This episode goes into tender territory: the stories we hide, the shame we carry quietly, and what it looks and feels like when we finally let them out. We'll talk about the relationship between secrecy and identity, why shame thrives in silence, and how vulnerability, especially in queer and marginalized communities, can be one of the most radical acts there is. This won't be a heavy episode, we bring warmth and humor to even the hardest topics, but it will be real and honest.


Todays guest is Kyle Ridley an Emmy Award-winning TV journalist and former morning show producer. He is now host of The Tangle with Kyle Ridley podcast, where he unpacks the stories that don’t fit in a 5-minute segment. And in 2026, Kyle publicly shared his decade-long secret struggle with bulimia, one of the most under-discussed topics in men’s and LGBTQ+ health.
