Many of us grow up wrestling with the feeling that we don't quite fit into our families—but what happens when that feeling is rooted in a hidden truth? Kerry Washington joins us to talk about the deeply personal family secret that inspired her powerful memoir, “Thicker Than Water,” and how she's managed to protect her privacy and set boundaries while writing such a candid story. She reflects on her most iconic roles from “Save the Last Dance” to “Scandal.” Recorded prior to the 2024 US presidential election, she also makes a strong case for why voting matters, and then we test her astrological intuition in a game of “Virgo or Aquarius?”Be the first to know about Wondery's newest podcasts, curated recommendations, and more!

Saving Struggling, Sexless and Toxic Marriages.Blood is Not Thicker Than Water!In Ep201 of The 'NEW' Marriage, we explore the idea that family connections aren't always stronger than the bonds we choose. Sometimes, chosen relationships—built on trust, respect, and love—hold more value than those formed by blood. We discuss the importance of setting boundaries, prioritizing healthy connections, and making decisions that support personal growth and happiness. Join us for a thought-provoking conversation on redefining family and loyalty in marriage and life.

Pierce Rob and Chris talk about the return of the OG Bloodline, a new mid-card championship for the women's division, and more wrestling from 2008.

In this episode, I explore the intricate narrative of loyalty and moral conflict in "Thicker Than Water." The story centers on Nick Wedge, a defense attorney navigating the treacherous waters of a murder trial involving his client, Benny Bleeker. From a mugging gone tragically wrong to the intense courtroom battles that ensue, I dissect the dynamics of familial ties and the ethical dilemmas that shape Wedge's journey. As witness testimonies unfold and evidence mounts, Wedge confronts his own beliefs and professional limits, challenging courtroom conventions with innovative forensic approaches. The emotional stakes heighten as the relationships between the characters deepen, revealing the powerful forces of love, sacrifice, and the pursuit of justice. Join me as I reflect on this poignant tale, illustrating the harsh realities of the judicial system and the enduring complexities of human loyalty.

She's known for her love of luxury, spending over $120,000 in cash on furniture while dismissing economic concerns.Dina, who moved into Caroline's house after a divorce, is an interior designer and event planner, married to Caroline's brother-in-law, Tommy. Jacqueline, the outsider from Las Vegas, is married to Dina and Caroline's brother, Chris, and is adjusting to life in Franklin Lakes. Danielle, a single mother with a controversial past, is introduced as a polarizing figure, having been engaged 19 times and now struggling financially.The episode highlights the complex dynamics among the women, especially when Teresa and Jacqueline spy on Danielle during her blind date, which ends in disappointment when the man doesn't show up. Caroline's son, Albie, graduates from Fordham University, and the Manzo family's close-knit bond is on full display.Episode 2: "Mama Knows Best"In the second episode, Jacqueline navigates her relationship with her daughter, Ashley, who is struggling in school, while also planning her son CJ's birthday party.

Kerry Washington, you read right. Award-winning actor, director, producer, and activist Kerry Washington. In support of the second season of her hit show UnPrisoned on Hulu Onyx Collective, Kerry stopped by Lovers and Friends to discuss what she learned from Paige, how learning that her biological father was a sperm donor changed her family for the better, therapy with her parents and husband, how real parents should get with their kids, her parenting philosophy and more. If you loved Kerry Washington in any of her classics, like Scandal or Django Unchained OR if you read her book Thicker Than Water, you will LOVE UnPrisoned and furthermore, this raw interview on the power and potential that comes when you heal the family by not being afraid to hurt or disappoint one another. Of course I couldn't have Kerry Washington stop by and NOT talk about sex, reproductive rights and pole dancing - so expect that too :).

Today we're going to talking about the true meaning of the saying "Blood is Thicker Than Water," and how that relates to planning your future. Our past can be a great motivator, but it's not always an indicator of what our potential may be. Let's talk about how what we once thought to be true may not always end up being the best interpretation of reality. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/generalfitnesscompany/support

“Becoming other people” for a living, as Kerry Washington likes to describe her craft, turns out to be a revelatory lens on the high drama that is the human condition. As a “learning actor,” a kind of actor/anthropologist, she has brought elegance and moral rigor to all kinds of roles: as the uber-glamorous, tough-as-nails Olivia Pope on Scandal; as the wife of Idi Amin and the wife of Ray Charles; from Little Fires Everywhere to Django Unchained. Just after Scandal ended seven triumphant seasons, she starred on Broadway as Kendra, a jeans-clad mother in a Miami police station waiting to hear what has happened to her beloved son. Krista was in that audience, and saw how Kerry attended not just to her role on stage but to bringing a beautifully racially mixed audience to participating and reflecting together. So this conversation has been a while in coming. It is rich with grace and surprising angles of insight — on the roles we all learn to play in the stories of the lives that we are given, and the evolution that is possible in how we assume those characters and leave them behind and grow them up. This episode of On Being was produced with consideration of the ongoing SAG-AFTRA strike and with external legal guidance. In distributing this episode, we attest to our belief that no statements made involve promotion of struck work in violation of the SAG-AFTRA Strike Order.Kerry Washington is the author of a new memoir, Thicker Than Water, and founder of the production company Simpson Street. Her many credits include the television series Little Fires Everywhere, the Broadway play — and Netflix film — American Son, and the film Django Unchained. She starred as Olivia Pope on seven seasons of the hit TV series Scandal. Find the transcript for this show at onbeing.org.______Sign up for The Pause — a Saturday morning companion to the podcast season.
