Yes, I’m Leonardo Nam’s sidekick in this conversation about relationships. Here’s the spiel: Sexy Quirky Love is a podcast about relationships. Topics: Pick Up Lines and their importance.

The idea to do this podcast came out of our original podcast, which was meant to be a simple interview, but the relationship talk became the most interesting segment and knowing that Leo gives dating advice to his friends, the idea of a podcast came out of it.
