Drew: To sum it up: I don't care. If people like it, I'm happy for them. If they decide they need help stopping, I can help.

edit: removed placehold with actual answer.

Tyler here. I was a bit surprised too. I mentioned that he was a sex advice columnist, host of the "savage love" podcast and one of the founders of the "it gets better" project. He genuinely seemed unaware of who Dan Savage is.

Tyler here. I screened calls for two years on the show. We prefer outrageous calls - makes the screener's job way easier! A DP call will always beat out a question about "the pill."

We do much more weeding out of overly medical, boring, or clearly fake calls. The only way we wouldn't take an "outrageous" call is if it had to do with a murder or some other heinous/illegal act.
