When we first heard we’d be self isolating at home during the pandemic, we thought: great! We’ll get all those things done that we’ve been putting off, learn new skills and share time with the love of our life.However, the reality for many of us is we’ve become championship nappers and stress eaters and we’re sharing so much love that we’re suffocating.Today wellness consultant Michelle Keinan joins us to talk about being together 24/7 during the coronavirus pandemic with your love or just the folks you live with.For years, therapist and mentor Michelle Keinan has worked with strong women to stop trying to take control of everything in their relationship, so they can have very sexy & satisfying marriages and she a lot to say on how any couple or friends can survive for long periods of time being isolated together.MICHELLE KEINAN:★ https://www.michellekeinan.com★ https://www.instagram.com/michellekeinanPlus–➤ The three toxic habits of highly regressive people.➤ Comedian Tracy Morgan says he’s role playing

Happiness in life comes from figuring out what you love to do and then making it your profession. Our friend 81 year old Hattie Retroage was born to be a healer, so she made it happen as a dance instructor, a therapist or in the bedroom as a senior sex symbol.Years ago, Hattie stole the spotlight from Claudia Schiffer in a Dolce and Gabbana ad with her silver sexiness and since then she’s become an outspoken advocate for cougars.Today Hattie, safe and sound from her home in Manhattan, joins us to talk about her roller coaster life as a sex symbol.HATTIE: https://www.instagram.com/hattitudes1Listen as Hattie talks about:➤ Going topless on the Howard Stern Show.➤ Choosing your own age in your mind.➤ And protecting yourself from insults and heartbreaks.

The lights on Broadway are dimmed in the early weeks of the coronavisu pandemic: the great playwright and dear family friend Terrence McNally died at the age of 81 as result of complications from COVID-19. As you can imagine, we're deeply saddened by the news.Family are people who share love. I consider Terrence family, in so many ways he was my gay uncle.Back in high school mom and Terrence dated and stayed close friends throughout their lives.Besides writing or being part of hundreds of amazing shows, plays and films, Terrence was someone who made it much much easier for me to come out as gay at the young age of 18.Terrence's plays helped so many wonderful actors launch or reinvigorate their careers including Nathan Lane, Rita Moreno and Chita Rivera.The character of Patricia in "Corpus Christi" is based on my mom Patricia, and the character of Latino performance artist extraordinaire Ramon Fornos in "Love! Valour! Compassion!" is (very loosely) based on me, Fausto Fernós. I'm eternally grateful. Love wins.

For folks who lived through the AIDS pandemic of the 80s and 90s, there’s a real sense of dread concerning coronavirus. Republicans failed to take early action on AIDS and to this day we are still living with the repercussions of their deliberate negligence.Just like HIV and AIDS, LGBTQ+ people are especially vulnerable to contracting and then dying from coronavirus.
