It’s cuffing season: the time of year where the weather cools down and folks look for a warm body to cuddle up with. But we’re getting into some of the less warm and fuzzy aspects of dating. For the next few weeks on It’s Been a Minute, we’re kicking off cuffing season with some of the big questions about dating in our culture right now.
This week – The song “Looking for a Man in Finance” went super viral on TikTok this year, and yeah, it’s fun. But does it speak to people’s broader desires to find someone who’s more than comfortable financially?
Host Brittany Luse is joined by Wailin Wong, co-host of NPR’s The Indicator, and Reema Khrais, host of Marketplace’s This Is Uncomfortable. They discuss what people are really looking for from a man in finance… and whether dating up in class is even possible.
This episode was produced by Liam McBain with additional support from Barton Girdwood. This episode was edited by Jasmine Romero. Our VP of Programming is Yolanda Sangweni.
