The MindShift podcast series is a go-to source for educators, parents and anyone interested in transforming education. Now there’s a new season, and MindShift Season 8 brings listeners an exciting new lineup of topics with episodes that delve into education strategies and student experiences. Co-hosts Nimah Gobir and Kara Newhouse explore belonging, learning from mistakes and transforming outdated teaching techniques. Hear from researchers, teachers, parents and students about what it takes to support generative and engaging learning processes.
In the first episode, "Uncovering Healthy Relationships with Consent Education,” listeners discover that consent education goes beyond sexual activity. It empowers students to express their boundaries and emotions effectively in all types of contexts, whether it's sharing fries or starting a romantic relationship. Teaching consent in schools equips students with the tools to navigate various situations respectfully and confidently.
The second episode, "How Extrovert Teachers Can Engage Introverted Students," introduces listeners to a language arts teacher who learns to broaden his definition of classroom participation. He implements strategies that encourage engagement from all students, even the quieter or more introverted ones. This episode provides practical takeaways for educators who want to create an inclusive learning environment where every student feels valued.
"The Right Way to Say 'I'm Sorry" looks at the importance of effective apologies in cultivating healthy school communities. Listeners gain insights from authors who analyze apologies in the news and witness how a fifth-grade classroom incorporates apologies as part of their morning meetings, teaching students the value of acknowledgment, empathy and making amends.
These episodes, along with "Inclusive Dress Codes: A Challenge and an Opportunity"; "How Green Playgrounds Can Turn Schools into 3D Textbooks”; and "Dear Math: You Are Terrible and Wonderful" offer valuable insights and practical approaches to improve education and support student well-being.
Dive into these new thought-provoking episodes (and listen to other MindShift podcasts) at kqed.org/mindshift or wherever you get your podcasts.
Intergenerational connections are very important as we try to tackle the small and big challenges in our communities, and young people have a lot to contribute.

Explore the amazing range of voices using the interactive map. And if you’re a secondary school teacher, check out the new media project types for the 2023–24 school year. Visit youthmedia.kqed.org.

Political coverage often treats its subject as a sport, one where the “big game” comes in a high-stakes November election. KQED’s Political Breakdown takes a deeper approach. The show covers the numbers, of course, but with a focus on context and in-depth interviews about how — and why — politicians do what they do. KQED’s Marisa Lagos, Scott Shafer and Guy Marzorati host everyone from former California
Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye to Orange County Rep. Michelle Steel to former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown. You can count on leaving the show with a deeper understanding of the person behind the policies, the issues, what’s at stake and more.
You can hear Political Breakdown on KQED Public Radio 88.5 FM on Thursday at 6:30pm with a repeat on Saturday at 4am, or on the KQED App. Devin Holt, On-Air Digital Programming Assistant

I have been enamored with Grace Kelly since I was a little girl, beginning with childhood summers spent at my grandparents’ house watching classic movies. I watched Grace’s films many times over, and knowing her real-life story of becoming a princess only added to her mystique and glamour. I thought I knew a lot about her, but this documentary blew me away. I am so excited that it will come to KQED 9 this fall and to Passport members this August. Through an exclusive agreement with the Principality of Monaco, Her Name Was Grace Kelly chronicles Grace’s life as told through the Grimaldi family private archives. Starting with home movies shot by Grace’s father in 1932, the documentary also showcases 8mm, 16mm and Super 8 film shot by Grace Kelly and Prince Rainier. Passport members can stream the film starting August 1, before it comes to broadcast later this fall. —Meredith Speight, Director, TV Programming

“At a time when America has become increasingly divided, it’s important to think about the things that connect us,” notes historian David Rubenstein, host of Iconic America: Our Symbols and Stories. In the Bay Area, the Golden Gate Bridge is the centerpiece of our city, a structure that connects us to each other and to visitors worldwide.
But how much do we know about it? Why was it necessary to build it when ferries were already scurrying people into the city? Who pushed for and paid for it? What engineering marvels did it take to make it? And, looking forward, can America continue to build ambitious and bold infrastructure projects in the 21st century? Rubenstein looks for answers in the final episode of Iconic America: Our Symbols and Stories,
The Golden Gate Bridge, which will be broadcast on August 1 on KQED 9 at 9pm. You can also stream it the same day on KQED Passport.
On a personal note, after decades in the Bay Area I’m returning to New York, leaving the magazine in the highly capable hands of On KQED’s new editor Elyce Berrigan, who you’ll meet in the next issue, and Sophie Kim, our editorial and production assistant.
When I first crossed the bridge I saw a unique city on one side and the wild Pacific, busy with boats, on the other. I was hooked by the innovation and beauty. As the song goes, “I Left My Heart in San Francisco,” part of it, anyway, with KQED and its members. It’s been an honor to steer this ship.
—Ellyn Hament, Managing Editor• The Golden Gate Bridge ironworkers, dubbed “sky cowboys,” handle 10,000 to 15,000 square feet of repairs monthly from as high as 746 feet up in all kinds of weather.
• Beneath the Golden Gate Bridge and in nearby waters, marine archeologists have discovered an estimated 300 shipwrecks, the earliest dating back to 1595.
