We are discussing the viral article “I Love My Husband (Who Hates Me)” – what these relationships look like, why witnessing them on TV/social media is so triggering to people, and why women stay in these relationships and defend their partners’ behavior. We talk about triangulation (the “us against the world” mindset), signs you’re in a relationship like this, how to approach it with your partner, and when it’s time to break up. Then we dissect two listener emails – one from a woman whose partner never compliments her and another from a woman whose partner has been making her feel small in public. Before we get into the topic, we address the breakup rumors about us (!!!), when commenting on IG takes a turn, and the real reason people like spicy food. Enjoy!

Consider this episode Better Sex 101. We are joined by Dr. Nicole McNichols, hailed America’s #1 sex professor, for an in-depth discussion about how to level up your pleasure, starting with yourself and understanding the hierarchy of sexual needs. We talk about libido fluctuating over time and the factors that affect it, what sexual mindfulness is and how to practice it, how to work through body image issues, and the small but simple life hacks for better sex. Then we discuss sex in long-term relationships – why planning intimacy is hot and leads to higher sexual satisfaction, how to keep falling in love with your partner, the different types of intimacy, why "distance makes the heart grow fonder” is a myth, and if couples can get freakier later in life. We then dive into the dynamics of casual sex (why it’s not for everyone and how to know if it’s for you) and Gen Z (why they’re having less sex but may be more intentional about it, porn problems, and more). Before Nicole joins us, we catch up on Rayna’s bodysuit malfunction, Ashley’s elite concert experience, and we have another gift opening on air. Enjoy!

Ashley’s current husband is stepping in to guest host this week and we’re recapping the honeymoon in Singapore, from the highlights, (the few) lowlights, and even a run-in with the law. Then we answer some burning questions about traveling with a partner including pooping while sharing a hotel room, packing for your partner (cringe or not?), what the man responsibilities on the trip should be, and how the type of trip impacts the amount of sex you have.

We all know women are the FBI when it comes to dating, and we are diving in deep with the hosts of The Dating Detectives podcast – private investigator Mackenzie Fultz and comedian Hanna Anderson. We discuss how to catch liars, cheaters, catfishes, and DOGfishes, how to find someone online, the number one red flag when newly dating someone, why you can never trust a photo, "Are we dating the same guy?" Facebook groups, and when to be suspicious if a guy tells you his ex was crazy or he's cheated in the past. We also discuss the day-to-day of being a PI and how to become one (for Ashley), and we break down two unsolved dating mysteries – one wild listener submission and one mind-boggling experience a male friend of ours had. Before our guests join us, we're talking about cheap guys, farting in front of your partner, and a dining experience we keep having that would only happen in LA. Enjoy!

We are thrilled to have journalist/author/podcaster Liz Plank join us to discuss the state of men, dating, and the country. We talk about masculinity and feminism, and the illuminating research about what type of society benefits both genders the most. We dive into dating and mating – which careers are the best and worst to date (ie. actors vs. athletes), what to do when you know your "type" is wrong for you, why women should be pickier when selecting a partner, and the decision of having kids. Lastly, we talk about the state of the world and Liz's impactful advice for coping in these unprecedented times, and end answering some boy problems from our listeners ranging from "the sex is good but he's boring" to "I don't want to change my last name." Before Liz joins us, we dive into an email from a listener who doesn't know if she should confront her best friend about her relationship, and we debate the sentiment "Drunk words are sober thoughts."

Back for another life changing discussion, we have therapist and bestselling author Nedra Glover Tawwab to talk about healthy dependency in relationships – what it is, what's the difference from unhealthy dependency/codependency, and how to achieve it. We discuss how to not lose yourself in a relationship, dating someone who's enmeshed with their family, why our attachment styles aren't fixed and how we show up differently with different people, and the problem with hyper independence. We also discuss friendship enmeshment and when one friend needs space, accommodating friends' boundaries without losing them (and when you might need to cut someone off), navigating your best friend getting into a relationship, and how to understand different peoples' communication styles. We even touch on parenting and codependency with children.

It's the last episode of 2025 and we are reflecting on the year – the highs and lows, the lessons learned, and if we have any regrets.

We also talk about family estrangement, our feelings on "Life is too short to fight with your family," and how to work through some of these hard situations. Then we share some of our listeners' hilarious/traumatic holiday experiences with partners' families that truly shocked us. And before we get into the topic, we're debating two polarizing shower behaviors, and Rayna has a big announcement! Enjoy!

If you're looking for a healthy dose of hilarious girl talk, this episode is for you. We have comedian/impressionist Anna Roisman join us to chat about the celeb impression that put her on the map, her controversial collab with Hilaria Baldwin, how she's morphing into Kris Jenner, self-talk for putting yourself out there on the Internet, and the videos she has in her drafts right now. We also discuss her boyfriend of nine years, why they aren't married (and when people stopped asking about it), and why they don't share location. Then we get down and dirty (literally) with some "Should I break up with him?" emails about hygiene, jealousy, and being too well-endowed. Before Anna joins us, we trade shocking stories about a funeral and a fart. Enjoy! Follow Anna on Instagram @annaroisman, TikTok @annaroisman, and visit her Linktree for more.

We are so thrilled to have our friends Taylor Strecker and Taylor Donohue join us (mere weeks before having a baby) to discuss all the things – their decision to have kids even though one partner was unsure, choosing a sperm donor, how they picture their lives changing, and more. We also discuss opposites attracting and whether two main characters can be together, when your partner posts non-approved pics of you, feeling like your friends' careers are outpacing yours, if magicians are hot or not, and the lore between Taylor Strecker and Kate Bosworth. Before the Taylors join us, Ashley has updates on the egg carton and wedding gift bags, and Rayna shares why Etsy keeps canceling her orders. Enjoy!

We are unpacking the Vogue article heard 'round the world that posed the question "Is having a boyfriend embarrassing now?" We discuss what prompted a question like this and why the conversation blew up, the cultural shift in relationship dynamics, our thoughts on whether boyfriends are in fact embarrassing, the response to the article (both good and bad, and from both men and women), and more. We also rank the worst fictional boyfriends of all time, from Friends to Sex and the City to Disney.

For anyone who's been fired as f*ck, this episode is for you! We are joined by Laura Brown and Kristina O'Neill, media legends and authors of All the Cool Girls Get Fired, to talk about the painful experience so many of us have experienced. They share their stories of becoming friends, working in media/fashion in NYC in the 2000s, ascending to editors in chief of InStyle and WSJ Magazine, and then being fired from their dream jobs. We discuss how to cope in the immediate aftermath, the importance of telling people and asking for help, and why employers are more empathetic than ever to terminations and resumé gaps. We also talk about networking and leveraging your contacts (even when you're employed), how to figure out your next steps, and why getting fired could end up being the best thing that ever happened to you. Before Laura and Kristina join us, we share our own stories of being fired and how it impacted our lives then and now. Enjoy!
