If you haven’t listened to the first episode of the season where I interview her for the first time, go back and listen now. In our conversation, Mariah updates us about coming out to her family as polyamorous. We talk about her experience falling in love with her secondary partner and eventually breaking up with her primary.

Mariah and I talk to Mr. K, someone who tried polyamory and realized that it's not be for him. In this conversation we talk about his non-monogamous inclinations and his kitchen table poly aspirations. He tells us how he realized his ideal didn't match up to reality after being in the poly scene for five years. We also talk about how despite that, he considers himself as someone with a lot of poly characteristics such as barely experiencing jealousy and wanting to connect with metamours.
