Topic: First Date

A producer's story about telling his girlfriend, Kristen, about the show on their first date prompted a discussion on dating etiquette. The hosts advised against discussing the podcast on a first date unless the partner is already known to share similar skeptical views. They warned that such "tinfoil hat" topics can be a "bad policy" for normal social interactions.

A discussion on the excitement of producing two shows a week transitions into personal anecdotes about high school dating and the evolution of nightlife. The conversation covers the 1970s bar scenes in New York City, San Francisco, and Chicago, as well as international locations like Athens and Istanbul.
