Obsessively checking your phone? Losing your mind over every “k”? This is quite possibly anxious attachment.

In part two of our series, we get into the chasers, and explain where this wiring comes from. We tell you how it wrecks relationships and the ways to break the cycle. Whether you are the anxious one or in a relationship with someone who is, we'll breakdown how to best handle it.

You say you need space. They say they're just "really busy." But what if what you're calling independence is actually avoidant attachment? In this episode, Trent kicks off a multi-part series breaking down the psychology behind how we disconnect in relationships. Backed by psychological research, this first episode gets deep into the dismissive avoidant style. He explains where it comes from, how it plays out in modern dating, and ...

This one’s real. Real bios. Real photos. Real lies.

I went through my actual dating feed live and called out every ridiculous, half-assed, or straight-up manipulative profile I came across. But it doesn’t stop there. Because one profile wasn’t just bad, it was sick!

She’s a flight attendant, used her uniform in photos, and claimed to be single. What she didn’t mention? She’s married and her husband has a terrible illness. And she’s...

This week Trent rips into social media clowns doing stupid shit for clout, loud dickheads who slam everything like they’re in a contest, and dog owners who treat their pets like trash. Skateboard face plants and dogs chained like old bikes, he’s over the bullshit.

I’m pissed. Grown men leering at women like they’re zoo animals while yelling from cars, staring like dipshits. It’s pathetic and needs to stop.

Then there’s rich guys dressing like they’re in middle school with shitty cargo shorts and t-shirts with holes in them. It's just effin lazy!

Ten minutes of me tearing into this bs because I'm plumb out of patience for morons. That’s it.

You aren't funny or special, and here's why. This is a stripped-down episode about existential exhaustion, losing momentum, and the hollow repetition of trying to stay afloat when you're not sure if anything matters anymore.

It’s not generational or cultural. It’s basic manners, emotional awareness, and the erosion of decency and how nobody seems to have it anymore. Let's talk about it this week!

Why I’m choosing to faint more in public, and why it totally works for any occasion.

Also, oat milk meltdowns, machetes in a Wendy’s parking lot, police dealing with chaos, unintentional midlife cosplay, and the street smarts bad guys don't want you to know about. Get ready to feel old, unsafe, and kindly attacked.

So, like every other week.

Have you ever received a text message meant for someone else that revealed something they would never want you to know? It probably wasn't as revealing as the one I received! I have a personal story about a text I received from my girlfriend that wasn't meant for me. It revealed more in one sentence than had she written a novel and the gross lies she's used to cover it up.

But that's what liars do.

Why your profile photo has got to go? It's bringing you down and keeping you alone.

Also, women, are you TOO close with your adult son? Do you need to mention in your bio that "the man in the photo is my son" because of how easily he could be mistaken for your date otherwise? If you answered yes to either, then he'll likely be the last boyfriend you'll ever have.
