51. Heartbreak Hot Seat

Interstates & Heartbreak has its most surprising guest yet, as I relinquish hosting duties and become the interview subject. High school friends Will Rippetoe and David Zeff unabashedly probe into my dating past, present, and preferences, covering topics like my unmatched love of female strippers, what makes someone a f***boy/girl, and a time when I myself was worthy of the f***girl title.

48. 10s Seeking An 11

This week I interview Emily Hacker, host of OK So, I Met This Guy podcast, about the fundamental question that inspired Interstates & Heartbreak – Is dating in LA the worst? We unpack the dating challenges specific to a place best described as “a city of 10s seeking an 11,” including the unavoidable male archetypes, why people are more likely to cancel date plans, and the very real struggle of traffic when you’re attempting to traverse the city for back to back dates.

45. Mr. Worldwide

This week’s episode of Interstates & Heartbreak is best enjoyed with an Aperol Spritz, because we’re going to Italy! I interview Rafael Di Furia about his decision to leave America in favor of a European lifestyle, and his subsequent experience dating women spanning over a dozen different nationalities. Tune in to hear us dish about the good (no more dating app quotes about The Office), the bad (one particularly awkward interaction involving a girlfriend’s grandma and a kitchen knife), and the ugly (the ever-present fear of falling victim to a passport hunter) of dating as an ex-pat.
