After Steve Spierer invited me to be a guest on his radio show on Talk Radio One, he told me we’d probably do a 30-minute segment. Then he added a caveat: ”If we’re really on fire, we could go the full forty-five.” Apparently we achieved ignition, because we ran the full forty-five. Steve’s a terrific [...]

This month on “The Alternative” we celebrated Valentine’s Day with some lively – and racy – talk about dating and romance.

I took part in a “spirited conversation” about working in the law last week on an ABA podcast. You can listen to it here. I come into the conversation after about 9 minutes. The official discussion topic was “work/life balance”…but given the current situation for most attorneys, I found myself “expanding” the topic a bit [...]

I was proud to be a part of a special Memorial Day edition of “The Alternative” with Terry LeGrand this week. Once Terry got me started talking about all the reasons I hate the US military’s “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy towards its lesbian and gay troops, he couldn’t get me to stop. It’s a [...]
Gay patient…gay therapist?

This week on The Alternative, with Terry LeGrand, I chatted with Terry about whether a gay person necessarily needs to choose a gay therapist. We got a good discussion going. Terry, like many gay men, said off the top of his head that he’d prefer a gay man to be his therapist (if he ever [...]
