About this episode

Welcome back to Faking Adulthood, home of the fake adults 🤍


I’m your host Rita B, joined by recurring co-host Kandie Jo, and this week we’re chatting dating, animals, debriefing SA, and spiralling through a whole lot of nonsense — as usual.


It’s honest, funny, and a little chaotic, perfect if you’re navigating adulthood without a manual.
