    “I Don’t Usually Get This Vulnerable” – Dating Your First Love

    In this episode I speak with my first love. We met as teenagers. He had a lot of swagger and I was smitten. As he says in the conversation, he doesn’t normally talk about his younger years, so this was a notable experience for him. (“My wife said I had to do this”). We delve into meeting at a high school basketball game, falling in love quickly, meth, and the impact we’ve had on each other’s lives. I also interview my friend Rachel about her memories of starry-eyed Miriam. A swoony one.  What love! Speaking of... if you love this pod, my angel. Will you donate to help me make it?

    "You Needed Something To Fixate On" – Dating in the 5th Grade

    Miriam Katz talks to Christian about their first date in the 5th grade. It's adorable. They talk about the difference between boys and girls during adolescence, extroversion vs. introversion, being ready or not ready for romance at that age, and generally wipe away the cobwebs from a pivotal early memory for both of them. Miriam also then interviews her good friend, comedian Toni Nagy, about her memory of the host’s “raw sexuality” in the 5th grade. A nostalgic one.  What a dream you are, listener.  If you like this show will you please donate? It does so much!!! I love you. Please also rate and review. That really helps too! You rock. Also throwing the word "ex" in here cause PodSEO told me I should. Christian is an EX. I interviewed him cause he is an ex. Ex ex ex.  Learn more about Ex Appeal here.
