We’re coming at you early with a special Valentine’s Day episode!
If you’re looking for love, you’ve come to the wrong place. We cover the – very murky – origins of the holiday and why it tends to be the worst holiday of the year. And not for the reasons you probably think.
“Wouldn’t it be great if all Valentine’s Day gifts were filled with peanut butter.”
— Reese’s Pieces Valentine’s Day Ad
While some brands hit the mark, most brands aren’t purposed around this holiday. Even those brands we love like AdoreMe, who are primed for this day, can miss the mark almost entirely.
Listen to the episode online or wherever you listen to podcasts.

Valentine’s Day Your Way.
Spend the day however you want. Make it dirty. Keep it clean. The classic Shirley Temple can fill any void however you need it too.
Pour lemon-lime soda and grenadine over ice. Add vodka to make it dirty. Don’t forget the maraschino cherries, measure with your heart.
