Maskfishing and All the Other Fish in the Sea w/ Maggie

Catfishing can happen to anyone, anywhere - especially in this digital world we live in. But there are several ways to catfish someone outside of the traditional definition as seen on the well known TV show: there is hat fishing, sunglass fishing, holding "the fish," using filters, hiding in group photo shots, and in the wake of the pandemic, even mask fishing is on the rise. Guest Maggie joins Ashley on this episode, where they share stories of mask fishing, a close call of a "maybe" celebrity catfish, and discuss all the types of catfishing and how they can differ in Philly and Los Angeles.

Distance, Drinking, and Jewish Geography w/ Jess

In this episode, Ashley is joined by friend Jess to talk about how distance, drinking, and running into people (for better or for worse) plays a factor in dating in each city. Jess also discusses her experience with Jewish geography both in LA and Philly, and how even though a city can be large, sometimes being in a tight-knit community can make it feel small. They talk about the stress of driving to dates, getting stuck if you start drinking away from home, and Jess shares a story about pre-gaming a date a little too hard.
