"I'm definitely not a lawyer, but even if I were, you'd give better legal advice than me" - a line I edited out, but Ken did say. Just so you all know. Even his ego has limits. He's only a fake doctor.
In today's episode, we examine legal progress made by polyamorous people and relationships in the USA, and how hypothetical additional progress might work out. Content Warning: There's a little language because Ken struggles with not using blue language and I don't mind it, in appropriate context.
We examine the possibilities of how to get to a national standard of more than two person domestic partnership or marriage and why there's a difference between those (and Ken's rant about marriage being an outdated institution that should be abolished is can't-miss! and my eye roll at his being married to not one but two people despite this is AUDIBLE), and have some laughs along the way. I hope you enjoy it. See you next week for the last of this season before a short break between seasons 2 and 3.

It’s clear that having a reliable attorney can make a huge difference when navigating difficult situations. One thing I always look for when researching attorneys is a good website that clearly outlines their services and areas of expertise. A well-organized website can help you get a sense of their approach and whether they have experience with high-conflict cases. It’s a small step, but it helps narrow down your options and find the right fit for your needs.
It’s always interesting to think through different legal scenarios and what you’d do in those situations. One that stood out to me is how important it is to know your legal options, especially when dealing with serious cases like wrongful death. If you ever find yourself in such a tragic situation, a skilled St. Louis wrongful death lawyer can guide you through the complexities and ensure you’re pursuing the right steps. Legal hypotheticals are one thing, but real-life legal help is essential when stakes are high.
