I've been interviewed a few times for a series on unschooling Amy Childs is doing, and the one about the benefits of unschooling only has me and Amy. (Most have three to six voices.) http://unschoolingsupport.com/family-bonding/
(Others can be accessed in the lefthand list there.)
Amy Childs is creating a series of +/- 15 minute podcasts about unschooling. The first one was about Learn Nothing Day. She asked me for people she could interview about that, and asked them about other things, too, so some of those voices will come up in future podcasts.
Amy Childs has done a beautiful podcast about Learn Nothing Day. Besides my voice and Amy's, you can hear Alex Polkowsky, Hema Bharadwaj, Julie Daniel, and Amy's daughter Kayla.
"Try not to learn. Don't try to learn. Those two aren't the same thing but they're close enough for beginners." (from the last paragraph of this 1998 interview: An Interview with Sandra Dodd
"Why we unschooled" (written a few years ago, about a story from 1990 or so)
This is on my blog, but I suppose some of those posts should be included as resources. I won't announce all of them, but you can subscribe there if you're interested in more personal things about me or my family. http://sandradodd.blogspot.com/2014/06/why-we-unschooled.html
Nice feedback, lefthand column. I don't save all of it (some I print and put in a special box without quoting elsewhere), but these seemed special. http://sandradodd.com/feedback/

Three videos; two I'm in (English and Spanish) and one my book is in (Spanish). New to that page.
(Two have been announced here, the third had not.) http://sandradodd.com/spanish/
More links added to the page of interviews—the videos above, and the interviews of Rippy and Julie (announced here recently): http://sandradodd.com/interviews
