Can Politicians Block Followers on Social Media? Guest: Lyrissa Lidsky, JD, Dean, University of Missouri School of Law Is it legal for elected officials to block people from their Facebook pages or Twitter feeds? President Donald Trump’s done it enough to attract a lawsuit alleging his blocking of people on Twitter violates freedom of speech. The ACLU makes a similar argument in suing, or threatening to sue, governors and members of Congress who, in a number of states, have blocked people from official social media sites. This question is an active debate among Constitutional lawyers right now. The Happiness Equation Guest: Neil Pasricha, Author, “The Happiness Equation,” and “Two Minute Mornings: A journal to win your everyday,” blogger at 1000AwesomeThings.com, Director, Institute for Global Happiness If you had to name 1000 awesome things in your life, could you do it?

Neil Pasricha thinks his life is and here are some of the things on list:  #990 – Picking up a Q and U at the same time in Scrabble.  #840 – Popping Bubble Wrap. #400 – Putting Your Own Shoes On After Bowling. #168 – When the meeting ends early. During a time in his life that was tough, he started a blog called “1000 Awesome Things,” which turned into a couple of books, a viral Ted talk and an entire foundation devoted to promoting happiness and gratitude.

Guest: Michelle Maidenberg, PhD, President and Clinical Director of Westchester Group Works, Author of “Free Your Child from Overeating” More than one-third of children and teens in the United States are overweight or obese, which means there are millions of parents across the country grappling with how to help their children reach a healthier weight, without making the problem worse.

What if encouraging your child to make better food choices just leads them to indulge further? There’s so much emotion – and so much at stake – for parents in this situation; many are simply paralyzed, unsure what to do. Check out Maidenberg's website here.
