Get Over Yourself! The Milt n Mia Show's podcast

After Milt introduces the show, he talks about the recent kissing scandal with Rep. Vance McAllister and his best friend's wife. Milt objects to the 'disgusting degree of sexism and hypocrisy'. Mia chastises the congressman for betraying his best friend, and talks about the mistake of having an affair at the workplace, and Milt offers that there is 'the camera of our consciousness' that records everything, like it or not. “He's only ashamed because he got caught,” Milt adds, and Mia says, “And the woman doesn't even count, how come we never hear from her?” Mia expands on how good a lesson this incident is for all of us, then Milt looks at the idea that we are all at different levels of awareness and evolution, and that publicly, we appear to be prudes. Milt asks whether or not we as a society will soon evolve past hypocrisy and learn to take responsibility, but Mia responds, “We are all at different levels of evolution, and we are all here to learn; some learn easily, most do no

After Milt introduces today's show, including the semi-regular author interview featuring Dr. Charles Rawlings and his book, It Really Is That Complicated, a copy of which to be given away at show's conclusion, he announces the arrival of their booklet, The Get Over Yourself Handbook on Cheating and Betrayal, and they discuss what readers can look forward to and some of the ideas within it. “Betrayal is an important part of growth, but the suffering is the real problem,” Mia suggests. Milt talks about the need in some people for loyalty and monogamy, rather than free-wheeling sexuality. “People are looking for sensations,” Mia asserts, “But can you just go out with someone for sex only? You start getting attached and want more.” Milt offers that people need that sense of trust and loyalty unless it comes in a monogamous relationship, before asking Mia if trust can be repaired; Mia replies, “Depends on each case, whether it was secretive or out in the open: if they're

After Milt introduces the show, he talks about their new booklet, The Get Over Yourself! Handbook on Cheating and Betrayal, and what they can look forward to reading; Mia offers some insights into the book before Milt moves on to today's themes, Re-defining Manhood, and mocking the hell out of Psychology. Milt explains the idea that many people actually do not want the freedom that they are pointing to, “A lot of people like their comfortable cages and don't want to change,” and Mia replies, “Everything is in a package today, an instant solution that comes from someone else, and many prefer that to their own solutions; they are so used to others solving, they can't think for themselves.” They talk about learning to take personal responsibility for your life, “But not everybody wants that,” Mia insists.     Milt brings in the first of a few critical emails, from an idealistic feminist woman who disagrees with their assertion that sex with robots might be a good th

After Milt introduces the show, he mentions The Get Over Yourself! Handbook on Cheating and Betrayal is now available; Mia speaks on the essence of the book before Milt introduces the show's theme, Falling out of Love, or losing the desire for the person you're with. Milt asks Mia, “How do you stay in a loveless relationship, and should you? Is it the best thing for the kids?” Mia responds, “It's a very individual case but staying together for the kids is generally better than the destruction of divorce, at least until a certain age.” Mia goes on to explore what happens after divorce versus staying for the good of the children, suggesting “The kids aren't with us that long, so determine if the situation is tolerable or not; you can suffer but the kids don't deserve to.”   Milt brings in an email asking for general parenting advice for a young couple just starting out, and Mia replies, “The first 2 years of a child's life, it is important the mother stay at home

After Milt introduces the show -and mentions Mia's nasty case of poison oak infection- he talks about the recent controversy over feminist attempts to ban the word 'bossy'. Milt says, 'We don't go about banning words just because a few people think we should'. Mia says, 'Banning a word doesn't mean a change in behavior' and Milt offers, 'The majority of college grads are women'. Mia asks, 'Now it's “bossy” but what's the next word we ban? These people have too much time on their hands!' Milt then talks about the popularity of the N word in today's youth, and Mia says, 'This is just another social experiment'.   Milt reads from emails, a woman who loved the Valentines Show but disagrees with the statement that 'Valentines is a commercial holiday that should be lived every day'; Mia holds firm and says, 'We need more Valentines Days, we need more love and less time in front of the computer'. Milt says, 'It should be rolled into how we treat each other every day'. Another email from a couple ch

After Milt introduces the show and each other, he begins talking about this week's theme, Deceit, Duplicity and Lying, and offers some background into the schizophrenic nature of today's society where you have to play a number of roles to survive. Mia agrees that lying is so easy today but then asks, “Who are you really lying to? We ultimately lie to ourselves.” Milt explores the idea that you almost have to lie today in order to get ahead but don't really know who they are when they take the mask down. Mia feels, though there may be legitimate reasons for lying today, still, can you trust someone if you know they lie regularly? Milt then offers that he is an expert in on-line dating and has seen men using other men's images rather than their own to attract women; Mia is sympathetic, “It's easy to lie today, but who are you really lying to?”     Milt reads emails, first from a man who keeps catching his girlfriend in lies and wonders if he should say anything. Mia says it's

After Milt introduces the show (and mentions their regular author interview feature coming at the end of the show with The Mantor, Steven Shewack), Milt comments on Steven's belief that we shouldn't focus on the sexual differences between men and women, by challenging that assumption. Milt adds that there are differences between the sexes, especially in the way we think, and Mia says, “That's what makes us interesting.” They discuss male versus female intuition and the fear of male energy, along with the changes that have taken place in men.     Milt mentions the flood of emails relating to cheating, and reads one from a woman who's husband is cheating yet she also is talking with her ex regularly; Mia agrees with the husband though she suggests the husband is paying her back for continuing to talk with her ex and believes they're both cheating, and advises a conversation immediately. Another emailer got caught by her young daughter kissing her husband's boss; Mia urges her to explain i

After Milt introduces the show, he mentions a passing thought from last week's author interview with Ms Caramel, “I can only love 1 man at a time,” and asks Mia about the possibility of truly loving more than one. Mia replies, “More than 1 at a time is really hard, takes time and commitment to get to love even one and it doesn't happen overnight.” Milt suggests some people are claiming to love more than 1 and people are getting confused between the sensations of love and sex. Mia expands on how Love takes a long time to develop, and Milt again suggests we don't really understand how to love each other. Mia explores the differences between sexual feelings and true love and how easy it is to fall for an older, wealthy man.   Milt reads an email from a woman who likes to fall in love but after 6 months, she falls out of love. Mia suggests it's a normal process, more about finding out about yourself, and urges she start writing in a journal so she can see what actually happens. Milt

After Milt introduces the show and Mia defines what a Life Wizard is, he mentions the new author interview feature with today's guest, Ms Caramel, he brings in an email which relates the ethical dilemma of a woman with a husband who recently exposed himself but another man was arrested for the crime; she deliberates between protecting him and turning him in, and Mia speaks on both sides of the issue but asks, “What led the man to do this without feeling great guilt?” Milt takes a philosophical look at the essence of the split between civilized and cultural views of crime, “Here, you must turn him; in cultures, you fear shaming your family and angering your mother.” Mia comments on sexualizing and traumatizing innocent children and what is in the mind of the man, and ultimately suggests the husband must be turned in. They explore the problem of forgiveness versus staying with the husband, and how to repair broken trust.     Milt broadens the discussion to include casual sex a

Milt introduces the show and praises his wife, “You are the most life-affirming person I know,” before moving onto an 'esoteric' theme taken from a recent interview with 'dissident feminist', Camille Paglia. Milt reads several Paglia quotes on men having become de-balled by feminism, and Mia essentially agrees that there are no models for men today, “Look at the school system, kids can't even fight anymore,” and comments on how Life is essentially aggressive and it's important to allow boys their natural feelings; Milt recites his experience as a school teacher and his frustrations not being allowed to touch harmlessly his kids; Mia suggests the system is educating kids and not the parents, who should participate much more. Mia then says we are losing the essence of manhood, and Milt relates how men historically have been trained and are not today, and insists that women need to allow boys to be who they are and not modify or drug their behavior.       Milt reads more P

After Milt teases the audience and introduces the show, The Milt N Mia Special Valentine's Day Show, he offers that it's absurd to have a holiday set aside for love, and Mia says love should happen at every moment of our lives; Milt comments of Valentines Day as a sales event, “Since when does candy mean Love?” to which Mia agrees and wonders how we can be spiritual today with so much emphasis on materialism, “Valentines should be done everyday.” Milt then asks if in a society increasingly devoted to casual and hardcore sexuality, how does a person find and keep love alive, or why should a person fall in love today? Mia discusses the emptiness of casual sex and the difficulty of understanding that sexual feelings do not mean love; Milt asks if young people will lose ability to fall in love, and Mia urges caution for young people and balance.       Milt suggests there are a number of women who are not enjoying their bodies and asks how women who are not yet enjoying them

Milt introduces the show, then brings in this week's provocative topic, the coming wave of robots, many of which will be used for sexual purposes; Mia comments that, in some cases it will be a good thing, but it may also increase the fragmentation, isolation and separation people are already feeling, and suggests ultimately there is little we can do about except attempting to live balanced lives of moderation. Milt and Mia then discuss the larger implications of a society set up to indulge in and yield to their temptations, then they begin a discussion on the Classics and what the Greeks felt the nature of temptation to be and how one can avoid their influence. Milt reads from emails: a woman with an ex who's a serial cheater asks if a person can ever really change, and Mia suggests it's possible when young but once you're an adult, it's impossible; they expand the discussion to look at the subject of yielding to temptation and bring in some personal anecdotes; a reluctant man asks if he should bring his gir

After Milt introduces the show, he reflects on the title of their show, Get Over Yourself, and what it actually means and whether it is something people can even do or something that will upset; Mia shares her views on how a person 'gets over themselves' including steps one can take, and offers advice on several common issues which many people struggle with, including jealousy and depression. Milt then opens listener emails; one man has a girlfriend who constantly tries to make him jealous, but Mia is sympathetic towards the girl, suggesting she is insecure and that he should not run in fear of it but live with it and even celebrate her sexuality; another man has discovered a diary of his wife, who hid her numerous affairs with professors during college, and the man is deflated and wonders what he should do, to which Mia suggests, since their marriage and sex life is good, that he learn to forget it and not make it an issue but he should bring it to her attention anyway as gently as possible; a reader wants

After the Introduction, Milt relates the story of a man who had sex with his wife's sister, and Mia comments on the wife's intense desire to know the reason why it happened and why many women are fixated on why something happens rather than doing anything about it; she suggests that some women may need this period and that it's wrong to say, 'move on' until she is ready; they then discuss the modern dilemma of pornography addiction, and Milt asks if women should be more sympathetic towards men with little to no real challenges facing them, which Mia says, 'No sympathy for porn addictions, learn to become excited about your woman's body and not some stranger's.' Milt then reads emails, from a man who thinks his wife has been cheating after returning from a seminar a changed, sexualized woman, which Mia says should be forgiven and/or ignored and celebrated, especially if their sex is now better; Mia comments on a woman who feels her husband is overly-sexual with her, 'Enjoy it but talk to him and get him some

After introducing ourselves and our background, we address a friend's recent question, 'with so many relationship gurus, why listen to you?' Milt suggests that it is our unique approach and the tools we have learned over our lifetime which sets us apart, along with the sense of purpose which leads us, all together making for a confident and competent couple with great insight into many of Life's Fundamental Issues. Mia speaks of our education, experiences, travels, simplicity and common sense. Milt relates a story of a recent show appearance where he was asked is he truly gives Mia total freedom to do as she pleases; Milt then asks if they do have an open relationship, and Mia thoughtfully replies in the affirmative, then speaks of the trust that we have together. Milt talks about trust and asks, “Once trust has been broken, can it ever really be repaired?” Mia replies that it depends on the character of the individuals involved, and also, when the breach of trust takes place is important as well.

We introduce ourselves each week and our backgrounds before discussing what we are doing on our show: a sympathetic, understanding and fun Call to Action. Milt discusses a recent theme from a dinner party they attended, where a woman described her boring life and demanded to know how to 'un-stick her life now!'; Mia described how she took the woman aside and applauded her for being brave and sharing her problem, 'You are ready now for the change'; Mia outlines the complete path to activating your life and what to avoid. Milt reads emails; a woman asks how to actually become intuitive instead of always thinking and analyzing, and Mia emphasizes following your feelings rather than your doubts and insecurities; another woman asks for help in dealing with panic attacks, but Mia challenges her to look deeper into what it really means and urges her not to buy into it but to face the fear rather than avoiding it; Mia also suggests people enjoy indulging in the feeling of panic and fear as it allows them to feel comf

We introduce ourselves and our backgrounds, hoping listeners instantly 'get' what we're doing from our show's title, while insisting we are not here to 'shrink' listeners but expand their horizons, before Milt asks Mia if men and women can actually ever be true friends, since there will always be an underlying sexual attraction; Milt offers some historical examples and Mia responds by saying true friendship is very difficult to find and yet, friendship IS possible between men and women, though Milt disagrees. Milt reads an email from a guy who uses friendship to get sex from women; a man writes to say his wife had sex with someone else and he wants to know all the details; Mia tells him it's irrelevant and to forgive and forget to keep the marriage together instead of indulging his desire to suffer; another man writes to say he has given his 'hot wife' permission to have sex but she has now gone overboard and he worries she's a sex addict, though Milt and Mia suggest the problem isn't her but him, and he can'

Our Introductory Show. We discuss our backgrounds, what the essence of our show is about and why we chose the 'Get Over Yourself' show title: taking personal responsibility for your life, and NOT taking your problems so seriously. We discuss learning to be generous and appreciative with each other rather than competitive, and learning to enjoy the present moment by not living in regret of the past or in fear of the future. We discuss our goal of not including advertising on our shows, of not accepting whining, complaining or finger-pointing, then we spoke of a recent interview where I was asked if sexual betrayal was really a big deal in this age of open promiscuity, which Mia feels remains a big deal yet can be overcome. We then looked at listener emails: a man will not forgive his cheating wife and wants to kill the man who cheated with her, but Mia says his anger is misplaced; a email from a woman who grew tired of her close-minded American husband and found a man from Europe, which Mia felt was not a nati
