I saw Alli Goldberg's live show Love Isn't Blind in LA last month (literally died. I’m now a ghost writing this review). 🤣 Anyways yeah, since then I've been binging her TikTok, and making my way through these eps. Huge fan wanting more.

Love Alli! So so funny.

Hilarious advice for dating - or, breaking up? - in the modern age

The host Alli Goldberg is pitch perfect and hilarious. It’s always entertaining to hear the guest’s takes and predictions about what was happening in the breakup and then compare it to what the person who submitted the text says. There is also some good moments of reflection and learning throughout episodes from the therapist/expert guests as well.

Fun, entertaining and even educational
