2/28/2021
We've reached the letters K for "Kittenfishing" and "Kissing" and the letter L for "Lovebombing" on this week's episode.

This week's love doctors are twitter scribes Delirious Dating Damsel (@Delirious_Dater), Siobhan (@shoobmac) and Bumbling Dad (@BumblingD) who are under the strict jurisdiction of the chief surgeon Jon (@voiceofsiri) - who suggests you take this podcast daily with a glass of water and report back if your condition remains unchanged.
