Start at Episode 1 → https://daddy-tissues.captivate.fm/episode/im-fcking-doing-this 🎬 Watch this episode on YouTube → https://youtu.be/G9jYxT2HebQ If you want to give your daughters some kick-ass birth control, park them in a comfy chair with a blanket and tell them my story. But that's coming. Today is about the feeling that says "I want to fuck his face off" — otherwise known as chemistry. You read every book. You went to therapy. You drank the Kool-Aid and carried around the giant embarrassing water bottle. And then he walks in with the right eyes and the right chaos, and it's like morphine-acid-kryptonite-crack straight into your veins. So what IS that? Love at first sight — or your childhood trauma being pushed through your bloodstream by the little mad scientist I lovingly call Mr. Trauma? This one's about the most inconvenient truth in dating after divorce: danger feels incredible, butterflies might be a warning, and the high we chase is sometimes just a starved nervous system finally getting fed. But it's not a lecture about settling for the beige-wall guy. It's the real question: can love be electric AND safe? Grab your daddy tissues.

If you want to give your daughters some kick-ass birth control, park them in a comfy chair with a blanket and tell them my story. But that's coming. Today is about the feeling that says "I want to fuck his face off" — otherwise known as chemistry.

You read every book. You went to therapy. You drank the Kool-Aid and carried around the giant embarrassing water bottle. And then he walks in with the right eyes and the right chaos, and it's like morphine-acid-kryptonite-crack straight into your veins. So what IS that? Love at first sight — or your childhood trauma being pushed through your bloodstream by the little mad scientist I lovingly call Mr. Trauma?

This one's about the most inconvenient truth in dating after divorce: danger feels incredible, butterflies might be a warning, and the high we chase is sometimes just a starved nervous system finally getting fed. But it's not a lecture about settling for the beige-wall guy. It's the real question: can love be electric AND safe?
