Be honest - when you're traveling, how many days do you last without looking for your comfort food? Of course culinary adventure is fun, but there's something comforting about eating food you've grown up consuming. As we're chatting this time, we're taking this idea and asking each other, what are the things that bring you a sense of home?

Are first-time experiences the most memorable? If it's a bad experience, is it hardest to overcome the first time and does it get easier? Conversely, if it's a good one, do you tend to remember only the first time it happens?

It's an age-old question.. are you a glass-half-full or glass-half-empty type of person? How does this understanding impact our day-to-day life? Is there an advantage of adopting a mindset that's not necessarily your natural predisposition?

The best games are those that could either make or break your friendships, so let's play a game and see if ours would endure! Just kidding. We're still good, but we had fun learning more about each other's tendency in this game for sure. Have you guys ever played this game with your friends or loved ones? How did that go?

Noone's perfect. How cliche does this sound and how many times have you heard it in your life? Yet in the world of imperfection, we find it hard sometimes to deal with other people's flaws. Why can't they just do things the right way! In those moments of frustration, we're here for you.

When it comes to etiquettes around hosting someone and being a guest, how far would you go to make the other party comfortable? If you're playing host, how much preparation do you put into making sure that your guests feel at home? And if you're the guest, how do you make sure that you get invited back?

How often do you hear people say "this is just how I am"? Or better yet, how often do you say it yourself? Don't get us wrong, we absolutely support the idea of knowing and loving ourselves. We all need to hear that sometimes and give ourselves some validation. That said, where do we draw the line between appreciating self and not having a growth mindset?

Of course we realize that it depends on the situation, but hear who's most forgiving among the bunch. Midway through this episode it seemed like this question was applied very differently in friendships for guys and girls -- at least according to Dan!

Some things in life are better left unshared. Do you agree with this sentiment, or are you the nosy type who would rather know about everything that's going on around you? There's no right or wrong answer on this one obviously, it is all about personal preferences. But which one are you? We just.. want to know LOL.

If we were to play a word association game, what are some of the keywords you would use to describe yourself? Whether we like it or not, some of our characteristics would leave an imprint on others, which would then become our 'brand'. So how important is it to cultivate your personal brand?
