Welcome back to Telling Tinder Tales, the comedy podcast that dives into the funniest, weirdest, and most awkward dating stories—recorded live at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival! 🎭💘
In this episode, your hosts Chris O’Neill and Thomasin Lockwood are joined by comedian Kevin O'Brian, who shares a bizarre dating tale with a twist: His date kept bringing her sister along… There were Wetherspoons, wine, and absolutely no rounds paid back. And somehow—it led to marriage?! (And later... divorce.) Yorkshire meets Merseyside dry wit in this unforgettable story of romance, awkwardness, and financial risk assessment.
We also explore: 🇮🇪 The sacred Irish round system (never violate it!) 🥐 The irresistible gravitational pull of Greggs 💬 Kevin’s Fringe show: The ABC of One-Liner Jokes, 151 punchy jokes daily at 4:40 PM at The Pilgrim (Cowgate)
