Who pays on the first date — and why is this still such a loaded question?

In this episode of Brother Sister Whatever, Lisa & Josh break down the expectations, assumptions, and quiet math happening at the table when the bill arrives.

We talk about:

• Why money still feels tied to gender roles

• How independence changed dating expectations

• Whether “splitting the bill” actually feels fair

• When paying is about generosity… and when it’s about control

• And why this conversation is never really about the money

There’s no rulebook — just a lot of unspoken expectations and awkward glances when the server comes back.

🎙️ Real sibling debate. No right answers. Just honest conversation.
