Jessica and Butch tackle the topic that is at the top of everyone's mind: the extinction of the human species, and our responsibility (or lack thereof) towards preventing it. It's not that we don't CARE about what is happening on Pennsylvania Avenue... it's just that at this point, we're sort of over it. Instead we talk about Jessica's Rule (as expressed with a twist by Butch): "Embrace the Sacred Feminine and Stop Saving the World"... in other words, stop being "that guy" who tries to solve all the world's problems, and just... wait, listen... It'll likely work itself out.
Jessica references a book called the Red Tent:

Butch mentions a book that he couldn't remember the title to about the "tension"(The Enduring Tension, by Donald Devine) :
