Candice Smith - Tango is more than just another sex box

Tango is not just another sex box. Candice went to Harvard and had to overcome the stigma of being more than a "Birchbox for dildos". She learned how to apply science to intimacy and created her company. After taking sexuality studies at Harvard she learned to critically analyze porn. This was for her, like many people, her first introduction to sex ed, but she learned quickly that pornography didn't translate into relationship success. She dedicated herself to figuring out what makes for healthy intimacy and became an educator. After getting her masters in secondary education one of the things she really enjoyed was gamification for learning and using gamification to create bonds. Her passion project was trying to distill the science of better sex into these hands-on experiences that are fun and enjoyable to talk about and add some spice and variety into the bedroom. Candice talks about the benefits of having playfulness in your relationships, the different types of kits they offer and why she was passionate about creating this resource for people. She also shared about her own experience of being sexually assaulted that lead to the creation of the healing kit and working with a trauma expert to help others start the healing process. "My body became a weapon that I used against myself. It became something where, I would put myself in an unsafe space, with people who I wasn't necessarily sure that they would look out for me." - Candice Tango got started when Candice started to think about the ways we can think outside of the box to encourage adults to have healthier relationships without like saying, sit down and read this book right now. How can we make it fun for them?

Building Nightmares: The True Cost of Oversight

Hosts Mikki Paradis and Jessica Abreu of Chicks in Construction explain why permits matter and share a Denver homeowner horror story: Kevin and Noelle Collins hired Schwab Builders (run by Avi Schwab and involving his father Sean) for a major remodel of their 1950s bungalow, paying over $250,000 in installments. After demolition, progress stalled, communication turned vague, and they later discovered no permits were pulled and the contractor wasn’t properly licensed. A courtesy inspection led to a stop-work order and an engineering report declaring the home unsafe to occupy, forcing the family out after Thanksgiving 2023 and into two years of paying mortgage plus rent. Prosecutors found multiple victims, alleged over $1.1M in consumer fraud, and a jury convicted the builder on 47 felony counts; Avi was sentenced to 10 years. The BBB “Restoring Trust” program helped rebuild the Collins’ home for free, and the hosts highlight red flags like failing to verify licensing and skipping permits. 00:00 Permits Matter 00:13 Welcome and Submit Stories 01:42 Sneeze Talk Tangent 03:50 Tough Mudder Signup 08:59 Camping and Clean Freak 14:30 Back to the Horror Story 18:09 Denver Remodel Nightmare Setup 19:46 Schwab Builders Red Flags 20:55 Quarter Million Renovation Reality 22:22 Contracts and Payments 24:38 Demo and Dependency Trap 27:53 Delays and Ghosting 30:37 No Permits No License 35:30 Lawyer and Courtesy Inspection 37:45 Stop Work Unsafe Home 43:03 More Victims and Fraud 47:21 Trial Verdict and Sentencing 48:56 Restoring Trust and Red Flags 52:00 Final Takeaways and Outro Submit your homeowner horror story:www.chicksinconstruction.com Follow on Social Media:www.instagram.com/chicksinconstructionpodcastwww.facebook.com/chicksinconstructionpodcastwww.linkedin.com/company/chicksinconstructionpodcastwww.youtube.com/@ChicksInConstruction ________________ Love what you hear?Subscribe to Chicks in Construction and share this episode with your friends because every homeowner, builder, contractor, and designer needs to hear this one!

Shaky Foundations: A Homeowner’s Guide to Contractor Scams

Hosts Mikki Paradis and Jessica Abreu open with a “chicky chat” recap of Mikki babysitting Jess’s kids, including an Uno-cheating incident and the kids texting their parents throughout the night. They then share a homeowner horror story from Sam in South Carolina, who hired a referred contractor to enclose a patio into a sunroom for $42,000 without getting other quotes or verifying a license. After failed inspections, repeated upcharges for rework, delays, and being asked basic planning questions on site, Sam discovered the contractor wasn’t licensed and was allegedly “working under” someone else’s license before ghosting. Sam hired a licensed contractor to redo and finish the project for $28,000 more, stretching the timeline to nearly a year, and the hosts stress that verifying a contractor’s license is the bare minimum step to avoid being scammed. 00:00 Verify That License 00:34 Babysitting Chaos Recap 04:28 Uno Cheating Meltdown 06:58 Kids Texting The Parents 10:21 Dogs Yes Kids No 10:47 Homeowner Horror Stories Setup 13:14 Sam Sunroom Plan Begins 14:27 Contractor Jargon Red Flags 19:36 Deposit And Demo Start 21:45 Footing Inspection Fails 23:08 Inspectors And The Double Dip Scam 30:10 Paying For Rework No Way 30:39 Call the Inspector 31:33 Framing Red Flags 32:05 Failed Header Inspection 35:15 Engineered Beam Upcharge 36:05 Delays and No Shows 39:07 Subs Asking Homeowner 41:40 License Check Discovery 44:39 Confrontation and Ghosting 48:14 Damage Control Strategy 50:34 Hiring a Real Contractor 52:48 Costly Finish and Lessons 54:25 Verify Licenses Always 56:32 Qualifier License Explained 01:01:21 Wrap Up and Share Story Submit your homeowner horror story:www.chicksinconstruction.com Follow on Social Media:www.instagram.com/chicksinconstructionpodcastwww.facebook.com/chicksinconstructionpodcastwww.linkedin.com/company/chicksinconstructionpodcastwww.youtube.com/@ChicksInConstruction ________________ Love what you hear?Subscribe to Chicks in Construction and share this episode with your friends because every homeowner, builder, contractor, and designer needs to hear this one!

David Andelman - Trump, $.55, and voter fraud

David Andelman is a graduate of Harvard College and of the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism. Andelman was the editor of World Policy Journal from 2008 until 2015. Previously, he served as an executive editor at Forbes.com, as business editor of New York Daily News, as a Washington correspondent for CNBC, and as a reporter, correspondent and bureau chief for The New York Times in covering Southeast Asia from his base in Bangkok, Eastern Europe from his base in Belgrade, and New York. Following The New York Times, he served for seven years as Paris correspondent for CBS News David has covered presidents throughout the years, all the way back to 1960 as the news director of the Harvard news station. In 1964 he covered his first election event. So he has followed presidents since Kenedy and there has never been one quite like this. "I'm willing to give any president the benefit of the doubt and was hopeful that he (Donal Trump) would rise to the occasion. And he hasn't." He spoke about the most important function of any journalist is to report what happens and then unpack what it means and how it fits into the lives of the listeners. And Trump has "the attention span of a flea" and the reporters are obligated to report the news of the day. That's why it seems the media is reporting on trivial topics like his tweets, etc. when there are more substantial stories. We discussed the topic of "fake news". It has polarized us to an amazing degree. There have been moments in our history, the 60s, the civil war where we were polarized but we look for ways to get out of the cycle. Not only is our current environment a health crisis, but it is an economic crisis as well. David shares advice he heard from a trusted economist: the motor of the American economy is the consumer. As long as the motor is working we will keep moving along. Martin brings up his fear is that we are just spending stimulus money and what will happen when it runs out? We discussed how historically we got out of an economic crisis in the past, and hopefully, it won't take a world war this time... They say there is a liberal bias in the mainstream media. David has been a journalist his whole life and he answers this question from an insider's viewpoint. You're going to find his answer informative. "If we can't trust our press our whole democracy is in deep trouble." We spoke about David's campaign he brought up on CNN recently called the $.55 campaign. By simply placing a $.55 cent stamp on your mail-in voting form you bypass the slower mail delivery times and will greatly relieve any issues with a COVID-19 era election. The final question of the episode we discussed was "Is there such a thing as voter fraud?" Check out David's books, they are amazing.
