77. Dating Like a Main Character w/Case Kenny

Case Kenny of New Mindset, Who Dis? podcast joins me to discuss how reckless fuckboy / fuckgirl accusations, main character energy, and other dating buzzwords are impacting our love lives. He breaks down ways to own your standards and sniff out a legitimate fuckperson in the process without being labeled as “crazy.” Finally, we explore why we’re quicker to label someone a sociopath than to reflect on what we’re actually bringing to the table (or as Kelis would say, “to the yard”).

76. Tryna Meet Your Mama On a Sunday

This week’s solo episode touches on the respective struggles of celebrating Thanksgiving both single and coupled. I reflect on each time I’ve met a boyfriend’s parent(s), including finding the right balance of alcohol consumption, and the meeting that was never supposed to take place at all.

74. Un-HINGEd Dating w/Ilana Dunn

Ilana Dunn from Seeing Other People podcast shares her perspectives around online dating as a former Hinge employee (pre- Roses and voice prompts). We expose ill-advised dating behaviors driven by insecurity, like FBI-level social stalking and future-tripping after one date, and contrast what it feels like to finally date someone who you don’t have to consult your group chat about. Ilana also opens up about the difficulties behind cohosting her podcast with someone she previously dated, and finally puts to rest the age old question of whether or not exes can truly be friends.

66. Swipe Economy

Roland Toney, brother-in-law of former guest David Zeff, shares his perspective on dating apps as an elder millennial who’s never used them. We analyze the dating app economics that favor fuckboy behaviors and undermine efforts to find a long-term partner, like A/B profile testing (evaluating which pictures/prompts have the highest success rate), level of investment (commitment to people you meet on an app vs. IRL), and paradox of choice (endless profiles to swipe through).
