yep, boyfriends are still embarrassing (ft Chanté Joseph)

About this episode

Omggg hi!  We’re so, so haaapppy to be joined today by the brilliant writer and social commentator, Chanté Joseph, everybodyyyyy!  Late last year, Chanté’s viral Vogue article: Is having a boyfriend embarrassing now?, completely took off. Over night, Chanté gained hundreds of thousands of followers and was met with some pretty wild backlash for her honest thoughts.   In today’s episode, we talk to Chanté about the public’s response to her article, plus her take on situationships, heteropessimism and how to date in 2026 without rage. LOL. Then, we hear from a Shooshie who is desperate for her partner to cheat, so she can walk away from their decade-long relationship. Chanté has many, many thoughts.  And, here’s a link to her new column with Glamour UK.  Thank you so much to Garnier for making this episode of Everybody Has A Secret possible.
