We often judge how "good" we are at relationships based on our dating and relationship history, but what if it's the least complete picture? In this episode, Julie explores why romantic relationships often become intertwined with our identity, causing breakups, rejection, or being single to feel like proof that we're "bad at relationships." She helps you look deeper at your connection portfolio and the other evidence of your capacity for healthy relationships. If dating has made you question your worth, this episode will help you separate your romantic outcomes from your ability to create deep, lasting connection.

Music can build suspense, reveal emotion, and reshape a scene—but who ensures that it works in harmony with the picture? Mike talks with Emmy-winning music editor Ben Schor about the often-invisible craft of guiding a production's score from the earliest temp tracks through recording and the final mix. Schor traces his path from singer-songwriter to film and television, beginning with Gigli and developing long-running collaborations with composers including Jeff Russo. He explains how Alien: Earth balances the musical legacy of Jerry Goldsmith and James Horner with eerie new sounds created using contrabass flute, Aztec death whistle, and the specially built bass desmophone. The conversation also explores Schor's work on Ripley, Fargo, and Cape Fear, the perils of falling in love with a temp track, and why giving music room to breathe can transform a story.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-projection-booth--5513239/support.Become a supporter of The Projection Booth at http://www.patreon.com/projectionbooth
W10 Lisa Feener & Kelly Irwin – Pack Life Kelly Irwin and Lisa Feener join the podcast to share their experiences in the world of hound hunting, from raising generations of bear dogs to navigating a traditionally male-dominated sport. This conversation explores memorable hunts, dog breeding, wildlife behavior, mentorship, and the deep bond between houndsmen and their dogs. More than anything, this episode is about the dogs, the people who love them, and the traditions that keep the sport alive.

Sex is everywhere.It shapes culture, relationships, health, identity, and how we connect, yet somehow it remains one of the hardest things for us to talk about honestly.This week on ALLSMITH, Bryce sits down with Wendy Strgar, founder of Good Clean Love, author, entrepreneur, and longtime advocate for better conversations around sexual health, intimacy, and lasting love.We explore why sex still carries so much discomfort and shame, what happens to desire in long-term relationships, how our bodies and relationships change with age, the influence of porn and modern culture, women's sexual health, and why great intimacy might have far less to do with performance than we think.This isn't just a conversation about sex.It's a conversation about communication, curiosity, vulnerability, health, and learning how to love another human being well.IN THIS EPISODEWhy we're still uncomfortable talking about sexSexual shame and where it comes fromWhy desire changes in long-term relationshipsLove vs. attractionMismatched libidoSex, marriage, and parenthoodPorn and modern expectationsPerformance vs. genuine intimacyWomen's sexual health and the vaginal microbiomeHormones, aging, and changing bodiesCommunication and emotional safetyWhat it takes to sustain loveWhat it actually means to be a great loverBIG IDEASSex is everywhere.

If you're not in the right headspace, come back to this one when you're ready.If you need support, call Lifeline on 13 11 14 (available 24/7) or visit lifeline.org.auThis week I sat down with Shaun Tomson, and this one genuinely stopped me in my tracks.Shaun grew up in Durban, South Africa, in a family deeply connected to the ocean. From a young age he was one of the most exciting surfers in the world, and in 1977 he became the IPS World Surfing Champion — one of the most celebrated titles in the history of the sport. He competed on the professional tour for 16 years, winning 19 major pro events, and was named one of the ten greatest surfers of the century by Surfer Magazine. He also revolutionised surfboard design and tube riding, leaving a mark on the sport that is still felt today.But Shaun's story doesn't stop at world titles. After retiring from competition he built successful surf apparel brands, became a passionate environmental advocate through his work with the Surfrider Foundation, and produced the award-winning documentary Bustin' Down the Door — the story of how his generation put professional surfing on the map.And then, in 2006, his teenage son Mathew died during a schoolboy prank gone wrong. By his own words, Shaun was totally lost in grief. What followed was one of the most remarkable acts of transformation I have ever heard — channelling unimaginable loss into a powerful message about resilience, purpose and living with intention. His books, including the bestselling Surfer's Code and The Code, and his keynote speaking work have since inspired everyone from Fortune 500 executives to students across the world.This conversation covers all of it. Shaun is warm, deeply human and one of the most inspiring people I have ever spoken to.

What REALLY happens when you walk into a prison for your very first visit?This week, Paige and Gigi are answering a Waller's very specific questions about the first prison visit experience, from the moment you walk through those doors to the rules, what to wear, what you can bring, what to expect, and all those little things nobody thinks to ask until they're already nervous. We're also talking about something SO many of us can relate to: the nerves. How do you prepare yourself emotionally for that first visit? How do you handle the unknown? And what happens when you're trying to navigate a relationship that your family and friends may not understand?One of our Wallers sent us these questions after falling in love with someone she met through a prison pen pal program, and with her first visit approaching, she wanted honest answers from women who have actually been there.So Paige and Gigi are getting real about the excitement, the anxiety, the awkward moments, the rules, the emotions, and everything in between. Because sometimes you don't need another opinion. You just need someone to say, "Girl, I've been there. Here's what you need to know."This episode is sponsored by BetterHelp. Being a prison wife — and honestly, just being human — can be heavy, and having someone to talk to can make all the difference.

On this episode of Unlocked, Savannah sits down with Blake Proehl, the former NFL wide receiver turned musician who never expected a devastating knee injury to change the direction of his life. Blake opens up about growing up in the shadow of his dad, NFL legend Ricky Proehl, the pressure of trying to make it in football, going undrafted, and the brutal injury that left him facing 16 months of rehab with no guarantee he would ever play again.During one of the darkest seasons of his life, Blake picked up a guitar for the first time. What started as a way to pass the time quickly became something much bigger after a video of him singing with his grandmother went viral and brought hundreds of thousands of new followers almost overnight. Blake shares what it was like trying to balance football and music, going from the Vikings locker room to performing onstage, auditioning for American Idol, and ultimately realizing that music was becoming more than just a backup plan.Now signed with MCA and living in Nashville, Blake is building a career as an artist and songwriter while navigating a completely different kind of grind. He and Savannah talk about finding your identity outside of what people expect from you, trusting God when your plans fall apart, the pressure that comes with sudden success, and why the connections he makes with fans matter more to him than any trophy or accolade.Blake Proehl's debut EP 'Hearts Don't Break' is out October 2nd!

After a devastating injury during his rookie season, though, his life in football came to a screeching halt. During the recovery period and unexpected downtime, he encountered another surprise: falling in love with music.His musical journey began with his family, and a video of him sharing his singing voice with his grandmother for the first time unexpectedly went viral on TikTok, surprising even Proehl himself. The tens of millions of views say it all — people are ready to hear more from Blake. His pop and r&b sound has the natural likability of predecessors like Justin Bieber, and Proehl's humility and gentle spirit make it hard not to want to root for him.As an artist expanding his skill set with the piano, guitar, and co-writing sessions, Proehl isn't afraid of entering new territory. His smooth vocals are just the beginning — he is constantly gaining artistic inspiration from his interpersonal relationships as well as his own journey to physical recovery.With each song and piece of content that Proehl creates, he hopes his music can act as a way to help people express themselves and avoid putting on any fronts.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

What happens when the tools meant to help us heal start getting in the way of how we connect? We're exploring the rise of therapy culture and how “therapy speak” is changing the way we approach dating, conflict, and relationships. We discuss why having the right words doesn't always mean we're doing the deeper work, how psychological labels can sometimes become a way to avoid accountability, and why not every uncomfortable moment is a sign of a toxic dynamic. We also unpack how to balance self-awareness with openness, curiosity, and the ability to navigate the imperfect moments that make relationships real.

Fraudish welcomes guest Kathy Chambers, connected through LinkedIn, to discuss storytelling as a driver of change and effective marketing in cyber and fraud. Kathy shares her path from radio/TV degrees and 10+ years as a TV news producer to University of Florida media director, then pivoting during COVID to ITProTV, where she hosted 250+ audit episodes and later the Certified Ethical Hacker series, falling in love with cybersecurity's “drama” and later its protective mission. She describes producing a cybersecurity show, quickly booking major industry names, and networking through conferences like Wireless Hacking Fest. They discuss how stories—not statistics—stick in presentations, fraud, and cyber marketing, criticizing generic “AI-powered” messaging and advocating people-centered narratives, even via scenarios when privacy blocks details.

Subscribe to get access to the full episode, the episode reading list, and all premium episodes! www.patreon.com/OrdinaryUnhappinessThe Summer of Narcissism brings Abby, Patrick, and Dan to Freud's landmark 1914 essay, “On Narcissism: An Introduction.” While the sexologists considered narcissism a niche sexual perversion occurring only among a small number of adults, Freud structuralized the concept into a broader model of universal processes of development and subject formation. Moreover, Freud argued that some kind of narcissism was necessary for any basic human capacity for self-esteem, and saw it implicated not only in comparatively rare pathological formations, but also in socially celebrated activities like parenting and falling in love. And as Abby, Patrick, and Dan explore, while much of Freud's essay hasn't stood the test of time (especially in its homophobia and misogyny), his distinction between “primary narcissism” and “secondary narcissism” remains vital and has proven foundational for subsequent theoretical and clinical thinking about personality disorders, treatability, and more.Have you noticed that Freud is back?

What if your genes aren't controlling your destiny nearly as much as you've been taught to believe? And what if many of the patterns shaping your health, relationships, behavior, and perception of the world were programmed into you before you were even consciously aware of them? In this powerful conversation, Darin sits down with stem cell biologist and bestselling author Dr. Bruce Lipton to explore his theories around epigenetics, subconscious programming, consciousness, stress, evolution, and the mind-body connection. Bruce also opens up about his experience with tongue cancer and how it forced him to confront the very ideas about biology and belief that he had spent decades teaching. Together, they explore Bruce's claim that we spend as much as 95% of our lives operating through subconscious programs, many of which were downloaded during early childhood. Bruce explains why he believes our perception of the environment influences biology, why taking responsibility for unconscious patterns is essential to reclaiming personal power, and how those programs can be rewritten. The conversation expands beyond individual health into humanity itself, challenging the cultural story of "survival of the fittest" and exploring cooperation, community, consciousness, spirituality, environmental collapse, and why Bruce believes the upheaval we're experiencing may actually represent an evolutionary turning point.

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.

How can architectural thinking, technology, and a shift from outputs to outcomes empower designers to solve complex human challenges beyond the built environment?In this episode of Practice Disrupted, host Evelyn Lee sits down with Michael Caton, a Pratt-trained architect whose non-traditional career trajectory spans international mega-projects, technology-driven practice, mass timber housing, and pediatric behavioral health. Michael shares how graduating into the 2008 financial crisis launched a global journey, from construction administration on an Abu Dhabi hotel spanning a Formula One track to civic leadership in Brooklyn, that fundamentally reshaped how he views the architect's role in the room.Michael reflects on his evolution through technology-focused roles at Studio V, enterprise spatial delivery at WeWork, and his five-year tenure as the first design hire at mass timber startup Juno. Along the way, he completed a full-stack engineering bootcamp and navigated the counterintuitive realities of scaling housing innovations. He discusses the critical mindset of falling in love with the problem rather than the solution, and how his personal journey as a parent to a neurodivergent son led him to found Lumi, a pediatric behavioral health startup delivering real-time, multi-player behavioral guidance for families.The conversation culminates in an inspiring case for the future of architectural agency. Michael challenges firm leaders to look beyond drawing sets and physical artifacts to focus on the true transformations clients are buying. By prioritizing outcomes over outputs, he argues, design thinkers can leverage their problem-solving superpowers to create profound, measurable impact across the built environment and far beyond."If we really focus on those outcomes and that impact through the eyes of that client, those users in very deep ways, that makes the work that we create all the more powerful." - Michael CatonThis episode serves as a powerful reminder that an architect's greatest skill is not merely generating drawings, but applying systems thinking and design synthesis to complex human needs. By focusing on outcomes over outputs, design leaders can expand their agency and unlock meaningful transformation in traditional practice and new industries alike.Guest:Michael Caton, AIA, is an architect, technologist, and founder of Lumi, a pediatric behavioral health startup dedicated to supporting neurodivergent families with real-time, personalized behavioral guidance. A graduate of Pratt Institute, Michael's multi-faceted career spans international project delivery in the UAE and Switzerland, civic leadership advocacy with AIA New York, enterprise workplace delivery at WeWork, and mass timber product development as the first design hire at Juno. Combining architectural expertise with full-stack software engineering, he is a passionate advocate for outcome-driven design and leveraging technology to strengthen human connections.This episode is especially for you if: ✅ You are curious about how architectural training can open doors to non-traditional, high-impact careers outside conventional firm practice.✅ You want to explore the compelling case for prioritizing outcomes over outputs to increase client value and professional agency. ✅ You are eager to learn about the counterintuitive challenges and supply-chain realities of scaling mass timber housing startups. ✅ You want to understand how personal lived experience and empathy can drive the creation of human-centered tech startups. ✅ You believe that technology should be leveraged to foster deeper human connections and solve sticky societal problems.How are you prioritizing outcomes over outputs in your practice?

On this week's Talkhouse Podcast, we've got two guys who might seem miles apart musically, but who are fans of each other's work nonetheless. It's Sondre Lerche and William Basinski. Lerche is the Norwegian pop master who's released a ton of amazing records over the past couple of decades. He's flirted with jazzy sounds and more straightforward chamber pop, and he's also spent time doing soundtrack work. His career took an interesting turn recently with a starring role in the stage musical Moulin Rouge!, which kept him away from his own music-making for a while. But he returns now with Acrobats, a gorgeously rendered album on which he tries to reconcile falling in love with life in what feels like a cruel world. (Don't worry, you can still sing along.) Check out the song “Little Kids” from Acrobats right here. You know what you probably won't be singing along to? William Basinski's breakthrough ambient masterpiece The Disintegration Loops. If you're not familiar, The Disintegration Loops came about when Basinski began recording the sound of some of his older works, which were on magnetic tape, decaying. Looped over the course of about five hours, the sounds are mesmerizing and occasionally scary. They were finished on September 11, 2001, and became inextricably linked with the terror attacks of that day. They've since been reissued several times, and now the loops are even being performed live by symphony orchestras, a topic that's touched on here. There's a lot more to Basinski's career than I can touch on in one paragraph, but check out The Disintegration Loops if you never have—it's an experience. So why are these two guys chatting, one a pop maker and the other making floating soundscapes? Well it turns out that Lerche is a fan of Basinski's, and he even referenced The Disintegration Loops in a 2022 song called “Avatars of Love.” The two have since met and become friends, as you'll hear in this chat. They talk about Lerche's time in the musical, about Basinski's music being performed by actual humans, and of course about how the world is a fucked-up place. It is!

Synopsis From a young age, Maren (played by Taylor Russell) has carried the innate urge to consume human flesh—a hunger that has shaped nearly every aspect of her life. Shortly after turning 18 and finding herself on her own, she sets out across the country in search of her estranged mother. Along the way, Maren encounters a colorful cast of outsiders and drifters, including Lee (played by Timothée Chalamet), with whom she develops a budding romance. Through this coming-of-age story, Luca Guadagnino explores themes of queerness, identity, loneliness, and life on the fringes of society. Review of Bones and All Bones and all is a great romance movie for horror lovers It's artsy and at times weird for the sake of being weird but through the use of cannibalism we get a representation of the intense otherness that some feel The approach to queerness is very interesting as how characters are shown in a more dynamic way where it's a part of the character than their whole identity. (for example unlike stereotypes) On the horror front the gore is very well done and visually striking every time The characters are weird, and interesting to watch with great performances from all the actors involved It makes you want a bigger look of what this world make look like in different situations This is a great adaptation of Camille DeAngelis's book by the same name in that it keeps the source material close to home but makes enough changes to make it artistically distinct. The only criticism I really have is that the film lingers a little too long on the bliss of romance and falling in love on the road without really diving into what makes them love each other besides both being outsiders. I also would have loved the film to get even darker and perhaps show more horror-esque scenes. Score 9/10
Why do you keep falling in love with the same toxic person, just wearing a different face?I sat down with Ross Rosenberg, MEd, the author of the bestselling book Human Magnet Syndrome, and a psychotherapist whose work has reached over 34 million YouTube views and sold 200K books in 12 languages.Ross has spent decades untangling the real roots of codependency and reframed it as what he calls Self-Love Deficit Disorder.We get into the invisible pull between people who give everything away and people who take it, and why that chemistry so often feels like fate when it is really just familiar pain.He breaks down the pyramid that starts with attachment trauma, builds into core shame and pathological loneliness, and ends in compulsive attraction to narcissistic personality disorder. His method for reaching memories the conscious mind cannot access explains why talk therapy alone rarely breaks these cycles.We also cover emotional incest and what it takes to divorce a narcissist.Visit selfloverecovery.com and use code LUKE to save 35% off all books, courses, and seminars.

Is AI making dating easier or disconnecting us even further? We're unpacking how artificial intelligence is reshaping modern dating, from AI-generated profiles and photos to matchmaking tools and dating coaches. We discuss the ways AI can help people feel more confident and make dating easier, while also exploring the risks around authenticity, emotional outsourcing, and losing the human moments that make connection meaningful. We also dive into the future of AI companions and ask the bigger question: can technology enhance our relationships without replacing the vulnerability and presence they require? If you've ever wondered whether AI is the future of dating or a threat to genuine connection, this conversation is for you.

Most people chase happiness as a feeling and wait for certainty before making big decisions, and both instincts quietly backfire. Dr. Arthur Brooks joins Dr. Gabrielle Lyon to break down what happiness is and how to act on it.In this episode, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon and Dr. Arthur Brooks discuss:The three "macronutrients" of happiness - enjoyment, satisfaction, and meaning, and why pursuing pleasure alone leads to detox, not happinessA usable rule for any hard decision: aim for roughly 80% excitement, 20% fear, and near-zero "deadness" once you have about 80% situational awarenessWhy solo pleasures don't stick if you're doing it alone, you're probably doing it wrong, and how enjoyment requires people plus memoryHow GLP-1s, SSRIs, and hormonal shifts can dull motivation, reward, and desire, and why knowing this gives you power over itSimple tech protocols: phone-free first hour, meals, and last hour that protect oxytocin, meaning, and connectionUnderstand happiness as something you build rather than something you wait to feel, and you walk away with concrete tools to decide better, connect deeper, and stop mistaking achievement for love.Want ad-free episodes?

Nobody puts a picture of the barn in the listing and says, "We're not completely sure what's holding this thing up." Buying a homestead is a lot like dating — and today we're playing Would you date this homestead? We're past the basics. You know your price, your location, your acreage. This is what happens after the property catches your eye: what the listing photos aren't showing you, what to look for when you finally walk the land, the deed restriction that nearly cost us the property we loved, and the plumbing problem hiding under our slab that no inspection caught. I'm Wendi Bergin — Realtor, homesteader, and someone who has crossed a beautiful property off her own list more than once. Preparedness brings peace, not fear. That applies to buying land too.

I'll help you interview an agent A few things worth writing down The listing tells you whether you want a first date. It's not enough to decide whether you want to marry it. Fencing, outbuildings, water, and power are separate questions. Pipes to the stall don't mean working water; a barn can have water and no electricity. Stand still on the property for a full minute. Photos can't carry traffic noise, barking dogs, a shooting range, or the smell from the neighbor's operation. "Plenty of room for animals" and "legally allowed to have animals" are two entirely different things. Check zoning, deed restrictions, and HOA documents yourself — even on large acreage. Inspections don't catch everything. Ours didn't catch the plumbing under the slab, because nobody had lived in the house for three years. The question isn't whether the property has baggage. It does. The question is whether it's baggage you can afford, manage, and live with.

Preserving the Dome and the Dip: Secrets to Mastering the Dandie Dinmont Standard This episode of the Dandie Dinmont Terrier Diaries is part of Pure Dog Talk's Clubhouse. The series features members of the Club Partnership Program who are working to preserve the knowledge of their legacy breeders. Host Laura Reeves is joined by the legendary Donna Francis of Elfwish Kennels. With a storied career spanning decades as an AKC-licensed professional handler, skilled groomer and breeder, Donna shares her rich history in the sport. She recounts her evolution from early days with Beagles, Siberian Huskies, and Pembroke Welsh Corgis to her deep-dive into Dandie Dinmonts. Throughout the conversation, Donna provides master-class insights on the critical mechanics of canine structure, the realities of grooming a three-textured terrier coat, and why "type-to-type" line breeding remains the most reliable path to preserving the breed's authentic hallmarks. Whether you are a newcomer looking for mentorship, an aspiring judge or a seasoned breeder, Donna's candid advice offers a rare and valuable masterclass in breed preservation. From a Sold Saddle to Siberian Huskies: Donna's Early Years The $35 Beagle: Donna shares how she sold her horse saddle at age 11 to buy her first purebred Beagle puppy, who went on to become a champion at her very first dog show.Becoming a Professional Handler: After breeding Siberian Huskies in Olmsted Falls, Ohio, Donna worked hard to earn her AKC handling license, committing to perfection and developing an expert "eye for a dog".The Birth of Elfwish: How a chance meeting with Sandy Wolfskill led to co-owning the number-one Pembroke Welsh Corgi bitch in the country and creating the "Elfwish" kennel name, inspired by a Corgi named Wishin and a small elf statue. Falling in Love with the Dandie Dinmont Meeting Elsbeth: Initially finding them "funny looking," Donna was won over by Elsbeth, a Dandie Dinmont breeder Betty-Anne Stenmark selected for them. Elsbeth went on to win the specialty that weekend and even charmed actor Orlando Bloom in first class on the flight home.Crufts Success with Kevin:Donna reflects on her "heart dog," Kevin, who won second at the Terrier Group at Crufts and became a cornerstone stud dog for their breeding program, siring national winners for years. Deep Dive into Structure, Type, and Movement The Danger of Over-Sizing: Donna warns that many modern Dandies are being bred too large, explaining that a head that is too big or a dog with incorrect proportions cannot properly enter and exit a burrow to do its historical job.The Anatomy of a Working Terrier:The Rib Cage: A long rib cage is vital to protect the dog's internal organs from badgers, paired with a slightly shorter loin.The Topline: Dandies have a highly specific, slight topline rise that is easily bred incorrectly, warning against "roached" backs or rear-high structures.Fronts and Feet: A correct front assembly requires a "wrap around" and strong, tight feet and toes so the dog can dig. Movement on the Go: Donna describes the ideal Dandie gate as a smooth, gliding reach and drive with a stable topline, cautioning against short, choppy steps that signal a flawed front assembly. The Art and Challenge of Grooming Three Coat Textures: Grooming a Dandie is notoriously difficult because of their three distinct textures (the harsh outer coat, soft medium coat, and inner coat).Stripping and Scissoring: Donna discusses the necessity of stripping dead hair weekly to prevent the dog's proportions from looking distorted, emphasizing that a bad grooming job can obscure a great dog, while expert grooming can make a poor structure look passable to untrained eyes. Hard-Hitting Advice for Breed Preservation Type-to-Type Breeding: Donna strongly advocates for breeding "type-to-type" and line breeding, choosing pairs with highly similar physical styles rather than chasing superficial "all-breed winner" studs, which often results in a "mishmash" litter.The Value of Mentorship: Her primary advice for newcomers is to find a trusted mentor, stick with them, and ignore political gossip. She urges established breeders to open their arms and support new exhibitors rather than pushing them away.Temperament is Non-Negotiable: Donna explains that showmanship is "90% of it," requiring a bold, tail-wagging dog with a stable, friendly temperament. She urges socialization through puppy classes and cautions against placing unstable temperaments in companion homes.Dandie Reproduction: Insights on the difficulty of breeding Dandies, including Donna's success with side-by-side artificial insemination (AI) on a table, the necessity of pre-whelping x-rays and ultrasounds, and managing selective C-sections. For more information on Dandie Dinmont Terriers.
I grew up watching Penn State football. The 90s with names like Ki-Jana, McDuffie, Collins, LaVar and more. They inspired all of us in PA and many across the nation. For Penn State in 2026, they hope new quarterback Rocco Becht does the same thing.And after sitting down with him in today's Y-Option podcast, fueled by 76 keeping you on the GO GO GO so you never miss a beat, I think he's going to do exactly that in Matt Campbell's first year.Rocco and I dove into falling in love with football in high school, the transition from Iowa State to Penn State, and how he's learned to lead from the inside out. Growing up with an NFL Dad he has had to learn how to handle expectations and navigate praise and blame. That will serve him well this fall as gameday is right around the corner. I'm back on the road, heading to Pullman, Seattle, Ames, Iowa City, Bloomington and finishing up in Rocco's new town, State College. When back, Todd Blackledge and I will recap our respective camp tours right here at Y-Option.

Can you actually date men when it feels like everyone is telling you not to trust them? We're unpacking how social media, clickbait headlines, and a constant stream of negative dating stories can make distrust feel like the default. We discuss why the loudest relationship narratives often aren't the most common ones, how to separate real red flags from fear-driven assumptions, and why paying attention to patterns of behavior matters more than blanket rules about who can or can't be trusted. We also explore how past experiences shape our expectations, where accountability belongs on both sides of dating, and how to balance healthy skepticism without closing yourself off to genuine connection.

Sondre Lerche has been writing songs for most of his life. He released his debut Faces Down more than two decades ago, and somehow, eleven albums later, he's still finding ways to make the whole thing feel new. We talk about his new record Acrobats, spending years rewriting a single song, falling in love in a world that can make happiness feel almost irresponsible, and what performing 130 shows of *Moulin Rouge!* taught him about singing, acting, and pushing himself somewhere completely unfamiliar. We also get into getting older, vanity, learning to let go of how other people see you, his lifelong style obsession, the influence of A-ha's Morten Harket, vintage clothes, Ralph Lauren, and why some of his earliest songs are harder for him to revisit than others. * Sponsored by Bezel - the trusted marketplace for buying and selling your next luxury watch Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

If you're looking at a “shows canceled too soon” list, there's a good chance Netflix's GLOW is on it. The Liz Flahive and Carly Mensch-created series first debuted on Netflix in 2017, and quickly had viewers falling in love with its electric ensemble packed with a wide array of big personalities.Alison Brie's Ruth Wilder is a struggling actor who scores a rather unusual opportunity. In 1985, Ruth is cast in the Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling. It's a show that's the first of its kind — a wrestling television show featuring all female wrestlers. Ruth and the rest of the cast, including Betty Gilpin's Debbie, Gayle Rankin's Sheila, Jackie Tohn's Melrose, and Sydelle Noel's Cherry, take their underdog wrestling production on an epic roller coaster ride that lands them in Las Vegas, performing GLOW matches live. Season 3 ends with a glimmer of hope for getting GLOW back on television, but we never got to see if Debbie and Bash's (Chris Lowell) plan panned out because Netflix canceled GLOW in October 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, despite having renewed it for a fourth and final season.Not only are fans still thinking about GLOW seven years after it wrapped its run, but so are the show's stars, like Alison Brie. While on the press circuit promoting her new movie, Masters of the Universe, Brie carved out the time to make her second appearance on Collider Ladies Night, and while discussing scene partners who made an indelible impression on her, she was moved to tears recalling her collaboration with GLOW co-star, Betty Gilpin.
