Summary

While it’s fun to sow your wild oats, I want to make the case for moving on here. Young people, partying and getting STDs is fun for like, a decade, but it gets old around 25. Try moving on to the next chapter. Feminism and porn is making both of you think there’s no point to life but take it from someone who crossed over to the other side, there is another world out here. Also, married people, can we stop treating divorce like it’s a casual trip to the dentist. It’s a brutal procedure that destroys kids lives (the same kids I was just trying to sell marriage to). Traditionalism may be uncool but ignoring its merit gets sadder and sadder as you get old.

Marriage is easy. Divorce is difficult. I'm not getting divorced.

0:05.7

By no people who are, who have, I'm kind of fascinated by divorce,

0:10.8

which is a very romantic thing to be fascinated by when you're married, but

0:16.0

I don't know, ma'am.

0:18.4

I was just with my relatives on the weekend and I was talking to my cousin's wife, whatever the hell that is.

0:26.1

And I was saying, so what's going on? You have siblings? She goes, well, yeah, yeah, you know, I have a step sister

0:31.4

from my dad's first marriage. Well, I was my dad left and then that I was adopted by my stepfather.

0:39.5

And then he, they broke up when I was 18, then he remarried. So they're kids.

0:44.8

And this is usually the story, right? For about 50% of the population,

0:49.8

sorry, I just ran down the hallway.

0:54.0

And every time I get this explained to me from the children of divorce, which is my generation,

1:00.6

Gen X, and everyone after that, I just think, what a mess. What a terrible mess your parents made.

1:09.3

I think that one of the reasons my wife and I are attracted to each other is initially is because

1:14.0

she comes from two parents who are together, I come from two parents are together,

1:17.6

and we knew we'd both be in it for the long haul. And there are some rocky times.

1:24.7

Yeah, there's some ups and downs. You know, I was used as it's like moving to China.

1:29.6

We have to learn a new language and you got to ride it out. I've lived in China for a while, it sucks.

1:38.8

Not a very inspiring episode, is it? Marriage doesn't suck. But if you were to move to China,

1:45.2

you'd have to learn Chinese and read the Chinese newspaper and eat their gross food, learn about

1:50.0

the culture. And then you'd probably get into it. And then I bet three years in, you're sort of like

tout, tout, tout, tout, tout, tout, tout, choud'ing, n'igge, yes, I can say nega if I'm speaking Mandarin.
