In this episode of Tonight’s Conversation, live from Chicago, the panel unpacks the 80/20 rule in relationships—why chasing the missing 20% can cost you the 80% you already have—and how self-awareness shapes what truly matters in love. They dive into wants vs. needs, evolving deal-breakers, and whether you should “build” a partner. The conversation gets spicy with debates on hall passes, dating with big age gaps, and why some people demand more than they offer. From faith and dating to generational shifts in relationship expectations, this episode is equal parts hilarious, unfiltered, and thought-provoking.
