Summary

For today’s episode, I sit down with Ben Kronengold and Rebecca Shaw. Ben and Rebecca are a comedy team who got their start writing for the Tonight Show. They’re also a couple who, after nine years of dating, just got engaged. We discuss how important humor is in a relationship, signs your partner isn’t the one, taking someone else’s last name, when to move in together, good signs in a relationship, and more. This episode starts with a solo where I answer some listener voicemails. To leave one for a future episode use this link:
