05/05/21 • 60 min

This week Marc and Rachel are joined by Scottish Twitter funnyman Paul Dock (@PaulDock93) to talk red flags. They discuss the difference between "fuckboys" and "softbois", question what it means when a partner hasn't introduced you to their friends (or featured you on their Insta grid) and chat about why bringing up your ex too much is a sure-fire warning sign.
Marc explains his distaste for astrology which leads to the three checking whether their starsigns match up with their personalities, Rachel recalls going on a date with a guy who turned out to be a serial philanderer, and Paul tells the story of the time someone he'd never met claimed to be in a relationship with him.
You can find Paul on Twitter and Instagram @PaulDock93.

Ep 15: One Night Stands

A bumper episode this week as Rachel and Marc talk one night stands... and unsurprisingly have a lot to say on the matter. Swapping stories from some of their funniest flings, they recall the awkwardness of trying to bring someone back to their parents' place, chat about the pros and cons of casual sex, and discuss the differing attitudes society has towards men and women when it comes to promiscuity.
Alongside several listener submissions, Marc shares an epiphany he had after a youthful liaison, Rachel reveals her method of keeping track of previous conquests, and the two debate whether someone you've slept with is owed a "duty of care" text... leading to a rather unexpected revelation.

Ep 17: Love Languages

This week Rachel guides a sceptical Marc through the concept of love languages. Popularised online by people who write things like "Paesano Pizza is my love language", they take a look at the original five: Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Physical Touch, Acts of Service & Gift-Giving.
While hearing listener submissions on the subject, Rachel recalls a recent faux-pas with a wine menu, Marc offers an alternative take on the perception of men who don't know how to express their emotions, and both reveal their results after taking the Love Language test. But the real test may lie in whether Rachel can convince Marc to believe that there's something to the whole concept at all...
