"I COMMITTED MARRIAGE FRAUD"

Lyle Drescher
About this episode

A caller tells me how he married his platonic male best friend in order to receive better benefits from his job and how the marriage has been going so far.

Next a man and I unpack his childhood relationship with his father and discuss whether or not he should attempt to make amends in his adult life. We also talk to a caller experiencing a toilet paper shortage conflict with his roommates, dig into the semi-universal experience of imposter syndrome, and weigh in on the age old debate of which way you should wipe your ass.

One day we will all be evaporated by a meteor. So have fun while you can. I am a gecko.
