Thanks to all our listeners who responded on Twitter and Facebook to complete this sentence! My favorite responses:

J and A ask about the hotwife lifestyle with two questions: did other poly folks find poly through hotwife? And men with a hot wife kink often get off learning intimate details or watching their partner play. From listening to past episodes, we can’t determine if this is uncommon or just rarely discussed in poly circles? (Answer: it’s always discussed whether you want to watch and how much you want to know about sexual activities)
Olaf asks about pre-poly signals—has anyone noticed poly tendencies in retrospect?

At the Canadian border on the way to the Vancouver GRUE, our bus stopped for customs. The agent asked the typical questions, including where I was going and why I was going there.
Me: For a conference. Or actually, an unconference.
Agent: An unconference? What is that?
Me: The attendees determine and create all the content.
Agent: What’s it about?
Me: Rope bondage.
Agent: I don’t know what that is.
Me: [shrug]
Agent: Business or personal?
Me: Personal.
Agent: And what is your business?
Not a blink, not a pause. Sometimes, telling the truth is easy and won’t lead anyone to batting an eye. ROFL!
