About this episode

The episode explores the misconceptions about romance and relationships in culture.

Our culture tells us that you do what you need to do to get the girl, and then once you’ve got her you just sort of coast along taking each other for granted until one of you dies. Because all the stories end before the real romance begins. Reading by Tim Foley.
