Summary
This week on Sheena Interrupted, we go ALL IN on arranged marriages…what they actually are, what Western culture gets wrong, and why the modern version looks a lot more like “serious dating” than people think. We break down biodata, matchmaking “aunties,” horoscope checks, family pressure, and the surprisingly emotional logic behind it all… plus TRID decides he wants to launch a matchmaking game show (because of course he does).

It was really, really good hockey. It was hot. Yeah. Really. Very sad for our fellow Canadians. I started weeping. You did? Actually, no, that was you. We have video evidence of you crying at the end of the game. Unsure why. You couldn't answer. I was just emotional. Yeah, we don't know why. Because I'm an emotional person. |
