Summary
In this repeat episode, we explore the complexities of relationships, especially the challenge of maintaining intimacy in the chaos of parenting. We candidly talk about how our attention is so often consumed by our kids that there’s not always much left for romance. Even though date nights may not be a huge priority for us right now, we both feel secure in our marriages and know that our relationships remain strong. We also dive into the importance of human connection, inspired by the story of a young woman who rowed solo across the Atlantic, and the fascinating balance between independence and our need for companionship. Then things take a darker turn as we get into the psychology behind people who commit horrific acts, including murder, and how seemingly “normal” people can hide incredibly dark secrets. And, because we can never stay serious for too long, we wrap things up with one of our favourite frustrations: expensive restaurant meals and the absolute expectation that there better be free bread.
