Hey there, longest, shortest time listener. Be honest. Do you like listening to stories about

parenthood and reproductive health? Do you like when they're bold and complicated and funny and

poignant all at the same time? Of course you do. That's why you listen to the show, and it's part of what makes you special.

So I want to invite you to join our special club. It's called LST Plus, and when you join, you get all kinds of cool stuff.

You get to be part of our community where you can bond with other listeners.

You get to suggest story ideas for future episodes. You get access to a whole other show

with super awesome college kids talking about sex, dating, and relationships. And you get to hang out

with me and reproductive health experts and past guests and ask them questions. Membership is just

50 bucks a year or seven bucks a month. And if you want to

give more, you can. We've relaunched independently. So when you join the club, you're helping this

show to simply exist. Sign up is easy. Just go to longest shortest time.com slash club. See you there.

A door, a locked door that I can't open.

That's the first thing I always see.

I call it baby jail.

I'm like, this is baby joke.

You could come to jail because it's easy, right?

But to get out, it's hard.

It's real hard to get out.

You know, we're on a constant loop.

This loop never ends.

I don't think it's going to end.

The Loop.
