Don't ask how we got onto this topic, just be grateful for the golden opportunity to listen to this with your significant other. How do you have that conversation? Is polyamory right for you and your partner? What red flags do you need to watch out for? Can you justify going into the woods on a first date? That last one is an obvious joke, always turn down a hike on a first date, that's creep-a-licious.

The most important question of our generation (aside from how to fix generations of racism and environmental destruction) is whether or not we should send naked pictures. If you're ready for the complicated answer, tune in!
