Relationsh!t Podcast

Got some sh!t to say?

To close out 2021, Marko and Tony countdown to the ultimate #QueerRelationshipGoals of the fourth season.  Join the guys as they highlight their favorite couples and revisit their impact on the podcast, the Critellis, and the queer relationship narrative.  Who do you think will win? Then a trip down memory lane brings the guys to the best Listener Sh!tuations voicemails and emails of the year. Whether it is how to handle a partner that doesn’t want to get the vaccine and all your trips and adventures are now grounded, or your new partner is bisexual to everyone except their parents and you can’t figure out how you feel about it, the Critellis have some guidance for you! Check out this ode to Relationsh!t with a wrap-up of Listener Sh!tuations for 2021.

We fell in love with this week’s #QueerRelationshipGoals, Paul Margolin and Sergio Zapata (@paulheartsergio), for SO many reasons.  Not only are they gorgeous, successful, and insanely in love with one another, but they are also wonderful and so full of life - and it makes us smile.  If you want to smile too, check them out on IG! Then, Marko and Tony sit down to talk about a very important vow: “In sickness and health …”. When your partner is sick, it can be very difficult to see them suffer - but taking care of your sick partner can be even harder.  What should you do to make your partner feel better when they are sick? And, do you consider yourself a good caretaker?  Then, the guys are joined at the Virtual Critable by friend of the podcast, Steve Lowe (@steeeeevn) to talk about creating the artwork for the new “Things Overheard in the Bathroom at the Gay Bar” graphic for the Relationsh!t IG page.  Steve walks us through each character in the scene and tells us about his inspiration for creating them, as well as the landscape of the bar.

Wives, Tina and Toya (@find_her_keep_her) are this week’s #QueerRelationshipGoals. Based in Florida, this insanely gorgeous couple is giving us everything we love in an inspirational couple: love, passion, travel, adventure, and their undeniable boss bitch status! This is black love at its finest and we are absolutely obsessed with them.  Check them out on IG and fall in love with them too! Then, because it is a Holiday week, Marko and Tony were lazy and did not record a new episode for the podcast - but they did not leave you without some Relationsh!t content to listen to! Join the guys for four “best-of” bites of their Patreon-exclusive segment Critelli Crap where they read their relationship problems to each other and try to solve them in a completely unbiased manner. And if you’re not donating to Relationsh!t on Patreon, hopefully this encourages you to do so!

In Derek and Romaine’s absence, Marko and Tony takeover the DNR 2.0 live show and talk about cheating. Nobody likes a cheater and there is nothing worse than being cheated on - but how do you recover after the original shock of such a betrayal? If you were ever cheated on, how would you react? What does being cheated say about you … or the person that cheated on you? The Critellis sit down with DNR Studios producer, JB, to talk about this topic and more. Tune in and let us know your thoughts!

This week, fiancés Ryan Tyler (@cookwithryan) and Michael Mugo (@moo.go) grace the podcast with their adorableness and undeniable love for one another. This chef and accountant not only look amazing together but also show us that relationships are so much better when adventure and friendship are at the forefront. Check them out on IG and show them some love! TRIGGER WARNING - Marko and Tony sit down to talk about a problem plaguing the LGBTQ+ community: intimate partner violence. So many queer relationships are experiencing abuse at the hands of their partner and the Critellis try to figure out why.  Then, the guys are joined at the Virtual Critable by the host of the Surviving Abuse Podcast, David Keck (@survivingabusepodcast). TRIGGER WARNING - David sits with Marko and Tony to recount an evening of karaoke and drinks with friends that ended with him as the victim of a hate crime. Bravely, David shares his story with the guys, proving that this unimaginable and terrible story can yield a strength that took time to embrace.

We can't get enough of our San Diego-based #QueerRelationshipGoals Jeremy Alan (@jer.alan) and his husband Jedd Davis (@jedd_with_2ds). Smiles, sunshine, and SKIN ... these guys have it all! They are adorable separately and together and we absolutely love them and know you will too.  Check them out on IG! Then, Marko and Tony sit down to revisit a season one topic: being a whole person before getting into a relationship.  There is nothing sexier than a person that knows themselves and has gotten their sh!t together, and that should always be the goal. But where does that journey start? And, how do we accomplish it? And further more ... how do you reconnect with yourself while in a relationship? Join the guys as they try to figure it all out. Finally, Marko and Tony sit down at the Virtual Critable to bring you the October edition of Listener Sh!tuations!
