Today's episode is more like a therapy session for Sarah, who has found herself single again. She is grappling with her dating life, whether to use dating apps, and what it's like to be single in her mid-thirties. She is even discussing a new sense that she suspects she will not ever have children. She wonders where she could meet a partner in real life, and she considers what it is that she is truly looking for in a partner. It's such an important discussion for women who want to be partnered, but aren't finding the kind of person with whom they hope to be with and possibly start a family. Susie reveals what she has learned from her month without alcohol, while Sarah reveals she broke their five year agreement to never do another shot. Plus, we reminisce about her dalliance with Theo Von, and why she's hoping to date another comedian.
