Pour a cup or a glass, we got you… because this week we’re diving headfirst into the heartbreak, horror, and hilarity of modern dating.


Kyle shares a first date so bad he did a tactical 'leaving via the lavatory' and waved goodbye through the pub window (ouch). Casey reflects on her husband’s romantic streak, which involved taking her to the same restaurant he took all the other girls, and reveals he wants Brilliant Disguise by Bruce Springsteen (which he insists is called The Lonely Man) played at his funeral - Cheery.


Listener stories including:


  • A man who compared his date to his mum and called her “fit”.. yea we know ick!
  • A woman who got served a Tesco meal deal as a romantic night in
  • A gluten-intolerant commitment-phobe who ate olives and stared
  • And a fire alarm set off by a vape that somehow led to true love


Also in this episode:


  • Robbie Williams healing through thunder and wine
  • Red flag spotting on Tinder (if he’s got a bum bag and crossed arms, run)
  • Pride parades, public nudity, and why Kyle draws the line at men dressed as dogs.
  • And Casey proudly telling her husband he’s “not very memorable in a room”


It’s honest. It’s ridiculous. It’s romantic. Kind of.


Join us, swipe in, lower your expectations, and remember, you deserve more than a Chicken Caesar wrap...unless you're Kyle.
