NEEDS TO BE STUDIED PODCAST
Welcome to Needs to be Studied, the podcast where we unapologetically dive into the wild world of sex, mental health, dating, and relationships. Hosted by the one and only Billy The Bad Guy, we're here to explore all the things your momma warned you about—but with way more laughs and a lot less judgment.
Each week, we bring on guests who spill the tea on their love lives, mental breakdowns, and all the juicy details in between. No topic is off-limits, and no story is too wild. Whether you’re dodging red flags, navigating a situationship, or just trying to keep your sanity in check, we’ve got you covered.
We’re here to remind you that no one has it all figured out, and that’s perfectly okay. So grab your favorite drink, sit back, and get ready to laugh, cringe, and maybe even learn a thing or two.

Everybody got rules in dating… but let’s be real — are they actually protecting your relationship, or slowly killing it?
This week on Needs To Be Studied, we getting into the truth about relationship rules, boundaries, and control — and why some of y’all “standards” might be the exact reason your love life not working.
We talking:
• when boundaries turn into control 👀
• why too many rules kill chemistry
• the difference between protecting your peace vs sabotaging your relationship
• are “no texting after 10pm” type rules actually toxic?
• do healthy relationships even need rules… or just trust?
And yeah… we getting a little messy:
• Are people using “boundaries” as an excuse to control their partner?
• If you need a rule for everything… do you even trust them?
• And be honest… are YOUR rules pushing people away?
If you’ve ever said “I don’t play that” in dating… this episode might humble you just a little bit 😭
