If you're stuck in a relationship quandary, or if you're looking for sexual harmony,

Well, there's nothing you can't ask on the Savage Lovecast.

Hey, everybody, welcome to this show.

It's been a couple of weeks since I actually sat down to record a podcast.

We banked a few of them in advance.

from me getting home and trying to initiate something,

and even like during the weekends, whenever I want to have sex, she's kind of like, oh,
