This week, we’re playing a game of Do We Agree? by reacting to a Buzzfeed article where marriage counselors share the biggest “warning signs” to look out for in a partner. We debate everything from love bombing (“If someone tells you they love you after the 1st or 2nd date… run for the hills”) to the inability to handle rejection, emotional regulation issues, and scarce communication, like when someone texts you nonstop at first, then suddenly becomes “too busy” to reply. Along the way, we share...

We’re diving into spicy dating hot takes and debating them one by one. But first, a quick rant about how the internet always assumes the worst, and why that leads to way too many hate comments.

Some of these takes had us nodding in agreement, others sparked serious debate… and we’re only scratching the surface. If you love honest conversations about dating, relationships, and all the messy stuff in betw...

It's like people watching, but people listening. Expect mild takes, honest answers, and the occasional overshare you didn't know you needed.

This episode started with a simple idea: share the best advice people have ever received from their therapists.

If you're into introspective conversations, thoughtful tangents, and therapist-level wisdom, this ...
