Long distance relationships are getting expensive, and apparently the solution is just moving in together now. Marcus also shares the hilarious message his daughter had for Producer Taylor, and we help a listener in today’s DM Dilemma who feels stuck and wants advice on how to finally get where they want to be in life. Somehow this episode is equal parts relationship math, emotional support,...

We’re exposing ourselves a little… what are some basic facts we learned WAY too late in life?
