Podcasts about Romance

The way that many of us are approaching romantic relationships is all wrong. We're not prioritizing the things that really matter when selecting our partners. In today's show, we're going to talk about the conversations you need to be having with a potential partner in order to develop deeper connections and establish long-term compatibility. My guest is Lindsay Jill Roth, an award-winning television and live-events producer who has created and developed a wide variety of programming globally. She is also author of the new book Romances & Practicalities, which is based on a set of 250 research-backed questions designed to help you initiate tricky conversations and find lasting love. Some of the specific topics we explore include: What are we doing wrong when it comes to selecting relationship partners? How can being more pragmatic in your approach to relationships help to build a stronger foundation for love? Why is money management a vital issue to discuss with a potential partner? Beyond finances, what are some other key topics we should be discussing? How do you initiate conversations about topics that many people are uncomfortable discussing?

Sarah is over the moon that we're talking about celebrities again, especially because we're keeping it tight this time around and limiting it to celebrity/normal person romance (mostly -- Jen is ungovernable)! Yes, Sarah is going to talk about Perfect, but also we're going to talk about celebrities who fall for stranger normies, for normies they knew before they were celebrities, for normies who work with them, and for normies who protect them. The episode is 1200 books long and honestly, we're not sorry. In case you wondered why Sarah is breaking her rule about talking about her own books, it's that time of year again! Her next book, These Summer Storms (complete with sexy, silent, deeply competent hero) is out in July and is going on tour, and there is a real deal Fated Mates LIVE planned for July 8th in St. Louis, MO!

In this episode we had a great conversation about what other realities of life were like during the colonial era and what really happened during the Boston Tea Party.   Secrets of the Revolution by Megan Soja The cause of liberty brought them together. Will it also tear them apart? Hannah Pierce is determined to keep her father‘s apothecary shop running, despite his failing health, the heavy burden of her mother's recent death, and the mysterious disappearance of her brother. She'll do whatever it takes to preserve her family's legacy, including joining a dangerous ring of patriot spies...and falling for a revolutionary printer with a brave heart. William Abbott always keeps his promises. He vowed long ago to never abandon those in need like his father did. So when new British acts of Parliament threaten Boston and endanger his family, he throws himself into serving the Patriot cause, using his position at the printing office to gather and spread intelligence. But when his clandestine role in the newly formed spy ring causes him to cross paths with the apothecary's beautiful daughter, he may find himself fighting for more than the cause. As tensions in Boston reach a breaking point, Will and Hannah find their bond deepening even as the noose tightens around the spy ring. When promises and determination are not enough to protect the ones they love, they'll need to trust God if they are to survive what is to come.

"Il tallone da killer" di Alessandro Robecchi e i romanzi Romance di RokiaAlessandro Robecchi è uno scrittore conosciuto per i suoi noir sempre un po' graffianti e ironici, con un pizzico di critica sociale. Il suo protagonista seriale è Carlo Monterossi, autore tv che si diletta nelle indagini insieme all'amico detective privato Oscar Falcone. Ma poi ci sono anche i sovrintendenti di polizia Ghezzi e Carella. Stavolta, però, Robecchi ha preso una pausa dai suoi personaggi e ha scritto una black commedy: "Il tallone da killer" (Sellerio). Una commedia nera, dicevamo, che prende in giro con ironia e sarcasmo il mondo dei killer su commissione. I protagonisti sono due uomini, il Biondo e l'uomo con la cravatta, che hanno creato una vera e propria società che si dedica agli omicidi. Chi li vuole ingaggiare deve scrivere un necrologio con alcune parole chiave. Ma anche nel mondo dei killer su commissione c'è concorrenza: c'è chi abbassa troppo i prezzi o fa una sorta di black friday e i due si indispettiscono.Nella seconda parte parliamo di una delle massime esponenti del genere Romance che da anni domina le classifiche. Ha esordito su wattpad, la piattaforma di scrittura, nel 2016 con uno pseudonimo. I suoi scritti hanno avuto milioni di letture e così è stata notata da una casa editrice, Magazzini Salani, che ha iniziato a pubblicare i suoi romanzi. Parliamo di Rokia. I suoi sono amati dalle giovanissime anche perché ha la capacità di raccontare con sensibilità il dolore e il disagio psichico. Il nuovo romanzo si intitola "Guilty - Burn for love" ed è l'atteso seguito di "Guilty - Drunk in love". Ma il debutto era avvenuto nel 2022 con "The truth untold" seguito da "Sindrome".

Actress Rose McIver (Ghosts, iZombie, voice of Headgum) joins Nicole to explain New Zealand, why she doesn't post her loved ones on social media, and talk about all the cute, funny other ways people show love. They get into weird animal relationship stories, like the woman in love with a dolphin (who died of heartbreak), the man who tried to live among grizzlies, and Nicole's dream of becoming queen of the whales. Plus: a simple dinner hosting hack from Meghan Markle.WATCH this episode here: https://youtu.be/gdfc4IbNLv8Support this podcast and get discounts by checking out our sponsors:» Equip: To learn more about Equip's virtual eating disorder treatment, visit Equip.Health/dateme» Cash App: Download Cash App Today: https://capl.onelink.me/vFut/3v6r90n6 #CashAppPod *Referral Reward Disclaimer: As a Cash App partner, I may earn a commission when you sign up for a Cash App account.View all of our sponsors and discounts codes at wwydm.notion.site/sponsors.Follow:Tour Dates: linktr.ee/nicolebyerwastakenYouTube: @WhyWontYouDateMePodcastTikTok: @whywontyoudatemepod Instagram: @nicolebyerX: @nicolebyerNicole's book, #VERYFAT #VERYBRAVE: indiebound.org/book/9781524850746This is a Headgum podcast.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for May 23, 2025 is: bastion • BAS-chun • noun A bastion is a place or system in which something (such as an idea) is protected and continues to survive. // The restaurant is a bastion of the region's ancient culinary traditions. See the entry > Examples: “In 2017, Harlem residents took to the streets to protest Keller Williams after the real estate company began marketing the neighborhood's 15-block southern radius (between 110th Street and 125th Street) as ‘SoHa' (South Harlem) without their approval. The biggest worry? That newcomers would attempt to erase Harlem's history as a civil rights nexus and bastion of Black American culture. In response, then-New York Sen. Brian Benjamin introduced legislation that banned unsolicited name changes and fined real estate firms for using names like SoHa.” — Jake Kring-Schreifels, Spokeo, 26 Mar. 2025 Did you know? Bastion today usually refers to a metaphorical fortress, a place where an idea, ethos, philosophy, culture, etc. is in some way protected and able to endure. But its oldest meaning concerned literal fortifications and strongholds. Bastion likely traces back to a verb, bastir, meaning “to build or weave,” from Old Occitan, a Romance language spoken in southern France from about 1100 to 1500. Bastir eventually led to bastia, an Italian word for a small quadrangular fortress, and from there bastione, referring to a part of a fortified structure—such as an outer wall—that juts or projects outward. Bastione became bastion in Middle French before entering English with the same meaning. You may be familiar with another bastir descendent, bastille, which refers generically to a prison or jail, but is best known as the name of the Parisian fortress-turned-prison stormed by an angry mob at the start of the French Revolution; the Bastille's fall is commemorated in France by the national holiday Bastille Day.

André Lauren Benjamin, better known by his stage name André 3000, once said that "Roses really smell like Poo-Poo-Ooh"... and while he had a propensity to 'run out of sugar', forcing him to ask his neighbors if he could borrow some; this modern-day philosopher was right on the money when it came to the fruit of this expensive, thorny flower... Thusly Pastors Zac and Ashley discuss the finer tenets of Romance... and I beg you to recognize the plurality of the word "tenets". Topic Ideas: info@hpc.com

Psychology is hard, even when you're just trying to understand what's going on with one impossibly complex person. Romance psychology is particularly hard because you're trying to understand what's going on between two impossibly complex people. Eli Finkel is a professor of psychology at Northwestern University. Paul Eastwick is a professor at the University of California, Davis. Both are experts on the psychology of attraction, dating, and romance and hosts of the Love Factually podcast. Today, Derek asks: Does anybody actually have "a type"? Are we any good at predicting the sort of people we'll fall in love with? Has online dating caused people to over-filter for attraction, even though initial attraction doesn't determine long-term compatibility? How do modern, affluent folks' incredibly high expectations of marriage affect satisfaction in long-term relationships?
