Her portrait by David is one of the most iconic paintings in the Louvre's entire collection, and attracts millions of viewers each year. As she reclines on her sofa, a sofa she popularized so much that it now bears her name, she teases us with her curly hair, rosy cheeks, and inscrutable smile. Though her image has been reproduced in countless mediums across the globe, few know that she was one of the most remarkable women of the nineteenth century, and inspired the greatest artists, writers, intellects, and politicians of her day, with not only her unrivaled beauty but with the goodness of her heart. In this episode of ArtMuse, we share the immense life story of Madame Juliette Récamier, a French socialite and famed beauty, affectionately dubbed the “darling of Europe”. In fact, her looks were so enchanting, that she drove some of the most powerful men of all of history wild with desire, including Napoleon Bonaparte, his brother Lucien, and the Prince of Prussia.

About the Guest(s):Amy IrvineAmy Irvine is the CEO and founder of the Rooted Planning Group, a financial planning firm dedicated to helping individuals and families cultivate a thriving financial future. With extensive experience in the finance industry, Amy is a respected voice in personal finance, often highlighted for her unique insights and practical advice aimed at improving financial literacy. As a passionate advocate for financial equality, she frequently contributes to discussions on contemporary financial issues, especially those impacting women.Episode Summary:In this insightful episode of Money Roots, host Amy Irvine delves deep into the intertwined history of women and money, while also exploring foundational concepts of the money supply. Released during Women's History Month, this episode provides a timely reflection on how historical gender biases have shaped financial opportunities and challenges for women over centuries. From elucidating the definitions of M1, M2, and M3 money supplies to detailing landmark legislative changes that aimed to rectify gender-based financial inequalities, Amy delivers a wealth of information meant to empower and educate listeners.Throughout the episode, Amy Irvine sheds light on the significant historical milestones that have shaped women's financial rights and opportunities. With a nod to landmark legislation such as the Married Women's Property Act and the Equal Credit Opportunity Act, listeners are guided through two centuries of evolution in women's financial rights. Highlighting the persistent wage gap, which has seen stagnant improvement since 2003, Amy calls for continued education and advocacy, emphasizing the role of allies in supporting financial gender equality. By understanding the past, Amy believes, we pave a clearer path for a future where financial parity can be realized.Key Takeaways:Understanding Money Supply: Amy introduces listeners to the basic concepts of money supply, categorized into M1, M2, and M3, explaining their roles in economic growth and inflation.Historical Gender-Based Financial Inequality: The episode tracks the timeline of female financial rights, revealing the extent of historical discrimination that women faced in terms of property ownership, credit access, and professional opportunities.Legislative Milestones: Key legislative acts such as the Married Women's Property Act and the Title IX are highlighted, portraying their impact on women's rights and financial autonomy.The Persistent Gender Wage Gap: Despite progress, there remains a significant gap in earnings between women and men, citing statistics that reveal women earn approximately 85% of what men do.Call to Action for Financial Equality: Encouragement is given to allies—parents, partners, and friends—to support women in achieving financial literacy and independence.Notable Quotes:"The reason that I'm bringing this up is because we've been having a lot of conversations with people about money supply in general.""If you can't vote, you have no say over what does and doesn't happen to you.""So technically, women at that point in time, if they got pregnant prior to that, you could lose your job, you could lose your way of supporting yourself.""There's still a lot that we need to do to continue to bring parity to the way that women earn money, get paid, our relationship with money, all of that.""For Women's History Month, if you have a daughter, if you have a niece, if you have a wife, support her in the way that, you know, promotes this continued direction towards parity of pay."Resources:Rooted Planning Group:

A man chanced upon his wife's journals when he was cleaning the closets. He simply couldn't help himself. He read some of them, and learned about her erotic desires in a way he hadn't known before. It made him fall in love with her all over again. But now what? Should he tell her what he did? Blindfold magic! A woman had a transcendent experience when her boyfriend blindfolded her and then...removed the blindfold. There he was! And he was suddenly more beautiful than ever. On the Magnum, Dan welcomes writer, and actor Jeffery Self. What do two introverted, homosexual men have to talk about? Plenty, it turns out! Self's new memoir is deeply personal and fearless. He and Dan chat about the pros and cons of male sex work, why straight men are so jealous of gay men, and the deep dread the words "gay cruise" inspire in them both. Also, they take a call from a woman whose boyfriend is unaware of how stinky his balls are. So you don't want to miss that. And, a woman's boyfriend is wracked with guilt when she gives him deep, gag-inducing blowjobs. She loves it, but he can't get over the misogynist associations.

For Women's History Month, Dr. Dan speaks to bestselling author, humorist, and feminist icon Gina Barreca about famous women in history and why these women's voices and stories matter now more than ever. Their conversation is impactful and thought-provoking whether Dan and Gina are talking about Taylor Swift, Joan Rivers, Eleanor of Aquitaine, Fannie Brice, or Patti LaBelle – all featured in her new book Fast Famous Women – because these women changed history and challenged the patriarchy. With passion and purpose, Dan and Gina cover urgent 2025 topics including listening to women, believing women, and respecting women. They discuss power dynamics, the two “f” words (feminism and fear), and why Gina's 4-volume Fast Women series is hopeful, timely, and necessary reading.

A woman's 74 year-old father has started dating a 19 year-old woman, and no one in her family besides her is batting an eye. She is horrified and refuses to meet the lass or speak to her father until the relationship ends. Is she being too harsh?  A British poly man has an American girlfriend who comes to visit now and again. She asked him to take her to a sex party, but there's a hitch. She screams to kingdom come during sex. The caller is worried that his more reserved British sex party compatriots will find her conduct unseemly.  On the Magnum, Dan simply couldn't resist bringing on Sunshyne for a "What Are You Doing?"

He and Dan talk about his work, how he got there, and whether women or men give better head.  A gay man and his boyfriend do not agree about sex. His boyfriend wants monogamy and routine, unadventurous sex. The caller yearns for more sex, and more variety.
