If you were told not to do something, would that make you want to do it even more? People who break the rules don’t just face consequences themselves, they also affect everyone around them. 

In this episode, host Jordan Feldstein talks about why people ignore the rules even when they know the risks and how small acts of defiance can lead to much bigger problems than expected.

 Public schools often serve as a lifeline for families that simply don't have the resources to provide daily meals for their children. This is why school cafeterias are so important. They ensure that students will be served breakfast and lunch every day.

When the pandemic hit, many families who relied on free lunch programs to feed their families were suddenly cut off. Patrick Dillon tells the story of how Roslyn High School's cafeteria team ensured that no family in the community went hungry.  

It's not uncommon to hear people gripe about government spending. The national debt keeps on climbing, and there seems to be no way to fix this. 

Recently, President Trump recruited billionaire Elon Musk to balance America's books. Musk, for a very short period of time, helmed the Department of Government Efficiency, or DOGE. 

While DOGE was pretty active by making some big spending cuts and eliminating thousands of jobs, many argue that their rush to do so caused irreparable damage to critical programs and likely hurt millions of Americans. 

Damien Schmidt, a recent Roslyn High School graduate, asks the question, was DOGE good or bad for the country?  

Greg Keshishian, a senior at Roslyn High School on Long Island, wants to start a t-shirt company, but he has a big problem: money. Well, more specifically, no money to actually start the business he's dreaming of. 

Join Greg as he starts a side hustle to fund his ambitions. 

Ever wonder why negative thoughts seem to come so naturally? Well, it turns out our brains are actually wired that way. Weird, right? 

Join host Sabina Ramos as she tries to figure why negative thinking comes so naturally and why it takes real work and effort to remain positive.

This eerie podcast hosted by Gia Patane is an experiment in soundscape design intended to build an immersive world defined by tension, emotion, and imagination. By mixing natural, atmospheric sounds with voice acting, Gia draws the listener into a world where every creak, whisper, and distant noise means something, creating a more direct connection to settings and scenes.

Gia recorded natural sounds around around her house—things like doors closing, footsteps, foil crinkling, and floorboards creaking— to add authenticity and depth to the story. Gia provides vocals for the Old Lady and the Little Girl while Gia's dad takes on the role of the Father. 

Hosts Gia Patane and Maxwell Gold take a closer look at how Roslyn High School is striking a balance between its academic and athletic programs. Over the years, many of Roslyn's sports teams have been overlooked due to Roslyn's excellent performance in the classroom. 

In the last decade or so, RHS sports have focused on building long-term programs that aim to develop students' athletic abilities and team chemistry. This has led to multiple conference championships and playoff wins. This episode highlights the Roslyn Boys Varsity Lacrosse program and how they competed against the Manhasset Boys' Lacrosse team, one of the top programs in the country, in an exciting and memorable playoff match, marking a new beginning for Roslyn Athletics as a whole.  

Coach Sorenson, who has helmed the program for nearly two decades, concentrates on cultivating a culture of dedication, accountability, and camaraderie with the aim of competing with the best teams in the country. 

"It would've been nice to win," said Coach Sorenson about the playoff game. "But losing by 1 or 2 to one of the best premiere teams is pretty good."
