Liz is obsessed with the podcast Normal Gossip, while Chris is considering a new angle on voting in his last California election.  Then we get into a topic we haven't heard nearly enough about: couple friends.  Why is it so much more complicated to make couple friends than individual ones?  What are the signs of a good couple friend for us and our partners?  And crucially for Chris: Who pays the bill when you go out to dinner with another pair? Plus, our top five dinner guests.  We did not expect that making this list would change our lives, but for one of us... it kind of did.

Note:  This episode was recorded before the election and also before Twitter became even more of a raging dumpster fire than it already was!
