| I Have Nothing To Say About The Middle East | 13 nov. 2023 | 00:19:45 | |
Obviously that's a falsehood. The Tigray War: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tigray_War#:~:text=The%20Tigray%20War%20was%20an,(TPLF)%20on%20the%20other. More than 250,000 dead, along with extensive human rights violations such as rape. Myanmar Civil War: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myanmar_civil_war_(2021%E2%80%93present) Myanmar and the Rohyngya people: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rohingya_people The sad history of the Kurds: https://www.cfr.org/timeline/kurds-long-struggle-statelessness Civil War in Syria (speaking of the Kurds): https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the_Syrian_civil_war_(2023)#:~:text=As%20of%202023%2C%20active%20fighting,occasional%20flareups%20in%20Northwestern%20Syria. Native Americans: https://www.bia.gov/service/mmu/missing-and-murdered-indigenous-people-crisis War in Sudan: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/War_in_Sudan_(2023)#:~:text=A%20war%20between%20the%20Sudanese,Khartoum%20and%20the%20 Darfur%20region. 10,000 dead, millions displaced. The day I recorded this podcast, I doomscrolled through my news feed. Apparently there are several new earpods coming out! The only source who wrote about Sudan was Al-Jazeera. 1300 dead in Darfur. I could go on but you get the idea. Nobody wants to discuss these horrific conflicts; I have little doubt that soon this miserable war will join those ranks. As many as 5700 Native American women and girls go missing every year, but no one is marching in Times Square over it, are they? Am I heartless for pointing this out?

In the jungle, the mighty jungle, the cougar hunts tonight. The Beauty Myth, by Naomi Wolfe. I am not kidding, it’s a blockbuster of a book. How Stella Got Her Groove Back, by Terry McMillan.

I kissed a girl and I liked it. Or did I? Did she? WTH just happened here anyway? Here’s a couple handy articles about comp-het, performative bisexuality, and hegemonic masculinity for those who want a deeper dive: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compulsory_heterosexuality https://www.bitchmedia.org/post/visibility-performing-bisexuality-katy-perry-lowndes-music-feminism Bad Dragon sex toys is a real website: https://bad-dragon.com/ I am not being paid to mention these guys.

| On the Occasion of an Injured Knee | 21 mars 2023 | 00:16:06 | |
Peg-Leg Pete is IN THE HOUSE yo. Read my noble words: https://wordpress.com/home/unlimitedheartcoaching.com Visit me on Patreon for the wilder stuff: patreon.com/AdventurousPolyamory Get in touch: unlimitedheartcoaching@gmail.com IG: unlimitedheartfreedom Fancy Jargon: I like to make up names for people who are either theoretical/don’t exist, or whose name I don’t want to use for any particular reason.
Svetlana: also any imaginary date My sincere apologies to anyone out there who is actually named Esteban or Svetlana. I have never met any of you. Exteban or Svetlanex: any former partner whose name you no longer speak Although I did name my ex-husband (my wasband) by name a whole bunch for a while there, it’s definitely time to let him rest in peace, and to go forward in peace myself. One thing about polyamory, as The Ferret remarked, is that it’s a small world. If you are the sort of person who trashes their ex, well, everyone can see it and will soon understand that the problem is probably you. So try to be on good terms with your exes, or at least not on terms of open warfare. As Will Smith said, “keep their name out yo mouth.” | |||

| Grief in the Group | 16 déc. 2022 | 00:19:43 | |
This week is pretty heavy. Bear with me. Death is a door we all have to pass through eventually. https://wordpress.com/home/unlimitedheartcoaching.com Get in touch: unlimitedheartcoaching@gmail.com IG: unlimitedheartfreedom Fancy Jargon: Polycule, meaning the extended family unit of polyamorous relationships including your own partners, their partners, the partners of those partners, and so forth. Obviously this includes fur babies too. | |||
| The Forest For The Trees | 01 déc. 2022 | 00:28:27 | |
We have met the enemy, and he is us. Read my noble words: https://wordpress.com/home/unlimitedheartcoaching.com Get in touch: unlimitedheartcoaching@gmail.com IG: unlimitedheartfreedom Fancy Jargon: Polycule: a portmanteau of “polyamory” and “molecule,” intended to express the idea of a larger family/romantic unit. This may take any number of configurations and does not necessarily mean that all the members of the polycule are all romantically involved with each other. | |||
| The King is Dead, Long Live Who Now? | 15 nov. 2022 | 00:30:13 | |
Who’s in charge of what? And why is it pissing me off so much? Read my noble words: https://wordpress.com/home/unlimitedheartcoaching.com Get in touch: unlimitedheartcoaching@gmail.com IG: unlimitedheartfreedom Fancy Jargon: Primary bedroom: we used to call this the master bedroom. But then we realized that the idea of masters is highly problematic. And that historically, the bedroom of the master often was the site of horrible abuse of enslaved people or other people who had their choices stripped from them. So we are dispensing with that terminology because we don’t want to act that way or think that way. Actually, come to think of it, using the term “master bedroom” actually plays very heavily into sovereignty conflict in the home, doesn't it? “I use the master bedroom and so I must be the master, right?” Subconscious toxic ideas will really come back and bite you in the ass. Or as Socrates remarked, “the unexamined life is not worth living.” | |||
| Nobody Dead-Named Paul | 01 nov. 2022 | 00:43:29 | |
Dead-naming! Divine wrath! A bit of casual blasphemy! John and I talked so much on this topic and of course there was about 45 minutes of stuff I couldn’t even use because I suck at technology. This episode is not specifically about only polyamory; I think it’s time to normalize all of us having access to our own faiths and not tolerate anyone pushing us out of something that truly belongs to us. Texts we looked at: New Testament, Acts 9: 1-22 Background Characters: Rabban Gamliel The Younger: Saul studied under this great rabbi prior to his change in faith. For a deep dive on this guy, check out https://www.jewishencyclopedia.com/articles/6495-gamaliel-ii Also you will be able to see there the intense love among Jewish people for footnotes and references in general. Pastor Joel Osteen: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2017/aug/30/houston-megachurch-shut-out-flood-victims-twitter-storm https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/is-osteens-megachurch-affected/ St. James: OG Patriarch of the Church back in the day, and brother of Jesus. I like to think he would have cordially despised a fair number of today’s preachers and pastors. Here’s some nice quotes from him: https://en.wikiquote.org/wiki/Epistle_of_James

| The Secret Benefits of Dating While Broke | 01 oct. 2022 | 00:26:37 | |
You can take the girl out of the ivory tower, but you can’t take the ivory tower out of the girl, as it turns out. In this episode I veer into radical territory. Shout out to my autocorrect which actually knew how to spell "bourgeoisie" If you want to hear a more nuanced discussion about cleaning your sweetie’s place, the Benjamin Franklin effect, and all that sort of thing, go back and listen to Episode 9. Read my noble words: https://wordpress.com/home/unlimitedheartcoaching.com Get in touch: unlimitedheartcoaching@gmail.com IG: unlimitedheartfreedom Fancy Jargon: Metamour: the person who is dating someone that I'm also dating. My metamour – or my meta – and I share a partner, who can be referred to as a hinge partner. | |||
| The Veto: Yes, No, Maybe? | 15 sept. 2022 | 00:26:04 | |
You can't be in polyamory long before you start hearing about the veto. Let's take a closer look at this contentious tactic. *I am a giant fan of Jocko. However, sadly, embracing his doctrine of taking full responsibility still did not save my marriage. Perhaps I’d have been a bit more successful in that department if I were married to Jocko. Also I really want to watch a TV show which is just RuPaul and Jocko going on dates. Credit for the use of the term "tyrannical" will forever go to Tom C. Thank you! Terminology: NRE: new relationship energy, AKA the pink fluffy stupids. The early stages of dating wherein our protagonists become so lost in each other that they lose track of everything else, including common sense and good manners on occasion.

| Chicken Soup Lifestyle | 01 sept. 2022 | 00:25:15 | |
Honestly it's possible this episode was just an excuse for me to say "butts" a lot. Folks, This Ain’t Normal, by Joel Salatin. He’s written a bunch but this is the one I read and it ranges over a very broad swath of subjects. The Art of War, by Sun Tzu. I bet we’ll be revisiting this bad boy soon. Fancy Jargon: Polycule: a group, family, or tribe of polyamorous people, which may take any configuration such as a V (a hinge partner who has two partners which are not romantically involved with each other), a triad, quad, etc. | |||
| Hear Me Roar | 15 août 2022 | 00:20:52 | |
