The discussion initially focused on society’s perception of significant age differences in relationships, sparked by Anne Hathaway’s new film, The Idea of You, where her character, a mom in her 40s, is romantically involved with a young musician in her 20s.

Goldberg, along with her co-hosts, delved into the topic of age differences in relationships, expressing her nonchalance towards the matter. She stated, “Your age is not what will bring me into your arms. It’s not your age that bothers me unless you’re 18, in which case I can’t.”
