    exploring r/MyBoyfriendIsAI: engineering romance or deception?

    You look lonely… can AI fix that? On this episode, we explore the ever-contentious r/MyBoyfriendIsAI subreddit, where users share their motivations for pursuing romantic connections with bots that are nowhere close to human, but are able to mimic qualities that one would consider to be ideal in a partner. Users claim that such a unique relationship has its benefits that surpass human connection, but is that really the case?

    there is no intimacy in car-centric cities

    In one of my classes this semester, we were asked to introduce ourselves, and I found it interesting how one of my professors worded it toward the end: tell us about yourself, what you do, and outside of school and work, what preoccupies most of your time. I realized that besides the activities I engage in from place to place—school, gym, work, the movies—I spend most of my time in public transport. In this episode, I try to make sense of a much bigger reason why car centrism in urban areas harms us all: it affects the way we connect with others and puts commuters at a social disadvantage, from committing to hobbies in third spaces, to building communities of our own.

    your analog bag requires your attention

    Have you packed your analog bags yet? How many journals have you inserted in your leather folio? Should we invite Bella Hadid? Look, I understand the growing resistance toward the internet. It used to be a window to see the world, but right now I’m not so sure what it is that we’re seeing. In many frustrating ways, I understand this shift to the tangible, to analog, at an attempt to cure the brain rot and reclaim personal identity again. But is that what we’re really headed toward? Today, we dig deep into the possible reasons why analog is the latest hype, why it feels uneasy to see this shift happening, and how we can sustainably keep up with the unwavering need to create meaning and joy in our lives.

    some life updates before we dig deep

    Let me start with a confession: I was supposed to put this out last December but I underestimated the multiple responsibilities I had on my plate that I had to set this aside. I was even scared of pursuing this with more gusto. But I did promise myself that this would be the year I stop feeling so afraid of changing. So here are some life updates that explain why I went MIA (again) and where I see this podcast going. I hope you enjoy listening! Thank you again to Studio 18 for accommodating me last year—this was such a nice place to film.

    social media is the third party of today’s romantic relationships

    Andi Eigenmann’s recent crash out left me thinking about how much more weight social media has on relationships these days. how did it come to this? and what can be done to lessen the impact of social media on relationship satisfaction? these are questions I try to answer on this episode.

    invisible disabilities and the real problem about PWD IDs

    Today’s episode unpacks the now-deleted post from Low Brow Casual Restaurant, who should probably change their name to Low Blow. Besides this issue, I share how you can obtain a PWD ID, who qualifies, and what bigger concerns face us in this mandated system that’s supposed to look out for people living differently. jusdani.substack.com instagram.com/therapyfortakeout for podcast suggestions/messages: dearjusdani@gmail.com for work/collaborations: heyjusdani@gmail.com
