Mad About You

A while back, we talked about the rise of people turning to AI for relationship advice, and why that might not always be a great idea. So today, we’re putting it to the test. Our producer has pulled together real Reddit submissions from people looking for advice on everything from dating dilemmas to relationship drama. We’ll tackle each one ourselves, then see what ChatGPT has to say. Who gives better advice: us or AI?

Jade´went viral online a few years back for fainting at a wedding (she was fine, don't worry), and she's done it again, this time overseas, in Europe, whilst pregnant, by herself. A nightmare scenario when travelling abroad. So, we thought we'd unpack some other nightmare travel scenarios in today's episode.

Jadé is back from her 2-week trip in Montenegro, whilst Lachie was home looking after Fletch and Harvey. The time away from each other had both of them thinking about how grateful they are for each other and their family, and also what it would be like if they were single parents, with Jadé commending her mother as a single parent.

You've sent in some of your worst date experiences, and we're reading them out. But before that, Jadé has an issue with the way Lachie eats Tuna from a can; dunno if we can get behind this one.

We have such a fun episode for you today. Jadé and I are joined by the hilarious (and handsome) Matty J & Ash Wicks, best known for their podcast 'The Two Doting Dads'. It's a barrel of laughs from the get-go; we dive into how their views of manhood changed once they had children, we talk parenting, relationships, sex, what the worst kids' TV show is, and how pointless baby shoes are.

Today is all about hypotheticals. I have come up with a bunch of fake scenarios our children could get themselves into as they grow up, and I'm keen to see how Jadé responds and if we are aligned as parents.

Our producer has well and truly stitched us up today. We have a list of questions that we need to answer about the other person and our relationship. This could either end very badly or very hilariously. We take our revenge at the end of the episode, though, by making our producer provide the "Ask Mum & Dad".

Yes, we know what you're thinking... Our lives are about to get so much more hectic, and we couldn't be more excited. Our beautiful little girl is on the way, and Jadé has found this pregnancy so different from the last two. On top of that, we have also just moved house. We are homeowners for the very first time. A lot is happening, and we're going to give you the debrief on all of it in today's episode.

We have a cracker of an episode for you today. We are joined by Dr. Lisa Portolan, an Australian author, cultural commentator, and expert on modern relationships, specialising in love, sex, intimacy, gender, and dating culture. She is widely recognised for her insights into how technology and social change are reshaping the way we date, form relationships, and experience connection. Her work explores topics such as dating apps, emotional labour, heterofatalism, gender dynamics, and the future of intimacy in a digital world. Lisa holds a PhD in Cultural Studies from Western Sydney University, where her research focused on how dating apps have transformed intimacy and desire.

Getting married is the fun part, but after marriage, you're now part of your partner's family for life. For some, it's all smooth sailing, but for others, it's straight up hell on earth. Today, we are reading out some horrendous tales you've sent in about your in-laws from hell. We also have some questions sent in that we are going to answer all about our mental load and capacity as parents.

Have you even taken out petty revenge on your partner? How low would you go to stick it back to someone? Well, we asked, and you provided some hilarious tales that left our jaws on the floor. But before all of this, I'm having a rant about Facebook Marketplace.

We are continuing on with our chat with Emily Musgrove this week, who shares some incredible insights on the indicators for divorce and shares her take on using AI as your therapist. But before that, Jadé has some thoughts on a recent video that has sparked controversy online.

Today, we are tackling a topic not spoken about enough. Couples spend so much time preparing for the birth of their first child that they fail to prepare for the permanent life transition that finally hits them weeks after. This can cause major strain on a relationship. Today, we are joined by Clinical Psychologist, Dr. Emily Musgrove. She is a Melbourne-based clinical psychologist, author of the book Unstuck , and the resident psychologist on The Imperfects. She has worked in private practice and tertiary settings for over a decade and is known for making psychology accessible, practical, and compassionate.

We have entered the era of AI, and this new era in tech is having an impact on the psychology space, with people and couples using AI platforms like ChatGPT as their personal therapist. What are the implications of this? Is it helping relationships, or is it just an echo chamber for people's feelings and points of view to be biasly validated?

Well, this week Jadé and I took 'The Relationship Satisfaction Scale' test by The Reconnection Institute to test our compatibility. No matter what stage your relationship is in, this is an amazing way to start conversations you may find difficult and explore new ways of thinking with your partner. Plus, we check in with Anna McEvoy from the "Where's Your Head At?" podcast on how parenting is going and offer her some (hopefully) useful advice.
