Episode Description
Amy & Tommy's scrappy DIY podcast production catches up with them—this was the first episode in which they desperately needed an intern! At least to remind them of last episode's "cornerstones of romantic love." But do not fear! Here are all FOUR cornerstones of romantic love that have emerged over the last two episodes:
- Talk talk talking. Keep the channel OPEN.
- Treat the relationship as a third thing.
- Authenticity. Get to know yourself and express it as purely as you can.
- Repair. It's never too late.
All this from the final episode of Season 1 of Heated Rivalry (sigh).
