Can You Turn a Vacationship into a Relationship?
We come in hot by recapping our Dewey Beach trip with a play-by-play of all the guys who fell in love with Rayna, then transition perfectly into the question on every single girl's mind in the summer: Can I turn this vacay fling into the real thing? It can happen, and we have plenty of advice (and experience) to offer. And we're SO excited to introduce a new segment called "Is This Weird?" featuring everything from cults to cum phobias. Cheers!

Mo Money Mo Problems?

Doing It Doggy Style with Comedian Andrew Collin
We wanted to do a pet episode so we brought in comedian/dog walker Andrew Collin, and things went completely off the rails in the best way. We discuss pets and guys who are too obsessed with their dogs, along with a lot of NSFW topics. This episode is not for the easily offended and should probably be enjoyed in private where you can snort-laugh freely. Enjoy! Follow Andrew on Instagram @AndrewTCollin, catch him on Sirius XM's You Up with Nikki Glaser every Wednesday, and check out his podcast
Should Love Be Unconditional?

So Why Do Guys Do This Sh*t? with Comedian Jared Freid
We are so excited to have comedian Jared Freid of the hilariously informative U Up? podcast so we could interrogate him with all of our "Why do guys do this?!" questions. He mansplains it all and introduces us to some fun new concepts like helicoptering, the hookup alley-oop, and Pikachu'ing (what a time to be alive!). And because we all love to play games, we hit Jared with the game he plays on his own podcast -- Red Flag or Dealbreaker? Enjoy, lovers! Follow Girls Gotta Eat on Instagram @Girl
F**K YOU Carrie Bradshaw!
And we couldn't help but wonder...is Sex and the City the most f*cked up show of all time? Just kidding...kinda. We share our (very strong) opinions on Carrie and Big's relationship and its effects on womankind, and leave no stone unturned when it comes to the other three ladies. Maybe some women just aren't meant to be tamed...when it comes to podcasts. Enjoy, fam! And follow Girls Gotta Eat on Instagram @GirlsGottaEatPodcast.

Still Not a Player feat. Dale Moss
This episode is a HOT one! We kick it off with a plethora of new dude stories (look, it was a busy week), then get into it with our guest Dale Moss -- former NFL player and current model/entrepreneur (nbd). We chat about his upbringing being biracial in a small town, interracial dating, dating outside your religion, thirsty women on the road, and whether or not athletes can be faithful. Then, of course we ask him to mansplain our burning questions about booty calls, fashion, and having the DTR t
How to Meet Men in the Wild
We got a ton of requests for an episode like this, so we couldn't deny all the ladies who want to stop swiping and meet date-worthy guys IRL. We discuss conquering your fears, places to go, things to do, what to say, and even how to follow up. And because it's the (unofficial) start of summer, we share summer romance stories (which turn into walk of shame stories), and reveal our goals for Summer 2018.

Boy Gotta Eat, Too feat. Jeremy Jacobowitz
We are so excited to have one of our friends and fellow Instagrammers on this episode -- Jeremy Jacobowitz of the incredible food porn account @BrunchBoys. We dig into his personal life (per usual) and discuss all kinds of dating/sex related topics like the best kind of DM slides, "accidental anal" (still not convinced that's a thing though...), and the significance of the THIRD DATE. Jeremy also opens up about his fascinating weight loss story, and what it's like as a formerly overweight perso
The Guy Who Broke His Dick
We love this episode so much, we kept it long and promise it's worth every second. We interviewed Ross Asdourian, author of Broken Bananah -- his (painfully) true story of breaking his penis. He answers all of our burning questions from how it happened to its effect on his life now (ie. is he getting more ass than ever?). And then we dive into a whole bunch of weird sex topics a lot of people are scared to discuss (spoiler alert: squirters and dirty talk are on the menu). We hope you lo
#RelationshipGoals vs. Reality
People are always like "Whatever, it's just social media" and we're like "Is it tho......?" (eye roll emoji) In this day and age, social media does play a part in relationships, and we dive deep into these topics in a #NoFilter episode with our first male guest -- @KrispyShorts of @FuckJerry. He's attractive, successful, insightful, has a legit romance story to share, and we hit him with some real questions during our new game "Mansplaining." We think you're going to like this threesome. Follo
How to Survive a Breakup (Like, Right Now)
Most of us have been through a heart-wrenching breakup and know how much that shit hurts. In this raw episode, we share our own stories of love lost, and how we coped in the moment when we thought we were dying and eventually got to where we are now: LIVING that #BestLife. And just when it starts to get too deep, we lighten it up with a brand new game -- we won't give it away, but just know it involves Tristan Thompson and Colonel Sanders (among others).

Bottoms up, bitches! In this saucy episode, we share our drunk dating stories and also discuss how alcohol can make or break a relationship.

What About Their Friends?
The Friends are important in any relationship. In this episode we discuss, analyze, and offer advice for it all: 1) You don't like your significant other's friends, 2) They don't like you, 3) Your SO doesn't like your friends, 4) They hate him/her back.

We share our experiences dating younger men and chat about whether this is a solid option for women in their late twenties and up.
