Should firstborns always date lastborns? Are lastborn-lastborn relationships doomed? Or does it even matter? We’re finding out in this week’s episode, using research from around the web plus listener experiences (and our own!). Plus, a listener calls in with a PSA about gift card scams. 
 In Updates, Ali & Erica both swung for the fences on Dating App Sunday and parse through the results. One of us already has a first date scheduled that we’ll be debriefing live at our show in NYC on January 20th! Snag tickets at findingmrheight.com/live.

It’s a slightly new Hot Topics format, with both listener questions and a couple AITA situations. First, Ali & Erica debate if a man is the a-hole for not helping his wife carry things in from the car and whether a women is the a-hole for not giving up her comfy coffee shop chair. Then, we answer two listener questions: one listener who is concerned about her date’s grooming choices and one who is worried about potential dating prospects in her smaller city. 
 In Updates, a psychic reading prompts Erica’s family to try to set her up while Ali continues to await Skyline’s return.
