    Ep. 629: Having A Crush Outside Of Your Relationship

    We’re pretty sensitive to cheating and the harm it causes a person (we’ll give you three guesses as to why) so we found ourselves wondering if are crushes ever okay while you’re still in a relationship? There’s no stopping the rush of feelings when it comes to having a crush, but we do have some say over our actions and every single one of us knows when too far becomes too far. Fantasizing may not be a red flag, but hiding and secrecy sure are. Look, when it comes to crushes, we think the best course of action is pretty damn simple: don’t f*****g do anything that you wouldn’t want your partner to do to you.

    Ep. 628: Sharing Your Sexual Fantasies

    Knowing your partner’s sexual fantasies has the possibility to be really really hot, or really really off-putting. Fantasy can mean a lot of things to different people—some may want their fantasies to stay in their heads, and some may want to try them out—so if you and your lover aren’t aligned, shit can get tricky. Sex is vulnerable enough already, and if being honest about what gets you off brings you closer together, we’re all for that. But if you uncover some freaky secrets… just know that you can never unlearn them. Mid-day masturbation [3:01] The effort of sexting [4:36] AI in advertising [7:53] Sharing your fantasies with your partner [13:10] There are some kinks you may not want to know [15:34] Knowing too much about your partner [19:14] What’s the utility in sharing?

    Ep. 627: Dating is Dead

    Trying to find love has been a shit show since… well, forever. We’re just getting better and better with age, but the dating scene, and let’s be honest, men in general, seem to be getting worse. Dating apps are dead, singles events make us feel like pigs being sold for slaughter, and meeting someone out in the wild is next to impossible. Even if you meet someone, the chance that they know what they want in a relationship, are emotionally mature, AND you find them attractive is rare, too. All that said, we’re still holding on to hope that the right person is out there. Cynicism feels safe, but we still believe in magic. We’re too old and tired for NYC [2:05] A less than stellar AI event [6:51] No more ice-breaker activities [15:24] Lore-dumping [20:19] Living your “truth” [23:21] Men aren’t suffering enough [25:15] The state of dating apps [30:02] Attempting to stay optimistic [35:10] Safety in cynicism [37:01] Love can’t be understood via algorithm [41:01] Where do you even meet people now?

    Ep. 626: ChatGPT Ended My Relationship

    We would probably all agree that listening in on your partner’s therapy sessions or reading their journals is wrong, but what about reading their ChatGPT history? More and more people are working through issues in their personal lives using their AI chatbots as a journal-meets-therapist, and that might include relationship issues. And when someone inevitably finds some less than flattering information about themselves typed out to their partner’s own personal robot… shit gets sticky. Everyone is entitled to their privacy, but with new technologies, do new lines need to be drawn? Walking around with a lady boner [1:02] A very special wedding [7:30] Being seen from your bad side [13:35] Seeing your partner’s ChatGPT history [16:45] An erosion of safety [20:12] Is there an obligation to communicate every little issue?

    Ep. 625. We Forgot Everything

    Are we old now? Because we can’t remember anything anymore. Maybe it’s because of our hormones, or maybe it’s early-onset dementia, or maybe (okay, almost definitely) it’s due to our algorithm-trained brains forgetting how to focus on anything for more than 1.7 seconds. No matter the true cause, we feel stupid and we hate it. Are we alone in this, or are you struggling too, Bestie? Celebrity train wrecks [1:53] Our memories are fading [5:43] Forgetting the facts of our own lives [8:43] Maybe we’re just stupid [11:43] A million things competing for our attention [14:00] Is it our brains, or is it something else?

    Ep. 624: Pick-Me Behavior

    Nobody likes a girl who hates on other girls, especially for the benefit of men. Once upon a time, when we were younger, we would brag about how we “weren’t like other girls,” but now we know better. Our female friendships have saved us from our darkest moments, and we’d be honored to be exactly like other women. Femininity isn’t a weakness—it’s strength to find beauty and connection even in the darkest times. We don’t hate the “pick-me” girls out there, but we do feel kind of embarrassed for them. The Bird Life [1:20] Pick-me behavior [4:56] Taking up a misogynist narrative [7:57] Our female friendships have saved us [9:19] Seeing femininity as weakness [11:29] Internalized self-hatred [13:42] Finding an appreciation for beauty [16:40] Gaining maturity [21:41] Subscribe to The Lighthouse Letters https://dannyjdotcom.substack.com/ Don’t forget to leave us a review and subscribe so you never have to miss an episode!

    Ep. 623: We Create What We Consume

    Our algorithms feed us the things we consume the most, and unfortunately for us, we love looking at memes about men being evil. But as funny as the people of the internet are, we do want to be mindful of what we’re consuming because what consumer colors our perception of the world—and believe it or not, we don’t actually hate men. But the same thing is true for memes about being broke, fat, ugly, or any other negative thing we could call ourselves. If we take too much of it in, it starts to become our reality, and that’s not the Best Life we dreamed for ourselves, all those years ago.

    Ep. 622: Are Men More Emotional Than Women?

    No one is more dramatic than a man who gets his advances rejected. We don’t mean to speak for every woman, but also… we’re pretty sure every single woman has either had an experience where a man lashed out at her for saying no, or she had to lie instead of saying no out of fear of backlash. We’ve heard men complain that they “can’t even approach women in public anymore” but we have no problem with being approached! The issue is that men just don’t seem to be able to take “no” for an answer. Our advice to men? Just be normal. Please, for the love of god, just be f*****g normal.  Jill’s big move [1:54] Long drives and nights in the hot tub [5:25] No one is more emotional than a man who gets rejected [8:34] When someone says no, walk away [15:35] Saying yes out of fear of what comes after the no [17:33] Just be normal [24:59] It doesn’t have to be personal [29:37] Just be a bitch [32:25] Subscribe to The Lighthouse Letters https://dannyjdotcom.substack.com/ Don’t forget to leave us a review and subscribe so you never have to miss an episode!
