Our guest is Marina Adshade, an economist ([ Ссылка ]) who looks at how the market affects our love lives. She’s the author of Dollars and Sex: How Economics Influences Sex and Love ([ Ссылка ]) and teaches at the University of British Columbia’s Vancouver School of Economics.
Also, Vass and Katrina talk about the war room tactics Vass used to find her (now) husband.
