Summary
This one ended up being a pretty distinct two-parter! First up, some Thomas news and discussion of processing when a baby is literally driving you insane. Also, some sleep training talk and various other things. THEN, we get to the topic of reading your partner's phone. Thomas and Eli's opinions are probably boring and not insane, but what about Tom? He could go either way on this one and Thomas and Eli have a lot riding on it. Tune in and find out!

We were going to talk about consent on today's show. It's the intro. We're weird. That's the interview I came up with. This is going to be. Oh, God. Someone else has to write these little intro blurb. I'm taking a lot of hate these days. A lot of hate. Well, get ready for more, Tom, because I would like to predict that this is one of my favorite episodes of the show. This is going to be a, to, Tom is crazy episode.

Now it's all through my actual insurance because that was all out of pocket. Oh, because you went through like one of those like services. Yeah, like a. Yeah. And it was fine when it was generic Adderall, but because that doesn't exist anymore, you can't get Adderall ever, at least where I am.
