There are a thousand podcasts you can listen to. This one listens back. And this week, we’re here to tell you about it. Alive with Steve Burns continues the conversation you began all those years ago. Back then it was letters and numbers and graham crackers. Now it’s death, sex, taxes, and all the big, messy questions of being alive. Why does money stress us out? Is the American dream dead? What’s the future of truth? Each week, a new guest drops by Steve’s window for a genuine and respectful dialogue between two people just trying to figure it out, together. Funny, tender, and just a little weird, this show invites you to sit down and think with Steve once again and wonder… what it really means to be alive. You’re about to hear the first episode, where Steve sits down with hospice nurse Julie McFadden to talk about death.

Leisha is not doing a podcast character, she swears. Kate loves the Seth kind of Rogen and not the other one. They also brainstorm the potential for a collaborative studio for all things podcast and vision boards. The cork kind. Don’t ever forget about the cork.

love to hear you so much ❤️
I hope y'all would be the podcast on YouTube music
love listening I wait for the podcast every week. I always get excited when I'm on my way to work on Wednesdays cuz I know I get to listen to the podcast when I get off. love first and sequel of The l word, but you guys alone are so popular there's so many other things you can do that we will all love. rock on
looking forward to more pants merchandise!!
Hey I thoroughly enjoy each podcast I've been a fan since the 90s it's been an amazing experience to watch y'all's career grow and to watch the flow that you two have when working together. I love the l word generation Q. I grew up in Savannah Georgia Leisha I understand what you're saying about how things just slow down when you're there in Savannah, had an amazing childhood really quite a magical place. I just have to say thank you so much for your podcast I thoroughly enjoy listening to you guys I laugh and I enjoy hearing about y'all's lives I first tuned in at the beginning of covid my father died shortly after that due to COVID-19. It was a life-altering experience it changed me forever. But fortunately I had y'all to look forward to every week, and still do. Thank you so much for the souls that you are. Kate, my brother teaches violin for a living in Oklahoma, I really enjoyed listening to your family history it is quite amazing. Wishing you both the best!
Dayna could be the ghost of current Xmas. And I want to know what happened to Shay I typed this whole skateboard walking my dog before you finished speaking. It’s a fantastic way to get Erin Daniel for an episode
hilarious episode today! 😂 some real LOL moments.....Thanks so much Kate and Leisha 😘X
Can't wait for the live show, even though it will be 2am!
I’d kill for an $11.00 20 inch pizza right about now
I ‘m thinking Jenny bought a notebook and a pen at 7-11
Great episode, one of the best yet!
Piggyback drinking game should be a real thing.
I discovered the L Word when I was struggling with coming out & it became my safe haven. Every time I rewatch as I get older, it becomes more relatable. When I heard my two favorite characters were creating a podcast, I HAD to support. It has become my serotonin boost. It's like sitting around with my friends just shooting the shit and I cannot express how much it means to have this when I spend so much time feeling alone. You two feel like home. Thank you. P. S. Can I live on the farm with y'all? 😂
This is one of my can't miss weekly podcasts. I love it! I feel like I'm hanging out with my best friends. Rachel's theme song singing at the end makes me smile everytime. Kate and Leisha, you rock and no one makes sponsor promos sound more natural than you two!
I love this show so much. But I have one issue. Pease do not play Rachel's French scene clip ever again. Or the singing to the theme song at the end. Please.
I'm from NJ near staten island and we call it Italian ice.
Great podcast, I recommend it especially to those apart of the L word fandom. 10/10 ❤️ Kate and Leisha
hahaha
