Emma is joined by comedian Gibran Saleem, to talk about teenage social anxiety, skincare for men, and how to catch men up on their emotional intelligence. In the Why Do Men? Segment, Gibran answers a listener who wonders why men don't ask how their girlfriends are feeling - or maybe it's just her boyfriend. Then, Emma asks Gibran anything, from taking a pickup artistry seminar, to navigating your way out of the friend zone, and why soup is a bad first date meal. And finally, they wrap with a lightning round about moms, ball trimmers, and how to not creep women out.
