Polite and Respectful Rejections Sound Like This Guy
Bella is literally in the middle of a text conversation to "break up" with a Tinder guy whom she has never met in person, and writes her final text to close the chapter. What followed was a phone call, text, three voice notes, and then a final text. Still, all respectful and appreciated, but it does show sometimes how difficult it may be for some to take no for an answer.

What the F is a Pay Pig?
On this episode, we travel down the rabbit hole to explore the world of pay pigs and financial domination, including the psychological dynamics, ethical considerations, and societal perceptions surrounding these kinks. We eventually found ourselves building an AI character on an NSFW website to ask her about the possibility of World War 3.

Research Wrap-Up: My Experiences on Tinder, Bumble, and Hinge

After over a year on Tinder, Hinge, and Bumble trying the different features, going on dates, and learning how to put my foot down, it is finally time to consider this round of dating app research complete. These are my takeaways. Oh and a cautionary tale about checking the boxes of what you want in a partner rather than seeing the red flags for what they are...and a reminder that putting your foot down takes practice.

Next up, Melissa and I dig into lesser-known apps... Farmers Only, anyone?

My Attempt at Improv on Asked by Aliens

New podcast alert! Asked by Aliens is the newest show on Cross the Streams Media network where guests get to make up a character and the hosts steer the conversation to some level of sanity - hopefully. Check out my guest appearance on the Asked by Aliens episode 158 - Listener Call-In on November 5, 2024, before the world might actually come to an end!


It’s Listener Call-In Night at Beyond Strange AM… or at least it was until an ACTUAL witch decided to crash the party. Can AP & Chase figure out where this “Jerri Poppins” (Big Time Fresh’s Bella Mars) came from and how they ended up at the studio door? Why does she keep talking about collecting children? Is she from the UK, Australia, America? Seriously, please tell us if you find out. Ep 158 Listener Call-In

Making friends is hard, so I'd rather not.

Friendships, relationships, language policing, being laid off, and work-life balance - adulting is hard. Bella and Melissa discuss their post-COVID personal lives and the isolation that can come from going through difficult times and the need to prioritize personal life over work.

The Superbowl and the Taylor Swift Effect

JP and Roberta are back after an eventful football season! The success of the Kansas City Chiefs and their potential as a dominant team in the future leads to a discussion about Tom Brady's retirement and his decision to come back and win another Super Bowl. From there, you know we must do a deep dive into the Taylor Swift effect on family dynamics, role models, inspiration, and personal growth. Taylor and Travis Kelce's very public relationship will be under immense pressure to be positive role models in how to handle negativity and criticism, boundaries, toxic masculinity, supportive relationships, public scrutiny, and judgment, and counter that with being the example of relationships full of appreciation and support, the importance of simple gestures, and the impact of toxic and fragile masculinity.
