  • Miss bad dates

    Not sure what happened to bad dates, but this new updated version called intimacy coordinator is not where it’s at. A very boring show. I would look forward to bad dates each week with hilarious guests and stories, a lot that were relatable. This new version is a snoozer and I really like Joel but this is an unfollow from me.
