Summary

We open the show with a marital tale of delicious rug burn. It's the battle of the podcast Goliaths! Dan welcomes Marc Maron to the show, and the two engage in a civil debate about whether porn can be "addictive." Also, they discuss a very special piece of equipment. Some of this convo is on the Micro version and all of it is on the Magnum. He likes to wear womens' clothing when he spanks it. She thinks this makes him queer. He insists he's not. She says he should find a lady who likes that sort of thing. He says he only wants her. These are the kinds of arguments this couple has. A lesbian plans to propose to her girlfriend of 4 years. She wants to throw a giant "proposal party" with friends and family from far and wide as a surprise. She was planning on doing this soon. You know, during the pandemic? Will Dan talk her out it? God, let's hope so. 206-302-2064 voicemail@savagelovecast.com ThredUP is the world’s largest online thrift store with over 35,000 brands at up to 90% off retail price.

0:00.0	You're listening to the micro version of the Savage Lovecast, www.com.
0:06.7	If you're stuck in a relationship quandary, or if you're looking for sexual harmony,
0:13.7	well, there's nothing you can't last on the savage lovecast.
0:25.1	The tweets were coming at me fast and furious.
0:28.7	I hope you saw this, Dan.
0:30.4	I'm sure everyone is sending this to you, Dan.
0:33.4	You're going to have to issue a correction, Dan.
0:36.7	A correction? Uh, no. An update, yes. We have discussed
0:42.2	semen and vaginal secretions and the novel coronavirus COVID-19 more than once.
0:47.3	While it's always been kind of obvious and common-sensey that it would be easy to catch COVID-19
0:52.8	if you got close enough to someone
0:54.4	who had the virus to actually have sex with that person. And most people with the virus
0:58.6	are asymptomatic, so you can't tell who has it just by looking at them. We were initially told
1:03.4	that the virus hadn't been detected in semen or vaginal secretions and therefore likely
1:07.6	wasn't sexually transmissible. However likely it was to be transmitted during sex, it wasn't going to be a sexually transmitted
1:14.4	infection when it grew up, which may seem like a distinction without a difference, but it does
1:19.0	kind of matter.
1:20.1	The more and different ways a disease can be transmitted, the likelyer it is to be transmitted.
1:25.6	But after being told that the virus wasn't found in these bodily fluids, we were informed
1:30.7	by none other than Dr. Jen Gunter herself that the virus hadn't been found in those bodily fluids
1:35.7	because they hadn't looked for it, which begged the question, why not?
1:40.6	Then we got some reassuring news two weeks ago.
