Joined by stand-up comedian and longtime NYC sketch scene legend Brigid Boyle, the conversation spirals from cosmetic procedures, aging, dating, desire, power, and why fantasy is often hotter than reality. Together, they unpack slut energy vs. slut behavior, fear of commitment, and the psychological thrill (and terror) of actually being seen by another person. The trio dives deep into roleplay fantasies, Taylor Swift level yearning, why early-stage dating gives some people hives, and whether anyone actually wants to poop in the same bathroom as their partner. In the advice segment, they tackle internet moralizing around pleasure and addiction, the loneliness baked into modern scrolling culture, and whether community can really save us from ourselves. A caller asks how to renegotiate a salary after realizing their paycheck is not what they expected. As always, the advice is unsolicited, occasionally useful, and delivered with love. Zero refunds.
