Quick & Questionable: Episode #1

First Dates, Not First 48

Dating should be fun- not a crime documentary. In this episode, we’re diving into the many layers of safety in the modern dating world: physical, mental, emotional, and even online. From trusting your gut on first dates to keeping your private info actually private, we share stories, strategies, and a few laughs along the way. Because yes, it’s important to carry your pepper spray, but it’s just as important to protect your peace of mind.

Our Red Flag Is That We Don't See Red Flags

In this week's episode, we're waving the red flag and trying to figure out which ones actually matter. From questionable communication habits to low-key behaviors that could grow into full-blown walking warning signs, we're breaking it all down. We talk through our personal red flag radar systems, debate which are forgivable, and yes- video gaming may or may not come up (is it a red flag... or just Tuesday night?). Expect laughs, some spicy honesty, and a few moments of: "Wait... should that have been a dealbreaker?" Whether you're a flag collector or perpetually optimistic, this episode is your guide to spotting the signals early- and deciding when to run or stay for brunch.

First Date: Etiquette, Safety, and Expecting the Unexpected

In part two of our First Date Series, we're talking about what actually goes down during the date. From unspoken expectations to red flag radar, we're breaking it all down. We cover safety, first impressions, surprising green flags, and telling some stories along the way that may or may not have anything to do with the subject at hand because, well, that's what we do. This is the kind of conversation you'd want in your ear while getting ready for your next date...or recovering from the last one. If hearing our stories elicits a bit of fear but also a bit of excitement, then we're doing something right!

Quick & Questionable: Episode #1

Welcome to Quick & Questionable—our short, off-the-cuff episodes that drop in between our regularly scheduled deep dives. These bite-sized episodes are where we ditch the script, embrace the chaos, and talk about literally whatever’s on our minds. Expect the unexpected, the ridiculous, and the conversations you didn’t know you needed.   This time, we’re bringing you “Girls’ Night Debrief”—aka how a simple brunch plan spiraled into a full-fledged adventure (and by “adventure,” we mean questionable decisions, excellent stories, and maybe a mild hangover). It all started with Mary Nelle’s birthday brunch… and, well, let’s just say things unraveled from there.

First Date Prep: Expectations, Effort, and Questionable Choices

Before the date even happens, there’s a whole process that goes into deciding if it’s worth saying yes. In this episode-the first of our three-part First Date Breakdown Series-we’re talking about what goes into preparing for a first date: how we decide if we’re going, what we expect from pre-date communication, and the effort it takes for a woman to get ready (spoiler: it’s a lot). Plus, we’re introducing our brand-new segment, “We Have Thoughts, But No Credentials,” where we give our completely unqualified advice on listener-submitted questions. Will you want to take our advice? Maybe. Will it be entertaining? Absolutely. Buckle up, because we’re just getting started—next up, the actual date!
