Summary

Dr Naomi shares a recent moment with her son where the “Birds & the Bees” are discussed and she and Jordana reminisce on their own childhood conversations around the subject. The Overshare comes from a Betch in a secret age-gap relationship that is rapidly moving towards engagement and she is unsure of how to reveal it all to her family. A listener seeks help around tipping, especially when it comes to discounted services and the hosts give a Betchicist with their own takes on the matter. Dr Naomi provides an important intention for a listener that could help us all a bit with FOMO and not fitting in. A triggered scenario where a boyfriend goes silent for all 5 days of a bachelor trip has one listener spiraling and another has an employee defending her new hometown after her boss trash talks it to her face, and both scenarios are honestly wild.
