Episode Notes

S1:E14 – MANSPLAINING, KNEE TOUCHING, PIZZA AND BONER CITY: CARLA AND DELIA REVIEW – THE 5 LOVE LANGUAGES In the season finale, your hosts Carla and Delia wax poetical about a season of ups and downs and sideways and diagonal ways. Delia chats about her homes away from home and how furniture assembly is going (she fought the Tarva and she won!) and how once everything is unpacked she may never leave the house. Carla goes on a date this week with a gentleman caller who reached out via the Facebook. She fancied herself in a French film standing next to her car watching her date walk in slow motion towards her. There was nothing French about those shrimp tacos though! (to die for.) And without further ado, the ladies dive into the final book of the season, “The 5 Love Languages: The Secret to Love that Lasts” by Gary Chapman. Carla is impressed by the qualifications of this week’s author Dr. Gary Chapman and having sold 11 million copies of this book and translated into 49 languages is nothing to sneeze at. Even though the book is geared toward people in relationships, Delia took the singles quiz and both Carla and Delia were a little disappointed that their love languages were left off the list (pizza and cake with intercourse respectively). The thirty questions reminded Delia of time spent in the optometrist chair during an eye exam. The gals share the results of their love language tests with no big surprises for either of them. Carla was not entirely thrilled about the authors southern accent, it made her recoil. While Carla is adamant that the theory outlined in the book is worth the religious bent and the occasional mansplaining and condescending tone. Because communication y’all! The book is also geared toward heterosexual people in a relationship. Carla shares some of the exercises that are at the end of each chapter. Quality time at a Chuck E. Cheese being creeped out by animatronics, DIY gifts that include (but are not limited to) a whittled gun cabinet and cat bowties, physical touch that actually warrants a high five (Delia is ecstatic!) and the roundabout way to initiate sex that Delia will NEVER EVER try. The girls take a fond look back on what they’ve learned this season from the variety of books and if they accomplished what they set out to accomplish.
