Description

In GBA 154 we get even better acquainted with my Dad. We talk about his experiences of non-monogamy, try and get into an untold war time love story and explore general issues around sex and sexuality.

WARNING: If you are related to us you may not want to listen to this episode.

This is the first episode of a 3 week "Personal Season". On Friday (4th) they'll be another conversation with my dad, this time about parenting and mortality. Then next week they'll be another conversation with my partner Jen that will be broken into 2 parts and come out on Wednesday (9th) and Friday (11), and then the week after that (16th) they'll be an episode that collects together true stories and personal songs that I've told and recorded over the last 2 years.
