Season Two Episode Three- Weight & Body Image and Fears/Phobias

Welcome to a new week of Honestly! We are really excited to have you back.

This week we are talking about body image and weight issues. This is a loaded topic, or as Paul says, it's just thorny for women in general. I tend to agree. While men have lots of issues surrounding weight as well, women have a unique row to hoe when it comes to the messages we are sent about the way we look. We are taking an encompassing look at the issue--though there is a ton of ground to cover.

In our second segment we lighten it up a little and talk about fears and phobias. Of particular interest is what sparked us doing this segment at all...but you'll have to listen in to hear the story!

Of course, you can listen to it right here, or, you can find us on iTunes. We hope you will subscribe to our iTunes feed and if you enjoy our podcast, please leave us a review! CLICK RIGHT HERE TO ACCESS OUR iTunes FEED!

Season Two, Episode Two- Mass Shootings & Motherhood

This week we are getting into the serious topic of mass shootings in our country. This is in light of the shooting in Oregon, which has shocked and saddened us. Paul and I are discussing whether reform is possible, and sharing our views on how we got to this place in our country. This conversation is likely to bring up strong feelings, so we hope that people will join the discussion and comment in!

The second half of this week's program is a bit different for us; Paul will be interviewing me about my experience with motherhood so far. I sincerely hope you enjoy that segment, and possibly relate to it in some ways!

Listen in, and don't forget, we are now on iTunes!!! 

Happy Memorial Day!

We want to wish all of our [awesome] listeners a very happy and safe Memorial Day Weekend. In observation of the holiday, and because we know that so many of your are taking the time to enjoy your families (and vacation time!) we've decided not to post a podcast this week.

We hope that you will take this opportunity to go through and give a listen to some of our past podcasts that you may have missed out on. We sure do crank them out, and we wouldn't want you missing anything! Go back, give a listen, and hop into the discussion.

Above all, enjoy your weekend, and the unofficial start of the summer season!

Episode 13- Obama's Report Card & Favorites

Lucky number 13 is here!

This week, we're rating Obama's Presidency (so far) and talking about his successes, failures, highs and lows. We discuss what our expectations were, and how he measured up. Will you agree or disagree with our points of view? Listen in and find out--we'd love to hear your report card for the President as well.

In our ladder segment, we'll be mixing it up and doing a little Q&A with one another about our favorite things. It's a lighter, funnier, more personal segment, and we hope you will enjoy and play along, telling us some of your favorite things as well!!

We hope you will enjoy another week of Honestly!!

Episode 12- Pity & Art Versus Entertainment

Happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there.

For today's episode, we're veering a little by not covering a political topic in the podcast. We make the rules, so we can break the rules--it's just how we roll. Anyway, it's a pseudo holiday weekend, so we're mixing it up.

This week, we're talking about pity, a worthy subject. Is pity an emotion that gets enough credit? Or it is undervalued? We are debating the nature of pity itself. This seems fitting on a day such as Mother's Day because there are a lot of parents who have lost their children, or children who have lost their parents. We touch on that briefly, and it's something worth thinking about a day like today where lots of people are celebrating...and yet others are not.

The second subject we discuss is art versus entertainment. In a society where we've made reality television a mainstay, where is the high art? Furthermore, is high art perverted these days into something that can only be enjoyed by the upper crust of society? We're getting into it, and we hope you will join the conversation!

Episode 8, Faux Pas and Love

The past couple of weeks have been REALLY heavy...so we're lightening things up a little and giving you a little insight into our past! The first segment talks about the faux pas we've made in our lives as our former selves. We've both got some good ones, so listen in!

The second segment portion of the show has to do with love. Do you believe in love at first sight? Or does love build and blossom over time? What about unrequited love? Are unrequited lovers the overlooked heroes of the love world?

All that on Honestly this week!


As always, we hope that you will comment in and share with us your insights and opinions! Thanks for listening to our podcast.

Episode 7, Sexual Assault & "Wussification"

Hi everyone! Welcome to another week here at Honestly. We are putting our podcast out a day early...think of it as an Easter gift from us to you.

This week comes with a  serious trigger warning because we are talking about sexual assault. The main focus of the conversation is going to be about sexual assault on college campuses, as there have been some initiatives in the Obama Administration concerning how reported cases are handled on college campuses. But we are also talking about the subject in general.

The other topic we're discussing, thankfully less heavy than the lead topic, is the "wussification" of America. You know...things like preschool graduation and every kid getting a trophy. Do you think it's okay to give kids things they clearly didn't earn? Or is more fair?

Episode 4, GMOs & Childhood

Here at Honestly, we're keeping it rolling with our fourth episode. It's hard to believe we're already in our fourth week, and we, of course, would like to thank everyone who has been tuning in to listen to us. We hope that you will share our podcast with your friends and comment in often, either here or on our FaceBook page.

This week, we are talking about Genetically Modified Foods and childhood.

Should we be allowed to modify foods at the genetic level? Should we be worried, or it all a lot of worry for nothing? Where do you think we'll fall on the issue? Listen in to find out! Then, we take on childhood...from expecting children to sit in a classroom for eight hours a day to extending the age of adulthood, what does it mean to be a child in 2015?

Both topics are loaded, and there are bound to be all sorts of feelings. We wanna hear yours.

Episode 3, Drones & Marriage

Happy Sunday, everyone! We hope you remembered to spring forward today, and that you haven't lost too much sleep.

In this week's episode we are talking about drones (both military and domestic) and the ever-present institution of marriage. Should drones be in use domestically? How about militarily? Where do you think we will fall on these issues?

When it comes to marriage, is it relevant any longer, or just a ploy to get people legally entangled? You know us, we're getting honest with it and we hope you will too!!
