The first episode of the year features OKCupid success stories Megan Ladd and Will Rippetoe, returning for a joint episode! They share the anatomy of a good profile, what went into crafting their own OKCupid profiles, and what actually proved effective in attracting each other. We then dive into the creation of my own profile, which leads to debate over whether it’s appropriate to compare myself to Kobe, questioning how weird is TOO weird in a partner, and the realization that I may be a golddigger. This episode is the perfect motivation for anyone who resolved to get back on the apps or revamp their dating game in the new year. Alternatively, those entering 2021 with a partner can enjoy some renewed gratitude through the knowledge that the copious struggles of online dating are now behind you.
