They pivot from height-based hypotheticals to George Santos’ scandalous exit, framing his downfall as a rare political accountability win amid broader cynicism. [Automatically generated summary]

Unwieldy Archives

| The thing about the de Blasio Poly press release is that the New York Times, Poly Desk, prodigious. | |
| It's good. | |
| They are on the Poly beat, and they have been for a long time. | |
| This is, you think, like a DEI kind of thing? | |
| No, I just think that they cover it. | |
| They cover it well. | |
| It's a great subject. | |
| And the reason I know this is because in doing research for our episode, I spent some time in the old mines, the old cool mines, the old blogspot.com archives of polyinthemedia.blogspot.com. | |
| Pollyinthemedia.blogspot.com. | |
| That's kind of an unwieldy tight, unwieldy. | |
| I love that you're doing a little, we've got a little capital A actor. | |
| Really good. | |
| Oh, and you know what? | |
| I already sent this to you. | |
| Polyamory in the news by Alan M and coffee beans behind it. | |
| Wow, Polly is in the news a lot. | |
| They document all of it. | |
| Oh my God. | |
| And I got to say, some of these archives, they go back to like 2008. | |
| This is really good. | |
| So what did you learn? | |
| Not much. | |
| Welcome, welcome, welcome to New York City, the only city in the world where you can be the mayor and have two wives. | |
| Just kidding, that is permissible in some religions. | |
| My name, of course, the Alpha of the Pack. | |
| Woo, woo, woo, bisexual. | |
| I am married to both of my partners here. | |
| That's not true. | |
| The first of which is... | |
| No, we're not married. | |
| I'm Liz. | |
| Eliza and Sin, they call her. | |
| And of course, we are joined by our producer, but the thing he produces the most is sensuality, but also empathy, which I find to be two of the most important things in a bi wait. | |
| Yeah. | |

Can't Picture Us Cooking

|
| Sexual relationship. | |
| That is bicameral. | |
| I was going somewhere else with that, but you know, just like kind of trailed off. | |
| Young producer Young Chomsky in the podcast is called. | |
| It's called Druin on Hello. | |
| Hello. | |
| And we all live in one little studio apartment with no. | |
| That's in New Jersey, but also we have another location right here in New York City. | |
| So to get this out of the way, before we even start. | |
| Brace is bisexual. | |
| I am not bisexual. | |
| You might be. | |
| I might be. | |
| Have you tried? | |
| I haven't. | |
| No, but I've. | |
| But you don't know. | |
| Can you picture me, though, doing that? | |
| I don't picture you doing much of anything. | |
| I'm picturing me doing that right now. | |
| And it's just like, I just can't picture. | |
| Like, I can't picture me just like sort of like we're cooking something together and like, you know, I'm flipping the eggplants, not like the real eggplant. | |
| Wow, that's a slip. | |
| I'm flipping it. | |
| Nope, it's not. | |
| That's a slip. | |
| He's like a shirt off because the oil is getting all over him from the eggplant. | |
| And like, I just like bump into him and we sort of turn and we like look at each other. | |
| Of course, I'm 5'4. | |
| You're having a meet cute in your kitchen? | |
| Well, we've already met cute. | |
| Boyfriend? | |
| I'm gonna tell my boyfriend. | |
| And we sort of look at each other and I open my mouth and he opens his mouth and we kiss. | |
| I just can picture myself being like, I don't know. | |
| I don't know if you know how kissing works. | |
| I just, I don't know. | |
| You open your mouth, he opens his mouth and you sort of mush them together and one person thrusts their tongue really far into the other person's mouth as a display of dominance and sort of masculinity. | |
| I just can't picture myself doing that. | |
| Yeah. | |
| I like women because I'm taller than them usually. | |
| That's really, that's basically what I'm doing. | |
| You are statistically, yes, but that's we're going with the whole world at global average of heights here because I'm actually pretty normal in the global average. | |
| Before we get into the episode, I have something that I need to say. | |
| Oh, shit. | |
| What? | |
| It's about our man, George Santos, which is sort of related to what we're talking about today. | |
| Yeah, it's spiritually related. | |
| It's, I think, also just regular related stuff. | |
| Okay. | |
| So he's not going to run for re-election. | |
| I'm very sad about this. | |
| I guess he's getting, he might get like fully sanctioned. | |
| I don't know when this episode is going to come out, but by that time, maybe he will already have been whenever Congress censures him. | |
| Yeah. | |
