Episode 02: Holding a Stranger's Hand
05:30 - I haven’t been able to fly for about four years now due to a bad flight through a thunderstorm. It increased in anxiety over flying resulting panic attacks before trips even walking off of a plane because my anxiety got so bad.

Episode 03: My Walnut is a Temple
06:30 - Travis reads Cosmo - A guy’s prostate, the walnut sized gland under his bladder, is the ultimate magic button to push if you want to blow his mind in bed. Partway through oral sex or intercourse rest two fingers against the swath of skin between his testicles and anus.

13:02 - Hey guys, just wondering what the word ‘cute’ means? I hear women use the word in conversation all the time and I’m more and more confused by its true meaning given its multitude of uses.

14:11 - My friend doesn’t seem to grasp the point of the “Would You Rather?” game. He poses questions such as “Would you rather be able to jump over tall buildings or have the ability to hear babies crying anywhere on the planet?” or “Would you rather be on fire or not be on fire?” How can I teach him the proper way to play or is he a lost cause? -- Adam from Gmail

16:21 - What is the best way to approach people who are almost your acquaintances but not quite? Like, you’ve talked to them a couple of times but you barely know their names. Sadly, most of my relationships with people are like that.

17:49 - When is the right time to move out? I’m twenty years old now, 21 on the Monday this podcast comes out. The commute of one hour total a day to school. I will be done with school soon but hope to be taking a follow up online course that will last around 18 months. If you could lay out some sort of time-table on when it’s appropriate to depart the nest I'd much oblige. I don’t have much money right now but I do live in Canada where hugs are currency. Thanks in advance, Jordan.

Episode 05: Mega-Jessup
18:44 - My seven year old and I spend a lot of time in the car listening to music while commuting across town to her school or mother’s house. She has really impressive tastes so far, and claims They Might Be Giants, Ben Folds, Tally Hall, No Doubt, Reel Big Fish, and The Presidents as her favorites. I’d like to expose her to more artists and songs that I consider insightful and enjoyable, but they use more profanity. At what point is it okay to say, ‘Fuck it’ and let your kid listen to whatever they want? - Tommy Red

19:48 - Y - "Which do you prefer: Joseph, Josep, Jessup, Jessop, or Jesse? nickname: Joe, Jess, or Jessie?"

20:30 - So I'm accompanying my wife to visit her parents in the coming weeks and while the visit is usually rather painless, the bed we are relegated to is very noisy.

Episode 06: Time Travel President
23:14 - Peeing in the shower: yay or nay? -- Magic Incest

25:32 - Y "Will there be a Presidential election in 2012? Recently, the buzz about not having elections in 2012 has gained a lot of momentum. It seems to stem from several of Obama's initiatives and other legislation being introduced that gives Obama some frightening powers. For example, cyber legislation gives Obama sole power to shut down the internet; legislation was introduced to remove presidential term limits (repeal of the 22nd amendment); and the controversial 16,000 armed IRS agents. On radio and tv, I have heard several comments about the possibility that we will NOT have presidential elections in 2012. When guests to the various shows mention the elections and possible turnovers in 2012, several hosts have remarked, '...if we have elections in 2012'. Your thoughts? What other events and legislation would give you concern about whether or not the 2012 elections will be cancelled and if tried, what will the public reaction be?"

27:45 - Y - From Yahoo Answers user Raq, who asks: "Hey need a film! no anythn like the lakehouse or that sort? desp for somthn dif to watch... nythn for a 15 yr girl?"

Episode 07: Bill and Ted's Most Tender Engagement
35:43 - Y "Which is a better name for a character? I’m torn between Jayden and Jacob. Either way, his name is shortened to Jay. My character is 15 years-old and is growing up in England. He comes from a middle class background yet smokes weed, is a teenage Casanova and basically a rebel without a cause. Which name would suit him better and why? The only reason I didn’t go for Jacob (my first choice) was because of the werewolf character in the Twilight series. My book is NOTHING like Twilight."

36:35 - I’ve taken a real shine to a girl I know, and after thinking about whether I have a chance with her or not, feeling inspired by your advice on the show, I’ve decided to give it a go. After some friendly banter she asked if I was doing anything later and we soon arranged to meet later in the evening. Thing is, I’m not 100% certain this is a date. Don’t get me wrong, by all accounts this seems like one when you read it back, indeed. But this is one of those girls that has a naturally flirtatious demeanour, meaning it could just be a friendly meet-up. Here comes the real problem: I’d prefer to keep this meeting on the down-low until I can ascertain the truth of the matter, and not have it announced to our social circle that I’m trying to court this girl. – Max

37:02 - Y - From Yahoo Answers user Simmons, who asks: ""

Episode 08: Steak-O
41:08 - Last night I went to my friend's 21st birthday party, where suddenly his girlfriend (who was very drunk) told me she had feelings for me. I don't feel the same about her. So, my question is how do I (or even do I) tell my friend?

42:18 - I'm a 17-year-old New Zealander, and over here any showing of anger to anyone will often result in a physical fight. I have the problem that I seem to either bottle it up (I've been meditating lately and it seems to help a little in thinking about things) or completely fly off the handle and hurt people badly. I was wonder if you guys could help.

42:58 - Y - Sent in by Action Alan, from Yahoo Answers user Kyle S, who asks:"I need a list of the most practical kicks.? I want a list of kicks (all must be practical), and where they would land So far (the obvious ones) Front kick to groin/mid area/ head. Side kick to groin/mid area. (I personally don't like this one cuz it's hard to see) Round kick to lower leg/back of knee. All suggestions are welcome."

Episode 09: A Tight Rectangular Chassis
45:58 - I use the bus a lot, and I thought I could use that time to practice my less-than-stellar social skills. How can I start a conversation with people without coming off as creepy or annoying? I'd love to meet some new people to hang out with.

46:42 - Y - From Dakota's Mommy, who asks: "Help me name my mobile spray tanning business! any suggestions would be appreciated.? it is a spray tan business where I travel to your home.

51:32 - Y - From Yahoo Answers user Charlie, who asks: "Christians: if we discover aliens, should we share the gospel with them? does jesus love aliens too?"

53:13 - Hey guys. So this last year I had my own apartment and it was where my friends and I would hang out basically all the time because it was centrally located between all of us and b) the lack of parents ('rents, if you prefer) was nice as well. But because of grades and money I'm moving back home with my parents in August. It's putting me closer to some of my friends, but putting me almost 20-30 minutes away from some others. I just worry our group of friends is going to fall apart without that central place to hang out. What can I and my friends as a group do to make sure this doesn't happen? - Ian

Episode 11: The Lesbian Apocalypse
53:47 - ...I really don't want to be labeled as some kind of pervert. If you guys have an easier way to tell the approximate age of a girl without simply walking up to her like a creeper and just flat-out asking it would be much appreciated.
