Happy Valentines Day! Auguste is joined by Evan and Dr. Adam Ellwanger (a.k.a. “The Love Doctor”) to diagnose the romance crisis in today’s world. Adam blames the internet which has made everything more awkward, Evan floats ideas of speed-dating for homeschoolers, and Auguste offers some lessons in talking to the opposite sex and recommends reading Pride and Prejudice. The three consider the old debate of whether the rise of lonely singles is the result of men being losers, women expecting too much, or both sexes simply not trying hard enough. They also consider if the rise of a diverse demography adds yet another hurdle for people finding their soulmate who shares their values, goals, and genetic preferences. Finally, the three discuss the Winter Olympics and certain opinionated athletes competing for Team USA. While Adam, a yankee from New York, waxes nostalgic about the games and gives everyone a pass, Auguste and Evan conclude that this all just a bunch of spoiled rich brats ready to party at the Olympic level, do their virtue signaling, and maybe win a medal.
