We made it! 2020 is in the books, and as a community, Diapers & Doghouses has crossed the finish line of an overall terrible year. Or was it? We discuss our year-end recap in our personal lives and the life of our podcast.

The 5th and final love language presented in the book by Dr. Gary Chapman is Physical Touch. If this is your love language then a back rub goes a lot further than an "I Love You". We talk about ways to meet your spouse's needs including sexual desires. We also answer questions from the audience and tell you what we learned about dinner etiquette, growing up without political and religious influences, and much much more.

Who doesn't love receiving gifts? Some prefer giving more than receiving. Whether giving or getting, that trip, that rose, that letter, its the thought the counts. What about the gift of SELF? We didn't receive any questions (what's up with that?) so we dove into the flack that Jeannie Mai received for saying that she is willing to submit to her husband. Listen to YBA quote scripture like the Apostle Paul. Thanks for listening! Go download the "Good Pods" app on your phone to discover what your friends are listening to in the podcast world.
