Young Love Tropes and the 30-Something
On this episode, Kourtney and Clarissa are looking as some well-known and beloved YA and young love romance tropes from books, movies, and more to see how they stack up to the realities of getting older, real-life relationship experiences, and the cynicism that comes with years and being scorned at least once or twice. We love reading them in books and seeing them on screen, but sometimes enemies-to-lovers and secret relationships don't end up so sweet in the cold light of day or past age 25. Plus, a trip back to 2008 for some classic examples.Disclaimer: This is an entertainment podcast and is not meant to negatively impact any person, business, or institutions.
