Collectively we got together and made an episode to air our grievances with the medical field and it's lack of accommodations, consideration, or caliber of caring physicians when it comes to gynecological issues as well as mental health struggles. Our girls joined in on the jamboree and we shared some of the nightmares we've had to face in hopes that the insurmountable amount of you who have also been victims of the hands of the condescending pompous and big-headed, cold-hearted medical staff...

We got a surprise visit from Crow's brother, WonderBro, for Crow's birthday (HAPPY BIRTHDAY CROW)! So, naturally as one of our 1st and most faithful listeners, we asked WonderBro to sit in and do a podcast with us. In this episode we talked about his reconciliation with Crow and the surprises that whole process entailed and some of the ins and outs of our relationship dynamics. Most importantly, we talked about how wonderful it is to have so many more family members to love and cherish.

In this, our latest episode of the insanity we call a life, we go into double-speak and other back as*ward means that people use to "communicate" their needs - and why just saying what the fork you mean is the best method of practice all around ... So - say what the fork you mean and mean what the fork you say. And dive into a more tasty meal of living.

Listen in this week to our longest episode to date as we discuss the "cons" of polyamory. In everything in life, it's all about perspective. We've discussed lots of the ins and outs, but never quite pointedly discussed the "cons." You'll even be subjected to a rather rare (on mic anyway) Xan "mic drop" moment and a J's rant (yeah, another one - sorry not sorry)!! Become a Patreon...

If we could have been paid for every single snide or off-hand comment people make to not just polyam people, but to people who are living "alternative" lifestyles, we would be swimming like Scrooge McDuck in our filthy earnings for having endured the preposterous statements and accusations we encounter on nearly a daily basis. In this episode, you get to relive them with us - without the damage of having swam through gold coins - and maybe we'll even touch upon the ones that you've gotten...

In this week's episode, we discuss nesting and living agreements. Having any sort of functional way of living, whether single, polyam, monog, or what have you, in order to maintain a sense of order and flow, we put into place tons of living agreements. We discuss some that we've encountered throughout our polyam life and the ones we've incorporated into our happy little polycule to help from being driven to drop the People's Elbow on our cherished loved ones.

Many times, we disregard our needs because they have been minimalized and marginalized in society as being "choices." While it's important to recognize chances to compromise, it is also important to advocate for those things that make you - you and how people can show up for you and fulfill your desire to live your best life. As Crow mentions in this episode, many wouldn't buy a home without indoor plumbing - but, in the grand scheme of things, it's not considered a "need" when in actuality -...
