Mark broadcasts live this morning from Lafayette, Louisiana! The 2 open the show with new survey results that reveal a lack of trust in 45% of marriages.
We start with an e-mail from a husband that wants to know if its better to stay in a broken marriage for the sake of the kids, or leave because it’s basically over. A woman e-mails about heavy ‘petting’ and wanting to date a former boyfriends brother. E-mails also ask about birth control, and a husband that works at home is using the excuse that he needs to ‘get out of the house’ to have lunch with other women.
