This is perhaps the episode we've prepared the most for yet. We even got chatGPT to give us talking points, and we were going to talk about important relationship things like building self-confidence and navigating the dating world after a breakup or divorce.  But instead -- for reasons beyond our comprehension -- we mostly ended up reminiscing about our past romantic relationships. Although along the way, one Al did manage to share his framework for doing audits in relationships, and the other Al explains what going on dates in a long term relationship feels like.  Things we discussed:  Good conversations have lots of doorknobs  How to talk to people about things  Dan Savage on Polyamory, Chosen Family and Better Sex  - - -  Al Ibrahim can be found at madebyal.net, and Al Siew writes at alsiew.com.
