Today’s episode is a very interesting mix of discussions!

The Sauce discuss intercultural and inter-religious relationships in our society and some of our experiences.

We also discuss the notion of ‘nice guys finish last’ when it comes to females and why we think this might be. Why are girls never attracted to the stereotypical ‘nice guy’? Is it true that all females know at least one guy that will worship the ground they walk on but are not attracted to them? Do women exploit the 'nice guys'?

Episode 004: The Taboo Of Turning 30

Episode 004: The Taboo Of Turning 30

Today's episode approaches the often negative stigma surrounding turning 30 and why there is so much emphasis on having your life together by 30.
