Australian TV: "How do you decide who sleeps with who?"
While we're on about poly news on mainstream TV — Australia's national TV network ABC ran a 17-minute polyamory segment on its popular series "You Can't Ask That," in which guests take awkward or taboo questions about themselves from viewers.
It aired last August and was unviewable outside Australia, but now it's up on YouTube for the world. It's a hoot:
The blurb:
Polyamorous Australians, people in a relationship with multiple partners, answer the questions Australians wanted to ask but were too embarrassed or afraid to ever ask in person.
And here's the faster-paced, 2-minute promo, in case the full video goes away again.
Two of the people we see are Australian poly pioneer Anne Hunter (with the dark curly hair) and her life partner. She wrote after the show aired, "We're relatively happy with the result." I think they ought to be.
BTW, here's a newspaper profile of her and her partners: Boomers with benefits: a free love revolution with no rings attached (Sept. 8, 2015), with pic:

I hope they all see themselves posted here and know they did a great job! Extra thumbs up for the shy and introverted who put themselves out there to let people know this is a valid way to live.
Adorable personalities, great editing, and the cute music helps! -- Anais
