Summary

A man is enjoying his new cool girlfriend. The thing is? She isn't an insane lunatic like his other girlfriends. Is this a problem? Oh man. This one's good. Should a woman accept her ex's offer to give his KIDNEY to her desperately ill father? Will there be strings attached? Oh my god? On the Magnum, Dan chats with stand-up comedian Cameron Esposito. And, a woman had some awesome group sex at an Air BnB. The owner gave her a very public negative review. Was she sex-shamed?

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

0:25.1

There's a lot I could talk about at the top of today's show.

The Republican Party's new and horrible and obscene tax bill or Mike Locker Up

0:32.8

Flynn's guilty plea lock his ass up.

0:35.2

How about that?

0:36.3

Or the mounting evidence that Trump is impaired on its

0:38.9

25th Amendment time in the city. Or I could treat you all to my annual Christmas isn't sexy and there
