Episode notes

Nick and Rachel had a fairy tale moment on a plane but when they get back if you think this shit is going away you are making a very big mistake. Having an accepting attitude towards that is something that couples fail on all the time. In these kind of situations it can be helpful to find a therapist that has a shared experience like you've noticed because we haven't talked about what they're talking about here.

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.
