Love Hurts, Work Sucks: Comedians On Conflict & Communication is unique. A show tailored for couples and singles alike, it aims to entertain and enhance your communication skills in both personal and professional life. Comedians Shayne Hunter and Chris Pucillo call out audience members for their avoidant behaviours and dive into the contradictions often found in dating profiles, like claiming to seek a long-term relationship while pursuing something far more casual. This openness adds a relatable, heartfelt dimension. Through skits, they explore various communication styles: passive, passive-aggressive, aggressive, and assertive (assertive is apparently the only style controlled by the frontal lobe rather than the penis brain). 

The performance could have been elevated by incorporating more physicality rather than relying solely on seated dialogue with no props or movement. Audience involvement brings comedy gold, though, with shared stories of communication struggles and love mishaps leading to giggles. More of this would have made the experience more immersive and impactful. However, despite missed opportunities for open dialogue, the blend of practical insights and humour make for a fun, insightful way to learn better conflict resolution skills.
