Love and Radio: Blood Memory

“ I believe there's order and beauty and meaning in the universe. I believe in goodness and not evil. And if I found out that was all not true, it would be devastating to me.”

As the years tick by, Michael and Ariel start to lose hope he’ll ever be free – while Heather fears the people in charge may finally fall for Michael’s charisma.

Blood Memory, Coming Feb 2!

Thu, 18 Dec 2025 12:56:00 -0000

The motto of the Aryan Brotherhood prison gang is “blood in, blood out."

During his 45 years in prison, Michael Thompson became one of the few people to leave the white supremacist gang alive — and to testify against it. But is Thompson a gentle soul trapped by a broken system, or, as his critics claim, a master manipulator who can’t be trusted?

Blood Memory, a new series from Love + Radio, grapples with that question. Winner of the Best Independent Nonfiction Audio Award at the 2025 Tribeca Festival.

The new season unfolds February 2. Subscribers can listen to the entire series a week early though, just sayin'.

Morning Splendor

Mon, 27 Oct 2025 15:16:00 -0000

I've been pretty obsessed with the idea of forgiveness the last few years, trying to tease apart when it empowers and when it becomes something that appeases the worst kind of behavior. So when my friend Katy told me about Wilma Derksen, a woman who chose forgiveness in the face of unimaginable tragedy, I had to figure out how she was able to do it.
