A little over a year ago, I sat down with my wife Aimee for a gloves off talk about married life.

We are still married.

Stay tuned for new eps.

Catch me on "Good Kids: How Not to Raise an Asshole"  Tuesday February 18th 

Michael Buckley joined me live for a Christmas Special last year. Special guest star: my kid. 

Season 4 is coming in the New Year!!

I'll re-examine 10 of my favorite Lighter Side episodes, along with my best friend and hetero life mate Michael Buckley, as well as give you some juicy updates on past guests, and hit you with a few brand spankin new interviews.

Be sure to check out the Good Kids podcast from Lemonada Media in the meantime. I'll be a guest there soon, discussing how to raise Good Kids, a topic I am sorely unqualified for.

 

The Lighter Side ends Season 3 the same way it started Season 1, with the inimitable Jenny Bee. We discuss what it's like to be 1.5 years out of surgery and just generally enjoy each other's company.

Thank you to all of the listeners, followers, supporters, etc. This is the 69th (heehee) episode of the Lighter Side. I hope you have enjoyed the show and have taken something from it. I know I have.

I'm going to put together a "Best Of The Lighter Side" over the next few weeks. As far as totally new episodes, the show will be on indefinite hiatus.
