Show Notes

Getting divorced sucks. But getting divorced before you’re 30? Kind of chic. In this week’s episode, Alex and Jon talk about break ups, divorces, and dating married men. It’s all fun and games until he doesn’t leave his wife. But don’t worry! Alex and Jon are still happily married. They do talk about what they would do if they ever got divorced. Alex would be fine…but Jon? He can’t afford to lose Alex so he’s on his best behavior…for the rest of his life. Submit your questions here!⁠
