Girls Gotta Eat is not a podcast about diets or fine dining, although it might sound like it from the title. The Girls Gotta Eat podcast, or GGE for short, is a comedy podcast about sex and dating. Hosts Rayna Greenberg and Ashley Hesseltine get personal by sharing their own experiences. Ashley is a writer, influencer, and standup comic. Rayna is a writer and blogger with a passion for food. She also founded a website called One Hungry Jew. On it, she shares restaurant guides and her favorite food. On the podcast, the two talk about dating life on social media. It's optimistic and hilarious. It's also valuable for anyone experiencing difficulties with sex or dating.
The podcast is not all about dating dramas in this series, though. In one episode, they interview the couple behind The Skinny Confidential podcast. What started as a blog and book by Lauryn Bosstick led to a podcast series with her husband and cohost, Michael. They chat on Girls Gotta Eat about how they met, what it's like working together, and even the details of their sex lives.
There is also plenty of participation from the Girls Gotta Eat podcast listeners. One regular segment has the title "Is this weird?" In this segment, they read emails from listeners. They write about experiencing something strange when dating. It's not about shaming anyone but building everyone's confidence. In one episode, they talk about being a "mama's boy." Therapist Whitney Goodman joins to share her views on the mother and son relationship. Not only do listeners get to hear from a psychotherapist on the subject. They also get to listen to a funny story from a listener about a birthday dinner that became known as "Clam Gate."
Girls Gotta Eat is a funny female-oriented podcast that everyone can enjoy.
