DeepSummary
The episode begins with an introduction from Jake Johnson and Gareth Reynolds, who welcome special guest Lamorne Morris from the podcast 'The Lemorning After.' They take calls from listeners, first addressing a woman named Emily who wants to have a threesome with her husband but is unsure how to bring it up or find a third person. The hosts offer suggestions like using dirty talk to gauge interest, hiring a professional for the first experience, or cutting to the chase and directly discussing it.
Later, Rachel Bilson and Olivia Allen from the 'Broad Ideas' podcast join to discuss a call from Sarah, who is receiving unsolicited gifts like weed and money from a man she barely knows. The hosts debate whether she should engage by sending foot pictures in exchange for the gifts or set boundaries.
Another call involves a woman named Lauren whose husband has become obsessed with optimizing his sleep routine, wearing a sleep mask and using various devices that Lauren finds off-putting. The group brainstorms ways to get him to ditch the excessive routine, like shaming the mask, cutting holes in it, or giving him an ultimatum between the mask and intimacy.
