Summary

A man is about to have his wedding. He and his fiancé are swingers, and he wants the whole wide world to know it. His fiancé is more reticent to let family members know. Should he tell his children that they will be staying at a swinger’s resort after the ceremony and that they plan to bang a couple of their wedding guests? Monkey pox isn’t going anywhere folks. Dan brings back Dr. Carleton Thomas to talk about the vaccine, and how to communicate about it better. On the Magnum, Dan brings back cherished cartoonist and mental health coach Ellen Forney to talk about mood disorders, and whether to leave your pills out by the bed. Forney’s books “Marbles” and “Rock Steady” are must-haves whether you have bipolar, love someone who does, or are just interested in the subject. And, meet a woman who embodies the concept of GGG with exceptional valor. Her boyfriend was delighted when she accidentally peed during sex and then asked if she would, well, you know,…poop. Her concern? She’s a giggler and worries she’ll laugh through the whole thing. Is this a fake call meant to invoke the expression “shits and giggles?” Maybe! But it’s podcast gold so…enjoy!

0:00.0	You're listening to the microversion of the Savage Love cast at Savage.loaf.
0:23.4	Well, we got some good news out of Kansas of all places. That good news came last week.
0:29.6	A week. It's an eternity now. All weeks have been officially reclassified as
0:34.6	attorneys since November of 2016. The news out of Kansas happens a lot of ago that
0:40.3	Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson were still together. Joe Manchin and Kristen cinema were still
0:45.0	blocking Joe Biden's agenda in the Senate. And that poor woman on Reddit had yet to find the
0:51.0	jar under the sink where her husband was saving his semen. And yet to learn what her husband
0:56.7	had been doing with his semen throughout their marriage. You know, if someone were to run for
1:02.7	president and her only campaign promise was to make a week a week again, I would vote for that
1:09.0	person. Anyway, to quickly recap last Tuesday, voters in Kansas rejected a constitutional amendment
1:15.8	that would have made it possible for the Republicans who dominate the Kansas state legislature to ban abortion,
1:21.6	which they can't currently do because the Kansas state constitution, according to the Kansas state
1:26.8	Supreme Court, guarantees the right to bodily autonomy and guarantees it not just to men, but to
1:34.0	women too, which seems crazy. Republicans thought this was a slam dunk, put wood amounts to a ban on
1:40.8	abortion on the ballot in a red state, put it on a ballot in August during a primary election when
1:46.1	only Republicans are up and when older people and Republicans are much more likely to vote and
1:51.2	watch your abortion ban get approved. But Kansas voters rejected it and they didn't just
1:59.0	reject it. They stomped it in a blood red state that Donald fucking Trump won by 17 points in 2020,
2:08.5	60% of Kansas voters in 2022 said no to banning abortion. All landslide for choice in Kansas.
2:19.4	In addition to what that means for the women of Kansas, they can still terminate a pregnancy,
2:24.4	women living in states around Kansas where abortion is already banned, women in Iowa, Nebraska,
2:29.9	Missouri, Oklahoma, Texas, Texas technically doesn't border Kansas, but it's right under that skinny
