0:00.0 | You're listening to the microversion of the Savage Love Cast at Savage.lo. |
0:23.3 | We could use a good sex scandal right about now. One or two or three |
0:28.8 | to distract us if only for a moment from the state of the world. Which is, as I'm sure I don't need to tell you, |
0:36.0 | not good. Now, when I talk about a good sex scandal, I don't mean anything non-consensual or |
0:41.6 | clerical and I don't mean something like the New York Post finding out a paramedic has an only |
0:46.3 | fans account because paramedics aren't paid for shit and then outing her and ruining her life, |
0:50.6 | which happened just a couple of years ago. Now, those aren't good sex scandals. Would I prefer, |
