Girls Gotta Eat

We are so honored to have Jay Shetty join us to talk about love – how to realistically look at love, the three ways you should prepare yourself to find it, and keeping it once you have it. We're also discussing the misconceptions we've been conditioned to believe, the importance of self-love and non-romantic love, what the "list" we have for our perfect partner should and shouldn't look like, how to structure your social calendar when you're in a relationship, and more. Before Jay joins us, we're catching up on Ashley's knee injury, Rayna's houseguest, and knives as self-defense (lol). Enjoy!

It's an episode dedicated to something we all (or most of us) have done and aren't proud of – sabotaging a relationship. We discuss all the ways people sabotage relationships, the reasons we do it, and how to stop, plus we're sharing our experiences and the saboteur behavior our listeners opened up to us about. Before we get into the topic, we're breaking down the correlation between chicken wings and blowjobs and recapping another week in LA (spoiler alert: Rayna tripped again, Ashley had to walk out of a workout class).

Coming to you from LA, we are joined by the hilarious Trevor Wallace and Michael Blaustein of Stiff Socks podcast. We're having an extra uncensored discussion about dick size, the "unique" ways guys masturbate, and porn watching habits. Then they "mansplain" the reasons guys: Watch your Instagram stories after they ghost you, talk about future plans when they don't want a relationship, always resurface (sometimes after years and years), continue to DM/text you when you don't respond, and more. Before the guys join us, we're talking about the routines we already have in LA, Rayna's hot tub goal, and Ashley's shocking outdoor shower. Enjoy!

It's a rare and special occasion: A couple on the show! We loved chatting with Lauryn and Michael Bosstick of The Skinny Confidential about their decades-long love story (they met/dated/got caught hooking up when they were 12) and how they keep their marriage and sex life spicy when they've been together so long, have children, and work together (partially). We're also discussing how two alpha personalities can work as a couple, and blowjob tips, including the "coin technique." Before our guests, we're unpacking some handjob intel we received from a man fan and Michelle Obama's relationship advice, plus giving fresh recs. Enjoy!

Chances are, your partner does things to annoy, frustrate, or even infuriate you, and we're here to discuss them – everything from leaving wet towels on the floor to not posting you on social media to prioritizing his friends over you to well, breathing. We're breaking down the question of "Should I be mad about this?" and offering advice for how to communicate your discontent and/or let some things bother you less.

We have another free therapy session with a favorite return guest -- psychologist, author, and speaker Guy Winch! On this episode, we're breaking down complaining from all angles, including the problem with not voicing your complaints to your partner, to how much complaining is too much in a relationship. We're also discussing the most effective way to complain both in relationships and in general life situations (like with a retailer or landlord), how to deal with chronic complainers (whether they're your partner, friend, or parent), and friendships defined by complaining.

We are honored to be joined again by psychotherapist and bestselling author Lori Gottlieb to discuss a topic so many can relate to: The mother daughter relationship. Lori expertly and compassionately walks us through how to navigate a strained relationship with a mother (or parent) if you have resentment about your childhood/their parenting, feel like they are critical or competitive with you, are lacking boundaries or the tools to express your feelings to them, or just want a better relationship in general. We are also discussing our relationships with our moms; and before we jump into the topic, we're opening up (maybe too much) about some body stuff, unpacking a spooky situation, and recapping Selling the OC.

As the 10th anniversary of dating apps approaches, we're answering the question: What are we even doing here? We're joined once again by GGE fave, Jared Freid, to get inside the male mind when it comes to the apps (Why are guys on them? Why do they pen pal? How do you know if a guy only wants to fuck?), discuss the love and hate for them, and how to best approach the swiping experience. We're also reporting our audience poll results for how many people are actually on the apps and succeeding, and giving tips for how to get from app-to-date and best opening lines. And we recap why Ashley officially deleted Hinge and the dream guy Rayna met in the wild. Enjoy! Follow Jared on Instagram @JaredFreid and check out his podcasts U Up? and The JTrain Podcast.

If you've ever been ghosted or gaslit by someone who wasn't deserving of your energy in the first place, this episode is for you. We're discussing how we allow people we're dating (or barely dating) to make us feel anxiety and self-doubt, why we shouldn't, and how to reframe these situations. We're sharing our experiences and our listeners' answers to "I knew I was too good for them when", and before we get into the topic, we're joking about our travel quirks/differences, discussing a hot guy pet peeve, and sharing the names we almost had.

We're so happy to welcome podcaster/dancer/winemaker/Bachelor Nation legend Kaitlyn Bristowe, and she's getting just as refreshingly candid as we expected about her relationship, previous breakup, mental health, and more. We're chatting about dating someone more private (when you're not), how she and Jason got out of the friend zone, hormonal depression, nudes, period sex, and more. AND we were inspired to bring back Is This Weird? (you'll see why). Before Kaitlyn joins us, we are deep diving on the relationship "soft launch" -- what it means, how to do it, and our experiences. Hope you enjoy! Follow Kaitlyn on Instagram @KaitlynBristowe and catch her on the DWTS tour! Follow us @GirlsGottaEatPodcast, Rayna @Rayna.Greenberg, and Ashley @AshHess.

It's a breakup episode for the books with one of our besties (more Rayna's friend) Emily Fedner! We chat briefly about Emily's awesome and inspirational food career before we get into her recent breakup and the ~journey~ from stunned and heartbroken to surviving and thriving. She opens up about being blindsided by her partner of 6+ years, the feelings she'd been having about the relationship before it happened, and how she overcame the debilitating heartbreak (spoiler alert: she's back on the dating scene and killing it). We think this story will resonate with so many, and we're so happy she shared her truth with the GGE family. Before Emily joins us, we're recapping our California sexcapades. Enjoy!

It's our 4-year anniversary episode and a long-awaited topic: BLOWJOBS! We're covering it all from tips and tricks to visualization techniques to spitting/swallowing, and we're reframing the whole experience in terms of "blowjobs" vs. "sucking dick" (which may lessen the anxiety for anyone with a blowbia). Before we dive into dick, we answer burning listener questions and spill a little tea, recap our Miami trip, and review a few recent shows we loved. Hope you enjoy!
