This week we decided to just completely go off the rails and forget about what our main topic was going to be. Oh well, there's always next week. In the meantime we talked about The A Big Consignment Sale, mouth noises, slander, being judgmental, working off of first hand information, the danger of unrepentant sin, Calvinist Batman, church discipline, personal beliefs VS political beliefs, Russian conspiracy theories, the polarization of social media, and the Cranberries.

WARNING: We are a married couple and we're talking about how to love each other. Yes, there are a couple casual references to sex in this episode because we think it ought to be normalized. If this offends you, you probably shouldn't listen.
