Hearth & HeatherEp 12: Emotional Jazz HandsWe’re bringing just-woke-up bear energy to a conversation about our intentions for the months ahead. As we think about what we want for ourselves this winter, the conversation takes us into vulnerability in play, being [un]comfortable with letting silence play out, the idea of “coolness,” and risk and authenticity in friendship. Can we use play to reach for deeper community, while still honoring our fears around being vulnerable? We also share what’s on the stove in our winter kitchens, and swear a bit.

DisruptedFriendships that challenge norms: Intergenerational friends and platonic life partnersThis hour, for Valentine's Day, we are taking a look at friendship. While friends seem ubiquitous in our culture, they aren't often prioritized in the same way that romantic partners are.

The Ezra Klein ShowBest Of: Status Games, Polyamory and the Merits of MeritocracyFor years, Agnes Callard has been on a mission to take ethical philosophy out of the ivory tower. She examines everyday human experiences — jockeying for status, navigating jealousy, marriage — with dazzling detail, publishing regularly in mainstream publications. And she tries to live by her philosophy, too, even if it violates social conventions, as many discovered when The New Yorker published a provocative profile of Callard last year. We recorded this conversation in May 2021, before the New Yorker article drew attention to the details of her home life. (She lives with both her husband and her ex-husband.) But after...

2024-02-0919 minThe Ezra Klein ShowWhat Relationships Would You Want, if You Believed They Were Possible?Around 40 percent of people who marry eventually get a divorce. Almost half of children are born to unmarried women. The number of close friends Americans report having has been on a steep decline since the 1990s, especially among men. Millions of us are growing old alone. We are living out a radical experiment in how we live, love, parent and age — and for many, it’s failing.That’s partial context, I think, for the recent burst of interest and media coverage of polyamory. People want more love in their lives, and opening their relationships is one way to...

À proposÀ propos relacji nieromantycznychA co gdyby to przyjaźnie, a nie małżeństwa, stały się centrum naszego życia? Takie pytanie stawia w tytule swojego artykułu dla magazynu „The Atlantic” dziennikarka Rhaina Cohen/ Pokazując, jak bardzo w ostatnich dekadach zmienił się społeczno-kulturowy (a w niektórych krajach również prawny) obraz tego, co rozumiemy pod pojęciem związku romantycznego, Cohen zastanawia się, jak to możliwe, że „pomimo tych wszystkich przemian nie zmieniło się zbytnio oczekiwanie, że to monogamiczny związek romantyczny jest planetą, wokół której powinny krążyć wszystkie inne związki”. O tym, polecając teksty kultury, opowiadam w podcaście À...

Galbūt dabartinės visuomenės normos, pagal kurias esame skatinami siekti santuokos ir vaikų yra klaidingos – ir vietoj to turėtume prioritetizuoti draugystę?
