  <description>This episode, we chat with attendees who met their partners at con and are still rolling initiative together years later.
Our guests this month are Josh Duart, Tyra Burton, Lauren &amp;amp; Nikki Evallen-Muller and Kristi &amp;amp; Justin Grub.  Each of them (along with one of our hosts, Jen!) met their partners at Dragon Con.
Were they looking for love at con? Meeting through happy accidents? We hear their meet-cutes and more on episode 2.
