Description

Finding your soulmate. Isn’t that the holy grail of love and relationships? It’s when you find the person who just gets you and wildly turns you on. Once we’re convinced that they’re the ONE, we marry them, or build a committed partnership with them, then swear nothing will ever tear us apart. Well — not so fast says my guest, author John P. Weiss. John is a celebrated writer and has a sizable following for his blog posts and essays about life and love. Combine that with John’s experience as a former police chief who witnessed firsthand some of the ugliest displays of cheating and affairs, and you’ve got John’s unique, eye-opening perspective on love and fidelity.

Affairs are prevalent but rarely talked about relationships. The podcast, Cheating: When Love Lies, is a deep dive into the complex emotions surrounding these secret unions. Creator and host, Jillian Hamilton, delves into this taboo topic and asks the hard questions about affairs: how common are they, who's having them, and why? These questions illicit unexpected answers that reveal both men and women as people actively seeking something - validation, escape, understanding, vengeance, thrill, love, sex, and romance - outside of marriage or committed partnerships. Cheating: When Love Lies resists the condemnation of affairs as uniquely wrong or bad and instead considers their usefulness in learning as much about relationships as we learn about our ourselves. On the podcast, Jillian Hamilton narrates short fictional stories about cheating based on true life events. The narration is followed by a roundtable discussion with everyday people who share their unique perspectives. Jillian also interviews cheaters and betrayed partners. These interviews are raw and real-and at times maddening or heartbreaking. Listen now to Cheating: When Love Lies. Are you ready for the truth?
