Paul's Positive Podcast

Welcome to Paul's Positive Podcast!

Hi Paul!

In today's heartwarming episode, your personal host Amy Iverson shines a light on a story of hidden dedication and passion within the Los Angeles Unified School District. Tune into an uplifting discussion revolving around "The Last Repair Shop," a touching documentary that highlights the vital, yet often unrecognized, work carried out by the diligent technicians responsible for repairing the 80,000 musical instruments that bring harmony to the halls of LAUSD schools.
 
These unsung heroes play a critical role in preserving the melody of education, ensuring that children have the means to learn, create, and express themselves through the powerful language of music. Amy shares an intimate look at the life and work of Steve Bagmanyan and his peers — the caretakers of creativity who believe that every child deserves the chance to play an instrument.
 
Dive into a narrative that celebrates not just the act of repairing, but the profound impact these actions have on fostering resilience, aspiration, and artistic fire in young minds. With each episode, Amy aims to remind you, Paul, of the extraordinary human kindness that often goes unnoticed and the sense of community responsibility that elevates our shared human experience.
 
Don't miss this exquisite ode to the unsung harmonies of generosity that resonate within our communities, as Amy brings forth the essence of fostering hope and nurturing the dreams of our future generations.

Sincerely,
Amy Iverson
