Just Catfish Your Girlfriend, Bro

About this episode

Chesko and Reagan discuss the manipulative nature of loyalty tests in relationships and the broader implications of influencer culture on social media.

Chesko and Reagan tackle the bizarre world of "loyalty tests" where dating coaches advise men to catfish their own girlfriends to test fidelity. They dissect why this advice is not just insecure but fundamentally manipulative, explore how influencers profit from terrible relationship guidance, and discuss the broader culture of confident ignorance plaguing social media. The conversation spirals through anti-vax parallels, accountability vs. "cancel culture," and why being called out for bad behavior doesn't make you the victim. Plus: the new theme song reveal, thoughts on forgiveness and political cults, and why "I'm not a bad person" is often the worst defense.
