Chris discusses his research into why so many marriages fail. We try to develop a conversation about sex and love between all guys without turning it into a boys club. Is that even possible? Examples are given of rituals from ancient societies that bypassed jealousy to defeat feelings of scarcity amongst hunter-gatherer bands.<\/p>\n<div class=\"powerpress_player\" id=\"powerpress_player_6087\"><audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-2226-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/extraenvironmentalist\/xepodcasts.com\/assets\/podcasts\/extraenvironmentalist\/054-loveandmarriage.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/extraenvironmentalist\/xepodcasts.com\/assets\/podcasts\/extraenvironmentalist\/054-loveandmarriage.mp3\">https:\/\/media.blubrry.com\/extraenvironmentalist\/xepodcasts.com\/assets\/podcasts\/extraenvironmentalist\/054-loveandmarriage.mp3<\/a><\/audio><\/div>\n\n<p><strong>\/\/ Music (in order of appearance)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/indi.ca\/2010\/10\/joseph-campbell-on-love-video\/\">Frank Sinatra - Love and Marriage (Remix)<\/a><em>via<\/em> <a href=\"http:\/\/indi.ca\/2010\/10\/joseph-campbell-on-love-video\/\">Youtube<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=YTcILSZDCuw\">Marvin Gaye - Sexual Healing (Ohdahl Remix)<\/a> <em>via<\/em> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.tracasseur.com\/2012\/11\/odahl-sexual-healing.html\">Tracasseur<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.themusicninja.com\/chill-broke-for-free-the-gold-lining\/\">Mariah Carey - We Belong Together (Siik Remix) <\/a><em>via<\/em> <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/siiiiiik\/mariah-carey-we-belong\">Soundcloud<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.themusicninja.com\/fresh-porter-robinson-mat-zo-easy-extended-mix\/\">Porter Robinson and Matt Zo - Easy (Extended Remix)<\/a> <em>via<\/em> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.themusicninja.com\/\">The Music Ninja<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/thebluntedlibrary.tumblr.com\/post\/19233192758\">Marvin Gaye - Let's Get It On (Leonard Destroy Remix)<\/a> via <a href=\"http:\/\/thebluntedlibrary.tumblr.com\/\">The Blunted Library<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\/\/ Extended Clips (in order of appearance)<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[Break] - 39m<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.matrixmasters.net\/salon\/?p=344\">Alan Watts on why Christianity is afraid of sex <\/a><\/p>\n<p>[End]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=frDZsT6SOzE\">Jiddhu Krishnamurti on Sex and Love<\/a><\/p>\n<p>[Additional Resources]<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/vimeo.com\/29807445\">Secrets of the Tribe<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/c-realm.com\/podcasts\/crealm\/334-the-extraenvironmentalists\/\">XE on C-Realm Podcast #334<\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/ecohyphen.com\/eco\/blog\/2012\/12\/ecohyphen-23-when-a-vegetable-will-do\/\">XE on the Ecohypen Podcast<\/a> <em>via<\/em> <a href=\"http:\/\/ecohyphen.com\/\">Ecohyphen<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>\/\/ Production Credits<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kevin <em>via<\/em> <a href=\" http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/SustainableGuidance?feature=watch\">Sustainable Guidance Youtube Channel <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our cultural institutions face such immense challenges from economic and environmental factors that even our assumptions about love and marriage on the table.
