Love Fool

Meet Montana - beautiful sunfish, anime enthusiast, and recently divorced single mother of two of the cutest nuggets you have ever seen. 

Montana and Laurel met as actors at an amusement park . Listen as they recount the highs and lows of their amusement park days, meeting the easter bunny, and becoming the badass women they are today. 

She may be the youngest member of the Love Fool tribe, but she drops some major wisdom about love after divorce, learning how to find inner peace when your world is upside down, and being vulnerable when you most want to put up a wall. 

 This episode we talk to our amazing friend Raquel.  The talented actress, single  mother, and IT extraordinaire recounts tales from beyond the dating veil (and a few from the realm of comprehension as well). 

As an additional treat this week, she does a dramatic reading of a text message from a gentlemen caller that is worthy of an Oscar.

Once upon a time, a young woman named Chandell and a young woman named Laurel were placed in the same dorm room at East Carolina University. It was the first time either of them had left home and lived on their own and they were pretty nervous. 

Fortunately for them (unfortunately for the rest of the world) it didn't take long for them to discover the wide world of possibilities around the college campus. They danced around the campus at all hours of the day and night and met interesting people and learned new stuff and Chandell never strangled Laurel even once for eating all of her cheese ritz bits. 

After college, they both met what they thought were knights in shining armor (but turned out to be only idiots in tinfoil) who both asked the women to marry them and they ultimately said NO. So they both lived happily ever after as single moms; kept kicking ass, even when it was hard and they were exhausted; and only stopped dancing long enough to talk about all of that right here on this podcast.

THIS WEEK on Love Island... wait no, Love Fool! ...

We have an extra special treat for our Love Fool fam. Our very first couple comes on the podcast together to talk about growing up, coming out, and building a life together. 

Brandee and Laura discuss what it was like to come out in the Midwest and how their 8 year relationship got its start. Then we put our unique, Love Fool twist on "Would you rather?" to test how well this couple really knows each other with a super fun game of "Would she rather?". They answer V important questions like "would she rather have finger shaped nipples or nipple shaped fingers?" and so much more!

Have you ever ignored one (or 50) red flags that you knew you shouldn't have? We certainly have!  

On this episode of Love Fool Podcast, we tell you all about it. We also talk to our beautiful friend Christina about how she took her most recent bouquet of red flags and used them to decorate her most recent screenplay (currently in production!). 

Come hang out with your bff's as we talk about all things 'red flag' and how we turn lemons into ... well films

Before there was Tinder, there was the Holiday Inn bar. What would you do if you were released back into the dating wild? Could you survive without an app to use as your digital Sacagawea? 

We talk to a professional who lived to tell the tale. Our next guest talks about dating in the '70s, dating post-divorce, and how she knew that guy at the Holiday Inn bar with the lampshade on his head was the one. Did I mention she has her PhD?

 Love Fool was created to bring a sense of community, along with a good sense of humor, to some of the most temperamental parts of our lives - relationships. Each episode we tell personal stories, interview special guests, and give (sometimes literal) survival tips on how to navigate the dating world and so much more. Every episode is designed to help our friends and listeners realize that these things "don't just happen to you", you're in good company. 

Our "First Dates" episode introduces your new wisecracking best friends, Amie and Laurel, as they tell tales of best and worst first dates, support you in living your best life, and get a little off track thinking about all of those tigers in Texas (among other mysteries of life).
