This week, DB reflects on last week's fantastic conversation with Dr. Claire Perelman. Let's take a moment to really unpack jealousy and envy, no matter if you're ENM or monogamous. What does jealousy say about us -- and what does it not? There's a sense of shame around jealousy that we can move past using our emotional honesty and by naming what we're feeling. Plus: a vocab lesson on jealousy versus envy. They're different! JEALOUSY SCRIPTS YOU CAN STEALWhen jealousy pops up mid-scroll: “Hey love, I'm feeling a jealousy pang. I'm going to take 10 minutes to breathe and journal, then could we do a quick check-in about Friday's plans? I think I need a clearer start/stop time so I can plan something for me.” When you need reassurance without rules: “I'm not asking you to stop seeing them. I'm asking for a reassurance ritual--a goodnight text and a Saturday morning debrief. That would help my nervous system a lot.” When you want to celebrate your partner but still have feels: “I'm happy you had a great date, and I'm noticing some jealousy in me. Could we carve 30 minutes tomorrow for us? I want to reconnect.” Repair after a jealous blow-up: “I got flooded and got snappy. I'm sorry. The story in my head was ‘I'm being replaced.' Here's what I'm going to try next time: pause, breathe, then ask for a check-in.” ABOUT SEASON 12 Season 12 of Sex Ed with DB is ALL ABOUT PLEASURE! Solo pleasure. Partnered pleasure. Orgasms. Porn.

Before the Conference League anthem came on in Celje Slovenia, one warm August night this year, today's guest had a lot of work behind him already while I was was on my way via train, uber and rental car from Bosnia. He is Rok Gregoric, press and pr wizard of NK Celje, a Slovenian club that was long a middling in the league of an already small country but has made it to the group phase of the conference league last year and again this year. A remarkable feat for a really pretty quiet city between the two main Slovenian cities Ljubljana and Maribor. Find out why. But also: what goes on in a smaller club when a UEFA competition comes to town? How do they coordinate with the visitors? What security arrangements have to be made? Where does all the UEFA signage come from? Which media gets which access? Rok takes us behind the scenes of his work, and shares about the club and the city - and a remarkable coach. HELPFUL LINKS FOR THIS EPISODE:NK Celje, websiteCelje, with city history, WikipediaNEW: send me a text message!

Earlier in this season of The Object of History, we visited the tombs of Robert C. Winthrop (Season 4, Episode 4) and Isabella Stewart Gardner (Season 4, Episode 5).

On this bonus episode, we revisit Mount Auburn, learn more about its history, and share additional portions of our conversation with Winslow. Mount Auburn is the first American cemetery that purposely combined commemoration with elements of experimental gardening, picturesque landscape design, and access to nature, starting a trend across the nation in the mid-19th century that led to the creation of the first public parks in this country.

This is Part 2 of an unusual episode, on the move through countries, memories, wounds, war, peace and the beautiful game.Sturm Graz is and was a workers club when I came to the club in the 90s, one year before Ivica Osim arrived. We knew he was a mathematician, soccer player and coach, and he knew workers clubs, from Željezničar, in Grbavica, back home in Sarajevo, the city then under a yearlong siege in the Bosnian independence wars. But he added something else. To him, the game was discourse, it was beauty. He explained soccer to us in a way we'd never seen it. Professorial and sometimes grumpy, but always extremely humble. He made us see things in football that we hadn't seen before. And even on the day of his funeral, he made me see things about life that I wouldn't have seen otherwise.Osim, an Agnostic and philosopher of football and of the world, is a kind of saint most Bosnians can agree on. He is recommended reading in Japanese schools. And he is the reason why I went to Sarajevo this hot August. HELPFUL LINKS AND SOURCES FOR THIS EPISODE:Ivica Osim (Wikipedia)Tifa (Mladen Vojičić) - Grbavica, live in 1994 (YouTube); introTifa - Grbavica at Grbavica stadium, with Zeljo's fans; (Youtube) outroIvica Osim memorial ceremony in Graz (Youtube), during introSev Dah - Grbavica (Youtube) (background track)CNN's Christiane Amanpour reporting after the Srebrenica genocide (Youtube - warning, brutality and dead bodies)Uni of Michigan Libraries, resource guide for Bosnian history and cultureSarajevo (wikipedia)Visit SarajevoNEW: send me a text message!

Sturm Graz is and was a workers club when I came to the club in the 90s, one year before Ivica Osim arrived. We knew he was a mathematician, soccer player and coach, and he knew workers clubs, from Željezničar, in Grbavica, back home in Sarajevo, the city then under a yearlong siege in the Bosnian independence wars. But he added something else. To him, the game was discourse, it was beauty. He explained soccer to us in a way we'd never seen it. Professorial and sometimes grumpy, but always extremely humble. He made us see things in football that we hadn't seen before. And even on the day of his funeral, he made me see things about life that I wouldn't have seen otherwise.Osim, an Agnostic and philosopher of football and of the world, is a kind of saint most Bosnians can agree on. He is recommended reading in Japanese schools. And he is the reason why I went to Sarajevo this hot August. This is Part 1 of an unusual episode, on the move through countries, memories, wounds, war, peace and the beautiful game.HELPFUL LINKS AND SOURCES FOR THIS EPISODE:Uni of Michigan Libraries, resource guide for Bosnian history and cultureIvica Osim (Wikipedia)Tifa (Mladen Vojičić) - Grbavica, live in 1994 (YouTube); introTifa - Grbavica at Grbavica stadium, with Zeljo's fans; (Youtube) outroIvica Osim memorial ceremony in Graz (Youtube), during introSev Dah - Grbavica (Youtube) (background track)CNN's Christiane Amanpour reporting after the Srebrenica genocide (Youtube - warning, brutality and dead bodies)Sarajevo (wikipedia)Visit SarajevoNEW: send me a text message!

Long before World War II officially kicked off in 1939, trade unionists were already sounding the alarm. They saw fascism for what it was—racism, anti-Semitism, militarism, authoritarianism. Union workers and leaders resisted—they distributed leaflets, hid their Jewish neighbors and co-workers, sabotaged Nazi logistics, and even joined armed struggle. In the latest episode of Solidarity Works, we dive into this powerful—and often overlooked—period of resistance in modern history led by everyday workers who stood up against fascism and showed that solidarity is not merely a word; it's an action.

Damiano Benzoni, Italian journalist and seasoned groundhopper, has written a wonderful book - an "emotive map of football in Berlin," a rich portrait of a city through the eyes of football. And when that city happens to be the German capital, torn by wars, shaped by the dvide between two Germanies and various migrant influences, the texture of such a book happens to be particularly interesting. The book, for now, is available only in Italien, so consider this an English language exclusive.We also get an update on SC Freiburg's last season. And just to scare the right people away, an Austrian workers' song that dovetails wonderfully with Gabriel Kuhn's engaging portrait of a social democratic soccer utopia from Spring.HELPFUL LINKS FOR THIS EPISODE:Book website (Urbone Publishing)Damiano Benzoni on X and InstagramBiberstand Boys - Unioner im Haus (YouTube) - this is an anti-Union song, mind you!Die Arbeiter von Wien - Austrian workers' song (YouTube), with English lyricsNEW: send me a text message!
