"After this movie I Nick and Nick and Rachel need to do some repair work," Ben says. "Hurt people want to know two things and two things only if you don't cover both either of those they are not listening to you", he adds. In a real life version of this a partner would most likely be saying how can I ever trust you again? Hannah: If you don't know how to talk to each other or how to calm yourself down so you can have a conversation it doesn't matter.

In this episode, we are jumping into our private jet to discuss the modern day rom com classic, Crazy Rich Asians. We explore the varied ways that culture shock can present via classism, immigration status, assimilation, etc. We also, unfortunately, tear apart the ways that Nick does not show up as a partner for Rachel when it comes to managing the complicated social layers and norms of shifting from one culture to another.
