Girls Gotta Eat

Should you date for the resume, not the ring? We are discussing the case for the "entry level boyfriend" ie. dating people for the relationship experience, rather than discarding every person who isn’t marriage material. We’re chatting about the things you can only learn about yourself in relationships, whether “dating with intention” has made people too picky, the myth that breakups are failures, what the legal age of marriage should be, and our own experiences with entry level boyfriends. Before we get into the topic, we’re catching up on Rayna finally selling her house and Ashley’s moving nightmare. Enjoy!

The midterms are approaching, so we brought in one of our favorite political podcasters/voices of reason, Jon Favreau of Pod Save America, to chat with Ashley. They chat about what’s at stake in this election, which party votes more and why, races to watch/donate to, actual change we could see in the country based on the outcome, and Jon’s hopeful outlook. They also discuss staying sane in the current political climate, from how to digest the news without raging, to social media boundaries, to having friends and family members with different values and how/when to talk to them. Also in the discussion – the unexpected commonality between Obama and Tr*mp, who Jon is excited about for a 2028 presidential run, what the left needs to correct, and lastly, Jon’s Dating Hack and Dating Wack. Before the interview, we chat about our favorite/scariest Halloween decorations we’ve seen this year (with visuals), and Ashley shares a chaotic Walmart shopping experience. Enjoy!
