  • Tulsa Warriors Hockey Team- Building Community for Veterans and People Living with Different Abilities & The Hidden Workforce Team on the Movie “Ezra!” Ep. 137
    Jul 20 2024

    Welcome Listeners! Join Lisa Toth as we venture through The Hidden Workforce, a show about the positive impact people who live with different abilities bring to the workforce and our world.


    This week, we have a special double feature showcasing unique parts to the hidden workforce!


    First, our co-host Maggie kicks us off as she sits with the leaders of the Tulsa Warriors Hockey Club on-site at WeStreet Ice Center! The Tulsa Warriors Hockey Stand Up and Sled teams are filled with military veterans, first responders, and civilians to create a dynamic team and community. They just launched their Sled team this year, and Maggie got a first-hand piece of the action during their Mid-Summer Bash! They talk about the team, how being on the team has transformed their lives, the family and community they have with each other, how people can get involved, and more! You don’t want to miss this powerful segment!


    Next, Lisa and Maggie chat with Alex about the movie “Ezra.” We talk about representation of Autism in acting, how Alex felt watching it as a man living on the autism spectrum, a brief plot overview, and his thoughts on the movie! We hope you enjoy this fun segment and watch the movie “Ezra” when you get the chance!
