I love this podcast. I subscribed so that I could stay updated when they post and then they stopped posting. 🥺 I can tell that the creator put a lot of work into this podcast. Where as most people just turn on the mic and start rambling. I love the stories and just really hope they start posting again! ❤️

Super interesting concept and podcast. Hope they make more content.

What a genius podcast format & so sad to see it go. Please return!

I really like the concept of the podcast. There’s great potential. The thing that doesn’t work for me is hearing some of the dates and thinking “oh they really aren’t a match” and then the host doing the recap of the date and saying how great they thought the date was. I’m like did we listen to the same date? Like there’s less talk about what the person may be doing that is holding their dating life back and more talk about why they should’ve been a match when the main person didn’t like who they were set up with. Also some of the questions suggested when the conversation is running low are just not it. If someone on a date asked me to tell them something I wouldn’t normally say on a first date I’d be like 🥴 or what the last self help book I read was? It feels very forced and put on the spot like a job interview which is just not the vibe a first date should have. Also not everyone likes self help books.

Please bring back this wonderful podcast 🙏🙏🙏

Esther Perel is above reproach and a literal genius but the rest… Attachment theory isn’t being used appropriately. Are we really going to set up a doctor who likes wine with a recovering alcoholic who lives with his parents? And yet, too many of the same type of person. Very vocal fry, Bay Area or nyc yuppie, very stereotypical boring folks. There’s also a really big problem with this idea that we’re going to find people who are chronically single and put them on a blind date when we know that they’re bad at dating. The questions are nice but it’s not enough because pretending to be vulnerable isn’t the same thing as being vulnerable. When we have chronically single folks we can’t “fix” it by throwing more dates at them or telling them their patterns. THEY KNOW. Just like obese people know fewer calories will help them lose weight. It’s a lot deeper of a problem than that. The walls built since childhood aren’t coming down this way.

Listening. Interesting show. Would love to hear you do a combo show with my favorite episodic, serial podcast Community News by Paul and Sasha." They and you have some great dating stories.

One-note, homogeneous people on boring, talky dates commented-upon by naive and sometimes vapid hosts and a couple of un-trained or one-note “experts” (Esther Perel aside, amazing). Obvious bad attitudes or behaviors of the struggling dater-guests aren’t addressed with the person directly, just in post-production commentary. Just throw another person to date at them rather than address obvious shallowness or blind-spots? (The self-important Dr.? Khan??) Then, the pay-wall.

I’ve tried to listen to other dating podcasts but nothing really compares. You are all so natural and real in the way you engage with your matches. You are discovering moment to moment what works and doesn’t for your matches and yourselves. Your interactions with them and yourselves is what makes it work. Who you are as people comes across as strongly as who your matches are but you your revelations about them and yourselves are without judgement. Your personalities suit what you do perfectly. Looking forward to the next season. Worth the wait and I hope you figure out how to streamline the process so we get more. If not it’s because you’re so good.

I love this podcast. I've learned a lot about myself and dating. Using some of these lessons has helped my dating life. Can't wait for season 2!
