Favourite fictional couples

Welcome to Love Uncovered, the new podcast where we peel back the sheets to look at love from different angles.

In our first episode, Phil and I chat about who our favourite fictional couples are and why we love them. We also voice an unpopular opinion on a much-loved couple from The Office.

Who are your favourite couples from tv or movies? What draws to you a couple? Are all of our favourites problematic? Reach to us on twitter @Love_Uncovered and let us know. You can also find us on Twitter @Medusabeth and @baconhound.

Make sure you subscribe to Love Uncovered wherever you get your podcasts to never miss an episode!

Much love

Robyn and Phil

Uncovering Elizabeth and Trent

Sometimes on The One, it’s all super-cutesy romance, and other times there’s a surprising amount poop-talk. Today’s episode, featuring Trent and Elizabeth, has a little bit of everything. This is a couple who aren’t shy to open up about their struggles and how their love for each other makes it all work

Roles in relationships

When in a relationship, there are certain roles that we take on. Whether they are of a practical nature, like mowing the lawn or cooking dinner, or the things that we do every day, but maybe never take notice of, like being cheerleader or a  negotiator.

These relationship roles may be fluid, passing easily from one person to the next depending on the situation, or they might be deeply entrenched and rigid. They may adhere to expected gender roles, or go willfully against them.

On today’s special episode of The One, I’ve enlisted the help of ChrisHannahJohnDanica and, of course, Phil to each give their thoughts on the roles within their own relationships.

Uncovering Phil and Robyn

Sometimes 2 people just seem destined from the start. They develop a comfort and camaraderie with each other before even meeting face to face.

That’s how it felt for Phil and me. On this episode of The One, you’ll hear how I threw caution to the wind by going for a midnight ride with a weird dude, learn why nausea makes me feel nostalgic and you can weigh in on our contentious fork vs spoon debate.

As a special bonus, doing the hosting duties on this week’s episode is Adam Rozenhart, one of my favourite people and host of his own fantastic podcast, The Expats.

Uncovering Chris and Collete

A couple of years after meeting in an online, video game chat room, Colette jumped on a plane to meet Chris in Michigan. She ignored her friends’ concerns about meeting a “strange man” online, brushed off their disastrous first date via Skype, and hoped for the best.

What she got was a love story that contains passionate whisker burns, sage advice from a New York cabbie and a hotel room with a see-through bathroom wall.

In this week’s episode of The One, Chris and Colette share their story from chat room to storybook and all the miles in between.

Uncovering Tineke and Teyler

Have you ever had a moment in your life when you stopped and thought, “This moment, right now, could change my life forever.”

That’s exactly what Tineke thought when Teyler walked up and started talking to her as she waited in line.

Six months later, they were married!

Uncovering Kat and John

On this week’s episode of The One, we find out what happens when 2 theatrical individuals who both have an affinity for blood and gore meet and fall in love? As Kat and John show us, it’s a surprisingly shmoopy collaboration that results in all kinds of productions, including the incredibly popular and creepy cabin room at Escape City

Uncovering Marissa and Kreg

This week’s episode of The One will teach you how to woo a commitment-phobe. It’s simple, really. You just need a lot of patience, months of persistence, and a promise of marriage before your first date.

But if you ask Kreg, I know he’ll tell you that Marissa was more than worth the effort.

Uncovering Julian and Sarah

Just for a moment, I want you to imagine a romantic comedy, created by aliens specifically for their viewing pleasure…

Does it look a little like a burlesque dancer and an improviser going on nap dates and getting swarmed by mosquitos during a meteor shower?

Whether their relationship was constructed by aliens or not, that is the romantic reality for Sarah and Julian, my guests this week on The One.

You can see Julian on stage with Rapid Fire Theatre, and catch Sarah as her burlesque alter ego, Violette Coquette. To hear more of this great couple together, check out their new series Sports with Sarah and Jules.

Uncovering Hannah and David

Hannah and David’s love story sounds like it came straight of out an episode of the Andy Griffiths Show:

High school sweethearts, who grew up to be a police officer and a nurse, and had 4 children.

Thankfully, there is so much more to these two, and they approach their relationship with far less shmaltz than you would ever expect to see in Mayberry.
