They get into first date red flags, weird turn-offs, and why Ari operates like someone who’s never worried about a second date. From being chronically late to oversharing immediately, he pretty much lays out a blueprint for what not to do—while somehow making it work anyway. They also bounce through topics like only children vs. siblings, traveling the world solo, late-night energy shifts, and the kind of stories that start normal and end… not normal. Lauren tries to keep things on track. Ari does not help.
