Separation Anxiety

TikTok is going crazy over a voice memo posted to the social media site, purportedly sent from a man ahead of a planned second date with a woman he just met. T.J. questions the validity of the voice memo, but regardless of its validity, it’s sparked an interesting debate online. While having someone disclose their sexual intentions in advance is generally regarded as a good thing, it was presented as an ultimatum rather than a conversation, and that’s been the big issue. Was he manipulative and disrespectful, or was he just replaying a refreshing directness we’re not used to hearing in the dating world. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A heartbreaking, yet beautiful love story is emerging out of Arkansas. 24-year-old Arkansas police officer Fred Marsh proposed to his girlfriend of three years and then went on a canoe trip with another couple to celebrate. Within hours of his proposal, his brand new fiancée, Hailey, struggled while in the water and Marsh immediately jumped into the river to push her towards the canoe, and to safety. Unfortunately, Marsh then struggled, became exhausted, and slipped under the water, never to come back up again alive. We remember the young man who died, as he lived, a hero to the love of his life, to his family and to the community he served.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Rabid fans have overreacted to what they deem as ‘bad behavior’ by Love Islander Zach Georgiou, effectively shutting down his TikTok account for part of the day on Tuesday. A group of fans banded together to falsely “report” Zach’s account, which spurred Season 8 winner, Trinity, to publicly defend him, telling her followers to stop the hate and ignorant comments. A new article in Harper’s Bazaar may be fueling some of the controversy, pointing to what it calls the male misogyny on full display this season, naming specific male islanders and listing their grievances against the women of the villa.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

No surprise, but Trinity and Bryce are the Season 8 winners of 'Love Island.'
