Dear Sugars

This episode was originally published on March 3, 2017. "Whatever"— that's how the actress Maria Bello describes her sexual orientation. Her "love who you love" attitude toward sexuality, regardless of gender, is often referred to as fluidity. Maria joins the Sugars this week to discuss a couple of letters having to do with the confusion and complications that can accompany a shift in one's sexual preferences and partnerships. She wrote about the evolution of her own family structure in her 2013 Modern Love column for The New York Times, "Coming Out As a Modern Family," which she later turned into the book, "Whatever...Love is Love: Questioning the Labels We Give Ourselves."

99% of the Evangelical Christian world gets this wrong, and it's absolutely destroying our families. We've fallen into the trap of thinking of the family in secular terms, instead of looking at the Bible and asking what God's vision was for the family, since HE created it.

It's the year 2026, and while the LGBTQ community is under attack politically and socially, we remain blessed when it comes to queer representation on our TV screens – at least for the time being. Even 20 years ago, we couldn't have conceived of how accepting the small screen would become, with gays, lesbians, bi, and trans folx appearing not only in series created specifically for them, but hes, shes, theys and thems being included as featured characters in mainstream hit series.

Either way, join the Great Pop Culture Debate for its 2026 Pride Special as we attempt to name the best LGBTQ TV Series, at least up until 2026.TV shows discussed: Schitt's Creek, Heated Rivalry, Queer as Folk (2000), Modern Family, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy, The L Word, Trixie Motel, RuPaul's Drag Race, Torchwood, Heartstopper, Pose, Will & Grace, The Real World, Angels in America, Looking Join host Eric Rezsnyak and GPCD panelists Karissa Kloss, Kevin Dillon, and Victor Manibo as they discuss and debate 16 of the most queer-affirming television series of all time.For the warm-up to this episode, in which we discuss additional queer TV shows that didn't make the bracket, become a Patreon supporter of the podcast today.

Modern life is fraying us. But we can learn how to come back to ourselves. In this thoughtful and deeply relatable episode Kate welcomes back educator, social worker, author, and speaker Stephanie Malia Krauss to explore why so many parents, teachers, carers, and children feel overwhelmed, exhausted, and disconnected. Drawing from her book How We Thrive: Caring for Kids and Ourselves in a Changing World, Stephanie explains how chronic busyness, overstimulation, technology, anxiety, and modern pressures pull families away from regulation, connection, and truly human living. Together, Kate and Stephanie unpack how self-regulation develops, why children and young adults are still learning these skills well into their twenties, how dysregulation can be mistaken for “bad behaviour,” and why parents need practical tools like going “below calm,” using gentle cues, listening instead of fixing, and recognizing their own stress signals.  Listen For6:26 Why Does Modern Family Life Feel So Overwhelming?11:15 What Is Self-Regulation and Why Is It Still Developing Until the Mid-20s?19:20 How Can Parents Calm Themselves When a Child Is Dysregulated?28:11 Is Your Child's Behaviour Actually a Discipline Issue or a Dysregulation Issue?41:17 Could the Personality Trait You Dislike Actually Be Chronic Dysregulation?  Leave a rating/review for this podcast with one clickConnect with guest: Stephanie Malia KraussLinkedIn | Website | YouTube | Instagram | Book: How We Thrive Contact Kate:Email | Website | Kate's Book on Amazon | LinkedIn | Facebook | X

In so many ways, television and movies can be unrealistic. Some things fly under the radar most of the time!  In this episode of Financial Clarity for Doctors, hosts Rachelle Vanderzanden and Corey Janoff walk through some examples of shows with characters living inflated lives.  Does it make sense given their profession and age?  Probably not.  They often have nicer homes and nicer things and a lot more free time than their counterparts in real life. Shows featuring medical professionals living inflated lifestyles include: Shrinking is a great example! Jimmy is a Cognitive Behavioral Therapist in Southern California in a beautiful home and he barely seems to work.  How? Shows featuring trainees seem to do a better job (sometimes). The Pitt, Grey's Anatomy, ER – all seemed to discuss at one point or other the struggle to make ends meet as an Intern, Resident, or Fellow. Many classic sitcoms feature regular people with a variety of jobs in absolutely gorgeous homes in California. Modern Family and Full House are great examples.  Or a rent-controlled apartment in New York! “Keeping up with the Jones” is hard enough.  Do not try to keep up with their counterparts on television!  You never know the resources people may have, but lifestyle and income alone rarely match up on screen.

A Difficult Conversation About Surrogacy, IVF, and Parenthood

In this episode of The Winston Marshall Show, I sit down with children's rights activist and author Katie Faust to explore one of the most contentious debates of our time: what do children actually need to thrive?Faust argues that modern conversations around family, marriage, and reproduction have become overwhelmingly focused on adult desires while the rights and wellbeing of children are increasingly ignored. Drawing on years of work with families and young people, she makes the case that children are uniquely shaped by their biological mother and father, and that removing either comes with real, measurable consequences.We examine the impact of divorce, fatherlessness, and non-traditional family structures, including same-sex parenting, surrogacy, and sperm and egg donation. Faust outlines her “children's rights” framework, arguing that identity, safety, and stability are deeply connected to biological parenthood and that modern family law has flattened those distinctions.The conversation also tackles the ethics of IVF and surrogacy, including the commodification of reproduction, the separation of biological and birth parents, and the long-term psychological effects on children. We debate whether the desire for more births in a time of demographic decline justifies these technologies, or whether they risk creating new harms.Finally, Faust shares her personal journey from growing up in an unconventional family to becoming a leading voice in this space and explains why she believes society must re-centre the child in every discussion about family.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Our show is independently supported by you.

In this episode of the Capital Raiser Show, host Richard C. Wilson sits down with Sahil Nandwani for a candid conversation on what it really looks like to operate inside a modern family office. Sahil shares insights from managing capital globally through his multifamily office, with perspectives shaped by work across real estate, lending, governance, portfolio construction, and next-generation wealth strategy. The discussion goes beyond surface-level talking points and gets into what sophisticated families actually care about when evaluating deals, building trust, and selecting long-term partners. Richard and Sahil explore the real-world dynamics of family office investing, including why relationships often matter more than the deal itself, how niche expertise builds instant credibility, and why repeated in-person interactions are often required before capital gets deployed. Sahil also explains how next-gen investors think differently, what older generations value in relationship-building, and why family governance is one of the most overlooked topics in wealth planning. The conversation also covers thought leadership, underwriting sponsors, hard-asset lending, using AI for due diligence, and how families can better prepare younger generations to understand wealth creation before wealth transfer. This is a strong episode for anyone looking to better understand how family offices think, how trust is built over time, and how global wealthy families evaluate opportunities, partners, and long-term strategy. In this episode, you'll hear about: How a modern multifamily office evaluates deals and partners Why cultural fit and trust often outweigh headline returns What sophisticated investors listen for in conversations and pitches The difference between next-gen and older-generation family office dynamics Why family governance is critical to long-term wealth continuity How to use thought leadership to attract the right investors Why hard assets and structured lending remain attractive to many families How AI is speeding up due diligence and investor research What families should teach the next generation about wealth creation and philanthropy If you are raising capital, building relationships with family offices, or formalizing your own family office structure, this episode offers practical insight into global deals, next-gen wealth, and the decision-making mindset behind sophisticated family capital.

Alex Wyse joins the show for a deep dive into the relentless "compulsion to create" that has fueled his journey from the suburbs of Cleveland to the Broadway stage and the director's chair. He shares a hilarious story about the childhood soccer match where he opted to fake a faint rather than kick a ball, a clear sign that his true calling was always the theater. Alex speaks candidly about the "fairy tale" of a Broadway debut, reflecting on how the early closing of Lysistrata Jones felt like a personal failure and how that heartbreak eventually taught him to diversify his creative life to survive the industry's inevitable highs and lows. The conversation explores the "therapy" of the creative process, from the unapologetic queer joy of his digital series Indoor Boys to the sci-fi musical he is currently developing. Alex discusses the unique challenge of his role in Marcel on the Train, a play that uses silence and mime to tell the harrowing true story of Marcel Marceau's work saving Jewish children during World War II. By the end of the episode, it is clear that Alex is a master of "spinning plates," proving that the best way to handle the pain of waiting for an audition is to simply go out and make something yourself. Alex Wyse is an actor, writer, director, and producer whose Broadway credits include Waitress, Spring Awakening, and Lysistrata Jones. He is the co-creator and star of the Emmy-winning digital series Indoor Boys and has appeared on television in The Bold and the Beautiful, Marvel's Iron Fist, and Modern Family.
