Match Made in Hollywood

In this episode, Jaydi and Dave use the new film Materialists as a vehicle to discuss relationship advice. From Past Lives writer and director Celine Song, the film stars Dakota Johnson as a high-end matchmaker juggling her elite clients and her own messy love life. Jaydi opens up about what the film gets right about the matchmaking industry, what it misses completely, and why most of the online conversation is focused on the wrong questions. A good listen, even if you’ve never seen the film!

Victoria Larson joins us to spill the tea on her love life, working with Dave on House of Villains, and whether she’s ready to settle down—or absolutely not. From benders to benching, she shares some surprising takes on relationships, marriage, and what she thinks she wants next. One thing’s for sure: the Queen keeps us guessing.

In 2018, we went on a double date with Heather and Terry Dubrow — best known from The Real Housewives of Orange County and Botched — to celebrate two big milestones: Terry and Dave had just sold a show, and we had just gotten engaged. That night, they shared great stories about their courtship, Terry’s proposal, and gave us marriage advice we’ve carried with us ever since. Now that we’re married with a three-year-old, we invited them back to share those stories with you and offer some wisdom for this next chapter. Plus, they revisit a fun debate about their courtship and whether Heather was actually following The Rules, the bestelling 90s dating book by Ellen Fein and Sherrie Schneider.

Writer, comedian, journalist, and dating expert Gabi Conti joins us in the studio to discuss the different archetypes featured in her book, "Twenty Guys You Date in Your Twenties," which Jaydi is quoted in! Have you dated one of these types? Are *you* one of these types? And are all these types ill-intentioned, or have they simply not met the right person yet? Hear our perspectives.

We thought we'd kick things off by sharing our own love story. Enjoy!
