The United States fertility rate just hit 1.599 — that's an all-time low. We are not replacing ourselves. An entire civilization is opting out of its own future. And everyone wants to talk about tax credits and housing costs. Nobody wants to talk about what we spent 40 years putting on television in your living room. Right? Because if you wanted to design a curriculum that would teach an entire generation to distrust marriage, resent family, and view commitment as a trap — you couldn't have done a better job than prime-time television between 1987 and 2020. But here's what's interesting — the television wasn't the beginning. It was the delivery mechanism. The idea came from somewhere else entirely. And they were very, very clear about what they were doing.SPONSOR: Alliance Defending FreedomAlliance Defending Freedom is representing Daniel Grand, an Orthodox Jew whose Ohio city demanded a government permit before he could host a small prayer meeting in his own home.

In the Haute Seat, our unforgettable conversation with Katie Ginella delivers everything Bravo fans could ask for: shocking Housewives revelations, celebrity encounters, fashion critiques, and some of the funniest moments we've had in the studio. We kick things off diving into Katie's obsession with RuPaul and the impact that RuPaul's Drag Race has had on generations of people who simply wanted to feel accepted. We swap stories about attending the very first RuPaul's Drag Race premiere party, where RuPaul himself was hilariously denied entry because he wasn't in drag and had forgotten his ID. From Lady Bunny to backstage moments at Drag Race, Katie gushes over the icon who changed the world for millions. Naturally, the conversation spirals into pop culture, with Madonna's legendary habit of showing up hours late to concerts, George Michael becoming Katie's nine-year-old son's newest obsession, and Katie sharing details about her new podcast, Bravo's Most Wanted, which she launched after initially developing a different show with Monica Garcia from Salt Lake City before teaming up with Jamie Rice. We also reveal that years before Modern Family, Bravo passed on our own pilot, Designer Family, because executives didn't believe audiences were ready to watch two gay men raising a teenage daughter in Beverly Hills. Looking back now, it feels unbelievable. Katie gets candid about how reality television affected her children, revealing that her daughter received death threats after being targeted online and that filming RHOC took an emotional toll on the entire family. We also get the inside scoop on Kylie auditioning for Love Island and whether Katie's kids would ever join a “Next Gen OC.” Then comes one of the biggest bombshells of the episode: we reveal that we were among the very first people to witness the beginnings of Scandoval while filming Scheana Shay's wedding in Cancun. We recount seeing Tom Schwartz kiss Raquel Leviss on camera before later spotting Tom Sandoval kissing her off camera—long before the scandal exploded across the Bravo universe. Katie is left absolutely stunned by the story. The Housewives tea continues as Katie opens up about her biggest regrets from Orange County, admitting that she wishes she had stood up for herself more instead of trying to keep the peace. She addresses misconceptions that she is a liar, talks about the difference between “show friends” and “real friends,” and explains why she believes much of modern reality television has become performative. The mood shifts when SnowWhite90210 finally returns from the groomer and instantly steals the spotlight. Between puppy talk, frozen dog sperm, and plans for Mochi's future puppies, things take a hilariously unexpected turn. Katie also opens up about one of the most emotional chapters of her life: being adopted from Korea as a baby. She shares her complicated feelings about eventually meeting her birth mother, revealing that she simply wants to thank the woman who gave her a chance at the life she has today. We discuss identity, belonging, and the deep love Katie found with her husband Matt after surviving an allegedly abusive first marriage. As we head into Runway Rundown, Katie weighs in on the latest RHOC cast photos, revealing her favorite looks from Shannon Beador, Tamra Judge, and Vicki Gunvalson while hilariously critiquing the gowns worn by Emily Simpson, Gina Kirschenheiter, Jen Pedranti, and newcomer Carmella GarciaPol' gives his expert couture opinions, breaking down why quality and custom tailoring matter at every age. Throughout the episode, Katie remains refreshingly honest about the realities of Housewives fame, the friendships she misses, the betrayals she still struggles with, and whether she would ever return to RHOC. Between RuPaul, Madonna, Ariana Madix, Scheana Shay, Tom Sandoval, Raquel Leviss, Sutton Stracke, Vicki Gunvalson, and SnowWhite90210, the Haute Seat is packed with unforgettable moments and enough Bravo tea to keep fans talking until her Armenian coffee reading.

Today's episode is a really special one because Ali is sitting down with three of her favorite people in the world: Helen, Aaron, and Blake—the real-life family behind her “Work of ART” children's book, Beautiful Bird.If you've read the book, then you already know a little bit about Jack Bird, the incredible boy at the center of the story. And today, you're going to hear the real origin story. This is a conversation about love, friendship, family building, and creating a family that looks different than what many of us grew up seeing—but is every bit as beautiful. Helen always knew she wanted to be a mom, and as a solo mom by choice, she embarked on a journey to build her family with the help of her dear friend Aaron. At the time, Aaron was building a life with his partner, Blake, and together, the three of them created a beautiful, intentional village around Jack from the very beginning.Ali, Helen, Blake and Aaron talk about fertility treatments, donor conception, LGBTQ+ family building, and what it means to redefine family in a way that puts love, honesty, and a child's well-being first. They also talk about one of the most difficult chapters of their journey: Jack's unexpected 33-day stay in the NICU after he was born, and how that experience shaped all of them as parents and as a family. Most of all, this is a story about showing up for one another. It's about friendship becoming family, about creating your own blueprint, and about the many different ways people can build a loving home.Snag a copy of Beautiful Bird for just $15 here: https://www.infertileafgroup.com/booksEPISODE SPONSORS: THE WORK OF ART BOOK SERIESAli's Children's Book Series about IVF, IUI and Family Building Through Assisted Reproductive Technology https://www.infertileafgroup.com/booksThe 3-book bundle is now just $49 (normally $79)!The latest book in the Work of ART series, “You Are a Work of ART," is for every kiddo born through ART -- and the people who love them.PHERDALIG: @pherdal_sciencePherDal is the world's first and only FDA-cleared, sterile, at-home insemination kit designed to help people build their families in the comfort of home.

Los Angeles mayoral candidate and Los Angeles City Council member Nithya Raman is acutely aware of what's at stake as local Hollywood production craters — 42,000 jobs lost over two years between 2022 and 2024, shoot days down 50 percent below the five-year average. Many of her constituents in District 4, which stretches from the San Fernando Valley to the Santa Monica Mountains, work in the industry — and her husband, Vali Chandrasekaran, is a longtime writer and producer, with credits on television comedies like Modern Family, 30 Rock and Netflix's The Four Seasons.

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.

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.

I am SO excited for you to hear this birth story with my Calm Labor Confident Birth Course student, Linda Kelly. Linda has been part of the Labor Nurse Mama community since 2021. She joined the Calm Labor Confident Birth course after her first birth that left her feeling like it just happened to her - no knowledge, no voice, no power. Fast forward to baby number two, and Linda walked into that hospital armed with her birth plan, her snacks, her AirPods in, Modern Family queued up, and absolutely zero tolerance for being told what to do. She went from a traumatic, unplanned induction the first time around to bouncing on the ball, eating her favorite foods, requesting an experienced provider to break her waters, and pushing her baby out in 20 minutes.And now? She's 30 weeks pregnant with baby number three!

We're heading back to 2010. In this episode, we draft the best movies, music, and TV shows from a year that quietly delivered some all-time favorites. On the movie side, we're debating heavy hitters like The Fighter, The Social Network, and The Town. For TV, it's a battle between breakout hits like Community, Modern Family, and LOST. And when it comes to music, we're stacking our rosters with more pop than usual, inlcuding Taylor Swift, Katy Perry, Bruno Mars, and Adele. Expect some steals, a few questionable reaches, and plenty of nostalgia as we build our ultimate 2010 lineups.

Modern Family: "Connection Lost"Five years before TV was forced to do Zoom episodes, Modern Family had their own take -- an entire story told through one Macbook screen with Apple apps like FaceTime and iMessage!

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.
