Loving a person, not their gender with Marie of A Stitching OdysseyIn September 2015, Marie wrote a post on her sewing blog called "Loving a Person, Not Their Gender." In that post, she talked about the experience of having her partner come out as transgender. In today's story, we talk to Marie and her girlfriend Charlotte about that experience, and what came after. Editor's note: At the end of this episode, the name of Marie's blog is misidentified as Diary of a Sewing Fanatic, another lovely sewing blog. Marie's blog is called A Stitching Odyssey.

Design, Fame, and Villainy with Gretchen JonesGretchen Jones is the controversial winner of season 8 of Project Runway. Her singular style won the show, but her bold and ambitious personality led her to be cast as the season's villain. In this interview with contributor Heather Lewenza, Gretchen talks about what led her to put herself out there on television, what life was like after sudden fame, and how she's discovered her true career path through it all. Just a note, this recording does have several words that you may not find appropriate for young listeners.
