Episode 27 begins with so much nice feedback that we cry!!!!! Literally no one is shocked by this.

Our Absolute Worst Therapy section kicks off with a problem we have literally never heard before!!! We are blown away and hope so much that we can help our favorite new listener, Desperately Seeking Dick. We also help a woman determine if she should travel internationally, while pregnant, and with a skittish husband. Afterwards, Dana and Alison are torn apart by a question about where to spend the holidays. As usual, Alison continues to be right about literally everything.

Alison then answers a pretty basic question because one of our listeners is too lazy to look it up themselves. Somehow this devolves into a pretty intense conversation about how we’re all living in the matrix.

In the Absolute Yourst section, we meet a sweet woman whose vagina is broken. She takes us on an incredible journey and in the end, our vaginas end up hurting too.

Alison and Dana ALWAYS want to hear your problems, advice, feedback and Absolute Yoursts! You can contact them through their website, friend them on Facebook, or follow them on Instagram and Twitter.

As usual, we kick off this episode with some listener feedback! We discuss small victories and opulent wedding cakes. We get to hear if our advice worked on a woman who was shacking up with her boyfriend in Vegas as well as a girl who is determined to start a pants company with Dana! We also discuss monster cats, weed oil, and songs that help people.

We fully dedicate this episode to Absolute Yoursts and kick it off with The Royer Trilogy. We then follow-up with a very comprehensive list of how to approach the homeless population. We also hear about a woman’s disastrous trip to Lowe’s, a terrible technique to get a guy’s attention, and a mom’s tortured journey to a child’s birthday party. Finally we hear the most terrifying catfishing story and Dana loses her shit.

This episode culminates in a heartfelt apology to Neva. We love you, grandma!

In several of our previous episodes we reference a listener who clocked us for not including “the male perspective.” We finally invite this listener, Ron Geren, to be a guest on AWP and help us navigate the world of men. Ron is an actor, director, and photographer based in Venice, CA. He just recently wrapped the independent film "Dreamer" Written and directed by Nick Miller and Johnny Zwick. Ron is currently in rehearsal for the upcoming PRT production of "True West" by Sam Shepard. You can check out his photography at www.geren.photography.

 

Ron expresses his concern that we’re therapizing our listeners and asks how we deal with the pressure. We then point out that our listeners are therapists too (literally, none of us are therapists) and we then read an email and article from a listener who was very upset that I said I had “mommy brain.” You can read the article in its entirety here: https://medium.com/@jennyhopkinsatx/working-for-two-c0513f07dcdb.

Afterwards, we get some feedback from a listener who we can’t stop thinking about and of course this leads to Alison crying…again.

In the Absolute Worst Therapy section, we hear from a man who wants to know how to get his wife to have anal. We then help another listener decide when enough is enough.

Ron ends this episode with an epic Absolute Yourst which requires not only an apology to Neva, but also an apology to Ron’s mom. SORRY, MOM!
