He swears he told you. You know he didn't. And now you're arguing about whether he's lying.

If you love someone with a dyslexic or ADHD brain, this one's for you. A listener called Emily asked for it, and it's the episode I wish every partner could hear.

In this episode:

  • Why his brain builds memories that never happened (and defends them like they're real)
  • The one question that ends the "I told you" fight: "What's your picture?"
  • Why Monday him and Thursday him are both real, and what "what's your battery at?" does about it
  • How a four word text becomes a six hour rabbit hole, and how to pull him out
  • A short bit for the blokes, because she's going to send you this
