Puerto Rico's beaches are an integral part of life on the island, and by law, they're one of the few places that are truly public. In practice, the sandy stretch of land where the water meets the shore is one of the island's most contested spaces.Today we're featuring an episode of the podcast La Brega from WNYC Studios and Futuro Studios, a show about Puerto Rico and the Puerto Rican experience. On the island, a legal definition dating back to the Spanish colonial period dictates what counts as a beach. But climate change, an influx of new residents and a real estate boom are all threatening legal public access to some of Puerto Rico's most cherished spaces. The debate all comes down to one question: what counts as a beach?You can listen to the rest of La Brega (in English and Spanish) here.

The "Soul to Sole" Episode," where writer/solo performer Mark Pagan gives us the scoop on all his upcoming projects...and how the fleeting touch of one moisturized finger on a love-starved eyelid can mean EVERYTHING. Plus, a (kinda) all-new story about being an "invisible woman" who is more likely to be eaten by a tiger than ever again feeling the caress of another lover—"Man-O-Pause." See a theme here? Haha, (or, should I say, jaja)!

In season 2 we explored why we're scared of ambitious women, and talked to our co-producer Sam and a teacher about the roots of this problem. It was an episode which really resonated with so many women who listen to this show and a dilemma we just had to revisit. Mark Pagan has talked about his mixed attitudes to dating ambitious women on his own podcast Other Men Need Help. Mark finds ambitious women attractive but is also threatened by them, this being a dynamic which isn't all that rare, and one we delve into more with him, trying to figure out the personal and wider social reasons behind this paradox.Guest:Mark Pagan, host of the podcast Other Men Need Help https://othermenneedhelp.com/Host and producer:Nas aka Nastaran Tavakoli-FarCo-host:Jonathan FreemanCo-producers:Sam Baker and Jonathan Blackwell Related links:The Gender Knot t-shirts are now available hereOther Men Need Help's episode Manual Men https://othermenneedhelp.com/season-1/episode-4-manual-menOther Men Need Help are looking for stories for their next season, get in touch at othermenneedhelp@gmail.com - they are looking for men partnered with significantly younger people, men who can talk about financial insecurities related to partners, men with significant others who are more sexually experiences, men who are bald/balding and men up for sharing something about their appearance they privately want to change or hide.

We’re hitting the road for the summer– but before we do, we’re taking you on a ride. First, we go on an imaginary cab ride. Then, we get to the bottom of Brooklyn’s pothole problem. Next, we go deep underground to find out what’s happening with the New York City Subway. And finally, we head out west, and hit some turbulence on the way back. If you don’t know where you’re going, any road will get you there. And getting there is half the fun in Brooklyn, USA. ••• Brooklyn, USA is produced by Sachar Mathias and Emily Boghossian. "Rideshare Ride Along" was produced by Josh Rollin, written and directed by Calvin Kasulke, and was performed by Utkarsh Rajawat, Connor Carson, Greg Schultz, Luz Ozuna, Romana Sow-tus, and Nell Muldoon. Thanks to Mark Pagan for giving us yet another reason to never ride the subway. Mark hosts a podcast called Other Men Need Help and runs our sister network, Brooklyn Free Speech Radio– check them out. Thanks to Brian Vines for hitting those potholes so we didn’t have to.

The #MeToo movement has changed not only the workplace, but also the dating scene. Getting someone too many drinks on a date, to get a few more kisses out of it is not right. Buying someone a drink doesn’t give you permission to take them home, and seeing a woman with a pronounced cleavage is not a green light for anything. Consent is the only green or red light you should get. Today’s episode is dedicated to teach you and me about consent. Featuring: Matty Konrath, a 30-something year old woman living in NYC, who went to a curly hair salon in the neighborhood of Gramercy in Manhattan, and did not get the best haircut… or experience. Domina Franco, a sex educator, coach and writer who has been studying human sexuality for over 20 years. For the male perspective we talked with Mark Pagan, who, for personal curiosity, has been studying masculinity for a while and produces the awarded podcast: Other Men Need Help. We also talked to Jamie Ansley and Courtney Cleman from The V Club. Courtney Cleman is a New York City based sex + relationship expert. She co-founded The V Club in New York City to help women and men break down the mental barriers that prevent them from having the love life they desire. Jamie Anslie is a drama therapist. She teaches group and private classes and also leads the Talk Love Chat support group. The V Club is a space that offers masterclasses that teach women and men everything they need to know about dating, love and relationships to create the love life of their dreams. It currently offers 5 types of classes: How to Get a Second Date, Ladies Come First, Men by Design, The Mature Woman’s Guide to Sexual Health and Relationships and Talk Love: Chat Group. Your host and producer is Vanessa Valerio. Our music on this episode is the song “Colorless” by Twintapes. Today’s episode is sponsored by TukFab, a tuk tuk design and fabrication company.

Mark Pagán (RISK!) has an unexpected reaction at the least passionate place in NYC.

Plus, Robin and Alex discuss their New Year's Resolutions, and Morgan shares some of her original jokes and what she would call the comedy tour if she and Robin went on the road.

Charles Busch, Mark Pagan and Jess Lombardo share stories of starting with a bang.

When two people decide to form an union of some kind it can be challenging to make things work smoothly, because of the way that both people were raised, because of their background or even their language… However in today’s dating scene language and culture are not the only barriers that singles are facing, texting, corporal language and online dating are some of the things that we have to deal with and overcome when trying to effectively communicate in this modern age. On this episode Vanessa talks to Mark Pagan, a storyteller, multimedia artist and fellow Latino, about how the mix of the Latin fire with the pragmatic American style, make an excellent balance.   Stories by:  Michele Carlo.
