Single in the Springs

OK. We know we haven't been consistent in getting the podcast up. There have been A LOT of changes for Meagan + Maddie over the past couple of months. Plus COVID-19. BUT we are back. FOR GOOD THIS TIME. and will be bringing you a new episode every week. So catch up with us this week, and tune in next week as we bring back our regular programming.

Thank you to our sponsors:

Meagan and Maddie have local bartender and overall badass Kande on to talk about toxicity, self-awareness, and acting a litttttle bit crazy.

Let's put this to bed. Who pays for the first date? Maddie and Meagan polled the listeners, and we discuss who pays and why it matters at all.

The title says it all. Meagan went on a blind date and Maddie gets to hear about it for the first time. Spoiler Alert: it did not go well.

This week on Single in the Springs, we have special guest Sam Vinson. We spend a strange amount of time talking about pooping and farting in front of significant others. We also chat about dating profiles and personality flaws. Meagan hits on Sam too much. Oh, and Maddie broke her arm. 

Thank you to our sponsors, Blush Dry Bar and Salon, Mood Tapas Bar, and F45. 

Apparently it all goes back to your childhood. In this episode, we talk to Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist Ashley Rainey. We cover breadcrumbing, trauma, and attachment styles. This episode was eye opening - at least for us!

This week, we welcome Hometown Hero (or hometown zero? JK.) Bryan Spiess as our guest! Bryan, Maddie and Meagan talk about best spots for happy hour, weird dating encounters, and online dating in COS. There may be some conversation about waxing, err, down there. We finish the episode with worst date stories, submitted by listeners via Facebook and Instagram!

We begin this episode by discussing Black Lives Matter. Because on this podcast, we believe Black Lives Matter, Women's Rights are Human Rights, No Human is Illegal, Science is Real, and Love is Love.

Maddie and Meagan then discuss lessons they've learned while dating - some of which we crowdsourced from listeners.

We are FINALLY recording again after a brief break because of COVID-19! We update you on our regular lives, our love lives (or lack of *cough* Meagan *cough*) and the new podcast studio! We're SO happy to be back.

Happy quarantining! Not much is happy about it, but we're doing our best to look on the bright side. Meagan and Maddie talk bumbling because you're bored, dating during social distancing, and local businesses you can support during the pandemic.

A few things to note:

1. Excuse the audio. We are recording via zoom as we can't meet up to record with our usual equipment.

2. We will release new podcasts ever Tuesday and Thursday during the pandemic!

3. We will go live on Instagram every Friday at 5PM for cocktails and to chat about our weeks. Join us!
