| 22 Jun 2022 | Going Deep: When is it the right time to discuss serious topics? | 00:50:30 | |
When is it appropriate to ask deep questions when you are dating someone? Some lay it all on the table from the jump so that everyone is clear about expectations. Some wait until it’s serious before they discuss serious matters. Because timing in relationships runs at a different speed for everyone, the talk happens at different times depending on where you are at. Listen for our take on when to go deep, which questions you should ask, and why cool girls are all uncool.

| 19 Oct 2022 | When Your Relationship is on the Rocks | 00:38:47 | |
You have a fight with your partner, you’ve been going through a rough patch of bickering, you have a trigger that constantly comes up, you are in a new relationship and the first disagreement arises…what is the first thing you do? Call your best friend and vent, or get advice! That’s what friends are for, right? Most of the time yes, but there are some times when rehashing the details of the fight could end up being a bad thing. So, when is it okay to call your friend to cry them a river about the d*ck head thing your boyfriend said, or when to bitch about Yoko at band practice with the boys? Most of the time it’s cool because we get by with a little help from our friends, BUT we're diving into when it's NOT a good time to call up your friends and call someone out, why retelling a recurring argument might push away your pals, how to ask for advice and what to do with it and some things you should NEVER repeat. We've got something you should repeat - our previous episodes - while we take a brief break! We'll be back in November and can't wait to share everything we're up to.

| 21 Dec 2021 | Blending Families, with Dean Sheremet | 01:07:47 | |
We have all been in and out of relationships, some were long, some were short, some were fiery and toxic and some were mellow and steady. No matter how it all turned out, we always hope to learn something about how to do it differently the next time by changing our actions and choices in order to get us closer to finding “the one.” Sometimes it helps to hear that others have gone through relationship ups and downs or unconventional situations and still have the hope, faith and motivation to get back out there, take those hardships and turn them into positive lessons that change our perspective on finding love. Today, we are lucky to have chef and TV personality, Dean Sheremet, in to discuss his complicated relationship history, how his public and private romances changed him, dating as a single parent, and how all of his experiences shaped how he dates and views love now.

If you listen to our pod on the reg-u-lar then you’re likely here because you need relationship advice of some sort. Consider yourself lucky because between the three of us (single, in a relationship and married with kids) we cover all your relationship needs. If we aren’t currently going through a relationship issue or milestone, we most likely already have lived through it AND have interviewed an expert or dissected it on the show.
We recently interviewed Rob, our in-house expert on being single and loving it, but this episode, it’s Jen’s turn in the relationship hotseat! For our loyal listeners, you have all followed along and listened to Jen’s dating dilemmas as she went from a highly annoyed and burned-out-on-swiping single to in a serious relationship, living together and talking about getting engaged in Q3 couple in under a year!

Jen is on the fast track to ALL OF THE THINGS and we dive into what was different about this relationship compared to all the other guys that came and went, how you too can navigate through a fast paced relationship without ignoring red flags, and where Jen currently stands on relationships now after being in one for almost a year.

Have you ever felt a specific kind of “feeling,” like someone is in the room with you when you’re alone or like someone or something helped guide you out of a bad situation?

Well, we're lucky to have psychic-medium Chris Medina back on our pod to help us tap into those natural instincts in order to navigate common relationship issues like settling, and the importance of knowing yourself before committing to someone else.

We all know which type we like, or maybe some of us are still trying to figure it out, but do you know which type of dating couple you are?

We also determine which we currently fall or previously have fallen into, and why there might need to be a need for a 5th type, because it’s complicated!

| 10 May 2023 | How To Create Intimacy Without Sex | 00:36:02 | |
Sometimes having sex just isn't in the cards. Maybe your work schedule is cray, you have kids and minimal private time, you aren’t feeling sexy because of an emotional issue or maybe you're just in a rut. Whatever the reason is, it happens to all of us. We can read all of the “getting in the mood” tips out there (in fact we JUST did a show based on that very topic) and while these tips are helpful and relevant you might need to take a different route if you're looking for intimacy. Our past guest Dr. Elizabeth Fedrick is always keeping it real on the gram and has inspired us with another post about this very subject. We list all the ways you can find intimacy outside of sex, why we think these examples are crucial to a healthy relationship and dive into tips based on what we do and don’t do in our own relationships!

| 11 Jun 2020 | Parenting During a Pandemic, with Shirin Yadegar | 00:49:10 | |
We have no words to describe the pain the world is in right now but we truly believe that a change is on the brink and we are all going to come out stronger and better in the future. It’s Complicated likes to spread the light where we can and today we are shining it on Moms, who we know are some of the strongest humans on the planet. Here to help us with that task is our guest, mom of 4 girls, host of Moms Matter and creator of Los Angeles Mom Magazine, Shirin Yadegar! We discuss how parenting can sometimes make you feel lonely and how her site helps you feel like you are a part of a community, why you shouldn’t let your older children parent your younger children, how putting your partner first not only keeps love alive but provides a great example for your kids, why age is just a number when it comes to parenting multiple children, how keeping to separate rooms will help make the family closer during the pandemic, why setting boundaries is an important part of providing unconditional love, how to greet you partner when they come home from a long work day, Shirin’s personal approach to supporting the Black Lives Matter movement via her website, how to post content during heavy times and why being authentic is always best, why Shirin only promotes products she’s tried and believes in, and how to shop for Father’s day during COVID.

Time is flying and summer is approaching. We’re gearing up for what that means in terms of dating and relationships - will it be the opposite of cuffing season now that it seems the worst of the pandemic is behind us, and warmer temperatures are upon us? Will people be traveling more, and getting serious less? We dive into Jen’s most recent dates, as well as both of our upcoming travels and how we’re approaching them in terms of potential romance.

| 03 Dec 2020 | Men Are From Mars, with Mara Marini | 01:00:18 | |
We’ve all heard the saying, men are from Mars, women are from Venus, and we can confidently confirm that the sexes operate from different atmospheres. We’re getting mixed reviews though from our single female friends who are receiving some interesting messages on the dating apps! Extremely forward messages detailing a stranger's sexual fetishes can be quite off putting but the argument could be made that honesty off the bat is actually respected! Either way, we have actress Mara Marini in to debate and discuss the differences between male and female brains, the challenges of dating during quarantine, why inappropriate messages on dating apps are becoming a trend and how to edit your profile to repel the crazies!

| 07 Sep 2022 | What NOT to Say During a Fight | 00:44:43 | |
Fighting sucks but EVERY couple goes through it. No matter how perfect your pics look on Instagram, we know you and your partner are probably fighting about who’s turn it is to unload the dishwasher…and if you’re not fighting at all, then that's a problem too. So, we are here to help by sharing some tips for what NOT to say when you’re in a fight and what to say instead, why you shouldn't name call and assume (even if they deserve it), how to avoid getting defensive, why you shouldn’t pretend you’re “fine” when you’re not, and when to just stop talking!

Despite Rob thinking this phenomenon isn’t real, or that it’s entirely manufactured by women, we dive into how cuffing is different from a vacation or summer fling, and share tips and tricks for how to keep your winter romance from getting messy and winding up on Santa’s Naughty List.

| 02 Apr 2020 | Living and Loving, with Veronica Grant | 01:03:00 | |
The pandemic is making Jen super anxious about dating and putting her search for finding “the one” on hold and Lauren is anxious about bringing a newborn into this crazy new world so we are relieved to talk to love and life coach and podcaster Veronica Grant on this week's episode to discuss why now is the time to look inward and recognize your relationship patterns, why most of the fears you have stem from childhood, what it means to be ready for a relationship and how to know if you are, which type of woman might need to switch more into their feminine in order to find love, why letting go of a plan could be a good thing for “planners,” why presence is the only way to make a connection, how this era of virtual dating is an opportunity for communication practices, why scheduling a FaceTime says a lot about whether someone is “here for the right reasons,” and Veronica’s 5-step strategy to get rid of anxiety in your love life.

We changed our flight to stay a few days longer to discuss the complications that come with traveling as a new, or longer term, couple. Now that we have shared our history with vacations past, listen along as we continue the conversation about why traveling in the early stages is enticing but risky, how the stresses and joys of traveling can reveal the true colors of your partner, why we think vacationing can can get you to the next step of the relationship, how to share a space with someone for the first time and what to do in order to keep things exciting once you get back to real life!

| 14 Aug 2024 | The Big Day Breakdown: We Recap Jen's Wedding | 00:34:29 | |
We are back and resurfacing like that booty call you never wanted to go away. This week, we're diving into one of our most talked-about topics: finding "the one" and the ultimate light at the end of the relationship tunnel—getting married. Our very own Jen got married, and we were all there to celebrate! We discuss the big day, what Jen would do or not do again, whether she misses the wedding planning, and how married life feels now. We break down the events leading up to the big day and the weekend itself. Jen shares her favorite parts of the wedding, from having everyone she loves in one place to the special moments with Daniel. She also opens up about the stress and pressure of planning a wedding, especially with guests flying in from around the world. We explore how she and Daniel managed the chaos and what she would do differently. We also go around the horn to share our favorite moments from Jen's wedding. From the location to the open bar, we relive the highlights of the unforgettable celebration. Now, what happens after you’ve found 'the one' and tied the knot? Jen reflects on the transition from being single to being married, the sense of accomplishment, and the grief of leaving her old life behind.

| 10 Oct 2019 | Self-love or Selfish? with Casey Boshae | 00:52:35 | |
Founder of The Gentle Pit, Casey Boshae, is in for the second time to discuss the misconception people have of what “self love” really means, why self-love is important if practiced correctly, how social media is blowing the “unicorn” and “goddess” trend out of proportion, and the dangerous mask people hide behind in order to check out and excuse irresponsible behavior, while we cheers with our nightcap Care in a Can!

| 05 Nov 2020 | No Filter, with Zack Peter | 00:44:29 | |
The election dust has yet to settle and it’s the perfect time to break the dating rules by talking about politics. We respect those that don’t kiss and tell so we won’t disclose our dirty voting details, but we will say we are equally excited for change and very uneasy about the potential of unrest. With the hope that we can all eventually just get along, we are distracting ourselves from election stress disorder with author, speaker and host of #NoFilter and #Adulting podcasts Zack Peter who joins the show AGAIN to discuss our love for celebs and reality tv, why we should all consider a self induced dating cleanse, the upcoming cuffing season and why we need Zack's “hack your hangover cocktail guide” after the election.

| 20 Jul 2022 | Perfecting Pick Up Lines | 00:45:03 | |
Pick up lines are tough, right? Even when they aren’t as obvious as “Are your legs tired? Cause you’ve been running through my mind all day,” they can still be off putting because they feel so unnatural, forced, and impersonal. The rub is, no matter what you say, when you approach a stranger that caught your eye, anything that comes out will most likely come off as a pick up line. Well, we dive in and discuss what the right way is to go about picking someone up, and where to do it, so the pick up doesn't let you down!

In this Dating Red Flag Bracket, we go through 16 dating offenses and compare them to see which one is the most offensive.

| 26 Apr 2023 | Married with Children, with Lauren Leonelli | 00:46:55 | |
Third time's a charm! We gave you an exclusive interview with Rob on being single and loving it, went for a quick spin around Jen’s fast paced relationship and now it’s Lauren’s turn in the relationship hot seat. For those of you who have been listening from day one, Lauren gave us the behind the scenes from her first date with James, her now husband, on one of the very first It’s Complicated episodes! Now, seven years later, a marriage, a step daughter and two babies later Lauren has a lot to talk about.
We’re excited to close the It’s Complicated circle of interviews with Lauren, who might not have a complicated relationship status but her married life, like most married couples, isn’t without complications. We get serious and ask Lauren her thoughts on dealing with general marital issues, what she thinks about people leaving a marriage as soon as it gets tough and why they should focus on working through their issues instead, and her tips on how to keep things feeling fresh!

We discuss the scandal that is rocking the headlines….SCANDOVAL! Some of us have personal connections to the Vanderpump cast, and Kristen, Peter and Ariana have all been guests on this show! We love Vanderpump Rules mostly because it’s massively entertaining and it’s a guilty pleasure but we have to say, the relationships that have developed and crumbled in front of our eyes has to be the most captivating part. Like the rest of the world, we are glued to the TV trying to figure out what is going on and find hidden clues as this season unfolds. If you are just as confused and equally as intrigued as we are, then listen to this episode because we dissect the Scandoval drama with a timeline of events, our opinions as to why we think all of this is going down, what the cast and other reality TV personalities are saying, our advice for anyone going through betrayal, and our predictions for the end of season 10.

| 21 May 2020 | The Waiting Game, with Rob Kowalski | 00:52:39 | |
Most of us haven’t had much, or any human contact in a while, so NOT doing sex may be a byproduct of the pandemic. We think isolation has changed the dating game for good, so we’re wondering if there really is something to be said for waiting to do the deed even after the safer at home ban is lifted. This is why we are bursting with excited to have best selling author of Why Waiting Works, founder of City Fam and speaker of The Truth About Sex Tour, Rob Kowalski on the show! We discuss why this reformed bad boy thinks waiting to have sex can bring you more fulfilling relationships (don’t worry, kissing is allowed), the scientific reasons why you feel closer to someone after sex and how this can be dangerous if it isn’t timed right, the differences between what men need versus women, when to tell the person you are interested in that you want to hold off on sex and how to approach the subject, why the “I need to take a test drive” response to having sex right away is an excuse for people who don't want to put in the work and communicate, how to audit your relationships to see if true love is present or not, ways to tell the difference between lust and love (hint it’s not exactly what you think), whether Rob thinks that relationships made during quarantine will last and if there will be a rise in sexual activity after the safe at home ban is lifted, how we can channel the energy we have been using on the wrong people towards finding the best versions of ourselves, why socializing with the right people can help you become the best version of yourself, and how to stay connected during hard times!!

Jonathon Aslay, the author of What The Heck Is Self-Love Anyway, founder of Mid-Life Love Mastery, and a successful dating coach that specializes in mid-life and purposeful dating joins us to discuss what self love ACTUALLY means, how to date in your mid-life or date people in their mid-life, why it’s hard for people post-divorce to get back out there, how fear translates via dating app profiles and messaging, what your vague profile and lackluster approach really says about you, how to unlock the male mind and why men are more complicated than people think they are, when you should be N.I.C.E., what Jonathon thinks about the dating process in Netflix’s Love is Blind, and why you should always first ask - how would love respond?
