The Relationship Type The Relationship Type

In this episode of “The Relationship Type,” hosts Alex Piscatelli and Patty Camerota dive into their relationships with friendship. This highly-requested episode will cover the magic of friendship, how to navigate friend breakups, friendship dealbreakers, how to make new friends and more. A lot changes when trying to grow and maintain friendships into adulthood—and Alex and Patty share their personal experience with (their attempt at) balancing careers, relationships and personal growth while trying to hold onto meaningful connections.

You’ll also hear Alex and Patty’s thoughts on that scary Vice article about losing all your friends at 25, and their reaction to the growing trend of transactional friendships, as explained in an episode of The Atlantic’s “How to Be Human” podcast titled "What Do We Owe Our Friends?" Whether your friendships are feeling abundant or scarce, tune in for an engaging conversation that will leave you with a deeper understanding of your own friendships and those around you.

ALSO! In this episode, Patty fumbles over which moon is best to manifest under—a full or a new moon. According to Chani Nicholas, this latest new moon in Virgo was actually a phenomenal time to manifest and new moons can be a good time to set intentions as they are a marker of new beginnings. The more you know!

In this episode of “The Relationship Type,” hosts Alex Piscatelli and Patty Camerota dive into the first of many dating episodes, and they’re joined by a guest who's currently navigating dating intentionally in a new city—Nate Kling.

Nate is a self-proclaimed intentional dater joining the pod from Portland, Oregon—but here's the catch: He’s from San Diego, California. With such diverse dating landscapes to draw from, Nate has some wisdom to drop about the differences, challenges, and delightful surprises he's encountered while figuring out the dating scene in these two distinct cities.

Join us as we sit down with Nate to explore the nuances of dating—both online and offline—in the Pacific Northwest, what it's like to date intentionally, and the world of dating in your late 20s. We'll discuss the quirks, the trends, and the dos and don'ts of modern dating, all while sharing some relatable stories along the way.

Whether you're a seasoned dater, someone considering taking the plunge, or just curious about how people attempt to date in *frantically waves hands* all of this, tune in for a look into the (tragic-ish) world of modern romance.
