Sad Mistress Who’ll Never Love Again - Interview with Bridget Nov 02, 2021

Show notes

Only the most endearing, vulnerable and authentic women can say things like: “ I loved douche bags …they were my kryptonite.” Or, “I thought I would be a prisoner of loving him forever…. I’d be a sad mistress who would never love anyone again.” Bridget Pheatsy, comedian, provocateur, and host of the hit podcast Walk- Ins Welcome is that kind of woman. On this episode Bridget shares her own personal stories of affairs and heartbreak. She describes with complete candor how she weaponized her sexuality to seduce men, and spent years seeking out hurtful relationships with bad guys in response to her abuse and years of addiction. Bridget’s story told by anyone else would be utterly sad and devastating, but true to her nature, Bridget finds both humor and heartbreak in her incredible life journey.

Politicians, Affairs and Sex Scandals Oct 19, 2021

Show notes

My guest this episode is Anne Michaud author of “Why They Stay: Sex Scandals, Deals, and Hidden Agendas of Eight Political Wives" Michaud’s book recounts the stories of powerful political couples whose lives—both personal and public—were transformed by cheating. She explores what motivated each of these women to stand by their unfaithful man and, by consequence, augment his positive perception in the media as a virtuous American brand. Michaud contends that these wives were given little choice other than to publicly support their husbands in the face of affairs and sex scandals: an imperative imposed by political advisors and a moralistic electorate who expect women to appear as supportive and dutiful.

In our talk, Tom gets vulnerable, raw, and very real as he shares anecdotes about life on the road, and reveals how infidelity has at times become a theme in his music.

To Forgive Or Not To Forgive: That Is The Dilemma Sep 21, 2021

Show notes

What should you do when your spouse or partner betrays you not only once but twice, or more? How do you respond when the betrayal is on-going with frequent hook ups, titillating sexts, then the ultimate; rapacious sex romps with a lover? Can you ever truly forgive or truly forget these behaviors? On this episode, I’ll address the notion of forgiveness after an affair in a short fictional story I’ve written and will narrate called “To Forgive Or Not To Forgive: That Is The Dilemma.” After the reading, I’ll host a roundtable discussion with my diverse group of guests Kenny, Melissa, and Sandy who are from different backgrounds and have differing points of view on cheating. My guests will react to the story, and share their own thoughts on infidelity.

My Girlfriend Cheated On Me With Her Dog Sep 14, 2021

Show notes

Imagine you’re a bride, and your fiancé invites a woman you barely know to your wedding under the guise that they’re “just friends.” He and his “friend” disappear from the reception for almost 2 hours and no one knows where they are. It’s not surprising that shortly after the wedding this bride’s marriage ends. According to John, my guest today, his girlfriend (this former bride and divorcee) became a cheater: an emotional cheater. John claims she was never a truly present and giving partner because everything she went through made her too guarded. John says that instead of nurturing their relationship, his girlfriend poured her affection, cuddles and kisses in another direction. She was so consumed with this “other” that John felt neglected and emotionally cheated on. What’s surprising is that this “other”who stole the couples’ intimacy away was his girlfriend’s … dog? On this episode my guest John and I discuss his unique perspective on emotional cheating. John also tells an incredible story of how a bride was forced to live out a cheating nightmare on her wedding day.

Show notes

What if you’re not sexting per se, but sending flirty DMs, texts and pictures to someone you’re really attracted to, but your partner has no idea you’re doing this? What if after yoga you and a hot hottie in the class go for smoothies, but you don’t tell your partner, or admit to yourself that having smoothies with them is the reason you go to yoga in the first place. What if you have full on sex romps with someone other than your partner several times a year without your partner knowing? Are any of or all of these cheating? Are any or all of these relationships?or just hook ups? On this episode, I’ll address all of these questions in a short fictional story I’ve written called “How Many Times A Month Is Enough?” After the reading, I’ll host a roundtable discussion with my guests and friends Justin, John, and Amy, who will react to the story and share their own thoughts on infidelity.

Life + Love With My Spouse, My Core Partner, and My Lover. A Frank Discussion About Polyamory. Aug 31, 2021

Show notes

Does polyamory really make it possible for husbands and wives and committed partners with multiple lovers to have it all? Many say that having an affair makes them feel alive again, but with that exuberance comes deception, duplicity, and deceit. Hiding an affair from your spouse or partner is guilt provoking and burdensome. What if there was a way to maintain the stability of your committed partnership and the passion of your affair. What if you didn’t have to choose between a spouse and lover but could have both in an open, honest and loving relationship that includes …… your children? Is it even possible to have a healthy and open relationship with a spouse (or committed partner) and a lover at the same time? Can you love them both deeply? Can you give both your partner and your lover the attention they deserve, and the intimacy and sexual intensity they need? On this episode I talk with my guests Sarah Levinson, therapist and Dr. Mark Sisti, psychologist talk about polyamory.
