Savage Lovecast

Savage Lovecast Episode 936

Tue, 08 Oct 2024

Description

An apology is required! But who is in the wrong here? An NB person got so, so sick with the covids. They had already made out with their boyfriend, so he was exposed. When they asked him to come over, deliver some food and offer bit of comfort, the boyfriend only agreed to drop off food outside the door. Should he have come inside and been more supportive? Or was it too much to ask to have him risk exposure? On a much heavier note, a woman's dad was discovered to have a three year-long affair. Then he died days later. The caller's mom is grieving, angry and bereft, and the caller is cynical.  Rejoice! Randy Rainbow is back. Our favorite parodic chanteuse is here to promote his new book "Low Hanging Fruit," and to dish with Dan about pregnancy fetishes, evangelistic nudists, and how very weird straight people are. A little is on the Micro, the whole salacious thing is on the Magnum.  A man has been with his husband for 9 years. The caller is enjoying their newly open relationship, but his husband neither wants to cat around himself, nor approves of the caller's exploits. Can a slut and a demisexual make it work together?  They've gotta try! Q@Savage.Love         206-302-2064 This episode is brought to you by Helix Sleep.

Hey everybody, it is my birthday this week and I'm away. So got a short intro for you, a packed show, but a short intro and an ask, a favor, something I want you, my listeners, to do for me for my birthday. You know that expression, fuck around and find out? It's never good what people find out. Someone fucks around taking selfies at the top of the Grand Canyon and they find out about gravity.

00:49 - 01:07 Dan Savage

Or in 2016, a whole bunch of people fucked around in the voting booth and voted third party because they thought Clinton was going to win and they find out, yeah, that wasn't a lock for Clinton. Best definition for fuck around and find out, I could find after fucking around online for a bit, was written by John Ancora.

00:00 - 00:00 Dan Savage

A colloquial expression used to convey a warning or a challenge, it implies that if someone continues to engage in risky or reckless behavior, they will eventually face negative consequences. The phrase is often used humorously or sarcastically to caution against making unwise decisions.

00:00 - 00:00 Dan Savage

You know, it seems to me when read literally and read pedantically, fucking around, taking risks doesn't always lead to negative consequences. I know it's been true in my own life, and I can't imagine I'm the only one out there for whom this is true, but there have been times when I fucked around and found out something I needed to know or wanted to know.

00:00 - 00:00 Dan Savage

Or I fucked around, I took a risk, I behaved a little recklessly, and I found someone I wanted to keep fucking around with for a while or forever. My point, sometimes we fuck around and find out something good. Sometimes we fuck around and find out something great. So here's what I want for my birthday. I want you, yes, you with the earbuds in listening to the show at the gym.

00:00 - 00:00 Dan Savage

Yes, you listening to the show in your car with the five-year-old in the backseat that you hope is asleep. Yes, you on the subway wondering if the little old lady sitting next to you can hear the show over your headphones. And yes, she can. I want you to jump into the comment thread for this week's show and share something good you found out fucking around.

00:00 - 00:00 Dan Savage

If it's not something you want to share with the whole class, if it's something for my eyes only, you can email your fucked around and found out something good story to me at mail at savagelove.net. This is all I want for my birthday. Some good stories about the great things that happened to you.
