In which John has a very special Monday talk (which does not supersede John's Tuesday video) with Rainn Wilson of Soul Pancake about the big stuff, namely romantic advice. While Rainn's advice is sound, the video takes a turn for the decidedly unromantic, and the draining of cysts is discussed. Romance takes a back seat, but bromance ensues.
