How do you set boundaries with difficult parents? A question about letting go of what you didn't get in childhood reveals something sweet about Mandy and Gideon's own relationship.

This episode is for the theatre nerds and anyone who has ever wondered how to navigate bodily functions in a new relationship. So, everyone. Plus, a moving segment on being your own cheerleader.

Does a good relationship require more than just love? Can you be happy without romantic love? And if Gideon loved a robot, would Kathryn mind? Some Valentine's Day questions about eros (and philia, and pragma, and philautia…).

We're joined by a special guest - comedian, director, dad W. Kamau Bell! We talk about parenting during this difficult time in our country. Plus, Gideon attempts to pry an old family secret from Kathryn.

How to deal with a know-it-all, the truth about American toileting, and a call from Lori about unlocking her heart (ice cream helps). Plus, Mandy gets emotional sharing a breakthrough with son Gideon.

For the first time in DLTU history, Gideon shows his face! Also: family apologies, Kathryn's advice to her younger self and why Mandy doesn't own a tie.

Why are people so rude - or are they? A theatre legend calls in to explain why choosing a life in the arts isn't crazy. Also: pet peeves (celery) and Mandy's anxiety about working with Elmo.

New year, same pressure to reinvent yourself. Are resolutions too much? A listener's note on bears and bad advice gets the broadway treatment. Oh, and Mandy and Kathryn get tested on Gen Z slang. Who slays?
