El verano ya está aquí. Siempre lo digo, pero es verdad, el tiempo pasa demasiado rápido, sobre todo cuando ya tenemos cierta edad. Pero no pasa nada. Lo importante es afrontarlo con naturalidad y, si puede ser, aprendiendo cosas nuevas. Y eso es lo que vamos a seguir haciendo hoy gracias a una noticia de Radio Nacional de España. Además, esta vez toca un tema del que no habíamos hablado nunca, la prostitución. Y como siempre, antes de entrar en la noticia, es importante entender el contexto, porque la prostitución en España es un tema complejo y, al mismo tiempo, muy presente en la sociedad. Para empezar, hay que saber que en España la prostitución no está regulada de forma clara. Es decir, no es completamente legal, pero tampoco es directamente ilegal. Lo que sí es ilegal son algunas actividades relacionadas con la prostitución. En concreto, estoy hablando de la explotación, la falta de respeto hacia derechos básicos o el tráfico de personas. Por eso, muchas situaciones quedan en una zona gris, en una zona intermedia entre lo legal y lo ilegal. Vamos ahora con algunos detalles. Se calcula que en España hay miles de mujeres en situación de prostitución, aunque es difícil tener cifras exactas, porque muchas lo hacen en condiciones muy precarias o invisibles. Además, una parte importante de estas mujeres son extranjeras, y en muchos casos llegan en situaciones vulnerables. Aquí aparece una diferencia clave. No todas las personas que ejercen la prostitución lo hacen en las mismas condiciones. Algunas hablan de decisión personal, pero otras lo hacen por necesidad económica, por falta de alternativas o, en los peores casos, bajo presión o directamente obligadas por las mafias de la prostitución. Y ahí es donde entran temas como la explotación o la trata, que son delitos muy graves. En España, este debate es muy intenso. Hay personas y colectivos que defienden que la prostitución debería regularse como un trabajo, para proteger mejor a quienes la ejercen. Otros, en cambio, consideran que siempre implica una forma de violencia y que debería prohibirse completamente. Mientras tanto, la realidad es que existe y forma parte del día a día en muchas ciudades. Puede aparecer en distintos contextos: en la calle, en pisos privados o en locales. Y también en internet, donde muchas personas se anuncian. Por eso, cuando aparece una noticia como la de hoy, no se habla solo de un caso puntual. Se habla de algo que conecta con temas más amplios: la desigualdad, la vulnerabilidad, la ley y la forma en que una sociedad decide proteger —o no— a las personas que están en situaciones más difíciles. Con esta idea en mente, ahora sí, vamos a escuchar la noticia con atención. “En Madrid detenidas 5 mujeres por organizar rifas, rifas, ¿eh?, de mujeres, en un prostíbulo del barrio de Tetuán. Las mujeres eran obligadas a trabajar sin descanso y bajo amenazas. El trato era especialmente humillante y degradante, hasta tal punto que en ocasiones eran ofrecidas como premio en rifas para saldar otras deudas. También obligaban a las chicas a consumir drogas si el cliente así lo demandaba. Había ofertas especiales. Cristina Hernández es portavoz de la Policía Nacional. Las mujeres debían trabajar las 24 horas del día durante 7 días a la semana, aún estando enfermas o con el periodo, teniendo la obligación de realizar todo tipo de servicios, degradando su persona a un mero premio en una rifa como moneda de cambio por una reparación o mercancía que estaba de oferta. Las pesquisas comenzaron en enero. El prostíbulo operaba desde hace 11 años. Tenía una página web propia, aunque también se anunciaba en páginas de contactos con más de 100.000 seguidores. Una mujer era la responsable y lo visitaba dos veces al día. Otras cuatro le ayudaban en la gestión, cobrando y suministrando sustancias. Todas ellas han sido arrestadas.” Espero que lo hayas entendido bien, aunque hemos escuchado alguna palabra complicada, como rifa o pesquisa. Así que, para seguir avanzando, creo que lo mejor es que empecemos a explicar esos términos más difíciles. Rifa Una rifa es un juego o sorteo en el que las personas compran un número o un boleto y solo una gana un premio. En el colegio hicieron una rifa para recaudar dinero para el viaje. Compré dos números de la rifa, a ver si tengo suerte. Prostíbulo Un prostíbulo es un lugar donde se practica la prostitución, es decir, donde se ofrecen servicios sexuales a cambio de dinero. La policía cerró un prostíbulo ilegal en el centro de la ciudad. Ese edificio funcionaba como prostíbulo durante años. Amenaza Una amenaza es una acción o una palabra que intenta dar miedo a alguien para obligarle a hacer algo. Recibió amenazas después de denunciar la situación. No puedes actuar bajo amenazas, tienes que decidir libremente. Humillante Algo humillante es algo que hace sentir a una persona inferior, avergonzada o sin valor. Fue muy humillante que se rieran de él delante de toda la clase. No quiero volver a pasar por una situación tan humillante. Degradante Algo degradante es algo que quita dignidad a una persona, que la hace sentir mal o menos importante como ser humano. Trabajar en esas condiciones es completamente degradante. Nadie debería soportar un trato degradante en su trabajo. Saldar una deuda Saldar una deuda significa pagar lo que debes, resolver una obligación económica o un compromiso pendiente. Tuvo que trabajar varios meses para saldar la deuda que tenía. Vendió su coche para saldar todas sus deudas. Periodo El periodo puede significar varias cosas, pero en este contexto se refiere a la menstruación, un proceso natural en el cuerpo de la mujer. Durante el periodo, algunas mujeres tienen más cansancio. No se encontraba bien porque estaba con el periodo. Mero premio La expresión mero premio significa algo que se considera solo un objeto, sin valor humano o personal, como si fuera simplemente algo que se gana. No quiero ser un mero premio, quiero decidir por mí mismo. Tratar a alguien como un mero premio es una falta de respeto. Pesquisas Las pesquisas son investigaciones, especialmente hechas por la policía o por personas que buscan descubrir la verdad. Las pesquisas duraron varios meses antes de encontrar al culpable. Gracias a las pesquisas, se aclaró todo el caso. Página de contactos Una página de contactos es un sitio web donde las personas se anuncian para conocer a otras o para ofrecer o buscar relaciones. Se conocieron a través de una página de contactos. Hoy en día mucha gente utiliza páginas de contactos para ligar. Por cierto, ligar es buscar una relación amorosa o sexual. Antes se salía a los bares a ligar, a buscar pareja, pero ahora mucha gente lo hace a través de aplicaciones como Tinder. Venga, escuchamos la noticia de nuevo. “En Madrid detenidas 5 mujeres por organizar rifas, rifas, ¿eh?, de mujeres, en un prostíbulo del barrio de Tetuán. Las mujeres eran obligadas a trabajar sin descanso y bajo amenazas. El trato era especialmente humillante y degradante, hasta tal punto que en ocasiones eran ofrecidas como premio en rifas para saldar otras deudas. También obligaban a las chicas a consumir drogas si el cliente así lo demandaba. Había ofertas especiales. Cristina Hernández es portavoz de la Policía Nacional. Las mujeres debían trabajar las 24 horas del día durante 7 días a la semana, aún estando enfermas o con el periodo, teniendo la obligación de realizar todo tipo de servicios, degradando su persona a un mero premio en una rifa como moneda de cambio por una reparación o mercancía que estaba de oferta.

Una mujer era la responsable y lo visitaba dos veces al día. Otras cuatro le ayudaban en la gestión, cobrando y suministrando sustancias. Todas ellas han sido arrestadas.” Mucho mejor ahora, estoy seguro. Así que, estamos preparados para una nueva versión de la noticia, la mía, utilizando la mayor cantidad de sinónimos posibles. Vamos allá. En Madrid, la policía ha arrestado a cinco mujeres acusadas de organizar sorteos en los que ofrecían a otras mujeres como si fueran premios. Los hechos ocurrieron en un local del barrio de Tetuán, donde, según la investigación, se desarrollaba esta actividad ilegal desde hacía tiempo. Las víctimas se encontraban en una situación muy dura. No tenían libertad y eran forzadas a trabajar continuamente, sin pausas, bajo presión y con intimidaciones constantes. El trato que recibían era extremadamente ofensivo y atentaba contra su dignidad. En algunos casos, incluso eran utilizadas como recompensa en estos sorteos para pagar otras obligaciones pendientes. Además, las responsables obligaban a las mujeres a tomar sustancias cuando los clientes lo solicitaban. Incluso existían promociones especiales, algo que muestra hasta qué punto se había normalizado una situación totalmente abusiva. Según explicó la portavoz de la Policía Nacional, las víctimas debían desempeñar su actividad todos los días, a cualquier hora, sin importar su estado de salud. Aunque estuvieran enfermas o en condiciones físicas complicadas, tenían que seguir trabajando. Se les exigía aceptar cualquier encargo, reduciendo su valor como personas y tratándolas como si fueran simplemente un objeto que se puede intercambiar por productos o servicios. La investigación comenzó a principios de año. El establecimiento llevaba funcionando más de una década y contaba con presencia en internet. Tenía su propio sitio web y también se promocionaba en plataformas digitales con un gran número de seguidores. La organización estaba dirigida por una mujer que supervisaba el lugar varias veces al día. Otras cuatro personas colaboraban en el funcionamiento diario, encargándose de la administración, el dinero y la distribución de drogas. Finalmente, todas ellas han sido detenidas por su implicación en estos hechos. Perfecto. Escuchamos la noticia por última vez y te cuento más cosas interesantes. “En Madrid detenidas 5 mujeres por organizar rifas, rifas, ¿eh?, de mujeres, en un prostíbulo del barrio de Tetuán. Las mujeres eran obligadas a trabajar sin descanso y bajo amenazas. El trato era especialmente humillante y degradante, hasta tal punto que en ocasiones eran ofrecidas como premio en rifas para saldar otras deudas. También obligaban a las chicas a consumir drogas si el cliente así lo demandaba. Había ofertas especiales. Cristina Hernández es portavoz de la Policía Nacional.

Una mujer era la responsable y lo visitaba dos veces al día. Otras cuatro le ayudaban en la gestión, cobrando y suministrando sustancias. Todas ellas han sido arrestadas.” Para terminar, vale la pena ir un poco más allá y mirar lo que sucede en otros países europeos, porque la situación de la prostitución no es igual en todas partes. En Europa no existe un único modelo. Cada país ha tomado una decisión diferente sobre cómo gestionar esta realidad. Por ejemplo, hay países como Alemania o los Países Bajos, donde la prostitución está legalizada y regulada como una actividad económica. Esto significa que existen normas, controles y, en teoría, protección legal para las personas que la ejercen. En otros países, como Francia o Suecia, el enfoque es distinto. Allí no se castiga tanto a la persona que ejerce la prostitución, sino al cliente. Es lo que se conoce como el modelo abolicionista. La idea es reducir la demanda y, al mismo tiempo, considerar que muchas personas están en situación de vulnerabilidad. Luego están países donde la situación es más ambigua, poco definida, como ocurre en España. Aquí, como hemos visto antes, no existe una regulación clara. No está completamente legalizada ni totalmente prohibida, y eso hace que muchas situaciones se muevan en una especie de zona gris. Si comparamos estos modelos, vemos que ninguno es perfecto. En los países donde está regulado, hay más control, pero también se critica que puede facilitar situaciones de explotación si no se vigila bien. En los países donde se penaliza al cliente, la intención es proteger a las personas más vulnerables, pero a veces la actividad se hace más clandestina, más difícil de controlar. Y en lugares como España, donde no hay una normativa clara, el problema es precisamente ese: la falta de claridad. Esto puede dejar a muchas personas sin protección suficiente y hace más difícil distinguir entre situaciones voluntarias y situaciones de abuso. Por eso, cuando escuchamos una noticia como la de hoy, no se trata solo de un caso aislado. Nos obliga a pensar en un debate mucho más amplio: cómo una sociedad responde ante situaciones complejas, cómo protege a las personas más vulnerables y qué papel juega la ley en todo esto. Y ahora, como hacemos siempre para terminar, repasamos las palabras y expresiones que hemos aprendido hoy. Rifa: un juego o sorteo en el que las personas compran un número o un boleto y solo una gana un premio. Prostíbulo: lugar donde se practica la prostitución, es decir, donde se ofrecen servicios sexuales a cambio de dinero.

Another segment where I show you Leftism at work, which means it fails. That was a trick. Leftists don't work, Silly!Leftism is LA-ZY!Trump is the KING of workarounds. Democrats try their skullduggery, and Trump kick ‘em where it hurts.How frustrating it is for Democrats to try so hard to stop Trump and he just gets more powerful!I see why they are INSANE and want to attack anything MAGA.Have you seen MAGA people fighting back? Literally knocking Leftists out.ALL OVER THE WORLD.The world is getting Trumpified!The Iran deal was struck. Will it last. If it doesn't, then Iran will have HELL to pay.Trump is not playing around. Democrats claimed that Trump gave into Iranian demands. Sure he did. We can believe tha.That information is as reliable as we didn't fund gain of function. Because how all winners work. They get you by the yin/yang then GIVE UPAnd why wouldn't Trump give up. Iran has no navy, air force.Buckle up, because today we're diving headfirst into the geopolitical equivalent of watching a bully pick a fight with the wrong guy… then spend the next round begging for his mommy while his wallet's on fire. Iran's out here sending more mixed signals than a Tinder date who can't decide if she's ghosting you or proposing marriage. One minute they're chest-thumping about their mighty empire, the next they're quietly hoping Trump doesn't notice them long enough to reload. I don't lose sleep over their leadership vacuum—seems like they've got about as much coherent direction as a room full of cats chasing laser pointers. But here's what I do know: you keep poking the guy who wrote the modern playbook on “maximum pressure,” and eventually you're not getting a sternly worded letter. You're getting precision-guided consequences. And let me tell you, the precision has been surgical. While the usual chorus of cable news geniuses and Leftist foreign policy “experts” were busy declaring Trump's strategy a disaster, he was busy turning Iran's economy into a cautionary tale for anyone thinking about messing with American interests.

Abby, Patrick, and Dan kick off Ordinary Unhappiness's Summer of Narcissism series! In this first episode of many, the three reckon with how talk of “narcissism” and “narcissists” is ubiquitous in contemporary culture, from therapy sessions to self-help-books to popular media to op-eds to the dating scene and beyond. Yet as Abby, Patrick, and Dan explore, “narcissism” in practice seems to mean radically different things to different people, gets invoked for wildly different purposes, and is hotly debated, with plentiful disagreements, even among specialists in any given field, let alone across disciplines. At the same time, the idea of narcissism speaks powerfully to people as they navigate personal relationships and struggle to make sense of group behaviors. Narcissism, in other words, is a quintessentially overdetermined concept, with simultaneously clinical, theoretical, and all-too-personal implications, and one that raises philosophical, political, and painfully practical questions about the relationship between normality and pathology, the individual and the collective, the clinical and the polemical, and more besides. It's both the beginning of a deep dive into the meanings, history, and stakes of a much used – and much-abused – buzzword and also a great (re)introduction to the Ordinary Unhappiness project and what it means to think psychoanalytically in general.

Unlike your favourite rom-com, dating and romance can be messy and complicated. Recently, the amazing Danni Stewart, producer, artist, and member of the All The Best family (because no one ever really leaves ATB, right?), launched a new podcast called Crip Love, focused on the intersection of disability and love. … initially it was gonna be a much more conventional, traditional kind of podcast, but along the way it transformed into something else. It kind of evolved into what I think of as more of an art project, than a podcast… – Danni This week, we play four clips from this beautiful and heartfelt art project, which seeks to challenge stereotypes about people with disabilities. Ava and Mei Lin Interview In this first clip, we follow Ava and Meilin, whose shared passion for art, their little quirkiness and mutual admiration blossomed into a beautiful love story. Eva and Dick Interview When Eva swore off dating and agreed to one last Tinder date, she didn’t expect to meet Dick. Refusing to hide who they were, both embraced radical honesty about their lives, identities, and trauma from the very beginning. “ I was at that point where I realised that you’ve got to be a million percent yourself. And I didn’t want to pretend that I’m somebody I’m not, ’cause I was sick of people expecting me to be somebody different, especially being neurodivergent.” Erin and Lee Interview It all started with a university party and a webcam striptease. Sixteen years later, the fling they thought might not last is still going strong. Today, Erin and Lee share the responsibilities of daily life in ways that work for them: Erin takes on much of the household’s mental load, while Lee handles physical tasks, which can be difficult for Erin as a wheelchair user. Together, they’ve built their own version of a happily ever after. Plum and Cherry interview From horror games, Pitbull lip-sync performances and an 18-hour Discord call, Plum and Cherry’s relationship grew from the very differences that first set them apart. This story is not only a testament to how opposites can attract, but also how taking a chance on someone unexpected can be the key to finding the Cherry to your Plum. The clips you heard in today’s episode were produced by Danni Stewart. The Music was by Breanna Jones and Paul MacAdam from Library Siesta. This series was produced with the support of Create NSW. You can listen at https://criplove.net where there will be captions, and you will also see the beautiful artwork of Emma Pham … or listen wherever you get your podcast.

Organic gets written off every few years. Too slow. Too hard to measure. But for Tinder, Primark and Channel 4, owned content is anything but an afterthought. In this panel, SocialChain's Eve Young sat down with Madeline Riley, and Aaron Gillies to unpack how organic has become a creative engine for cultural relevance, community connection and smarter paid decisions. From repeatable formats to reactive comments, pressure tests to IRL moments engineered for the feed, the session proved that the best organic strategies build the brand, shape the work and tell you what people actually care about.

Most of my conversations and meetings, lately, have been in Arizona - one from Bumble, one from Tinder and one from Hinge as I was in Arizona for 3 weeks visiting grandkids. I have recenty entered into two conversations from Bumble in the Seattle area. (Surprise, Surprise!) Sadly each of them (Artizona and Seattle) are still grieving the loss of a partner within the past 6 months to 1 1/2 years, which I do not understand why the universe is putting these people in my path to meeting someone that has the mental and emotional capacity to be fully open to a parter - such a mystery to me.
Nebraska, 2017: After a successful first date with a girl called Audrey, 24 year old Sydney Loofe headed out for their second. Only, after this date, Sydney vanished. The following day a search was launched, but that soon turned into a manhunt as it became clear this was a murder case.The suspect developed from the mysterious Audrey, to a couple with a history of crime. But instead of talking to Police, they ran, leaving a trail of clues and videos on the way. And as the case progressed, investigators realised there was something very dark going on…Resources:LGBT Archives Project - https://lgbtarchiveslouisiana.org/https://linktr.ee/eleanornealeresourcesFollow Outlore Podcast here:YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@EleanorNealeInsta - @outlorepodcast https://www.instagram.com/outlorepodcast/?__d=16d TikTok - @outlorepodcast https://www.tiktok.com/@outlorepodcast A Moth MGMT production

I'm Lesley Logan, Pilates instructor and fitness business coach. I've trained thousands of people around the world and the number one thing I see stopping people from achieving anything is self-doubt. My friends, action brings clarity and it's the antidote to fear. Each week, my guest will bring bold, executable, intrinsic and targeted steps that you can use to put yourself first and Be It Till You See It. It's a practice, not a perfect. Let's get started. Lesley Logan 0:58 Welcome back to the Be It Till You See It interview recap where my co-host in life, Brad, and I are going to dig into the gracious convoy I had with Clare Solly in our last episode.Lesley Logan 1:06 If you didn't listen, you missed out on the third time. Clare Solly has been, she's one of few people who've been on three times.Brad Crowell 1:13 She is, but I think she's been on way more than that, because she's done recaps for me and all sorts of stuff. So, as a guest three times, yes, but longtime listeners will definitely know who Clare is. Clare and Lesley go way, way back, before I was in the picture, by like years.Lesley Logan 1:32 We go back to like 2001.Brad Crowell 1:33 But way, you go back to 2001? So, like, I think I was still, what? 2001 we were graduating from high school.Lesley Logan 1:45 I went to college in 2001 as well.Brad Crowell 1:48 That's when you met, your first year in college.Lesley Logan 1:50 Yeah, I got a job. I was broke.Brad Crowell 1:53 I was broke. Well, amazing. Yeah, well, anyway, I was listening to your pod, and the two of you are hilarious, because it's like blah-blah-blah, just 100% riffing off each other. Lesley Logan 2:13 See why people are like, "I'm going to pod my best friend, and we're just going to talk about things." Because inevitably something good is going to come out of it. Oh yeah, you said, "Be organized," to like, what are we talking about? Which is like, so we originally, the team was like, "Do we want her on the pod," and I was like, "What will we talk about?" And then she and I were like, doing whatever recaps it is, she's like, "We should talk about ending," whatever, it was, and I was like, "Okay, great," exiting, "The team will be thrilled to know that we have a topic."Brad Crowell 2:38 You picked a topic. Lesley Logan 2:39 We did it. You guys, just so you know, we love that you listen. We love that you share those with friends. Another way you can support this podcast is by being an OPC member. If you go to onlinepilatesclasses.com, you can actually check out what we do. We have real Pilates for real bodies, it's the workout that works for you. There's lots of different ways to do it, and people are often like, "How can I support this show?" And Brad and I have talked about, like, do we do a commercial-free one where people pay?Brad Crowell 3:04 Yeah, we thought about that, like having a second one that's no ads, like all these different things.Lesley Logan 3:08 No, we're not doing more work. What actually would be really meaningful for us is, if you're going to give us money, we want you to actually get something out of it, not just like listening to us take up space. We really want you to actually take time for yourself and move your body, and that's what OPC is all about. It's actually about you having time for yourself. The classes are 2% of your day, and you get to compare yourself to yourself. So, go to OPC, I guess, what do they do? Go to opc.me/40?Brad Crowell 3:34 Just go to opc.meLesley Logan 3:36 Oh, great. Do that, even easier. Okay. Today is June 11th and it's Certified Nurses Week, aka CNA Week. It takes place on Thursday of the second full week of June. I really do love.Brad Crowell 3:50 The Thursday of the second full week.Lesley Logan 3:53 I love when it's not.Brad Crowell 3:54 Of the month of June.Lesley Logan 3:55 It can't be, it can't be the second Thursday. It has to be the second Thursday, the Thursday of the second full week.Brad Crowell 4:01 Yeah.Lesley Logan 4:01 So, Thursday can't be, it can't be the eighth ever. Brad Crowell 4:04 Because if the week starts on a Wednesday, that first Thursday does not count. If the month's first week starts on a Wednesday, or like not a full week, right? Then the first Thursday might not count.Lesley Logan 4:17 Right. Brad Crowell 4:17 Right. So, the Thursday of the second full week. Lesley Logan 4:22 I think that's complicated. Instead of saying. Brad Crowell 4:27 Because there might not be a second Thursday.Lesley Logan 4:29 But what they, well, they could just say the second Thursday of June.Brad Crowell 4:31 No, it might not be the second Thursday.Lesley Logan 4:33 No, if June 2nd is a Thursday, then June 9th is a Thursday, that's the second Thursday. I think they made it complicated.Brad Crowell 4:40 But that wouldn't be it, it would be on the next week.Lesley Logan 4:42 So, listener, hold on, you mean to tell me that people don't grab the 30-day calendar and go one, two?Brad Crowell 4:52 Not necessarily, if it's not a full week, that's the caveat here.Lesley Logan 4:56 I think that's crazy. I'm telling you, I always, when we do FYS, I don't go skipping the first Friday because it wasn't a full week, I do all the Fridays.Brad Crowell 5:08 I am with you on this. I am agreeing with you. This is not simple.Lesley Logan 5:12 It's not simple to be a CNA either. So, it takes place on the second full week of June. Do you like that? Like that lead back, is a week full of, oh, because they also want a week. Okay, notice.Brad Crowell 5:26 It's a full week.Lesley Logan 5:26 It's a full week of celebrations, but it starts on a Thursday, it's a full week of celebrations honoring the hard work. Do you all want to know why I think I'm ADHD? Here's the autism. I'm so stuck on this second Thursday. This year it is held from June 11th to June 17th. Certified nursing assistants began working under the Red Cross program during World War One, and have served alongside US Army nurses. Hundreds of young women were trained to care for wounded soldiers in reserve, field-based, and civilian hospitals. Did you know that before 1987 nursing assistants were not required to have a formal education?Brad Crowell 6:01 I did not know that.Lesley Logan 6:03 Okay, so who's seen The Pit? Because there's actually a whole episode on the medics. Did you know that?Brad Crowell 6:08 Well, this is why I was asking you what the name of the show is that you're watching right now. I yelled it across the house earlier when I was like, "What's that show called?"Lesley Logan 6:15 I'm hyper-vigilant, but okay. One, I'm not new to The Pit. It's already like, I don't know, filming season three or something like that, and won many awards. All of my friends talk about it week after week when it first came out.Brad Crowell 6:26 But you're new to it.Lesley Logan 6:27 I'm new to it, because as much as I appreciate the nostalgia of a weekly show that we all talk about, I don't have that capacity. If I'm going to sit down and watch a show, I want to binge through, like I really like that I can, and all that stuff anyways, because I won't. The next week I'll forget, and then I'll be like, spoiler alerts that I'm trying not to watch, like when Love is Blind was dropping in increments. I'm like, "Fuck, I have to get off my Instagram, because the spoilers are coming." So, because it's spoiled, and I didn't pay attention to it because it wasn't what I was clicking on, I saw on a plane yesterday, I watched 10 episodes in a row, I'm obsessed, and the head nurse is like kicking ass. But they did have a whole episode on this guy talking about what the first field medicals were and how they became one. Anyways, I also believe, maybe it wasn't the nurses, that might have been the women who were doing the phone lines, but they had to pay for their own uniforms and things like that, so there's all this different stuff. Anyways, you guys, we have a nursing shortage in the United States of America because it sucks to work in healthcare. The only people making money in healthcare is CVS and the insurance companies. This is not sponsored by them, but you know they've got the money, so come on over. So the reality is, please be kind to your nurses, we need every single one of them. I know it's frustrating when you have to go to, I wasn't even at the hospital, I was at a doctor's office, and they make me fill out this online check-in sheet every single time. I have to fill in my allergies, my first period, my family stuff, every single time. And the second time I went in a month, I said, "Hey guys, is there any way where I can just tap a box that says nothing has changed, everything is the same, there's zero. Brad Crowell 8:12 I just felt that I wasn't filling it out.Lesley Logan 8:14 Yeah, like the only thing that's different is my last cycle. I'll give you that, because it's a female doctor, anyway. But I said, "Look, I'm not trying to, I'm just here." But be nice to them, be nice to them, it is their CNA week, so go.Brad Crowell 8:29 So, there are apparently on average 190,000 annual openings for registered nurses each year, projected through 2032.Lesley Logan 8:42 Wow.Brad Crowell 8:43 Due to retirements, burnouts, and rising care demands. And while the workforce is growing, it cannot keep pace with the needs of an aging boomer population.Lesley Logan 8:54 Oh, this boomer population, man, they just, love you, because some of you are boomers, but, man.Brad Crowell 9:00 Yeah. So, anyway, nurses are very important, and it's a high-stress job, so all the props to the nurses out there.Lesley Logan 9:10 Yeah, okay. Upcoming travel notes, you guys, we're around, we're sticking.Brad Crowell 9:14 Yeah, we're home for a minute, and it's nice.Lesley Logan 9:17 Kind of at home. Although, although, when you're watching this, what day is this? Brad Crowell 9:21 We are June 11th.Lesley Logan 9:22 Oh, yeah. No, I'm home, solidly in the house.Brad Crowell 9:25 June and July, we're home.Lesley Logan 9:27 We might even foster a puppy or something like that.Brad Crowell 9:29 Yeah, we're gonna go take some dogs and hikes. We're rebuilding the van right now.Lesley Logan 9:34 We means Brad.Brad Crowell 9:35 We means Brad. Brad is rebuilding the van right now from the inside out, obviously.Lesley Logan 9:40 Well, the outside's done.Brad Crowell 9:41 Yeah. Well, not necessarily. Well, actually, I guess I'm adding a roof rack and I'm adding all the solar and all this extra stuff. So, like, we're getting fancy, and I got some really cool specs done for the interior, and we're, we're gonna be completely overhauling it before the summer tour, which is coming up, so tickets are definitely available. You can go to opc.me/tour we're actually going to be doing a Saturn's ring loop around the middle of the country, like Lesley said last week, which I thought was hilarious.Lesley Logan 10:08 Oh, just so you know, our tours are again sponsored by Balanced Body and Contrology, so we're also bringing the Contrology Reformer, Mat and Spine Corrector. Brad Crowell 10:17 We sure are. Lesley Logan 10:17 They all have some great prizes for you. I put another request in for the liner, because everyone loves it. It's so fun, easy to take with you. It's a really great community, and it's time, and you also can go to multiple locations on this tour, because we are on a status ring, but that also means, since the map isn't 3D, we're really just, you know.Brad Crowell 10:37 Okay, okay. I think they got the idea. The point is, we're going in a circle.Lesley Logan 10:41 Stops are within a couple of miles.Brad Crowell 10:42 It's a squeeze circle.Lesley Logan 10:43 It's a squeeze circle,Brad Crowell 10:44 Yeah, a couple of hours, several stops within a couple of hours, not a couple of miles.Lesley Logan 10:48 A couple of hours.Brad Crowell 10:49 But anyway, the go to opc.me/tour we're doing 14, I think it's 14 stops, and we're.Lesley Logan 10:55 I have no idea, it's not we're going to this, I haven't even seen the list.Brad Crowell 10:58 It's good, it's gonna be great, we're excited, we're visiting some new spots, revisiting some old spots, and can't wait to see everyone. So, if you want to come have a Pilates party with us, join us on tour. And then, if you're new here, Lesley teaches a mentorship program for teachers, it's called eLevate, and we might be sold out at this point, but we only do one turn, one round of it per year, and next year we're doing 16 spots, and it's you can find all the information about that at Lesley logan.co/elevate and also we have almost completed the full project here of these flash cards that we've been on a mission for for six years, the last that came out last year. Now we're working on, like, you know, like a.Lesley Logan 11:41 Collector's box that has like a cute little stand. I don't know, I've got some ideas. It might take us a little longer than we thought.Brad Crowell 11:47 Yeah, it's not as much of a priority, that's for sure. But you should go check out the cards themselves, because they're epic. Go to opc.me/flashcards, opc.me/flashcards.Lesley Logan 11:56 You know what, I wish maybe it's more of like somehow it's a stand where the you could put, you could put the card on the front or the back of this clear thing, and the back could be a magnifier.Brad Crowell 12:09 Oh, that's interesting.Lesley Logan 12:10 So, like, it, you could put the card in the front and of the slot, and it would just hold it up super cute, but if you put it on the behind, it would magnify it. For our perimenopausal ladies, I cannot get enough words on there and get the font to 10, so.Brad Crowell 12:24 That's why we linked back to the website on every card, because the website we can write as much as we want.Lesley Logan 12:29 And you can make it bigger.Brad Crowell 12:31 Yes, and you do that too. Cool. So, check this out. Go to opc.me/flashcards. Okay, so this week's charitable organization.Lesley Logan 12:38 Yes, yes, we made this change a couple weeks ago. Go back and listen if you want to know why we made the change. We don't have time for it today. June is Pride Month, you guys, and that means I wanted to, I thought it'd be interesting on our recaps to just talk about different LGBTQ IA charities that are doing great work for that community, because that community right now needs all the support it can get, because it is fighting the good fight and trying to help people. The whole community is just being hit with laws left, right, and center in the country. So, I want it, in the US, anyways, and so I wanted to highlight the Trevor Project. So, the Trevor Project was found in 1998 in West Hollywood, California, by James Lecesne.Brad Crowell 13:20 Lecesne, I think, Lecesne.Lesley Logan 13:21 Lecesne or you don't think it's Lecesne.Brad Crowell 13:24 Actually, I think it's Lecesne.Lesley Logan 13:25 Yeah, Lecesne.Brad Crowell 13:26 Yeah, James.Lesley Logan 13:31 Randy Stone, creators of the film Trevor. The Trevor Project is an American non-profit organization, is leading national organization providing crisis intervention, suicide prevention services to LGBTQ young people aged 13 to 24 That's a really, really tough at age, but you know it's really important that they have support. The organization offers a confidential telephone helpline, the Traverse Space Forum, and the educational programs, while reporting increase revenues and dedicating 80% of its budgets to programs. That's huge for a big charity, as them 80% to go like that. This is what we're looking at when we're looking at charities, you know. It has faced criticism regarding its promotion of gender ideology and allegations of mismanagement. So, okay, no, it's perfect, but I do, I do, I've heard of the project with different groups of different podcasts talking about how it can be helpful, and so, you know, I definitely hope it hope it helps people who are listening, who have friends whose kids or loved ones who need this help. Brad, why don't you tell what you liked about their website?Brad Crowell 14:28 Yeah, well, if you want to support them, go to their website, thetrevorproject.org thetrevorproject.org and I was looking at their website and learning a little more about them, and a pop-up happened, and it said, hey, if you need a quick exit from our website, you can just hit the escape key three times, and I was like, what, I'm really interested about this, so I tried it, you know, 123, bam, it closed the tab that I was on with The Trevor Project, and it opened Google, and so if you are looking for support from the Trevor Trevor Project, and you're concerned about someone barging in on you, you know, or you don't want to share that information with the people that you might live with or be around, what an amazing way for them to think ahead, and I mean it's pretty awesome.Lesley Logan 15:18 Speaking of The Pit, there was this one episode about human trafficking, and they were giving this girl a pen before they gave her the pen, because they thought the person that she was with was trafficking her. They opened up the pen to show her that on the in the ink part is the phone number, so the pen just looks like this like stupid pharmaceutical pen, but when you open it up, it actually had a helpline. And so I just think that, like, I love that groups are getting really creative with how can they actually help people, because just putting, you know, a flyer in a place, like, here you go, it's like no one can take that.Brad Crowell 15:51 Well, it's like it's like in, in the when we fly around the world, and we're in the airports, there's not just signs everywhere there, but they are there. Are hidden posters on the inside of the bathroom stalls that are about trafficking, and it says, hey, and it's in like multiple languages, like, like half a dozen languages. It's like, if you are being trafficked, here's the helpline, how to get support right now.Lesley Logan 16:16 Yeah.Brad Crowell 16:17 And you can call a number if you have access to a phone, of course.Lesley Logan 16:19 Oh my gosh, there was a bar in Miami that's like all these bars, they have, if you order an angel drink, they call it the drink, it's called angel, like, oh, I'd like to order the angel shot, then that tells the waiter that you feel unsafe with the date that you're on, and they will help you know you get out of that situation, which is amazing, like, they like, I don't know how they're helping, like maybe they call you a ride or something like that, something like that. I don't quote quote me, but I know the word was like angel, I guess. If the men find out what the word is for, you know, I don't, that's probably not so. The street was probably only in the women's restrooms, but yeah.Brad Crowell 16:53 The angel shot, it's a coded phrase used to signal bar staff that you feel unsafe and need help, such as a bad date.Lesley Logan 16:59 So, going back to the Trevor Project, you know, there's different things you can do, like if you want to do things more local to you, we, whenever we order, whenever you come to a retreat at our house, if you're in eLevate, things like that, we actually order from Bronze Cafe, and proceeds from their restaurant go to support the mental health of LGBTQ community in Las Vegas, so it's June is Pride Month, so you're gonna find all these different things around where you are that are gonna help people in this community, obviously, try to do it all year long, because they need it, but I just think that, like, it's a real shame that this group of people is being marginalized and made the reason why people's lives are so difficult. The trans community specifically, they're 2% of the population, and the actual 2% that is ruining people's lives across the world are the billionaires, those are the welfare people, those are the people who, like, I shared a post was showing, like, Amazon pays like 1.87% in taxes or something like that, it's like something stupid, Alphabet actually pays 10% that shocked me, I was like, they're not getting the best deal, like, so, so, anyways, if we all got together and supported people who are different than us and actually took out the small amount of people who are getting rich off of us, there will be a much different place. And then this group of people would actually get to live with human rights like the rest of us get to have. So, anyways.Brad Crowell 18:15 I just wanted to quickly check that stat. In the US, roughly one out of 10 identifies as LGBTQ as of 2024.Lesley Logan 18:23 Right, but trans is 2%Brad Crowell 18:25 Trans, trans, yeah, okay.Lesley Logan 18:26 Yes, but yeah. What I understand, you know, I know we're smart supposed to spend a lot of time on this, but the internet really pisses me off when these men are like, I'm not gonna have a gay kid.Brad Crowell 18:35 Right, like it's there choice.Lesley Logan 18:36 I shared this thing with you, this guy got this person to like, like, like, he's like, "Oh no, you, you choose to be gay. It's like, "Oh, okay, we'll be gay right now. He's like, "Be gay right now. He's like, "Oh no. He's like, "He's like, he's like, 'Well, you said you could choose, you choose to be gay, so be gay right now.' So the guy's like, "Okay, I choose to be attracted to you right now. He's like, "Yeah, well, I'm not gay, I can never choose to be gay, but you, you didn't.Brad Crowell 18:59 He just chose to be gay. He's like I'm only gay for like 10 seconds.Lesley Logan 19:02 Yeah, well, you're gay, so actually you're bisexual. It was such, was so well articulate, was so great. At any rate, it just shows that a lot of people have idiocies.Brad Crowell 19:13 Ridiculous.Lesley Logan 19:13 Fears, all this different stuff. And I think, like, the reality is that we have to make sure that children today, especially this group of people have love, support, and community, know that they are there's nothing wrong with them.Brad Crowell 19:24 Yeah.Lesley Logan 19:25 You know.Brad Crowell 19:26 Yeah. So.Lesley Logan 19:26 I could never imagine, I was bullied in school for having a big nose, for having big lips, for being poor, for my clothes being not like, I could never imagine, because when you're bullied for that, it changes, they change people, they get to somebody else, it changes all the time. To be bullied for who you're attracted to or how you identify? Holy fuck, that is relentless. That'd be non-stop. Anyways. Okay, well, we'll be right back.Brad Crowell 19:56 Thanks for sticking with us here.Lesley Logan 20:00 thetrevorproject.org, that was the linkBrad Crowell 20:00 Go to thetrevorproject.com yeah, all right. Brad Crowell 20:03 So let's talk about Clare Solly. Clare is a New York City-based actress, singer, novelist, and creative multi-hyphenate. She has self-published three women's fiction novels, is on the board of two theater companies in New York City, and currently works a day job she genuinely enjoys. Clare is also pursuing a PhD in creative writing, adding another chapter to her already wide-ranging creative career. I did not know she was doing that.Lesley Logan 20:32 Oh, she is. We're gonna call her Dr. Clare.Brad Crowell 20:36 Dr. Sally. Lesley Logan 20:37 I remember when she said, "I think I'm gonna do this. Do you think I'm crazy?" And I was like, "You're gonna do it anyways." That's when you know you have a real friend. It doesn't matter, I know you're gonna do it anyways. It doesn't matter. All right.Brad Crowell 20:54 Yeah. So, like I said, the two of you just beat off of each other. So, what was one of the one of the things that you loved, that she said.Lesley Logan 21:02 Oh my god, we got through so much, I think. I feel like, by the way, it's exiting, and it's a very, I find out of all the podcasts we've done, it's not just a theory, like she gave actual tangible things throughout the whole pod.Brad Crowell 21:17 Yeah, it was great.Lesley Logan 21:18 And it made me realize that we do the "Be It" action items, because in case someone's a little ethereal or a little esoteric, I wanted you to have tangible things to do.Brad Crowell 21:25 That's very true. That's why.Lesley Logan 21:26 That's why it exists, because of the woo-woo people are just like, get to know yourself, love everyone, and I wanted, like, okay, well, what do I do today? But this whole episode is like that. So she was talking about employer-employee relationships, so that's really what this is. We know not everybody works for someone else, so, but this is a great episode to present to your friend who's probably struggling with their boss, and sometimes you end up in one, right? Like, I have a girlfriend who's been an entrepreneur for decades, and now she's an employee again. So, she said the employer-employee relation does not inherently require a lifelong debt, and I think a lot of people who listen to this podcast, maybe not young kids today, because they've just seen it happen like they don't, they've not even, well, what they're saying is that the jobs don't even exist when they get older, but for those elder millennials and Gen X, like, where our parents had the same job forever. So, like.Brad Crowell 22:11 My dad just retired from 43 years at the same company.Lesley Logan 22:14 And just, I know we, I think we had it on the pod already, but how many people have retired since that person took over the job?Brad Crowell 22:20 When my dad retired, he asked the exit interview HR lady, "Hey, how many people have you had this interview with?" And she said, "Since Covid, five."Lesley Logan 22:34 FiveBrad Crowell 22:35 YeahLesley Logan 22:35 Only five.Brad Crowell 22:35 Only five.Lesley Logan 22:36 Five in six years. So that's how many people are retiring, which means a lot of them are leaving. But it does not inherently require lifelong debt, and I think that's really important, because I think especially, the majority of our listeners are women, we tend to worry about.Brad Crowell 22:51 I think we need to qualify that. What does lifelong debt mean in this context?Lesley Logan 22:56 Okay. I'm going to just say your parents on their vacation were worried about when they should tell their bosses that they were retiring, and I was like, "You don't," because somebody had left, and I was like, "You don't owe them that information, you're on vacation right now, you shouldn't even know that that person left." I was literally arguing with them, I'm like, "Why would you even go, 'Oh, I'm gonna retire too, so look for two people'? No, not your responsibility. It's their responsibility to be thinking about if people leave," and so that's what I would say.Brad Crowell 23:25 Yeah, I mean, lifelong debt, I would say, is just your entire life orients around the company that you work for. And I know how I operate, and that would be to pour myself into this company, whatever company that I'm working for. Lesley Logan 23:41 I did that for every company I worked for, I just kept being promoted because I poured so hard. They're like this girl doing so much, we should give her this next job.Brad Crowell 23:47 Yeah, and so, the employer-employee relationship does not inherently require a lifelong debt, meaning that, of course, when you're working for someone, do everything that's part of your role, but you don't owe them your life, right?Lesley Logan 24:04 Yeah, right. We were in Paris for four days. Let me tell you right now, they enjoy their life, they go to work. And our friend of ours who lives there, she's like, "Oh, it would be rude to eat at your desk, you literally have to eat in the lunch cafeteria."Brad Crowell 24:20 She works from home, and she goes into the office to have lunch with the group.Lesley Logan 24:24 Yeah, that's not even on her team, they're just the people of that office that she's at, because it's like rude to not be part of it. And she's like, "Yeah, you have a full hour-long lunch, and no matter what you've got going on, you sit there and you enjoy it." People really have a life, and I think there is a way to give 100% at work and then have a life, and I think that's a balance we're missing if you're in the States. If you're outside of the States, we travel a lot, I see you, you're doing a great job, you are living your life. But so let's go back to one thing she said, so she explained you don't actually owe the company anything, like, telling them where you're going.Brad Crowell 25:06 She was talking about actually, in this case, quitting, and you know, if they asked you like, "Well, where are you going to go work next?" Like, you don't need to tell them that.Lesley Logan 25:13 You don't actually have to, it's not a thing. And so, in fact, somebody asked L on demand, our agency member, because they were making a plan to leave, and they're like, "Well, how do I, do I tell them what I'm doing?" And she wrote, "No, you can just say, 'Thank you so much. As of this date, I'm no longer available for this role. I am still available and excited to do this part of my job.'" Because you actually don't need to tell them that you're gonna go run your own thing, especially like it's not, we tend to feel like we have to give them an excuse or a reason. It can just be that you're done. Done is a reason. Yeah, so it's your business. Lesley Logan 25:50 She also said you can be fully transparent about your feelings, but leaving is—it's when you're—it's not required. You can be, but you don't have to be. It's not required. So, the best policy she said is to just walk in and say, "I'm so sorry, I found X, Y, or Z," or "I found another job," and then keep it short and sweet. And I would say the shorter and sweeter the better, and try to do it in a succinct way so they're not the enemy and you're off to greener pastures. You never know if you have to come back.Brad Crowell 26:22 You guys were talking even about the, "Oh, they're paying me more," or whatever. Like, "This other company offered me this role, and they're offering me more money." But you don't even need to say anything like that, because that would then open up the conversation with the current company of, like, "Oh, well, we could pay you more." What if you actually just wanted to leave, you know? So you don't need to be building in an excuse. You can just say, "Hey, you know, I have to move on." You can give an excuse, but you don't need to. Brad Crowell 26:53 I had a very difficult time leaving my job because my old boss liked to sue people, and so I needed to come up with a reason that was acceptable so that he didn't think that I was going to go try to compete with him. Because if that happened, he was going to sue, he sues everybody. So I told him that I was going to focus on my family, and I left that open-ended.Lesley Logan 27:18 You know what, my last—the job that I left, they were litigious-ish because if certain trainers took clients, because they had a non-compete, which is not enforceable, and the non-solicitation as well, which means you couldn't solicit. But I was so afraid that they would think I was soliciting that I also said, "I'm focusing, my husband, you know, I don't need to work this much anymore." I just wanted them, it wasn't their business, and I didn't want them to be looking for something, you know. And we're still friendly, I still talk to everybody, one of my bosses there, like, it's so great. So it doesn't have to be a big deal. I think the gist of that topic is like you can literally, in two sentences or less, exit given the information that they need to process the paycheck and get to your next thing.Brad Crowell 28:08 Yeah, and when I was listening through the whole thing, I liked the idea of being gracious with the exit—like graceful, meaning short, succinct, and clear. And that's what Claire was talking about when exiting not on your terms, basically meaning you're fired. She said if you really want to hand-grenade things, you can, but it's a small world. The industries we all work in are small. Everyone knows everyone. If you have a tumultuous exit, word will get around, right? She said while being fired is definitely an ego stab in your heart, it is crucial to remain polite because the professional world is very small, even if the human instinct is to internalize blame. And what we will do effectively, because it's the human instinct, is internalize the blame. "What did I do wrong?" You know, and we keep reviewing it over and over again in our own minds, picking on ourselves effectively. She said, "Hey, let's turn it around to a positive instead of sitting there picking yourself apart. Maybe you can go and take this new time and learn a new skill." Alternatively, you can evaluate your peers by asking yourself, like, "What are the skills that I have? What can I add to my resume that makes me more excitable as a hire for the future?" So, really shifting back to working to put yourself back out there.Lesley Logan 29:34 Yeah, I think, going back a couple episodes ago, you have to feel your feelings. It's important to grieve that it's a loss, like even if you leave on your own terms, it's still a closure of something, so definitely do that.Brad Crowell 29:48 I always think about people who are almost arrogant, and I think in a situation like this, how lucky are they that they can look at someone firing them and go, "Well, it's your fucking loss, because I'm awesome." You know what I mean? Imagine that perspective versus, "Oh my god, what did I do wrong? Why are you firing me? It's my fault, I fucked up somewhere, I'm not even sure what I did wrong." Those are the two extremes. Maybe we can land in the middle and do ourselves a kindness and not beat ourselves up over it. Because I had to fire someone, and was this person perfect at their job? No. Were they coachable and teachable, and did we actually enjoy having them on the team? Yes. And ultimately, it wasn't because they fucked up a spreadsheet or a document that I had to fire them; I had to fire them because our company couldn't sustain paying them at the time, this many years ago, right? And so it was a shame and not fun, right? So it had nothing to do with her, and I wrote a glowing review.Lesley Logan 30:56 Yeah, no, and for the most part, especially if you're a boss listening to this, most people know, if you do it right and you're coaching correctly, people know that their job is not safe. So, in California, I have to write you up at least three times, because the employers' HR, when you let go of someone, they want to be like, "Here are the instances, here's what the thing was that you were supposed to do."Brad Crowell 31:21 Meaning they should be seeing it coming. "I've got two write-ups already, I know."Lesley Logan 31:25 Like, "Yeah, I'm in the hot seat," you know. And so now, just because you have three doesn't mean you're getting fired—like maybe they happen over 10 years, you know? One of them you fix, whatever. But especially if they're happening in a row, they're coming for it, they're looking for things to come at you with. So you should be watching for that. Lesley Logan 31:42 But you should also like—if I'm consistently having to remind you how to do something, or I'm questioning, like, if there's these things that you're being coached on in your job, and it's like, "Wow, you've been here a year, and we're still working on this" if you're a boss, they should not be blindsided by it if it has to do with the way that they're doing their job, because they're not mind readers. You actually have to tell them if they're doing their job well or not, and if they're not doing their job well, you have to tell them how to do it well to give them that opportunity. And if you don't do that, then they're gonna be blindsided. But if you're constantly re-coaching them on their job and bringing up, like, hey, even if you don't write them up, "Hey, this is the third time we've had to go over this, what's going on here?" Hopefully they're aware. Lesley Logan 32:22 Now, some people are dense and they don't get it. I fired people who yelled at me and all these different things—not like "my loss," but like, "How dare you," right? And I remember going, "You didn't see this coming, dude? This is our third write-up. You're not on time for your clients. What do you want me to do? You're not on time, you've not been on time multiple times."Brad Crowell 32:44 Yeah.Lesley Logan 32:45 This is on you. Brad Crowell 32:46 Yeah, exactly.Lesley Logan 32:47 If he had been taking the bus, I would have been like, "Okay, we got to find a new bus route, we got to find a new shift." Nope, this is all on him driving, you know. So, I think for the most, it doesn't always happen that way, but that's always my ideal goal, is like people know.Brad Crowell 33:01 I had someone try to write me up one time, and I told them that I would not sign the paperworkLesley Logan 33:05 You, you also don't have to sign.Brad Crowell 33:07 And I said, "I disagree with you 100%. I'm happy to talk to your boss about all of this, because I will not sign this."Lesley Logan 33:13 You don't have to sign, they still, you still got it, but you don't have to sign if you don't agree with it. That's true. Yeah, that's fine. It's all combo. Anyways, this is like, thank fucking God I'm not in an office. Jesus. Okay, hold on. She said more great things about exiting.Brad Crowell 33:29 Yes. Well, stick, stick around really quick. We'll be, we will be right back. Brad Crowell 33:34 All right, welcome back. So, let's talk about those "Be It" action items. If you're new here and you're like, "What the hell is that?" "Be It" is the Be It Till You See It podcast acronym, what bold, executable, intrinsic, or targeted action items can we take away from your convo? Claire said, "Hey, give yourself space." Okay, she explicitly warns against immediately jumping back into work after making an exit, whether you made it or they made it. She stated, "Make sure you give yourself a week or two off between jobs, because in any capacity, you have to decompress. It's just good for your mental state." She cautions against skipping this decompression phase, because when you immediately jump back into the next thing, you might actually already be angry or sad or frustrated, or whatever. She said she has rage-updated her resume before, and it just never works out very well.Lesley Logan 34:29 Sounds like if you get dumped, and then you go and do your Tinder or Hinge profile, it probably isn't gonna be as great as if you just waited a moment to be like, "Wow, that person wasn't so great for me. Let me.Brad Crowell 34:42 Yeah, don't rage-update your resume, it's hilarious. What about you? What was your big takeaway?Lesley Logan 34:45 II mean, personally, I never want to have to update a resume like that. I never want to do.Brad Crowell 34:50 I know we've had to update a resume to submit for some things for the business, and we're like, "Where is our resume? What did we.Lesley Logan 34:59 Now, Lex's job is like every so many months, go—because eventually, how long is the resume, you know? How many pages? Because I'm not vying for a job, but loans and stuff want things like that. Anyways, she said take a look at yourself and where you are, look at where you can improve and create an exit strategy. So I like this, because you might not like the job that you're at, you might be frustrated with where it's at, but this kind of is like taking a little bit of radical responsibility—like, where can I improve so that when I find the next place, I'm already a better person for it at the next job, you know? And that allows you to create an exit strategy as well. And I think this is kind of like, you know, if in anything you're wanting to leave, there's a reason you want to leave, and some of it's the situation, and some of it is ownership of how you could be a better person given the new situation, right? She compares this action to having an emergency strategy for a house fire, so you already know where your exits are, and I like that, right?Brad Crowell 36:01 She has some great tips, you know, especially if you know you're leaving and you had already taken things home, slowly start to bring them back to the office, not all at once, and vice versa. If you have things at the office, you could slowly start to take them home again, not all at once, because you're not trying to make your office look empty, but just practical stuff. Pretty cool.Lesley Logan 36:21 Because you never—I mean, even if you think you know your employers the most, like when I worked in, when I ran retail shops, if you gave us a two-week notice, our goal was to see how quickly we can get you a paycheck and end your shift before two weeks in your job, because it was an at-will state, so we could do that. So you put the two weeks in because then you get the better review, like, "Oh, they left and they gave notice," and all these different things, but especially in Pilates and in retail, you have clients, you have customers, so the longer you're there, the longer you can take client phone numbers, emails, different things. Like, we're protecting stuff, so we would just be like, "Out. Bye."Brad Crowell 37:02 Yeah, I think notoriously Netflix is like crazy. If you go in and you quit, before you get back to your desk, you're locked out of every, yeah.Lesley Logan 37:12 Yeah, no, I think it's even in their handbook of like what happens. Keith Olbermann is the one who—it's so funny because he's like, "I was on—they let me be on the air for three months, I could say whatever I wanted." But I do—you never—you just don't know how people are going to react to exits, so make sure that you have prepared well for the exit that you are in control of so that if they do decide, especially if you're an hourly employee or something like that, that they're changing it, you're not needing that money as the in-between, you know. Anyways, well, love it. I'm Lesley Logan.Brad Crowell 37:53 And I'm Brad Crowell.Lesley Logan 37:54 Thanks, Clare, for being our Be It Babe, ready to jump in. She'll be back because we'll have her at an interview.Brad Crowell 38:00 The Boomerang Buddy.Lesley Logan 38:01 Oh, I'm interviewing the person in two days, I better finish that book. I'm interviewing a really great doctor, and she's like, "I want to be in the Be It Book Club, and I want to be the recap person." So, Brad, you're unfortunately,unless you want to, you can join us for the recap if you want.Brad Crowell 38:19 It's fun.

How queer men in Kazakhstan navigate dating apps in a context of stigma, surveillance, and limited legal protections. It shows how platforms like Grindr, Hornet, Tinder, and VKontakte function as spaces where trust, visibility, and safety must be continuously negotiated. This episode explores how queer men in Kazakhstan navigate dating apps in contexts shaped by stigma, surveillance, and limited legal protections. Drawing on interviews and platform analysis in Shymkent and Almaty, the research challenges the idea of dating apps as neutral or purely liberating spaces, showing instead how they function as ‘ambivalent infrastructures' where connection is always intertwined with risk. Rather than simple tools for meeting partners, apps like VKontakte, Grindr, Hornet, and Tinder are used as distinct social environments that require careful interpretation and strategy. Users constantly assess authenticity, safety, and potential harm, often moving across multiple platforms, starting with apps, then shifting to messaging services like WhatsApp or Telegram, and using calls and additional checks to verify identity before meeting offline. Set against Kazakhstan's broader socio-political context, where queer visibility can lead to harassment, outing, or violence, the episode highlights how digital intimacy becomes a form of ongoing risk management. It ultimately reframes dating apps not as spaces of free connection, but as complex systems where trust, visibility, and safety must be continuously negotiated. Yerkebulan Sairambay is a scholar at risk based at the Centre for Oriental studies in the University of Tartu (Estonia). His research interests involve, but are not limited to, the following areas of expertise: political participation, new media, civil society, climate change, clan politics, democratisation, queer studies, academic freedom, transitional justice, and nation- and state- building with a particular focus on the countries of post-communist Europe and former Soviet Union. He holds a PhD in Sociology from the University of Cambridge, and IMRCEES Erasmus Mundus Master's Double Degrees in Russian, Central and East European studies (University of Glasgow) and political science (Corvinus University of Budapest).

Former Boxer, MMA fighter and now the face of the IBC and one of our great mates Issac Hardman joins us for a yarn.To kick it off we go back to Issac's childhood and his aspirations to be a rugby league player and how that transitioned to beginning his amateur MMA career, to then going pro and going on an undefeated run, taking out Aussies that are now even in the UFC. From this opportunity, Issac went on a great run in Boxing and he discusses some of his favourite matches and we review his highlight reel knockouts. To wrap up, we discuss his latest combat sports move to the IBC and his plans to become the first Double Champ and why he enjoys the concept of the new sport so much. Work life balance is covered as Issac has just begun his real estate career as well, and we discuss why he fights for his family to bring the conversation home. This bloke is always hilarious on the mic and one to watch if you've started getting into the IBC. Enjoy trendsetters!Follow Issac on Instagram here or if you're keen to sponsor him for his future fights in the IBC: https://www.instagram.com/hardmanboxa/Alpha Blokes Survey - take ya 5 mins! https://podcastsurvey.typeform.com/AlphaBlokesGot a yarn for Talkback?

Dopey Film Festival Tickets: https://buytickets.at/thedopeyfoundation/2216905 Patreon: www.patreon.com/dopeypodcast Long Summary This week's Total Replay features Dopey Episode 30, originally recorded in the Lower East Side apartment when Chris and Dave were still figuring out what the show would become. Dave opens by explaining why Episode 29 won't be replayed. It was Ray Brown's first appearance on Dopey, but Ray has repeatedly requested that his early appearances remain offline. Dave pays tribute to Ray and plugs the upcoming Dopey Recovery Film Festival before reflecting on how strange it is to revisit these early episodes. The episode begins with Chris bringing his then-girlfriend Karen onto the show. Karen and Chris discuss meeting on Tinder, their awkward early dates, Chris almost ghosting her, and the bizarre process of figuring out whether they were actually boyfriend and girlfriend. Dave relentlessly interrogates both of them about their relationship while Karen patiently tolerates the nonsense. Karen reveals she had already listened to Dopey before Chris realized it and shares what it was like hearing some of Chris's wilder stories for the first time. The conversation includes a hilarious story about Karen drunkenly inviting Chris over, only for him to arrive and find her passed out on the toilet. The show then veers into classic early Dopey territory: recovery debates, methadone arguments, active addicts, prison stories, and discussions about whether people on maintenance medications should qualify at meetings. The centerpiece of the episode is Chris's legendary LSD story: After relapsing while working at a sober living house, Chris begins ordering drugs from the Silk Road. He buys heroin, cocaine, and some incredibly strong LSD. While attempting to maintain the appearance of sobriety, he takes acid during a screening of The Wolf of Wall Street with his girlfriend Tina. By the time they return home, Chris is tripping hard and realizes his girlfriend is going to notice. His solution? Convince her he's experiencing HPPD (Hallucinogen Persisting Perception Disorder) brought on by meditation. Chris leads a meditation session, then pretends he's suddenly having an LSD flashback. Initially Tina believes him. Eventually guilt gets the better of him and he confesses. Then he immediately tries to convince her he didn't actually take acid after all, causing her to question her own reality before finally admitting the truth again. The story ends with Tina kicking him out while Chris, deep into the trip, worries less about the relationship and more about whether she'll make him carry home a gigantic cast-iron piggy bank he had previously given her as a gift. The episode closes with a discussion about recovery, why addicts laugh at horrifying things they've done, and how the absurdity of addiction becomes funny only after enough distance and healing. A bonafide dopey classic! Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for advertising.
