I sat down with Carrier Wagner, Founder & Executive Director of Girls Athletic Leadership School (GALS) for Episode 6. GALS is a free, all girls public charter school in Panorama City, CA.
GALS is collocated on a beautiful LAUSD campus. The students at GALS get access to the Olympic sized swimming pool as well as the other athletic facilities. Each morning the students and staff start their day with movement doing yoga.
Carrie and I discussed the social emotional component of their program and how it is very important to not only teach the kids about math and science, but to educate the girls on how to deal with their emotions as well. These are all very important qualities our future leaders must possess.
Thank you to Carrier Wagner for taking the time to sit down with me tell us more about the fantastic personalized learning program at Girls Athletic Leadership School. You can find out more about GALS by visiting their website at www.galsla.org.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
