We have the hilarious and beloved Andrew Collin back in studio for another banger. We’re talking about glowing up later in life, self-confidence, moving across the country and going through transitional (and often tough) times with your partner, and the fights you get in when you live with someone (especially about food). We’re also talking about the journey from being a binge drinker to a  moderate drinker and sharing crazy drunk stories from our past. Before he joins us, we catch up on Rayna meeting a guy on a plane, an accidental/embarrassing message Ashley sent to her bf, and comparing current relationships to past ones. Enjoy!

In this episode, the hosts debunk common myths about sex, from blowjobs to body counts. They discuss the importance of communication and using lube for a pleasurable experience. The speakers also touch on the timing of blow jobs in relationships and the misconception that both partners need to orgasm for great sex.

Existential psychotherapist Dr. Sara Kuburic joins the hosts to discuss self loss, self discovery, healing, and finding happiness. They explore the concept of losing oneself in compromises and relationships, living for experiences rather than outcomes, and the importance of self-acceptance and body appreciation. They also discuss the trend of therapists as social media influencers and touch on Taylor Swift's relationships and the nostalgia for 90s supermodels.

We have the long-awaited Dr. Jolene Brighten in the studio to break down what’s normal (and not normal) when it comes to birth control and our bodies. We’re covering menstrual cycles, how birth control affects our sex drive and lubrication, the fertility awareness method, Plan B, and even “whisky vagina.” Jolene also explains how to get off the pill and how to optimize your health both on and off the pill. Before she joins us, we discuss our own birth control methods (and Ashley has a big update). Enjoy! Follow Jolene on Instagram @drjolenebrighten, get her latest book Is This Normal?, and find more on her website. Follow us @girlsgottaeatpodcast, Ashley @ashhess, and Rayna @rayna.greenberg.

Fire up your phone, it’s an app episode! We’re talking about getting on the apps (the energy to put out and headspace to be in when you’re looking for someone, getting back out there after a breakup and the type of people to look for) and getting OFF the apps (when to pause or delete your account, talking to someone you’re dating about their app status, and more). We’re also discussing whether you’d match with your current partner on an app, and Rayna’s elite Hinge prompt answer. Before we get into the topic, we’re sharing the full update on Rusty (IYKYK), and recapping our Europe trip with a shocking thing Ashley found out about Rayna, plus revealing our new Vibes Only products.

We absolutely loved chatting and laughing with Ciara Miller and Mya Allen of Bravo’s Summer House! We discuss serial cheaters (being cheated on with multiple people, crazy levels of lying and deception, being blindsided, shame around telling your family and friends, being able to trust again), as well as interracial dating and when partners don’t understand your life experience. On the lighter side, we talk about reality TV, not liking your bestie when you first met them, fingering, butt stuff, vibrators in the bedroom, and more. We also play a ridiculous, sex-themed round of Would You Rather? Before our guests join us, we’re popping off about Beyoncé, boxers, and bat mitzvahs. Enjoy!

If you find yourself attracted to/pursuing (and getting hurt by) emotionally unavailable people, this episode is for you. We discuss how to spot an emotionally unavailable person, all the reasons we seek them out, how family upbringing plays into it, and how to break the cycle. We share our own experiences, as well as some personal anecdotes from our listeners. Before we get into the topic, we’re discussing bathtub sex, drinking (and how much) on your wedding day, and our latest face updates. Enjoy!

Comedian and podcaster Jared Freid joins the hosts to discuss 'the ick' in relationships. They define it, share their own icks, and discuss if icks have gone too far. They also talk about Extension-gate, the difference between 'bad dates' in NYC vs. LA, and airline loyalty. Before Jared joins, they catch up on Rayna's Italy trip, debate the best pizza chain, and share childhood stories.
