Episode 22: Meet our Bachelorettes
Sunday Sep 29, 2019
Sunday Sep 29, 2019
Last week we “Met Mike”, this week we are thrilled to introduce to you to our 3 lovely bachelorettes!
These 3 ladies are all super eligible in their own ways! It’s safe to say that all of them have their SH*T together!- You’re welcome Mike!
We went through these bachelorettes' bios line by line and were so intrigued by some of their answers, we had to call them for clarification. One bachelorette said she was looking for someone to try NEW things with her in ALL aspects of life ;) … (you can use your own imagination) while another invited her roommate to chime in to offer some REAL truths about what she thinks her friend needs in her life. HINT: apparently NOT a hippie with a man bun!
We can’t wait for you to get to know our wonderful bachelorettes!

Episode 20: Enneagram
Sunday Sep 15, 2019
Sunday Sep 15, 2019
On this episode, we talk about the ENNEAGRAM. You may have heard us talking about our "numbers" in previous episodes, or from other people, and wondered what the heck is everyone talking about.
It's like a personality system, similar to Meyers Briggs, that says everyone has a basic personality type that explains motivations and behaviours.
We run through the 9 basic personality types, talk about what number we are (can you guess?!), and how we've seen it in our own lives, to understand ourselves better and the people around us.

Episode 19: Interracial Relationships

Sunday Sep 08, 2019
This week’s episode is extra fun! We invited our awesome friend Christina to discuss the UPS and DOWNS of being in an interracial relationship.
Joanne and Christina both share their stories being Asian (Chinese and Korean) married to white guys. Join us as we laugh at embarrassing stories about their husband’s first meeting with their families, and learn about all the cultural differences they've had to overcome and endearing family traditions that they have adapted as their own.
Trust us, you don’t have to be in an interracial relationship to enjoy this one, In fact you don’t have to be in a relationship at all! Because somewhere during our discussion we burst out into tears laughing about the confusion that Christina’s husband had during their traditional Korean wedding in which he had zero idea about what was going on.
This is absolutely one of the funniest episode we have recorded thus far! We can’t wait for you to tune into this one!

Children… YaY or NaY?
Kids are soooo adorable! From their cheeks, to their soft skin to the smell of their baby skin, everything about them is just (Heart Eyes)… but to choose a life without children and have extra cash to spend on vacation is undeniably an extremely attractive option as well!
This week we dive into the YAYS and NAYS of having children and whether we see them in our futures or not!
We have soo many fun stories to share about our friend’s kids, how our relationships have evolved with friends with kids, and what we “THINK” we would be like as parents… key word: THINK.

Sunday Aug 25, 2019
Sunday Aug 25, 2019
Jealousy… it happens to the best of us and brings out WORST in all of us! This week we talk about this larger than life emotion that can sometimes takes over our mind, controls our behavior and leaves us thinking how in the world we got here in the first place! Jealousy can come into play in all relationships- Yep that can includes your closest friends too! We will be looking back and laughing at all the moments of jealousy on our part and sharing how we got over it, and what was really going through our mind in those moments. *hint hint* it was likely our own insecurities and not knowing who we could trust. Can’t wait for you all to listen to this relatable one (we hope) |

Episode 16: Cheating Defined
Sunday Aug 18, 2019
Sunday Aug 18, 2019
Cheating… have you done it? Have you experienced it and how do you define it?
This week we discuss a sensitive topic that often bring up many different emotions.
Whether you are on the receiving end of it, the one acting on it, the one who witnessed it, or the one comforting someone who has been cheated on… at the end of the day…it’s all heartbreaking and an emotional roller coaster.
One of us has been through EVERY SINGLE ONE of the scenarios above… and let’s just say it’s not pretty and something that took years to process and understand! BUT if you are going through this now or helping someone through this journey… one thing we can guarantee, is that there is light at the end of the tunnel! :)

This Basic Bro reveals EVERYTHING from... how long he waits to ask a girl our after swiping right, to where he takes his dates and even lets us in on the DEAL BREAKERS that will get you ghosted.
