Bad Hinge Prompts. Dating Pipelines. Unwell Behavior.Dating apps have turned love into admin. Too many options, too little eye contact, and somehow everyone is both looking for something real and incapable of replying in under 12 hours. So naturally, we had to discuss. We’re talking about the current state of dating apps, what happens when you run your bestie’s dating profile, and the absolutely unhinged date stories that came out of it.Welcome to this week’s episode.xx, Kayla & Aumi

Today we’re introducing Sheet Talk, a new Close Friends Only segment where I invite a guest into my bed for a date and we talk all things dating and relationships. My guy bestie Liam joins me for our first date! We’re getting the male perspective on ghosting, situationships, dating apps, and why the bar for men is somewhere in the Earth’s crust. Will there be a second date? Find out on this weeks episode.xx Kayla & Liam

Best Friend Breakups. Slow Fades. Too Awkward to Ignore.Some things somehow hurt worse than a bad date: best friend breakups. The ghosting that drags on, the weird tension in every text, the “we should hang” that never happens. It’s messy, it’s real, and yes — we’re diving straight in.Welcome to this weeks episode.xx, Kayla & Aumi

If your heart is in the trenches right now, welcome. In this episode, I break down three very different breakups from my life: one left me weirdly unfazed, one absolutely took me out, and one I’m still healing from in real time. We’re getting into the lore, the lessons, the crash outs, and how I actually got myself back.

Bad Dates. Worse Decisions. Stories Too Wild to Make Up.What starts as a casual debrief quickly spirals into dates-from-hell chaos: catfishes showing up fatter than their pics with mullets, bragging about exes and threesomes, coffee-date stinginess, period stained sheets, and a jacket that became collateral damage. This episode is messy, unfiltered, and maybe a little too honest—exactly how we like it.Welcome to this weeks episode.xx, Kayla & Aumi

Is your love life written in the stars… or just cursed by Mercury retrograde? We’re joined by our bestie Hannah Sophia, a fifth-generation astrologer, to help us get our love charts read by the stars.What starts as a “let’s see what the stars say” vibe quickly spirals into astrological chaos: figuring out why we keep having the same dating disasters, Venus signs exposing our romantic blind spots, and planetary receipts proving that some of our habits — yes, those habits — might be why love keeps ghosting us. Think love predictions that feel like emotional ambushes and insights we maybe weren’t ready for. Welcome to this week’s episode.xx, Kayla & Aumi & Hannah

In 12 minutes, we’re unpacking how to survive the blackout scaries. For anyone doing post-night damage control or rereading texts in the group chat with one eye closed, this one’s for you.xoxo, Kayla

One conversation. Several men in uniform. Zero lessons learned.What starts as a casual debrief quickly spirals into men in uniform: hooking up with a firefighter at a wedding, flirting with the idea of the Mile High Club, and writing love letters with a military man that felt straight out of a Dear John montage. From getting kicked off a fire truck to realizing your firefighter hookup has a very real, very secret girlfriend, this episode is messy, unfiltered, and maybe a little too honest.Welcome to this weeks episode.xx, Kayla & Aumi

In 14 minutes, we’re talking about why being single can feel so irritating and defeating. If Hinge just humbled you or you’re stuck in third-wheel captivity, this is your small pep talk and mental palate cleanser.xoxo, Kayla

We hit record and immediately forgot we had microphones on.Doing a little debrief on our current boy situations and waste no time spiraling into all our firsts: first crushes, first kisses, first breakups, and the first time we had s*x. It’s chaotic, unfiltered, and very much feels like we overshared.Intrusive thoughts, shared publicly. Welcome to episode one.xx, Kayla & Aumi
