Twenty Good Summers – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Welcome to Twenty Good Summers.

Who are these people?

What does that title mean?

What were Paulina’s priorities in seeking a partner?

And what does Kim Cattrall have to do with all of this?

Tune in to our premiere episode for all the answers.

Have we had our first argument? Are you kidding?? We’ve had many!

In this episode, we talk about that first argument — which occurred mere days after our first date — and what we learned from it. About arguing, and about relationships.

Everyone wants to talk about dating! And not just how we met (on an app), but also what it’s like to put yourself out there in middle age. Should you lie about how old you are? Brandish a large fish in your profile picture? Tune in for all the answers!

Here’s Jeff’s monologue, “Observational Proficiency,” in which he talks about his disastrous Raya profile and why P clicked on it anyway.

By popular demand, more talk about dating! In this one, we walk you from app to appetizers: Like, what if you treat a first date as a job interview — does that make it less scary? Also discussed: our first conversation, the last shot of The Graduate, and P’s foolproof test to help you discover why you make the relationship choices you do.

In this episode, filmed in the backyard in our bathrobes, we talk about male vulnerability. Do you want Chalamet or McConnaughey? YOU CANNOT HAVE BOTH!

Lots of other stuff is covered as well because we could not stay on topic. The morning was just too nice.

A bonus episode where we read and react to some of your emails about dating. Have a great weekend!

Spurred by an email from one of our listeners, we talk about “I love you” — when do you say it, why do you say it, when shouldn’t you say it, and what does it mean?

Yes, folks, it’s part three of our continuing series of episodes about dating. In this one we talk about baggage, all the junk-in-the-trunk you bring to relationships forged later in life. Prior loves, complicated families, changing careers, turbulent finances — we tackle ’em all and try not to Cattrall, so tune in!

Are you loved for who you are, or do folks selectively pick and choose the parts of you they enjoy the most, regarding the rest as at best a quirk, at middling an inconvenience, and at worst a dealbreaker? Perhaps you should adopt the patented 20GS approach and stop G'ing an F! Join us to discuss.

Road trip! This episode was recorded in our car on I-80 East between Kearney and Lincoln, Nebraska, after an impulsive trip to see the sandhill cranes and prairie chickens along the Platte River. WHAT?? Yes — this one’s about being game, doing things you never thought you’d do, because you don’t have unlimited time and you wanna get it all in. Also discussed: football, mushrooms and Chris Rock. Take the ride!
