Chapter 1: What humorous situations do the hosts discuss in this episode?
Okay, you ready? We got this. Okay. We are going to do so good today. Okay. No one's going to yell at us. Really? No one is going to yell at us. Are you like trying to manifest that? Yes. Well, I just, you know, I feel like we're jokesters. Like our love language is... being playful and poking fun with each other and cutting each other off. Yes. It's our favorite thing to do.
I don't want to finish my sentence. Never. Let my brain work less hard. It'll be a run on sentence that will never end. You got to cut me off. Well, you know, what's funny is actually I've been better about not interrupting you and I just let you go. Oh, no. Yeah. And then when I'm editing, when I'm editing it, I'll get to the end of your sentence.
And you kind of start like you start like trailing off to where you're like, can you? And you're like, yeah, you're like waiting for me to jump in. But I don't anymore. No, not all the times, obviously. But we have a cadence.
Chapter 2: How do the hosts react to a friend catfishing their partner?
And then you'll be like, you'll get to the end. You'll be like, but I don't know. Like, you know what I mean? But never mind. But actually, I don't know. I don't know what I'm talking about because you didn't cut in. Exactly. But literally, I won't like interrupt you. So when I'm editing, there's like literally a five second like break that you take in the middle of your sentence.
And then I can tell you're waiting for me, but I'm like, I'm not coming in. No, you have to. I'm trying to be better. That's how I... I rely on that now. There's only, like, probably been, like, two times that you've cut me off where I've been like, I really wanted to finish my sentence there. Well, that's where you gotta, like... You're just gonna be like, shut up, bitch.
No, but, like, my point is that, like, it's so... It's like usually the cadence that I appreciate. And so I'm saying that it's like that's such a rarity for you to cut me off in a point where I'm like, no, no, no, no, no, no. Like, let me finish like that doesn't it doesn't usually happen. I'm just like, yes, yes, yes, yes. Yeah. We're vibing. We're driving. We're gonna have a good time.
It really works for my ADHD brain for whatever reason. Yeah. So. Okay. Well, I'll try to interrupt you more today is what I'm hearing. Yeah.
Chapter 3: What are the implications of a husband not wanting his wife at his graduation?
Everyone's already screaming in their car. Well, I have an eye twitch from hell. I've had bananas. I hate when that happens. I've had water. I'm really trying to really hydrate today. So I've got a propel water, a sparkling water. If that doesn't help, Justin's bringing wine. So we're going to have so much fun. And I've got some really, really crazy stories.
And I let people on Instagram vote just now. And I was like, I can't pick a theme. What do you guys want? And girl was the winner. Girl. Girl. Girl. Girl. Or like girl. I don't know. However you want to say it. Okay. You'll see. Could depend on the story. Okay. But this is going to be a really fun one. As you guys will notice, there's two episodes that dropped this week.
One with Sarah Sherman and one with Lauren. Oh, like this one. You, right now.
Chapter 4: How do the hosts analyze the emotional impact of cheating?
Right now. Okay. I was like, what? Right now. What episode? Because this era one would have been so short otherwise. And I'm like, I can't do that to our family. So hence we have this. So Lauren and I are still going to record for our full time, but the rest of it will be on Patreon. So it's a little bit of a tease, but you are getting two episodes this week. So I hope that's okay.
Who's going first? Me or Sarah? Sarah will come up first. Okay. That's okay. Yeah. Right? Yeah. Or should I fight for the first spot? Ooh. We can make you compete for it. We'll see who's better by the end of this. But okay, let's get into these because I've got some good ones today. Let's dive in. Let's do it. Let's do it.
So this is a post you found the other day and you were sitting here like reading it and you started crying and then you were like, do you want me to read it to you? And I was like, yeah, show me. And you like wouldn't show me right away.
Chapter 5: What insights do the hosts share about relationship communication?
And so I pulled it up and so I start reading it and then I started crying. Well, because I couldn't speak. I was crying, sobbing. I and Morgan was like, I need to see this right now. And I was like, just wait, because... I've I kind of wanted her to read it for the first time, like in front of you guys, because it's just the most touching thing ever.
But anyway, I actually was hoping that we could save that for a rainy day because I'm like smiling right now and I feel like I don't want to cry. It's so good, though. So good. And I think it's just a beautiful story to get us started. However, if you are a crier. I would say come back to this because it is, it's going to put you in your feels.
So it's coming from our very own Two Hot Takes subreddit. It is a couple days old now. Titled, Two Hot Takes Saved My Life. Not in a symbolic way, for real. Oh my gosh. Hi all. First time write-in, long time listener. I was diagnosed with leukemia a little over two years ago. I can remember getting the news like it was yesterday. The world felt like it was caving in on me. I kept asking, why me?
Why, of all people, does this happen to me? Hospital stays and chemo became my life, and it felt like there was no end. I was constantly throwing up and bedridden with sickness. I could barely walk and had to be carried from place to place. Every time I got a spinal tap, which was every other week, I got debilitating spinal migraines. You get the gist. It was awful.
Chapter 6: How do the hosts respond to a listener's story about infidelity?
One year down and there was still only extremely small signs of remission. Next thing I know, it's approaching two years later. Still no remission. I was pondering the idea of stopping treatment and letting myself pass because I didn't want to live like this. The night before I was going to tell my doctors my decision, I decided to put on an episode of Two Hot Takes to help me fall asleep.
I would listen to the podcast during chemo infusions to help pass the time. Love you, Morgan. By the time I got to the end of the episode, I still couldn't fall asleep. On came the end of the podcast where Morgan and her guests just chat a little bit. I unfortunately can't remember exactly what was said, but something made me burst out laughing. It was the most I had laughed in a long time.
I wish I knew what was said, but it sure was hilarious. After having that moment, during this specific moment in my life, something shifted. I decided to wait another week just so I could hear another podcast. One week turned into three, which turned into months. Four months later, I am now in remission. I never thought this day would come, but here I am.
I still have a long road ahead of me, but I am finally seeing some light. If it weren't for Morgan's podcast, I might have given up on my treatment and not been here today. Thank you, Morgan. Thank you, THT Weekly guests. Thank you, THT listeners who keep this podcast going. Thank you to my doctors who are saving my life. Thank you to my family and friends sticking by my side.
It's also so sweet that she mentioned the listeners, too, because it's true. Like this wouldn't keep going without you guys. So it's the whole reason we're here. I mean, we've joked about this from the beginning. Like if no one would have listened, it would have been done a long time ago. Yeah.

Chapter 7: What lessons are learned from the discussion on loyalty tests?
I've just I've cried so much over this story and just how incredibly strong she is and just you don't realize how many people are on the other side of this show sometimes. And it's just it's so impactful. And thank you all. Thank you to people like Lauren for starting this show with me and just being here week after week with me and letting me cut you off all the time.
And just it wouldn't exist without us starting it together. Beautiful, beautiful comments on this, by the way. Like, just you guys showing up tenfold in the comments. It's been amazing to see. Yeah, I I know I read through the comments, too, and it's just it's such a beautiful and supportive group of people in those comments.
And I and it it's also just like a reflection of so much of the community that we have here. It's a good reminder, I think, for both. Both of us because we – I mean we're emotional and we're sensitive when we come across something that says – that hurts our feelings online, right? But there's always going to be like that online.
There's always going to be someone who has a problem with something or like takes something – in a way that you didn't mean it or, you know, maybe we were tripping up over our words in a weird headspace and didn't even communicate something right. So, like, we get so in our heads and then sometimes it's like we forget that there is this large community who...
They're not the ones in the comments being like, I didn't like that you said this. They're literally listening during chemo treatments. And that's what makes us keep going. And that's what makes us love this podcast and love you guys is like that reminder that there's so much beauty to this and to not let ourselves get caught up on something that might hurt our feelings. Absolutely. Absolutely.
I... I just, like, don't even have any words. I just—it makes you realize why, like, it's so important to keep going. And this, like, I feel like I messaged her, and I'm just like, I feel like you healed my burnout. Yeah. I'm just like— Yeah. I'm like, you healed me. You did say that.

Chapter 8: How do the hosts conclude their thoughts on relationships and trust?
After she read that, we were both crying, and she was like, burnout who? I know, literally. I've already cried over your write-in three times, by the way, so I'm like, I actually was able to get through it reading, which I'm just like— I'm like so proud of myself. But I sent her a message and I'm going to be sending her a little goodie. And I'm just I'm so grateful. I'm so, so, so grateful.
And I know I will piss you off sometime very soon. So just keep loving me. I'm so sorry. But here we go. Girl. Girl. Girl. Girl. How do you feel when people say girly or girly? Hey, girly pop. Hey, girlies. I was going to Google what girly pop actually meant. Probably means girly pop. It's a playful Gen Z slang term to address a close female friend. Hey, girly pop.
I thought that's been around for a long time. Are we giving that to Gen Z? Google is. Actually, you know what? No, it probably is Gen Z. Because I can't think of anyone who said that when we were in high school. You know what's crazy? It's even in Webster. Webster dictionary. But okay, here we go. Yeah, get that red flag ready, Lauren. This is coming from Am I Overreacting?
It's titled, Am I Overreacting? My husband doesn't want me to come to his military boot camp graduation when I already paid for plane tickets. First thought, not overreacting. Let's hear what else, though. My husband, 27 male, graduates from the U.S. Air Force boot camp. It's about two months long. Before he left, he told me he didn't want me there at graduation.
I, 21 female, was really upset about it, especially since this is a huge thing, and I wanted to be there to tap him out. Throughout our relationship, he's made decisions without really involving me, including joining the military. I told him before he left that if he changed his mind to let me know because I would really love to come.
He told me not to take it personally because he wouldn't want his mom there either, but she lives in another country, so she wouldn't be able to anyways. Since they barely get phone access during boot camp, most communication has to be through letters. I got my first mail from him with his printed graduation information, and on the back he wrote, quote, I love you.
I know this part is on me, but I took that as him changing his mind about me coming, and I got excited and bought plane tickets. I admit I should have confirmed it first before spending the money, but I genuinely thought things had changed. I sent him a letter telling him how excited I was to see him and celebrate.
He recently got access to text briefly and told me he does still not want me to come and that I need to figure it out with the plane tickets. The tickets are non-refundable, but I can change the dates. Hundreds of families and spouses attend the two-day graduation to celebrate their airmen, and I can't understand why he doesn't want me there.
I've asked him for a reason, but he won't really give me one. Am I overreacting for being upset about this, and what should I do? I feel stuck and about to crash out. Yeah, he's definitely sketchy. And who sends an invite with all the information and then says don't come? What do you mean? Specifically when there's like a lack of communication, right? You're not talking.
