Summary

Ok, let’s say you don’t drink alcohol. But you do drink piss, right? If your lover drank a bunch of beer and then you drank his piss, did you just drink alcohol? A woman had an affair with a man she had been very close friends with. His wife found out, and it all blew up. He asked to cut off all contact while he fixed things with his wife. She just learned that he has cancer, and the caller wonders if she can reach out to him now. Heart-breaking! On the Magnum, Dan enlists the help of sex and culture writer Magdalene Taylor to talk about why people are not having enough sex. Her piece in the New York Times paints a very grim picture indeed. Even in Berlin this is happening! Also, the son of a co-worker is spouting some incel ideology online. Should the caller say something to the mom? And, a woman keeps dating men who look alike! She just started dating a man who looks so much like her nasty ex, that she’s worried people will comment on it. It’s embarrassing, but is it a deal-breaker?

0:00.0	You're listening to the microversion of the Savage Love cast at Savage.loaf.
0:22.7	Alexander Blackwelder, a youth pastor in East Tuppalo, Mississippi,
0:27.4	denied bail last week after being charged with raping a 16-year-old girl he met at his church.
0:33.2	An interesting thing about Alex, something lawmakers in Tennessee might want to take note of,
0:38.1	not a drag queen. Two young-ish pastors, brothers, Clark and Matthew Travis, don't know if they're
0:44.2	youth pastors, but they're certainly young pastors based on their photographs. Two brothers,
0:49.3	pastors arrested last week after allegedly assaulting five children at two churches,
0:55.9	where they served as pastors in Texas. Also, not drag queens. The youth pastor in California,
1:02.4	Jonathan Jenkins, who last week was sentenced to 12 years in prison for sexually assaulting a 12-year-old
1:07.1	girl, not a drag queen. A youth pastor in Massachusetts, Russell Davis, who raped three boys at the church,
1:13.0	where he worked last week, sentenced to four years in prison, which seems short to me. Also,
1:18.8	last week, a pastor in Oklahoma charged with a decent acts of the minor. Also, last week, a pastor in
1:24.3	Wisconsin pleaded guilty to indecent acts with a minor. And last week, a Sunday school teacher in
1:30.0	Michigan was arrested on child sex charges. I could go on and on. And on, I could go on reading
1:37.6	the names of more pastors, youth pastors, Sunday school teachers, and priests who were arrested or
1:44.0	tried or pleaded guilty or were found guilty or were sentenced just last week, because there are more.
1:51.2	Lots more from just last week. And none of them were drag queens and none of them were trans women.
1:58.2	And none of them were non-binary elementary school teachers who posted something sensible to TikTok
2:03.7	or something stupid or something outrageous or something very deeply cringed to TikTok and wound
2:09.8	up on lips of TikTok and then spent a whole week fielding death threats. None of them are the people.
2:16.0	Right-wing hate mongers like the hate mongers behind lips of TikTok are trying to convince people
2:22.3	are a threat to their children. The real threats to your kids are right there in your churches up
