Our First Kiss | Good Children S4E3: It's May, Let's Be Therapists Again

[@briannapulido3173]

10 min in and I’m astonished at not only w Joes accents but Andrew’s ability to convince me he is capable of landing any job without experience 😂

[@GoodChildrenPod]

that's how andrew ended up working on wall street

[@katiewalters3040]

The conversation around touch was so healing to hear. Thanks for your vulnerability as always, it makes many of us feels seen. you guys rock xoxo

[@GoodChildrenPod]

[@avacake6600]

The way I’ve never heard anybody talk about this. Healing everybody !

[@Crashlee11]

Joe your improv and your accents are so good 😭 the fact that you weren’t a theater kid is just a travesty.

[@GoodChildrenPod]

ty😭😭

[@maryrwilliams7385]

watching your podcast over the past year has literally helped me as a 25 y/o lesbian in so many ways. I feel like i actually share community with you through all these suuuper specific shared queer experiences that no one really talks about. Shame, identity, growth, acceptance. I feel like im growing into myself just as you guys are, working thru different issues and insecurities that are linked to growing up queer. I love your friendship and every Wednesday i my head I say " well thank god a new good children episode drops today " . it seriously helps me thru my week. And the patreon on Friday is a must. I just love u guys!

[@palom3037]

This podcast heals me in ways I cannot describe

[@GoodChildrenPod]

same

[@mckennabowerss]

As a straight woman I also experienced a lack of touch as a child. My parents never gave me hugs or kisses and as an adult it really stunted my confidence in a lot of aspects of my intimate life. I will say it’s gotten so much better! I am now a huge lover of touch and physical affection. I hope you can find that comfort too Andrew!! ❤❤

[@mscardina]

Inside of everyone there are 2 wolves. One of those wolves is Joe and one of those wolves is Andrew.

[@GoodChildrenPod]

and both are derranged

[@erint8550]

i think it’s so interesting hearing this side of the touch topic (not wanting to touch each other at all for fear of outing yourself) bc i feel like i experienced the opposite - i was so touchy feely with all of my girl friends that i was too afraid to come out for fear that the dynamic would change or they would see me differently. so wild how differently socialized we all are

[@laurenwilcox9485]

to preface this i usually never comment on videos, but this has become my comfort podcast, im making my way through listening to these episodes and the way you guys can have the funniest banter and talk through some deep rooted trauma is so refreshing and comforting. segment about touch really healed a piece of me and had me thinking about some of the things i went through growing up. thank you guys for being so genuine and honest in an era of inauthenticity online. really love you guys and this podcast ❤️

[@the.divinecloud]

The beginning of this is what got me hooked to this show and I’ve never been happier

[@Crashlee11]

Giving gazelle being hunted for sport 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭 And Andrew spinning it to a positive situation

[@GoodChildrenPod]

i need andrew's optimism so bad

[@sapphkay]

the earnest music when you guys are talking about the kiss 😭 joe you’ve done it again

[@GoodChildrenPod]

[@rhus36]

Call me a cancer sun & cancer moon but I love the feelings episodes. The layers of shame, discomfort, and pressure regarding touch are fascinating and I 100% relate. Personally having closer platonic physical contact with people I trust has made me more comfortable in my body. I also think having consistent, non-sexual physical intimacy with friends is helpful because you become more comfortable with touching in general so that when you’re in a sexual situation it’s not the first time in however long that you’ve been touched. Touch is so powerful, thanks for your great discussion!

[@lilliandolan8775]

Once again another podcast that touches on a topic i will be discussing with my therapist. I love how you both put relatable emotions /feelings into the words in ways I I cant express

[@katiewagner9209]

So I do believe that everyone on the earth needs to watch this episode

[@dustinh3927]

The conversation that started around 30 minutes in... is something I needed to hear badly since February. Tysm for a good therapy session

[@an_asteroid]

Going from laughing to dissecting trauma - love it lol. But thanks for these honest and authentic convos, they’re incredibly validating for me who also is unlearning body shame into my late 20’s. ❤

[@angelbb4165]

"we're not too keen on the homosexual agenda" "same" lmaooooooo

[@mrdegrassifreak]

You guys are so good at listening and expressing how you’re feeling. What you’ve felt on the topic of touch is exactly how I’ve felt throughout my life. You guys put it into words I couldn’t explain. Thank you and now I’m gonna hug/cry to my best friend.

[@laurelmontesi5726]

yall quite literally read my mind with this one like exactly how i grew up and my thought process now wow okay i love yall sm

[@tayyibahkhan1585]

[@MrTedkesner]

[@MrTedkesner]

@@GoodChildrenPod I worked at WeHo Target and it was the most star studded 💩job I ever had. JoJo, NasX, Paris Jackson. Angelina Jolie.

[@KristenNicole]

Andrew is straight yappin today and I am so here for it

[@MiaVanAllen]

I’m literally so obsessed with you too and this pod it’s amazing. I will say I think part of the reason is because you guys take the time to listen and respond to one another and don’t interrupt each other. It’s so nice to listen too :) love y’all

[@joshuad599]

27:01 . Y’all really clocked my tea.

[@thewholenesshome]

New listener but must say, it is so wonderful to see how engaged you two are in your conversations with each other with very real things it’s inspiring 💛

[@ChadBloom95]

The beginning of this episode was absolutely hilarious 😂

[@ToddLamming]

It's funny listening to this and thinking about how I grew up with no openly gay people around me, or even the presence of someone who I might have subconsciously known was queer. And then, my sexuality blossomed. I went hard into throwing my body to people I didn't even find that attractive, but thought the act was enough. The minute I moved to London when I was 21, touch was the language and communication between friends and the queer community in groups and normal everyday situations. But without the strings of sexual intent involved, just a way to show love and welcome to one another. But just showing each other we are in a safe space where touch can be explored with each other was such a revelation that I think is so unique in the queer community.

[@karinavenegas2475]

Officially caught up !!! And loved every single episode! Can’t wait for more!!!

[@daniellemarie13333]

“Put him in a floor length skirt” repeated for emphasis KILLLEDD ME

[@kelsib7821]

wow you guys are amazing, this conversation around fatty bodies and touch healed me

[@megsnbaconn]

Omg loving this boat metaphor so much, more people need to hear this!

[@zuhasyunjin]

season 4!!!! Proud of y’all!

[@MetroDerg]

This was a really nice conversation to hear. Im a fat guy who grew up a fat insecure catholic kid and I am in a very loving and committed relationship, and the physical repulsion i still experience form unexpected touch from my favorite man in the world is so involuntary, I'm glad this is something others experience and I hope i can recover from my past, thanks you guys

[@Greg1217]

Was ready for Joe to say Savannah is a beautiful name for a baby girl.

[@Greg1217]

Commenting again because I’m almost done with the episode and it’s hitting so hard I feel so validated and seen 😭😅

[@DowntownDiva]

The comfort/hug conversation gat me gal.

[@TheCollectorsChaos]

Kinda similar, growing up during my "awkward stage", I literally HATED looking at my face, I would avoid mirrors, I would avoid cameras and looking at myself in pictures.. I'm so glad I got out of that omg. I needed the openness topic and the "Relationship/Boat" analogy so bad, you don't even know.

[@jorgesantillan428]

Random but hearing Andrew and Joe drool over quesa-birria tacos made me feel like a proud Mexican momma

[@jaredleemease]

Everyone deserves a good life, even you Joe and even you Andrew. I think affection and touch is the most amazing part of being with someone. Take your best case scenario in your mind and in your heart, draw that line film in your mind and never look back. 😎

[@laurenkitchen9192]

lmao not yall picking lafayette louisiana for ur role play and that’s where im from😭😭😭😭!!!!!!

[@lilliandolan8775]

painfully relatible and incredibly funny

[@reececroft3491]

lol @ Joe’s face journey here 10:52

[@CampbellColeman-y8y]

I would trust you all with my life 😂😂

[@miablanchard4277]

45 seconds in and i’m crying laughing

[@nataliezilinski433]

Joe thought he was asexual - growing up I always thought I was that as well cause I felt undesirable and wasn't getting desired by others. It wasn't until that I was comfortable in myself and found the person that was for me. Learned that your experience with intimacy doesn't have to be like everyone else's, you will find your path when life wants to show you the path. I love listening to you guys everyday. ❤ Thank you.

[@anabelhadad9715]

Getting vulnerable.. when I came out to my close friends they almost didn’t believe me cause they were also queer but super touchy and I didn’t want any part of it and I really thought something was wrong with me or I wasn’t queer enough because I didn’t want to be like that with my friends

[@PinkSilkSuit]

The boat 🥲💖

[@resilientform2005]

This is such an interesting topic

[@Cierraoday]

Andrew needs to teach a course on pitching yourself.

[@rashaunadams2591]

2 sides of the fat person coin: avoiding all touch bc you’re uncomfortable w your body, or becoming known as a “good hugger” simply bc you’re bigger than any person you’re embracing

[@GoodChildrenPod]

omg the "looks like they would give great hugs" thing is INFURIATING

[@verkanntoderverwunschen]

okay you tricked me into journaling also -strikethrough- is a thing? 🗝️👽 but with that animal crossing animation of shoveling against solid rock. oh it's a misty morning 🐦‍⬛
