Description

This episode dives into the origins of online dating and uncovers how the road from early computer matchmakers to modern swipe culture created the perfect ecosystem for the fuckboy era.

It’s a fast, funny, brutally honest look at how we got here — and why today’s dating landscape feels like both a breakthrough and a biohazard.
