Bad Advice is Still Advice: Post Grad

In this shortened episode due to time constraints, the boys spend the majority of the time playing a card game called Actually Curious, which is based upon research to facilitate two people falling in love. See if they actually do. They also discuss Pete Davidson and Kim K, and Spotify Wrapped 2021. Keep sending in your questions @badadviceisstilladvice on IG for the next long pod.

A podcast under an hour? Consistency? A lot is changing. In this episode, the boys answer more questions suggested by listeners and by themselves. Mehdi tells a story about a bizarre Hinge experience, the boys answer if they would rather never be married or marry a random person they have hooked up with in the past, they answer what the other person would be if they were a brand of beer, and then they answer what they could see the other person doing as a job if they weren't doing what they were currently doing. Then, Mehdi gives his advice of the week: 90% of the hard work is just showing up, and if you do that consistently, you are so ahead. Keep sending in your questions, follow us on IG @badadviceisstilladvice, and let us know your answers to our questions and what you think of the pod!

In this episode, the boys have a LOT of fun. We don't answer any questions for advice, but instead answer questions submitted by listeners that have us ask each other about funny things and learn more about each other. We discuss what we think the other person's red flags are and give our speech on why not to date us, try to decipher if we think we're 'ugly hot' or 'hot ugly', say what the other person would be if they were a car, go into a long back and forth about turn ons and turn offs, who would die first in a zombie apocalypse, and then we each give our advice of the week (Mehdi saying to keep true to yourself after you get in a relationship, and Young V saying to appreciate the place you're at currently). This podcast was a ton of fun to record, and we hope y'all enjoy it as much as we did. Timestamps below!
