Listener Week on Woman's Hour is where we bring your stories, ideas and the issues you want to hear about to air.How much of the detail about your marriage or long-term relationship do you share with your best friends? One listener says her husband is unwilling to discuss any of their issues, or go to therapy, but that she feels she can't talk to friends honestly about their relationship either. To discuss, Kylie Pentelow is joined by psychotherapist Julia Samuel and Natasha Lunn, author of Conversations on Love, a bestselling book.Are library closures misogynistic? Woman's Hour listener Kirsten thinks so. She believes that libraries help women in a whole range of ways - from providing employment to toddler groups - and so closing them disproportionately affects them. She'll join Isobel Hunter, Chief Executive of Libraries Connected, to discuss. Over 70,000 babies each year require specialist care on a neonatal unit (NICU). Parents of these babies feel the impact on their mental health from time spent in NICU is overlooked. With one in seven babies spending time in NICU, listeners Lorna Tallowin and Lottie King contacted the programme to highlight the long-term impact on the families affected.Judith got in touch to share the benefits of intergenerational friendships and the difference they can make to our lives. Judith and Iona are best friends. She's 76 and Iona is 22. They join Kylie to discuss. Presenter: Kylie Pentelow Producer: Kirsty Starkey

And finally, we talk about the fighting zones in a river, meaning, what types of water are a safe choice for fighting the biggest trout of your life?We also go through a little more on the hooksets from last week, and we briefly discuss how much of this applies to the stillwater game and to other species.Here's the Episode List for Season 201.

Listen to today's podcast... Witmer and Sweeney found in their study that people with few ties to others had 2 to 5 times the death rate as those who had more ties. Support and connectedness can be a powerful tool in preventing illness by acting as a buffer to the effects of stress. The benefit of friendship is having the emotional support of a community during difficult times. Workplaces are also recognizing the value of support in their organizations. Effective leaders are evaluating their teams and ensuring that they reduce isolation, celebrate occasions and successes, develop trust through effective communication, deal with conflict and gossip in a direct and open way, promote a casual and friendly atmosphere, and develop a support network through human resources, an EAP or connection to community contacts. Unfortunately, many people in the workplace do not make the effort to utilize this great coping strategy and the busier we have become the easier it is to let our existing friendships go by the way-side. So where do we start? Take One Action Today To Build Your #Resiliency!      Here are today's Hot Tips For Building Resiliency and Celebrating International Friendship Week: At work and in your community, smile and say hello to those around you Connect with your co-workers informally Call, write or email those friends that you have lost touch with and book a date to get together Connectedness and friendships have exceptional powers in decreasing our stress, if we venture to put ourselves ‘out there'.

It's the end of an era...but not CockTales.Medinah returns to CockTales one final time to share what she's been up to, what she's learned during this season of transition, and why she made the difficult decision to step away from the show after nearly 500 episodes.Kiki and Medinah reflect on growing up publicly, doing things scared, navigating new relationships, unlearning old patterns, and accepting when something meaningful no longer aligns with the direction your life is taking. They also discuss the pressure to give people every detail, why closure does not always come with a dramatic explanation, and how walking away does not have to erase the love, memories, and work that came before it.There are tears, laughter, old CockTales memories, a few final confessions, and an honest goodbye to the chapter they created together.Thank you to everyone who listened, supported, laughed, traveled, attended live shows, and grew alongside CockTales over the years.

On this episode of @Betches, Sami, Jordana, and Aleen are back for a hiatus check-in and, thanks to Josh Cellars, put their painting skills to the test. Then, they tackle a series of impossible friendship dilemmas: Would you lie to protect a surprise proposal? Tell your friend you hate their new partner? Expose who started a rumor? They also debate how many last-minute cancellations are too many, how late is officially rude, and why being late to a Zoom somehow feels even worse. Plus, they get brutally honest about bad outfits, embarrassing stains, wardrobe malfunctions, and when being a good friend means speaking up before it's too late. Learn more about your ad choices.

In this episode, we introduce Camden Bucey's new book, Defending Our Hope: An Introduction to Christian Apologetics, and trace its development from an adult Sunday school class at Hope Presbyterian Church to a twelve-lesson Reformed Academy course and now a beautiful hardcover volume. Camden and Ryan Noha explain why the book is intended as an accessible on-ramp to a distinctly Reformed approach—one grounded in the doctrines of God, revelation, and humanity rather than an imagined realm of neutral reasoning.The conversation returns again and again to the living hope of 1 Peter 1:3 and the call of 1 Peter 3:15. Christian apologetics is not chiefly about winning arguments or mastering a script; it is about bearing faithful witness to Jesus Christ, who lived, died, and rose for our salvation. Because the power belongs to God and works through his Word, ordinary believers can speak the truth in love with gentleness, respect, and genuine confidence.Chapters00:00 Introduction01:04 Introducing Defending Our Hope02:12 Upcoming Reformed Forum events04:03 The story behind the book04:28 The book and course as an accessible on-ramp07:58 Formed through the local church13:28 Apologetics in the community21:57 Friendship, community, and everyday witness24:31 Ordinary Christians and the hope within us27:09 The apologetic context of 1 Peter 3:1530:04 Always prepared—with gentleness and respect31:37 The living hope of resurrection33:39 Apologetics and evangelism34:39 Why doctrine determines apologetic method41:28 Scripture as the self-attesting Word of God50:09 Starting anywhere in God's world52:36 Faithful witnesses who tell the truth60:56 Using the book with the free Reformed Academy course62:30 Further study and ordering information65:42 Closing remarksResourcesEpisode resources and Defending Our HopeFree Reformed Academy course: Defending Our HopeReformed Forum bookstoreMentioned in this episode:Join Us In Person: Four Upcoming Reformed Forum EventsBefore today's episode, Camden Bucey shares four opportunities to gather with Reformed Forum in person over the coming months: Apologetics and Evangelism Seminar — August 4–5, 2026, Greenville Presbyterian Theological Seminary, Taylors, SC.

Hey Legends, turn this one UP!

A Texas woman survived a terrifying highway accident when a three-foot piece of rebar flew through her windshield and struck her glasses without leaving a scratch. She was driving through Flint, Texas, while delivering Instacart orders when a utility truck passed in the opposite direction and a piece of rebar came loose, flying directly toward her car. She had no time to react or move out of the way. The rebar sliced vertically through the windshield, hit her glasses, and landed in her lap, leaving her with only minor scratches. EMTs who responded to the scene told her she should not have survived the impact. She credits her survival entirely to God, saying she has no explanation for how she walked away unharmed. Ponder God can protect us in moments when there is no time to react and no way to help ourselves. Scripture “For he will give you into the care of his angels to keep you wherever you go.” Psalm 91:11 AND A simple wrong number turned into a lifelong friendship between two strangers decades apart in age. Lauren Stevens, 24, began receiving text messages on her work phone meant for someone else, all addressed to "Vern Dog." Curious, she searched online and discovered the messages were meant for Verner, a 72-year-old San Francisco photographer who had spent decades traveling the world behind a camera. What started as a mix-up grew into a genuine connection as emails turned into phone calls, phone calls turned into video chats, and eventually the two were spending time together in person, singing karaoke and making TikToks together. As Verner struggled financially in an increasingly digital world, Lauren stepped in to help by sharing his photography online and starting a GoFundMe that raised more than $40,000 in his support. What began as a wrong number became a rare and meaningful friendship that changed both of their lives. Ponder True friendship does not check birth certificates, and it can arrive through the most unexpected circumstances, including a simple wrong number. Scripture "A friend loves at all times."

In Burkina Faso, the military-led government has launched a controversial campaign targeting what it describes as religious extremism. Transitional leader Captain Ibrahim Traoré, appears to be at odds with sections of the country's Muslim community after the arrests of some clerics and signing of a new law aimed at curbing radicalisation and extremist preaching. The government has announced plans to recall about 800 Burkinabè students studying Islamic law in Arab countries, while introducing a requirement for government approval before students can pursue similar studies abroad.And today marks International Day of Friendship by the United Nations, a day that recognises how friendships between individuals, communities and cultures can foster understanding, strengthen connections and even contribute to peace. We speak to two sets of old friends who have known each other for more than two decades.

The couples talk about building deeper friendships as adults, making space for people in different seasons, and letting connection look different than it did when they were younger. They also get practical about keeping God at the center of marriage when kids, work, and everyday chaos are all competing for attention.

For the first time, Wailer is joined in the studio by his wife, Adena, as The Naked Gospel enters a brand-new chapter. Together, they share the personal story that led them into sexual integrity ministry, reflect on twenty-one years of marriage, raising six children, and why conversations about sex have become increasingly absent within the Church. They explore the lasting effects of purity culture, the silence surrounding pornography and abuse, why shame keeps so many Christians isolated, and how authentic community becomes one of God's primary tools for healing. Most importantly, they introduce the new direction of the podcast—a journey through Scripture from Genesis to Revelation, uncovering God's design for sexuality, intimacy, the body, and the Gospel itself.  Resources: 1 Corinthians 6 ("The body is not for sexual immorality, but for the Lord.") C.S. Lewis quote: "Friendship is born at that moment when one person says to another, 'What! You too? I thought I was the only one.'"

Friendships play a powerful role in a child's emotional well-being, but navigating conflict, exclusion, and changing relationships isn't always easy. In this episode, Chad and Nikki explore how friendship struggles can impact children's mental health, discuss when parents should step in (and when they shouldn't), and share practical ways to help kids build resilience, strengthen healthy relationships, and feel supported through life's inevitable ups and downs.

Coming to you from Whidbey Island, Washington this is Stories From Women Who Walk with Wednesdays on Whidbey & your host, Diane Wyzga. I'm often asked: “What brought you to Whidbey Island?” It's a standard ice breaker question here. My cheeky response is: A ferry brought me; ferries being a mode of transportation among the Washington islands. Many folks come here, vacation, fall in love, and return to claim their spot. Not me. It wasn't love at first sight. In truth, I washed up on the shores of Whidbey Island. My relationship with this place is more like an arranged marriage than falling-head-over-heels in love. An arranged marriage flips the traditional hook-up, dating, live together, get married sequence. Matchmakers introduce the partners, a wedding occurs, and love and intimacy are expected to develop afterward during marriage. While Hollywood movies often frame relationships around immediate romance, arranged marriages rely on a partnership built on shared foundations where emotional bonds grow over time. It's a pragmatic mindset requiring work and compromise that helps offset early disillusionment when one person's habits rub up against the other's expectations.     Unlike the traditional scenario where attraction might peak during a “honeymoon phase” the gradual growth of friendship, love, and meeting milestones together sets up a long-term companionship supported by those strong ties.   Just like our marriages, traditional or arranged, the place we live shapes our identities, behaviors, and well-being. Places we live—like the tides— direct our attention, movement, social interactions, personal growth and development. The community molds our sense of culture, belonging, what is normal, expected, possible and accepted. In ways large and small place fundamentally influences our daily routines, opportunities, and personality. After almost a decade in this semi-rural place, with all the highs and lows that come with starting anew in unfamiliar surroundings how have I come to love thee, Whidbey? Let me count the ways.   There's the cool Pacific Northwest climate, the landscape of old growth forests, farms and farmer's markets, abundant wildlife (sometimes too abundant in the garden), a slower pace because of narrow, winding 2-lane roads and reduced speed limits, the November to May Rain Festival that turns our attention and activities quietly inward. Ours is a deliberate lifestyle. We don't have malls or the hustle and bustle of city streets, or easy access to stuff one can get over in AmeriKa. Of course, that means we rely on ourselves and each other, especially when the power goes out and the hum of generators fills the night sky. Ours is a deceivingly robust community of varied social fabrics, politics, spirituality, intellects and economics. We support writers, artists, hikers, fisherfolk, entrepreneurs, farmers, poets, seniors, educators, and volunteers. Every meeting and gathering comes with a potluck. Yes, it can take time to find your people in a tight-knit rural place, but it's also a matter of stepping out the door, inviting people to share your front porch, building connections, building trust, learning tolerance for others. By and large people on Whidbey are friendly, welcoming, smart, clever, willing to shed big city ways to make room for patience. Maybe even understanding because we do not see all things the same way.   Ours hosts a plethora of outdoor spaces, free public transport, and the most wonderful library system that is the hub of our social connectedness. Sure the prices are higher than most, we do struggle to make ends meet, healthcare service could be better, and ferry schedule might be sketchy at times; but I knew I belonged when people greeted me by name in the grocery store or ACE Hardware or I was invited to begin teaching story courses for adults. Don't get me wrong. Whidbey Island is not unlike your community. It's not all rainbows and rhubarb pie here. We have our share of folks who behave like dumbshits. But for every person who behaves like a dumbshit there's a dozen who are truly kind and decent. That's the bit to remember because despite the ups and downs a time must come when you agree with yourself to set aside feelings of uncertainty, venture out, expand your horizons, engage with your new found community. As an introvert's introvert the idea of making a coffee date was not in my toolkit; but once I did step out it became easier and I learned that others were just waiting to be invited. This place called Whidbey Island is the place I live; even more important are the people I'm still coming to know who are shaping who I am. “But now that I am in love with a place that doesn't care how I look and if I am happy, happy is how I look and that's all.” *** Question: What is it about the place you live that has charmed and shaped you? *** Weathering ~  by Fleur Adcock "My face catches the wind from the snow line and flushes with a flush that will never wholly settle. Well, that was a metropolitan vanity, wanting to look young forever, to pass. I was never a pre-Raphaelite beauty and only pretty enough to be seen with a man who wanted to be seen with a passable woman. But now that I am in love with a place that doesn't care how I look and if I am happy, happy is how I look and that's all. My hair will grow grey in any case, my nails chip and flake, my waist thicken, and the years work all their usual changes. If my face is to be weather beaten as well, it's little enough lost for a year among the lakes and vales where simply to look out my window at the high pass makes me indifferent to mirrors and to what my soul may wear over its new complexion."

Friendships are where kids practice being human, but social anxiety, screens, group dynamics, and “rollercoaster” relationships are making connection harder than ever. Sissy and David offer practical ways parents can help kids recognize healthy friendships, develop realistic expectations, practice conversation and initiation, understand reciprocity, set kind boundaries, and navigate awkward moments. Rather than managing every relationship, parents can coach kids to find good friends, have a “good picker,” and become the kind of friend they hope to have.

Friendship is something so many of us long for, yet it can feel harder than ever to build as adults. Between busy schedules, social media, past hurts, and the fear of putting ourselves out there, it's easy to believe that deep, meaningful friendships just aren't possible anymore.  Today, I'm joined by my longtime friend and mentor, Crystal Paine, for an honest conversation about why friendship matters so much, and why it's one of the most important cornerstones of a happy, purposeful life. Crystal vulnerably shares her own journey through loneliness, friendship breakups, insecurity, and learning to build healthier relationships rooted in authenticity instead of approval. Together, we talk about healing after friendship wounds, recognizing unhealthy expectations, learning to ask for help, embracing vulnerability, and why community isn't something that simply happens, it's something we intentionally create through small, consistent actions.  We also share practical, approachable ways to cultivate deeper friendships, whether that's being the first to reach out, asking better questions, remembering the little things that matter to people, or simply sending a text to let someone know they're on your mind. If you've ever felt lonely, struggled to find your people, or wondered if it's worth trying again after being hurt, I hope this conversation reminds you that meaningful friendships are still possible.  Sometimes all it takes is one tiny tweak, one courageous invitation, or one small act of vulnerability to begin building the kind of community your heart has been longing for.

The new play "Disruption" follows a Silicon Valley engineer who presents his three best friends with a new AI algorithm that he claims can make all of their life decisions for them. But at what cost? Playwright Andrew Stein discusses the play, alongside actors John David Washington and Conrad Ricamora. "Disruption" is running at Pershing Square Signature Center through Sept. 27th.

In this episode, we continue our book study on Friendship in the Lord and reflect on how loving appreciation and reconciliation are the places where friendship matures. We talk about why healthy adult friendships draw us closer to the Lord, how the unique gifts of women and men reveal different facets of God's love, and how learning to behold another's beauty without trying to grasp or possess it calls forth our true identity. We also discuss the importance of recognizing how we've hurt others, expressing sincere sorrow, and allowing others to do the same. As we bring our wounds, suffering, and sin into the love of Christ, we discover that the very places we fear most can become the biggest places of resurrection.   Other Resources Mentioned: Restore the Glory Podcast on Confession (Parts 1-3) S18 Forgiveness Meditation (with questions from the book Forgiving as Unity with Christ)  S11 Forgiveness Meditation with Sister Miriam   Announcement: You can buy your copy of Friendship in the Lord from Ave Maria Press (or Amazon).   Journal Questions: Am I maturing as a friend? What does the Holy Spirit want to teach me through my friendships? Am I currently experiencing conflict or frustration in a relationship? What is the pain or trigger I feel beneath the conflict? Can I receive the gift of beauty without trying to grasp or possess it? How have I failed to uphold the dignity of my friends? Am I experiencing the fullness of who I am? What parts of myself am I hiding from my relationships?   Discussion Questions: When have you experienced your own uniqueness in a friendship? Did you experience your uniqueness as a gift to give or as an insecurity to hide? How is the Lord inviting you to more freely receive your friends rather than possessing them? How have you participated in belittling or sarcasm in your relationships? How have you participated in or been on the receiving end of judgment within friendships? Where does the Lord want to love you into a place of freedom?   Quote to Ponder: "The intimacy of adult friendship in the Spirit can teach us to aspire to the fullest possible intimacy with the Lord himself. The tenderness of one friend toward another is the image of God's own tenderness, when the friends truly love each other in the Spirit." (Friendship in the Lord, Page 62) Scripture for Lectio: "Therefore as God's chosen people, holy and dearly beloved, clothe yourselves with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience. Bear with each other and forgive one another if any of you has a grievance against someone. Forgive as the Lord forgave you. And over all these virtues, put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity."
