Speaker 1 (00:00):
Uh, so, Sky's sex life is a real roller coaster.
You know, it's quite a journey and we've all been
on it. Yeah, yeah, we've ridden that horseh this Sky. Okay,
that sounds weird, it does, but you know you're open
to sharing what's up with.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Your A real sensitive gag reef I was talking about
brushing my teeth.
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Sure. Yeah, we've heard a lot of stories over the years.
You know that you're a bit of a sex camel
where you're good, you'll have it. Like if you can
have sex like once every six months, maybe you're fine.
Speaker 2 (00:39):
Oh that sounds delightful too much. That depends depends how
I'm feeling.
Speaker 1 (00:43):
And you chose to marry somebody who is a sex fiend. Yeah,
and it doesn't mesh very well. It's difficult, Yeah, and
it's caused some issues in your relationship over the years
and things like that. But you guys came to an
agreement a while back that you would have sex at
least once a week. Yeah, you'd pick a day that's
when you'd have sex once a week. Whatever. It did
(01:06):
get a little weird for a little while, where you know,
these since it's once a week, these grand sex capades
would happen where it would go for like four hours, right,
Emily would be disgusted here all the stories like they'd start.
Speaker 3 (01:17):
Out outside and then they'd hang out in the jacuzzi
and do weird stuff with their feet.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
I don't know what the hell was going on.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
In there, and then all of a sudden they'd move
it back inside. There's drinking going on.
Speaker 2 (01:27):
Oh my god, outfits, other ways to inflict Paine.
Speaker 1 (01:30):
That's it got even weird. And when it came to
that hours so they would do these sex capades and
then whatever, and then uh, you know, freak your things
started happening, and oddly enough, Sky, being who she is,
was somewhat open to it. And to her credit, she was,
you know, plann along to an extent. It's not get crazy,
but you were doing some stuff that you probably weren't
(01:51):
comfortable with.
Speaker 2 (01:52):
Yeah, I think he knew what he was doing because
you know, like you said, the sex capades were ramping up,
and then he waited till like his birthday to kind
of raw hotels day hotel, and then he would then
because once the bomb is dropped, you know, then he
would try and regularly.
Speaker 1 (02:12):
Can't put the toothpaste back in the two.
Speaker 2 (02:14):
No, you can't, sure can't.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
So it's out. It's out. Now what you know, you
got a kink on your hands. Then you know what
are you going to do? You either play along or
you get out.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Yeah, I really lack confidence when it comes to handle
and meat.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
We were talking about food.
Speaker 2 (02:30):
I know, I know what we're doing here.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
He seemed more confident. Now, yeah, so whatever, you know what? Uh?
And so that's the last we've sort of heard about these,
you know, sexual encounters between Sky and her husband. And
then it's sort of, I want to say, for the
past almost year or so, we haven't heard much. What's
going on? Where are we at with you and your
(02:55):
husband's sex life?
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Well, so we had we used to have a really
would set routine schedule to find our alone time Saturday nights, right,
but it would be like after my daughter went to bed,
But then we got the two dogs and they're trying
to be on the bed and so it just was
getting more and more like difficult and weird and whatever.
And then there was that stint where he would wake
(03:18):
her up at like two am. Yeah, we're giving that
a try because the daughter was staying up later than
I could stay up.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Yeah, and then the dogs.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
And then Emily's freaked out.
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Can you imagine somebody waking up in the middle of
the night and then giving him a drink. There's a
cocktail right there too.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
What Now, for the record, I requested this in a way.
It's not like he just came out of nowhere and
is waking me up. It's like, hey, I can't stay awake,
I'm gonna.
Speaker 1 (03:48):
Go to bed. Wake me up, Just wake me up whenever,
you know, sleep in your eye. It so, yes that
he's right.
Speaker 2 (03:58):
It's been a roller coaster of trying to kind of
find that happy, happy medium, and we had for a while,
but this last year fell off, fell off big time,
which okay, you're fine with it, but he's not fine
with it. It's again a mix of a couple of
(04:18):
things of paradise six years time, the excuse me, what,
we don't need to say all this?
Speaker 1 (04:32):
That's wild?
Speaker 2 (04:34):
Uh so yeah, so now I want to say we're
probably on every other week rotation. Oh no, And I
think it's a mix of two things. One, uh, you know,
just finding the time and the spot to have the
house to ourselves and when.
Speaker 1 (04:48):
Is it and I know this is going to really
upset you. Here's the weird thing is that you work
in the morning, your daughter you get home by at
least noon every day. Yeah, your daughter is at school
until what three thirty or whatever, So you have time
where you're home alone. You just don't want to right
because you're tired.
Speaker 2 (05:09):
Well yeah, and like for me, it's like, I know
he is wanting a three ring circus. So for me,
for the three ring circus, I want to take some time.
I want some drinks, I want some warm up situations.
Speaker 1 (05:23):
And yeah that's a you thing, not him.
Speaker 2 (05:25):
Yeah, and I definitely don't want to do that in
the middle, like on a Tuesday, you know.
Speaker 1 (05:30):
So you have the house to yourself. So that's sort
of what you do when you have kids, is if
you get time with it by yourself. This is when
we're getting after it, man, And so it's not ideal.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Well, I've had that thought, but I definitely don't want
to speak it out loud, you know what I mean,
because then.
Speaker 1 (05:44):
It would happen. I don't know if I want that.
Speaker 2 (05:47):
Okay, So now between just schedule issues and then I think,
because me and my husband are both in our late forties. Now,
I feel like our hormones are changing.
Speaker 1 (06:00):
You're saying crazy things. You know, his hormones have not changed.
He's still a horny man, Yes.
Speaker 2 (06:06):
He is, and he's definitely hornier than I am, but
he's not harassing me as much. So I don't know
if if the if the tea's gone down a little
or he's down, or if I've just beaten him down
where he's just gonna leave me alone.
Speaker 1 (06:22):
Yeah, But I know for me, definitely.
Speaker 2 (06:24):
Like my hormones this last year, oh yeah, like a
dead fish all day.
Speaker 1 (06:28):
Come on, Like if I could.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Just snap the rest of my life away, that sounds
that sounds ideal. So my hormones not in the most
sexual of places right now. So we're about every other
week right now, which yeah, is not ideal for.
Speaker 1 (06:45):
Him, poor Thor. I mean, do you remember what it's like.
I mean, you had a new baby. You know, your
wife was pregnant for nine months, and because we had
a healthy sex life, yeah, out of all of us,
then were probably the craziest.
Speaker 2 (06:56):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (06:56):
And then my wife got pregnant and like you know,
she didn't have the easiest pregnancy, you know, and then like.
Speaker 1 (07:02):
Since then, that's the last thing on her mind.
Speaker 3 (07:04):
Yeah, and then now postpartum has been a little tough,
so we've had some issues there, but but she's finally
gotten like right mentally, so I haven't pushed the subject
or anything. And then also I'm kind of I've let
myself go a little bit. I don't know if you
guys notice.
Speaker 1 (07:19):
Yeah, I just kind of, Man, you're still come the way.
I wait, did you hear ed? Appreciate it? You know,
but I have sex with you. I'm just trying to
help me. I'm trying to.
Speaker 3 (07:40):
So I feel like once I start getting back in
the gym, which is today, I will start because it's
been like ten weeks, so I'll start, I know, so
I'll start feeling hornier again, and then like I'll start
initiating and we'll start.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Getting we go, we go. But yeah, so yeah, me
and my wife, we don't have a set schedule or
anything like that. We just whenever the time comes and happens,
it happens. And so we can go a week where
it's like non stop, and then we can go a
week when there's nothing and and it's just it's normal
(08:12):
to me.
Speaker 2 (08:12):
So it's just sort of time that would go by,
and you'd be like, oh, this is weird.
Speaker 1 (08:16):
It's too long a week. When a week goes by,
I start to get a little frustrated, and she knows,
and so well, you know, I start there's a lot
of grabbing and things going on. She's like, Okay, I
probably should do something about this. But then you know,
there's other times when she's into it and I'm like,
all right, let's do this. You know, gus to you,
you know it grab you know what I'm saying. Well,
(08:46):
they they looked in there, and you know, when you
when you have sex, it does bring you together, and
it's supposed to connect you. And it's supposed to be,
you know, an intimate thing. It's supposed to be an
intimate thing. You know, you're not supposed to be woken
up from a dead se and just lay there. You know,
I mean, no fense, You don't define me. You're right,
You're right.
Speaker 2 (09:04):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (09:04):
So the experts got in there and tried to figure out, all, right, well,
how much sex should couples have to stay connected?
Speaker 2 (09:11):
Yeah, and they found that there is a sweet spot
After interviewing thousands of US adults about their sex life.
This was done recently by the University of Washington, and
they found that sex once a week is the sweet
spot for staying connected.
Speaker 1 (09:29):
When when you're with somebody for a while in the beginning,
you're gonna have sex, and then once you're with somebody
for a good length of time, if you can bang
it out no pun intended, once a week, I feel
like that's good. Yeah, it's good.
Speaker 2 (09:42):
Yeah. And they definitely say it's quality over quantity. They say,
just because you do it more than once a week,
that's not going to make you more connected. It's that
once a week that is the sweet spot. And they
recommend cocktails. Yes, cocktails are always helpful, but they say
about once a month you should try something new, whether
(10:05):
that's a position, a different type of day. They say
about once a month to keep it fresh.
Speaker 1 (10:12):
Okay, okay, so Sky what somebody talking to me?
Uh, so, Sky's sex life is a real roller coaster.
You know, it's quite a journey and we've all been
on it. Yeah, yeah, we've ridden that horseh this Sky. Okay,
