Is physical attraction really that important? Can you have a great relationship with just an emotional connection? It seems that nowadays people downplay the importance of physical attraction and say that the emotional connection is more important.

In this episode, Seth and Crystal sip on Teeling Whiskey and discuss their thoughts on if love truly is blind in the sense of physical and emotional connections.

A lot of the time we can look at the past and smile, laugh, think of how much fun we had, and even think about and shake our heads to some of the dumb shit we did.

This week Seth and Crystal discuss something that personally happened to Crystal recently and how the past, even if you try to leave it in the past, can negatively affect your relationship.

When we're young we picture becoming an adult like; you grow up, you get a job, you buy a house, you have a family, and have your shit together. Boy were we wrong about SO MANY people! In this episode we call out the people that think "adulting" is hard and tell you the things that we don't necessarily think is becoming an adult, it's more so just life. People think that "adulting" is a choice and what it really is (or should be) is a natural progression towards growth and living life the way that it should be lived. We know there may be some people that could get offended by this episode, and obviously those are the type of people that use the term "adulting" in the first place.

There are people out there that you would never guess they were married...but they are! This week Seth and Crystal sip on Sprite Zero, yes no alcohol this week (they'll tell you why in the episode), and answer one of their listener's questions and concerns about their partner acting single. When you get into a committed relationship you want your partner to be just as committed as you, and when they're not it makes you second guess your relationship and makes you feel like you may be controlling and jealous. Tune in to find out their thoughts and advice on this topic. Hope you enjoy, cheers!

Most of the time people say quality beats quantity, but when it comes to your relationship you should have both. This week Seth and Crystal discuss spending time with your partner and how much it can benefit your relationship. Another thing that people say is that you can spend too much time with your partner, Seth and Crystal obviously have a different opinion on that as well. You SHOULD want to be around your partner, they are your other half and they should be the person you want to spend all of your free time with, cause if you get sick of the person you're spending the rest of your life with it's going to be one hell of a long life for both of you. Hope you enjoy this episode, cheers!
