In this bathroom, love is always in the air. But today's episode of Separate Bathrooms may make you rethink the L word. Cam and Ali are sitting down with a couple the Sydney Morning Herald once dubbed ‘experts in unconditional love,’ CEO and Pastor of Wayside Chapel, Jon Owen, and his wife, Lisa Owen. Jon and Lisa share how they've lived out their radical approach to love, opening up their family home to addicts, refugees, single mothers, and anyone else who asked. They talk about raising their three children in this environment, protecting their mental health and dealing with burnout, and whether they've always been on the same page about their unconventional path.

Today, Cam and Ali are joined by musical comedian Michelle Brasier and her partner and collaborator, actor-musician Tim Lancaster.

Writer Kerri Sackville and her partner Mike join Cam and Ali in the bathroom today — learn why we'll be inspecting the toothpaste tube once they leave! In her books, and as a columnist for the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age, Kerri has documented her journey through marriage, divorce and years of dating in mid-life. Her most recent book The Secret Life of You: How a bit of alone time can change your life, relationships, and maybe the world is about embracing solitude. But in learning to be content by herself, Kerri also found love. There's much to learn from Kerri and Mike's unconventional love story. Listen as they discuss dating in mid-life, the distinction between loneliness and solitude, why being single is better than being with the wrong person, and Kerri's quirky method of cutting bread.

Cam and Ali are hosting an iconic Australian show-biz couple in the bathroom today. Debra Lawrence and Dennis Coard got together 35 years ago, playing on-screen couple Pippa and Michael Ross on Home and Away. And, according to Debra, they still fancy the PANTS of each other. The couple also discuss keeping their relationship (and marriage) a secret on set, how marriage is similar to a corporation, the changing attitudes towards soap opera acting, and why they don't care about 'keeping romance alive'.
