Paris is back for this Patreon-Exclusive Video Podcast.  Join the Patreon at www.patreon.com/matinghabits

We discuss how it’s hard to reconcile different flavors of geekery, and we delve deep into another podcast that discusses how we may be missing the mark looking for “The Spark.”

We flip tables, find Hygge, and have a fantastic time!

Don’t yell at us — we know it was the Phantom Zone!

Roger is back to debate whether or not the Friend Zone exists.  We talk about meeting one of the stars from Aliens, playing an Aliens RPG, and realizing that taking a second to Google the Phantom Zone shouldn’t be an alien concept.

Tables get flipped, Hygge is found, and we get one step closer to turning Roger’s 7-Date Program for Success into a book or something.

Sean Ryan of AlphaCounter contacts us from a secret location to chat with Kelley about whether or not people can date someone from a different political party.

Roger returns to help me leaf through stacks of articles about how dating has changed since the pandemic started.

We tell you what we really think about Wonder Woman 1984 – spoiler alert, we hated it and rail against it from minute mark 12:30 – 46:40. That’s over a half hour of disdain!

Tables are flipped over the vaccine roll-out, and we get warm feelings from Flash Gordon and the local Starbucks Baristas.

Speeding into the New Year!

WE’RE BACK! Roger returns to help me say F-Off to 2020 and get Mating Habits started again for 2021.

We celebrate the Holiday Season talking about awkward gift giving during the holidays with a brand new relationships, renting out movie theaters in the age of pandemic, and a new RPG podcast featuring me! where I play in a GURPS space opera across all times zones.

We talk about The Mandalorian Season 2 Finale [SPOILERS FROM MINUTE MARKER 16:05 – 21.58].

Aphrodisiacs aren’t really a thing, and in 2021, we’re still going to flip tables, but we’re going to right them again with reflections of Hygge to end things on a positive note.
