Gaby starts the episode by bringing up some nuance they'd previously ignored regarding mental illness and the pandemic, especially when it comes to high school and college students. Allison and Gaby then answer a listener's question about obsessing over a timeline of achievement and feeling like a late bloomer compared to others. And finally: re-entering society and all the anxiety, stress, and excitement that comes with it. (Allison worries about her contamination OCD raging out of control. While Gaby wants to dance to Gaga in WeHo and maybe spit in people's mouths, much to Melisa's horror.)

Storytime! Allison suffered a massive knee injury in an airport bathroom and learned the extent of her resilience. A listener then asks for advice on whether they can continue watching The Bachelor despite its racism and toxicity. This causes Gaby, Allison and Melisa to go over their own problematic faves and whether or not to keep watching, listening or reading art by problematic people. Finally, the kindness of strangers and the thrilling conclusion of Allison's terrible, horrible, no-good, very bad day. Also, one time Allison and Gaby saved a stranger's life. (No they didn't.)

First, personality tests. What's our enneagram number? What's our Myers-Briggs? Are personality tests even useful? Then, they're joined by relationship expert, columnist, and love coach Damona Hoffman who talks all about what makes a great, effective online dating profile, the skills you need to go from pre-date to pre-marriage, the racial biases of dating app data, and how to find exactly what you're looking for.

First, a fan makes an incredibly accurate parody video of the Just Between Us podcast that really tickled us. (Go check it out on @serenapalmer_ on Instagram.) PS: Make us more fan art! Then, Tony Verheyen, author of In Our Reach, joins us to talk about mental health at work and employee benefits for your physical, mental, and financial life. Plus, how the heck do you ask for a raise? Lastly, hypotheticals! Tony is very zen about whether or not his mother-in-law is an alien or rude. Very zen.
