Professional =/= good. Sometimes, professionals are good at the performance, or the fantasy, but not the real thing. Like you wouldn’t watch the Fast and Furious to teach yourself how to drive, right? (Please say no!) Adult films are a performance, not reality, and they’re probably even less real than…
Being as palatable as possible to the broadest group of people is B-O-R-I-N-G. Yes, being your full, weird, and juicy self might mean that some folks won’t like you, but the ones who do? Well, they’ll really like you! 🍑 So why are @DrLizPowell and @DrNerdLove talking about being the…
Just because you’re seeing it on the silver screen (or the X-rated one) doesn’t mean it’s real. When actors pull off their shirts to show off their shredded abs, that’s just as much a fantasy as being a superhero who can fly. Looking like that takes a combo of dehydration,…

Have you ever cared about the amount of someone’s…ahem…ejaculation? In this episode of @DoAsWeSayPod , @DrNerdLove and @DrLizPowell talk about the men who really, really care about shooting ropes like Spider-Man. That’s right. They’re talking about nutmaxxers.

If you can’t trust someone, you can’t build a relationship with them. You just can’t. And look, @DrNerdLove and @DrLizPowell get it. It’s never been easier to cheat. The only way to 100% guarantee your partner isn’t cheating is to handcuff yourself to them and never sleep. Beyond that, you…
Can you remember the time before everything was content? Even if you are as big a nerd as @DrNerdLove and have been racking up that screen time since 1995, there was still a big difference between being online and content. You weren’t posting your lunch or a new outfit or…
Think about a time you had a no-good, very bad, horrible day. Maybe you snapped at someone, but you definitely weren’t your best self. Now imagine that moment got filmed, posted online, and seen by millions of people, who all had something to say. Can you imagine that one moment…
Hot take that @DrNerdLove and @DrLizPowell think should be a cold take: you aren’t actually owed a chance for a date. Is it unfair? Yeah. Can it hurt your feelings? Totally, trust us. Been there, done that. And, do you give everyone that you’ve ever known a chance? Hello no!…

Sometimes it feels like the internet is just waiting for a woman to say something negative about a beloved man so they can unleash all the misogyny they’ve been holding back. Lily Allen releasing West End Girl wasn’t like Beyoncé dropping Lemonade. She wasn’t protected by being, well, by being…
It’s really hard to be the person who actually lights the fire. It’s easier to add kerosene when you know you’re not alone. And boy, oh boy, when Lily Allen lit that fire under David Harbour, people were ready to keep it going. Tune into Episode 3 of @doaswesaypod for…
It’s expected in straight relationships for the woman to stay quiet. She’s gotta keep her shit together and make sure his reputation stays picture perfect. But Lily Allen said, “F that.” Instead of doing damage control for a man who hurt her, she wrote a whole album telling the world…
Where’s the mansion? Where’s the check? Where’s the win? 🤔 Almost every time a woman speaks out against a powerful man, they lose. She becomes the butt of every late-night joke, or she gets blacklisted from her industry. The cost of coming forward is always more than the supposed rewards,…

In this episode of @DoAsWeSayPod, @DrLizPowelland@DrNerdLovebreak down Lily Allen’s therapeutic divorce album, West End Girl. And I gotta tell ya, they’re so here for seeing…
If you’re bad at flirting or talking to people, there’s only one way to get better: Keep being bad at it! 👏 Practice is the only way through. If you’re asking AI to be a modern-day Cyrano, you’re only going to make your own communication skills worse (and you might…
When everyone’s swiping to find love, it’s tempting to embellish (read: lie) your profile, or even let ChatGPT write the perfect pick up line. But, we gotta be honest: If your relationships is built on lies, it’s already dead. It’s been dead. So, be yourself, use your own words! There’s…
So, you pulled a baddie. Congrats! 🥳 But now…other people still want them. Here’s the real test, do you: 1️⃣ Celebrate how hot your partner is and build trust 2️⃣ Start tearing them down or give insults wrapped up in compliments? (If you’re doing #2, we need to talk.) Chances…
