Are You the Crazy Ex? with Nick Viall show art Are You the Crazy Ex? with Nick Viall

Girls Gotta Eat

We’ve all done some crazy ex things, or at least thought about it, but does that make it ok? We’re joined by our friend, fellow podcaster, and new dad Nick Viall to discuss crazy ex behavior, the things we do (from the minor to the major leagues), and how to hold back from those angry urges. We discuss why it hurts so badly when someone betrays you (or even worse, when they move on), how social media makes us crazy during breakups, and the controversial question of “Is it ok to sleep with an ex’s friend for revenge?” We also break down our listeners’ “Psycho of Power Move”...

What’s Going On With Men (and Mating) These Days? with Professor Scott Galloway  show art What’s Going On With Men (and Mating) These Days? with Professor Scott Galloway

Girls Gotta Eat

We are honored to be joined by professor and bestselling author Scott Galloway to talk about the current state of men, women, mating, and dating.

Girls Gotta Eat

We’re discussing the controversial topic of dating a friend’s ex (or someone they dated casually or even just slept with). We’re breaking down all the different scenarios, what counts as “girl code,”  a recent situation between us, our listeners’ thoughts, and how to talk to a friend about dating their past flame. Then we’re diving into some spicy listener emails about a friendship-ending situation and a man dating his friend’s ex-wife.

More Episodes

If you’re into the prospect of sleeping or living apart from a partner (or just curious about couples who do this), this episode with writer and professor Kelly Coyne will give you everything you need to know! We talk about couples who live in the same home but have separate bedrooms, how this affects your sex life (and what sex experts think about it), and which gender benefits more from sleeping separately. We then discuss couples who have chosen to live apart long-term, and spouses who lived together then decided to live apart and how it impacted the relationship. Kelley shares stats and the current landscape of “living apart together” and we also discuss why more women are questioning marriage and whether it actually benefits them. Before Kelly joins us, we have updates on Ashley’s engagement ring and Rayna’s flirty contractor next door, and we debate the topic: Should couples be in the bathroom at the same time? Enjoy!
