What's up guys, it's your favorite internet queers. I'm Ashley Gavin.

I'm Alina Joy and I'm Mack and Jame and we are here to tell you about our new podcast chosen

family on the Forever Dog podcast network. Each week we're bringing you a topic or a theme related

to Queer Life to the family dinner table to weigh in, deliberate and discuss the right thing to do.

The smart thing to do and the dumb thing we know is dumb but we'll probably end up doing anyway.

Hey we never said we were perfect. I am perfect. Okay. We'll be talking about everything from our

own dating lives, sex lives to dealing with family and friends IRL. Then we'll invite you

our stunningly gorgeous listeners to join in on the family conversation by answering any of your

questions and dilemmas. Listen to chosen family podcasts every Wednesday on Apple podcasts,

Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts. You can also watch every episode on YouTube to get

the full family experience. Enjoy.

Hello, I'm Alson Raskin. I'm a writer, mental health advocate and I've started doing Pilates videos

But it's actually, well, I want to get to you being stressed out. I don't care.

I say, no, I want to, but I will quickly say that, you know, for like almost, for I don't know,

seven and a half months, I've had my leg not feel like my own leg after my knee surgery.

And doing these videos are a lot of like full body movements and a lot of stretching and a lot of

things where I'm like, oh, if you look, I have a body again, which has been exciting.

How do you do? You got to build up your core, right? That's how you stay safe.

I can't activate my core. That's an ongoing problem.
