On this weeks episode the couple tackles relationships. To begin they get into the struggle with getting into a relationship (5:14). In the world today there are so many people, but where do you go to meet them. Next, they discuss what is the dating protocol in a COVID world. As a man do you send and Uber or do you still go and pick up your date (15:57). In a world full of fake people who desire authenticity is it better to act romantic if you are not a romantic person and slowly stop being romantic, or keep it real from the beginning (20:00). In that same vein is falling asleep on someone considered cute or rude (22:41). Once a date has been set the couple determine how important is the price of the menu on a first date (28:37). Depending on the price of the menu could dictate a lot of other aspects of the date.

The couple hit a hot button topic on the double standard in accountability for men vs women (44:14). This leads down the path of how important is appearance on a first date and how long before you get to see what the person looks like without makeup or other appearance enhancers (50:24)!
