Thruples, Threesomes, and Third Things: All Fours Chapter 23

Amy & Tommy record this episode from the basement of their new house, Beatrice. Even in the middle of a major move, the two come together to discuss Chapter 23 of Miranda July's All Fours, touching on the subjects of vaginal dryness, third things, and polyamory. They know nothing about polyamory, but that does not stop them from discussing it, and also the lack of human predisposition to monogamy. Although for some, it may be a pre-installed program. Also, Taylor Swift's engagement makes the pod! Mentioned in this episode:All Fours by Miranda JulyA Hidden Wholeness by Parker Palmer (wherein Palmer, a Quaker, popularizes the idea of "the third thing"Loren Estes, artist.
