Send us a textMy guest on the podcast this week is the completely wonderful Bibi Lynch.Bibi is a journalist, writer, broadcaster, podcaster and live event host. She's had columns in GQ, Red, New Woman and Grazia; written for most of the Nationals (currently the Guardian, The Independent, The Times and Metro); presented radio shows and interview series for BBC Radio London, BBC Radio Sussex and Soho Radio; co-hosted metro.co.uk's Good Sex Bad Sex pod and fronted the Let's Get Frank podcast — where she dated people called Frank. As well as her writing and broadcast work, she hosts panels and interviews — at Saatchi, The Hoxton, the Barbican and, with her Dirty Talk series, at the Groucho Club in Soho. She co-wrote Graham Norton's ITV late-nite comedy quiz, Carnal Knowledge; she created WHIPs (Women who are Hot, Intelligent and in their Prime – or Primark if times are tough); and HuffPost voted her one of the ‘50 Funniest Women on Twitter'. #RIP. (She is currently tracking the other 49 down.) She's a World Childless Week ambassador and a Storyhouse Childless contributor. In this conversation, Bibi and I delve into — among other things — the societal stigma associated with singlehood and childlessness, the grief that comes with not having children, the importance of community, reframing the societal narrative, hidden homelessness, and the vitriol that she has received off the back of her writing about childlessness. We also talk about Bibi's exciting future plans, the joy and fulfillment that can be found in embracing life's unexpected paths, and the power of shifting your mindset.04:24 Bibi's Background and Career06:49 The Challenges and Joys of Adult Friendships12:40 Aging and Confidence: WHIPs26:07 The Reality of Being Single and Childless42:05 Facing Grief and Public Scrutiny44:17 Unexpected Hate Mail45:31 Accusations of Misogyny46:38 The Struggles of Being Childless48:48 Hidden Homelessness and Resilience55:34 Finding Stability and Reframing Life57:56 Future Aspirations and Success Redefined01:07:19 Navigating the Dating World01:10:23 Final Thoughts and Words of WisdomFollow Bibi on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/bibilynch/?hl=enCheck out Bibi's website: https://bibilynch.com/Support the showOrder my book, SHINY HAPPY SINGLES (UK) / THRIVE SOLO (US & Canada) at: https://www.lucymeggeson.com/book Download my FREE PDF 'The Top 10 Answers To The Most Irritating Questions That Single People Get Asked On The Regular...& How To (Devilishly) Respond'?

Neil shares the wonderful moments and unexpected connections that come from opening your home to strangers. He recounts stories of past guests who have reached out years later, demonstrating the long-lasting impact of sincere hospitality. Neil takes a look at the idea that hospitality is not just transactional, but also a form of care, gratitude, and meaningful exchange. KEY TAKEAWAYS The core philosophy of successful hosting is believing that the world is full of great, good people, and reciprocation is a lived experience, not just a theory. The goal of a host should be to create an atmosphere where the guest's space becomes their "home from home". This is achieved by treating every guest as a best friend coming to stay. People remember how you make them feel, and those small acts of kindness can lead to meaningful reconnections years later. Gratitude is a powerful force that multiplies when you focus on serving others without expecting anything in return. BEST MOMENTS "The world is full of great, good people, and reciprocity isn't just theory; it's a lived experience." "We do not remember days, we remember moments, and that moment was only made possible by hosting." "These notes of gratitude remind me how important it is for me to help make my guest's journey into their new ventures smoother and easier for them." "Hospitality is not just transactional... it's about care, gratitude, and meaningful exchanges." "There is one thing that babies cry for, and grown men die for, and that's just recognition."

Eventually, Neil transitioned to Corporate Event Team Building, eventually founding his own venture in 1999. Financial challenges in 2017 are what prompted a strategic shift to Airbnb hosting, proving a reliable backup income.

The life of man on earth is warfare against the flesh, the world, and the devil. A secret weapon in this war is offering our joys to the Lord. Joy, which is a uniquely human experience, is available to be offered to God. For in so doing, we recognize that the things in this life that bring us true joy come from God alone and it is to Him that we owe our thanks.

In this episode, Haley and Dustin sit down with Pastor Ryan Walling of Bayshore Baptist Church in La Porte, Texas. Ryan shares how he came to know the Lord as a child and sensed God's call into ministry, but much of our conversation centers around a deeply personal journey—walking through infertility, adoption, and parenting. Ryan and his wife, Jessica, wrestled with years of infertility before deciding to adopt—not just one child, but four siblings from Ethiopia. Shortly after finalizing the adoption, Jessica became pregnant. And then pregnant again. In just 15 months, the Wallings went from zero children to six! Ryan reflects on the joys and challenges of parenting, the whirlwind of raising six kids, and God's faithfulness along the way. Whether you've walked through infertility, considered adoption, or just need encouragement about God's faithfulness, this conversation is a beautiful reminder that God adopts us into His family and delights in us with fatherly joy.

Have you ever wondered what it's like to view the world from the cockpit of an airplane? Or perhaps you're one of the many travelers who experience a tinge of anxiety every time you buckle up for a flight. In today's episode, we unravel these mysteries with insights from a seasoned pilot, Simon Brackett, and learn practical ways to manage in-flight anxiety.Travel can open up new perspectives and enhance the quality of our lives. Traveling can be transformational, however, for many, stepping on an airplane introduces a wave of nervousness, often due to turbulence or unfamiliar sounds during a flight. Understanding the process and realities of flying can ease anxiety, allowing one to fully embrace the adventurous spirit that travel promises.One of the most common fears associated with flying is turbulence. Simon Brackett, a commercial pilot and former Air Force special operations pilot, clarifies that turbulence doesn't mean danger. He compares it to a boat riding over choppy water — uncomfortable but manageable. Simon reassures us that he's never encountered structural damage to an aircraft due to turbulence. He also shares his best tips for staying safe, as well as for managing flight anxiety.Understanding the mechanics and safety of flying, coupled with mindful practices, can vastly improve your travel experience. Embrace these tips and insights next time you embark on your journey, and remember to keep exploring the horizons, grounded in the confidence of a safe flight.We talk about:00:00 Intro00:50 Coping with Flight Anxiety05:36 Understanding Flight Safety11:25 Simon Brackett's Aviation Journey18:43 The Reality of Turbulence25:31 Seatbelt Safety Explained33:44 Overcoming Claustrophobia on Flights34:53 Understanding Flight Delays39:21 Pilot Communication Styles42:38 Traveling with Young Children45:49 Addressing Passenger Concerns50:07 The Joys of Being a Pilot54:20 Travel Tips and Life Lessons01:05:41 Conclusion and Next StepsIn this episode:Episode 43: https://transform-with-travel.captivate.fm/episode/043-how-yoga-and-meditation-can-help-you-become-a-better-traveler-with-justin-liebman Resources & Links:Ready for your next adventure?

We learn to be like Jesus as we invite a group of friends to share our joys and our sorrows.

Sarah is living her best childless life and Susie has a cat with an unfortunate habit. We discuss the wildly disturbing documentary Unknown Number about the high school girl who was bullied by her own mom, the reason the documentary was more disturbing than the articles we've already discussed on the show, and why experts are calling this a new form of Munchausen Syndrome. We learn about an amputation doctor who has a fetish for cutting off body parts, why he got arrested, and how he manifested his fetish in himself. And we learn about celebrity children's books, why they always cover the same two topics, and why celebrities do them in the first place.Brain Candy Podcast Presents: Susie & Sarah's SpOoOoOoOoktacular Spectacle, October 30, Oriental Theater, Denver, Colorado: Get your tickets! 00:00 - Welcome to the Show and Our SpOoOoOoOoktacular Spectacle04:37 - Embracing Spontaneity and the Joys of a Childless Life10:15 - Uncovering the Bizarre Habit of Susie's Toilet-Loving Cat13:32 - Manage Your Finances with Rocket Money App15:31 - Deep Dive into the Disturbing Unknown Number Documentary27:44 - Discover Your Style with Daily Look Personal Stylist31:02 - Unpacking the Disturbing Case of the Amputee Doctor42:04 - Simplify Meal Prep with Hungry Root Delivery47:34 - The Cash Grab Behind Celebrity Children's Book Publishing58:36 - Redefining Dreams and Podcast FarewellBrain Candy Podcast Website - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/Brain Candy Podcast Book Recommendations - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/books/Brain Candy Podcast Merchandise - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/candy-store/Brain Candy Podcast Candy Club - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/product/candy-club/Brain Candy Podcast Sponsor Codes - https://thebraincandypodcast.com/support-us/Brain Candy Podcast Social Media & Platforms:Brain Candy Podcast LIVE Interactive Trivia Nights - https://www.youtube.com/@BrainCandyPodcast/streamsBrain Candy Podcast Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/braincandypodcastHost Susie Meister Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/susiemeisterHost Sarah Rice Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/imsarahriceBrain Candy Podcast on X: https://www.x.com/braincandypodBrain Candy Podcast Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/braincandy (JOIN FREE - TONS OF REALITY TV CONTENT)Brain Candy Podcast Sponsors, partnerships, & Products that we love:For 50% off your order, head to https://www.dailylook.com and use code BRAINCANDYCancel your unwanted subscriptions and reach your financial goals faster at https://rocketmoney.com/braincandy today.Get 40% off your first box PLUS get a free item in every box for life when you go to https://www.hungryroot.com/braincandy and use code BRAINCANDYSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Our teacher today is Steve Mandel, founder of Lone Pine Capital, one of the defining investment firms of our time. For starters, Steve is, without question, among the most important leaders in the investment management industry. Consider that Seth Klarman once called him, “the best industry analyst I've ever met, who became the best long short hedge fund manager of his generation.” In our opinion, the magic of Lone Pine resides in the principles that form its foundation and the people that animate its culture. But to understand the organization, you really need to first understand its master builder, a man of unusual integrity whose reputation across every dimension of his life and at every chapter of his life is so consistent and compelling when it comes to investing. Steve has an infectious Buffett-like love for the craft, and he's someone who seems more rooted in an orientation of service than any investor we've ever met. And one of the great paradoxes of this story is that from day one, Steve deliberately architected Lone Pine so that it would always be about more than just him. Beyond Lone Pine, we also discuss the value of having heroes and mentors, how relationships can enrich an education and a career, the art of doing great research, and what is important when investing in periods of accelerated change. John Gardner once said, “There are men and women who make the world better just by being the kind of people they are.” It's truly an honor to bring this conversation to you with one of those kinds of people. Please enjoy class with the one and only Steve Mandel.

Welcome to Sunday Civics, where L. Joys go beyond the headlines, the doom and despair, to discuss civic engagement and taking action. Yes, there is a growing frustration with elected officials and the lack of visible leadership. But, she's challenging us to reflect on our roles—are we waiting for leadership, or are we actively engaging, organizing, and holding officials accountable? If the public isn't actively pushing for change, officials won't feel the pressure to act. She highlights a recent example where grassroots organizers created a 24-hour State of the People event, demonstrating that true leadership comes from the people first, not from politicians.

Dennis is joined via Zoom by author Stephanie Elizondo Griest to discuss her latest book Art Above Everything: One Woman's Global Exploration of the Joys and Torments of a Creative Life, which is so up Dennis's alley. (Actually, a listener reached out to Dennis and said, "You need to check out this book. It's what you talk about all the time.") Stephanie talks about the through line that many of the women she profiled share, how the big things that happened in world while she was working on the book--COVID, her own cancer diagnosis, the #metoo movement, Trumpism--impacted her work and the question for artists that lies at the heart of the book; Is it worth it? Stephanie also talks about the alternative paths she could have chosen, how even the safe roads in life aren't safe anymore and what she's observed about young people since she started working as a writing professor in North Carolina. Other topics include: the boyfriend she had when she was living in Russia who was given an offer to kill someone for money, her complicated relationship to belly dancing, getting to spend time with one of her heroes. author Sandra Cisneros, the Ugandan playwright she interviewed who saw where Trumpism was heading way back in 2015, how various foreign countries support their artists and how American's Karen-esque sense of entitlement may be what ends up saving us all. https://stephanieelizondogriest.com

Can real friendship heal division in the Church? When I sit with John 17, I'm struck that He was praying for a unity that's visible, relational, and compelling—a unity that makes the world stop and notice that He was sent by the Father. That kind of unity shows up in real friendships, in shared service, in conversations where we seek truth together—not to win an argument, but to love each other well and grow together, even when we don't see eye to eye. It's messy, but it's also where the Lord does His best work. In this episode of EquipCast, I sit down with Max Chapman and Jeremiah Zimmerman from the More Mercy apostolate to talk about what this looks like in real life. Max shares how praying with John 17 sparked a deep desire in him to build bridges with Christians from other traditions. What started as simple conversations turned into friendships that not only challenged him but also strengthened his Catholic faith. You'll hear why unity isn't just an ideal for theologians—it's something we're all called to live, one relationship at a time.

What are Lutherans to think about the saints?

William Weedon to talk through pressing questions about whether and how we can faithfully and appropriately celebrate the saints of God.   What actually is a saint?

Joining host Michael Azevedo on this episode are Jen Bradwell and Todd Boekelheide, the married co-directors of "Make A Circle," a new documentary that offers a rare, inside look at the lives of child care providers and early educators — the backbone of a child care system on the brink.   The film premieres Monday, September 1 streaming nationally on PBS.org, the PBS app and on PBS TV stations (check local listings) across the country.    As Jen Bradwell says: “Make A Circle is a love letter to early educators and a portrait of a child care system in crisis. The film delves into one of the greatest disconnects in American society: the importance of a child's first five years versus how the work of early care and education is valued.”   Often viewed as “babysitters,” the dedicated educators in Make A Circle create magic in the classroom, face struggles at home, and remain passionate about their profession. The film gives voice to these educators and their ideas on the best ways to improve the system.    Making Media Now is sponsored by Filmmakers Collaborative, a non-profit organization dedicated to supporting media makers from across the creative spectrum. From providing fiscal sponsorship to presenting an array of informative and educational programs, Filmmakers Collaborative supports creatives at every step in their journey.
