We’re back and kicking off a two-part series from our epic two-week adventure in Southeast Asia! In this episode, we’re diving into the first leg of the journey: Bali, Indonesia 🇮🇩

We spent a week in Ubud and Sanur in Bali with 19 of our amazing listeners, exploring the Sacred Monkey Forest 🐒, getting blessed at ancient temples 🛕, screaming (just a little) on the Bali Swing 🌄, and soaking up the culture, chaos, and beauty of island life. From spiritual moments to spontaneous laughs and matching tattoos, we’re unpacking what made this part of the trip unforgettable (we probably missed a few stories).

Whether you joined us or followed along from afar, this one’s for you.

🎙️ Part 2 (Thailand!) drops next week.

💍 The Ultimatum: Queer Love Season 2 is finally here — two years later, and we’re ready for the drama.

Also… we're heading to Bali and Thailand soon! If you’ve been, comment your best tips, hidden gems, or must-avoid mistakes 🙏🏽

Family Meeting Time 🧠💔
One listener is in a long-distance relationship that began as polyamorous but turned exclusive, or so they thought. After a betrayal involving an ex from the original poly dynamic, they're wondering:

“Am I wrong for asking my partner to cut off contact with her ex if we’re going to make this work?”

We break it all down:

• What polyamory actually means (and how it differs from open relationships)

• Why emotional and physical boundaries still matter after shifting to monogamy

• What to do when trust is broken and accountability is missing

• The hard truth: Love isn't enough without respect, clarity, and shared values

Plus, we highlight a past podcast gem: “The Contract to My Polyamory” ft. Jerrie Johnson — a powerful conversation on redefining relationship structures and setting intentional agreements. (Go queue it up after this!)

And if you're curious about how real-life poly families make it work, we’re also talking about the show Polyfamily on HBO Max, messy, beautiful, and so worth discussing.

This week, we’re unpacking A LOT.

First up: the ICE raids in LA. We’re spreading the word, sharing where to donate, and why staying informed matters more than ever. (resources below)

Then, Fletcher? JoJo Siwa? Billie Eilish? All dating men during Pride Month?! Feels homophobic, honestly.

We also give you the rundown on our Philly & DC Pride adventures, queer joy, wild moments, and a few hangovers.

And in our Family Meeting, we hear from a listener who’s four years into a relationship and still wildly thirsty for her fine-ass masc girlfriend, but is starting to wonder if the passion is mutual. We’ve got thoughts (and experience 👀).

Make a difference during Los Angeles ICE raids.
