The Rough Stuff gang invites Adam Ganser to share his awkward stories from days past. As a bonus, Adam and Sarah unwittingly foster a therapy session for Bridgett. The gang discusses how effective, or ineffective, rather, the sexual education of their formative years were. In any case, be assured that Sarah’s mother will text her once she listens to this episode.

This was an absolutely excellent episode.

It's funny, my first threesome I was more worried about my ability to like... satisfy two people at once than the moral ramifications even tho one of the people was the person who introduced me to my church. Being bi makes it easier cause you come to realize you're not the center of the show, just a cog in the machine.

Maybe it's as a socially anxious dude, but I fully am aware of everyone around me for like entirely within any visible area whether it's behind me or in front of me. I know which directions to bolt and shit if I feel pressure rising.

With my kid I tell him all my fuckups, and what I learned from it. Humanizing myself so he's not having me lecturing me, but me telling him how I came to my conclusion helps. I think it helps a lot to have a trust based relationship where you're like "here, I'm giving you the advice and story so you can take the pieces that are useful to you"

When I need to like super feel Ill go through all of The Good Place. It helps a lot to connect to something and run the gambit of emotion to get there. I've found just finding the connection to something beyond sadness, to find joy and experience sadness that comes through that connection is super healthy.

When I hit my growth spurt and my bullies were nice to me and I was like "man, they really grew up this summer".... then someone else tried to fuck with me and I absolutely destroyed them to the point where I got suspended and they got nothing despite having attacked me in front of a teacher (literally pushing me over a desk and tried to come at me)... I was like "oh... they didn't change, they're just cowards". It was definitely easier to be my sweet self when no one wanted to pick on me.

Yeah as a tall dude I spent my early twenties not realizing some people were terrified of me, which was weird cause like... I was very sweet to people just wanting to make them comfortable. I also stay pretty built to fight bp issues so I had a friend one day take me aside and was like "you can't stand so close to people, I know you just wanna be able to hear them in the club and stuff, but they think you're trying to intimidate them when you lean over them." That and learning who did and didn't like my hugs and why was an interesting experience.
