Summary

Naomi first heard Gearóid Farrelly on sister-podcast (???) Ask Ronna, and introduced him into the household where we fell in love with him, and so we had to have him on the show! Now, maybe you are a listener across the pond, can you know Gearóid from his stand-up, his award winning Edinburgh Festival show, supporting Joan Rivers on tour, or from his podcast Agony Rants? Well, even if you don't know Gearóid from Adam, you're gonna go gaga for him after today's episode! We talk about his love of convenience, how his relationship with his boyfriend works, the Irish medical system & mental health, grief, and so much MORE! PLUS, obvi, we answer YOUR advice questions! If you'd like to ask your own advice questions, call 323-524-7839 and leave a VM or just DM us on IG or Twitter!

Support the show on Patreon (two extra exclusive episodes a month!) or with a t-shirt (or a Jewboo shirt) and check out clips on YouTube! And why not leave a 5-star review along with the worst person you ever dated on Apple Podcasts? (Every once in a while we'll do a Twitch show, if you want to also follow us there). Plus! Check out Andy's old casiopop band's lost album! And discounted Couples Therapy Quarantine Crew t-shirts here (if you don't get one, we're gonna have A LOT of nightshirts over at the ol' Beckperigin household!)!

0:00.0	Open your hearts, loosen your bolts. It's time for couples therapy.
0:30.0	Hello everyone and welcome to couples therapy. My name is Andy. I'm Naomi. We're a real-life couple.
0:40.2	We're a real-life couple of comedians. On couples therapy we answer a couple different
0:43.5	questions from a couple different listeners. Andy, you're flying high right now. Something
0:48.9	has happened that just made you believe in the power of humanity, the power of prayer,
0:53.2	the power of preparation. Yes, maybe this isn't a dark political moment for all. Maybe we are moving
0:59.2	into a true utopia. Who knows? I thought it. I doubt it. I noticed a crack on my phone screen
1:06.4	and I go, oh fuck, is that the crack on the phone or is that a crack in the protector?
1:12.8	And then I peeled it off and it was indeed a crack on the protector. Yes, something I bought
1:18.6	functioned as it was supposed to function. A protector protected. The protector protected.
1:24.8	I mean, when have you heard it happening? When have you ever heard of a protector protecting?
1:29.7	Not just that. Not in 2023. Not just that. When has anything in the modern world built to crumble
1:36.0	under your under your touch? When has it functioned correctly? I bought a brand new air purifier
1:43.0	that's lightweight, handheld. I'm telling you, I bought it. I used it one time maybe twice.
1:51.6	I take it into the doctor's office and when I tell you, it fell to the carpeted ground
1:57.8	and will not work anymore. It's done. It's done. I got three uses two and change actually
2:03.2	because it only was only for all the two seconds and something went on in there and it's done.
2:07.6	It's done. It says it has a five year limited warranty, but do you know what it takes to get me to
2:12.4	a post office? I mean, I just, it'd be easier for me to just travel across the country to drop off
2:19.5	whatever it is I want to send. It would actually happen sooner if I did that. I opened it up to look
2:23.8	to see if I could fix it myself and inside, you know, you take out the little air filter thing,
2:28.7	the little happy guy and then farther down in, there's like a little thing holding the little,
