Girls Gotta Eat

We're getting in our feelings today, fam. Awareness coach and Gestalt therapist Adela Raffa joins us to discuss all the things we're going through right now -- loneliness, anxiety, helplessness, lethargy, even "surprisingly ok" -- and how to cope. We cover communication with a partner (both in quarantine and long-distance) as well as friends and family, anger management, handling grief, and more. We're also sharing the hilarious ways our listeners are "self-caring" and serving up some fire book recommendations and outdated movie reviews. We hope you enjoy! Follow Adela on Instagram @AdelaRaffa and visit her website for more information. Follow us @GirlsGottaEatPodcast, Rayna @Rayna.Greenberg, and Ashley @AshHess.

We're excited to be joined by one of our favorite, been-following-for-years #CoupleGoals -- Arielle Vandenberg and Matt Cutshall.

We're also sharing the funniest/most ridiculous fights our listeners have had with their significant others while being quarantined, and catching up on our latest masturbation mishaps.

We finally have our long-awaited guest from Netflix's Love Is Blind -- Kelly Chase! We chat with her about how she got on the show, what it was like to date someone she couldn't see, her decisions regarding sex, and what really went down with her and Kenny after filming ended (you might be surprised!). We're also discussing non-show topics like orgasms (and lack thereof), sexual manifestation, and more. AND we're introducing another hilarious pandemic-related segment about the depths of the Internet we've all reached during quarantine. Enjoy and stay the f*ck home!

Uncertain and scary times are among us, but we're still going to bring you humor, "hot takes", and dating discussions while also approaching the situation seriously and offering insight on how to help. In our first official "pandemic episode", we're chatting about the current state of dating during social distancing from unexpected breakups to exes/former flames crawling back with apologies and booty calls. We're also making predictions about what "our new normal" means for couples, app dating, fuckboys, and more. AND we're sharing the ridiculous Pandemic Pickup Lines our lady listeners have been receiving. Enjoy and stay safe!

We had #BachelorNation favorite Kendall Long join us in the LA studio to cover some lighter topics (What do you ask someone on a first date to see if you vibe?) to the much heavier (How do you let someone you love go when your future plans don't align?). She opens up about her relationship with Joe -- meeting in Paradise, choosing where to live, trusting him on Dancing With the Stars, and the painful breakup they just went through, largely due to where they wanted to live. We also share our listeners' first date questions (and answer them ourselves), and recap more of our Australian adventures including the best hotels to take nudes in and Rayna's man mission.

FINALLY we're doing a real pet episode (no shade to our previous "pet episode"). We have veterinarian-to-the-stars Dr. Lisa Lippman and hilarious comic Richie Redding (the couple behind the podcast We Don't Deserve Dogs) join us to tell their very interesting relationship story (meeting on Tinder, one party being sober, many months of dating other people, etc.), and discuss all your burning pet questions. We cover when to get a pet together, who keeps it when you break up, dogs watching during sex, hating someone's pet voice, and more. And we review a recent documentary about a very famous cat person (spoiler alert: Taylor Swift). We hope you enjoy!
