No one was a bigger Knicks fan than our brother Adam. So when the Knicks finally won their first championship in 53 years, there was no way we weren't coming together to celebrate. The Knicks are champions. We still can't quite believe we're typing those words. In this episode, we're talking about a win that felt bigger than basketball. The hope. The city. The joy. A team that truly feels like a family. And the way an entire fan base that has waited decades for this somehow came together all at once. We also talk about Adam. Because there was no way to experience this moment without thinking about him. And while we wish he were here, neither of us can shake the feeling that he was. Maybe that's grief. Maybe that's faith. Maybe it's just what happens when something this magical finally comes true. This one's for Adam. And for every Knicks fan who waited their whole life for this moment. Go New York. Go New York. Go.

The Rebbe addresses a question about marrying a woman whose brother married the questioner's sister, referencing halachic sources. He writes that such marriages are permitted, especially if the couples do not live in the same neighborhood, and blesses them to build a chassidic home. https://www.torahrecordings.com/rebbe/igroskodesh/008/002/2276

This week on That Was Us, we're trying something a little different. Inspired by the heart of This Is Us and where we currently are in the rewatch with Kevin and Randall's reconciliation, the hosts kick off a brand new “Group Chat” format centered around one big theme: siblings! From birth order and family roles to rivalry, resentment, and deep love, Mandy, Sterling, and Chris open up about their own sibling dynamics and the ways those relationships continue to shape who they are today. In this episode, the hosts chat about: * Their own sibling dynamics, age gaps, and the roles they played growing up * How birth order can shape personality, ambition, and family identity * Why siblings raised in the same household often feel like they had completely different parents * The ways Kevin, Kate, and Randall mirror real-life sibling dynamics and coping mechanisms * How trauma and major life events can permanently shape sibling relationships * Caring for aging parents and how siblings divide emotional and logistical responsibilities * Why the sibling who moves away often experiences family differently * The lasting impact of family roles well into adulthood * Whether siblings naturally grow closer with age—or drift apart * “Hot takes” about siblings, including parent favorites, youngest-child privilege, and whether siblings are built-in best friends or built-in enemies * The value of staying connected to family, even when relationships are complicated And a friendly reminder, you can catch new episodes of That Was Us every Monday, a day early, exclusively on Hulu. Available on Spotify, YouTube, or wherever you get your podcasts on Tuesdays like usual! That Was Us is produced by Rabbit Grin Productions.

Welcome back to the podcast! Today's episode is a little different and honestly really special to me. I'm sitting down with my youngest brother, Taylor, for a conversation I've wanted to have for a long time. I'm the oldest of nine kids, Taylor is the youngest, and after my daughter Indy randomly asked me why Taylor had never been on the podcast, I realized this was finally the perfect time to record it. Recently there's been a lot of conversation online around large families, especially after influencer Hannah Neeleman announced the birth of her ninth child. And watching the reactions was fascinating because people seemed split into a few camps: admiration, criticism, and curiosity. Some people thought it looked beautiful. Others questioned whether it was realistic or healthy. And then there were people who were simply fascinated asking, what is it actually like growing up in a family that big? It made me realize—we actually have a pretty unique perspective on that conversation. One of my favorite parts of this episode was reading a paper I wrote as a teenager when my parents announced they were having their ninth baby… Taylor. And to be honest, my initial reaction wasn't exactly excitement. I remember worrying about the comments people made about our family, feeling overwhelmed by the idea of "one more," and wondering how our family could possibly stretch any further. But then I read the ending of the paper, written after Taylor was born, where I admitted something completely different: that our family felt more complete because of him. Reading it back now was hilarious, emotional, and honestly a reminder of how perspective changes over time. Taylor shares what it was actually like growing up as the youngest of nine, and one thing I loved hearing was that what looked "crazy" from the outside just felt normal to him. He talks about how much he loved always having people around, growing up close to nieces and nephews because of our age gaps, and now becoming genuine friends with our siblings as adults. We also talked about how closeness in families doesn't just happen automatically—it comes from prioritizing each other, staying connected, and intentionally creating time together. More than anything, this episode left me feeling deeply grateful. Grateful for siblings, for cousins, for the relationships that continue long after childhood, and especially for my parents. As we talked, I found myself reflecting on how much they gave to create the life we had. And maybe the biggest takeaway from this conversation is this: family life may not always look efficient or easy from the outside, but the relationships built inside of it can become some of the greatest gifts of your entire life.

How much influence did your siblings really have on the person you became?Most of us spend years examining the impact our parents had on our lives, but what about our sibling dynamics or lack thereof for only children? How much of your identity, your confidence, your relationships, your career choices, and even your marriage were shaped by the siblings who grew up alongside you?In this follow-up conversation on birth order and family systems, Karin and Elliott explore the often-overlooked influence siblings have on one another—from childhood decision-making and identity formation to dating patterns, marriage dynamics, leadership styles, and lifelong relationships.Together they discuss why younger siblings often measure themselves against older siblings, how brothers and sisters unintentionally shape one another's interests and ambitions, and why the same family can produce children who are remarkably different from one another. They also examine the role birth order may play in friendships, marriage compatibility, conflict resolution, loyalty, and the ways we pursue connection.The conversation moves beyond birth order stereotypes and into a deeper exploration of personality, family systems, trauma, attachment, and the relational patterns we carry into adulthood. Why do some people walk away from unhealthy relationships while others struggle to let go? How do our childhood roles continue to influence our marriages decades later? And how much of who we are was shaped by the people who came before us?If you've ever wondered why you respond the way you do in relationships, why certain family dynamics still affect you today, or how your siblings helped shape the person you've become, this episode offers insight, self-reflection, and a deeper appreciation for the family stories that continue to influence us.Dr. Karin & Pastor Elliott AndersonWebsite: http://loveandlifemedia.com/Empowered Dating Playbook: smarturl.it/EmpoweredDatingBookInstagram: @dr.karin | @pastorelliottanderson

 Welcome back to the second part of Catherine Carr's conversation with Kemi Alemoru, acclaimed journalist and Head of Editorial Content at Glamour UK.  They are still unpacking the siblings we've watched on TV, in Music, and popular culture. Catherine and Kemi share their mutual love of TV's most toxic family, the Roys  from Succession where the siblings trauma-bond after surviving  a domineering father. They dissect the "eldest boy" syndrome, and the constant, exhausting battle for their parent's affection and empire. They also discuss The Jacksons, and their impact as a family and musical geniuses. Kemi shares how the shiny, aspirational family units presented in classic sitcoms like The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air and My Wife and Kids provided a crucial blueprint for her own upbringing.  And they touch on other cult siblings, the Bennet sisters from Pride and Prejudice and the dysfunctional dynamics of Arrested Development.  This is a sharp, insightful, and totally riveting conversation about the pop culture siblings we love to analyse, and the real-life family roles we can't escape. If this one hit home, share it with your siblings. Subscribe to the Relatively Podcast channel so you never miss an episode.

187 Surviving with Laughter: Angela Nissel Talks Hospice and Healing Host Marie Betcher, a former hospice nurse, interviews writer and memoirist Angela Nissel about her book "Good Grief: Pass the Bread, Mom is Dead" and her mother's end-of-life journey. Angela describes a complicated, achievement-focused relationship with her RN mother, who hid advanced breast cancer and feared judgment for "giving up." Angela brought her to Los Angeles, expecting more treatment, but a doctor recommended hospice; her mother felt relief and was on hospice about six weeks. Angela shares what caregiving taught her, including learning to "just be her daughter," navigating pain medication fears, misconceptions that hospice hastens death, a brief end-of-life rally, and the value of dignity, trust-building, and services like 24/7 care and music therapy. She says hospice became their best, most connected time together and writing later helped her talk about death and grief. 00:00 Welcome and Disclaimer 00:35 Meet Angela Nissel 03:08 A Complicated Mother Daughter Bond 04:54 Caregiving Lessons in Hospice 07:53 Cancer Progression and Hospice Decision 10:26 Nurse Identity and Letting Go 11:55 Her Nursing Career and NICU Work 14:33 Grief Writing and Dark Humor 16:21 Siblings and Hiding Illness 19:24 Changing the Fight Cancer Narrative 22:12 Comfort Meds and Hospice Myths 25:21 Terminal Rally and 24 7 Care 29:44 Inside the Book and Hospice Journals 32:09 Final Reflections and Goodbye     If you want to help, you can donate to help support Hospice Explained at the Buy me a Coffee link   https://www.buymeacoffee.com/Hospice  Hospice Explained Affiliates & Contact Information Buying from these Affilite links will help support this Podcast.  Maire introduces a partnership with Suzanne Mayer RN inventor of the  cloud9caresystem.com,  When patients remain in the same position for extended periods, they are at high risk of developing pressure injuries, commonly known as bedsores.

Hands up if you've learnt all about families from the Kardashians? Ross and Monica on Friends? This week on Relatively, Catherine Carr is joined by acclaimed journalist and Head of Editorial Content at Glamour UK, Kemi Alemoru, to unpack the siblings we've watched on TV, in films, and seen in popular culture. Kemi, the youngest of three girls (and self-proclaimed "baby"), shares hilarious stories from her own female-dominated household. From her dad staging a Lord of the Flies-style boardroom intervention to solve a sisterly argument to a family healing exercise that nearly started a forest fire, Kemi proves that real-life sisterhood is just as dramatic as reality TV. The episode takes a deep dive into the ultimate modern dynasty: the Kardashians. Kemi and Catherine explore the psychological basis for their sibling rivalry, tracing their evolution from a fun, chaotic sisterhood to a billionaire empire where exclusionary WhatsApp group chats and physical fights expose deep rifts. They also draw fascinating parallels between the Kardashians and England's original 1930s "It Girls", the Mitford sisters. The conversation touches on how extreme political differences and contrasting lifestyles can fracture even the tightest blood bonds, whether you are a high-society communist or a reality TV star. Plus, Kemi breaks down the iconic, highly-strung dynamic of Ross and Monica from Friends, and why shared houses in your 20s can create a "chosen family" that transcends DNA. This is a funny, sharp, and totally riveting conversation about the pop culture siblings we love to analyse, and the real-life family roles we can't escape.           If this one hit home, share it with your siblings.

Siblings who don't get along is one of the major reasons why families don't have more kids. It drives everyone nuts, disrupts the family, makes you feel overwhelmed, and eventually leads adults who SHOULD be best friends to be essentially strangers. That's why one of the main components of building a family team is creating strong sibling bonds between each one of your kids. Today's guests have 5 children and have been very intentional about creating systems and rhythms in their family that grow the relationship between each sibling. Learn their 3 techniques for building strong sibling bonds that lead to a more peaceful home and lifelong closeness between your kids.

A viral clip says that telling your older child to “help your sister” damages both kids. I get why that message spreads fast, especially if you grew up as the oldest and felt like too much landed on your shoulders. But developmental psychology is more nuanced than a scroll-stopping soundbite, and mixing up parentification with age-appropriate help can leave parents stuck and anxious about every request they make.I break down what the research actually supports: yes, it can be unhealthy when an older child feels like the parent, carries ongoing responsibility, or becomes the default caregiver. That's real, and it matters. But it's also true that families thrive on cooperation, and small, bounded responsibilities can build autonomy, confidence, and trust. We talk about the difference between equality and equity, why “everyone gets the same” often fails in real homes with real ages and stages, and how to give kids what they need without trying to force a perfectly balanced scoreboard.You'll hear practical ways to frame sibling teamwork, assign roles that fit each child's capacity, and avoid resentment by keeping parents in charge while still letting kids contribute. If you want less sibling conflict and more cooperation, this conversation gives you a clear line between healthy helping and too much.Send us Fan MailSupport the showIf parenting has felt hard lately… you don't have to figure it out alone.Inside The Parent Lab, I'll help you understand what's actually going on underneath your child's behavior — and give you simple, in-the-moment tools that actually work in real life.You'll get access to my full course library, live coaching calls with me, practical workshops, and our 21-Day Sibling Challenge designed to help reduce the fighting and build better relationships between your kids.If you want support, tools, and a clear plan instead of just guessing your way through parenting… come join us inside The Parent Lab.CLICK HERE to Try the Parent Lab TodayOther Links to help you and me:Get Jon's Book Punishment-Free Parenting Preorder Jon's Children's Book Set My Feelings FreeFollow Whole Parent on Instagram, Tiktok, Facebook,...

Emily Holl has dedicated her life to giving a voice to the people so often left out of the conversation: siblings of individuals with disabilities and complex health needs. As Director of The Sibling Support Project, she has become a leading advocate, writer, and guide for families navigating the lifelong realities of love, responsibility, identity, and connection. But her work is more than professional. It is deeply personal. As a sibling herself, Emily understands the invisible emotions, quiet sacrifices, and profound bonds that shape these relationships in ways the world rarely sees. Through her writing, research, workshops, and advocacy, Emily creates space for siblings to feel seen, understood, and less alone. Her work speaks to the complexity of caregiving, family, and belonging with honesty, compassion, and extraordinary depth. Whether through her books, public speaking, or support programs, she reminds people that behind every diagnosis is a family learning how to carry both challenge and love at the same time.

Life with a teenager can feel like emotional whiplash—one minute you've “ruined their life” over dinner, the next they need you again 15 minutes later—while other parents are just trying to survive exhausting days juggling everything and feeling like they've lost themselves completely. Some are dealing with siblings constantly pushing buttons, others are struggling with friendships that have suddenly gone silent after decades, leaving them stuck wondering what went wrong. Whether it's chaos at home, loneliness, or trying to hold everything together, it's all a reminder that everyone's just doing their best to get through it without losing their patience—or their sense of humor.

On today's episode David, Jason, Natalie, Taylor and Georgia record from the boat in Croatia for a raucous pod talking about David trip to New York where he had dinner with his siblings, how Jason got angry at Jason's filmer and Georgia's very scary story about her last time on a yacht.  Plus, Taylor gets drunk, Ilya goes full relax mode, and Jason gets stuck at the guy's table.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Twelve Tribes reportedly designed a world where leaving meant losing everything. And according to former members, that was not a side effect. It was the point.In this episode, Tony Brueski examines what happens after the escape. Former members describe walking out of Twelve Tribes compounds with no savings, no identification, no work history, and no understanding of how to navigate a world they were raised to believe was evil. The lack of outside skills is not accidental. The lack of outside relationships is not accidental. Former members say the entire structure was allegedly designed to make departure so painful that staying — even in a system that controlled every hour of their day — felt safer than the alternative.Multiple survivors share their stories. A woman who spent fourteen years inside described the promise of community turning into an authoritarian system. A man born into the group described his first interaction with everyday technology as alien. Siblings left one by one while their parents stayed.Cult researchers describe a pattern where former members of high-control groups seek out new authoritarian structures after leaving. The Twelve Tribes, with its alleged erasure of individual identity and total replacement of personal autonomy with group authority, reportedly creates exactly the conditions that make this pattern most likely.Getting out is the beginning, not the end. And for many former members, the journey from the compound door to a functional, independent life takes years — with no institutional support waiting on the other side.Join Our SubStack For AD-FREE ADVANCE EPISODES & EXTRAS!: https://hiddenkillers.substack.com/Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?
