| 0:00.0 | You're listening to the micro version of the Savage Lovecast at savage.love. |
| 0:05.0 | If you're stuck in a relationship quandary, or if you're looking for sexual harmony, |
| 0:14.4 | while there's nothing you can't ask on the Savage Lovecast. I'm traveling today, so a briefer than usual intro this week. |
| 0:26.5 | And a brief explanation right here at the top of that sound you're about to hear, |
| 0:31.5 | which is Nancy banging her head on her desk because Nancy doesn't like it when I talk about |
