15 - Being Hot Makes You Crazy

from Yu Up? with Rachel Yu · host Rachel Yu

Rachel and Piyali spiral through modern dating, technology, and the unsettling realization that AI might be easier to deal with than men. They talk about “prompt engineering” as emotional labor, why dating apps bring out the worst personalities, and how men can go from “good morning beautiful” to absolute chaos in one missed text.They also unpack getting banned from dating apps for being too nice, the humbling experience of Bumble BFF, why hot girls are allowed to be crazy, and the uncomfortable truth that height, money, and muscles won’t emotionally support you. The episode closes on beauty standards, fake boobs vs. AI actresses, and why women are judged no matter what — while men somehow keep failing upward.Chaotic, self-aware, and painfully current.--Follow the host Rachel Yu on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow Piyali Syam on Instagram and TikTokFollow the show on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠TikTok⁠
