Clones, Potlucks & Kinks: The Dinner Table Debate with a New Yorker
About this episode
Lo and Greg Furman engage in a humorous debate about relationships, potlucks, and kink culture.
The world feels like a dumpster fire so we could all use some escapism and a good laugh. Lo welcomes back his bestie Greg Furman. He's a writer, director, producer and actor who quickly became a favorite of the lo lifers. He's a true renaissance man and one of the few people who can keep up with Lo’s quick wit. Greg represents the East Coast with his New York sensibilities while Lo proudly holds down Los Angeles, and the cultural clash makes for the kind of playful debate that listeners love. What starts as casual conversation quickly turns into a rapid-fire series of relatable questions: Do you sit next to your date or across from them? Are you a leftovers person or do they go straight in the trash? And perhaps most divisive of all, are potlucks charming community gatherings… or culinary chaos? Lo also shares his very specific rules about overnight stays at other people’s homes, including why he travels with his own sheets (a confession that sparks plenty of laughter and surprisingly strong opinions) The conversation takes an unexpected turn when the two dive into the film Pillion, starring Alexander Skarsgård, which explores the world of dominance, submission and kink culture…
