#22 - The history of core stability and the “stability vs general exercise” debate with Robin Kerr

Today I Interview Robin Kerr, a video journalist who makes an online series exploring relationships, sexuality and gender. Him and I discuss polyamory; what is it, where did the term come from, the biggest challenges in open relationships, common misconceptions in polyamorous relationships, transitioning from a mono to a poly relationship, and so much more!
