Full Circle Arlene Nguyen & Georgia Cato

Another season in the books! Following tradition, we wrap up this season with another tipsy Q&A. We talk about turnoffs, pranks, how we felt about this season, and somehow go on a tangent about finance, making 100k, and retiring by 25. Thank you for another wonderful season 3



We answer questions like:


What’s the craziest thing you’ve done while drunk?
Have you ever had a crush on a boss or a teacher?
What's a big turnoff for you?
What are you most afraid of in a relationship or friendship?

In this episode, we bring back Melissa and Newton to do a random Q&A but make it... Vietlish??? Vietlish, Vietnamese-English, is when Vietnamese speakers incorporate English words into their sentences. In this case, we sprinkle Vietnamese into English sentences. 

We surprised each other with fun questions such as: 


What do you think about before falling asleep? 
If you were to create your own Holiday, what would it be? 
What's on your bucket list? 
What's your alter-ego's name?

...and more!

In this episode, we play You & Us by Flux + Folk (@fluxandfolk) Created to spark honest conversations — in parked cars, or in the middle of long road trips. For after dinner during the holidays, or over breakfast on a Tuesday. For people you have known all your life, or for people you want to know for the rest of your life.

We answer questions like:


What aspects of your cultural beliefs do you admire and want to preserve? What needs improvement?
Do you think it is important to move away from where you grew up in order to grow as a person?
What happened during your most recent favourite day?
Do you think we can get away with committing a crime together?
