Podcasts about Stepmonster

We're exploring all avenues of empowerment this week, from female friendship to being a "Free Agent", bonobos vs. chimps, and even exploring age hypogamy relationships. Wednesday Martin, Ph.D. joins Dr. Kate on this week's episode of Get Naked to talk about: • Recent studies on female friendship and the crucial role it plays in women's lives • The benefits of decentering men • Bonobos, chimps, and the key differences of their social structures (including what we can learn from bonobos) • Why younger men reported wanting to be with older women • The concept of new masculinities And truly SO much more! By the end of this episode, you may be asking yourself, "How can I live more like a bonobo?" Wednesday Martin, Ph.D. has been a writer and social researcher in New York City (and now Los Angeles) for over two decades. Her writing explores gender, parenting and motherhood, popular culture, and female sexuality. Her memoir, Primates of Park Avenue, is a hilarious, touching, and insightful look into the exotic world of Manhattan motherhood. Her book Stepmonster, a finalist for the prestigious Books for a Better Life Award, is widely considered the “go-to” source for stepmothers, adult stepchildren, therapists and others who seek a uniquely candid, interdisciplinary, cross-cultural and comprehensive look at the topic.

Extending our season to fit in some spooky Disney Classics was definitely the way to go. This week, we watched "Stepmonster" a 90's ode to the old school, rubber-monster-costume movies of the 50's and 60's. The movie stars Alan Thicke, Canada's TV Dad, who you may recognize from the sitcom "Growing Pains," and also starring Robin Riker, who you may recognize from the DCOM days of "Brink!" and "Don't Look Under the Bed." And a special guest star, Corey Feldman, known for his role on "The Lost Boys" and as the voice of Donatello in "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles." While on a work/vacation trip, Todd Dougherty stumbles upon some mysterious footprints while exploring the Cascade Forest. Always dismissive of Todd's imagination, his father George would rather focus on buildings and blue prints, while Todd's Mother has a better understanding of Todd's imagination and love for comic books...comic books that apparently have the power to predict the future or something. Not long after meeting the mysterious and seductive client, Denise Gore, Todd's Mom gets lost in the forest and is attacked by a infamous creature the Tripopkin! (Sort of a cross between Bigfoot and those weird dinosaurs with the collar in Jurassic Park.) After months of searching, George is ready to move on and decides to marry...Denise!?!? Todd is instantly suspicious and sure enough comes to find out that Denise may not be what she seems, and the Suburbs will never be the same. As cringe-y and awkward as some scenes get in this movie, there's still some fun stuff to enjoy...and the music is pretty great. Hope you enjoy!

Guests Alex Shumaker & Ami Dolenz on the Melissa Billie Clark Show Ami Dolenz: Ami was born January 8, 1969 at 7:05 am, in Burbank California. Her parents brought her home the next day. Micky's mother, Janelle Scott, was there to help the new parents. In 1980, Ami, her mother and grandmother moved back to their townhouse. Ami attended a private school nearby, and made lots of friends, many of them remain her friends today. Her parents arranged for Ami to talk about acting with a friend of theirs, who was in the business. The friend spent two hours with Ami, talking to her about how difficult it is to get an agent, how hard it is just to get an appointment, and how many she would have to see, with no guarantee she would be signed-up by anyone. Ami left with a list of agents to contact. She was also a co-star in many other films, including: “Can't buy me love”, “Faith”, Rescue Me”, and several horror films, such as: “Children of the night”, Ticks”, Witchboard II”, and Pumpkinhead II”. On the lighter side, is “Stepmonster”, a very cute movie about a kid that is sure his stepmother is a monster. “Miracle Beach” is the movie most often mentioned by her fans as their favorite. She still has the genie costume from the movie. Alex Shumaker: Alex Shumaker was born May 16, 2006, he resides in Punxsutawney, PA. Alex was interested in Classic Rock bands such as Journey, Foreigner, Reo Speed Wagon and Styx since age 4. While most 5 years were headed to the Toy section at Walmart Alex would ask to go to “look” at the CD's. On February 10, 2012 while browsing the CD's Alex found a DVD of the band Journey with their new lead singer Arnel. Alex became fixated on drummer Deen Castronovo, he went and got an exercise ball and put it in front of the TV and grabbed some kitchen utensils for his make shift drum set. He watched the video over and over again and broke every kitchen utensil his parents had so when his dad came home from work he cut a pair of plastic coat hangers for him to use. That evening Alex's mom posted a picture of his drum “kit” on Facebook with the heading “you gotta do what you gotta do when your parents won't buy you a drum set!” The phone soon rang and it was Alex's Nana wanting to speak with him. His parents weren't all that thrilled when he started screaming “Nana and Papa are buying me a real drum set on Saturday”. Alex received that little drum kit and played it for hours on end, at least 3-4 hours a day watching the Journey DVD over and over trying copy Deen's every move. Every time Alex went to Walmart he got a CD. One day another DVD appeared, this time it was the band Foreigner with then drummer Brian Tichy. Alex became obsessed with Tichy's theatrics of stick throwing/bouncing. After a few months of playing Alex's parents enrolled him in drum lessons once a week with teacher Brian Rowan with whom he is still under the instruction of. To date along with Castronovo and Tichy the most influential drummers for Alex have been: Todd Sucherman of Styx, Brian Hitt of Reo Speedwagon, Chris Fraizer of Foreigner, Peter Criss of Kiss, John Bonham of Led Zeppelin, Neil Peart of Rush, Sean Fuller of Florida Georgia Line and Rich Redmond of Jason Aldean, Lucky Lerner of the Circle Jerks, Glen Sobel of Alice Cooper, and Troy Luccketta of Tesla to mention a few. --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/melissabillieclark/support

Suz and Nick list practical tips for communication and improving dynamics with loved ones and family (however and whomever you’re living with) during isolation. (Books referenced: Stepmonster by Wednesday Martin, PhD; Codependent No More by Melody Beattie)

Stepmonster has all the makings of a cult classic - Roger Corman, a group of people far too talented for the material, and a really cool monster. Does it all come together as well as that beautiful Tropopkin costume? The Cult Standard investigates.

Stepfamilies are the “new normal.” In fact, 50% of American kids will have a stepparent at some point in their lives (Health Research Funding, 2015). But, according to the Stepfamily Foundation, 75% of stepfamilies complain of “not having access to resources as a stepfamily.” For this reason, Kendall Rose wrote The Stepmoms Club: How to Be a Stepmom Without Losing Your Money, Your Mind, and Your Marriage. Kendall shares both her personal experience as a single woman who married a man with kids and the collective wisdom of the members of The Stepmoms Club. Join us as we discuss:- The imperative step you MUST take before marrying a man with children—and if you’re already married, do this immediately!- The “Stepmom Vortex” and how to avoid getting sucked into it!- Which blended family elements you can control and which you can’t.- Combatting the “evil stepmother” stereotype.- The infuriating Disneyland Dad Syndrome—why he does it and how to handle it.- The optimal way to deal with his difficult ex.- Why hitting the wall may be the BEST thing to happen to you and your family!- The unexpected blessings of a blended family.Learn from those who’ve been there—avoid the mistakes they made and find comfort in the camaraderie of your fellow stepmom sisters!

“There can be no autonomy without the autonomy to choose, without coercion or constraint, or in spite of it, who our lovers will be.” — Wednesday Martin Today we have Wednesday Martin on the podcast. Dr. Martin has worked as a writer and social researcher in New York City for more than two decades. The author of Stepmonster and the instant New York Times bestseller Primates of Park Avenue, she writes for the online edition of Psychology Today and her work has appeared in The New York Times and Time.com. Dr. Martin’s latest book is called “Untrue: Why Nearly Everything We Believe About Women, Lust, and Infidelity Is Wrong and How the New Science Can Set Us Free.” In this episode we discuss: How Wednesday tries to make the sex research “delicious and fun” How female infidelity is mired in so much misunderstanding How Millenial women are more sexually adventurous compared to Millennial men What’s the consensual non-monogamy movement? How we evolved to be “cooperative breeders” What is “female flexuality”? Why we need to stop pathologizing those who embrace non-monogamy How women are driving the polyamory movement The good reasons why monogamy is hard and the other options that exist How your attachment style and sociosexuality are linked to consensual non-monogamy Disagreeable women and sociosexuality Rethinking sex differences in the drive for sexual novelty Pornography viewing differences between men and women Common triggers of violence in relationships Rethinking the motivations underlying sex differences in cheating How better science can help us all have hotter sex

Wednesday Martin, author of “Untrue”, crushes the myths about women, sex and monogamy, discussing with Carmen how there's no talk of equity if we don't talk about women's needs (amirite?). Issa Rae, Beyonce and bonobos pay a visit (in our minds); why some married women have formed a women-only sex club; the role of technology and the economy in our sexual identities and oh, Carmen comes out as bisexual.  Rate and review this podcast on iTunes! for more wit & wisdom go to thecarmenshow.net Sign up for the newsletter and follow on social media: Twitter: @carmensense Instagram: @its_the_carmen_show

A new children's story book about the family member everyone loves to hate. Writing, reading and storytelling by Jillian Earle.

Is there a way to gain respect from your stepchildren without turning into an evil stepmonster? We’ve all heard the famous stepmonster horror stories… like that of the workings of Lady Tremaine, Cinderella’s wicked stepmother. And they don’t turn out well… for the stepmoms, that is.

Step-parenting, or partnering with someone who has children from a previous marriage, can be a landmine to navigate.  Dr. Veronica talks with various authors and experts who offer survival tips.  Russell Cook co-hosts.

For as long as there have been fairy tales there have been evil stepmothers. Fairy tale nightmares aside, what's it really like to marry a man with children? And why do stepmoms often have such a hard time finding a comfortable and respected place in their families?
