On this latest episode of Thoughts on the Table, the crew dives deep into everything from sex and threesomes to fashion dilemmas in relationships—and, of course, they add a spicy twist with some cardiovascular health facts thrown in for good measure. The episode’s packed with humor, awkward moments, and a few shocking revelations that will have you laughing and cringing all at once.
The episode kicks off with the popular Let’s Get It Cracking segment, where the hosts share some eyebrow-raising statistics that are sure to make you rethink a few things:
- Only 12% of relationships in America start online (yet 70% of lesbian couples do!).
- Hawaii leads with the highest cost of living in 2024.
- Singles are definitely texting over making phone calls (guilty as charged).
- Infidelity? Only 15.6% of couples stay together after cheating.
- Nevada takes the crown for the highest divorce rate in 2024. And, just in case you needed more to think about while scrolling through dating apps: lack of sexual activity increases the risk of cardiovascular disease. Yep, that’s a conversation starter.
From there, the hosts get into some juicy relationship debates, starting with threesomes in relationships. Max is all in—on one condition: strong boundaries and communication. Subu and Kayla are a little more hesitant but don’t completely shut the idea down. It’s clear: rules and boundaries are key to keeping things fun and safe.
Next up: relationship breaks. Opinions are divided. Some of the crew think breaks can be a healthy reset, while one host passionately declares, “There’s no breaks,” making it clear that breaks aren’t in their relationship vocabulary. The discussion evolves to distinguish between breaks in dating vs. marriage. It’s clear: context is everything.
Then, they dive into the whirlwind of love bombing—that intense flood of affection early on in relationships. Some of the crew share personal stories of being love bombed, while others debate whether all the excitement at the beginning is always manipulative or simply genuine enthusiasm. The real takeaway: sustainable patterns matter more than initial fireworks.
In a no-holds-barred discussion, the hosts share their experiences with cheating—and how they’ve handled it. Some never retaliated, instead letting karma work its magic, while others believed in getting the ultimate “lick back” (revenge). The group shares a particularly chaotic story where a cheated-on partner exacted revenge by hooking up with their ex’s new partner—definitely one for the books.
The hosts also explore the idea of dating people who are already in relationships—an often self-validation driven “chase.” One of the hosts confesses that in their younger years, they didn’t care if someone was taken. The lesson learned? Karma always catches up with you.
Finally, the episode wraps up with a lighter topic—fashion in relationships. One host admits that while they love their partner’s individual style, sometimes they really need a little help with their wardrobe. After all, love is about helping each other grow, even if that means offering a little fashion advice. But hey, they also appreciate when their partner pulls off a killer outfit on their own.
