Is it an open marriage? Or co-habitation with girlfriends? Amy & Tommy discuss Chapter 24 of Miranda July's All Fours wherein kissing is invented and orgasms are water creatures. There's more, of course: how preparing for a first date is good advice for long term relationships, the way in which a flash of attraction that melts away should be available to all of us, and the pressure of "I love you" even when it's spoken by a journeying soul. 

It's all of this and SO MUCH MORE! 

Mentioned in this Episode:

All Fours by Miranda July

Mules of Love by Ellen Bass


Original Music:
