Savage Lovecast

Savage Lovecast Episode 941

Tue, 12 Nov 2024

Description

First off, we hear from a neglected third in a poorly executed threeway hook-up. He failed to advocate for himself, and the other two guys weren't asking if he was ok, sitting on the couch, looking at his phone. How could this have gone better? And how can he get over the waves of insecurity he feels when he connects with these same guys again?  A woman in an open relationship with a nine year-old daughter wonders how to explain daddy's frequent absences.  Our guest this week is the soothing, clever and cussing Jeff Guenther a.k.a Therapy Jeff. Somehow Dan convinced him to come on the show and give him (and all of us really,) some free therapy around the grief we are all feeling. Self care? Sign us up! And of course Jeff sticks around to answer sex questions too. A little is on the Micro and the whole thing is on the Magnum.  And, listen in as a woman goes over the details of why her friendship is coming to an end.  It really must end.  [email protected] 206-302-2064  This episode is brought to you by Hims, providing affordable access to ED treatment, online.

If you're stuck in a relationship quandary, or if you're looking for sexual harmony, well, there's nothing you can't ask on the Savage Love Cast.

Well, fuck. I'm going to open this week's Savage Lovecast, if it's okay with everybody, by reading the opening of this week's Savage Love.

33.331 - 52.597 Dan Savage

Reading a sex advice column at a time like this to say nothing of writing a sex advice column at a time like this might seem a little pointless, but I've lived long enough to know that seemingly pointless distractions, small comforts, even guilty pleasures, have the power to sustain us in bad times.

53.339 - 76.735 Dan Savage

Taking a moment to read or write a sex advice column or listen to or make music or watch or make porn doesn't mean you're complacent, doesn't mean you're complicit. Because those little things, the little joys, the small pleasures, even especially the guilty ones, they have the power to keep us sane, to keep us connected, and keep us going.

77.676 - 99.68 Dan Savage

And to everyone who wrote in or called this week to talk about sex, literally going, leaving the country. You know, if somebody had told me 20 years ago, hell, if somebody had told me 10 years ago that a reality show host slash serial sexual predator with a golden toilet would one day appoint a majority of the justices on the Supreme Court, I might have immigrated then.

100.663 - 117.752 Dan Savage

But leaving, whether we're talking about leaving a shitty spouse or a shitty country, is always easier said than done. So I think we're going to do, I know I'm going to do, what most people in shitty relationships wind up doing. Staying and fighting.

119.104 - 141.176 Dan Savage

If you're looking for a little uplift, but not a distraction, Amanda Marcotte, senior political writer at Salon, past guest on the Savage Lovecast, wrote a great and surprisingly funny and moving piece for Salon this week, headlined, A Cat Lady's Survival Guide for the Second Trump Administration. Marcotte recommends divorcing your Republican husband.

141.236 - 160.224 Dan Savage

Again, easier said than done, although some people... are doing it. She also recommends that women never date a Trump voter. She stopped short though, of telling women as some women are doing right now in the wake of this horrifying, especially for women election.
