Occurring In-between the new and full moon is the game changer Uranus entering Gemini to stay for a 7-year cycle. The Scorpio Full Moon compels tensions. Scorpio's passion uncovers broken values.

In this episode of the Glen Gilbert Connection, Glen sits down with Natalie and Keldon Fischer, a young "DINK" (Dual Income, No Kids) "yet" couple, to unpack how they tackled financial responsibilities from the very beginning of their relationship. The couple shares their unconventional journey of bypassing the renting phase entirely to buy a Kirkland condo together before tying the knot. This massive financial step forced them to be completely transparent about their assets and liabilities early on. They also get real about their clashing money mindsets: Keldon brought a fiercely frugal approach from his upbringing, insisting on splitting their first date 50/50 and hesitating to spend money on himself. Meanwhile, Natalie's low-income childhood fueled a drive for financial abundance and constantly increasing her income so she would never be poor again. Despite these distinct differences, the Fischers demonstrate how candid communication can build a rock-solid financial foundation. They discuss their evolution from keeping separate bank accounts with a shared joint pot to fully combining their finances using automated SoFi vaults to manage savings and shared goals. Emphasizing the importance of legal protection and fairness, Natalie and Keldon highly recommend getting a prenuptial agreement—which, in their case, even outlined a 50/50 shared custody arrangement for their dog. Furthermore, they highlight their strategy of maintaining a 12-month emergency fund to safeguard their future against life's unpredictable medical curveballs. Ultimately, their story is proof that honest, sometimes awkward conversations about money are essential for thriving as a team.

The highest of all (Catholic) Holy days happened (Easter) and now Stacy has hymns stuck in her head (you can really rock out to; Here I Am Lord). The conversation did yield new information about Eric; he did the readings at church which gave him the confidence to hone his talent for talk. In addition to hymns and ham, Stacy met “the boyfriend” (her daughter's new bf) and Eric went to the movies. The former went very well, and the latter included unfinished popcorn and heavy breathing which could be solved if seating assignments were more like the college roommate pairing process. After a quick convo about how Neveda makes us sick, it was time Cultural Blindspots. Stacy went high, Dial M for Murder and low, Real Housewives of Rhode Island and Below Deck while Eric went to the movies for his first EVER Ryan Gosling movie. He was a big fan of Project Hail Mary and shared his usual insightful commentary. If you're looking for something else to watch on the small screen, consider St. Denis Medical; it's got Office-like vibes and humor. As for who Stacy and Eric are more like, their mother or father, it's a mixed bag with mixed feelings.

Parents around the world are constantly searching for guidance to navigate the unpredictable journey of raising children. But what happens when life doesn't go as planned? When challenges arise—whether it's a child facing illness, bullying, or academic struggles—how can parents find the strength to remain hopeful? How do they sleep at night, knowing the world can be so uncertain, especially when their children are vulnerable to threats like terrorism or mass shootings in schools? Confronted with these types of difficult issues, it's often challenging to maintain a positive outlook. We can all feel discouraged when the unknown makes us think, “If things aren't good today, they won't get better in the future.” This is why bestselling author, TEDx speaker, and podcaster Allison Carmen's new audiobook, Maybe Everything is Okay: A Parent's Guide to Less Stress and Worry (September 17, 2024; Tantor Audio Original; narrated by Kim Niemi), is both important and timely. It offers parents a powerful and uplifting tool called the “Maybe mindset” to help them navigate the unknown with greater ease and renewed hope. Whether a child is 2 or 22, or even has children of their own, this audiobook provides parents with a resilient mindset that will support them throughout their child's entire life journey. Perhaps most importantly, Maybe Everything is Okay also equips parents with the tools to pass this invaluable perspective onto their children, helping them navigate their own challenges with more confidence and hope. Maybe Everything is Okay is more than just an audiobook—it's a lifelong companion for parents, offering a mindset that transforms fear into possibility and stress into resilience. Embracing the power of Maybe allows parents to approach each moment with their children with calm and openness, paving the way for a future filled with unexpected joys and opportunities. Discover how the concept of Maybe can change everything. For your children, and for you, Maybe the best is yet to come! (Original Air Date - 04-10-25) https://www.allisoncarmen.com/

Episode 117: The Mess of Mediocrity What does your physical space say about your internal world? In this episode of Staying Power, Ashley and JD explore the deeper meaning behind clutter — not as a moral failing, but as a signal. From overflowing desks to disorganized schedules, the environments we tolerate often reflect our mental load, emotional state, and personal standards. Drawing from psychology, behavioral science, and lived experience, they unpack how clutter can represent overwhelm, avoidance, or misaligned priorities — and how intentionally shaping our environments can elevate clarity, energy, and self-respect. Because sometimes the fastest way to change your life… is to change your space.

Stacy shares the tale of getting her Texas license which involves the straight-out-of-central-casting Dept. of Public Safety in the town of Frederickburg. While Stacy's husband was a wreck anticipating the process, Stacy eased in like a drawl and the process went down like sweet tea! What's the difference between a Farmer's Market and a Maker's Market? See if you agree. Speaking of makers, Eric ventured to the new Maker's Lab at the Tacoma Public Library to create a masterpiece of modern engineering; the process is ongoing and involves a free Hoover vacuum. Continuing to tick off items off their Cultural Blindspot Stacy watched Modern Times (Eric's recommendation from last time) and Pulp Fiction. Eric watched something from the century, in fact from the most recent Oscar's race, Begonia with Emma Stone. Once again opinions and thumbs up or down were shared. On the topic of Biggest Lie” it was determined that Stacy is the biggest liar (among other things) while Eric was once a fraud.

Play Ball---The Seattle Mariners & Tacoma Rainiers

Episode 116: Fooling Ourselves On April Fool's Day, we're surrounded by jokes, pranks, and playful deception. But what does it actually mean to be “foolish”? In this episode of Staying Power, Ashley and JD take a deeper look at foolishness — not as a punchline, but as a human tendency rooted in bias, emotion, overconfidence, and misperception. Drawing from psychology, behavioral economics, and philosophy, they explore how we all “fool ourselves” at times — and how recognizing those patterns can actually lead to greater wisdom, humility, and growth. Because being foolish isn't the opposite of being smart. It's part of being human.

Join Talk Cosmos | Sunday, March 29 | 1–2 p.m. PDT about the "US 2nd Government" — What does astrology reveal about this powerful moment for America? Most people know July 4, 1776 as the birth of the United States — but that's only part of the story. The Revolutionary War began in 1775, ended in 1781, and was officially concluded with the Treaty of Paris in 1783. The first US government under the Articles of Confederation struggled to survive. So the founders built something stronger. On September 17, 1787 a new Constitution was drafted. Ratified in 1789 with a Bill of Rights protecting individual freedoms. And on March 4, 1789 — Congress convened in New York, elected officers, approved the Constitution, and reorganized the nation. That is America's 2nd Government — and it has its own astrological chart. With the US federal government and Congress front and center right now, this is a conversation you won't want to miss. Tune in Sunday for a thought-provoking hour connecting history, astrology, and the present moment.

In this episode, Glen Gilbert sits down with Trey Tucker, founder of Rugged Counseling, to unpack the complex intersection of masculinity and emotional health. Tucker, a therapist and coach with a background in corporate leadership and athletics, shares his "no-fluff" approach to helping men navigate the aftermath of divorce and betrayal. The conversation dives deep into why men often instinctively withdraw or isolate during relationship crises, exploring how biological "fight or flight" responses and cultural expectations—like the pressure to "swallow" emotions—can lead to a breakdown in connection. Tucker argues that while being action-oriented is a masculine strength, it must be balanced with the courage to "check the engine" and address internal struggles before they lead to isolation. The discussion also explores how early upbringing and fatherhood shape a man's identity and his definition of success. Tucker explains that many men carry a "haunting" sense of not being enough, often stemming from gaps in their relationship with their own fathers or from living up to someone else's definition of achievement. By addressing common post-divorce blindspots—such as the false belief that a failed marriage makes one "less of a man"—this episode provides practical insights for men looking to rebuild their confidence and find a purpose that is truly their own.

News from the front lines of informed consent. Do people know enough about the pesticides they use everyday and that are sprayed on crops? Do patients know enough about prescription drugs or vaccines? Did any citizen consent to having the skies above sprayed with heavy metals that rain upon their land and children? Bernadette Pajer returns to tell us about legislative efforts seeking to secure informed consent in many aspect of our lives.

Stacy isn't the only one that lives far away, it turns out there's DAMTT listeners all over the country (and world)! But how many of them have experienced Buc-ee's? Stacy and her husband made the pilgrimage and as promised, it's a lot, from “Beaver Chips” to brisket and bathing suits, Buc-ee's delivers. Eric had a less in-your-face time celebrating St. Patrick's Day with tea brack and colcannon. He also has FSA money to spend so let the loophole search on how to spend it best begin. Eric's Cultural Blindspot of the week is on the AFI 100 list, Modern Times with Charlie Chaplin. It was a movie square on the fence between the silent era and “talkies” about finding and keeping a job in the face of modern times. Also starring Paulette Goddard, Eric was surprised to find he enjoyed it so much and saw the seeds of many comedy bits like I Love Lucy's chocolate factory episode.

Today, Loretta welcomes back Wayne R. Cesaro who is a U.S. Navy veteran who rose to the rank of Master Mariner, spending decades navigating the world's oceans while also exploring the deeper mysteries of life. His journey spans an extraordinary range of experiences — from commanding ships at sea to teaching Information Technology and Management Information Systems, building Seattle's maritime education program, and working in high-tech leadership. Yet beneath this grounded and accomplished life runs another current — a lifelong awareness of the unseen.

Through vivid storytelling, he shares experiences of divine protection, intuitive knowing, out-of-body awareness, and encounters with spiritual guidance that have shaped his path.

Stacy is still getting adjusted to life in San Antonio with days mostly punctuated by sun, heat, deliveries, and service calls with folks like the grumpy clock guy. She's also learning about life with hard water which Eric is surprisingly well-versed in. His update is less sunny as he found out he didn't read the fine print about his gum graft surgery; like that there's a part two!! It's enough to make you wonder about the ROI on dental procedures. But in good news, Battersea played another great show even if Eric did spill his drink. Stacy and Eric both checked off Cultural Blindspots; Stacy watched 9 to 5 while Eric watched, To Kill a Mockingbird. Eric also watched Band of Brothers and Pacific which was awesome but brutal. The weekly topic was fantastic failure which made for hilarious and heartfelt conversation that taught us not to be phased by failure (which we all fail to do).

Episode 114: "How To Make Your Own Luck" Just in time for St. Patrick's Day, Ashley and JD explore the science behind “luck.” Is it random? Is it fate? Or is it something we quietly cultivate through mindset, behavior, and openness? Drawing from psychology and behavioral research, they unpack how beliefs about luck influence agency, opportunity recognition, and resilience — and how you can intentionally position yourself for more “lucky” outcomes. Because sometimes luck isn't magic. It's movement.

In this inspiring episode of Made of More, host Chris Erdmann sits down with Alia Joy to discuss her transformative journey from battling a debilitating autoimmune disease to becoming a passionate entrepreneur. Diagnosed at age 15 and bedridden for years due to intense physical pain, Alia found strength through her faith, the power of holistic medicine, and a supportive community. Now, she is channeling that adversity into purpose by launching "Organic Design," a newly founded nonprofit dedicated to helping individuals uncover the root causes of their illnesses while providing them with crucial financial and emotional support. Expanding her entrepreneurial vision even further, Alia is also in the process of producing a documentary about autoimmune diseases and starting an anti-inflammatory cooking show to make healing more accessible.

After 244 episodes of fashion debates, wardrobe dilemmas, trend predictions, and the occasional style confession, the Wisdom From the Wardrobe team takes a step back to look at the journey of the show itself. What began as a simple monthly conversation about clothes grew into a weekly exploration of fashion trends, personal style, wardrobe psychology, and the ever-changing relationship people have with getting dressed. Naturally, this episode begins in classic Wisdom From the Wardrobe fashion, with a slightly unexpected detour. Bec arrives armed with a Thera-Cane and the bold declaration that she may have been “born to be 80,” which quickly leads to a lively discussion about the so-called Potato Shoe Theory. From Birkenstock to UGG slippers to foam-molded footwear that looks suspiciously like it may have been inspired by root vegetables, the team explores the rise of comfort-first fashion and the curious charm of “ugly-cute” shoes in the 2020s. From there the conversation turns toward the show itself and the many directions it has taken over the years. Along the way the team revisits memorable moments, spirited debates around the table, surprising fashion comebacks, and the universal wardrobe mystery of why we all seem to own at least one item we've never worn but absolutely refuse to part with. More than anything, this retrospective celebrates the conversations that made the show what it is: discussions about confidence, identity, creativity, and the small daily ritual of choosing how we present ourselves to the world through clothing. After hundreds of conversations about style, trends, and the psychology of getting dressed, the team reflects on what they've learned and what they hope listeners have taken away from the show. Trends may come and go, but great style, like a good conversation — never really goes out of fashion. If this is your first time listening, here are a few episodes from the archive to get you started: • Our conversations about personal style and confidence • Episodes exploring fashion trends and wardrobe psychology • Listener favorite discussions on closet clean-outs and wardrobe strategy Browse the full archive and discover more conversations about fashion, style, and the everyday ritual of getting dressed.

In this episode of the Glen Gilbert Connection, Dr. Alan Chen joins the show to explore how men can rebuild themselves physically, emotionally, and relationally following a divorce. The discussion sheds light on the downward spiral many men face during relational and emotional turmoil, which often manifests in poor health habits like sleep deprivation, depression symptoms, and overeating. To break these negative patterns, Dr. Chen encourages men to look closely at the root causes of their relationship failures, take accountability for potentially ignoring early red flags in a partner, and recognize how their personal management of stress is actively absorbed by their children. A core theme of the conversation is the distinct way men process relational grief and the critical importance of fostering male-only spaces for authentic healing. Dr. Chen strongly advises against using social media as a public diary for emotional struggles, noting that deep vulnerability should be reserved strictly for a trusted circle of male friends. By acknowledging that men and women possess different strengths, experiences, and ways of understanding, the episode underscores that surrounding oneself with other men who have faced similar heartbreaks allows for genuine empathy, the removal of misplaced shame, and the collaborative problem-solving necessary to build a healthier future.

The band is back together, except not really since Stacy is finally in her new home in San Antonio. While Eric has been prepping for his latest Battersea gig at The Central Salon and adjusting to Daylight Savings, Stacy has been unpacking, learning the two-step at Stable Hall, and trying out local bars. At Otto's Icehouse she ran into Spurs Jesus which was not a religious experience although Stacy and Eric had some thoughts on adding other biblical icons to make a sort of Peanuts-esque gang for SJ to hang with at games. As for Cultural Blindspots, Stacy finally watched Weapons on a recent flight and was semi-surprised by how much she liked it. Meanwhile Eric continues to overachieve by watching not one, but two movies; Key Largo, a Bogart and Becall movie with a film noir vibe and Tucker, The Man, The Car. While sharing it's clear Stacy knows all the “hot goss” about dead Hollywood stars and nothing about cars. Eric shares his surprise that the Tucker movie was directed by famed Godfather director, Francis Ford Coppola since it seems more like what would be considered an “indie” these days. As for the week's top topic, annoying coworker behaviors, Eric has more actual experience in a classic office setting, but Stacy has more thoughts.
