The Dating Red Flag Amy Says You Should Never Ignore
Amy Gerard doesn't hesitate when a listener asks for advice after receiving what felt more like a job interview than a dating invitation. A seemingly innocent voice note quickly turns into a major red flag discussion, with Amy explaining exactly why she'd walk away before a second date even happens.
On this episode of the Chris & Amy Podcast, the pair dive into the bizarre new dating terms taking over modern relationships. From "cookie jarring" and "pocketing" to the surprisingly named "shrekking", Chris tests Amy's knowledge of today's dating language and discovers some of these trends are even stranger than they sound.
The conversation then turns to social media algorithms after Chris accidentally sends himself down a very dark Instagram rabbit hole. Amy attempts to explain how the algorithm works and why Chris needs to spend a lot more time looking at gardening videos and a lot less time watching trains hit things.
Plus, the Facebook Mums Group tackles one of modern parenting's biggest debates: has gentle parenting gone too far? Amy shares advice from parenting expert Gen Muir and explains why boundaries, connection and consistency matter far more than following a parenting trend.
And Chris finally feels vindicated after discovering that learning a second language may actually help protect against dementia later in life, despite Amy's ongoing concerns about his Spanish lessons.
