Pina Coladas & Political Clashes: Finding Love in a Polarized World with Louie Felix | Ask a Matchmaker Podcast w Matchmaker Maria

Matchmaker Maria hosts from Mexico! where she’s attending the 12th Annual Matchmakers Alliance Conference. Joining her is guest co-host Louis Felix, a seasoned matchmaker with over 20 years in the industry. Together, they reminisce about the early days of the conference and its mission to bring matchmakers together in a collaborative, supportive community—something Maria co-founded with fellow matchmakers Michelle Jacoby and Laurie Berzack.

Beyond the industry insights, Maria and Louis dive into the shifting landscape of dating in a politically charged era. With the recent election still fresh, they share candid thoughts on how political divides are affecting modern dating dynamics. Answering listener questions, Maria and Louis discuss strategies for navigating political differences on dates and whether single-issue voters are worth the effort. They wrap up the topic with perspectives within political affiliations, showing how even people with the same voting record can hold differing core values. This honest exchange opens the floor to listeners, reminding everyone to keep an open mind in both personal and political connections. 

They move on to another listener asking, if it’s wise to date a man who’s married but in the process of divorce. Maria and Louie offer straightforward advice: tread carefully. Maria shares her thoughts on dating separated individuals, explaining how important clarity is. If you’re seeking a long-term commitment, Maria advises against dating someone not fully divorced. Louie adds some humor by sharing a personal family anecdote, and the two wrap up with laughter, ready to enjoy the sunshine after a rain-soaked stay.
