Judson’s return from a trip to Southern California inspires a comparison of Los Angelenos and New Yorkers, and a conversation about how both Judson and Brian’s husband Toby are able to convince most who meet them that they are chill, when their husbands know otherwise. Brian observes Yom Kippur with Judson’s husband, and learns some words of wisdom that help him gain some perspective on how to exist in the current political climate. The two share their thoughts on Netflix’s Boots and Judson theorizes as to whether or not he could survive boot camp himself. The “Hookup of the Week” comes from a world traveler with a special message for a paramour an ocean away. It is then time for a Go Ask Your Dad Extravaganza, as Brian and Judson respond to four listener questions - one from someone who wants help communicating his frustrations about the attention he’s receiving (or not receiving) at bathhouses or sex parties to his partner who’s having a great time; one from someone who wants to explore being a Daddy, but doesn’t trust that what he might say or do will feel safe for others after the traumas he’s overcome on his journey to coming out; one from a couple who identify as shy who are looking to move out of Florida to a more LGBTQ-friendly environment and make friends; and ending with one from a listener asking what the best ways are to make a Daddy feel cared for.
