EP 15 was a blast, big shout out to JB and the guests because this is a very entertaining podcast. This week's pod is on dating within our range. Social media has been a big outlet for people to express that they deserve certain standards - men feel unappreciated because they feel like women only want them for their money and women feel under-appreciated that they are less attractive if they are independent and got their own. JB, Shifa and Dre discuss the ins and out of dating someone within your range, lower or higher. They talk about what they want from a partner and what they wouldn't want, what range they see themselves in, conversations around dating and buying gifts and even touching in on quotes made from celebs around the topic - do you have any views on this?

Hope you all enjoy!
