Just as we're hitting the 10th Anniversary of Federal Marriage Equality in the US, Dennis is joined via Zoom by Frankie Frankeny, the driving creative force behind the gorgeous and comprehensive new coffee table book Love: The Heroic Stories of Marriage Equality. Frankie recalls how she first became passionate about the cause of marriage equality decades ago, doing entensive research for the book and discovering stories she never knew before and her hope that the book will be available in schools so queer kids can learn their history in a way that her generation never did. She also talks about contributing her own photos to the book and her hopes that, aesthetically speaking, the book will be something two lesbians in Tennessee or the chic designer Tom Ford would be proud to put on their coffee table. Other topics include: the pressure LGBT couples involved in court cases feel to be perfect and the stress that puts on a relationship, attorney Evan Wolfson's emotional Harvard thesis on the topic, boundary-pushing straight allies like Phil Donahue, Joe Biden and Gavin Newsom, her successful career as a cookbook photographer and why she loves that work and coming out for the first time as a kid to her beloved pet dachshund by saying, "I'm going to have a wife one day." www.justmarried.us

“In my mind, Belle is going through life, at least our version of Belle – I've never met the real Belle – she's going through life with this hole inside, this overwhelming need for approval, that social media absolutely capitalizes on and she just keeps trying to feed the beast. She hasn't grown up with the healthiest of role models herself. She has learnt that being sick is a shortcut to being loved and to getting attention,” says Samantha Strauss, creator and showrunner for the Netflix limited series Apple Cider Vinegar, about understanding her main character's disgraceful motivation to lie about having brain cancer.  Adapted from the book, The Woman Who Fooled the World, by Beau Donelly and Nick Toscano, Apple Cider Vinegar chronicles the incredible and heartbreaking rise and fall of the real Belle Gibson (Kaitlin Dever), a notorious health and wellness “scamfluencer.” Strauss talks about starting her young life in Australia as a ballet dancer before a terrible injury led her to discover TV writing. She also talks about how her previous TV show, The End, got the attention of Nicole Kidman, who championed her writing career. Strauss gushes about how she was inspired by Kidman's, “Fierce intelligence, just exactly what you'd expect, and rigor. You know, she would be giving notes at the end of a really long day of filming. She wasn't resting on her laurels at all. There's just such a generosity of spirit there and to think she's helped other emerging Australian creatives is pretty special,” she says.  Strauss discusses the challenges of adapting a true story while the subject is still alive, tips and tricks for making the show feel immediate and seductive while mimicking the addictive nature of social media, and getting the primal relationship of mothers and daughters authentic on screen.  To hear more about Apple Cider Vinegar and Strauss's advice for writers adapting true stories, listen to the podcast.

“I always say to young writers, you need to put your heart on the page. Don't worry about being like anyone else. I would say that foremost, in any of the arts, it is self-expression at its core. I don't buy rules or a set criteria or a static criteria. I don't believe in any of that. I think the most exciting talents are kind of inexplicable. You can't really understand why that art works. It just does, and that feels like it comes from a very pure place.I think that it all goes back to childhood. I've always really been writing about family. I suppose we always are. I do think that it is the original wound, and it's where we are kind of wired and built from those early years. So I think every other relationship just replicates that. It's very natural for me to go there, I suppose because the feelings are most intense there. We just keep recycling these relationships and dynamics over and over again—until maybe someday we can catch ourselves and try to break the bad patterns.

How women persuade and convince one another of things feels particularly complex to me. I think there are so many layers to female relationships. That was really interesting to me to pursue because, in some ways, it's much more veiled and complex.

Want to be a guest or know someone would be a great fit? I am looking for military vets, active duty, military brats, veteran service orgs or anyone in the fitness industry I wanted to let you  know that I will be taking a much needed break  which is crucial  to anyone's health and wellness. Resting gives everyone a chance to rest, reflect and come back stronger.While I'm away, we'll be revisiting some of our favorite episodes. from the 2024 symposium, where I had the pleasure of speaking with some exciting individuals who are stand outs in their field. Subjects like plant based nutrition, menopause, gut and bone health.  These are episodes that have sparked insightful conversations, inspired me, and resonated deeply with our community. We believe that they deserve another moment in the spotlight and we hope you'll enjoy revisiting them as much as I do.Mark your calendars because we'll be back with fresh, new episodes on August 5, 2025. We're excited about the ideas we have in store for you and we can't wait to share them.Here is Day 1 of the 2024 symposium with the Fierce Leader of the My Sexy Business Team and Community - Kim WhitWhat if the key to feeling younger, more energetic, and healthier was simpler than we thought? When Kim White found herself battling constant exhaustion, unexplained pain, and feeling "old" before her time, she knew something had to change. After watching the documentary "Game Changer," she decided to try plant-based eating – a decision that would transform her health and vitality in ways she never imagined possible.Kim's journey wasn't about weight loss or following trends – it was about survival. Together with her husband (a self-proclaimed "meatitarian" who surprised her by joining completely), they discovered that within just weeks of eliminating meat, dairy, and eggs, their bodies began to transform. Morning aches vanished, afternoon energy crashes disappeared, and that uncomfortable "rock gut" feeling after meals became a distant memory. Most surprisingly, her husband effortlessly lost 100 pounds without counting calories or feeling deprived.Throughout our conversation, Kim dispels common misconceptions about plant-based eating. Far from feeling hungry or restricted, she describes a lifestyle where they "eat all they want" while enjoying improved satiation. She shares practical strategies like batch cooking beans and rice weekly, using vegetable broth instead of oil for sautéing, creating quick "throw together" meals for busy days, and even making homemade plant-based cheeses that taste better than dairy versions.For those curious but hesitant, Kim offers accessible starting points: begin by noticing how different foods make you feel, try one plant-based meal weekly, or simply explore recipes that sound delicious regardless of labels. Her experience proves that small changes can lead to dramatic improvements in how we feel in our bodies – without deprivation, complicated cooking methods, or breaking the bank.Ready to explore how adding more plants to your plate might transform your own health? Listen now to get inspired by Kim's practical wisdom and infectious enthusiasm for feeling good from the inside out.

We just keep recycling these relationships and dynamics over and over again—until maybe someday we can catch ourselves and try to break the bad patterns. It feels the most visceral and real to me, always. You're always looking for that in writing. You want everything to be at this peak intensity, or at least I do. That seems the most natural place to start.I've thought about that a lot while writing the book. We really are in the age of the grifter, as they keep saying. In some ways, it's the most deeply American type, the hustler of American aspiration. And money, I think that was hovering in my head when I wrote the book. How women persuade and convince one another of things feels particularly complex to me. I think there are so many layers to female relationships. That was really interesting to me to pursue because, in some ways, it's much more veiled and complex. So I tend to write about groups of women a lot, regardless of the field, but particularly the way they communicate or don't communicate, or communicate without words to one another, is an ongoing fascination of mine.”Megan Abbott is the Edgar award-winning author of twelve crime novels, including Beware the Woman, You Will Know Me, Give Me Your Hand, and the New York Times bestseller The Turnout, the winner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize.

FamBino Fire: Fielding, Fun, and Fierce Competition FamBino Fire: Fielding, Fun, and Fierce Competition blazes onto the scene with an action-packed conversation featuring FamBino winners Marley and Rilee. Joined by guest co-host Anne Belle “AB” Crowe, this episode of The SLIDE Podcast takes listeners inside the high-energy infield competition hosted by the BamFam organization in Indianapolis. From do-or-die plays to cereal debates and future college dreams, this one's got heart, humor, and hustle. The Grit Behind the Glory At just 10 years old, Marley has already secured a three-peat title, and 17-year-old Rilee isn't far behind with back-to-back wins. Both athletes trained hard for an intense eight-hour infield competition that tested more than just their glove work. “I felt like I had it in the bag, but I was still nervous I'd choke,” Marley admits, describing the pressure of defending her title. The contest included skills tests, barehand drills, reaction exercises, and digital assessments—all part of what makes BamFam's competition so elite. Despite their age difference, Marley and Rilee share an unmatched fire for fielding and a love for team chemistry that drives them to keep winning. Softball Dreams and Future Goals Beyond the chains and competitions, both players have big dreams. Rilee is committed to Anderson University, planning to pursue a career as an educator while returning to BamFam to coach. Marley, meanwhile, already has eyes on Oklahoma or Washington for college. “I love softball because I get to compete and be with my team,” she says. From shortstop swagger to base-stealing finesse, the episode dives into their training routines, family dynamics, and even their personal walkout songs—“Rocketeer” by Far East Movement for Rilee and “King's Affirmation” by Iniko for Marley. Trick Plays, Swamp Donkeys & Softball Style Things get fun as the conversation turns to double sallys, backhand flexes, and even the meaning of “swamp donkey” (spoiler: it's a home run!). With plenty of laughs and insightful coaching wisdom, the crew makes it clear that these FamBino winners are more than just elite fielders—they're future leaders in softball. Join the Movement This episode isn't just about a win—it's about what it takes to stay winning.

President Donald Trump put the pharmaceutical industry on notice early Monday with the signing of his "most favored nation" (MFN) executive order on drug prices. The order seeks to tie U.S. prices to significantly lower costs overseas. Many questions remain about how the measure will be implemented, and legal challenges are almost certain. To assess the seriousness of the threat, Fierce Pharma assembled a team of reporters and editors to break down the executive order and the industry’s response. After examining the MFN executive order, the group dives into other recent policy developments in Washington, D.C., and beyond, including tariffs, Medicare drug price negotiations and more. To learn more about the topics in this episode: Trump signs sweeping executive order to cut US drug prices by 'up to 90%' Sanofi, Novartis CEOs lambast EU price control as Trump reportedly weighs drug cost parity with other nations As Trump threatens tariffs on drugs, industry warns EU of $100B-plus pharma exodus to US US net drug spending surged 11.4% last year, boosted by obesity and oncology meds: IQVIA This episode is sponsored by Cencora.

In honor of Mother's Day this week, we revisit the story of one mom who went to extraordinary lengths to make sure her daughter always felt her love, even after she was gone. Each time Genevieve Kingston reached a milestone — a birthday, her first period, high school graduation, she'd reach into the box her mom had packed for her and pull out the note and gift that went with that occasion. Her mom had known she was dying of cancer, so during Kingston's childhood, she'd poured an incredible amount of care and creativity into the project. Today we hear Kingston's essay about the discoveries the box held for her, from her first birthday without her mom at age 12, into her 30s.  We also hear a mother's "Tiny Love Story" (a Modern Love essay in miniature) about trying to connect with her teenage son, and get his surprisingly thoughtful reaction.Listener Callout:How did your dad express his feelings? Tell us your story in a voice memo, and you might hear yourself in a future episode. For Father's Day, the Modern Love team is looking at different ways dads show their feelings, and we want to know about a moment when your dad opened up to you. Where were you? What did he do or say? How did you react? Did it have a lasting impact on you? And if you're a dad, how do you think about showing emotion or vulnerability when you're with your kids? Is it something you do intentionally? Does it feel easy? Hard? The deadline is May 15.
