Britt's A Quake Girly, Laura's Clucky an...

BRITTANY HOCKLEY AND LAURA BYRNE
About this episode

Hey Lifers,

PLEASE VOTE FOR US IN THE AUS PODCAST AWARDS

Britt's jet lagged after her trip to Romania. It was somewhat eventful and she's now an experienced quake girly. Laura's daughter Marlie is about to graduate from preschool and we're curious to know what your graduation song was. Was it Green Day or... eye of the tiger?
Now that Laura has had a week off and Marlie Mae is about to go to school, she's back considering having another child. Britt is strongly considering blackmail! If you already have kids and you’ve thought about having another, did you mention it to your kids? Did you want their thoughts on whether they’d like an extra sibling?

A dating app has brought in a new feature to try and reduce dating fatigue and avoid analysis paralysis. Hinge will now stop you from matching with someone new if you have 8 or more messages waiting for a response from you. 
The idea is to make it a more conscious effort and only have a few conversations going at a time. If you're in the dating world, is this good news for you?
Do you think it will cut down on people 'window shopping' or just swiping for validation?

We spoke about the episode we did with Therapy Jeff - Why Is Dating So Hard These Days?
