He shares the things you might not know about the classic film from people being burned, poisoned, forced to smoke cigarettes, slapped in the face and more terrible things.

Rhaina Cohen (author of The Other Significant Others) joins us to reframe how we think about friendship: past, present, and possible futures. Rhaina explains why intense platonic bonds once held public, ritualized importance (think “sworn brotherhoods” and romantic friendships of the 17th–19th centuries), how marriage’s role shifted to demand emotional everything-ness, and why that cultural shift squeezed out space for friendships.

What you'll get out of this episode:

• The friendship that inspired Rhaina's book

• Historical models of deep same-sex friendship and how they differ from modern assumptions

• Why modern romantic relationships often eclipse friendship and why that harms us

• Real-life choices Rhaina and her husband made (communal living, prioritizing friends) and practical tips to preserve friendships

• How to be a better friend: rituals, calendars, play, and honest conversation

• Handling jealousy and myths about opposite-sex friendships

If you want to build stronger platonic connections, rethink where you live and who you share life with, or simply appreciate how friendship can anchor a life, this episode is for you.

Kat and Amy go over the Drama Triangle today! Kat helps us unpack the difference between content vs. context (aka fact vs. the story we write about the fact), why our brains default to meaning-making, and how those stories can lift us above the line into possibility…or pull us below the line into fear, lack, and powerlessness.

Kat explains the 3 unconscious roles of the Drama Triangle: Victim, Rescuer, and Persecutor + why each one feels rewarding in the moment, and how they keep us trapped in unhealthy communication loops. Both Amy and Kat share some personal stories on the Drama Triangle showing up in their own lives.

They also talk about how quickly we rotate roles and what actually breaks the cycle: noticing your patterns, naming your feelings, setting boundaries, lowering expectations, and taking radical responsibility for yourself.

It’s an eye-opening and immediately practical episode. Plus, Amy brings in the “burnt toast theory” to show how reframing even the smallest moments can be helpful.

Today we tackle a challenge that so many of us face but don’t always talk about: how to find true peace in a world overflowing with noise and overstimulation. From the constant pings of our phones and the never-ending news cycle to the mental chatter that never seems to quiet down, it feels like we’re surrounded by chaos. And even when life demands us to be present, the pressure of endless stimulation makes it nearly impossible to find the stillness our souls crave.

Join Leanne as we dive into the reality of navigating this noise. She shares her personal journey of learning to silence the external chaos and reconnect with the present, as well as stories from clients who’ve faced similar battles. Together, we’ll explore practical steps to turn down the volume of life’s distractions and create moments of stillness where we can reconnect with ourselves and hear God’s whisper amidst the noise. Because peace isn’t about removing all the noise—it’s about finding calm and connection even when life is anything but quiet.

If you’ve felt overwhelmed, overstimulated, or simply exhausted by life’s constant demands, this episode will help you reclaim your peace and find sacred spaces in your everyday life, so you can turn up the volume on what truly matters.

Bobby Bones joins Movie Mike to talk about his Top 5 movies he saw in 2025, him going back to the movie theaters for the first time in years and are we seeing the death of movie stars? In the Movie Review, Mike and Kelsey talk about Hamnet starring Jessie Buckley and Paul Mescal. It’s about William Shakespeare and his wife, Agnes, who celebrate the birth of their son, Hamnet. However, when tragedy strikes and Hamnet dies at a young age, it inspires Shakespeare to write his timeless masterpiece "Hamlet." Mike talks about why he thinks it’s in contention for best picture, Kelsey shares why the movie was better than the book and the effect a girl was crying uncontrollably in the theater had on their movie experience. In The Trailer Park, Mike talks about How to Make a Killing starring Glen Powell.  The movie is about his character who is the heir to a multi-billion dollar fortune and will go to any lengths to grab everything he believes he deserves. Mike shares why he thinks we might be romanticizing murder a bit too much recently.
