Twenty Good Summers

One of the challenges of forging a relationship later in life? Kids! In this episode, we talk about parenting and step-parenting and also P’s birthday festival this past weekend. Tune in for all the merriment… and complexity!

Are you loved for who you are, or do folks selectively pick and choose the parts of you they enjoy the most, regarding the rest as at best a quirk, at middling an inconvenience, and at worst a dealbreaker? Perhaps you should adopt the patented 20GS approach and stop G'ing an F! Join us to discuss.

WHAT?? Yes — this one’s about being game, doing things you never thought you’d do, because you don’t have unlimited time and you wanna get it all in. Also discussed: football, mushrooms and Chris Rock. Take the ride!

Bodies bodies bodies! They're getting older, and we're going to talk about 'em. About cosmetic enhancements and laser hair removal and varicose veins and shooting botulism into your face. It's a rollicking, freewheeling conversation in which we probably overshare, so tune in!

Spurred by an email from one of our listeners, we talk about “I love you” — when do you say it, why do you say it, when shouldn’t you say it, and what does it mean?
