Rule 069 | An Irish Goodbye Is The Best Way To Leave A Party

Marriage Is Funny

The Peppers begin to realize that one of them is a party animal and the other one usually tries to sneak out early with an Irish Goodbye. Jessie tries to explain her fitness-overdose to Gerard, but she ends up feeling both physically and emotionally tender. (So, of course this means we're talking about it.)

QUICK BITES:

Gerard brings up a new social trend that he’s noticed lately, and Jessie defends herself against an accusation of ghosting.

Jessie tried to make a case for skipping Gerard’s company Christmas party this year, but the allure of getting dressed up got her out of the house.

Our annual 12-hour party is right around the corner and you can hear about the backstory of all things epiphany back in Episode 21.

Some couples have a safe word in the bedroom, but we are instituting a safe word for various preferences within social settings.

Tone it Up is the at-home workout program that has whipped Jessie’s butt into shape over the past several months.

The Peppers recently purged their closets (episode 65) and had somewhat surprisingly different reactions to trying on all of their clothes.

Gerard has a hard time understanding Jessie’s deep seated body insecurities. We talked about bikinis back in episode 7, but Jessie still puts a lot of stock in how Gerard sees her outward appearance.

The Pepper Dress that Jessie launched earlier this year was born from the desire to wear something that makes her feel beautiful despite the bloat.

Letting your most shameful bits show can bring a ton of healing if it’s done correctly. A particular instagram post by Jen Gotch provided a ton of inspiration for Jessie this week.

Jessie is sick of standing in front of the mirror alone, so she’s starting a new podcast instead of a support group. Stay tuned here.

Jessie’s chronic pain (episode 33) can be confusing when it comes to feeling healthy vs. looking healthy, but she's trying to be better about discerning between the two.
