santa Barbara talks about the SmartFarm vision to bring the same kinds of data analytics and prediction systems that are working well in other sectors of the economy to agriculture. Data from sensors and devices can be coupled with historical data to make more informed farming decisions by considering many variables at once.

The boys delve into quite the serious topic this week as the recent UCSB (University of California, Santa Barbara) shooting opened a discussion about violence and oppression of women in America. But first, there is this very important discussion about which presidents are most likely to pee themselves. Don't worry, you read that correctly.
