This is a vulnerable episode for me to share, but it was very important to me to record and release this episode because it highlights something I don't think we see enough: people in positions of power, privilege or leadership openly receiving feedback. Janie Ganga is a yoga teacher I deeply admire and have worked closely with for nearly a decade. In May of this year, they reached out to tell me something I had posted on social media had upset and hurt them. (Here is the reel that started it all.) We've had several conversations about the situation since, and this episode is the culmination and public sharing of how we worked through that.  Please listen, share it widely, and let us know how it lands with you. Janie Ganga (she/they) is an E-RYT 500 Yoga Teacher, social justice activist, and co-owner of Santosha Yoga, an online studio rooted in the Providence, RI community. Certified in I AM Yoga since 2013, Ganga specializes in Private Yoga, Yoga Nidra, and Let Your Yoga Dance, and is completing certification as a Yoga Therapist. Beyond the mat, Janie has organized queer community events for years – creating queer friendly femme-centered spaces in Boston with madFemmePride and co-leading the 2006 Transcending Boundaries Conference, which brought together activists for Transgender, Bisexual, Intersex, Polyamorous, and Kink Rights. As a Professional Member of ASDAH (Association for Size Diversity and Health), Janie is guided by Health at Every Size and is passionate about making yoga accessible to all bodies and identities.

Anne Lamott's son “called on” his mom after a transphobic tweet - Janie stumbled on this story after she questioned a colleague about sharing a Lamott's quote. Ganga discovered Lamott had publicly apologized, though the apology received little attention compared to the initial harm.

In this episode, we sit down with Tricia Cooke — the creative force behind the recent lesbian comedies Drive-Away Dolls and Honey Don't. Married to filmmaker Ethan Coen (yes, of the Coen brothers), Tricia has long identified as a lesbian, and we dive into how that identity intersects with her decades-long, straight-presenting poly marriage. The conversation spans two interviews a year apart: first, in Tricia and Ethan's Manhattan home following the release of Drive-Away Dolls, and then more recently, as Honey Don't hits theaters. From her early days in the film industry to the making of a queer B-movie trilogy, Tricia shares it all — including some juicy behind-the-scenes moments and insights into working with Honey Don't stars, Aubrey Plaza and Margaret Qualley.

In this episode of Psyche Podcast, I sit down with theologian David W. Congdon to explore his bold new article, The Polyamorous Christ: On the Sexual Ethics of the Incarnation. We dig into why Christianity has historically treated erotic love with suspicion, how monogamy became the assumed norm, and why it's important to distinguish polyamory from polygamy .David challenges the common move of grounding polyamory in the Trinity and instead turns to Christology and the incarnation as a richer resource. We talk about the logic of noncompetitive abundance—how God's love in Christ shows that love isn't a scarce resource but something that grows the more it's shared .Together, we explore how this vision could reshape Christian sexual ethics, not by mandating polyamory, but by rejecting compulsory monogamy and opening up a “buffet of options” for human relationships rooted in consent and flourishing .This conversation is provocative, challenging, and deeply hopeful. Whether or not you identify as Christian, I think you'll find that David's idea of a polyamorous logic of love opens new ways of thinking about intimacy, community, and what it means to live abundantly.

Send us a textEvolutionary anthropologist Dr. Anna Machin delivers groundbreaking research revealing monogamy as a social construct rather than our biological destiny, with satisfaction levels being equal between monogamous and polyamorous relationships.• Monogamy developed as a social control mechanism when civilization became more complex• Approximately 50% of supposedly monogamous households experience infidelity• Very few species in nature are truly sexually monogamous, including humans• Research shows no significant difference in relationship satisfaction between monogamous and consensually non-monogamous partnerships• Social stigma remains the biggest challenge for polyamorous individuals despite their emphasis on honesty and communication• Individual factors like attachment style and personality play a bigger role in relationship preference than gender• Polyamorous people don't "split" their love but expand their capacity for it, similar to loving multiple friends or childrenIf you want to explore different relationship structures, consider researching relationship anarchy and non-monogamy, and remember that honest communication with partners is essential regardless of your chosen relationship style.Original video - https://youtu.be/hxsnk90VwCo?si=oS9cSO_ycjPB8bjR Got a burning question about kink, BDSM, relationships, and/or navigating the wild world of alternative lifestyles?

I could have named this show “I Masturbated to the Thought of You With Someone Else…” In our third podcast episode together Marcel (my partner of 2 years) and I dive deep into topics like freedom, jealousy, tears, solo polyamory, sexual freedom, and maturity in open love. Recorded in a hammock in southern Spain, we explore: -How freedom can be both inspiring and terrifying in relationships. -If they could remove one pain from each other's lives, what it would be. -How fear can actually deepen love. -Honest stories about jealousy—including a frightening hotel room moment. -Why jealousy is often a mirror of our own unmet desires. -Crying for the first time in 10 years and redefining masculinity. -The difference between envy and jealousy. -Solo polyamory: loving without merging lives. -The unexpected way opening a relationship changes desire. -Myths about open love, and why it's not a constant orgy. -The beauty of living relationships by conscious choice. -The most sovereign version of us in love. If this resonated I'd love to hear it!

“As the world changes, what place do my polyamorous romantic comedy novels have in our society? If the world now understands and somewhat accepts open relationships, is there even a need for my novels? These novels are for pre-pandemic times, BEFORE a lot of things changed — so what happens now? Are they ‘subversive enough,' and is there a place for them?”These are some of the questions your host, polyamorous romcom indie author and Life Coach Sagan Morrow, explores in this episode of the Author Diary Entries podcast! We discuss the importance of subversion and politics as part of creative expression, Sagan's thought process in applying this to her Polyamorous Passions novels, examples of what this looks like in burlesque dance (including a play-by-play breakdown of the subtext for one of Babe Maverick's most recent burlesque performances), and the deeply sinister nature of the seemingly-innocent “You should smile more!” comment that men so often say to women (and the way you can subvert this through the creative expression of living life). Resources mentioned in this episode: Small Town Stilettos and the Polyamorous Passions romantic comedy series: SaganMorrow.com/books Sagan's burlesque persona (Babe Maverick) on Instagram: Instagram.com/babemaverick Life coaching with Sagan: https://saganmorrow.com/coaching/ Connect with Sagan on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/saganlives Connect with Sagan on Threads: https://www.threads.net/@saganlives Author Diary Entries podcast, episode 182 (let people enjoy “silly” art): https://www.buzzsprout.com/400015/episodes/16955029-182-let-people-enjoy-things-in-defence-of-twilight-instagrammers Author Diary Entries podcast, episode 186 (why your “weird art” matters): https://www.buzzsprout.com/400015/episodes/17346188-186-the-art-of-creative-weirdness-and-an-ode-to-z-nation-burlesque-dancing-and-my-lady-jane Support the show

In Episode 284 of the PBSE podcast, we dive into the harrowing story of a woman navigating her husband's sudden shift from sex addiction recovery to identifying as polyamorous. After years of pain, betrayal, and dedicated recovery work, she's now facing a radical alteration in the foundation of their relationship. Her husband demands acceptance of his new identity, while she grapples with whether this is a genuine expression of self or a veiled escape from the demands of sobriety and responsibility.Throughout the episode, we explore three critical pillars of relationship health: authenticity, acceptance, and compatibility. Authenticity means being true to oneself—but also responsibly evaluating which parts of the self to honor when they are in conflict. Acceptance involves respecting another's path without necessarily agreeing with or adopting it. And compatibility is the often-overlooked requirement for sustainable connection—two people must share enough vision, values, and direction for the relationship to survive.In the end, we encourage listeners, especially betrayed partners, to hold fast to their own truth. While love is a powerful force, it cannot override a lack of compatibility. We challenge the idea that acceptance means self-abandonment and remind everyone that choosing to walk a different path from a partner does not mean you're unloving—it means you're honoring the core of who you are.For a full transcript of this podcast in article format, go to: My Addict Partner is Now Identifying as "Polyamorous" and I Don't Agree.

A husband writes in with a heartbreaking and outrageous story: after 16 years of marriage and raising six boys together, his wife gave him an ultimatum — “Open marriage or no marriage.” She claims to be polyamorous and bisexual… and already has a boyfriend she's in love with. Now she expects her husband to accept it — even while the boyfriend sleeps with her in their own marital bed.In this episode of Dear DSO, Ralph (Dad Starting Over) breaks down the emotional chaos, what's really happening behind the scenes, and what this man — and others in similar situations — need to do next.

Episode Notes Lots of hot takes in our intro. Dax negging Worf. Quark's ex-wife! Worf... picks on Morn, and then pretends to be a traditional Klingon. Worf sulks in a corner while Dax and Quark talk about Grilka. Is Worf a Klingon weeb, or is he just autistic? Quark has to fight another Klingon. Quark meat puppet time! Dax victorious. Oh yeah there's a b-plot too! The OTHER O'Briens. Polyamorous domesticity. Meat Odo's surprisingly interested in gossip. Miles and Kira feel the fanfiction. Of all the male characters on station, does Kira have the most chemistry with Miles? The Enterprise is a place where people work, DS9 is a place where people live.
