Summary

Straight from your guest suggestions, we have Maddie Dragsbaek, host of the Emotionally Online podcast, in an amazing episode this week! Maddie has been opening up about her life online since before podcasts were a thing and this week is no exception. Our conversation focuses first on her bisexuality - what exploring that both privately and publicly has looked like, her advice for anyone thinking they might be bi, and her experience taking dating off the apps and into the real world. We then dive into dating as a fat woman - her tips for approaching dating online and if she sees a difference when dating women vs men.

But first, Erica is fresh off of her (accidental) fourth date with Tony and comes to a decision about their future. Meanwhile, Ali recounts how she has managed anxieties around communication and scheduling in the early stages with Skyline. Plus we recap your responses to our anniversary poll!
