This week, we’re giving you a treat of one whole hour of just the Schmuckgirls! They discuss the continuation of engagement season and the start of wedding season. They also talk about the new Instagram verification, kosher hechsher drama, the holiness of the month of Nissan and debate how difficult it is to keep Passover. Libby and Marla also share how their own Jewish identity has grown since they first started the podcast. The girls go on to discuss immediate fireworks vs. a slow burn when dating, and how to know how long you should continue to date someone. They also talk about the lasting effects of the pandemic and people’s abilities to be social digitally vs. IRL. Marla and Libby go on to debate how difficult a relationship should be before recognizing that maybe this person isn’t for you, the importance of your partner being in your life but not being your life and of how to avoid being jealous of your friends.
