  • So helpful, one of my favourite podcasts!

    I listen to this podcast religiously! It’s such easy listening. I love all practical advice, dating dilemmas and I loved the episodes where the listeners talked about their dating experience too. The guest speakers are often fun and engaging and each episode brings something new. Talia normalises the ups and downs of dating and keeps it real. As someone who got out of a twelve relationship in her 30s, I had pretty much zero experience of dating as an adult. This podcast, as well as the instagram... more

  • Good Advice

    Hi I like the general content but I do have one issue. Quite often, like in episode 293, I’ll hear the woman talk about a dinner date and that things went well but they knew the guy wasn’t the one for them then say he paid and they went home. Women in this day and age should insist on going half as paying for dinner soon mounts up for the guy. If you know he’s not the one for you then it’s even worse to let him pay.

  • Well done podcast

    I think this podcast and host has evolved. The advice makes sense and is actionable. I also had issues with a situationship that I eventually went no contact with, and then met my solid current relationship of 2 years. I’ve listened to her advice recently, to understand my past attachment to the situationship, after the fact, and it is solid. Well done, Talia!

  • A Must-Listen for Daters!

    As a 49-year-old single parent coming out of a long marriage, stepping into modern dating has honestly felt like landing on another planet. The last time I dated, apps didn’t even exist — and navigating this new world has been equal parts overwhelming, confusing, and unexpectedly hopeful.

    Talia’s guidance on dating intentionally has been such a grounding force for me. I deeply appreciate the thoughtful, compassionate, and practical way she approaches relationships and connection. Instead of fee... more

  • Too many commercials

    Too many commercials and reruns Love Talia but maybe she should switch to once a week for fresher material

    The amount of commercials have gotten too distracting and makes her cred questionable when they get written in like real dating advice

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

310. When They Seem Interested But Their Actions Don’t Match (Dating Dilemmas)
Q: How can I feel better about myself and get unstuck from this?
Koren recommends recognizing the unhealthy communication patterns, allowing the feelings without judgment, limiting exposure to the ex, and reframing the experience as an early ending that prevented a deeper relationship with someone whose conflict style was a poor fit. She says healing should not depend on the ex apologizing or taking accountability.
310. When They Seem Interested But Their Actions Don’t Match (Dating Dilemmas)
Q: Are these red flags that he's not serious about me, or am I expecting too much too soon? And how do I finally have the honest conversation about where we stand when he keeps avoiding it?
Koren says the listener should focus less on guessing his seriousness and more on whether his behavior and work-first lifestyle fit what she wants. She recommends clearly asking where the relationship is going and saying what an official relationship would look like to her. If he avoids the conversation, she suggests deciding whether the connection is worth continuing.
311. Former Tinder Sociologist Explains What We Get Wrong About Dating Apps w/ Dr. Jess Carbino
Q: How long is reasonable to date to see whether she feels a deeper connection, and why did she want to date him again if she was unsure about the spark?
Carbino suggests exploring what the woman means by spark and whether fear or other internal reservations make vulnerability difficult. She considers about three months reasonable and encourages both people to reflect on what keeps them invested.
311. Former Tinder Sociologist Explains What We Get Wrong About Dating Apps w/ Dr. Jess Carbino
Q: What can AI do to help with dating, and how can it hurt?
Carbino says AI can assist with tasks such as analyzing large datasets or selecting effective profile photos when users remain informed and in control. She is concerned when it takes over messaging, conflict resolution, or other interactions that help people gather information, communicate, and reflect.
307. Stop Dating Like You’re Running Out of Time w/ Alex Daly
Q: What are your tips for breaking this pattern and start meeting men who treat me the way I want and deserve?
Daly suggests releasing pressure to reach a specific relationship outcome and dating outside one's usual type. Koren adds that the listener can practice identifying red flags, noticing who reciprocates, and reflecting on her own choices without blaming herself.
