Summary

Ah. The old jiz-on-the-couch problem. This time it’s a 13 year-old boy just learning about the wonders of his youthful body. His mother wishes he would learn about socks and tissues. We’ve been hearing the word “narcissistic” hurled at exes a lot these days. But it is a genuine psychiatric disorder, and a rare one. Dan chats with Rebecca Fishbein who wrote an article in Bustle about therapy-speak and how it’s been weaponized lately. On the Magnum, Dan brings back sociology professor Dr. Kelsy Burke to talk about her new book- The Pornography Wars. They talk about the many enemies arrayed against porn throughout history, how porn and porn addiction get defined, and they advise a caller on whether he should tell his jealous girlfriend that he occasionally watches homemade porn of his exes. And, somehow a gay man in the South doesn’t know if there are apps that help people in open relationships meet and get laid.

0:14.3	while there's nothing you can't ask on the Savage Lovecast. Of course he didn't pick up the dumb fuck cast of course he didn't pick up the check of course
0:26.7	he stiffed those dumb motherfuckers it's ancient news now i realize last tuesday was a whole ass week ago
0:34.7	so this might as well have happened before the release of Home Alone, too.
0:38.8	But Donald Trump went from his arraignment in a federal courtroom in Miami to a Cuban
0:43.4	restaurant for a campaign stop, where he was met by a cheering crowd and cable news networks
0:49.0	that still haven't learned the lesson of 2016. And before he left, Trump called out to the cheering
0:53.9	crowd, food for everybody.
0:57.0	Now, we all know what shouting something like that means or is supposed to mean or what most
1:02.5	people are going to think it means. Shout drinks for everybody in a bar. And that means you're
1:08.6	buying. It doesn't mean the proprietors of this drinking establishment
1:12.0	are willing to serve alcoholic beverages to any members of the public over the age of 21 who
1:15.8	could afford to purchase said beverages. But you can argue on a technicality, drinks for
1:22.5	everybody, food for everybody doesn't mean I'm buying necessarily. It could be interpreted or spun as an observation,
1:30.1	not an offer or a promise. There are drinks for everybody who can afford to pay their own tab in a bar.
