For Christmas 2018, my brother, a pilot with American Airlines, gave me a gift that became the experience of a lifetime: 12 months of free travel anywhere American Airlines flies.

“Discover Your Authentic Sexual Self” with kink positive therapist Galen Fous, Part Two of Two
Dance Past Sunset
In my last show I introduced Galen Fous, a 70 year old kink-positive therapist, author, educator and sex researcher who self-identifies as a heterosexual, dominant erotic sadist. In this show I continue my conversation with Galen, where he explains a bit more about his sexual identity, plus we talk about how to have good, healthy sex in the second half of life. The show is best suited for adults interested in learning more about how to realize their sexually authentic selves.

Dance Past Sunset
In this show, part one of two, I speak with Galen Fous, a 70 year old kink-positive therapist, author, educator and sex researcher. We talk about his journey of reclaiming his own sexual power as a heterosexual, dominant erotic sadist, and in doing so finally feeling witnessed, seen, and loved. He developed a profound sense of trust and depth of intimacy he would have never experienced without some courageous personal honesty.

"Sacred Sex in the Second Half" with Wendy Cobina Demos
Dance Past Sunset
At 63 years old, I can feel my body changing, and that is affecting my sex life. Furthermore, my ideas about relationships are shifting. Is traditional marriage still the right model for men and women who want to have sex, or is there something else? What about living together 24 by seven by 365? Might there be another approach that is not quite so...suffocating?

"Fall down seven times. Get up eight" with Attorney Ron Frappier
Dance Past Sunset
This next show is deeply personal, because I have the treasured opportunity to interview one of my oldest and dearest friends, a man who was literally given up for dead by the medical establishment, and yet who lived to tell a harrowing story of devastation, faith, hard work, and eventually, restoration.

"Death Rituals from Around the World" with Professional Photographer Klaus Bo, Part 2 of 2
Dance Past Sunset
In part one of my interview with Danish photographer Klaus Bo, we learned how he got started with his dead and alive project, chronicling death rituals from Greenland, Haiti, Madagascar, Ghana, India, Indonesia and Nepal. You can see pictures on DeadandAliveProject.com. In this second and final part of my interview with Klaus, we talk about food. That’s right! When the living come together, even for a funeral, food is often and important part of that ritual, even if it’s just coffee and cake.

"Death Rituals from Around the World" with Professional Photographer Klaus Bo, Part 1 of 2
Dance Past Sunset
My interview with talented photographer Klaus Bo Christenson from Copenhagen, Denmark. Klaus travels the world chronicling death rituals, and over the years has amassed the world’s largest collection of photographs, which you can see at his deadandliveproject.com website. Does Klaus have some stories to tell? You bet he does! In fact, I was so absorbed by tales of Haitian voodoo rituals, chicken caskets from Ghana, and Indonesian funeral feasts that I had to break this interview into two parts.
info_outlineToday’s show is going to be a little bit different. In the past I’ve always interviewed some kind of expert, and that’s been great. We learn a lot from experts. But today, we’re going to right down to where the rubber meets the road and talk with a man who walked the caregiving talk. Dale Gyongyos left his home in North Carolina and travelled cross-country to Arizona, where he and his brother cared for their 95 year old mother until her passing.
Now I want to quote something one of Dale’s friends wrote me when she heard this show was coming. She said:
As caregivers, we are lost so many times and we struggle. One hears about dealing with aging parents, but experiencing it. So hard. Thank you for choosing Dale. The perfect person with the perfect heart to share his story in an articulate, compassionate and honest way.
That’s the story you will hear in this show. Because Dale and I are good friends, like brothers even, our conversation is about as intimate as it gets. You are invited to listen in as I talk with with the amazing Dale Gyongyos.
