We absolutely loved chatting with author/comedian/speaker Lane Moore about how to be alone (and actually enjoy it). We're discussing how childhood trauma affects relationship building throughout your life, how to enjoy your own company, self-talk for when you're alone, the benefits of being single, false narratives about marriage, making friends, and more. Before Lane joins us, we're discussing Rayna's breast reduction and Ashley's rescue mission. Enjoy! Follow Lane on Instagram @HelloLaneMoore and buy her book here.

In our first solo episode of the year, we're diving deeper into a topic combo that's always relevant: Communication and conflict. We're covering romantic relationships, friendships, and even work situations while discussing the importance of speaking up when something bothers you, how to express yourself in a productive way, why your initial reaction isn't always how you really feel, and how to re-address something when you already reacted one way. Before we get into it, Rayna pops off about everything that's been happening in pop culture (ahem, Tristan Thompson), and Ashley shares an overdue date story. And we're ending the episode with a classic segment, Fuck My Phone. Enjoy! Follow us on Instagram @GirlsGottaEatPodcast, Ashley @AshHess, and Rayna @Rayna.Greenberg.

It's a new year and alcohol is on the agenda -- we are joined by therapist and author of Not Drinking Tonight Amanda White (@TherapyForWomen). She shares her story of sobriety and walks us through the process and self-reflection for people who want to examine their relationship with alcohol and explore quitting or cutting back (and yes, we're chatting about the fear of dating and socializing sober). We're also discussing why our brains aren't made for the social media world and why it's ok to not be positive all the time. Before Amanda joins us, we're sharing our 2022 goals, Ashley has a confession, and Rayna revels in her recent cooking win. Enjoy and happy new year!

Settle in for three women unpacking a wide range of body-related topics. We are joined by writer/founder of Slutever Karley Sciortino and she so graciously explains pee fetishes (we had a lot to learn) and her stint as an amateur dominatrix. Then we're chatting about dating women and why we have "phases" of different types of partners, guys not wanting to go down on you, sex parties, and lastly, why we fake orgasms (and should stop). Before Karley joins us, we're talking about Rayna's breast reduction and an accidental sext Ashley received. Hope you enjoy! Follow Karley on Instagram @KarleySlutever.

Ever wonder what you're doing "wrong" (read: against your own best interest) in dating? We are breaking it down in this eye-opening episode with behavioral scientist, dating coach, and author Logan Ury. We're discussing the three types of unrealistic daters and how to combat the tendencies that are working against you, how to pick a long-term partner, if you're too picky or not picky enough, and what you should/shouldn't compromise on. We're also discussing best practices for the apps, a scientific strategy for meeting people IRL, and why you should (almost) always go on a second date. Before Logan joins us, we're chatting about breakup season still being in full effect, scaring your friends/partners, fresh recs, and more. Enjoy!

Oh yesss, we have an erotic and educational episode for y'all! We're so excited to chat with sex educator and author Dr. Justin Lehmiller about fantasies, fetishes, f*cking your friends, and more. We're discussing the psychology behind fantasies and kinks (yes, including foot fetishes), threesomes and tips for successful/enjoyable ones, cuckolding questions, and even how your political affiliation can play out in the bedroom. Justin is also sharing the truth (and data) behind friends with benefits, and we dive into casual sex and why it's more difficult for women to indulge in. Before he joins us, we're recapping our wild Cancun trip, Rayna's post-breakup turnaround, and Ashley's missed connection. Enjoy!

It's a friendship episode (!!!) and we're covering red flags for toxic friends including jealousy, clinginess, unreliability, "joking" insults, and more. We're also discussing our personal experiences, why so many situations aren't black and white, and how to decide if a friendship is worth saving. Before that, we're chatting about Hinge's voice prompts, Ashley's most irrational fear, the biggest change in Rayna's dating outlook, and the rare phenomenon of (male) exes posting thirst traps that actually work.
