174: The Great American Romances of Barack + Michelle & Donald + Melania ❤️‍🔥 🇺🇸

Today’s deep dive is a double feature: the love story of not just one, but two of our US Presidents and their wives. This episode focuses very little on politics and a lot on love. No matter which side of the aisle you find yourself, buckle in and enjoy these two love stories. Listen in to hear all about how Barack and Michelle Obama met, fell in love, endured eight years as the First Family, and found each other once again outside of the White House. Next, hear all about Donald and Melania Trump’s love story, which has the common thread of enduring harsh criticism and media speculation, all the while remaining by each other’s sides.  Lauren and Chan have a fantastic announcement!
