Scott Debates Scott: Can Love & Commitment Survive Radical Freedom?

Can a relationship thrive without rules? Or does lasting love require some limits? In this candid and thought-provoking episode, Scott sits down with one of his personal training clients (also named Scott) for a deep dive into one of the most uncomfortable questions in modern relationship philosophy: Are some imposed boundaries necessary to preserve long-term commitment? Centering mostly around Wild Love Theory’s radical premise—that maximal happiness requires maximal freedom—the conversation challenges traditional ideas about relational doubt, how much freedom is too much and staying together “no matter what.” Together, they explore: • How much relational freedom is optimal • If boundary-free love is liberating or potentially reckless • How cultural norms about divorce shape our definitions of commitment • The emotional trade-offs between safety and sovereignty • Why ENM spaces often avoid talking about relational maintenance Whether you’re in a long-term monogamous marriage or navigating ethical non-monogamy, this episode asks the question most couples never dare say aloud: Can you be truly free—and still choose to stay?

I Don’t Know What I Want (And Neither Do You) - Desire, Doubt & Discovery in Non-Monogamy and Real Life

Why is it so damn hard to know what we really want? In this vulnerable and unfiltered episode, April and Scott get real about the psychological and emotional roadblocks that make naming our desires feel confusing, overwhelming, and even scary—especially in non-monogamy. They explore: • Why childhood and culture train us to want what’s safe—not what’s true • The difference between relief and real desire • Why pretending to “want what they want” can quietly destroy you • How non-monogamy doesn’t make desire clearer—it just makes it louder • The 3 most common mistakes people make when trying to name what they want • Practical tools to help you reconnect to your real, wild, messy desires Plus, they share personal stories, relationship bumps, and how desire work is showing up in their own marriage, right now. This one’s for anyone who’s ever said, “I don’t know who I am anymore” or “I’m not sure what I want—but I know it’s not this.”

Rage, Hormones, And Vaginal Dryness: The Real Talk You've Never Heard About Menopause.
