Will less attractive guys treat you better? Are broke boys better in bed? These are the questions…and we have answers. We're discussing the dating trend of "Shrekking" (dating down when it comes to looks) and why some people think it's the move, and others say it will ruin your love life. We're also discussing dating expectations in general and what's realistic (and not realistic) to look for in one person. And we break down another "Should I break up with him?" email about when your passions in life don't align. Before we dive into the topic, we're recapping Ashley's (third and final) bachelorette in Vegas including Rayna's Chippendales performance, dress-gate in the Vegas mall, and being hot messes in the airport. Enjoy!

| 0:00.0 | I want to start this by saying this conversation is going to feel really shallow, but we can't deny that... |
| 0:05.0 | It's two people that used to be ugly. |
| 0:07.3 | That's two people that were Shrek. This podcast is a dear media production. |
| 0:27.3 | Hi guys. |
| 0:28.5 | Welcome back to another episode of Girls Gotta Eat. |
| 0:31.7 | Last episode of our special month. |
| 0:34.3 | It is flown by October. |
| 0:36.8 | Yes. |
| 0:39.5 | It's my special month. I'm sad that it's going to be over. |
| 0:48.1 | What a month. We have the Vegas flu today. We really do. We are coming off of Vegas. We will talk about it. |
| 0:53.4 | The time is at 2.45 p.m. I've voiced no to you this morning. I was like, I'm going to be honest. The earliest I'm recording is too. |
| 0:55.5 | And you were like, how about 1.30? I was like, yeah, for sure. I'll pick you up at 1.30. Picked up at 155. I had to wake up and take my car to Jeep this morning because I've been like putting this off. Somebody knocked my mirror off. What was it a year ago? No. And I finally was like, and I got to the dealership and this guy goes, |
| 1:12.7 | he goes, I got to be honest, you have five open recalls on your car. And you were like, what does that mean? I told you in SparkLyzer was four because I was embarrassed, but it's five. And what does that even mean? It means that they've been emailing you for probably a year that there's maybe something wrong with your car. And I don't know, are people, every time you get an open recall, you're supposed to go to the dealer? Yes. The shame in his face and voice, like, I'm just supposed to come here. That's a lot. I mean, Jaguar, I haven't had one. I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee. It's not supposed to have, jeeps are like great cars. I'm just supposed to go to the Jeep dealership. Not anymore, apparently. Make Jeep great again. That is a lot. I don't, I don't know. We do need my fiance in here to tell us the stats. That's an automotive expert. I had to ask him this morning what it was. What's, but no, but like what's normal? Like, I haven't had one. How do you know? Are you sure? |
| 2:05.0 | Yeah, I'm sure. Listen, you have a lot of emails in your inbox. No, I'm, I'm positive. Okay. I would put my life on it. I swear I've never seen one of these emails, but he was like, we email you every time. So, like, is there an app or something I should have? |
| 2:18.3 | He's like, you don't even have to pay for this. It's free. |
| 2:19.5 | I have had one recall in my life as of late, and it was this kitchen, play kitchen I got for my nephew. Probably, I think I got it for him when he was like one, and now he's three, and they still play with it. And now my younger nephew, Aaron, plays with it. And it's like this kitchen set. It's written so nice. It was like crazy the price for how high end it is. Sure enough, too good to be true. Recall on it. But it was like not anything that's going to like kill the kid. And it's just was like this one little thing. You know, like you know what used to happen. Like dressers were like falling off the walls and stuff like that. Like, it wasn't, I think, that was going to tip over and crush them, |
| 2:53.5 | whatever, it's mounted to the wall, I think. There was little pieces. It was like a pots and pans or something. They, like, put in their mouth. Something was off with them and they sent, like, new pieces. |
| 3:02.0 | Okay, can I tell you? |
| 3:02.9 | But it wasn't an issue. |
| 3:03.8 | I have no concept |
| 3:04.8 | where kids toys cost. |
