We are truly on the home stretch now--folding up the frame story around Odysseus' adventures, we can see there are three women that walk beside him on his way back to Ithaca. Each of them, in her own way, must love him without holding on to him, as he goes through the painful process of recovering who he is after all the accretions of war and wandering have been stripped away. It's an epic drama but also, in some deeply essential way, the story of all of us.

Paradise Regained.by senorlongo. Listen to the ► Podcast at Connected.Chapter 7.MP and I had a long discussion one day about “fucking” and “making love.” I explained to her that animals can fuck but they can't make love. Who do you think about when we're having sex?”“You, Jeremy,” she answered.“Right, and I'm always thinking about you. That's why we make love instead of just fucking, understand?” MP just responded by kissing me, even though her father was only thirty feet away.Earlier in the year construction had begun on a house at the end of the street. It was ready for occupancy by the last week in August. One day we saw a moving van as the family moved in. Besides the parents there was a little girl I guessed to be about ten and her older brother who looked to be our age. He identified himself as Ronny Young. He told us how he had been Homecoming King, an “A” student, and a star halfback in his previous school and he was looking forward to starring for the Tigers, our high school team. He went on and on about himself and I could tell it was nothing but lies. However, all the girls, including MP were really impressed. Ronny was also bigger than me; taller, heavier and more muscular; and probably more handsome, at least a lot of the girls thought so. Ronny also had a car, a recent model Mustang convertible that his father let him drive even though he wasn't old enough to have what was known in our state as a “senior license.”What bothered me was that Ronny was the type of guy who only wanted what belonged to someone else. In my case it was MP and he really put the moves on her; compliments, little gifts, rides in the car. He was showing her a great time. I could see only trouble ahead but I knew if I said anything to MP she would accuse me of sour grapes or jealousy. I spoke to my mom about it and she agreed that there was nothing I could do but let nature take its course. I knew this son-of-a bitch was going to hurt MP and when he did I was going to take care of him; good.In mid-September of our senior year I was walking home from school with MP when I asked her if her parents were going out over the weekend. She turned to me, “Yes, but I've been invited to Ronny's.” When she saw the look of concern in my face she continued, “Don't worry, we're just going to watch a movie. Nothing's going to happen. I promise I won't even kiss him, and I'm definitely not going to fuck him.” She leaned in for a kiss but I had already turned away toward my house. I didn't see MP at all over the weekend and, on Monday she was waiting for me at my door.I asked her how things went with Ronny. “Just like I told you. He was a perfect gentleman; no kissing and definitely no fucking.” She held her hand out to me. I put mine in my pockets. She had forgotten what I had told her. I knew she was lying. I turned and walked to school, tears in my eyes.Chapter 8.Of course, Ronny moved right in, taking my place just as he had planned all along. MP now rode to and from school with him instead of walking with Ted, Josh, and me, although she didn't seem so happy. It was the blackest time of my life. I sat alone in the cafeteria and when other people joined me I was still alone. When I got home I'd cry for an hour, partly because it was over between MP and me, but also because I knew she was going to be hurt by this asshole.As it turned out I didn't have to wait long. Instead of telling her he was dumping her she walked to his car one afternoon at the close of school finding her place in the front seat occupied by some bimbo blonde. Worse, Ronny laughed at her, calling her “pathetic” and “loser” as he drove away. MP cried all the way home.I was home deep in despair when the phone rang. My mom answered it and called me to the living room. “Jeremy, you need to go over and see MP. That Ronny just dumped her and she needs some support.”“But, Mom, she broke my heart. I can't! I just can't!”“Jeremy, she made a mistake and, yes, it did hurt you, but she has been your friend for years and right now she needs you. Just as important, you need to do this for yourself. Go.” There's no real purpose in arguing with my mother. I dragged myself to MP's house. I hadn't been there for more than a month so I knocked on the door instead of just walking in as I had done before. Mrs. O'Brien answered the door. “Thank you for coming, Jeremy. I tried to warn her about this boy, but she just wouldn't listen. She's in her room.” I nodded and walked hesitantly to see her.I opened the door to find MP lying on the bed face down, crying her eyes out. I sat on the bed putting my hand on her shoulder. I didn't say a word. MP looked up and cried even harder. I pulled her up, put my arms around her and pushed her head down to my chest. She tried to speak between sobs. “Oh; Jeremy; I should; have listened; to…my; mother. I'm so sorry. I know I hurt you. I'm so; sorry.”“You forgot something I told you when you learned I was a wizard, MP. I told you I could always tell when someone was lying. Ronny said he was an “A” student; lie; homecoming king; lie; star athlete; lie. The only things he said that weren't lies were when he said you were beautiful. That was the truth.” I paused to give MP my hankie so she could blow her nose. I continued when she had finished. “I knew you were lying when you told me that nothing had happened between you and Ronny. Have you looked at your locket lately? Open it now.”She looked at me questioningly but pulled it over her head. When she opened it the heart was in a million pieces. “That's what you did to my heart. What you're going through isn't even one-tenth what I've had to endure.” Now MP really started to cry. I closed the locket and put it back over her head.“Oh, Jeremy, can you ever forgive me?” She fell to her knees, clasping her hands as if in prayer. “Please, Jeremy, can't we just go back to the way things were?”“Tell me what happened that night, MP. I need to know what happened. I'll explain why later.”She started slowly. “I knocked on the door. He opened it and showed me to his room. There was nobody else at home; that made me nervous. He began with a lot of compliments about how pretty and sexy I was. Stupid me, I believed him. When he tried to kiss me I thought, ‘What's the big deal, it's only one kiss’. Well, one led to another and then I couldn't stop him. He pulled my blouse off and mauled my tits. You know I like it rough, but this was too much. He pushed himself between my legs and fucked me. It was over in about thirty seconds and he didn't do anything for me. I felt dirty but I wanted to believe that I was a girl he really wanted. He did it again before I left. I'm sorry I lied to you, Jeremy. I was afraid to tell you the truth. Then he started again with his compliments and everything and he was so sweet in front of the other kids that I thought maybe I was wrong. But I wasn't. He embarrassed me in front of a whole group of kids. I was mortified. What am I going to do?”“You're going on with life just as I have for the last month. The difference is that I lost someone I truly loved; you only lost some of your dignity.”“Jeremy, can't we go back to the way we were; boyfriend and girlfriend?”“I don't know, MP, I'll always be your friend, but I don't know if I can be your boyfriend again.” I got up and left. When I got home Mom knew it hadn't gone well. She didn't have to be a witch to read the expression on my face.“What are you going to do, Jeremy?“I don't know yet, Mom, but I can tell you this; he's going to suffer for what he's done to MP and me. The only difference is that he's going to suffer more; much, much more.“Jeremy!”“Don't Mom. This is something he deserves. He's a predator who takes advantage of innocent people to feed his ego. When I finish with him he'll be lucky to have any ego left.” I turned and climbed the stairs to my room.Chapter 9.I sat at my desk and made a list. All the things that fed his ego were going to be destroyed. I just wanted to be sure I didn't hurt anyone else in the process of destroying him. Oh, I could have electrocuted or burned him alive or even boiled him in oil, but I wanted him to suffer the humiliation MP and I had experienced at his hand. I would start early tomorrow morning.We always have a police officer in front of our school to help kids and parents cross the road. He parks his car just before the crossing zone. I got up a half hour early so I could get there before Ronny drove up. When I saw him a quick spell gave me control of the car. I sped up, exceeding the speed limit by almost forty miles per hour and turned the car forcing a collision with the parked police car. The cop was really pissed and when he smelled Ronny's breath Ronny would be in real trouble; driving without a license, DUI, damage to a city vehicle, and a kilo of pot in the glove compartment. All in all, a good start to a wonderful day.The next day, after being bailed out of jail, Ronny was walking to school like the rest of us. He tried to hold MP's hand, but she refused, preferring to stay by me. She didn't try to hold hands but she was next to me and that was a big improvement. As we walked I invoked my second spell. By the time we reached the school his face and hands were covered in bloody pus-filled boils; so much for his good looks. No medical treatment was going to cure this ailment!The following day while walking to school I had yet another idea. I whispered another simple spell. By the time we got to school his hair was falling out in clumps. He looked like a patchwork quilt. Then I had another idea. From then on every other word out of his mouth was going to be “Fuck.” I knew he was studying for an oral report he was due to give in English class today so this was going to be extremely interesting.He stood before the class, boils, hair clumps, and all ready for his speech. “I fuck read fuck the fuck book fuck The fuck Old fuck Man fuck and fuck the fuck Sea.” The principal was called; Ronny was suspended; so far, so good. At lunch MP came to sit with me, something she had not done since we had split.“Jeremy, I know you're doing all this stuff to Ronny and I don't blame you, but I hope he doesn't find out. He's awfully strong and he can be really mean.”Actually, that gave me another idea. “MP, I want you to tell him I'm behind all his troubles. Tell him you don't know how but you know I'm behind it.”“But, Jeremy, he'll try to hurt you. I know he's furious about everything that's happened. He'll kill you.”“Oh, he'll try, MP, but he won't hurt me. You know that. That will be almost the final humiliation; getting beaten by a nerd like me. Then I'll be ready for the final part of my plan. Don't say ‘no' MP. You know I can make you if I want to. Just do it. You can call him after school.” MP wasn't too happy, but she did it. Then she called me to let me know Ronny was going to kill me. Well, we all know he is going to try, don't we?I got up extra early so he'd find me at school where there'd be plenty of witnesses, including the cop at the crosswalk when he assaulted me and still got his ass kicked. Sure enough, about five minutes before the bell was to ring he drove up in his badly dented Mustang. Screaming at the top of his lungs he challenged me. I turned around and waved him on. He came with a tire iron. Even better, I thought; assault with a deadly weapon. I put a spell on the cop forcing him to wait until I summoned him. Now I was ready.Ronny charged up the small hill with blood in his eyes. He reared back and swung, missing me by inches. He swung again and missed again. Over and over, in front of more than a hundred students and teachers, not to mention the cop, he swung at my head just missing every time. As he tired I figured it was time for me to go on the offensive. The next time he approached me I tripped him causing him to fall forward in a heap. I laughed and most of the onlookers joined me. “Here,” I said, “let me help you up.” He growled as the audience howled with laughter. He swung up, hoping to catch me in the groin, but I was too fast for him again. When his arm had passed me I swung out and caught him in his right eye with my fist. “Not only are you a shitty liar,” I shouted, “you're an even shittier fighter.” Again everyone howled.Now Ronny was totally enraged. With his eye closing from the growing bruise he had trouble seeing me. “Gee, Ronny, from what I hear that bruise is a lot bigger than your cock. MP told me she could barely tell you were even fucking her and anyone who could cum as fast as you did with her should certainly be able to catch a slowpoke like me.” I reached out and rapped the other eye, closing it quickly. It looked like he might throw the tire iron so I easily took it away from him. I wanted to hurt Ronny not some innocent bystander. I thought this had gone on long enough so I decked him, first with an uppercut to the gut and finally with a right cross to the jaw.I summoned the cop. “I saw the whole thing. You had the right to defend yourself. He came after you with a deadly weapon, not to mention driving without a license. I just arrested this jerk earlier in the week. He cuffed Ronny, took the iron as evidence and drove him away to the station. Only one more step and I'd be finished.MP rushed up to me afterward, the concern etched on her face. She saw our principal approaching behind me. I was about to be suspended for fighting. The fact that I was obviously defending myself from an unprovoked attack meant nothing. The school had a zero tolerance policy and I was going. MP called her mother and told her she was sick and she would be coming home with me. My mother and I used our telepathy to communicate on the way home. MP laughed, “I'm getting better at this. I'm picking up almost every other word. Maybe I have a future as a witch.” We went home and MP joined me in my room. We didn't have sex; we didn't even kiss but we did talk; a lot.I returned to school the following Monday, knowing that Ronny was due to get bail and that he'd be back to get me. This time he'd find me at the mall, but he'd attack MP, not me. He wouldn't hurt her, I'd see to that but he was going to be put away for a long time. I escorted MP to the mall right after school. We took the public bus; I saw Ronny's car out the back window. We had just entered the mall when Ronny ran in behind her. He pulled her blouse from her body and ripped her bra, bruising her breasts. Ronnie grabbed them, screaming that she was the cause of all his problems. Somehow (magically?) his erect cock became exposed and his movements made it appear that he was trying to rape MP. I ran up behind him, getting him in a headlock. Now, normally that wouldn't have done much good but a spell dropped him unconscious on the floor just as Security and the City Police arrived. There'd be no bail for this, his third offense in less than a week, one that included assault, attempted rape, and public lewdness in addition to the charges he'd built up last week. Even better, he'd be branded a sex offender for the rest of his lying scumbag life.Chapter 10.MP and I were taken to the police station where we gave our statements and pressed charges. The detective told us he had never seen a case like this in his eighteen years on the force. He assured me that, under the circumstances, he'd be amazed if there was any bail, especially inasmuch as his attack on MP violated his existing bail. We even accepted an offer of a ride home in his police car.I walked MP to her door but I couldn't bring myself to kiss her. Instead, I told her what my mother had said to me when we first got involved, “MP, I love you something awful, but I don't know if we should get involved again. You see, I will only be able to marry a witch, assuming, of course, that I ever meet one. If we get back together now; I don't know if I'll be able to end it later. My heart was broken before, but now I feel it's being crushed.” MP began crying but she reached up to kiss my cheek before running into her house.I was home maybe a half hour enjoying a snack when the doorbell rang. When I answered it I recognized the asshole's little sister, Alicia. “Um; I don't think it's such a great idea for you to be here. Things aren't very good between our families just now.”“Oh, don't worry about that. I'm not mad at you, I'm glad. Somebody finally taught my asshole brother a lesson. Know why we moved here? Because Ronny, my father's shining light, did a lot of the same crap where we used to live. Ronny has always been my father's favorite. He couldn't do anything wrong. He always got the best of everything; I always got the leftovers. Now maybe I'll get some attention, although I doubt it. Oh, by the way, we're moving again. Dad hates to be embarrassed.“I do hope things work out for you.” She turned and walked away, a frown on her face. I uttered a spell that would make things better for her. Her dad would notice what a wonderful daughter he had and she'd have no trouble finding someone to love when she got older.About a month later in early November I read in the morning newspaper that Ronny's lawyer had reached a plea agreement with the district attorney. Most of the charges would be dropped in return for pleading guilty to the attempted rape. At most, he'd get ten years which would mean he could be out in five including time already served. A week later I read another story: in a rare move the trial judge, after reading through the case file, denied the plea agreement and ordered Ronny to stand trial on the full array of charges which could, if found guilty, result in between sixty and seventy-five years. I didn't have anything to do with that. Honest!Christmas came and went and in early January we returned to school. I was sitting in homeroom while the teacher droned on about some new student. When I looked up I could feel a shock run through my body. The young woman turned around, our eyes locking on each other. She was incredibly beautiful with wavy red hair that came to her shoulders and emerald green eyes, high prominent cheekbones, and a body to die for. Nobody could blame me for staring. All the other guys were, too. The shock I was experiencing was something I'd only been told about; a mind meld, something that occasionally happened when people of magic met for the first time. The telepathic messages were passing between us at light speed. MP must have picked up some of them because she turned and looked at me obviously confused. This continued until she broke the bond telling the teacher she could find a seat. She walked down the aisle to sit next to me. “Hi, Jeremy,” she sent me telepathically. “Hi, Amanda,” I replied. This time when MP turned around she had a big smile on her face; I had found a witch. I looked at her schedule and found that it paralleled mine with few exceptions. Speaking aloud, I told her, “Your schedule is almost exactly like mine. Would you like me to help you find your way around? I'm Jeremy.”“Thanks, Jeremy, that would be swell. I'm Mandy.” And then telepathically, “great, that will give us plenty of time to talk and get acquainted.” We spent the day together and she even sat with me at lunch. I wasn't surprised when MP joined us. I introduced them, commenting to Mandy that she could speak freely in front of MP. “We used to be an item and she knows all about me.” Mandy wrinkled her eyebrows as if to ask why so I continued. “We were in her room making love when her father interrupted us. I had to freeze him and, of course, I had to explain how I was able to do it.”“I assume you took care of her ability to tell; .”I nodded in reply before continuing, “MP's pretty good at telepathy; s

Shawn Decker is a musician, author and internet pioneer and has commandeered a life driven by creativity and shaped by medical adversity. Diagnosed with HIV at age 11, before the advent of the effective treatments, Shawn's parents were told that he had six months-to-two-years to live. That was in 1987. At age 14, he skipped his exams to meet Depeche Mode through the Make-A-Wish Foundation. He was crowned Homecoming King at Waynesboro High School in Virginia in 1992, and credits his poor attendance record for the win. At age 20, Shawn opened up about living with HIV by posting one of the first online blogs in 1996. After moving from Waynesboro to Charlottesville, Virginia, Shawn fell in love with the local music scene and, most importantly, a fellow HIV educator, Gwenn. Educating together as a sero-diverse couple- where one partner is HIV positive and the other is HIV negative- Shawn and Gwenn have shared their love story with millions of people. And in some very unique ways. From educational programming on the BBC, MTV, VH1 and even Hong Kong TV, to a Bed In in a Grand Central Station storefront on World AIDS Day. Their candor, humor and openness inspired the inclusion of a sero-diverse couple's storyline on the scripted MTV series, Shuga which has educated teenagers and young adults around the world. Shawn has been a contributing writer for Poz Magazine since 1997 and his humorous memoir, My Pet Virus: The True Story of a Rebel Without a Cure, was published by the Penguin Group in 2006. From 1992 until 2022, he wrote and performed music as Synthetic Division, cutting his teeth in the basement of Tokyo Rose restaurant, an iconic Charlottesville music scene. His new band, Nouveau Vintage, makes their debut on March 9 at the Please Don't Tell Album Release party, sharing the stage with Charming Disaster and DJ Cadybug. This Spirit Ball takes place at the Southern Cafe & Music Hall in downtown Charlottesville, VA. In this episode, Shawn talks about his life; the importance of breaking down the stigma and discrimination around HIV; his thoughts on death and living; how music has influenced and supported him through many ups and downs; the song that his mother used to contact him from beyond the grave; words of wisdom; and what lies ahead.

In this episode, we discuss Homecoming King by Penny Reid. Pro-football player Rex is always a boyfriend but never a husband, sending many of his exes into the arms of his teammates. Meanwhile, bartender and crafter Abby had a fairytale love story gone bad, convincing her to give up on love. When Abby's lifelong crush Rex walks into her bar, Abby is suddenly forced to reexamine her views on love. Rex has a proposal that will hopefully help both of them out and Abby agrees in spite of herself. As they spend more time with one another, will Rex take a chance and lower his grumpitudinous walls? Will Abby continue to assume her childhood crush is too good to be true? And what does too good to be true really mean, anyway?

In this episode, we discuss Frost by C.N. Crawford. There is rock bottom, and then there is the layer of crap Ava finds herself in the morning after her worst birthday ever. Involuntarily single and not ready to mingle, she finds herself jobless as well. Cue the handsome Seelie King Torin to rush in, saying words that amount to, “I hate you, so, marry me and I'll give you a bunch of money." Nothing in life is easy, and neither is this staged courtship. Ava must compete against, even sword fight, magic-using princesses to give her a shot at winning Torin's hand. While Torin helps her survive the deadly challenges, undesired feelings develop. Can Torin keep his distance from Ava and save his people? Or will his love for her doom them all? Content warning: Cheating, but not between the couple. Ends on a cliffhanger, but we'll be doing the next book as our first book for the new year!

Hasan Minhaj has had a very busy five years between the release of his first big stand-up special ‘Homecoming King' in 2017 and the premiere of his new hour ‘The King's Jester' on Netflix. The former ‘Daily Show' correspondent roasted Trump in absentia at the White House Correspondents Dinner, launched and ended his weekly Netflix series ‘Patriot Act' and found himself in the crosshairs of the Saudis for his unflinching criticism of Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman. All of it and more form the heart of his new special, which Minhaj discusses at length in this episode. The comedian also opens up about the moment he realized he may have crossed a line with his comedy, reveals an elaborate prank he pitched to Nathan Fielder, addresses the accusations of a toxic work environment at ‘Patriot Act' and a lot more.

Heilemann and Minhaj discuss his early career as a comic and the centrality of his background as a first-generation Indian- and Muslim-American to his work; his breakout stint as a correspondent for The Daily Show and how it shaped his political and social commentary; his 2017 performance at the White House Correspondents dinner and his return to the capital two years later to testify before Congress on the student loan crisis; and the embrace of Homecoming King as a "calling card for a new brown America."
