From the whiskey fueled moment Ruthie Lindsey and Jedidiah Jenkins met each other, it was ON. They knew they'd found their person. Who cares if they didn't want to kiss each other! These BFFs are well known around the internets for their zest for life AND each other. They are also some of the kindest, smartest, most hilarious and illuminating people i've ever met.

Every couple has to find their own way to communicate. and Sometimes they even come up with their own language. For Chatti and TJ that way was writing letters. And it got them through some really hard times, including the deaths of both TJ's parents, and points in their 5 year marriage when they both wanted to leave.

In this week's episode we finish the second installment of June and Jed's love story. June drops some serious wisdom about how and why an unconventional relationship like theirs is a beautiful bubble of warmth. She also reminds us there are no benefits to being anything other than yourself. You're gonna want to listen to this heartwarming conclusion.

June and Jed knew they wanted a love that would last so when they found each other they grabbed on tight(ish) and decided together they wouldn't let go. Still, the way this all happened and the way their marriage is now doesn't look like it does for most people. In part one of their story, we touch on many topics including:

Bold new starts and risk taking a la the Alchemist

Getting over ex loves/moving onto new loves

Marriages sustained by respect and adoration over passion

Do or die moments

Sometimes true love means letting go. Follow along with Sara's story as host, yan palmer takes you through the stages of what an "amicable divorce," done with love, kindness and grace looks like. sara's instagram: @saralazio website: www.lazioimages.com

***WARNING: there are about 2-3 swear words in this episode *** When it comes to relationships, I can't think of a more sensitive issue than infidelity. Here the real story of an affair from start to finish. Listen guys, we're not stupid. we know this is going to be a very hard episode to listen to. we know its going to piss a lot of people off. In fact, if you're already starting to feel your hackles raise, maybe skip this episode, and listen to a few of the others. Because This interview is meant not to rationalize infidelity, but to help us understand why it happens, and what it means about us as a culture, and us as human beings. If we don't look at it, how can we learn?
