Summary
Have you ever hit it off with someone at a party… and then realized you introduced them as the wrong name to everyone with a pulse at the party all night? No? Just Adam? Okay. This week on the pod: Adam has a meet-cute moment at a NYFW party that turns into a social identity crisis, and the trio debates whether it’s ever acceptable to lie at a party (and how far is too far). We get into a very honest conversation about Plan B, Adam decides he’s going to learn a new language, and Colbie admits she never emotionally progressed past Spanish conjugations. Adam confronts his toxic trait of chronic multitasking, while we spiral through Love Story, JFK and Carolyn, Tell Me Lies, Wuthering Heights, Traitors, and why doomed romance will always seduce us. We close it out by helping a listener figure out what to do about a friendship that makes her heart race in a way that feels slightly medically alarming. All this and more on this week’s episode of Match Made!
