Before Sex and the City became a cultural phenomenon, Candace Bushnell was writing about something she saw happening all around her: ambitious, successful single women taking over New York City. In this episode of Superwomen, Candace joins Rebecca to revisit the column that started it all, the real-life stories behind Sex and the City, and what it was like watching her work become part of the culture. But a lot has changed since the '90s… and a lot hasn't. Candace shares what she thinks about dating today, why successful women are still struggling to find great partners, and why women no longer have an “expiration date.” She also opens up about the pursuit of creative success, the rejection that comes with it, and why not everything you create is going to work. Plus, Candace reveals the truth about the real Mr. Big, and why every woman might be better off becoming her own.

In a plan that's now being echoed by the Trump administration, New York City has helped close to 400,000 public school students and their families pay for college by creating savings accounts, which include start-up seed money. Joining NY1's Errol Louis to discuss the program was City Council Speaker Julie Menin, who helped launch NYC Kids RISE in 2015 when she was the city's Consumer Affairs Commissioner. In their conversation, Menin also reflected on her career and her path into politics, including her work rebuilding Lower Manhattan after the Sept. 11 attacks and her push to release long-withheld 9/11 files. She also outlined her responsibilities as council speaker and her current priorities, including an oversight hearing on Legionnaires' disease; a proposed ban on horse-drawn carriages; and the creation of an office dedicated to insurance accountability.

How do you lead through the ultimate crisis while staying true to yourself? In this episode of Women of Color Rise, I speak with Dr. Meisha Porter—lifelong educator and former NYC Schools Chancellor. Meisha was the first Black woman to lead the nation's largest school district, navigating the unprecedented challenges of COVID-19 and a mayoral transition. A proud Black woman and "nurturer of community," Meisha shares the raw truth about the costs of high-level leadership and why "having it all" is a myth. She shares lessons for rising leaders: •Reject the "Have It All" myth. Success without rest leads to burnout. You must pour back into yourself to stay in the game. •Lead with one version of you. Authenticity is a superpower. Whether on a keynote stage or in the grocery store, Meisha was the same Meisha. •Don't read the comments. Not everyone will like your decisions. Trust your integrity and the love of those who truly know you. •Practice radical self-care. As Audre Lordes shared, self-care is an act of political warfare. Do something selfishly for yourself today. Through her journey, Meisha reminds us that the most important person to like and love you is you.

It's Thursday and that means a 2 Minute Financial Drill! Now that we're slowly creeping into the fall and the pending restart of the HALO Academy in a new format (more on that later) keep an eye out for these. This one is clipped from Pete Moore's panel with Brian Smith at Piper Sandler at this past Athletech News ATN Summit in NYC. ● PureGym US, Crunch area developers, and Planet Fitness area developers are the three strategic buyers actively circling independent clubs right now. ● These buyers are contractually obligated, through franchise development milestones, to open in a market whether or not an independent operator agrees to sell. ● Irrational development, i.e. overclubbing a market, is described as the biggest risk to profitability for independent operators and investors alike. ● If a strategic buyer reaches out, engaging is recommended over ignoring the outreach, since they will build around an operator who doesn't transact.

David Crowley beat Francesca Hong by half a point. Peggy Flanagan won Minnesota by 20. Same night, opposite answers about where the party is going.Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley took the Wisconsin Democratic gubernatorial primary over democratic socialist state Rep. Francesca Hong in a nail biter that broke past 2 a.m. Brian had been telling anyone who would listen that Crowley was winning while prediction markets had Hong at 96 percent, and he takes the victory lap. His read on why: no AOC, no Bernie, no Warren, no signature policy that broke through, and a cancel Thanksgiving clip nobody could unsee. Glennis brings in the other variable, Megan Romer, one of the DSA's two national chairs, whose New Yorker Radio Hour sit down with David Remnick got clipped into oblivion days before Wisconsin voted. Also: five of nine Milwaukee flash drives showed up at central count carrying audit logs instead of results, and Steve Kornacki had to fill 90 minutes of live NBC air with nothing.Then the rest of the board. Peggy Flanagan beat Angie Craig by roughly 20 points in Minnesota, and Brian argues that race teaches 2028 more than Wisconsin does. Luke Bronin ended John Larson's 28 year run in Connecticut's 1st, the seventh House incumbent to lose after actually running, five of them over 70. South Carolina's special Senate primary heads to an August 25 runoff between Rep. Ralph Norman and appointed Sen. Darline Graham. Mike Lindell lost Minnesota's Republican gubernatorial primary to House Speaker Lisa Demuth and would not concede. David Crowley is your Oath Candidate of the Week, and he is starting from zero with a general election against Rep. Tom Tiffany in November.Plus AOC telling Jonathan Karl on ABC's This Week that "Woke 1 was crazy," and the real question underneath it: can somebody who was loud during Woke 1 be the 2028 nominee? Brian says the jury is out. Glennis says yes and names her candidate. Then the economy, where July CPI landed at 3.4 percent, the July jobs report came in at negative 23,000 against expectations near 85,000 with another 103,000 knocked off May and June, and workers' share of national income sits at its lowest point since tracking began in 1947. Also this week for Clickbait or Double-Click: Trump slipping off Air Force One into an airport catering truck in Ankara while the press flew the decoy, Mamdani backing Tiffany Cabán's Delivery Protection Act to force Amazon to directly employ its delivery drivers, and the New York Times piece on Flock cameras that has liberals and conservatives mad at the same thing.Then a Good Vibe Goodbye where a guy on the Brooklyn Museum steps asks Mamdani to find him a date and the mayor's office answers with a borough by borough summer guide for anyone looking for cheap and cheerful dates in NYC.UPDATE: This episode was recorded Wednesday morning, August 12, 2026, while Wisconsin votes were still being counted. Since recording, the Associated Press and Decision Desk HQ officially called the race for David Crowley, who secured the nomination with 39.8% of the vote compared to Francesca Hong's 39.4%.New episodes of Vibes Only are available for download first thing every Thursday morning!

This week on Dem Vinyl Boyz, we head straight into the grimy clubs of 1970s New York City and drop the needle on one of the most important punk rock albums ever recorded: the Ramones’ self-titled debut, Ramones. Released in 1976, Ramones was fast, loud, stripped down, and completely different from the elaborate progressive rock and polished arena rock dominating much of the era. Joey Ramone, Johnny Ramone, Dee Dee Ramone, and Tommy Ramone took rock and roll back to its most basic ingredients: distorted guitars, pounding drums, unforgettable hooks, and songs that often came and went before you had time to catch your breath. The album explodes out of the gate with “Blitzkrieg Bop” and its legendary “Hey! Ho! Let’s Go!” chant before tearing through tracks like “Beat on the Brat,” “Judy Is a Punk,” “I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend,” and “53rd & 3rd.” The songs were funny, rebellious, strange, catchy, and unapologetically raw. Although Ramones wasn't a massive commercial success when it was originally released, its influence became enormous. The album helped establish the blueprint for punk rock and inspired countless musicians in America and abroad. Its impact can be heard in everything from hardcore and alternative rock to grunge and the pop-punk explosion that arrived decades later. We’ll also dive into the Ramones’ connection to New York’s legendary CBGB scene, their leather-jacket-and-ripped-jeans image, the simplicity that made Johnny Ramone’s guitar playing so influential, and how four guys pretending to be brothers helped change the direction of rock music. Join Dem Vinyl Boyz as we spin Ramones, an album that proved you didn't need ten-minute guitar solos or million-dollar production to make history. Sometimes all you need is three chords, two minutes, a leather jacket, and a loud enough amplifier. Hey! Ho! Let’s Go!

In this episode, we welcome back perinatal art therapist Sharon Itkoff Nacache, who joins us 3 years after her first appearance to share her incredible ongoing work with caregivers. Sharon discusses her partnership with the Whitney Museum and the NYC public hospital system, where she facilitates burnout prevention and wellness workshops for healthcare workers. She also introduces her new participatory perinatal picture book, The Days Before I Met You, which serves as a creative workbook to help expecting parents process the ambivalence of their life transition and reclaim an internal locus of control.The conversation dives deeply into the healing power of returning to your "artist self" and tapping into the replenishing, kinesthetic nature of a creative flow state. Sharon and Sneha contrast the releasing process of making art with today's passive "consumption culture" and the exhausting cycle of doomscrolling. Sharon offers tangible strategies for finding balance, sharing the fascinating neuroaesthetic finding that just two minutes of art engagement can lower heart rate and cortisol levels. She encourages listeners to step away from the algorithm, use timers, and prioritize offline rest, even if it's just looking at a photography book before bed.Finally, the episode unpacks the "Superwoman syndrome", the post-feminist fallacy that pressures high-achieving women and mothers to perfectly manage every role despite a lack of systemic support. Sharon explains that when the demand continuously exceeds our inner resources, mindless screen time often feels like our only accessible act of rebellion. Together, they emphasize the vital importance of practicing self-compassion, accepting manageable messes, and setting boundaries. Tune in to learn why we must embrace the mantra "just because I can, doesn't mean I should," and find out how to connect with Sharon at Co-Create Art Therapy.Connect with her: cocreatearttherapy.comCheck out her past episode here: “Practicing Imperfection: Art Therapy in the Birth World”Click here and use your exclusive 20% listener discount (Code: Fit20) to enroll in Master Your Pelvic Floor, our signature self-paced course that will change the way you understand and care for your body.

Peter Zaitzeff has done nearly $5 billion in NYC sales, over 1,000 transactions, more than $300 million in the last year alone. He watches the Olshan Report every week like a bible. And here's the math he's running: Manhattan has roughly 4,000 units of inventory right now. The pipeline through the end of 2027 delivers only about 1,900 more. The market absorbs 600 per quarter. Do the math, and he's saying: zero inventory by 2027. "It's not drinks and gifts. It's showing up with the weekly report for 10 years. Then they let you sell the $60 million apartment." Noah Rosenblatt and John Walkup sit down with Peter Zaitzeff, top-producing broker at Serhant. In 25 minutes he walks through the state of the NYC luxury market (30+ contracts a week for 12 straight months, most consistent he's ever seen), the specific building feature driving the fastest sellouts at the highest prices, the origin story that took him from unpaid intern to selling with Ryan Serhant and Steve Witkoff, and the discipline he uses to keep operating at that level day after day. What you'll learn: The state of the luxury market. 30+ contracts a week for 12 straight months at $4M+. COVID low: 1-2 a week. Post-COVID peak: 45-55. Peter's read: this is the most consistent luxury market he's seen in 15 years. The inventory math. About 4,000 units on market today. About 1,900 new dev in the pipeline through 2027. Market absorbs 600 per quarter. Zero inventory by 2027. Smart money is buying now. The porte cochere theory. The single biggest driver of new-development sell-through velocity. 150 Charles sold out in 3 months. Greenwich Lane took years. Same buyers, same market. The difference was the porte cochere. Peter has the receipts. The post-COVID amenity shift. Cold plunge, steam, infrared sauna, gyms. Health-and-wellness amenities are now materially moving the needle on sell-out velocity. How to actually win the developer. Not drinks. Not gifts. Ten years of weekly analytics emails. Peter's $60M downtown record came after nearly a decade of proving himself with rentals and smaller sales for that same client. The offering-plan hack that launched his career. As an unpaid intern, Peter memorized the 150 Charles offering plan front to back: 91 units, 80 unique floor plans, every square footage and view angle. That was how he earned a seat on showings with Leonard Steinberg and Rafael De Niro. The advice that separates a top broker from a great one. "You have to know more than I know. That's where you create value." If you're building a career or a team, this is the frame. The running-as-endurance metaphor. Peter is an ultra-marathoner. His take on being a broker: "We're running a marathon every day and we don't know where the 23rd mile is." Get up. Do the three minutes. The next 30 follow.

Send us Fan MailIn this episode of Street Life, we had the incredible opportunity to speak with Meryl Meisler, a New York-based photographer whose work spans several decades, capturing the vibrant life of New York City from the 1970s to the present day. Meryl shared her journey into photography, which was inspired by her father's passion for capturing family moments and a transformative experience at a Diane Arbus retrospective.We discussed her early work, including photographing Times Square during its gritty days and her experiences with street photography on the subway. Meryl's unique perspective on documenting joy and confidence in her subjects stood out, especially during a time when many photographers focused on deprivation and struggle. She emphasised the importance of community in photography, encouraging young photographers, particularly women, to find supportive groups and share their work.Meryl also reflected on her time documenting the disco era, sharing stories of her experiences in clubs like Studio 54 and the Copacabana. She highlighted the innocence and liberation of that time, contrasting it with the impact of the AIDS epidemic that followed.As we wrapped up, Meryl expressed her excitement for her current projects, including a solo show and a forthcoming book that will explore the evolution of queer-friendly nightlife from the 70s to today. Her passion for photography remains as vibrant as ever, and it was a true privilege to have her on the podcast to share her insights and experiences.Join us for this inspiring conversation that celebrates the power of photography to document life, community and joy.WEBSITE | INSTAGRAMFollow us on Instagram and leave us a review!
Your organization probably has more good ideas than you realize.The challenge is what happens next.Employees learn quickly whether an unconventional suggestion is genuinely welcome, whether failure will be treated as information or incompetence, and whether leadership is open to an outcome it did not already choose. When those answers are unclear, people protect themselves. They offer safer ideas, wait for direction or stop speaking up entirely.In this episode, Naomi Titleman Colla speaks with Fiona Stevenson about the human dynamics that cause innovation to stall. They explore why fear of taking action can be stronger than the fear of doing nothing, how leaders unintentionally become more rigid when the stakes are high, and why psychological safety must be built into the work rather than treated as a separate culture exercise.Fiona also shares a practical process for moving from a clearly defined problem to human insight, inspiration, ideas, iteration and implementation. For HR leaders, the conversation offers a clear challenge: examine whether your performance measures, reward systems and everyday leadership behaviours actually support the experimentation your organization says it wants.Guest ResourcesWebsite: fionastevenson.comOpen State (with co-founder Alyssa Kerbel): openstate.ca — bringing nervous system regulation, music, and movement into the creative processKindness at Work: kindnessatwork.com — inaugural Workplace Kindness Awards ceremony in New York City during Kindness Week (November); nominations now openLinkedIn: Connect with Fiona StevensonAbout Our GuestFiona Stevenson is CEO and founding partner of the Idea Suite, where she helps organizations turn human insight into commercially viable ideas.

Communication and relationship building are key approaches to harm reduction that focus on meeting people where they are. Both rely on shifting away from stigma and bias to create a safe, open dialogue between patient and provider that builds trust and autonomy while prioritizing safety and dignity. Clinical guidelines on how to effectively implement these principles of harm reduction to affect incremental, positive change exist, but can be difficult to translate into practice. This episode features two New York City-based nurses who are passionate about harm reduction and strive to bring its principles to all care settings. In partnership with another colleague, they developed a harm reduction tool to help providers navigate the sometimes opaque work of harm reduction in clinical spaces. Guests will introduce the tool, discuss the complexities of practicing harm reduction medicine and provide concrete strategies to integrate harm reduction into every clinical encounter.

On Tuesday's Mark Levin Show, the Iranian regime is gearing up for a prolonged showdown with President Trump by keeping their economy functioning just enough to withstand a drawn-out U.S. military campaign. As Gen. Jack Keane says, they think they have the upper hand in the Strait of Hormuz and will become more violent as the midterm elections approach. Keane says using economic levers is good but must also play the military card. But is allowing the regime to stall for time the right play? Why not arm the Iranian people and take out Iran's infrastructure, starting with Kharg Island? This is also playing into the hands of the woke-reich neo-fascist isolationists. By calling for American withdrawal now, they give aid and comfort to the enemy. And letting Iran think they have control over the Strait sends the wrong message to countries like China. What will the U.S. if the Chinese block the South China Sea? Also, why are younger people so drawn to socialism? We've abandoned the great thinkers of the not-so-distant past who explained capitalism and individual freedom: Buckley, Friedman, Sowell. Online influencers are pushing a sort of conservatism-lite, where they call for government intervention and a nationalist, populist form of common-good conservatism. It's actually socialism lite, but younger people don't know that. This is like the old Russian psyop: convince the young to ignore, even condemn, older generations. The young are told they know more than older people, they don't understand what you're doing through. Unfortunately, right now it's working. These pseudo-conservative isolationists sound a lot like Bernie Sanders, Chris Murphy, even Mamdani. Unfortunately, in this day and age, people want to be heard more than they want to learn. Then, Democratic Socialist leader Frances Gill was pressed on the consequences of getting rid of police and prisons. What would happen to rapists, she was asked. Instead of answering the question, Gill said she didn't want to talk "hypotheticals." Well, if a woman is raped, that's not hypothetical: that's real life. What Gill can't say out loud is the real reason DSAs want to eliminate police and prisons: so they can impose their own security services, loyal to their regime. Civil liberties were suspended during COVID in the name of the common good. If DSAs continue to get elected, we know what to expect. Finally, the clown show that is New York: a judge has blocked Mamdani's pied-a'-terre tax after NYC homeowners sued. Here's a guy who's never run a hot dog stand who thinks taxing rich people who provide jobs is a good idea. President Trump ripped Mamdani and NY Governor Kathy Hochul, calling this "amateur hour" and dangerous "experiment" that will destroy what was once a great City and State. Trump pledged to have the federal government look for a way to avert this "disaster." Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
The brilliant Wajahat Ali, author of Go Back to Where You Came From, and playwright of The Domestic Crusaders, had me on The LeftHook to share my new book A Reasonable Guide for Unreasonable Women: 20 Steps to Find Your Purpose and Power in a World on Fire. Watch or listen to the full discussion on how to overcome the very real and urgent threat of fascism. (Side note: In France, Marine Le Pen is campaigning for president wearing an ankle monitor, following in the footsteps of her fellow Russian asset, the convicted felon/Epstein wing-man). Trump is doing to our country what he did to the East Wing of our White House. How do we rebuild from the wreckage? That's what A Reasonable Guide for Unreasonable Women is about. It's for anyone tired of Steve Bannon trying to demoralize us and flood the zone with sh*t. It's about concrete steps to stay grounded and focused in a world of chaos, to align your deepest needs and dreams with a higher purpose, creating world domination for the collective good. My own journey begins with being raised on stories of the government trying to kill you, and blame you for the crime, helped by Western corruption to cover-up the torture and murder. I am of course speaking of my Ukrainian heritage and the Holodomor, Stalin's genocide famine in Ukraine. In all my years of studying my family's history and the two monsters, Hitler and Stalin, who drove that history, I look back on America's own, and see the authoritarianism that established this country. The white supremacy blood lust terrorizing Black Americans, Native Americans, mass discrimination and violence against immigrants, and the list goes on. Trump, Stephen Miller, Peter Thiel, and too many others carry on that violent legacy. That's why they're aligned with the Kremlin, which sees Ukrainians as inferior. In Ukrainian culture, we're taught to fight for our very lives, our voice, our art, our culture, our language, because no one else will. They want to erase us, so we must do the opposite and shine, shine, shine. In Ukrainian culture, art is literally survival. The coded language of poetry preserves historical truth, our shared humanity, our courage and defiance. Life is incredibly stubborn. Creativity is how we fortify our resilience. A Reasonable Guide for Unreasonable Women provides 20 concrete steps for women–who are the favorite target of fascists, because they fear the fight in us–and their allies–to dream big for themselves and the kind of world we want to live in. That is how we reset the culture, overcome their darkness with our light, and gather our people to create a better world. We are the alternative to their dystopian vision for our future, a future that belongs to us. To better get to new my new and most personal book, I put together this Q&A: Empowerment can be a privilege. Many nonwhite women, especially immigrants, are juggling several jobs just to survive. How does this book make space for different lived experiences A Reasonable Guide for Unreasonable Women is based on my own lived experience of being raised in a Ukrainian immigrant family. My grandmothers both worked as maids to survive. So I take nothing for granted when it comes to the diversity of demands on women today. Throughout the book, I share wisdom and insights from women across history. There's also a recommended reading guide in the book, featuring an incredible list of women authors, like Mikki Kendall and trans activist Raquel Willis. I also share a troubling story about a Black mentor telling me to get a white man to join me for my pitch meetings and just sit there. I'm sad to say it did make a difference. Planting seeds of hope and change – whether that's through launching a dream project like a film, book, business, non-profit, or some other ambitious goal – can be a grind. Does this book highlight organizations on the frontlines doing that unglamorous work in the shadows, helping us build that collective power? Yes, absolutely! And I made sure that the blurbs (endorsements) featured at the front of the book included voices from grassroots groups, to promote their efforts to a wider audience. Julie Delaurier of Rise and Resist began as an organizer in ACT UP and helped organize Tesla Takedown and No Kings. She also organizes to track and resist ICE raids in NYC. She read the book and provided a heartfelt endorsement. So did civil rights leader Maya Wiley, President of the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights, and Holley Atkinson of the grassroots group the Media and Democracy Project bringing legal challenges to the existence of Fox News. Isn't self-help ego-driven? A Reasonable Guide is all about collective action. Individual choices produce collective action. Think of A Reasonable Guide for Unreasonable Women as Julia Cameron's The Artist's Way meets Timothy Snyder's On Tyranny. Self-knowledge isn't the end goal here; it's the foundation for knowing where you can make an impact. It cites women across movements and their advice on how to stay creative and build power in a time of mass destruction. But isn't this focus on the self just new age nonsense which is a slippery slope to fascism, given reports of new age online movements being breeding grounds for fascist cult recruitment? This book follows an ancient tradition of taking on an empire with the power of ideas. Ideas cannot be killed. And you cannot stop an idea whose time has come. Know thyself was popularized by the ancient Greeks, most famously by Socrates who was a champion of women for that time. The Greeks were conquered by the sadistic and corrupt Roman Empire. A couple hundred years later, the Greeks conquered them right back through the power of self-knowledge and ideas. Greek became the dominant language of the Roman Empire. Self-knowledge is not ego. The book walks you through steps to think creatively and conquer doubt in order to build meaningful collective action. I had to produce my film Mr. Jones myself because no one wanted it. Mr. Jones was a film to bring historical justice and truth to a massive genocide by the Kremlin, covered up for generations, including with the help of Western corruption. A former Ambassador to Ukraine called Mr. Jones Ukraine's Schindler's List. A screening was shut down in Moscow, and Memorial, Russia's once largest NGO that dared to screen it, was liquidated. There were death threats and harassment during the making of the film, but still the team and I fought on, holding on to the power of our creativity and voices. That is what A Reasonable Guide for Unreasonable Women is about: remembering the power of your voice in a world that wants to silence you and kill you. It's also a damn good time. I hope you will consider checking it out and pre-ordering A Reasonable Guide for Unreasonable Women, which helps build buzz in the industry and gets the word out. Thank you to everyone who has supported my work over the years. It means so much.

In this episode, James and Audrey follow George Washington and the Continental Army through the disastrous New York and New Jersey campaign of 1776, as the British launch the largest overseas expedition in their nation's history to crush the rebellion. We examine the pivotal Battle of Long Island, Washington's remarkable nighttime escape from Brooklyn Heights, the loss of New York City, and the desperate retreat across New Jersey that brought the American cause to the brink of collapse. Along the way, we explore the failed Staten Island Peace Conference, Nathan Hale's famous mission, the capture of Fort Washington, and the leadership lessons Washington learned through defeat. By Christmas 1776, with enlistments expiring, morale at its lowest point, and the Revolution seemingly on the verge of failure, Washington knew that one bold stroke might be all that stands between American independence and total defeat.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Mark Zuckerberg has defended the crew of his $300 million superyacht, which is under scrutiny after accusations about an incident with a snubbed boat.

Mark interviews Roger Friedman from Showbiz 411. Mark and Roger talk about Carly Simon's song, “You're So Vain.” How are other older artists doing, and can they still perform nowadays?

[REBROADCAST FROM February 10, 2026] For over 20 years, truck driver Joe Macken worked to make a model of New York City, building by building, block by block. He finished in 2025, and after his kids encouraged him to post about the project online, Macken quickly went viral, garnering millions of views. The result of that publicity is a new exhibit open at the Museum of the City of New York, 'He Built This City: Joe Macken's Model,' which displays Macken's creation in full for the first time in New York City. Macken discusses his inspiration for the project alongside curator Elisabeth Sherman. Photo by David Lurvey/MCNY: Joe Macken, New York City Model (detail), 2004–2025.

There are two stories being sold about AI right now, and both of them will keep you stuck. One says it's going to replace you and everything you do will be obsolete. The other says you're already behind and if you're not using it for a hundred things you'll never catch up. If you've been feeling some version of both at the same time, this conversation is for you.In this episode I'm joined by my friend Terri Trespicio — messaging expert, author of Unfollow Your Passion, and the voice behind a viral TEDx talk with more than eight million views — and we're getting into what this moment actually asks of us as people who do human-centered work. This isn't an anti-AI conversation. We both use it every day. What we're really talking about is what the tool can carry and what it absolutely cannot, and why the part it can't carry is the part your entire business is built on.Terri makes a case in this conversation that I have not been able to stop thinking about: AI isn't replacing creativity, it's relocating it. The work moves upstream, into your choices, your questions, your judgment about what's even worth making. Which means the better you know what's yours, the more useful the tool becomes — and the less you know, the more generic everything you produce will be. We go back and forth on what that looks like in practice, where each of us draws the line, and why the thing that makes your work worth paying for was never the output in the first place. It was the taste, the lived experience and the stories behind it, and none of that exists inside a machine.In this episode you'll hear:The two fear stories about AI that are keeping people paralyzed — and why neither one is serving youWhat AI genuinely can't do, no matter how good it gets — and why that's the most valuable real estate in your businessWhy you are a creative even if you have never once thought of yourself that wayWhat it actually takes to get something out of these tools that sounds like you and not like everyone elseWhy there is no perfect template, formula, or launch sequence — and what to trust insteadWhat human-centered work requires that an automated business never willTerri is also the founder of The Studio, a virtual, critic-free, judgment-free writing room that runs in real time Monday through Friday — for business owners, brand owners, authors, and anyone who wants to write. And Terri is going to be in the room with us at Passionate & Prosperous LIVE! this October, on the panel I built specifically for this conversation — The Human Edge: Building Your Personal Brand in the Age of AI.

This month, on Laura Flanders & Friends, we turn to the state of journalism—at a moment of deep disruption, consolidation, and consequence. Across the country and around the world, newsrooms are shrinking, ownership is concentrating, and the very idea of a free and independent press is under pressure. But journalists aren't simply standing by—they're pushing back, reimagining their work, and, in many cases, taking matters into their own hands.This week we explore whether worker-owned media might offer a path forward, as reporters and editors respond to industry collapse by building new models rooted in accountability and collective power. This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donate Description: The business of media is in danger — but it sure isn't dead. Many of the rising stars that were poised to “save journalism” like Vice and Buzzfeed have either entered bankruptcy or stopped reporting on news. There have been layoffs across the industry and many newsrooms have cut back on the resources available to journalists. But workers have also organized unions, including high-profile campaigns at Condé Nast and The New Yorker, and started worker-owned media like Hell Gate and Defector. This month on “Meet the BIPOC Press”, Laura Flanders is joined by three journalists who have lived through the struggles and are a part of the solutions. Alex Sujong Laughlin is a supervising producer and co-owner at Defector; Esther Wang is a worker-owner at Hell Gate; and Tammy Kim helped organize unions at Al Jazeera America and The New Yorker, where she is a contributing writer. How do they think about the future of journalism, and what difference does it make when journalists have the freedom to speak truth to power — especially when it comes to reporting on policing and Palestine?

What if some of the people we think of as having the most unconventional sex lives are actually having some of the clearest conversations about intimacy? Because kink is about a lot more than whips, handcuffs, or what happens in a dungeon. At its best, it requires people to talk openly about things many couples struggle to discuss at all: What do I want? What are my boundaries? What makes me feel safe? What am I curious about? What am I afraid to admit turns me on? And can I trust you with a part of myself I don't show everyone else? Those are intimacy questions. And you don't have to have any interest in kink to learn from the answers. On this episode of The Language of Love, I'm joined by Amanda Dames, known as The Kink Consultant. Amanda is a sexologist, Somatica-certified sex and relationship coach, podcast host, and former New York City dominatrix. And her story is wild. Amanda found her way into New York's BDSM world almost by accident and eventually became a highly sought-after dominatrix working with powerful, successful men and women. People who spent their days being in charge would walk through her door desperate for something they rarely got anywhere else: permission to stop being in control. Then Amanda's own relationship to power took an unexpected turn. She met the man who would become her husband at a kink event, and the woman who had built a career being dominant discovered that, with him, she wanted to surrender. But this conversation isn't really about dungeons or labels. It's about what Amanda learned inside that world that applies to the rest of us. We talk about why so many of us hide our desires from the person we love most, how shame quietly follows us into the bedroom, and why feeling safe enough to say “this is what I want” can be an incredibly intimate act. Amanda also shares practices from the kink community that I think many couples could benefit from, including negotiating desires and boundaries before sex, checking in during an experience, and having an “aftercare” conversation afterward about what felt good, what didn't, and what you might want differently next time. And we get into something even bigger: power. Why can surrender feel so freeing for someone who carries enormous responsibility in the rest of their life? Why do some women crave the ability to soften and relinquish control while simultaneously fearing what that vulnerability requires? And what happens when you trust someone enough to show them a part of yourself you've been editing, hiding, or judging for years? In this episode, we explore: What “kink” actually means, and why it may be very different from what you imagine What Amanda learned about human desire while working as a New York City dominatrix Why powerful, high-achieving people can crave surrender behind closed doors How Amanda went from being the one in control to discovering her own desire to submit Why people hide fantasies and desires even in otherwise loving relationships How to tell your partner what you want without making either of you feel pressured or ashamed What the kink community gets right about consent, boundaries, communication, and trust The before-and-after conversations that could transform sex for couples who have never set foot near the kink world Why surrender and vulnerability require safety, rather than weakness How to respond when your partner tells you something sexually that surprises you What it takes to feel truly known by another person without editing yourself first You may come to this episode because you're curious about Amanda's years as a dominatrix. But I think you'll stay for a much more interesting question: How much more intimate could your relationship become if you felt safe enough to tell the person you love who you really are and what you really want? To learn more about Amanda and her work, visit her website. You can find her on Instagram where she shares daily insights on kink and relationships, and listen to her podcast, The Kink Consultant Podcast, for deeper explorations of desire, communication, and intimacy. if you felt a spark from today's show, don't stop here.

For many people – including Charlie and Nate – studying classical piano as a child always felt like a chore. Now, as adults, there's a newfound appreciation for classical music, but the art form isn't always accessible. One of the people trying to change that is the world-renowned pianist Lang Lang, classical piano's greatest interpreter. On this episode of Switched on Pop, Charlie sits down with Lang Lang at the Steinway showroom in New York City to see how taste changes over time, the different ways a master pianist can interpret a work, and ultimately, why classical music is still important.

“Are we in a rut, or is the relationship over?” is a question so many of us have asked, and we're breaking it down on this episode. We discuss the signs of a relationship rut, when and why they typically occur, and the questions to ask yourself to determine whether a relationship is worth saving. We discuss how to get out of the rut, from small changes to larger pivots, plus low, medium, and high effort ways to bring novelty into your relationship. We also talk about intimacy vs. sex, why not wanting to have sex isn't always a red flag, unexpected things that can keep your relationship spicy, and a high-level sex challenge to consider. Before we get into the topic, we have a lot to catch up on – how Rayna is feeling about living in NYC and Ashley's latest thoughts on moving, Ashley's ongoing butt issues and a mortifying moment at the doctor, and if Rayna is regretting her short hair.
