Ep 203: Meditation for Beginners

Mindfulness meditation has changed my life. It has helped with my anxiety, productivity, and inner peace.

You can start as small as one minute at a time. In this episode, mindfulness educator walks us through 10 tips for the meditation-curious, those beginning a...

Do you find goals motivational or defeating? Does all the hubbub around the first of the year feel fresh or frustrating?

Instead we can look at goals as a framework that moves us forward to create better lives. and I also discuss what happens when you don’t meet your goals, how to identify the obstacles that get in our way, and how to get unstuck when your “new year new self” aspirations meet the reality of carpool and errands....

This episode is for anyone who loves a teenager. I'm the mom of a teenager and a preteen, and cultural norms and expectations have definitely shifted from my own childhood in the 80s & 90s.

Ep 196: Symposium: Britney Spears's New Memoir
10 Things To Tell You
A few times a year, I like to let you listen in on the conversations we're having in the patreon community. Each month we meet twice over zoom to talk about something culturally relevant (we call this Symposium) or to talk about books (a pretty traditional Book Club). This meeting was a bit of a mashup of the two. When it was announced that icon and legend Britney Spears was releasing a memoir this fall, I knew it would make a splash in the publishing industry and in the celebrity world. And it did. sold over a million copies in it's first week of release and there were a few...
info_outlineThis episode is for anyone who has asked themselves why they're so invested in what is clearly outrageous, manipulative, and phony "reality" television shows.
I watch Real Housewives every weekday on my lunch break, and as I've gone through phases of watching with both fascination and disgust, I’ve asked myself: why do smart people love dumb tv? What is it that we’re drawn to? Why do we get so sucked into the drama? Is it aspirational or escapism or something darker or is it just not that deep?
And so I decided to explore that topic with the perfect guest: Matt Marr, cohost of the Reality Gays podcast. In this episode, Matt and I talk about our history of reality tv watching (starting with the Real World in the 90s), and we talk about how we think reality TV has changed culture, why we’re so invested in the lives of these reality TV personas, and so much more. We talked for over an hour and didn’t even scratch the surface of all that we could have discussed.
We do have an extended cut version of this episode over on the Secret Stuff patreon page, where Matt and I talk about our shared Oklahoma roots and I'll also be releasing a personal episode over there this week about my time working in reality television in the early 2000s.
