Ever wonder why we're still putting rings on it when everything about love, sex, and relationships has completely changed?

In 1940, only 10% of brides got diamond rings. By 1990? 80%. We got played by marketing so hard we forgot what marriage was actually for...and it's way weirder than you think.

This isn't your typical relationship advice podcast. We're diving deep into 4,300 years of human relationship drama, from Mesopotamian business deals to modern dating apps, uncovering the beautiful contradictions that make us human.

Perfect for: Anyone who's ever questioned why we do the things we do, culture nerds, psychology geeks, people planning weddings, people avoiding weddings, and humans who enjoy having their assumptions demolished with research.

Warning: May cause you to see your next wedding invitation very differently. Contains traces of anthropology, dark humor, and uncomfortable truths about why we fall for expensive traditions.

Ready to question everything you thought you knew about marriage? Hit play and prepare to have your mind beautifully twisted.
