When you think about love, what comes to mind? Maybe a movie like Love Actually or Love & Basketball. Maybe Dolly Parton or Whitney Houston singing "I Will Always Love You." Love shows up a lot in our pop culture— but what about in our politics? The relationships we build…the people we love…the way we treat each other…all of that can be political. This hour, we hear about the importance of love in political organizing and the way even our most intimate relationships can be political. GUESTS: Dean Spade: Author, activist and professor at the Seattle University School of Law. His latest book is called Love in a F*cked Up World: How to Build Relationships, Hook Up, and Raise Hell, Together Terri Conley: Professor of Psychology at University of Michigan. She co-wrote a chapter called “Love is Political: How Power and Bias Influence Our Intimate Lives” in the book The New Psychology of Love See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on The Bardcast episode 22, ( the C side) we begin with a delightful Raymond Carver poem sent in by a Naval chaplain, that has us musing on the things we choose to gaze upon with love. We then move to consider the gifts on offer from Dionysius as compared with Christ in the Eucharist and then muse on the freedom from sexual exploitation that was eventually gained when Christianity came to Pagan Rome. Finally we learn from St Teresa of Avila of the intoxicating glories of the wine cellar of the King, and also from Christopher West's beautiful new book ‘Eating the Sunrise' we hear his marvellous story of the insights of a Hindu lady when she first hears with great astonishment about the Eucharist. THE BARDCAST airs live and can be listened to on www.RadioMariaEngland.uk or digital radio in London, Bristol, South Birmingham and Cambridge at 3:15pm after the Divine Mercy Chaplet on Sundays and 8pm on Fridays. Each week Sarah de Nordwall reflects on poems that have been sent in, shares a poem of her own, leaves us with a theme and a writing prompt and sends us off to write something ourselves.

Then, firm in renunciation and yoga, with your heart free, you will come to me.” It's not about being a believer or about following dogma It's about embodying the energy and character of love - the vehicle is devotion - and the essence - the Love - that is Krishna - Christ Consciousness - call it what you will - the meaning of life Devoted in this way - one will never truly be harmed “All those who take refuge in me, whatever their birth, race, sex, or caste, will attain the supreme goal; this realization can be attained even by those whom society scorns. 33 Kings and sages too seek this goal with devotion. Therefore, having been born in this transient and forlorn world, give all your love to me. 34 Fill your mind with me; love me; serve me; worship me always. Seeking me in your heart, you will at last be united with me.”

Give honor to marriage, and remain faithful to one another in marriage. ~ Hebrews 13:4 People will talk about what it's like to be married and how to love your partner, but rarely do you hear the word faithful. Desire to be supported and encouraged by other like-minded women? Join us at Women of IMPACT. http://bit.ly/WomenofIMPACT Today, on this Easter weekend, I want to remind you how God sees marriage — Christ and His bride (the church). God is faithful and He wants us to experience the commitment He has for His bride as we do in marriage. I can't help but see how much God's actions are to be mirrored in our marriages. The K.I.S.S. ~ Honor your spouse! Honoring your spouse is seeing him/her from the perspective of choice, not by obligation. This comes from a place of respect and service. God chose His bride, the church. You chose your spouse and made a commitment. However, with the choice come responsibilities that are not always the easiest to live out by words and actions. Yet you can honor your spouse and remain faithful to one another through unity, sacrifice, and love. UNITY: Embrace your spouse's unique gifts. Don't try and make your spouse the way you want him/her to become. Let him/her live out God's plan for his/her life with his/her talents. SACRIFICE: Live a selfless life. Give more and serve more. There's no keeping score. LOVE: See your spouse through God's eyes. God loved you first so you too can love. Over the next few days, really look at how you can honor and remain faithful to one another. See the cross differently in your marriage. "Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"   #RelationshipBuilders #CreateYourNow #LoveAndMarriage TAKE A.I.M. ~ Action Ignites Motivation  - This is a complimentary (FREE) coaching call with me.

No matter what life throws at you, good or bad you're not alone in it. Losing a loved one is never easy it can cause great pain, hurt and depression, Sometimes we'll get over it going at it alone and sometimes we don't, but the thing about life is that there are always some even if it's the faithful few that will be there for you in your time of need. Life is what it is people and is up to you and I tend joy it we're not enjoyed the best way we can and and that's with love and others, if you don't have anyone to love and take this wonderful journey we call life and happiness, then you might want to check yourself. Life is beautiful, we just have to humble ourselves to see and enjoy it. (RIP) SALT, I LOVE AND MISS YOU SO MUCH LITTLE BRO❤❤❤ --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/enjoyinglife/support

SPIRITUALITY - Do you want your life to be defined by worldly pursuits or by Christian love? One of the foundations of being able to love big is to be able to see your sin as sinful. 

SPIRITUALITY - Jesus-style love is a stubborn love is most definitely not the kind of love that comes naturally. Here's the first of four short prayers that help fuel this kind of love.

Everyone in the Jam Band scene has some idea of who Mihali is. In case you don't, he's the front man for Vermont's Twiddle. Twiddle have been around since 2004, and since that time, Mihali has been the principal song-writer for the band. What you may not know is that Mihali has also spent a lot of time gigging as a solo act, but has never released his own album. As you'll soon hear, it's a project he's been thinking about for quite some time, and it really came together over the last few years. His music, as you'd probably expect, is rooted in reggae sounds and vibes. To produce the album he enlisted Eric Krasno, and invited a few friends to record as well. We caught up with Mihali fresh off his solo show at the Live from Out There virtual festival, to talk about Breathe and Let Go which he performed in its entirety and much more.  First Song: 00:56: Empty Overflow Interview Begins: 04:33 Extro Song: 23:43 - Strongest of Our Kind (feat.

All right, and with that, let's get to the episode.Okay. Well, well, well, welcome to another episode of Pop Apologist Chandler. It's been a minute. yes, I miss last week's Patreon, but I think that was [00:01:00] actually for the best because you were able to be unshackled and unsheathed and unhinged, truly, in the best way. I listened to it yesterday while coming on from work dying Laughing. I just honestly feel like you maybe, I don't know if you took a drug before, I don't know if you, so Kagan was like green light, green light, and then you pop something and then you recorded,Green light. Green light. Chandler's not gonna be on this recording. Here's your medication.Literally like, I don't know, whatever you took, keep taking it because it was so good. So anyways,good for businessit's, it's good for business. Seriously. performance. Enhancingdrugs are permitted on Ologists. thank you so much. That's so nice. it did feel so good to be unshackled from, you know, any sort of censorship in and just allow our listeners to bathe in my stream of thought. gross. I hope everyone enjoyed, that [00:02:00] episode.It was truly unhinged. I did call you after and we had like a moment where you were like, what did you say? But let's move forward.yeah, you were very excited about how much you were able to say, the episode wasn't, I don't know. I didn't find it to be as inflammatory as I nervously thought it was going to be. So I think what it was is it was just your most enraged stream of consciousness, which I, found to be refreshing.I like to bathe in it.to be honest with you, I was also just like unafraid to really just say really weird shit and like pull in quotes from random people and say what really felt true to my soul about the Vanderpump reunion part two. So anyway, I'm excited to what.What struck me about that episode, was really you putting your philosophy degree to good work, making your professors and, cohorts proud because you were, pulling in, Plato's Cave and, you know, other, other nods and illusions, to, you know, really unpack the [00:03:00] Vanderpump Rules part two reunion.And I just thought about how proud you must make all your professors.It got biblical. Okay. There was ancient wisdom expressed in that reunion. but I also had moments of true stupidity where I couldn't remember about the cult war. Okay, you couldn't remember like Gorbachev, I don't even actually know if that's the way you say that person's name, but I even know who Gorbachov was. Bring down the wall. even remember the president who said it? it was a fugue state episode, so everyone needs to listen to it. Quick note on Gorbachev, mom would always talk about that moment of like bringing down thewall and like she would get very like emotional. So I have a very emotional tie to that as well, through her, through osmosis. but I, I was not a proud or present. So it's shocking that you didn't rememberlet's Move forward to today's episode.Chandler, I have an exciting update for you. You ready? a personal update.A personal update.Okay.I have sold officially my wedding dress[00:04:00] Are you getting divorce? thankfully, no, I did not fire, sell it out of spite. but I sold my wedding dress and I want to normalize selling wedding dresses because as a bride, I found the shopping process for wedding dresses to be extremely daunting.Yep.You look down at price tags and you're like, what? it's inconceivable. It's unimaginable. And so for me, the way I justified the price of my wedding dress was I was like, all right, whatever. I'm just gonna sell it when I'm done. and I want to share this philosophy in case it brings some, some sort of peace to brides as they're shopping for wedding dresses.They can, you know, spring for the one they really want, knowing that they will. give it to another bride once they're done, Mm-hmm. or just kind of like normalize, you know, not feeling like you have to hang onto it forever. So these are my, philosophical points about selling your wedding dress.Okay.Buckling in.First of all, I think that your [00:05:00] wedding dress is meant to be ephemeral, something for the moment. And I think there's something really beautiful about, instead of having it sit in a box, just taking up space in your garage, in your storage area, in a room, in your house, in your closet, letting it go.Have a second life. Like letting it go get worn by someone who will equally adore it. Second of all, Okay. wedding dress stored in a home, puts unnecessary pressure on the daughters in that home. It's like someone's gotta make use out of this wedding generations, it becomes their trauma.becomes their burden to bear And. I also think that the styles are gonna change.Your daughter's not gonna wear your wedding dress. Your granddaughter is definitely not going to, that is like a one in a million chance. So anyway, I think that is a very stew point if I do say so myself. Well, also, best case scenario is that it becomes raw materials for [00:06:00] like a new dress. It gets cut up and you know, sewn into something completely different,But again, that puts so much pressure on like all the future brides in your family. Mom literally growing up, she would tell me, she would would tell us if your mother-in-law ever is like, brings you her dress and is like, I would love for you to wear this. She's like, here's your excuse.You're gonna say, I always dreamed of the day where I'm gonna shop for my dress with my mom. mom. Like pre-programmed this Yeah. I don't remember that, but I believe that that happened.So anyway, I just think that is another point. And then finally, I wanted to transform my wedding dress into something that can be actually worn every day.So I wanted to take the money and purchase something like a piece of jewelry, something that I it's with me all the time. and so now I'm so excited because I'm like dreaming and fantasizing about what I'm going to, potentially purchase with this money, it's gonna be my dress, like on my wrist or on my finger or whatever.[00:07:00] So are my thoughts and you know what? Come at me if you disagree and we can hold a debate.I loved those points. I think they all check out for me. you told me about selling your wedding dress and, you know, it definitely gave me a lot of faith and hope for, that future day for myself, because I realized I don't have to like, basically lose a bunch of money in the wedding dress endeavor.Hundred percent. Absolutely not. You can also, by the way, get one that's pre-owned and you can give it a second life. Right. Two questions for you. How much of your wedding dress costs were you able to recoup? You don't have to say how much your dress was and how much you sold it for, but how much? I don't know how to add or subtract. So I'm getting out my calculator and it's gonna take me a second cuz I'm not even sure I know how toSo what you're gonna do mountain you sold your wedding dress for. You're gonnaI got 61% of the value back Wow. Okay. That's amazing. and that's with all your self [00:08:00] tanner staining it, right? Chandler, it is 8:00 AM Okay. You are awake this morning. I think 61% is a staggering. resellvalue. anyway, that, that is, Something I wanted to share. Thank you. with you? as you spoke about, I've been very, very busy at work. and I don't even know if I have the emotional bandwidths to unpack that, but I will say that I, am hopefully going to be in a better spot in about a month from now. Um, so I'm looking forward to that. I did not get laid off.I'll just tell everyone that. I was not under, you know, extreme work dress because I got laid off. and I ended up going camping this weekend just to, you know, put a cherry on top of my, already hectic week. you going camping when you live in a New York City is a special kind of hell because you don't have the storage space for camping gear.So you essentially have to, Bag steal, borrow rent by, Amazon [00:09:00] rent. Um, I wish Ben AB buyed by more of the Amazon rental policy, but he doesn't. He, went to r e I and, treated himself.I will say that he told me that he bought a two-person sleeping bag, which I thought was cute and cozy. And, we head out on our first night of camping and you know, it's 1:00 AM by the time we get back to our, little tent. And he unfurls what is a one person sleeping bag.  a grave error had been made at r e I, you know, a huge oversight and blunder on his part.and I just kind of stared in disbelief. I was just kind of likeI'm that I've had. Right. I almost went full mom after everything I've done for you after the day that I've had. anyways, he's overhearing me, you know, rake him over the coals for this mistake. But it was a grave error and I just kind of was like, I can't believe, am I gonna have to go sleep in the accord?honestly would probably be much more comfortable. So what did you do? well thank God he had actually somewhat prepared for [00:10:00] worst case scenario. And so we had several extra blankets and we were able to unfurl the sleeping bag, We basically just like laid it out flat and then we had extra blankets.But, you know, Were you freezing? no, I wasn't freezing. Ben just wanted to correct the record. He said it looked exactly like the double sleeping bag. Yes it did. I'm sure it looked like that. But you should always double check the label. Dig Do you wanna come on the record right now and do you wanna say anything? No. Do you wanna apologize to med? Like I'd like a public apology.he says he would like me to be nicer about the lovely weekend we had, we did have a lovely weekend.besides that huge blunder, and, you know, frankly, it's Ben's responsibility to make sure that everything is perfect for our vacations. that's in life, and in my life, and I'm not gonna take responsibility for, you know, a vacation that we both decided to go on. it's, you know, it's his responsibility.so with that trial behind me, we actually were able to have a lovely time and, return back to New York to our, you know, essentially tent of an apartment. Oh, [00:11:00] please. Your apartment is so cute I'm just happy that you had a weekend in nature. I know the sleeping arrangements were not ideal, but I did you find some rejuvenation in Mother Earth?oh, I absolutely did. And for what it's worth, After coming back from the camping trip, Ben and I talked about how we do want to be a family that camps with like our kids someday. And so we're just gonna have a really dialed in setup and I do look forward to, getting even better at the experience.And, you know, I'm grateful for being pushed out of my comfort zone. So there you go. Hope you're happy, Ben is really good because he is like, no, we're actually gonna be skiers. Like, you're gonna get the clothes and you're gonna buy the pass. Like instead of buying a stupid $400 dress or just like spending too much money on necessarily on all sorts of random crap and not being responsible and just being really bad with finances and just like not having good priorities, you are going to get a ski pass and we're gonna enjoy nature together and we're gonna go outside.And I think that for blitz, so girls, [00:12:00] we really need the push, like we need a benevolent dictator to get us to be rigorous and it's, it's sometimes some tough love really does us some good.No, it's absolutely true. We need the push, we need a little bit of that, you know, kick in the pants to be like, no, you are, you're gonna actually fully commit to this experience. I mean, I can't tell you the amount of times where we have been chatting about future vacations, that I wanna go on.And Ben has said, you know, let's just be mindful of all the PTL we wanna take, or all the, the time we wanna spend skiing in December. And I've been like, oh yeah, you're right. it. I love it too. And I definitely have a bad attitude, I'll be honest. But once I am actually doing the thing, I feel so proud of myself.And I, I do feel like Ben has made me into a more interesting, more adventurous person, even if I complain the, entire time. Soright. Chandler's Instagram bio for a long time was, I'll go, but I'll complain the whole time. I think it still is [00:13:00] that, to beis it still of who I am.Yeah, absolutely. Um, okay. Can I tell you about an experience in nature I just had and that I have a tip for everyone?Oh yeah. Did you go outside your apartment?So for the first time in years, I went outside my apartment of my own volition, because I've realized my brain is kind of broken in certain ways. Like, I used to be a person that, and Chandler can attest to this, like she could take the stand hand on the Bible and not perjure herself saying that I used to run the beach trail like every dayyour honor, Lauren Bledso used to run the San Clemente Beach Trail and you know, I can also attest to the fact that she also used to camp with an ex-boyfriend,handle the square. yes. I used to enjoy being outside and I used to get myself outside and I used to run and I used to like crave it. And I just got so out of the habit that I lost that routine. I lost that habit. And so for me, I've decided, [00:14:00] um, really wanted to start doing that again.but it's always been so tough cuz I'm like, I gotta run, but I don't really wanna run here in Puerto Rico. It's too hot. Running on the beach is too hard. and so anyway, yesterday I was like, I'm gonna go sit on the beach Kagan was like, let's go. We're not gonna bring our phones.Like, let's just go sit on the beach. Okay. Like two, homages. So anyway, we did and it was so hot. It was so sandy. Mm-hmm. frankly just like, this is too much for in? You do live in Puerto Rico slash Costa RicaMexico. Yeah. no, no, it's, it's been unseasonably hot. Like there's like health warnings right now about like, be careful about going outside. It's like 96, 97. So it was super hot and we came back in cuz we couldn't bear it. went back out an hour later, but I was just like, I'm not going to set this unnecessary expectation that I'm gonna go outside and I'm going to look at the sky and I'm gonna commune with nature and I'm just going to be like, why don't I just go [00:15:00] outside and bring my phone and listen to a podcast and go on Instagram, but I'll be by the beach.And it really was so nice and so anyway, Perfect is the Enemy of Good. Everyone and Baby Steps really are, advised from my personal experience. first of all, I think it's really sweet that Kagan wanted to go have a moment with you without your phone. I think that's very cute.even if it was, you know, misery and you, you know, very quickly decided to abort mission. well, this is, you know what I've always said to you, you know, even when you had some darker times earlier this year, like just go outside.Literally bring a glass of wine or like, or don't bring your phone or a podcast or whatever vice you wanna bring and just like, just get out of the indoor space. Like, it's just so nice to feel the sun on your face, even if you know it's while you're looking down at Instagram.And honestly, Ashley always has some quote that's like, never trust a thought you have indoors. Oh, interesting. really smart. Um, and honestly, like, [00:16:00] I love everything Lauren Bostick is doing. I love the skinny confidential, but like, I also think there's a, a powerful message of like, get the fuck into the sun.Like, just get sun. well, I think, I think her message is more like, I'll be in the sun, but I'm gonna cover every, you know, surface of my body. Which is fine, but I also think it's actually okay if every now and then, like you face the sun, unbridled, that's the rightword. Absolutely, absolutely. no Tino Shade, like literally adore please have us on your podcast. at some point We would love to be on. at some point. I would love to Kagan, like literally, okay. I'll just take the moment. I was in a very important meeting, like a huge important meeting. I'm out here, it's a big deal. with this very thoughtful brand that had put together a presentation for us, and I'm 15 minutes into it. This is a whole shenanigan, but I got home from my trip to [00:17:00] St. Barts last weekend and their wifi was not working in our home.there was just a lot of problems. Okay. So anyway, long story short, Kagan was working on the wifi I mean this very important meeting. We thankfully had wifi up, but I guess he went to go optimize it. And the wifi is set up, is feet away from this table where I record and do all my meetings and he just b blazes right past what I'm doing and just unplugs the wifi.Just unplugs, just unplugs. The meeting goes dark. Meanwhile, I had gone to Starbucks. right before the meeting thinking I needed to take it there. And then 10 minutes before he's like, WiFi's back on, you can come back and take it here. So then I'm in the middle of the meeting and he just waltz is right by me and unplugs it.You know what that unplugged says, I don't care about your career. I don't take you seriously as a businesswoman.no, I, what I think it says is, you have car blanche spending budget. I just got everything. We don't need you to ever make any money. here's my credit card. oh, totally. Actually, that is what it [00:18:00] said,that's, that's that's the read. Congratulations.Okay. Everyone heard my thoughts on Van Depe rules?We need to hear your thoughts on Yeah. Well, okay, first of all, let me say, I watched this reunion in two parts because I didn't really, honestly have the time to sit down and watch it, at length. The first half that I watched was during one of my very late night working sessions. We had to wait for something to get done, essentially in the, wee hours in the morning, and we didn't have anything to do, but wait, so I made everyone at work watch Vanderpump Rules the uncensored version, which was a treat. it, you know, it washonestly, perfect work activity. anyways. It was like at, you know, 1:30 AM it was very crazy to watch this reunion with people who do not know the show because I felt like it was very explosive.It was very raw, you know, James storming off. Like it was so,like, the tempers and the, the emotions were turned up to, I would say a nine or a 10 almost the entire time that, like, [00:19:00] watching it with people who were not familiar with the show. I, I almost feel like I needed to say like, you know, it's not always like this, but it kind of always You? like this.you wanna say like, you don't know how good you have it? Like this is the best of the best. This is Right? ever seen. Totally. Totally. Yeah. I do wanna say, did you think that James Kennedy was doing coke which is why he kept leaving, or no?honestly, that's a really good question. I don't know what it would be like to be addicted to Coke so much that you would need it, to function, obviously. so I honestly couldn't tell you. It would be like someone asking me Do you think that James was doing, I don't know, like Ashwaganda?Oh no. Never tried it. right, right, right. What do you think? Ido think?it's very, as a Koch addict, I think it's very weird that he like, wanted to leave so much or that he felt like he needed to pee. I feel like, I don't know, maybe he had a u t i and he just wasn't, you know, prepared to share that on, on camera.But it is very weird, that he like constantly was trying to walk off [00:20:00] screen to go have a moment. pee constantly. And so that for me was very relatable. I mean, I guess you don't know too how long this part two was filmed over if it was like three hoursor six hours, Part two was sick cut down. Right. But I'm justsaying But part this particular episode,  Yeah, that's anyways, I wanna get into the moment where when they break and Tom Sandoval asks for a break off camera.I just don't think we've ever seen this man in a more frantic state.Well, that's what I loved about it cuz it just revealed so much, it revealed that he knows what he's doing and I'm so, capable of being swindled by a narcissist. so I think it was really revealing for me to be like, oh wait, his relationship with Ariana was not what he said it was.It was not so pathetic and terrible. It was not to devoid of lust and passion. Like he's a liar. He's literally lying Right, right. Yeah.[00:21:00] I think it was also for me, strangely satisfying to see how frantic and clearly unstable he was. You know, when he is like yelling at that production assistant or whatever and, clearly he is having to suffer andI, and I wanted to frankly see him suffer on camera because he, you know, he can't have a moment to himself.I'm sorry, you were on a reality television show and you have caused, it's literally the point you were being paid to be there, you know, and the producer was like, you can go have a moment by yourself and eat lunch. Like, you know, if you're just eating lunch by yourself, you know, you can have a moment where, you know, the camera might be filming you eating lunch by yourself, but you don't have to talk.You know, but he clearly wanted to have a moment with Raquel where they could, talk cameras down and, you know, get into more nitty gritty stuff, maybe get their story straight before she, was to come on. And we did actually see photos of them talking cameras like that.Remember the TMZ photos of them, like during the reunion where he looks like a vapi and like, he's just [00:22:00] like, ev like, uh, it's sobad must have been after that. Must have been after.everything wrapped.I just don't think they would've allowed that. I There's no they snuck off. I don't know if you caught it, but they took off their mics and they snuck off.Oh, really? and maybe we're gonna see hi hidden camera footage or camera footage of that conversation. I don't know. But that to me is like such a grave failure, of just like, I don't even wanna say, bravo. I just wanna say for like documentarians everywhere for the, people who invented the camera, and the microphone.Like the idea that they, no, like Thomas Edison, who invented lenses like they're like turning in their grave right now that these men, a valor did not pick up their cameras and just chase after them. right, right. to calm down.  I'm sorry. Okay. I'm sorry to bring that up. Another grave. Error. Huge moment was when Andy asked Tom Sandoval if he thought that Sheena had punched Raquel[00:23:00] and Tom Sandoval, you pointed this out.Took the longest pause. I mean, I was starting to feel anxious the longer that pause went on, because if I was Raquel watching that, I mean, I'm sure she died insidebecause it was just a very clear moment where he could have just been like, yeah, I think there was an altercation, you know, and his friendship has Sheena Long gone.He could burn that bridge or at least, you know, take Raquel's side in that moment. But he couldn't even do that. he basically made the whole thing look like a lie.I think that, Tom Sandals backed into a corner right now because he basically, I think that he doesn't wanna lose Raquel as his, like, feeding source of his narcissism, and he is gonna do whatever he can to keep her around. He wants her devotion, he wants, to go do his play band and that he wants to have her on dial, he wants to hook up with other girls. He wants it all. [00:24:00] And he doesn't care about her. Okay. And I just think that he's backed in such, such a hard place because in order to put all these chess moves into place, he has to perform all of these acts.He has to lie, lie, lie, lie, lie. And lying is exhausting. Like lying is so tiring. Cause you have to remember all the lies.Absolutely. But he clearly doesn't care about her because I think if he truly cared about her, he would be writing for her more. And he's not.What do you mean writing for her? In what way?I think he would've just been on her side about the Sheena altercation thing, he didn't have to say that. I think Sheena punched her, decked her. He could say, I think there was an altercation, or like, I think that, you know, something went down with Sheena and Raquel, you know, where Sheena was physical, you know, there was a bunch of ways where you could have, you know, use semantics. But I just thought, I thought in that moment he didn't actually care enough, or he just wasn't willing to go to the mat for Raquel.See, I read that the issue was that it was defamation that he could have been sued [00:25:00] if he said that Sheena actually punched Raquel. because that whatever that could do to any brand endorsement she has is she can prove that's materially false. And that's the reason Raquel dropped it because literally it puts them in a very precarious position where Sheena can take legal action. I do wonder if there was a conversation with between Raquel and Tom where she was, I'm gonna go file a restraining order against Sheena. Like, I wonder if he encouraged her to do that, or if he was involved in, in any part. But anyways,wouldn't be surprised if Tom Sandoval is involved in every single thing Raquel is doing. And I just also wanna say that what's so hilarious to me is that they had three weeks to prepare for this reunion between the time the affair was found out and the time they film, the reunion. I mean, have we ever seen, like our dad prepare for trial?Three weeks is a long time. Like get out all the discovery, get in the conference room, lay out the binders, put together the flow chart. remember the basic facts of when you're gonna pretend that Schwartz knew. Okay. The fact [00:26:00] that they are coming to this trial So unprepared is frankly, I mean it is like a Elaine Boff adjacent.Who's That is, um, Amber Herd's attorney.Oh, wow. Beautiful. forgot about her. I completely agree. Okay. I wanna get into another momentOkay.that just continues to show the messiness of this entire cast. I already mentioned it earlier, briefly, but green light. Green light. Oh my gosh. These people are so messy. AndOh, I was sorry. I just realized what you were talking about. the pill bottle.yes, I'm not talking about Matthew McConaughey's book. Lauren.green light. Green light. Okay. She's gonna say what it was. Sorry. Rover. when Tom Sandoval turns to shorts and goes, green light. Green light, when they are micd, when there are cameras everywhere. people are so that Tom's shorts can pull out a full Bud pill bottle.Not even just [00:27:00] like a discreet pill that's in his pocket like a mint. No, they are so messy. I cannot even begin to describe how messy they are. 13, 10 years later. I don't know how, however long this show has been going on. and that is one of, you know, the crowning, glories, I will say of Vander Pump ever heard of an Al Alto box? Ever heard of a tic-tac? Do you know how easy it is to just put it in something else? Like these people, some of their elevators do not go to the top. it is a joy to watch on our screens. Absolutely. That's one of my favorite expressions used. By the way, the elevator doesn'tthe top. That's the I was ready for you to tell me it was offensive. Okay. hilarious. Another bit of news that broke in the last, you know, three to four days, um, is that Taylor Swift and Maddie Healy are no longer ensconced. Um, the back grid photos have travelled and dried up and, you know, Maddie has gone back on tour in Europe for the 1975.sources have confirmed that, you know, the two have split up. And I just [00:28:00] wanna say, I wanna just clear the air on this and maybe, I don't know if I've expressed this, but these two have never made sense to me.Mm.I think that Taylor literally, you know, she takes up 60% of my subconscious thoughts these days.So I know a little bit about her. Taylor is a little too on the nose and Maddie is a little too cool. These two were always like, oil and vinegar, oil and water, whatever. And I just never fully understood their connection because I just feel like they operate in like different pop star stratospheres.And I'm not saying one is better than the other. Actually, I'll say that I think Taylor is obviously bigger and incredible than, than 1975, even though I do like the 1975. but I, yeah, I just, I never thought these two were gonna last. I do think it's interesting because there was so much fan backlash.I do wonder how much that played into maybe tree pain, having a, come to Jesus moment with Taylor.A mighty change of heart.but the last thing I'm gonna say on this subject, because, you know, it was only essentially like a three week long relationship. We've all been [00:29:00] there. I just think we're gonna see a lot more of Taylor's love life via backward.We absolutely are. We're gonna see a lot more candidates, we're gonna see a lot more fashion. Taylor is going to be in our lives a lot more thanks to Joe Allen finally hitting the bricks. and the one thing I will say is I think Maddie Healy served a really important purpose and Taylor's life.I think Taylor for so long, strived to be so likable and she strived to be the good girl. all the rules, right? And even trying to be so perfect, she was castigated and, you the public just gave her a horrible time for things that if a boy was doing them, just like she said in her song of the man, it would've been a chased, virtuous, you know, trajectory.So I think Maddie Healy has a certain level of, D G A F. Attitude,Yep, yep, GK that Taylor really needs. Okay. Because I think that he hopefully showed her that she can be [00:30:00] a little more empowered to stop trying to be what people want her to be. And I think she's so far down that road already, but I wanna see her really explode into it.Um, and I think that's the function Maddie served in her life. and yeah, I'm here for it and I'm here for the breakup. Cuz I agree with people though that this was not a correct match. Um, and they were not meant to procreate, and multiply and replenish the earth. I'm just so happy that the famine of Joe Allen and, you know, the photos of their romance is over and that we are, you know, are now going to be living in the feasting era. And thank you to RIT as well.There are seasons for everything Chandler and the sun has finally come out. Okay. And spring is upon us after a long winter. Okay. Um, I wanna talk to you about another piece of news that has come out. So, ah, Chandler, did you hear dissolution? [00:31:00] So, Natalie Portman and Benjamin Millie. Well, it's not a dissolution just yet, however, it is a fundamental betrayal of trust.So, Natalie Portman's husband, Benjamin Millie 45, recently had an affair with a 25 year old climate activist Camille Etan. please, you guys, I'm so sorry, but if I mispronounce that do not jam me. Like what do you expect? a climate enthusiast, an activist, whatever. I'm sorry. Let me just pause for a heavy eye roll.Okay, so Natalie's 41, Benjamin's 45. He has had an affair with a 25 year old climate activist , Camille Etan.So a source says that it was short-lived. This is a quote from people, by the way, if something's in people, everyone, that means that this is basically the word of the celebrity. So this This is basically their statement. It was short-lived and it is over.He knows he made enormous mistake and he's doing all he can to get Natalie to forgive him and keep their family together. Natalie is incredibly private and has no intention of playing this out in the media. Her biggest priority is [00:32:00] protecting her children and their privacy. All right, I just am gonna state some facts and I'm gonna allow people to draw their own conclusions.So, Chandley, do you wanna hear how Natalie and Benjamin metYes, I would love to.on the set of Black Swan in 2009, where he taught her to dance? Okay.Oh, wow. Okay.So they currently have two children. and let's get into the affair a little bit more. So, photographs published in French Magazine show some evidence of the affair and the magazine says In early March, the star of the Star Wars saga discovered that her husband was having an affair with a young woman.The magazine published images of Benjamin and Camille going into his office separately on May 24th and exiting 10 minutes apart almost two hours later. That timeline makes it seem like the affair was going on for at least a few months.Natalie and Benjamin's marriage was definitely on around that time, despite rumors of Rocky times in 2022, they were at the Beyonce concert in Paris, May 26th and we're photographed kissing at dinner on May 29th. Okay, so let's get into [00:33:00] who, Camille. Most Americans have never heard of Camille Etan, but she's better known in France. She's friends with Greta Thunberg Classic has made a number of short films on the environment and written the book for an ecological uprising, overcoming our collective powerlessness. Apparently she's have read an Nicha. the World of Power Lady, like Get a Grip. She was also named by French Vanity Fair as one of the 50 French women who made 2020. Okay, I this might lead peop. would hate us.Oh my gosh. She does not listen to our podcast and we don't want her as a listener, by the way. It's fine. this is a one star reviewer after just like one slip of the tongue.So this is very frustrating and sad, and I totally understand. Everyone's searching their souls right now thinking, how could someone cheat on someone as beautiful, smart, and as talented as an Natalie Portman? Here are a few things to consider everyone, and I'm just speaking facts. Let's take a look at how Benjamin and Natalie's relationship began as an affair.[00:34:00] Proceed.Portman and Benjamin Millie met in November, 2009 on the set of Black Swan for which he did the choreography. It was a classic muse in artist scenario. He was likely awed by her dedication, talent, and skill, making it so easy for him to fall in love with her. The problem at the time, Benjamin was in a long-term live-in relationship with principal dancer at the American Ballet Theater.Isabella Boyton Mm. Benjamin and Isabella had an East Village apartment and had just finished traveling the world together when Benjamin began his work on Black Swan. Now, we are not saying that Natalie's in the wrong for her husband's affair in 2023, but we are saying that a pattern of cheating on your fantastic partner is clear.Okay? And being unable to sustain monogamy seems to be something that is very much in his character.Yeah. Oh, Lauren's exhausted from this research.It's giving Tristan cheating on Chloe. Okay. He left his pregnant girlfriend for Chloe. Yes. It is [00:35:00] sad, but this is not the first time I did this. And I just think we need to, as women see patterns and we, we need to have discernment and I'm not placing blame, I just think we need context for this.Right. Because it's helpful to know that there were clues. It's actually more disturbing for me if this guy was just like the most upstanding of men right, he had fallen.right, right. I completely agree. I think that you need to look at how. Men operate in their relationships, whether that's their previous history, whether it's how they talk about their exes. You know, Ithink if a man refers to his ex if all of his exes are crazy, you'll probably become a crazy girl to him one day, A crazy woman,whatever. And you just have to look at the way that their brain, operates around women and, you know, and, and their past history.And the other thing is, is it's not about you. Like it's not about you not being enough. It's [00:36:00] about them being insecure. Like here's a list of women who've been cheated on in addition to Natalie Portman, Beyonce, Santa Miller, Sandra Bullock, Jennifer Garner, Halle Berry, Lauren Atkinson, I mean, icons of our time.You caught me off guard. I was like, who's that?I'm still getting used to the name. I was cheated on, not married obviously. but I just think that I'm definitely not by Kagan. Let's clear that air. I just think that it's so important to know and it's hard to let this lesson sink in because when it happens to you, you are just so, it's so hard not to feel like it's something wrong with you, but it is literally about that person's need for validation.it's about their, lack of moral scruples, their insecurities, There are issues with commitment The lack of work they have probably done on themselves. Like it's not like if you've cheated on someone, you can never re come back from that, or you can'theal, but I [00:37:00] just think, your cheater better be in weekly therapy with better help.Yeah, like it is adjacent, I think to recovering from alcohol abuse or recovering some from some sort of abuse. Like if that is something that's you've done in your past, you need to have clearly made leaps imbalance of progress in your mental health. And I think to bring it back full circle to Vanderpump rules, I think about Jax, you know, like Britney Forgave Jax and I listened to his recent episode with Heather McDonald on Juicy Scoop and he seems so light years ahead of where he used to be. So redemption is available to everyone You sound like preaching the Mormon gospel for I'm not about to bear my testimony, but I do think that, I do think that the plan of salvation is real. I do think that you can become a better person.I agree. And also for what it's worth, women also cheat this. This message applies to both men andwomen. yeah, it's so complex. I also think [00:38:00] like, look inward. Everyone look inward because it's so easy to think you don't have the capacity for that. But I mean, I think that really it takes a lighthouse. Having a lighthouse, having a moral compass, and knowing the monster within you as, someone would say, to understand, you know, the things that people are capable of when life gets hard and the acts of desperation that they can fall to.And that is why people do need, a north star. you know what Chandler. I wish Benjamin, Natalie well, Please use the code pop on better help for your free trial, Benjamin and Natalie. the journey ahead. Blessings on your road.Plus it's on your road. They're not actually, by the way, sponsors of us anymore. So that was free. I just don't want the FTC coming after us. okay. not ad. Not an ad.Not an ad. and they're not associated with this podcast in any legal way anymore. Okay. so I wanna tell everyone that I [00:39:00] did do a trip to St.Bart's with some girlfriends last weekend. I was talking to you about a Chandler, and I was like, is this annoying to talk about? Like, is this getting tone deaf and stupid? or should I do like a guide to St. Bart's? Because I wanna be aware, the same parts trip we did in a very, I think, economical way.and so I wanna share all my tips, the ways to do it like as cheaply as possible if you need to, um, and still have the most like, rock and rolling and good of times. So I think what I'm gonna do is like a quick 10 minute episode that's a standalone. That way if someone's searching St. Barts on podcasts and they just wanna hear those wrecks, they don't have to get through, the, betrayal of Benjamin and Right. in order to hear about Nikki Beach, you know? Absolutely. I, yes, I support it. I think this is a, you know, a great way to organize our, travel stuff and, I think we're, we're gonna try to do this, you know, for a lot of the destinations we go toYes.Maybe we'll call it like pop travel. We need a name for it.[00:40:00] Yeah, absolutely. I'm planning a trip to Italy currently for September, and so hopefully I'll do one of those after.You better. Okay, everyone, one more thing before we hit depart. I wanna talk about Erin and Sarah Foster's podcast. Now it's not really good business to like shout out other podcasts and to advertise competitors, but I'm trying to live in a space of there's enough for everyone. An abundance mentality.and I think that if you love this podcast so bad cause it's literally like a free swap. but let's be honest, we're not on their level. So, it's not that useful for them. Erin and Sarah, their podcast, their episodes with each other, you will love it if you love this podcast. And I highly, highly recommend listening.And I wanna share a few reasons why. So Erin and Sarah Foster's podcast, like this podcast, it really reveals the minds of other people, which is kind of scary. Like being able to, [00:41:00] like, once you've listened to someone for so many hours, you really kind of know their neurosis, their insecurities. Like it's so easy.And that like, almost like spooks me out. How Well a lot of people or some people know us.Me specifically. that's one thing that's come across when I've met listeners in the wild people who, you know, I, I still can't believe I meet anybody who listens to this podcast that isn't like us and mom. when I meet people, I feel like they really know me and like, know what I'm gonna joke about or know what like, they just kind of know already my bits not my like physical bits to be clear, but they like, they just like know my shtick, if youwill. And I think that is something that is a little, jarring to me always because I'm like, oh, wow. Like I've really danced for you all, you know, you really know who I am.Yeah, I heard Michael Bostick say it on the skin confidential. Like when you have hundreds of hours of content up there, you cannot hide who you are. And it is really [00:42:00] so true. yeah, it is like, it is so strange, like the one way intimacy happening on this podcast. But I will say when we do see someone in the wild, which happens like very, very rarely, it is like one of the most fun experiences ever.yeah. I'm obsessed.It's, love it. So if you ever see us, please say something cuz it yeah, itliterally makes my life. Yeah. it always feels like surreal.Okay. So anyway, back to Erin and Sarah. I like their podcast because there's a few things about it I like. One is they live in a world that is very rarefied. Like they are people who, they go to Gwyneth house for dinner. Not like regularly I can tell, but like, they're on the invite list to a dinner.They're on an invite list to a goop promotional event. has joined their podcast. they're in a group chat with other celebrities, which is, I can't even fathom that.they're in a group chat with other celebrities and. What I think is interesting is like you hear their own neurosis and insecurities come through, and like the reality of what it is to [00:43:00] be surrounded by people with a lot more frankly, like, and they talk about this kind of like success than you, and they're still working, they're still grinding, they're on their, they're on their grind.right. and you you hear they're striving like Sarah is very admittedly, like financially obsessed and like doesn't feel like she has enough, even though she has like a retired, pro tennis player, life partner.Yeah.and Erin went through so many years of trying to be a writer, trying so hard to be a writer and feeling like such a failure.And even though they grew up in Beverly Hills, like you listen to talk about their childhood, which was so fractured. I mean, David Foster is on my shit list. Right? Public enemy number one.That's like literally gonna be the title of my memoir. that's so much I think about David Foster, and what he has done to those women. But I just think that it's so deeply relatable [00:44:00] and that is why I really like Kagan is brushing his teeth with a really strong electric toothbrush. Can you hear that? hear it. by the way, when I got a little snippy with Kagan earlier is cuz he started playing a super loud Instagram story feet away from where I'm recording this podcast and now it's just buzz buzz booze. it's, it's time to get that credit card. Time for cardlaunch spending.I have a software on here where you can't hear background noises. So I'm not just being a bitch for no reason. It's my disclaimer. he literally too, he just like walks in, brushes lo, sees me like laugh, like joking about it kind of seriously, and just like, you know, doesn't care. Okay. We know who wears the pants in this relationship.Anyway, back to the topic at hand. I think that it's so important to know that no matter what level of success or wealth or marriage you achieve and relationship kids, whatever, you are always going to have people around you who have the capacity, if you are embracing the dark side of your personality [00:45:00] to feel insecure and not good about yourself. Mm-hmm. financial insecurity is possible at so many levels of financial success. Yep. so these girls have a, venture fund together. Mm-hmm. I think that Aren't they like on the board at Bumble or something? Like they're, they're like creative leads on like so many different brands and sit on boards and are by all means, like big name celebrities.yes. And I will say too, there's like a lot of real wisdom happening on that podcast. Like Erin's talking and they had this conversation where Sarah was like, your show got picked up by Netflix. Like, why aren't you blasting this more? Why aren't you all like talking about this on Instagram more?And Erin's like, because if it's successful, people will know about it. I don't have to tell them about it. right, right, and I think there's like some real lessons in like, show don't tell. you know, let your success be your noise. Yeah, like I think that there's some real wisdom happening and the back and forth Chandler is So you and me.It is. So you and me. [00:46:00] I am Sarah. You are Erin. and it is like so eerie to listen. Like Sarah at one point was like saying how she doesn't understand why when she posts a thirst strap, she'll get like hate comments that are like, you're so vain. Whereas if someone with like a more, you know, like a curvier body, posts a thirst strap.I remember this. women get like so many compliments and Erin had to like break it down for her like she was in the first grade. Why? yes, Sarah, like these women have never had their bodies celebrated publicly. So there's a reason why this conversation is happening Right, right. the back and forth, it's just good.The It's so good good girls, Right. into them. okay. I also wanna plug another, a huge podcast that I don't, I don't think it even matters that we're like, that people might listen to them, who might listen to our podcast because they're on another level. But I think Smartless has a similar like, fascinating angle for me because it's [00:47:00] also three big celebrities.It's, will Arnette, Jason Bateman and Sean Hayes. And they're all like really great friends and it is just so interesting to me to hear the inner workings of like celebrities being friends with each other and hey, like, you know, the other night we were at dinner at, Larry David's house and blah, blah blah.Um, and it's just, it's on another level, but I find it to be so fun. And they also have like a Netflix special where they like went on tour and I just think like their dynamics. Are just amazing. And I think, there's different levels of success between the three of them, but I think they, like, they neg each other, but then they also celebrate each other and yeah.I feel like Smartless is just another excellent podcast.Yeah, I mean, I now people are never going to listen to this podcast again. We have officially lost our listeners and we probably should. No, I'm justI don't. I think also Laura, like, people who listen to podcasts listen to like 18 at a time, you know, no one's just like listening to only one podcast.No, it's true. And honestly, I find myself [00:48:00] like, even though I'm such an avid consumer of content, and I constantly have AirPods in, I cannot even walk across the room without picking a podcast. First. I find myself like, not having something to listen to frequently. Yeah. so many hours in the day to fill with content.speaking of the Smartless documentary, which I highly recommend to anyone on Netflix who wants like some easy watching, Jason Bateman clearly has some type of like orthorexia like eating, disordered eating situationbecause he is constantly talking about food and how much other people are eating and making fun of them.So I think that's like very interesting to see play out in a man. You know, I think that's like something as women we're used to encountering, you know, with, with either within ourselves or like, you know, with other women. but I think it's very interesting to see it with a man. So that's one thing on a more serious note, and then, Will Ette is I think one of the funniest people ever.he was telling this story. They were all talking about how great Brad Pitt is, right? And Will Arnette was like [00:49:00] saying that, Basically they read this event or party or something where Brad Pitt was, and they were talking about how he's just like the most normal guy, you know, just from Missouri.We have mixed thoughts on Brad Pitt, but I do believe,you know, that if you were to encounter him, he's a, like a very nice guy despitehaving. affable.Maybe having, you know, a shadow side. But anyways, will Arnett, speaks about how, Brad Pitt came up to him and said, Hey man, I watched every episode of your show.I loved it. And like, you did such a great job. And then he gave him like a big hug. And Will Arnett said that he, was like, oh yeah, like, thank you so much, and that he kind of like walked down the hallway and then just like found a room and then quickly slid down the wall because he was just like so overcome with like Brad Pitt, you know, celebrating him.And then without even missing a beat, Jason Bateman goes, that's so great. Who do you think he thought you were?That is hilarious.Isn't thatso, I mean, and That's just like a little snippet of the way that they like neg each other without even like, they don't even skip a beat and they're just constantly, giving each other a hardtime. And I [00:50:00] think that's to earth. I like it. Yeah. think he thought you were? Yeah, I need to listen to more of that podcast. trying to listen to like smarter podcasts right now and less like Total Dribble. Well, I'll say it's not that smart. it's just them like having, like chatsthis is the part where we talked shit on Spotless. just saying it's not like, you know, Sam Harris.Yeah. Who I actually have new issues with, but I'll talk to you about that me Okay time for me to, once again revoke my 5 99 a month. It's something I've done 20 times at least.I love Sam Harris. I just think he's fundamentally mentally misguided on certain really important topics, not political. So before anyone calls me out for Like what? to do with politics. psychedelics it's not something I'm, I wanna talk about publicly quite yet. Okay. Well we will wait till you're ready. So that, bless a day.Okay, Chandler, well, thank you so much for getting up at 8:00 AM in order to record this podcast on camera before you go into your 14 hour workday, like, oh my gosh, the devil works hard, but Chandler Bledso works harder. Thank you.[00:51:00] um, you're welcome for, being here today with this podcast, with you hosting.appreciate you. Thank you so much. So everyone, we really need your help. Chandler and I are idiots in a major way and so much that we have done a podcast for three years without doing calls to action, Mm-hmm. at the beginning and end, which is apparently really important. For someone who works in marketing, I kind of missed that one.The only time we ever did it was when we were like offering people money in the form of a giveaway.
