Summary

A married woman has lost all sex drive. Her husband is willing to let her be with other men. But the thought of her husband with another woman makes her so jealous that her mouth goes dry. Is this gonna work out ok? A straight man with a newly issued hall pass is having a hard time meeting ladies who will sleep with him because they know he's in a relationship. Why must it be this way? Why?! On the Magnum, Dan chats with author Johann Hari, on our silly little drug war, and how drug abuse results from boredom and isolation, not drug availability.

0:00.0	You're listening to the micro version of the Savage Lovecast, www.com.
0:06.6	If you're stuck in a relationship quandary, or if you're looking for sexual harmony,
0:16.0	while there's nothing you can't ask on the Savage Lovecast.
0:24.7	Arkansas gave us Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton by way of Chicago.
0:29.6	It also gave us Walmart, which destroyed a lot of communities and provides a lot of people with sub-poverty level wage jobs.
0:37.2	It also gave us Mike Fucking Huckabee, who is waging
0:40.5	jihad against Beyonce in an effort to reach out to voters of color and young people in his
0:45.7	soon-to-be- laughable footnoted effort to secure the Republican nomination in 2016. Arkansas
0:52.7	right now, this weekend, actually, let's pause for a second here. This
0:56.4	weekend in Arkansas, lots of people poured into movie theaters to see 50 Shades of Gray. Arkansas was

1:47.5	a butt plug in them at will and see if they think to strike it. See if their lawyers even notice it.
1:53.7	Anyway, lots of people in Arkansas poured into theaters this weekend to enjoy all of this kinky,

2:04.2	There's been a lot of writing about how awful 50 Shades of Gray is, and now we're getting the counterfactuals.
2:09.5	Amanda Hess at Slate, whose work I cite often, who's really smart, you should be reading her,
