Introducing The Four-Season Rule: How to Know If It’s Real Love with My Husband, Ira Bernstein from The Tamsen Show . Follow the show: The Tamsen Show So many women come out of a divorce believing that part of life is over. Not because they’ve stopped wanting connection, but because they no longer trust themselves to choose it. Tamsen was one of them. By the time she met Ira, she had decided she would never marry again, and she meant it. In a rare episode with her mostly offline husband, Tamsen looks at what actually made a second chance possible. It’s less a love story than a story about rebuilding trust in your own judgment, letting yourself be seen as you really are, and learning that the right relationship doesn’t ask you to get smaller. It’s also an honest picture of what love looks like in midlife: two different temperaments, two full lives, and a lot of laughing. If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s too late, or whether you’d even recognize the right person after getting it wrong once, this episode is for you. In this episode: - Why giving a new relationship a full year (Tamsen’s “four-season rule”) can protect you when you don’t yet trust your instincts - What going along to get along costs you, and how to keep your voice in a relationship - How to meet someone in midlife without apps or a checklist: stay open, say yes, and let people know you’re looking - Why knowing who you are and what you want makes the right person easier to find - Letting go of the “shoulds” around a second marriage - How partners can show up through menopause, because what affects one of you affects you both - Why you don’t have to have everything figured out before a relationship can begin If you liked this episode, you'll love The 5 Hard Truths I Learned From My Divorce If you want a say on our upcoming guests, fill out ⁠this form Stay connected with Tamsen: ⁠⁠⁠⁠Get ⁠Tamsen's newsletter⁠⁠⁠⁠ filled with free tools⁠ to living better, feeling stronger, and knowing you’re never alone Get Tamsen’s NYT instant bestselling book, ⁠⁠⁠⁠How To Menopause⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Free Resources⁠⁠⁠⁠ from Tamsen  Watch all the episodes on ⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Tamsen on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠  The Tamsen Show on ⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ Follow Tamsen on ⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠  Sponsors: Your symptoms have answers.

Jonathan Van Meter is a contributing editor at Vogue and New York magazine and the founding editor-in-chief of Vibe, and he's one of the most trusted celebrity profilers in America. He has written about Oprah Winfrey, Madonna, Lady Gaga, Hillary Clinton and Liz Smith. For his new book, Citizen Kim, the first authorized biography of Kim Kardashian, he spent five years inside her world. That meant mornings in her kitchen, long days on SKIMS sets, and interviews with Kris, Kourtney, Khloé, her grandmother MJ and Kim's lifelong friends. I had an hour with Jonathan, and it flew by. His book covers the sex tape, the marriage to Kanye West and her business empire, so I used my time on the relationships that shaped her. We talk about her origin story: five generations of independent, shopkeeping women on her mother's side and an Armenian entrepreneurial streak on her father's. We also get into why success matters so much to her, what's at the heart of her friction with Kourtney, why a law career became her goal, and the surprising hand her father, Robert Kardashian, had in the O.J. Simpson Bronco chase.     Reality Life with Kate Casey  What to Watch List: https://katecasey.substack.com  Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/katecaseyca  Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itskatecasey?lang=en  Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/113157919338245  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@realitylifewithkatecasey  ShopMy: https://shopmy.us/shop/katecasey?tab=latest  Amazon List: https://www.amazon.com/shop/katecasey  X: https://twitter.com/katecasey  Vanity Fair Article: https://www.vanityfair.com/culture/story/martha-moxleys-diary  Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/katecasey

Kate digs into scandal at the top. She starts with the Miss USA and Miss Universe controversies of the past few years, from the 2024 Miss USA resignations to the chaotic 2025 Miss Universe pageant, which brought a contestant walkout, rigging claims the organization denies, and a criminal investigation into its co-owner. Then she turns to Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang, who admitted this week to having an affair. The New York Times reports that US intelligence suspects the woman, a Singapore tech executive, of gathering information for Beijing. That claim is unconfirmed, and Nvidia and China both deny it. Kate breaks down the timeline and what it all means.

Dutch filmmaker Tom Fassaert joins Kate to talk about his haunting documentary A Family Affair, the IDFA opening film that won the Golden Calf for Best Long Documentary. On his 30th birthday, Tom got an unexpected invitation from his 95-year-old grandmother, Marianne Hertz. In the 1950s she was a model the press called the "perfect mother," and she placed her two young sons in a children's home before starting a new life in South Africa. Tom picked up his camera hoping to finally understand the family secret no one would talk about, then found himself caught up in his grandmother's world in ways he never expected. Kate and Tom talk about what it means to film your own family, the home movies that shaped him, the ethics of keeping the most uncomfortable moments in the final cut, how his father and uncle reacted, and the generational patterns he's still trying to break. They also get into his new film, Between Brothers, in which his father and uncle go looking for the man who left them behind.     Reality Life with Kate Casey  What to Watch List: https://katecasey.substack.com  Instagram: http://www.instagram.com/katecaseyca  Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@itskatecasey?lang=en  Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/113157919338245  YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@realitylifewithkatecasey  ShopMy: https://shopmy.us/shop/katecasey?tab=latest  Amazon List: https://www.amazon.com/shop/katecasey  X: https://twitter.com/katecasey  Vanity Fair Article: https://www.vanityfair.com/culture/story/martha-moxleys-diary  Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/katecasey

Unsolved Mysteries is back, and this time it's a weekly video podcast on YouTube. Kate sits down with new host Jordan Murphy, who has spent more than two decades in network television and film, to talk about stepping into the chair Robert Stack made iconic and to go inside the first four cases of the new season. They cover the 2020 murder of Nick Cordova, a Gilbert, Arizona father shot in his office while on FaceTime with his kids; the death of Lori Lynn, found slumped on a tractor in her family's Ohio pond in what investigators now say was a staged scene; the disappearance of Joey LaBute, whose final text from a Columbus night out was a string of letters no one has been able to decode; and the 2006 Pinnacle Lake Trail killings of Mary Cooper and her daughter Susanna Stodden, which remain unsolved two decades later.     At the end of the episode, Kate brings in medium Jonathan Mark, who has worked with law enforcement on unsolved cases, to share what he senses about these mysteries.
