Pedestrian Polyamory is back, and we've brought friends. Gavin and Shira explain the lack of updates to the show, and almost promise to make that not happen anymore. Once we catch up with the Master Banters (trademark pending), Shira and The Transient (#boom) takes us on an interview with a real-life polyamorous quad. They explain how it works for them, and how they handle things when it doesn't work for them. This is a fun episode that features more humans than any other episode of Pedestrian Polyamory ever (weird thing to promote)!! So give it a listen, don't break hearts, and don't make expletives weird.
Gavin and Shira B. Katz return to rock the mic one more time, and it's time to get all sad 'n stuff.

Gavin and Shira try to keep things light and BANTER like they do, but (sh)it's gonna get weird. <3
Gavin and Shira are back again, after a long spell of not being able to share the same room let alone the same microphone they're back... with a vengeance! Gavin finally lets the Pedestrians know, exactly how did that date go? Shira talks about the personal issues that have been going on in the Katz house, as well as a preview to next weeks Depresissode. Then they once again open up the listener mail bag, and discuss the polyamorous issues of the Pedestri-nation. This episode has a wide range of issues discussed, both for the newly open as well as issues for those with a Black Belt in Polyamory (why the belt gotta be black??).
The Transient joins Shira B. Katz in this episode of Pedestrian Polyamory so that she can ramble about pheromones for an hour. (Gavin calls this making the New Kid pay his dues.) After the usual Pedestrian Affairs, Shira is off an talking about Pheromones. Do they exist in humans? What kind of pheromones are out there? Just what is a vomeronasal organ? Join Shira and The Transient as they enjoy a big bowl of I*e C***m and get nerdy.
It's Shira's turn to go solo on Pedestrian Polyamory. Shira is back from Burning Man and won't shut up about it, even though she promised to! Hear Shira talk about her transformation between her first burn and her second and why Burning Man is responsible for Pedestrian Polyamory being a show at all. Shira also talks about.. Burning Man! And hypothetical druggy situat-i-ons, orgy domes, Tu-Tu Rapey Tuesday, and commitment ceremonies. Then she talks about... Shira! Hear about why Shira feels like a weirdo, all about her relationships, and listen to her answer a few listener questions while she's at it.
Pedestrian Polyamory is back, but this time with a twist. Shira is off to Burning Man leaving Gavin alone to speak on whatever his heart desires. Gavin lets the listeners in on some of the behind the scenes of Pedestrian Polyamory, shares a deeply personal experience that has to be heard, and his thoughts on his polarizing personality. He also, reveals what the future has in store for Gavin Katz.

Gavin is taking the reigns once again, and this time he is putting Shira through her worst nightmare: conversations about Jealousy.

Gavin then leads us through the topic of jealousy, what it is, what it means, how to deal, and the best cleaning solutions to get the shit off your floor. Shira meanwhile kicks and pouts as she usually does when things get Postulant, but she does it in her usual adorable sassy way. Will Gavin be able to steer this ship? Will Shira call a mutiny and take over half way through the show? Listen and find out? I mean, listen and find out!
Shira B goes to the San Francisco Pride Parade and regales you with tales of terror in the streets of San Francisco. Pissing, shitting, and domestic violence, oh my.

The mailbox is packed and it's stacked ('specially in the back). D Barry wanted to thank a lover for mail like that. Can S Barry get some love with that shake-shake boobie?
