Hey everyone, welcome back to Teenage with Therapy. I'm Gayao. I'm Thomas. I'm Isit. I'm Mark. I'm Kayla.

And welcome back to the podcast. Welcome back. We've had some pretty emotional episodes recently.

I feel like at least that aspect one was kind of our longest one yet. Thank you for the support on that.

I feel like a lot of people have been reaching out saying that they appreciate the vulnerability,

which is nice to hear it because sometimes it's just like, oh my god, we're fucking crying again.

Chill out, bro. You cry? No, it says anything. I just embarrassed myself. Yeah, this was supposed to be

but I think after a short while, I would get like, quickly tired of it and I would just be over it.

I haven't actively participated in hookup cultures. I can't say like, for sure,

but I think in my head, it sounds a lot more like romanticized than, you know, the reality of it.

Yeah. And okay. And by hookup culture, I feel like we mean at least my definition is just

like one night stands with strangers that you either me on a dating app or like,
