I adore Elisa Camahort Page. In 2013 she helped me get to my first BlogHer conference. In this episode she talks about - social anxiety, being an introvert, acting but being a version of yourself on stage, moral episodes from Buffy The Vampire Slayer, BlogHer, political activism, being an Aries, honesty & integrity in business and empathy. Here's more about this lovely lady, who I embarrassed by telling her how awesome she truly is.

Jennifer Marshall used to spend her days as an agency recruiter for creatives. Her story took a dramatic turn when she experienced a manic episode. Over 12 years ago she suffered two manic episodes. After a series of doctor’s appointments she was officially diagnosed Bipolar Disorder – type 1. She is now a wife and mother of two young children, whom she loves dearly. She began blogging on Bipolar Mom Life, telling her story about being a mother with Bipolar Disorder. She was hospitalized four times within five years – two before her diagnosis was reached, and two more because she was attempting to shield her infant son (during postpartum psychosis) and her unborn daughter – and all were due to the fact that she was unmedicated at the time. Jennifer has grown after being diagnosed and learning to live with Bipolar Disorder. She has worked hard to find the right medications and a great therapist. She now strives to help others live with mental illness through her nonprofit organization, This Is My Brave, a p

We tried to talk about the origin of purple flags. I forgot if we did. I know Ra and I were saying that red flags sometimes look purple to us because we don't want them to be red. Bill decided that we should ask the guy who wrote me an email back two years later if he was going to reply in another two years. This podcast was recorded from a closet in Long Beach, California. Bill and Ra are both poets and writers. @Rarasaur and @ThatManFriday on Twitter "Ra lives and loves in Los Angeles and the internet, where frightfully wondrous things happen. She is a once-upon-a-time inmate, a reluctantly-optimistic widow, an exponential storyteller, and also basically a dinosaur. Her story is a long one, but the short version is she (probably) loves you. @Rarasaur" Fictionary... 8 Megapixel Artist... Bloody Awful Poet, Bill Friday is a recently-published bender of Words, Voice, and Stuff. He is a former internet talk show host, and long-time Citizen Journalist. Currently, Bill is a part of the Writer’s Room for a tele

Ricky and I talk about panic, Verizon, New York area codes, things you just don't say like "Manhattan" or "the subway and how to be nice to people when you don't actually know how because you're from New York.

Once upon a time, I was super bored and my guest canceled on me. I was sad, and I decided to talk to myself. Then I got more bored and asked many of my friends to come join me. We talked for 3 1/2 hours.

Evan and I try desperately to find out who made the "..." in iPhone text messages and talk about several people who might want to give us money. We are also tired and we don't know how to stay awake. But if you're having insomnia, this episode will put you to sleep.

Evan and I talk about things! He had foot surgery. I feel bad for him. We play a fun game where we try to figure out what each of us would in a given situation. I have renamed 2/14 Unexpected Romance Day!

I talked to Erin Khar, Editor & Columnist of Ravishly.com. She writes a killer advice column called #AskErin. Ask her for advice on anything. "Hi, I'm Erin. I write about things like addiction, recovery, mental health, relationships, parenting, infertility, self-care, and my undying love for Beverly Hills, 90210. My work has been featured many places, including Marie Claire, SELF, Esquire, Cosmopolitan, The Manifest-Station, and Cosmonauts Avenue. My weekly advice column, Ask Erin, can be read on Ravishly. My latest project is a forthcoming memoir that follows my recovery from a 15-year struggle with heroin addiction, as I learned to let go of shame, face the truth, and love and forgive myself." - Erin Khar

We obviously have a sponsor. The name of our sponsor is @RavishlyDotCom The reason we are talking about this SO much is that we are extremely excited. We would also like to thank Aura Bishop, Director of Promotions, for our podcast. In this episode, I call Lens Crafters and ask them to sponsor them. They don't know a lot of things. But they tell us that I can get glasses in an hour, they have lab coats and a lab and Luxottica owns it. Also, they do not carry my favorite brand of glasses called Legre. Does that sound French? Follow Evan @Evanjm02. I am afraid that Darren is sad that he has not been a guest on our podcast. But we need to get him on and spur the success of that podcast - The Virgin Chronicles.

I had the pleasure of interviewing Joni Edelman. She is a beautiful person who I have written for at Ravishly.com.
