okay so i found out the knicks won the championship because my whole neighborhood erupted at midnight and i genuinely thought it was gunfire. that's the episode. that's also the prompt.

because this week is about your GUT — the times you JUST knew. no logic, no proof, your body just stood up and called it. the first date who bragged "i don't really read" (her soul left the restaurant before she did). the friend who opened with "no offense but" (the trailer for the whole movie). the apartment you knew in four seconds. the haircut you knew was wrong mid-scissor and still TIPPED for. and the big one every girlie needs — how to tell your gut from your fear, because one buzzes and one's the quiet drop. i go deep on that one.

plus: vito the maine coon is officially my 401k, somebody got rich off projector futures last night, and to whoever set the bus on fire — what did the bus do to you? we need that bus on monday.

your gut is undefeated. start believing her on the first try, not the fourth.

okay so i lost my shoe to the rain on the way to the train and had to crawl back for it in front of god and everyone. that's just the open. that's not even the episode.

it's summer, it's a sweaty 95, the girlies are out here with our coochies out, and you sent me everything that should be illegal about a nyc summer. the backpack man who clears a whole train car with one turn. the rooftop dj with a fog machine and FOUR songs who thinks he's headlining coachella. the garbage soup with steam coming off it. a 9-hour "beach day" that was 7 hours of the A train and one sunburn stripe (we'd do it again, obviously). the mystery drip from the AC unit that lands on your tongue and ends your whole life. the girl reclining on the subway pole like it's lumbar support (you absolute villain).

also a real one — a night-shift nurse sad about a summer thing she "wasn't supposed" to catch feelings for. and me, derailing for ten minutes about my $50 amazon fan (changed my life, not sponsored, will die on this hill) and how my 8-month-old maine coon is going to be my 401k.

it's a hang. group therapy with no AC. all girlies, every walk of nyc life, same suffering.

okay so who owes you an apology? because i made a list and it's basically every man i've ever dated.

this is the apology episode. and yet — no apology. the sorry you're still waiting for. the one that came five years too late and fixed nothing. "i'm sorry you feel that way," which is not an apology, it's a knife in the shape of one. the boss who apologized to the whole team except the one person he actually wronged (her. it's always her). and the apology you owe yourself for staying way too long.

plus schrilla the killa wants kim k as her lawyer because she only wears skims, and i witnessed the saddest corporate event in america at dinner — new jersey's finest racing to make the 9:40 to penn.

then the closer. how do you grieve an apology when the only person who could give it is already gone.

the back half of the inbox. a husband who became a running stat, a Carly-coded shit crappens (the lamb, IYKYK), a 62-year-old still waiting to hear "i love you" from her brother, and a closer that lands on actual hope — the woman who finally met a man who answers questions.

plus: 50 and rainy, and the Aunt Diane documentary that colonized my brain.

why are men…

i did not raise these men but here i am, full-time translator. a man wore patti smith's face to a date and didn't know her name. another wore cargo shorts to a french bistro. one mid-act in murray hill said "ravishing" — with vibrato.

also: the pentagon is now the "department of war." the white house emailed a reporter an alien emoji. a family in vegas filed a 911 report on a 10-foot non-human entity in their backyard.

we close on the hardest version of the question — a divorced mom watching her ex-husband become dad of the year six months after the marriage ended.

this is part one. part two next week.

all rise. situationship court is officially in session. dino is the judge, the jury, and occasionally the defense attorney depending on the case.

this week's prompt: bring me your most confusing almost-relationship. define the charges. who's on trial — them or you?

the inbox showed up. a man with a toothbrush at her apartment who "wasn't sure where they were on the meeting friends thing." a two-year secret long-distance situationship with a best friend's brother. the relapse situationship four cycles deep. and a guy who canceled their Portugal trip and then took his ex on the same trip three weeks later (court was NOT prepared).

also: government UFO files just dropped, but is this disclosure or Doty? a deep dive into the Aviary, the Red Book, the Yellow Book, and why Tartaria is probably russian propaganda. the Should I Marry a Murderer Netflix doc that should have been forty minutes. and three of dino's own exhibits — the Real World guy, the SoulCycle guy, and the friend who was never officially anything.

next week's prompt: WHY do men do the things they do? get your theories in by sunday.

we’ve all watched someone disappear into a relationship. the quieter laugh. the new opinions. the boots that mysteriously vanished.

this week’s prompt: tell me about someone you watched change. or tell me if that person was you.
a broken coffee table. a man who weighed his cereal with airpods in. a friend in a peach dress watching the smartest weirdest person she knows marry someone who finds her “a little much.” a husband who’s been “bullish” at brunch since 2021.

also: i fear you, babe deep dive is out this Thursday — a missing italian volleyball player, a medium, animal bones in a river. Be sure to follow and listen.

the red flag support group is now in session.

hi my name is dino, i saw the red flag, and i waved back. some of us waved enthusiastically. some of us decorated the flag. some of us asked the red flag to move in and then acted surprised when it was still a red flag inside our apartment.

this week: seven dates with a man who loved his ex more than her. the waiter who knew before she did. the woman who thought she was the exception to "women are too dramatic." a friendship that ended not with a fight but with enough cancelled plans that there was nothing left to cancel. a hiring manager who presented someone else's idea as her own while making eye contact. a man who called therapy a crutch — she did not tell him he was the reason she needed it. and a closer from a woman who didn't ignore her red flags. she decorated them. and lost both the relationship and the story she'd built around it.

also: april in new york and it is FREEZING. jay shetty's wedding officiant era. shots at the white house correspondents' dinner. carly aquilino forever.

full-time feeler. part-time hater. weekly voice note. send your mess to ihearyoubabepod@gmail.com. 🚩
