Episode 56 - Date Night: Deep Dive Edition

Get A Room Podcast

On this episode we talk about date night again, with more details than our old date night episode. We talk about a date we had a few years ago where one of us ended up in the emergency room, but we still had a great time. We also update with some at home date ideas since many people can’t go out right now.
