Poor Alec Baldwin. He must feel so terrible now that his wife was accidentally shot and killed at work. Wait — This week, we dive deep into Listener Feedback, including some Bad Dating Advice, and Missy explores some unusual statutory-rape-age Mormon sex practices courtesy of everyone's fan favorite, TikTok.  Penny for your Thoughts?Full disclosure: there is no penny.

It’s T-minus She Podcasts Live, kids, and Mercury Retrograde is in full effect. This is the conference we've been looking forward to for TWO (count em!) plus covid years, and we're not missing it now. So as Amy and Melissa scramble the jets to fly three-quarters of the way across the country for a weeklong commune in the desert with their fellow podcasting elites, we thought we'd share one of our Top 10 Fan Favorite episodes while we're away form our mics. Don't fret — we'll be back in action long before Thursday with a host of crazy stories, wildly inappropriate tattoos and hopefully a brand new sponsor or two. All that, and possibly some legally procured marijuana gummies should the mood strike us. (God bless you, Arizona.)   Like what you hear?
