E180: Men vs. Women: Cracking the Communication Code

Teaching Keating with Weston and Molly Kieschnick

In this week’s episode of Teaching Keating, Molly (aka Mo) and Weston dive deep into the hilarious and frustrating world of communication between men and women. From unraveling why 'I’m fine' never means 'I’m fine' to debating the fixer vs. listener dynamic, they explore the quirks, misunderstandings, and patterns that define their 16-year relationship—and probably yours too! Expect relatable stories, witty banter, and a few 'aha' moments as they tackle the age-old question: Why do we miss each other so often in conversation?

In This Episode:

• Molly explains why Weston’s solutions don’t always hit the mark—and why she doesn’t want them to!
• Weston confesses to feeling like he’s solving a Rubik’s Cube when decoding Molly’s thoughts.
• The couple unpacks the art of 'reading the room' and why 'nothing' is never just nothing.

A hilarious debate on active listening vs. silent listening—tennis match style!
