Today I'm joined by Christine Loera, a Story Producer on an infamous (and for the purposes of our interview, anonymous) reality dating show to discuss dating on-screen vs. IRL. We dissect the persona and the traits that correlate to success on reality TV, and contemplate the feasibility of falling in love over the span of a few weeks. Christine opens up about how her job has impacted her own dating life for the positive (by providing an unexpected opening to come out to her parents) and the negative (through setting unrealistic expectations for relationship progress).

We'll ask one reporter if we're past the point of no return when it comes to going back IRL.

We talked to one expert about how to make the ask.  Finally: Sundance Film Festival starts this week — and this year, you don't have to go in person to watch some of indie cinema's hottest new offerings. We'll ask the festival's director why making Sundance accessible is so important to the world of movie-making. P.S.

Emma hosts Kyla Schuller, Assistant Professor of Women's and Gender Studies at Rutgers University, to discuss her recent book The Trouble With White Women: A Counterhistory of Feminism, on how mainstream feminism has been a project of theft disguised as liberation. Professor Schuller and Emma situate white feminism as one that isolates a specific element of misogyny while leaning into many forms of structural oppression, from racism to classism to transphobia. The first contrast Kyla Schuller brings to our attention is that between the feminism of Elizabeth Cady Stanton, co-author of the quintessential “History of Women's Suffrage,” with Susan B. Anthony, and that of Frances E.W. Harper, who used the income from her poetry to fund the Underground Railroad and paint women's rights as a movement to promote Black folks' land rights, liberty, and literacy. Despite writing what is viewed as the quintessential “first wave” feminist text, Stanton's and Anthony's feminism was actively based on beliefs that Black suffrage could not take precedence over women, leaving Harper's beliefs entirely out of their project, while appropriating and editing the works of Black women such as Sojourner Truth to fit their own narratives. Using this as a blueprint for the differences between “white” and intersectional feminisms, Schuller then looks to the appropriation of the story of escaped slave Harriet Jacobs by Harriet Beecher Stowe for her work “Uncle Tom's Cabin,” and how this reflected Stowe's feelings of the white woman's role in protecting, teaching, and civilizing women of color, as further represented by her ultimate acquisition of the largest orange plantation in Florida, as a place to experiment with disciplining and civilizing the formerly enslaved. She and Emma also touch on the stories of Margaret Sanger and Dorothy Ferebee as an important contrast in the development of reproductive choice, versus reproductive justice, before touching on the takedown of Sandy Stone from the lesbian music collective “Olivia Records” by anti-Trans activist Janice Raymond. They wrap up the interview by touching on the concept that the universal female experience that TERFs ground their oppression in simply doesn't exist, and look at Sheryl Sandberg's “lean in” feminism versus AOC's coalition feminism. Emma also looks at Biden's decision to break up BBB, hoping to at least get some moderates on board if he's going to lose the faith of the rest of his base. And in the Fun Half: Brandon and Matt join Emma as they take on MLK NFTs but like IRL, exploring the commodification of the Civil Rights Movement, and crypto bros' inability to grapple with artists having the rights over their work. Warren from Toronto calls in to explore Jordan Peterson's brief prevalence in Canadian academia, and how that all fell apart well before his retirement, Candace Owens and Tucker Carlson take on the threat of “NGOs,” (totally different than corporations, they swear), and the crew explores how Jordan Peterson's self-help work targeted people who were looking for meaning in their life, and what the left can learn from it.

This week on Anime Pulse we got no large McDonald's french fries, a dormitory for shota lovers, and New Years anime. Up first is the IRL news as Joseph talks about his time thus far with Pokemon Shield, and Andrew would like to know if any community members out there know of any good new years anime. Then in the industry news we get a Andrew sandwich, with topics like the possibility of a Netflix produced Scott Pilgrim anime and the downfall of Pachinko. Lastly are the reviews as Joseph is taken in by some very wholesome, buxom, not at all Shotacons and Andrew builds some anatomically correct GunPla.

In this week's episode, two veteran community builders, Tony Bacigalupo and Jillian Benbow, share their insights and practical tips for connecting with others and creating community, both IRL and online. We discuss a range of community-related topics, including:  The focus and goals of Tony's and Jillian's new podcast called "The Community Experience", which is part of SPI Media from Pat Flynn   As community-building experts, what attracts Tony and Jill to this type of work   The show's emphasis on connection and the value of connectedness and why feelings of connection are so important   The difference between community and "audience"   One thing listeners can do to make the sometimes awkward experience of communicating with a new person - at a conference, before a meeting, at work - less uncomfortable situation, so the next time you're in a place with lots of new faces (maybe even in gallery view), you're better at reaching out   Resources mentioned in the episode:   SPI Community Experience Podcast SPI Pro

Should I let them go or keep fighting?  How did Alyssa learn to navigate the online world of dating when she found herself single and in unchartered waters at 41? What are the differences Alyssa sees in working with clients ages 40 and up vs. millennials and GenZ in terms of how they view online dating?  Want to get your profile styled?

In this healthcare podcast, I'm talking about direct contracting IRL (in real life) with Katy Talento. This is a conversation that's more about the reality of direct contracting than the theory of direct contracting, and this was not an accident. So much of healthcare transformation is really easy to say and much harder to actually do. So … direct contracting. In the context we discuss in this episode, generally direct contracting means when an employer or their benefits consultant, more likely, hooks up with a provider organization, lots of times a hospital or a health system. Moving forward here, I'm just gonna say employer when I sort of really mean the employer and their TPA and their repricer, the constellation of consultants and other vendors that are working with the employer. So, just for simplicity, the employer says to the provider organization, “Hey, let's cut out the middleman here” (middleman likely being some insurance carrier). “I will just pay you directly, and it will be a win-win because no one is sucking out up to 15% to 20% right out of the middle, and also I'll steer my employees/patients/members your direction, which is great for us as a self-insured plan because money saved and also because I've done some quality analytics and I think you're relatively good at delivering care … so I'm happy to help my members find you.” The employer will, in general broad strokes, pay the provider organization some percentage over the Medicare rate for procedures or codes or bundles. By the way, the dollar amount over Medicare for the bundles or procedures or codes can vary depending on factors like what service line it is because, unlike RBP (reference-based pricing), direct contracting is a negotiation. It's a two-way deal. RBP, a lot of times, is the payer/employer deciding what they're gonna pay and then paying it—without sitting around a table with the provider figuring all this out together. So, if only from this one dimension, direct contracting is something that you'd think that hospitals/health systems/providers would be kind of into and up for. One thing that I didn't really understand before this conversation is that, if we're talking about an employer direct contracting with, say, a hospital, the list of direct-contracted procedures or codes or bundles might include pretty much all of the services that the hospital can perform; but, in general, the employer is only going to steer members there or make it financially attractive to go to the hospital for, for example, emergency or unavoidable procedures. Why? Because no employer wants patients going to the hospital for things that they could get a whole lot cheaper in an outpatient setting with no less quality. So, unless a hospital is willing to compete on price with other care settings, then an employer is not going to steer their members there. If you're a hospital, you might take this as a con. But, on the other hand, consider that if there's a few hospitals in the area, the general direction will be to go to the one with the direct contract. Furthermore, if a plan is gonna steer members, they're gonna steer them whether they have a direct contract with you or not. Katy makes one point early and often throughout this conversation. From a hospital perspective, doing a direct contract is and should be pretty easy. From an employer perspective, too, there should not be a lot of disruption or friction for employees. There doesn't need to be. Done right, it should be a win-win for the employer, provider, and, most of all, the patient who doesn't get stuck with high bills, balance bills, and lower-quality care than might be available to them through their benefits. Katy goes through the steps to create a direct contract and the challenges she has faced along the way. We also get into the wonderful world of payviders, so you could consider this an extension to the episode with Jeb Dunkelberger (EP348) from last month. My guest today, Katy Talento, started out as an infectious disease epidemiologist (which I did not realize). She ended up doing public health policy. She's worked on Capitol Hill for various senators and, in the last administration, as health policy lead. Katy is the CEO of AllBetter Health and works with the Health Rosetta organization. She is a benefits advisor for employers who are looking to create better health plans that reduce costs dramatically while, at the same time, improving benefits. I mean, you can only do that in healthcare, right?—where there's basically no relationship between price and quality. You can learn more at allbetter.health or contact Katy directly at katy@allbetter.health. Katy Talento is an infectious disease epidemiologist, a veteran health policy advisor, and healthcare consultant. She is CEO of AllBetter Health, an insurgent benefits advisory firm building innovative health plans for employers that are free of misaligned financial incentives.

This week on Anime Pulse we got going back in time to take a new career path, Rumiko Takahashi is making a return in 2022, and the best and worst of 2021. First up is the IRL news with Joseph and Andrew celebrating the new year, talking about their top topics for best and worst anime of 2021. Then in the industry news Andrew takes it away with news of a return of the very first Rumiko work, and the website 5Chan inputs their top 10 anime of 2021. Finally in the first reviews of the new year Joseph awakens to find he has groundhoged himself right after he graduated High School, and yakuza Andrew gets hit on the head by a powerful girl falling from the sky and ends up as her caretaker.

Raise your hand if you had to learn how to date virtually via Zoom/FaceTime because of the pandemic! In this episode, we interrogate... err, interview... Angela's good friend Michael about what his experience was like dating over Zoom during the height of the pandemic, and how that compared with "real" (IRL) dating. We can all imagine the drawbacks that virtual dating can create, but tune in to hear some surprisingly positive outcomes Michael got out of being forced to date in this strange new manner! If you wait til the end, you'll also get to hear him recount his most standout/horrible Zoom date. Trust us, it's hilarious and worth it! P.S. If you're based in the LA area and think Michael is cute based on his voice (or if you watched the video episode on YouTube), he is still single so hit us up if you're looking for a Zoom date ;)

- Call in at 865-268-4005 to leave your question or visit the Krypt at https://kuldrinskrypt.com. - Two weeks ago we talked about when you should not participate in BDSM play and in this week's episode of The Krypt we are going to keep with that theme because I found something from Spain that I have to share with as a BDSM nightmare and a huge warning to those of you that love to randomly meet people in person that you have met online.- Rules to Love By: ( https://inclusionwoodworks.com )1: Safe, sane, consensual, and informed2: KNKI: Knowledge, No Intolerance, Kindness, Integrity3: “Submission is not about authority and it's not about obedience; it is all about relationships of love and respect.” -Wm. Paul Young-  “IRL Hooking up with online players: BDSM Nightmare-S03E38-S03E38”“Group Arrested For Torturing, Blackmailing Man With Learning Disability” by Brian Yalung, Mar 11, 2021https://www.latintimes.com/group-arrested-torturing-blackmailing-man-learning-disability-466718“Seven people who allegedly tortured a mentally unstable man in Spain have been arrested. Four women and three men reportedly glued the lips of the man and forced him to go to the supermarket dressed as a woman. However, that was not the worst part of it. The man, who had a learning disability and wanted to get an extreme makeover, also ended up with tattooed penises on his face. His eyebrows were also shaved while his toes were sewed. The despicable act all started when a man offered to pay anyone online to help him get that makeover.At some point, the man, whose identity remains unknown, was able to escape when he told the kidnappers that he needed to go to a cashpoint so that he could pay his captors off. The kidnappers agreed and the victim immediately ran to the police. He has been receiving death threats since doing so.It appears all of it stemmed from an online contest which the man organized online. The contest was based on a sexual role-play game where he could pay anyone to help him change his appearance using transvestism and light BDSM.There were some who the man-made to sign a contract that was titled “Change of Look.” But it was the group that eventually got chosen and headed to the property in Manacor after meeting up in a city center square in the Majorcan capital Palma called Plaza de Espana.The victim is reportedly in his 30s and videos show some of the ordeals. That included the man saying that he needed to untie himself in a minute or his eyebrows would be shaved off.The suspects were reportedly aged between 20 to 30 and were arrested over the torture they did on the man. A mother of one of the suspects has also been called for questioning since the episode took place at her home. She is, however, not among the ones arrested.“We have taken a statement from the victim and what he's said is that he made it clear ahead of the contest he didn't want extreme violence or sex,” Alejandro Becerra, a spokesman for Spain's National Police in Majorca said. “The effects of the treatment meted out to him are serious because he'll have to have treatment to remove the tattoos for example.”How to avoid things like this:Common sense: If things don't make sense then run.If you don't understand then run.Never forget, “there's nothing common about common sense.” However, if we make it a point to stop, take a breath, and push the pause button for a few seconds, we can allow ourselves the opportunity to experience a lightbulb moment. Do your homework:Risk Aware Consensual Kink: While it isn't a person's responsibility or fault they were abused or raped, it is our responsibility to educate ourselves to try to prevent it. Obviously, there are terrible people out there that are excellent at pretending to be good. Unfortunately, it is impossible to protect ourselves from all of these people. However, we can help our odds with the power of knowledge.Safe calls:Set up times to CALL someone and have codewords in place. Never share the scheduled times of the calls or the codewords with the date! It amazes me how often this happens. Use the Find a Friend appStick to the plans for the evening. They know they have you when they are able to get you to change the plans. Do not trust vetting! I used to preach vetting like it was a religion until I admitted the truth to myself. Vetting on an actual abuser only works about 25% of the time and the reason is simple: abuse and rape victims often:-Blame themselves so they don't share it.-Feel ashamed so they don't share it.-Are traumatized and don't remember it.-Pretend it didn't happen and avoid it at nearly all costs.-It has also been proven that a very small number of victims of assault/abuse will intentionally talk up their abuser to someone who they view is strong enough to be able to bring down the abusive person. They become so focused on the abuser being caught they will send an unknowing “warrior” straight into the lion's den with no knowledge whatsoever and expect them to come out victorious because the victim has put them on a pedestal and views them as “such a strong person”. It's important to mention that the people that do this fully believe the strong person will not be hurt.Do not lose sight of being an adult!I have heard over and over “I'm a sub. It's what I do. When they told me that I was going to the thing, I did the thing.” Being submissive does not mean that you don't have a backbone and it doesn't mean that you have an excuse to make you free of all decisions. Especially when there isn't an established dynamic in place.Don't forget BDSM is popular!Before there were 12 million people on FetLife, it was hard to find a group of people or a play partner. That reeeally sucked but now that it's become part of pop culture it is has become a cesspool of freaks, fakes, phoneys, and fuckups. It used to be that one in five people would have a hard limit violated in the first three years of entering the scene. I fully believe that it has grown to 50%. While I also believe a large percentage of that increase is accidental, it doesn't excuse the lack of education and training people are choosing over playing safe. Important Links:Full show notes: https://kuldrinskrypt.com/338National Suicide Hotline: 1-800-273-8255https://KuldrinsKrypt.com/Patreon https://kuldrinskrypt.com/silentcommunication https://KuldrinsKrypt.com/survey https://kuldrinskrypt.com/TeePublic Show Producers:- Benefactor ($2,000/month): - Pro Producer ($100/month): Buffalo_Max92- Master Producer ($50/month): - Executive Producer ($25/month) ShadowyFox, JunicornsAngel, Johnny Ferrell, Haru Webb, Rei Webb, slave Brendan, and Just_Call_Me_Ash- Sr. Producers ($10/month): xEmeraldxWolfx, ThatPlace: Oklahoma City, RoxieBear, Trouble113, Alexandria, babylove&Sir, SortOutTheKinks, Master Gabriel, Daddy Steve, Sir Pent, KJ, TwistedTink&JustTommy, ArtKitten, AuthorMistressBlackrose, UpstateScCouple, Crystal Force, CJ, Cali, PerfectlyThick, Thorn, Toredon, Cap'n J, BxB, Saviy, Lilred rose, and AK Rich- Producers ($5/month): Kainsin, CIVLdisobedience, Hadea, Lily, Sir&Kitten, Raven, Raider69time, Atsila, MBRpoodle, LylacWine, Baddogbad, CozyCow, Arctic Foxglove,  Anomalous Mats, MsRedSin & AJRJ, Katnipmeow, WyldThyme&Deacon Sean, CheeryQuery, Ropestuff2, Rabbit, BurningRedHot, Sir Wolf ArchAngel, Subx13, CourtsDom, Anthony, Gator, Gizmo, Ataleena, JJ, and Jon Shaw- Jr. Producers ($1/month): K-2SO, Jeremiah, Morgana13, Brodie, The Gabbing Girl Time Podcast, and LexaBecome a show producer: https://KuldrinsKrypt.com/PatreonVendors I know, like, trust, and use: (None of these are paid sponsors of the podcast.)- http://bdsmcontracts.org Coupon code: kuldrin20 for a 20% discount on all purchases.- http://whippingstripes.com - My personal maker of most things leather and paracord impact toys.- https://www.etsy.com/shop/TorridTimber - Fine fetish furniture and accessories- https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheCraftyHedonist - Dark Delights Shops: https://darkdelightsshop.com/ (Watch my product review of them: https://kuldrinskrypt.com/DarkDelightsShop)Contact info:Email: MasterKuldrin@gmail.comFetlife Group: https://fetlife.com/groups/159275Twitter: @MasterKuldrin https://twitter.com/MasterKuldrinPatreon: kuldrinskrypt https://www.patreon.com/KuldrinsKrypthttp://kuldrinskrypt.com/contactresource

This week, Ben throws a Christmas-load worth of shade on influencers and influencer culture, and lumps them into two categories, pretty or funny, and these aren't necessarily compliments. He talks about times he's met some of the meanest people are also some of the prettiest people, and that usually leads to them becoming influencers. Ben also touches on how some online beef has moved into IRL and parasocial relationships, which are relationships that are completely one-sided and how it relates to the toxic influencer enviornment. Plus, Ben reveals which online personalities he basically stalked. Don't fall for subscription scams.

We often think it takes big behavioral changes to impact our mental health, but according to psych research simple daily habits and choices make a huge difference on our emotional well-being. In this “best of the podcast” episode, we discuss two simple practices anyone can implement at any time to enjoy a boost in mood. Specifically, we discuss: The connection between social media usage and depression and anxiety. The fact that social media interactions don't provide us with the same support IRL interactions do. The variable at work in “Facebook Depression.” A concrete plan for creating a gratitude practice and why it makes all the difference! It's completely normal to feel a wide array of emotions—that's part of being a human. But, help is here! Join us to learn simple, practical research-based strategies we can all utilize to level up our mental health and wellness. Reference: Steers, M. N., Wickham, R. E., & Acitelli, L. K. (2014).
