Love Bites Radio
2015-2017 on Heritage Radio Network
Producer, Co-Host
Every week for two years, long-time friend and fellow BFA actor Ben Rosenblatt and I welcomed guests into Heritage Radio’s unique studio space in the back of Roberta’s Pizza in Bushwick, Brooklyn. There, authors, hospitality folk, psychologists, artists, CEOs, scientists, and niche-based experts of all kinds joined us. Recording live, we tackled humor-filled examinations of love in all its glorious, bewildering complexity.
But Ben and I didn’t just ask the questions. Love Bites captured the most vulnerable, confounding, and (sometimes slightly inappropriate) details of our personal dating quests, too.
We experimented with dating tips from guests. We spilled about breakups that had just happened or were just about to happen. We drank too much and swore too much and cried a little. We got very jealous when a guest professed a happily-ever-after. We dug bravely into conversations around themes of loss, the growth that comes from new beginnings. We faced the compromises and triumphs of long-term commitment, the loneliness of singledom, and much more.
Altogether, we learned with our listeners how to love bravely and generously, each and every day.
Floyd and Barkha Cardoz discuss their marriage and how working in hospitality can be hard on the heart.
Six ladies come together to discuss the challenges and triumphs of living the single lady life... for now.
For some, baggage comes in the form of an illness that leaves you with little power over how your body moves in the world. In this episode of Love Bites, Jacqueline Raposo is joined by Allie Cashel and Erica Lupinacci of Suffering the Silence and chef Ariane Resnick. to discuss dating communication in bodies of various forms.
Food editor and mental health author Kat Kinsman joins to discuss anxiety in dating, as we continue to discuss dating with chronic illness.
On what turns out to be our LAST SHOW, we look back on 80+ episodes of Love Bites and ask each other some really complicated “which would you rather” questions…
