After more than enough time of the iTunes charts, Marry Me is back for a very special check in. How are we all feeling about marriage now that we've grown separate from the show for two years?  Do you want Marry Me to come back and dish out marriage advice for life? We need fresh questions, questions that specifically relate to marriage and NOT throwing a wedding. Please send them in to MarryMe.Annual@gmail.com or by contacting us through our Facebook page.

Marry Me

Two (and a half) Years Later

After a long hiatus the gang finally returns with a new face (Connor Gwin) and a special guest (Emily Perper) to break down the idea of dowrys and whether or not they're as great as they seem to be.

29 - The Anti-Dowry

Following a long summer hiatus Marry Me is back with their first ever live episode! Over the past year, Kevin, Cullen and Susan have discussed camp on numerous occasions making this a fitting return live from Shrine Mont Art Camp. During the day Kevin and Cullen fielded questions from campers and then put on a live show for that night's evening program. In the absence of Susan Daughtry, the two were joined by Episcopalian Bishop Susan Goff. Questions answered include: Why did they choose marriage? How do you actually get married? Why can you object at a wedding? Can you fart at a wedding? Can you say no to a proposal? and How do you kiss someone? Camper names have been changed to protect the innocent (Thanks to James Robin Adams for providing the phony names) Check out Save The Arcadian (the band behind our wonderful theme music) Support The Annual, get a Subscription!

Ep. 24 - Combating Relationship Burnout

Back from spring break, Cullen, Kevin and Susan are reunited! The kid talk is done (for the time being) which means they can focus aspects of marriage and LTRs that affect everyone, all while decreasing the odds that Kevin will slip up and say they're going to "talk about having sex with kids" again. This week, the gang tackles Self Care. What does it mean and how do you do it? What makes self care so important when already have another person attached to your life, shouldn't they be your care?

In this week's episode Cullen and Kevin are joined (once again) by Cullen's older brother Connor, a public school teacher with an expansive knowledge in the world of how schools handle sex ed curriculum and to help fill the void left in Susan's absence Andrew and Emily step up to the plates. The five discuss how to talk to kids about sex from the perspective of an actual parent which leads to a discussion on discussing gender identities, losing virginity, and masturbation. Is a discussion about discussions that are a must listen for any parent, which these five certainly are not.

Ep. 18 - Television Revisited

In this week's Marry Me, Cullen, Kevin and Susan get back into the question game and discuss whether weddings have changed from quaint ceremonies about love to elaborate made for television productions. All of this boils down to nothing more than Cullen and Kevin planning their wedding to each other, but it helps... somehow. EDITORS NOTE: During the first ten minutes of this episode there is an odd clicking sound, it doesn't come from any specific podcaster, I believe this was an internal sound of my computer slowly killing itself, as it attempted to do just that part way through the recording. Sometimes the clicking the prevalent, sometimes it goes away all together, I did what I could to remove it when possible. Also, around 24 minutes in, Cullen has a coughing fit, this is entirely his fault. Check out Save The Arcadian (the band behind our wonderful theme music) Support The Annual, get a Subscription!
