Episode 26: Don't Ask Don't Tell

Welcome to HEART REACTS, an advice podcast for all of us trying to remain emotionally functional through the collapse of late capitalism.

This week, we discuss two very different versions of "don't ask don't tell" relationship policies, as we consider the ethics of disclosure in nonmonogamous relationships (that's right, the Poly Chronicles continue) and how upset to get about bad behavior from a hookup. With an update from a former questioner!

Stuff We Discuss:

Episode 11: The Ways We Ought To Live

Angela Willey, Undoing Monogamy

Jo Freeman, The Tyranny of Structurelessness

Huw Lemmey and Ben Miller, Bad Gays: A Homosexual History
