Modern Marriage, Separate Beds, and Life...

About this episode

Kelly and Chip are back with a catch-up session full of life updates, laughs, and a deep dive into the way modern relationships are being redefined. From couples who live apart to the surprising perks of separate bedrooms, they unpack the rise of “off-kilter” domestic arrangements and why more people are choosing love on their own terms. Chip shares his perspective on how the queer community has long been ahead of the curve in rewriting the rules—and why that might be a good thing for everyone.
