Welcome to the Bear Marriage podcast. I'm Sheila Ray Gregor from Bear Marriage.com, where we like to talk about healthy evidence-based biblical advice for your sex life and your marriage. And today we are going to share with you the opposite. That's right. I have my husband Keith with me. Hey, everybody. And today is actually

the last episode of this season. I don't even know how we decide seasons. I mean, I think we kind of

say it's a season until we take a break. So we are going to be taking a six-week break after this and coming back kind of mid-Julyish,

I believe.

I have a lot of gardens to plant and lots of things to do and a book to finish the final

edits on.

Our book Fawn is coming out next year, how a trauma response became biblical womanhood.

So it's super fun.

And what we did last December in the last episode of

that season was we had, we had a bunch of clips and we just reacted to them. And people really

like that one. So I thought, let's do it again. But today we're going to do it with a little bit of a

twist, which is you pick some that I haven't seen.

That's right. So we're going to like cold react to it. I haven't. Yeah. Yeah. And be super fun. We'll see the same kind of concepts. Right. And the reason that we do this is because the kind of clips we're showing are everywhere on social media. Yeah. Like they just blow up and we want to teach you how to think critically about them and how to see where they are spreading harmful

messages. And and then remember, what do we do when we know that an account is spreading harmful

messages? We block it. We mute it. We don't engage because we don't want to drive the algorithm,

right? Like, yes, let's not follow stuff just to hate rage bait stuff. Yes. Yes.

Sounds good. Okay. Before we get started, just I also want to say, if you want to keep up with us

in the next six weeks, there's something that you can do that would really help, which is because of algorithms, it's always hard to make sure that we're going to keep people who love us. And so if you can make sure that you have several different touch points, so maybe you follow us on YouTube, but you also follow us on Facebook, or you also follow us on Instagram or on substack, or you get our Friday email, which is awesome. And we want as many people as

possible on our email list. When you're on our email list, you're going to find out about cool

things like new courses that we're launching, sales that we have on our courses or on our products.

Whenever publishers put one of our books on for like $1.99 for two days, you'll hear about it.

And we have a simulcast coming up in October where we're doing a marriage conference, an all-day marriage conference, and I'm doing a sex talk on a Friday night. And your church can join. It's really inexpensive. And it's hard to get us to come speak because we don't do a lot of traveling right now. But this is a way to bring us into your church and host an amazing event for not very much money. So get on our email list and you'll hear all about that stuff. We will put a link to the simulcast in the podcast notes, a link to my social media channels and how to join our email list, all that stuff. Follow everywhere. Follow everywhere. It helps us incredibly. Even if you can't follow everywhere, follow one more place that you're not currently following. That helps. Okay. Speaking of social media, I would love to see some of your
