Everybody had rules in their 20s. A body count formula. No men with kids. A height minimum. A complexion line you would not cross. Most of those rules did not survive contact with real life.

This episode starts with an honest answer about hooking up out of boredom and turns into a full conversation about the rules we set, why we set them, and what actually happened when we tried to keep them into our 30s and 40s. Then we get into flirting, whether it can be taught, who actually has game, and the question that closes the show: would you sleep with someone to advance your career?
