#20 “Speaking Frankly: Non-monogamy”
Summary
CBS recently released a short documentary called “Speaking Frankly: Non-monogamy” available here. We’re non-monogamous, so we watched it! In this episode we break this documentary down, shed some tears, and question editing choices. We also objectify some titties and for that we are truly sorry. We hope to do better in the future.
This episode contains candid discussion of lack of rights for non-monogamous partnerships in marriage and the workplace and is very Virginia, US focused – for our non-Virginia, US listeners.
