CTP (S3EFebSpecial4) Relationship Roller Coasters, Explained
Valentine's Week 2026 Special episode 2
Exploring more of the fascinating intersection of Activism, Community Engagement, Faith / Religion, Human Nature, Politics, Social Issues, and beyond   
We map the fuzzy “roller coaster relationship” cliché to real rides—mild, wild, and everything between—and show how clearer language can change how we handle conflict. We argue that small disagreements are signs of thinking, not failure, and offer ways to keep the ride safe.
• unusual programming update for Valentine’s week
• the “roller coaster” metaphor unpacked with real coaster types
• why mild ups and downs signal healthy dynamics
• when intensity becomes instability and what to do
• conflict as proof of independent thought
• simple habits that smooth the track

Hello, welcome to another episode of 52 Stormers Podcast. I am your host, Joseph Film Wander, that's L-E-N-A-R-T at the 55 down the go. Thank you for tuning in as Brandon to stay on his show. Let's get on the show. Hey gang, a special brief setup interlude. I said I'd be doing two guest appearances a week for January, February, maybe even in March. But this week, Valentine's Week, I'm doing three weekday episodes. Two will be guests. I did D. H. Moore's semi-relationship romance related episode that dropped Tuesday, February 10th. I am dropping this, a former video exclusive monologue, won't be a guest, so that's gonna be different. Thursday, February 12th. I will be repurposing an interview with Bob Moog for a third in this Valentine's week during the week. Am I the ass game? And on Saturday, the 14th, a fourth in one week, the normal traditional Saturday monologue. So just wanted to explain what's going on. This is an odd different week. And on with the roller coaster, dealing with relationships, roller coasters, the life kind video exclusive dealing with relationships. Bob Moog tomorrow. Oh, Friday the 13th. I just now realize that. Bob Moog having nothing to do with Friday the 13th, but a relationships game, M I B S that I encourage couples to play. So rebroadcasting that. Let's get into the roller coasters, the life kind, the former video exclusive play. I I'm kind of sitting here chuckling a little. I'm watching TV, and and I don't remember for the product, I wasn't really paying much attention, and it's only like maybe the third or fourth time I've seen it again, each time not really paying attention to the ad, but there's a couple and asked, What's the one word that describes your relationship? And the guy, I think it's the guy in the commercial, says roller coaster. Well, hey, that could be a very good term. Is it like the little wildcat ride you could find at any traveling carnival that pops up in a mall's parking lot, you know, very mild, like Longfellow in my oh, let me grab, I'm I'm grabbing. Fourth in the Life and Living series of books. Longfellow's every life, a little rain, figurative, and literal will fall. A roller coaster. Is it mild? Like Cedar Point, if you've ever been there in Sandusky, Ohio, that's near me in Michigan. I've been a longtime uh visitor to Cedar Point. Oh, pardon the background, some lights coming in from the door and causing a little glare there. But anyway, back to the point. Cedar Point, I can't think of the coaster. You walk in the front gates over to the left. There's like a picnic area in around the back of the picnic area, old white wooden coaster, very mild. You only have the seat belt, no harness because it's not a massive structure, wild and crazy, just a few heels, and if you lift your hands up off the rail, you get a little air time. Yeah, every relationship should be like that kind of roller coaster. There's bound to be some ups and downs. There could, there should be some minor discrepancies and discussions and even minor arguments. That means you're alive, it means you're working because relationships are work. You need to work at them. It means you're doing well. Now, if by roller coaster you mean the beast at King's Island in Cincinnati, Ohio, well, then you got issues. Then it's a rough marriage, it's a rough go. The beast, world-renowned wooden coaster, King's Island. I've been there many times too. I used to be a member of Ace, American Coaster Enthusiast Club. And back when I was married, we were part of the group, and we go to various parks around wherever. And as part of the club, we get access into the park before it opened to get in line for a coaster before it officially opens. So we're right there. We get a jump like King's Island, go to the beast, be able to ride that. And then while people are still piling in the park, you're off you're done with your ride already, and off to another coaster, getting in line for that before that line gets very long. At any rate, that's a side thing. But yeah, roller coaster. What kind? A mild one? That's great. That's wonderful. You're doing good. The beast, that's a whole lot. Or uh America's uh Six Flags, America and California. I can't think of the big Fire and Ice, I think they have dual steel track ones. You know, or is it like uh the Maverick top top gun one that uh that's like uh Iron Dragon at Cedar Point in Sandusky, Ohio? It's really just a dangling mild coaster. They call it a coaster, it isn't even a coaster, it's more like a cable car ride, you know, where you're in the gondola and you go over the ground and you land at the other. Uh, those are pretty mild. You dangle a bit, you sway a bit, but you're in a car, those are mild. Well, at any rate, I just wanted to come and laugh with you about that commercial and put it in perspective and reality. Indeed, life is complicated at times. You know, things aren't always gonna go perfect. If you never argue, chances are one of you is a sheeple in that relationship because it's not normal for two people, even identical twins, have their own minds, their own personality. They don't agree all the time. A spouse doesn't normally agree all the time. Brothers and sisters don't always agree all the time. Uh, aunts and uncles, grandmas and grandpas, kids and adults. It's not normal to be supposedly in sync with another human 100%. You're not a thinker, then you're a sheeple. You you're just uh adopting and assuming someone else's persona if you never have any disagreement. Anyway, that's all I wanted to mention. I I laughed again because that commercial came on and I thought about their roller coaster. Yeah, well, what kind, right? It's like the difference between a surface street out front of your house 25 miles an hour, or the Autobahn trying to go along with traffic zooming past it 150 miles an hour. One is far more complicated than the other. Thank you all. Take care. God bless. Love you all. Like and subscribe to Christitutionalist Politics Podcast and Care Episode. We need your help.
