This episode we talk to our amazing friend Raquel.  The actress, mother, and IT extraordinaire recounts tales from beyond the dating veil (and a few from the realm of comprehension as well). 

As an additional treat this week, she does a dramatic reading of a text message from a gentlemen caller that is worthy of an Oscar. 

Once upon a time, a young woman named Chandell and a young woman named Laurel were placed in the same dorm room at East Carolina University. It was the first time either of them had left home and lived on their own and they were pretty nervous. 

Fortunately for them (unfortunately for the rest of the world) it didn't take long for them to discover the wide world of possibilities around the college campus. They danced around the campus at all hours of the day and night and met interesting people and learned new stuff and Chandell never strangled Laurel even once for eating all of her cheese ritz bits. 

After college, they both met what they thought were knights in shining armor (but turned out to be only idiots in tinfoil) who both asked the women to marry them and they ultimately said NO. So they both lived happily ever after as single moms; kept kicking ass, even when it was hard and they were exhausted; and only stopped dancing long enough to talk about all of that right here on this podcast. 

THIS WEEK on Love Island... wait no, Love Fool! ...

We have an extra special treat for our Love Fool fam. Our very first couple comes on the podcast together to talk about growing up, coming out, and building a life together. 

Brandee and Laura discuss what it was like to come out in the Midwest and how their 8 year relationship got its start. Then we put our unique, Love Fool twist on "Would you rather?" to test how well this couple really knows each other with a super fun game of "Would she rather?". They answer V important questions like "would she rather have finger shaped nipples or nipple shaped fingers?" and so much more!
