Skip the banter: 00:06:35For years, the Knotek home appeared to be a place where struggling friends and relatives could find support, while inside, Shelly Knotek's daughters were witnessing escalating abuse, control, and isolation. As Kathy Loreno, Shane Watson, and later Ron Woodworth disappeared from the family's life, Shelly offered explanations that those closest to her increasingly struggled to believe. The episode also examines the warnings that surfaced along the way, including injuries, troubling behavior, and a 2001 report to law enforcement that did not immediately lead to intervention. Allison walks through the sisters' accounts, the investigation, and the details that show how much was happening in plain sight before authorities finally acted.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When Jessica Slice was 28 years old, a bout of heat exhaustion triggered an underlying neurological disorder that led to permanent physical disabilities. In the 14 years since, Jessica met her now-husband David Yourdon and started a family. They talk to Anita about how their parenting experience has been one of adaptation and creativity — from learning how to separate their worth from external standards to accepting that all bodies have changing needs that require attention and care. They share the nitty gritty of their parenting life, with wisdom that's relevant for all families.Meet the guests:- Jessica Slice, author of “Unfit Parent: A Disabled Mother Challenges an Inaccessible World"-  David Yourdon, Jessica's husband Read the transcript | Review the podcast on your preferred platformFollow Embodied on Instagram Leave a message for EmbodiedPlease note: This episode originally published July 10, 2025.

Alain de Botton est écrivain et philosophe. Il est également le fondateur de The School of Life, il a écrit Le cours de l'amour, un livre que j'ai lu il y a quelques années et qui m'a franchement retourné, parce qu'il commence là où tous les films s'arrêtent : le jour d'après le mariage.C'est le retour de l'été et ca m'a semblé bien de diffuser cet épisode en cette dernière semaine d'aout.Petite précision avant de démarrer : cet épisode a d'abord été diffusé en anglais. J'ai quand même tenu à le proposer en français, parce que ce qu'Alain raconte sur l'amour me paraît trop utile pour rester réservé à celles et ceux qui sont à l'aise avec l'anglais.Il y a un moment dans la conversation où je me suis vu, moi, dans ce qu'il décrivait. Il explique, statistiques à l'appui, que les enfants d'alcooliques tombent massivement amoureux de personnes qui ont un problème d'addiction. Pas par malchance. Parce que nous ne sommes pas attirés par ce qui nous rend heureux, nous sommes attirés par ce qui nous est familier. Et on peut passer une vie entière à rejouer la même scène en croyant chaque fois faire un choix neuf.Dans cet épisode, nous parlons de l'idéal romantique et de ce qu'il nous fait faire, des papillons dans le ventre et de ce qu'ils cachent vraiment, du complexe d'Œdipe relu comme un manuel pratique, des drapeaux rouges à repérer dès le premier dîner, de la sexualité qui s'éteint dans les couples aimants, du polyamour et des dégâts qu'il laisse parfois, de l'infidélité comme tentative maladroite de se rapprocher, des ruptures et de la manière décente de partir, des enfants qui abîment le couple, et de ce qu'on appelle la folie de l'autre.J'ai discuté avec Alain des questions que tout le monde se pose et que personne n'ose formuler à voix haute : est-ce qu'on peut faire changer quelqu'un, comment savoir qu'on a vraiment tout essayé, pourquoi les hommes hétérosexuels ont si peu de mots pour dire ce qu'ils ressentent, et pourquoi les applications de rencontre ont un intérêt économique à ce que vous ne trouviez personne.Ce qui m'a le plus marqué, c'est sa réponse finale. Derrière l'argent, la gloire et l'amour, ce que nous cherchons tous, dit-il, c'est le calme que nous avons connu nourrisson. Et il ajoute une phrase que je n'ai pas réussi à me sortir de la tête : le bruit qui est à l'intérieur de nous a d'abord été un bruit extérieur.Bonne écoute.3. Citations marquantes« Nous ne sommes pas attirés par ce qui nous rend heureux. Nous sommes attirés par ce qui nous est familier. »« Il ne s'agit pas de trouver quelqu'un de sain d'esprit, tout le monde est fou. Il s'agit de trouver quelqu'un capable d'explorer sa folie avec un minimum de maturité. »« Le modèle économique des applis de rencontre repose sur votre échec. C'est une machine à sous : le bonheur, oui, mais pas maintenant, revenez demain. »« Se déshabiller, c'est intéressant. Mais se mettre psychologiquement à nu, ça, c'est la vraie aventure. Et ça ne devient jamais ennuyeux. »« Il n'existe pas d'équilibre entre vie pro et vie perso. Tout ce qui vaut la peine d'être fait va déséquilibrer votre vie. »4. Idées centrales discutées 1. Nous aimons dans un décor que nous n'avons pas choisi (≈ 02:35) Alain ouvre sur cette maxime de La Rochefoucauld : certaines personnes ne seraient jamais tombées amoureuses si elles n'avaient jamais entendu dire que ça existait. Nos émotions reçoivent des encouragements discrets de la société qui nous entoure, et l'idéal romantique en fait partie. Pourquoi ça compte : si nos attentes viennent du décor, elles peuvent être révisées. C'est une bonne nouvelle déguisée en fatalité.2. L'attirance suit le familier, pas le bonheur (≈ 12:52) Le mouvement romantique promettait qu'en suivant son cœur, on choisirait mieux. La psychologie moderne dit l'inverse. Nous rejouons les schémas de frustration de l'enfance parce qu'ils ressemblent à la maison. Pourquoi ça compte : c'est l'explication la plus solide au sentiment de « je retombe toujours sur le même profil » que tant de gens décrivent.3. Les perversions sexuelles sont des terreurs de l'intimité (≈ 25:39) De l'exhibitionniste au voyeur, Alain lit ces comportements comme des refus de la réciprocité : il faut imposer, ou observer de loin, parce que se regarder dans les yeux est insupportable. Pourquoi ça compte : le même mécanisme, en version douce, explique l'amant qui disparaît le lendemain matin. Le désir de connexion et la terreur d'être englouti cohabitent chez tout le monde.4. Les applications de rencontre ont besoin de votre échec (≈ 32:06) Leur modèle repose sur une promesse jamais tenue, exactement comme une machine à sous. Alain reste pourtant optimiste sur la technologie : il imagine une IA témoin du couple, qui signalerait ce que nous ne savons pas entendre. Pourquoi ça compte : ça déplace le débat, le problème n'est pas la technologie, c'est le modèle économique qu'on lui a collé dessus.5. On ne cherche pas quelqu'un de sain, on cherche quelqu'un de lucide (≈ 19:59) La bonne définition d'une attente réaliste, selon lui : quelqu'un capable d'annoncer sa folie avant de la vivre, et de s'en excuser après. Pourquoi ça compte : ça remplace la quête épuisante de la personne parfaite par un critère observable dès les premiers mois.6. Le dialogue a une limite, et il faut l'accepter (≈ 49:05) C'est le moment le plus vulnérable de la conversation. Alain vit de l'idée que les mots transforment les gens, et il admet que ce n'est pas toujours vrai : le traumatisme ferme des portes qu'aucun argument n'ouvre. Pourquoi ça compte : certaines des ruptures les plus douloureuses viennent de là, quitter quelqu'un qu'on aime et qui ne peut pas comprendre.7. La folie de l'autre peut devenir le lieu de l'intimité (≈ 21:28 en germe, développé à 1:20:59) Ce n'est pas la nature du problème qui décide, c'est la manière dont il est porté. Dire « j'ai un problème avec le sexe, aide-moi » peut être plus intime que le sexe lui-même. Pourquoi ça compte : ça retourne complètement la logique des drapeaux rouges. Le défaut avoué relie, le défaut caché détruit.5. Questions posées dans l'interviewComment l'idéal romantique de l'âme sœur a-t-il façonné ce que nous attendons de l'amour, et quels sont les pièges de ces attentes ?Comment prend-on du recul par rapport à un idéal romantique dans lequel nous baignons depuis toujours ?Que valent les papillons dans le ventre, et que sommes-nous censés ressentir quand nous tombons amoureux ?Faut-il suivre son intuition en amour, ou s'en méfier ?Que pensez-vous de l'idée que l'amour dure trois ans ?Quelles sont les attentes réalistes qu'on peut avoir d'une relation ?Existe-t-il des drapeaux rouges fiables, et quelles questions faut-il poser dès les premiers dîners ?Nous vivons dans une société sans friction, Uber, Airbnb, tout doit être fluide. Cherche-t-on aussi un partenaire sans friction ?Est-ce que les hommes hétérosexuels sont plus démunis que les femmes face à leurs propres émotions ?Comment accueillir la folie de son partenaire sans se perdre soi-même ?Peut-on faire changer quelqu'un, et à quelle vitesse ?Comment garder le désir sexuel vivant dans un couple qui s'aime depuis longtemps ?Pourquoi tant d'hommes réclament-ils aujourd'hui des relations ouvertes ?Pourquoi deux personnes qui se sont profondément aimées deviennent-elles des étrangères ?Peut-on pardonner une infidélité, et comment ?Comment savoir qu'on a vraiment tout essayé et qu'il faut partir ?Comment la société devrait-elle évoluer pour améliorer la qualité de nos relations ?Peut-on faire trop de thérapie ?6. Références citées dans l'épisodeAuteurs et philosophesLa Rochefoucauld (≈ 02:48) : « Il y a des gens qui n'auraient jamais été amoureux s'ils n'avaient jamais entendu parler de l'amour. » La citation matrice de tout l'épisode, reprise plus tard à propos du polyamour (≈ 56:47).Sénèque (≈ 17:34) : « Pourquoi pleurer sur des parties de la vie ? Elle appelle tout entière les larmes. » Cité comme exemple de pessimisme réconfortant.Nietzsche (≈ 19:44) : pour vivre, nous avons besoin de certaines illusions.Freud (≈ 33:26) : le complexe d'Œdipe, relu comme modèle des compétences nécessaires à l'âge adulte. Alain note au passage que Freud écrivait mal et qu'il a besoin d'être commenté.Spinoza (≈ 33:50 et ≈ 42:55) : cité comme exemple de penseur qui ne dit pas le meilleur de sa pensée, puis L'Éthique comme exemple de complexité que nous aimons pour de mauvaises raisons.Racine, Shakespeare, Tolstoï (≈ 49:05) : convoqués pour dire que même la plus belle éloquence ne fait pas bouger quelqu'un qui est fermé émotionnellement.Flaubert, Madame Bovary (≈ 59:09) : Emma lit les mauvais livres, ceux qui lui disent que sa vie est ennuyeuse.Livres et créations d'Alain de BottonLe cours de l'amour (The Course of Love) (≈ 00:33) : cité par moi en intro comme le livre qui m'a marqué.The School of Life (≈ 00:33 et ≈ 1:27:43) : l'institution qu'il a fondée, sa chaîne YouTube, et le terrain de ses explorations à venir.Livre français discuté sans être nomméL'amour dure trois ans (≈ 17:34) : je lui soumets la thèse, il répond qu'il ne connaît pas le livre, se félicite qu'il ne soit pas traduit en anglais et refuse d'y croire un vendredi matin à 11h20. [Auteur non nommé dans l'épisode : Frédéric Beigbeder]Cinéma et cultureÉric Rohmer (≈ 59:09) : le cinéaste qui nous apprend la patience des conversations ordinaires.Gladiator (≈ 59:09) : l'exemple inverse, le récit à l'échelle héroïque qui rend la vie quotidienne décevante.Personnes citéesEsther Perel (≈ 18:20) : mentionnée comme la voix à convoquer sur la durée du désir.Invitée d'un précédent épisode de Vlan! (≈ 1:27:26) : je mentionne une conversation qui m'a fait comprendre que le bruit est surtout intérieur. [Nom mal transcrit dans le fichier, à vérifier avant publication]Lieux et imagesLe Bois de Boulogne (≈ 25:39) : l'exemple de l'exhibitionniste.Sainte-Lucie, Saint-Barthélemy (≈ 1:09:21) : les îles de son histoire de plage, la démonstration la plus drôle de notre amnésie sentimentale.Timestamps clés00:00 — Pourquoi cet épisode est en anglais J'explique en français le contexte de l'épisode et pourquoi je tenais à le proposer malgré la barrière de la langue.00:33 — Alain de Botton, School of Life et Le cours de l'amour Mon introduction : pourquoi ce livre m'a marqué, et pourquoi les 20 ou 30 questions les plus difficiles sur l'amour sont réunies ici.02:35 — « Certains ne seraient jamais tombés amoureux s'ils n'en avaient jamais entendu parler » La maxime de La Rochefoucauld comme point de départ : nos émotions ne poussent pas dans le vide, elles sont encouragées par la société. L'idéal romantique nous dit que l'autre doit tout deviner sans qu'on ait à parler.04:59 — La question simple qui fait tomber l'idéal Comment saurai-je que je suis aimé ? À quoi le reconnaîtrai-je ? Vingt personnes dans une pièce donneront vingt réponses différentes selon leur âge, leur pays et leur musique. Nous sommes des créatures hautement suggestibles, et c'est ce qui nous rend libres de changer.06:27 — Les papillons dans le ventre, deux heures suffisent-elles ? Je raconte cette femme rencontrée récemment qui, après deux heures, savait déjà qu'elle ne ressentait rien.07:07 — La solitude originelle et la quête de la maison De l'intérieur d'un corps à l'extérieur du monde, du doudou serré dans les bras à l'adolescence qui cherche un autre corps. Les papillons, c'est la reconnaissance d'une maison perdue, dans une couleur de cheveux, une odeur, un angle de cou, un certain humour.10:58 — Mariages arrangés, romantisme, et le retournement Le passage de la logique dynastique au règne du sentiment, entre 1750 et 1870. Une révolution qui a produit des résultats bien plus paradoxaux qu'on ne le croit.12:52 — La statistique qui fait mal Les enfants d'alcooliques tombent massivement amoureux de personnes qui ont un problème d'addiction. Nous ne sommes pas attirés par le bonheur, nous sommes attirés par le familier.15:43 — Faut-il suivre son intuition ? Non sans la soumettre à examen. Et surtout : tenez un journal de ce que vous vivez, parce que la mémoire réécrit tout. Faites confiance à ce que vous avez ressenti sur le moment, pas à ce que vous imaginez maintenant.17:34 — « L'amour dure trois ans » ? Sa réaction est une des plus drôles de l'épisode. Puis l'argument sérieux : nos goûts ne changent pas si vite, et on ne change pas d'amis tous les trois ans.19:59 — Personne n'est sain d'esprit La seule attente réaliste : quelqu'un capable d'annoncer sa folie juste avant de la vivre, et de s'en excuser après. Il vaut mille fois mieux quelqu'un qui dit « j'ai peur de l'intimité » que quelqu'un qui ne répond plus au téléphone.21:37 — Drapeaux rouges : les vraies questions du premier dîner Un premier dîner est un entretien psychologique. Demandez l'histoire de la personne, sa relation avec ses parents, et observez surtout sa capacité à répondre. « Je ne sais pas, je n'y ai jamais pensé » est en soi une réponse.24:28 — La moitié d'entre nous a peur de s'approcher Environ 50 % des gens portent l'idée inconsciente que se rapprocher de quelqu'un finit mal. Presque tout le monde veut aimer, et presque tout le monde a un obstacle.25:39 — Les perversions sexuelles comme terreurs de l'intimité L'exhibitionniste, le voyeur, et jusqu'au cas le plus tragique. Toutes des manières de refuser la réciprocité. Et le même mécanisme, en version douce, chez l'amant qui promet de rappeler et ne rappelle jamais.28:50 — La vie sans friction et le partenaire sans friction Je lui parle du livre que je veux écrire sur la société du sans-couture, et de cette manie de collectionner les gens en les jetant dès la première imperfection.29:53 — Et si l'IA aidait vraiment les couples ? Son scénario optimiste : une intelligence artificielle témoin du couple, qui signale ce qu'on n'a pas entendu. « Il a mentionné son père trois fois et vous n'avez rien dit. »32:06 — Les applis de rencontre sont des machines à sous Leur modèle repose sur l'échec répété et la promesse du prochain coup. Un appel direct aux entrepreneurs qui écoutent.33:26 — Le complexe d'Œdipe, enfin expliqué utilement Ce que Freud voulait vraiment dire, et pourquoi il l'a mal dit. L'enfant a besoin d'être reconnu comme désirable sans jamais être séduit, et sans jamais être ignoré. Les deux dangers symétriques.38:18 — Pourquoi les conversations entre hommes hétérosexuels sont si ennuyeuses Ça commence dans la cour de récréation, quand pleurer devient une accusation. Ça finit par un adulte qui ne peut dire presque rien de ce qu'il est.40:36 — Quand une remarque sur des chaussures est entendue comme une condamnation à mort Pourquoi certaines personnes vivent toute critique comme une annihilation, et ce que ça révèle de ce qui leur est déjà arrivé.42:55 — Un plaidoyer pour la simplicité Nous adorons la complexité, Spinoza, l'astrophysique, et nous la respectons parfois là où elle n'a rien à faire. Trois heures de discussion quatre fois par semaine sur le sens d'un mot n'est pas une preuve de profondeur.44:26 — Ce qu'est l'amour mature Savoir s'excuser, séparer le passé du présent, distinguer la personne en face de soi de son père ou de sa mère. Et l'analogie du coureur olympique : tout le monde ne peut pas être dans votre équipe.46:36 — On ne change pas sur ordre Les gens changent, mais quand ils le décident, jamais sous la pression. Plus vous insistez, moins c'est possible.47:58 — L'âge émotionnel n'a rien à voir avec l'âge civil Nous tombons amoureux de personnes qui ont notre âge émotionnel. D'où les écarts de vingt ans qui fonctionnent, et les couples du même âge qui se décrochent.49:05 — L'aveu le plus vulnérable de l'épisode Il vit de l'idée que les mots transforment les gens. Et il reconnaît que le traumatisme ferme des portes qu'aucune éloquence n'ouvre. Certaines ruptures naissent exactement là.51:42 — Le désir qui s'éteint dans un couple aimant Le conflit entre le besoin de paraître respectable et la vérité de nos désirs. Plus on a besoin de quelqu'un, moins on ose lui montrer qui on est vraiment.54:17 — Polyamour : « du sang sur le tapis » Son expérience personnelle des amis qui appellent à trois heures du matin. Sans condamner celles et ceux pour qui ça fonctionne.55:51 — L'hôtel, et le partenaire redevenu inconnu La proposition concrète : sortir de la routine, et se rappeler que la personne qu'on croit connaître par cœur reste largement une inconnue.56:23 — Pourquoi tant d'hommes veulent une relation ouverte Une lecture historique et économique du mariage bourgeois, et ce qui se libère quand la contrainte financière disparaît.58:33 — Les histoires d'amour finissent toutes trop tôt Les films s'arrêtent au moment où les deux se trouvent. On ne les voit jamais préparer le dîner vingt ans plus tard.59:09 — Madame Bovary lisait les mauvais livres Rohmer contre Gladiator. Ce que nous regardons décide de ce que nous jugeons digne d'intérêt dans notre propre vie.1:01:06 — La passion, mais psychologique Deux personnes pressées de se retrouver le soir pour reparler de leur enfance. Se mettre psychologiquement à nu, voilà l'aventure qui ne s'épuise jamais.1:02:49 — Le chagrin d'amour est une forme de mort Il refuse de minimiser. Certains en meurent. Et c'est pire quand on ne comprend pas pourquoi l'autre est parti.1:04:09 — Les règles de la décence quand on quitte quelqu'un On prend une amende pour 25 km/h de trop, et on peut disparaître de la vie de quelqu'un après vingt ans sans que personne ne dise rien. Son message le plus direct : si vous savez, partez maintenant.1:07:17 — Peut-on rester amis ? Plus vous avez aimé, plus l'amitié sera pâle. Le meilleur terrain pour une amitié après coup, c'est ironiquement quand on ne s'est pas beaucoup aimés.1:09:21 — Le fichier « problèmes avec X » et l'histoire de la plage Sa méthode contre l'amnésie sentimentale, illustrée par son incapacité chronique à se souvenir qu'il déteste la plage.1:12:11 — L'enfant est une perte, et il faut le savoir La structure tragique de la parentalité, les associations inconscientes qui s'installent quand quelqu'un devient père ou mère, et pourquoi le sexe devient plus compliqué.1:13:47 — « L'équilibre vie pro vie perso n'existe pas » Tout ce qui vaut la peine d'être fait déséquilibre la vie. Il vaut mieux se préparer que se plaindre.1:14:44 — Un plaidoyer pour le compromis Rester pour les enfants n'est pas automatiquement une lâcheté. Refuser tout compromis, c'est un système totalitaire appliqué à sa propre vie.1:16:14 — Comment savoir qu'il est temps de partir Quand vous avez vraiment tout essayé. Les six mois de plus qui semblent perdus vous économisent des années de regrets.1:19:42 — L'infidélité comme tentative de se rapprocher Certaines trahisons disent l'inverse de ce qu'on croit : je ne veux pas sortir, je veux entrer.1:20:59 — La folie de l'autre comme chemin vers l'intimité « J'ai un problème avec le sexe, aide-moi » peut créer plus d'intimité que le sexe. Ce n'est pas la nature du problème qui compte, c'est la manière dont il est porté.1:23:07 — La question qu'on ne lui pose jamais Personne ne l'interroge sur Œdipe ni sur l'exhibitionnisme. Il vient de dire ce qu'il attendait depuis longtemps de pouvoir dire.1:24:10 — L'âge psychologique de l'amour Après les mariages arrangés et l'ère romantique, une troisième époque s'ouvre. Il n'y a qu'une seule voie, l'intelligence émotionnelle.1:25:00 — Peut-on faire trop de thérapie ? Non, mais on peut la faire mal. Et beaucoup de thérapeutes sont mauvais, imposant leur vision du monde à leurs patients.1:26:38 — La porte qu'il ferme : l'anxiété Ce que nous cherchons derrière l'argent, la gloire et l'amour, c'est le calme du nourrisson qui vient de manger.1:27:26 — « Le bruit intérieur a d'abord été un bruit extérieur » La phrase de fin, en une ligne.1:27:43 — Ce qui l'attend La School of Life, et cette immense toile sombre de la vie émotionnelle dont il découvre un morceau à la fois.

There are 2 younger women sitting around a table at a trap house in Dallas, Texas. They're both Latina with a bit of baby fat in their cheeks - but they're not just some college students looking to buy drugs.   They're here to sell them – a lot of them.   One of the 2 women – she's a narco with deep connections in Mexico. The other woman? Just a Spanish/English translator for her boss, the narco, and the dealer of the trap house, a man named Love.   They need someone to move product for them and since Love has connections in the US - this deal could mean a lump sum of drugs and cash PLUS a lifetime supply from the cartel.   He just needs to earn their trust. How? Kill someone.   But not just anyone. They already have the target picked out.   A 35 year old pediatric dentist named Kendra Hatcher. Why would the cartels want to kill a random dentist for children in Dallas, Texas?         Full show notes available at RottenMangoPodcast.com Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In the second half of my conversation with Kevin "KevOnStage" and Melissa Fredericks, we talk about all the ways they take care of themselves and one another. We cover therapy and how a combination of individual and couples therapy has helped them thrive in this season of their marriage. Before the pair were beloved by millions, they were a young couple searching for good marriage advice. They took what they learned and shared it with other couples during local gatherings at a BBQ joint, hoping they would all stay together. Their approach to learning and teaching out loud has only grown as they share this information on their own podcasts, a New York Times best-selling book, and here on Naked Beauty.During our conversation, we discuss how the pair manages to be open with their audiences while also setting firm boundaries. Kev and Melissa also open up about how they push one another to be their best selves, and explain why they'll never be the other's “yes man.” While talking about grieving his brother, Kev revealed that it was Melissa who pushed him to work through his grief onstage and using comedy. Melissa was sure that he could challenge his art and build something beautiful, and given the positive reception to his shows, she was absolutely right.

Skip the banter: 00:07:51When 19-year-old Cal Poly freshman Kristin Smart disappeared after an off-campus party in May 1996, investigators quickly learned she had last been seen walking back toward campus with fellow student Paul Flores. Early delays, inconsistent statements, a mysterious black eye, and later cadaver dog alerts inside Flores' dorm room raised serious questions, but years passed without Kristin being found. Decades later, renewed investigative work and previously unheard witnesses brought attention back to details that had been overlooked or left unresolved in the original investigation. This listener suggestion from Kelsi, Destanie, and Maya examines how those early decisions shaped a case that refused to disappear. Allison walks us through Kristin's story and the evidence investigators kept returning to as the search for answers continued.Over 150 bonus episodes waiting for YOU: https://www.patreon.com/crimeandcoffeecouple Our Amazon Shop (stuff we like that we share on the show): https://amzn.to/48mohHX All our links (YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Merch, etc):https://linktr.ee/crimeandcoffee Facebook Group to discuss episodes:www.facebook.com/groups/crimeandcoffeecouplepodcast/ References available at https://www.crimeandcoffeecouple.com a few days after this podcast airs.

Does going through hard times together make a relationship stronger—or is that just the story we've been told? In this episode, Yue explores whether deep connection is built through shared struggle or if love can grow just as profoundly without adversity. She reflects on how survival, sacrifice, and teamwork can forge incredible closeness, but can also create resentment, distance, and even break people apart. Through examples like illness, career setbacks, and major life transitions, she unpacks when supporting a partner through hardship strengthens a relationship, and when it's okay to recognize that love alone isn't enough. If you've ever wondered whether lasting intimacy requires surviving difficult seasons together, this episode will challenge the way you think about what truly builds a deep and enduring partnership.

This Episodes Questions Brians Questions: Hey Gents,  As always love the podcast. I just upgrade from a bosch jobsite table saw to a general international 50-220 hybrud thats about 20 years old. It is in great shape and I want to keep it that way. What are some general maintenance things you would initially do with an older saw such as this and what would you do going forward to keep it in tip top shape?  Thanks again! Tyler You guys often talk about pocket hole screws being an easy way to fasten boards together. I find I often have the boards move on me and misalign the joints when I use pocket hole screws. Do you experience this / how do you prevent it? Especially when one of the boards is too long to feasibly clamp it well. Tyler Guys Questions: Hey guys… Indianapolis native woodworker/DIYer here.  Second time to ask a question and unfortunately is one you have probably answered before, but hopefully there is a slight twist to this one. I'm looking to refinish a dinning table that is currently made of oak with a light yellower stain with a clear coat that is knicked up and scratched. The wife would like for the table to be black. I'm interested in using Target Coatings EM6600 - Raven black pigmented laquer. I've never used the pigmented laquer and hopefully it's easy enough for a DIY guy to do a decent job. Couple questions about this: 1. Do I need to sand the old finish off or use a chemical to soften the finish and then sand it off, or can a pigmented laquer go on over and the finish since it is covering over the old colors completely? Or instead of sanding can you use Target coatings HSF5000 primer, surfaced, and grain filler over the top of the old finish? 2. If I do need to sand it at least to scuff it up for the primer to adhere how far back do I need to sand it back? Is it just enough to rough it up, or do I need to be all the way back to bare wood? 3. Lastly has anyone ever used the grain filler primer from Target Coatings? Am I wasting my money on this product? Wood grain showing through the black finish isn't the end of the world, but if we could have a completely smooth finish and little to know grain causing a “feeling” on the table that would be preferable. And maybe we would get that from the laquer building up already. Thanks for the awesome podcast. I've learned a ton from you all! Thanks Jason Im 62 years old been  woodworking for years and would love to use sketch up to help design and build projects. I know that there are versions dedicated to woodworking. My question is do you guys use sketch up? What version do you use?  I know there are subscription fees. Im concerned about the learning curve. Ive watched some YouTube videos  Im a small hobbyist shop doing small projects, built ins and i do a lot of design just in my head. Would love to be able to design and refine projects on the computer before i start building.  Appreciate any advice on beginning this. Thank you, Phil Huys Questions: G'day guys , from Australia. long time listener and I finally have a question. An auction for a closing business appeared on my Instagram feed and it was nearby so I bid and won around 3000 square metres of veneer (roughly 32,000 square feet or 3/4 of an acre.)for the princely sum of $56 AUD or $39 USD. The veneers were shopsawn in house and are 1.8mm - 2.4mm  with some of the walnut 5000mm long and 600mm wide the species also include. - Walnut burl. - Yellow poplar burl. -Maple - Pacific maple. - European Walnut - European oak - Silky Oak - QLD Pepperwood - Palisander Rosewood - Tasmanian blackwood - Fiddleback Tasmanian Blackwood - Blackbutt It's a lifetime supply for me and I have already started to flatten and sort some of the stock , which brings me to my first question. The poplar burl is extremely dry, crinkled, and bubbly. I sprayed it with a homemade veneer flattening solution( alcohol, glycerine and water) and pressed it in cauls and clamps. The veneer definitely flattened out and became pliable and flexible, however. As it has flattened over in the press, it has folded over itself in places, picture ironing over a crinkle in a Shirt i guess. I can send a photo if you want. This is all over the veneer , unlike a shirt I can't just stretch it out and go over it, so my question to you three is, how do I "stretch out" my veneer to get it flat, or is this veneer gone? The rest of the veneer is great, thankfully it's just the poplar burl. Dylan I enjoy your show and have a question to submit.  I am building a cherry slab river table with a black epoxy center.  My question is regarding the final finish coat.  I have done two similar projects on one I used epoxy and didn't care for the plastic look of the finish.  On the second I used Rubio but came out dull and wasn't very durable which is important because my family doesn't always treat wood finishes with the care I would like.  What finish would you recommend that has a sheen in the satin to semi gloss range with good durability?I have a lvlp spray gun if that helps with options.

Tired of ADHD strategies that don't work? Start with my this training: Stop Trying to “Fix” Your ADHD. You're Not Broken: https://programs.tracyotsuka.com/sign-up_____Have you ever tried to fix your spouse? Push a little harder, remind a little more, explain it one more time, and eventually they will just get it?Jackie Kelley did that for years. Then she realized the thing she kept trying to change was often just a brain that worked differently from hers.Jackie is a neurodivergent content creator, illustrator, children's book author, wife, mother, and founder of JK Illustrates. Diagnosed with ADHD at 30, after motherhood knocked down what she calls the “perfect house of cards” she had built around herself, she began sharing what she was learning about ADHD, marriage, and family life. Her viral “Marriage Rules” videos took off in 2024, and her book, So You Married a Human, comes out October 6.She and her husband married two weeks after she graduated, having never spent more than 72 consecutive hours together. Two very different neurodivergent brains, each convinced the other person's way was the problem, eventually built a set of rules to communicate better in the middle of conflict.In this episode, Jackie and Tracy get into “Voted Off the Island,” “No Wrong Answer,” “Do It Yourself,” and “Love This Idea for Five Minutes.” They also talk about sensory overload, defensiveness, the “little man” screaming in everyone's head, why the goal of a fight cannot be winning, and why laughter matters so much in an ADHD marriage.If you have ever quietly resented your partner for not doing something the way your brain needs it done, this one is for you.Resources: Website: https://www.stayathomejackie.com Website: https://www.jkillustrates.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/Stayathomejackie Tiktok: https://www.tiktok.com/@stayathomejackie Send a Message: Your Name | Email | Message Explore more from me:

We talk a lot about long-term couples growing together emotionally—but what happens when their physical selves begin to change, too? As we age, our bodies change, and those changes can have a real impact on intimacy, confidence, sexual function, and relationships. In this episode, we take an honest and often lighthearted look at what happens to both women and men as they grow older—and why these changes are something couples should face together, rather than allowing them to create insecurity, doubt, or blame. We're joined by Dr. Castillo, a fellowship-trained Female Pelvic Medicine specialist and the founder and director of Swan Medical Intimate Wellness in Los Gatos, California. Dr. Castillo brings extensive expertise in the changes that can occur as a consequence of childbirth, aging, and menopause, as well as the emerging treatments designed to improve sexual health and overall quality of life. We start with women, exploring some of the most common changes in sexual function that occur with age, including the impact of menopause and shifting hormones. We also talk about the enormous beauty standards women face—and whether men might need to start “playing the game” a little more when it comes to maintaining their physical health and appearance. Then we turn the conversation toward men. What changes can they expect as they age? What treatments and options are available? And, yes, we even ask the question you may have been wondering about: Are penile fillers for increased girth actually a thing? Most importantly, this conversation is about removing the shame and stigma surrounding sexual health. Aging doesn't have to mean giving up intimacy, confidence, or connection.

Get ready, Love Island USA fans — this is the episode you'll want to hear before the reunion!

Money works differently when a husband and wife understand the strategy together. In this episode, Jim and Roni Oliver have a personal conversation about money, marriage, ownership, and the financial lessons they've learned along the way. They talk about moving beyond the traditional retirement mindset, continuing to build assets throughout life, and creating wealth that can keep working for their children and future generations. Roni also shares how quickly her perspective on money has changed since meeting Jim and why being teachable matters. The conversation gets into trust, keeping your word, having difficult conversations, and why both spouses need to understand and participate in the family's financial decisions. Key Takeaways - Build assets with the intention of continuing to grow, rather than planning around eventually drawing everything down. - Both spouses should understand and participate in the family's financial strategy. - Being teachable can completely change the trajectory of your financial life. - Trust, commitment, and communication matter just as much in money as they do in marriage. - Knowledge alone isn't enough; understanding what to do with it is where coaching and action matter.

Adam Crowley and Dorin Dickerson react to an appearance Mike Tomlin made on a TV show the other night promoting his upcoming appearances on these national NFL TV broadcasts over the next season.

Over the course of 17 years, Wilfried and Angelika Wagener deliberately tortured several women in cruel and unusual ways, leading to the destruction of their livelihoods and the deaths of two. They were finally caught when they were driving the final victim home, and their car broke down, leading the taxi driver to call an ambulance to save her. The subsequent trial revealed years of abuse that exceeded the court's expectations. It exposed institutional failures that let Wilfried go unmonitored after being put in jail for tormenting his first wife. This lack of surveillance led to Wilfried and Angelika continuing to torture other women in the most sadistic ways imaginable.RO - https://www.ro.co/LIGHTSOUTRocketMoney - https://www.rocketmoney.com/LIGHTSOUTFollow & Subscribe To The Show!Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3SfSNbkVrfz3ceXmNr0lZ4Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/lights-out/id1505843600Social Links:TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lightsoutcastTwitter: http://twitter.com/lightsoutcastInstagram: http://instagram.com/lightsoutcastSuggestions/Comments: lop@milehigher.comMerch: http://milehighermerch.com/Request A Topic Form: https://zfrmz.com/Sp6vsxGQrNoHUfDzvGnNPodcast sponsor inquiries: adops@audioboom.comHost: JoshTwitter: http://twitter.com/milehigherjoshInstagram: http://instagram.com/milehigherjoshCo-Host: IanInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ifarme/Editor/Producer: DanielInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/horrororeoSources: https://pastebin.com/8kucCwzH

Skip the banter: 00:06:48When 12-year-old Sian Kingi vanished during a short bike ride home, investigators were left with a yellow bicycle, reports of a suspicious station wagon and several witnesses who had noticed more than they initially realized. As police followed those details, they uncovered earlier encounters that placed the same couple at the center of increasingly serious concerns. Allison tells Sian's story with a close look at the witness accounts and investigative decisions that began connecting those pieces.Over 150 bonus episodes waiting for YOU: https://www.patreon.com/crimeandcoffeecouple Our Amazon Shop (stuff we like that we share on the show): https://amzn.to/48mohHX All our links (YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, Merch, etc):https://linktr.ee/crimeandcoffee Facebook Group to discuss episodes:www.facebook.com/groups/crimeandcoffeecouplepodcast/ References available at https://www.crimeandcoffeecouple.com a few days after this podcast airs.

Betsy is back from Belize and back to giving us the advice we can all learn from. In this episode, she wants us to remember that our value is our presence, not our usefulness. Are you doing the work for you and for everyone else? Leaning back doesn’t have to mean becoming less, it allows others to show up more. Give it a try in your life and you might get pleasantly surprised. Transcript:  Welcome to The Art of Living Big, where we explore how to live intentionally and with more joy. I’m Betsy Pake, your host, master, coach, and creator of the Navigate Method. Here to help you listen in to your true desires, elevate your standards, and live life to the fullest. Now, let’s go live big. Hello. Hi, everybody. Welcome to the show. I have been missing for a couple weeks. We went to Belize for our retreat, and it was … Oh, my God, it was so great. I, I wish you could have been there. It was this group of people that came together. Some of them had worked with me, but most of them hadn’t. But everybody got along. I- it was insane how awesome it was. It was girlhood, you know? We played in the pool. We did some work on ourselves. We d- you know, had drinks by the moonlight. I mean, it was just such a great, great trip. It, it was so fascinating to me how everybody just bonded, you know? And I think that’s just, … I, I always say, , I attract the best women. Beautiful women, too. But I attract the best women. And so everybody just meshed. A, a, lot of people extended their trip. They had an extra day, and then some people changed their plane flight so that they could stay, and it was just amazing. And I’m so happy that we did that trip, and I’m gonna plan another one. I got a couple things that I’m working on that I’m gonna finalize today. Hopefully today is the day. But I would really like to do something in January, so be on the lookout for that, because you won’t wanna miss it. Just the coming together, and it was like we’d all known each other for 20 years, you know, and it was like our annual girls’ trip. I know that for me, I expanded so much, and I felt so great, and so it definitely made me realize that, , live events, it’s so important, I think, for us to get together live and to have that experience together. So anyway, what I wanted to talk to you today about, though, is I kinda have a, a short little thought, an idea, experiment that I have been running. You know, it’s interesting, because, , in the last episode, I talked about how I had started dating, and I don’t, I’m not gonna be coming in here talking about dating every time. I, have to tell you that I resisted it for a long time, and what I’m recognizing is how much I have learned about myself in the last couple months of doing this, and how much I have grown, really, and how much I was able to notice old patterns and actually shift so that I know I have healed, because I noticed it and was able to move out of it. And so there’s a little lesson in here that I have learned that I think might be helpful for you, and so that’s what I wanted to kinda share today. If you’ve been here for a while, you know that I- tend to say that relationships are a mirror, right? Every single one. Our friendships, our, coworkers, with our kids, you know, with the lady who does your hair, like the person that you’re standing next to in line. All of this is a mirror about how we actually feel about ourselves, and we can learn a lot about ourselves from any one of those experiences. You know, I, I think some mirrors show us things that other mirrors couldn’t show us. And so I think that’s why this experiment has been so important for me on my journey. And you know, I, I have been coaching for years. I mean, 2012. A long time. And I have done the work. I know myself very well. And I noticed when I started dating that there was this pattern that was sort of, I don’t know. I- if you had asked me, “Do you have that pattern?” I would say, “No, I can do, I can do it. It’s n- I’m fine. I’m fine.” But what I recognized was that that pattern was so much in the middle of who I was that I actually couldn’t see it until I had the mirror to show me. , And so I’m gonna talk a little bit about that, because I think that every relationship that I had was old enough that the pattern was, like, already kind of baked in. And so, you know, like when you walk into your living room, like you don’t notice the furniture ’cause it’s just been there. But dating put me in like a brand new living room. You know what I mean? With people who knew nothing about me, , no history, no established roles. Like nobody had an expectation of me that was already in, in place. And I think that created this like blank space. And I watched myself do something within, you know, the first 24 hours of finding somebody, that I liked. Now- I’m, I wanna say, I’m gonna say I liked loosely… I, I, I liked everybody is my point. I liked everybody. I, met some really, really nice people. But here’s what happened, is that I over-functioned. I think that’s the easiest way to say it. I met somebody, and I immediately started doing the work of the relationship. , I would carry the conversation, I would ask really good questions. I kept saying, “Everybody’s so nice, I could talk to them for hours. And then I was like, wait, maybe that’s me. Maybe that’s me. , Not that they’re not nice, not that they can’t hold a conversation, it just made me realize maybe there’s something I’m doing here that is over-capacitating to, , an extent. You know? I, I found, , if something got awkward or if I noticed something made somebody uncomfortable, , I would immediately kind of smooth it over. I, I would handle everything. I would suggest a plan when there wasn’t a plan. , I would explain myself so thoroughly, I would over-explain what I meant or what I was trying to say so there wouldn’t be any confusion. And what I noticed was that I was doing my half, right, my half of the relationship, and I did that really fast and I did it really well because I’m good at it, but then I also did his half. And I think that there was this part where I felt like I had a connection with somebody, but looking back now, I realize that it was just me, , over-capacitating the whole thing. Like, when I look back at this, , I’m gonna use the word relationship, but we’re gonna air quote that. , I went out with somebody, , I don’t know, five or six times, and I realized I was doing my half and his half. And that I built that whole thing. I have no idea what that guy would have built with me because I never left him any room to build anything with me. I would reach out. I would suggest things. And so here’s what I wanna do, is I think I wanna sort of name this thing because I think a lot of you are gonna recognize yourself in this. You know, I, I am very good at walking into somebody’s complicated situation, understanding it, finding a solution for things, and making it better. , That is real. That is my gift. I can… It’s almost like a cosmic thing. When somebody explains to me what’s going on with them, I feel like I’m hovering above it, and I can see the, all the levers. And so if somebody hands me a mess with a lot of moving parts and a lot of feeling attached to it, I can sort it out. I can see what actually is going on. I, have built a business on this, right? But somewhere, a long time ago, I think I must have decided that that was my value. Not like one of my qualities, but that was my value. , That was the reason someone would want me around, like the, the price of my cocktail or whatever And I think once you believe that, you carry it into every living room you walk into, right? Every situation that you find yourself in. And so I would walk in kind of scanning for how I could be of value. And you find the thing that you can be useful for, and then you get to work because you know being useful is how you have always understood that you belonged in that room. And I have been doing that for, like, my whole life and calling it, like, being a good person, I think. I have really evaluated, what does it mean to be a good person? And, you know I, I think I am a good person. I think I am generous. I’m not gonna, you know, pretend that I’m not or not want to be. But I recognized in this interaction with this person that some of this was a bid. Some of it was me t- trying to buy my way in to closeness with someone. And, and the problem with buying your way in… And you may be looking at your marriage or relationship with people at work or whatever and go, “Oh my God, I do this. , I over-capacitate in order to feel like I’m enough to be in this situation.” And, , so I think that the problem with that is simply that , if you get close to people by being useful, you can never stop being useful. You have to continue to earn that spot, and you have to stay necessary, and that is not being close with someone in a relationship. That’s a job, and I don’t want to have a job with the people that love me. And so I recognized… And like I said, I went out on a bunch of different dates with a bunch of different people, and then I went out with one person, , I don’t know, four or five times. Couple weeks. It was just a couple weeks. And I noticed that I was doing this. And so as I was learning about other people and going out with other people, I started doing something a little bit different. And I wanna describe this ’cause I wanna be really careful about how I say it And because the shift was important, but there- it’s also nuanced, right? So I did not show up as being less, okay? So I’m not saying, , you need to dummy yourself down, or if you have a superpower, just keep that hidden. I’m not saying withhold your superpowers from people you love, . And I’m not saying that I wanted to pretend to be less, less interested in people than I was. I- and I’m, and I wasn’t trying to make anybody chase me., I’m 55 years old. I, I didn’t have the energy for some big strategy. But I wanted to lean back, and I wanted to do my part and stop. So I am still funny. I’m still warm. , I will still point out the thing that nobody else will say. I can still be generous when I feel like being generous. But I don’t need to m- make myself less capable, but I need to stop automatically spending all of my capacity. Does that make sense? So I don’t need to make myself less capable. I need to stop automatically spending all of my capacity. The capacity stays. I just stopped spending it before anyone asked. I just stopped spending it as a deposit to be wanted. So this is what it kinda looked like in practice. In practice, it looks like leaving when it’s time to leave. If I don’t make the plan, does he make the plan? If I don’t carry the conversation, like every message back and forth, I didn’t have to ask a question. I didn’t have to… I could just say… I could just answer what they asked me and give them enough information that they could keep the conversation going. I- I didn’t wanna explain myself. I just said, “This is what it is,” and then I let them see if they leaned forward. Do they get curious? Do they ask me about themselves? If I don’t smooth over an awkward moment, what do they do? Can he sit in an uncomfortable thing for a few seconds like a grown man? If I don’t tell him, this was the big one. One man asked me, “Well, what is it you’re looking for?” And I, I said, “Clarify what you mean.” And he said, “Well,, what kinds of things do you like?” And I said, “I am l- liking learning about who you are and how you show up. I’m not gonna tell you exactly how I wanna be treated. I wanna see how you would treat me, and then we’ll know if it’s a match And, , I’m not gonna tell some man that I need you to open the door for me, but I’m gonna choose the one that does it. I’m not gonna tell you that, “Hey, yeah, great, let’s go out. I need you to plan everything.” I’m just gonna choose the man that plans everything. I’m not gonna say, “You need to tell, that I look pretty. Don’t you think I look pretty?” I know this is so silly. Tell me I’m pretty and feed me. But I, I… This person I went out with, like, five times or whatever could- never said anything, like, complimentary to me, and I realized I needed that. And so I’m not gonna tell you that I need that. In the beginning, I’m trying to figure out if you’re the right match, but I’m gonna just notice, and I’m gonna pick the one that does tell me. So I think that leaning back let me learn more about people and who I wanted to invest my energy into, and made me realize that spending time with me… Now, this one’s crazy. If you are an over-capacitator like me, what I’m about to say is gonna make you so uncomfortable, but that me just being- spending time with you, was the payment. D- do you know what I mean? , That was enough. , I am joyful, and fun, and curious, and I don’t have to fix your problem. I don’t have to pay for the drink or plan the date. I can show up, and that is my value, is me, is my presence. You get to spend time with me. This shift is so insane. Even as I’m saying it, I’m like, that feels weird. What’s your value? , It can’t possibly just be that you just be you. But yeah, it can, ’cause the right person will be delighted in that. I have a man that I’m going out with, , the third time, and I’m, I’m not over-capacitating. I’m letting him show up, and he is. There’s another guy I’m going out with for a second time. I’m not over-capacitating. He’s showing up. He’s consistent. They’re messaging me every day. One of them said, “I don’t want you to worry your pretty little head about it. I’ll take care of it.” I said, “Yes, sir. I will just lean back.” And I think that this is a really hard thing for women who are accomplished. I think it’s a really hard thing for women who have been taught that their value is serving others and taking care of everything. So I think this is the thing that I, want you to hear, ’cause I really didn’t expect this, is that when I left empty space, men filled it. Not all of them. Some of them left it empty right back, and that was really useful information, and then I moved on without any drama about it. Unmatch. Some of them stepped in, made the plan, made the reservation, followed up when they said they would, noticed something that I mentioned once, some little small thing, and remembered it, took care of things, wanted to take care of things. And, you know, at first this felt really uncomfortable. , What do I do? , Should I offer something? Should I make this easier for him? Should I pay the bill? Should I say something, I don’t know, magical? I don’t know. Should I try to fix something? But nothing. That was the answer. Nothing. You do nothing. , You say thank you, and you enjoy it. And there are men out there this whole time who wanted to take care of things, and I just never gave anybody the chance, because I was already doing it long before they ever even got there. I wasn’t attracting the wrong people, but I was crowding out the right people. And I don’t think that our world teaches women necessarily how to receive. , We get taught, how to give until it, it is painful, and then we call that, , a vow or you know, loving. We get taught to be the capable one. We get a ton of praise for it. People tell you, “You’re so strong. You’re amazing. I don’t know how you do it.” And that’s good for, , you know, I don’t know, 10 years. Then, then all of a sudden you recognize that receiving is its own skill, and that most of us are really terrible at it. I mean, watch yourself next time someone gives you something, even, , a compliment. “Oh, gosh, no. Oh, this old thing?” Right? “Oh my God, I have so many wrinkles. No, God, that don’t even… I need a haircut. My nails, oh, thanks, but God, they… I gotta get them done.” Right? A compliment, a favor, dinner, help with something that you didn’t ask for help with. , Do you deflect? Do you immediately balance the books? Do you say, “Oh, you didn’t have to do that,” or do you start planning how you’re gonna pay it back before they even finished doing what they were doing? I don’t think it’s being humble. I think that’s discomfort. I think receiving makes us feel like we owe, and owing feels dangerous. And so we wanna,, clear up that imbalance immediately, and then get back to a safe ground where we’re the giver, and I think that gives us a sense of control. So what if you just sat in it? , Just for a second, just let it be uncomfortable and don’t fix it. I found this was so difficult until it wasn’t., At first I was like, “Oh, you don’t have to open the car door.” The guy, , you know, shut the car off, ran around the car door. , You don’t have to do that. But, but you can. But you can, and I found that nice and charming. And then soon I found I was able to really lean back and let people show up, and they’re showing up in a totally different way than I have ever experienced before. It wasn’t because there weren’t men around me who wanted to show up. It’s because I was crowding it out. So I wanna bring this all the way home, ’cause I know a lot of you aren’t dating on the dating apps, and I know that. But maybe you’re in a marriage and you can’t figure it out, or you’re in a friendship that just feels really lopsided, or you’re in a job and n- you’re carrying the team or a family where you have always been the adult, you know, since you were 10 years old. So here’s what I wanna say to you. If you’ve been over-functioning in something for 20 years, you don’t currently know what it is. You know what it is with you holding both ends of it. You don’t know what it is. You’ve been managing the calendar, and the moods, and the extended family, and the temperature of the room, and you have been doing that really well. , You soften things so that he doesn’t get mad, and you anticipate things before it even happens. You’re brilliant. You’re so brilliant, people don’t even know half the stuff that you take care of, ’cause you do it before there’s a, a missing piece, before there’s loss. You do your half and their half, and you call that a relationship. So when you sit down to ask yourself the big question of, “Can this relationship work? Do I want this? Is this enough?” You are asking about a truth that you likely built, and you cannot get a true answer from that place. So I’m not telling you to stop doing everything, and just see if ever- anybody notices, right? That’s … would likely be more uncomfortable for you, ’cause you’d have a messy kitchen and a, a cluttered household, right? I’m telling you something much smaller and a little bit harder, and that is to pick one thing, one thing that you always do that actually isn’t yours. You know, that something that only gets done because you do it, and then not getting it done would be uncomfortable, and then just don’t do it. Don’t announce it. Don’t make a big production. Don’t make it a lesson. Don’t turn it into a conversation about how you’re the one who does every goddamn thing, ’cause we know you do. ‘Cause I promise the conversation’s already happened. You’ve already done that, and it didn’t work. So just leave it empty, and then watch, not, not to catch anybody, but just to see them, to actually get clear eyes, to see what’s happening. ‘Cause you’re over-capacitating if you’re anything like me. You’re over-capacitating, and you think that’s real. But the truth is, if you just stay in your lane, you can see what they’re willing to do, and those are different, and your body knows which one you do regularly, so it’s gonna feel a little uncomfortable. And maybe they pick up the slack. That happens more than you might think, and it’s great when it does. We had someone the other day in group, two people, one person in particular, that was like, “I can’t believe how different my marriage is when I created space. I can see how much he shows up for me.” Maybe he doesn’t. Maybe it just sits there. But either way, you’re gonna learn something true, and I think that we are all pretty starving for something true. And, the last thing I’ll say, and, this is the part that I’m still practicing, is that it’s okay for you to just bring the joy. You don’t have to arrive with a solution. You don’t have to be the most useful person in your family. You don’t have to earn your seat by fixing anything or anybody. You can show up funny. You can show up interested. You can show up delighted by the thing you saw, , during your day. You can order something good on the menu and just be a pleasure to be around and let that be the whole thing. I know this is hard ’cause you’re like, “Well, I’m not going out on dates. I’m at home, and he does not see me as funny or interested or delighted by me.” But what if you felt that way about you? What would be different? ‘Cause that is enough. It’s always been enough. I don’t think there’s a ledger that we think there is. I, I think 20 years ago if somebody had said, “Don’t you worry your pretty little head about it, I got it.” Somebody said that to me yesterday. “Just show up.” And I would’ve been like, “I can handle it. I can do it. I’m a feminist.” But now I’m like, okay, I’m not gonna worry my pretty little head about anything. I’m just gonna get a cute outfit on and , go up and be joyful and happy and have fun, and enjoy the conversation, and spend time with somebody. I know that that’s not necessarily real life, it’s only a second date. But I think when we stop spending all our capacity on everybody else, we get it back for ourselves. So everything is teaching us something, including all the things that you swore you were done with. I, I was done with dating. I said it out loud on the show. And it turned out to be the one mirror that could show me a thing that I had been carrying my whole adult life. You, you might already know where you do this. You might n- even know as soon as I started the podcast, , might have been like, “This is what I do.” You know, there’s a specific moment in your week where you do something where you over-capacitate, and you don’t have to do anything about that right now, but just catch yourself when you start reaching and see if you can let yourself come back down and receive. Maybe it’s when a friend says, “Oh my God, you’re such a great friend.” And you go, “Aw, you’re a great friend.” You’re not valuable because you’re useful. You’re valuable because you’re you, and anybody worth having close to you already knows that. And I think that is how you live a big life. All right. All right, everyone. I love you so much.

Operation Midnight Hammer through the eyes of the people who flew it. "Cuffs" was the deployed Director of Operations for the 55th Fighter Squadron, the Wild Weasels who flew Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses ahead of the B-2 strike on Iran.

He ran the squadron's operations from the main base while the strike launched from somewhere else. In this conversation, he talks about how young the pilots flying this mission actually were, what it took to run a squadron split across two locations, the last handshakes before they stepped, and the wait until he heard they were on their way back. Before Iran, the 55th Fighter Squadron fought over Yemen in Operation Rough Rider, a sustained air campaign against Houthi surface-to-air threats. What they learned there is the reason the F-16 Block 50 and the AGM-88 HARM were part of the strike package on June 21st, 2025. These interviews were recorded between December 2025 and January 2026 and preserve firsthand accounts from pilots, maintainers, intelligence officers, and logistics airmen who were there. 0:00 Spinning Up the Squadron for Deployment 1:43 A Threat Environment Unlike the Last 20 Years 4:09 Why the F-16 Still Matters in This Fight 6:28 Getting Out the Door 9:09 Most of These Pilots Were in Their Twenties 12:11 Learning a New Base and New Configurations 16:28 First Combat Sorties Over Yemen 20:24 Thinking About the Risk to Yourself 22:44 Learning About Operation Midnight Hammer 26:27 Trusting the Weapons Officers to Plan It 28:58 Running a Squadron Split Across Two Locations 32:48 The Night It Happened 36:50 The Last Handshakes Before They Stepped 39:38 Watching Them Come Home Have a story?

Episode 293 - A Couple of Morally Flexible Dogs with Chris Ryan

What happens when we stop accepting the stories we've been taught about sex, gender, bodies, desire, and pleasure—and start questioning who those stories actually serve? In this episode, we're joined by Ericka Hart, M.Ed. (she/they), a trauma-informed, consent- and pleasure-based sex educator who has spent the past 15 years teaching comprehensive sex education at the elementary, high school, undergraduate, and graduate levels. Ericka is the founder of Sex Ed as Resistance, author of Nasty Work: Resist Systems, Explore Desire and Liberate Yourself, and co-host, alongside her partner Ebony, of the critically acclaimed podcast Hoodrat to Headwrap. Ericka's work challenges us to think differently about sexuality—not simply as something we learn about, but as something deeply connected to power, culture, history, identity, and liberation. Together, we explore how traditional sex education has failed to give many of us the tools to understand our bodies and desires, and how societal and colonial ideas about sex and gender continue to shape who is allowed to experience pleasure. We unpack the history of consent and what it means to define consent beyond a simple “yes” or “no,” particularly when it comes to access, agency, and pleasure. We also talk about reclaiming desire on our own terms, body positivity and the people left out of mainstream beauty and sex-appeal standards, and practical ways we can begin to challenge the messages we've internalized about our bodies. This is a conversation about unlearning, resisting, exploring, and imagining something better—a world where sexuality education isn't about shame or fear, but about agency, pleasure, consent, and liberation. In this episode, we explore:• Why “education meets agitation” is at the heart of Ericka's work• Rethinking traditional sex education through Nasty Work• The impact of societal and colonial views on sex, gender, and pleasure• Consent, its history, and its relationship to access and agency• How to reclaim desire on your own terms• Body positivity, beauty standards, and who gets left out• Tools for reconnecting with your body and pleasure• What a radically different future for sexuality could look like• Ericka's work, Sex Ed as Resistance, and Nasty Work Learn more about Ericka and her work at ihartericka.com.

During their visit to Nuku Hiva in French Polynesia, German adventurers Stefan Ramin and Heike Dorsch were attacked by a local, Arihano Haiti. Arihano shot and killed Stefan, then sexually assaulted Heike, prompting a 50-day manhunt that ended with his surrender. Heike returned home to Germany, devastated and penniless. Media coverage, filled with sensational claims of cannibalism, and a complicated trial made this one of the island's most high-profile cases in its history.ZBIOTICS - https://zbiotics.com/lightsoutMint Mobile - https://www.mintmobile.com/LIGHTSOUTQuince - https://www.quince.com/LIGHTSOUTHungryroot - https://www.hungryroot.com/LIGHTSOUTFollow & Subscribe To The Show!Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3SfSNbkVrfz3ceXmNr0lZ4Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/lights-out/id1505843600Social Links:TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@lightsoutcastTwitter: http://twitter.com/lightsoutcastInstagram: http://instagram.com/lightsoutcastSuggestions/Comments: lop@milehigher.comMerch: http://milehighermerch.com/Request A Topic Form: https://zfrmz.com/Sp6vsxGQrNoHUfDzvGnNPodcast sponsor inquiries: adops@audioboom.comHost: JoshTwitter: http://twitter.com/milehigherjoshInstagram: http://instagram.com/milehigherjoshCo-Host: IanInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/ifarme/Editor/Producer: DanielInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/horrororeoSources: https://pastebin.com/VcGi4C5V

Jase learns that his advice may have been the final straw for a young couple, but he stands by his guidance. Zach's confiscation of a lost and found pair of sunglasses sparks a funny lesson about why parenting doesn't end when children grow up, move away, or get married. The guys turn to James 3 to examine how selfish ambition, hidden motives, and the need to win can quietly destroy marriages and other relationships. The guys also consider the “irony of Jesus,” a carpenter who showed little interest in buildings because he came to build his church and bring God's family back together.
