The Topic Talk is a little more serious this week as Ali & Roark discuss gaslighting. They analyze how the term has become vastly overused in a way that can sometimes undermine how genuinely serious real gaslighting is. Given this, they largely focus on unintentional gaslighting or gaslighting “moments” – how to spot them and how to call them out. Before Topic Talk, Roark discusses how Dallas dating has reminded her of her standards, and Ali has a new matchmaker date on the horizon.

They also want to say that if you or a friend you are experiencing gaslighting, check out therapeutic resources: www.therapyden.com/; www.psychologytoday.com/us/therapists; www.talkspace.com/

Timestamps: Weird or Nah and Topic Talk begins at around 21:45
