BONUS ENCORE: The Tinder Chronicles and the Horror and Humor of Modern Dating

This very special bonus encore episode featuring the horrors of modern dating celebrates the publication of my satirical novel-in-stories, The Tinder Chronicles! First dates can be hell… or hilarious. Dating can be horrible, but the right attitude can turn even the worst date into something memorable. From wannabe rappers to semi-pro golfers, from naughty ventriloquists to unicycle-riding parrot dads, this novel-in-stories showcases the humor of modern dating in over fifty snappy, witty vignettes—most of which are based on true stories. It’s safe to say dating today is very different compared to dating a few decades ago. The introduction of smartphones and dating apps has radically changed how we meet people--and not always for the better. Today’s special guest, Dr. Camille Holiner, and I both met our husbands on dating apps, and we’re here to discuss the good, the bad, and the ugly of the dating process. We also have a bonus mystery guest who shares some hilarious, horrifying, and spicy stories from his dating app experience!

Receiving Intercepts with T.J. Payne

T.J. Payne is the author of the smash hit INTERCEPTS, which has sold over 95,000 copies and has had over 25 million page reads on Kindle Unlimited since its publication in 2019. He’s also the author of THE VENUE and IN MY FATHER’S BASEMENT. Born and raised in Portland, OR, he moved to Hollywood with plans to write romantic comedies, but as he worked on his craft, he found his stories drifting toward more sinister themes--and aren’t we all so grateful he found his home in horror! Join us as we discuss the hardcover release of INTERCEPTS, going from self-publishing to traditional publishing, TV and movie writing, and relationships as the heart of horror stories.
