And now that’s out of the way: Host Joel Kim Booster welcomes veteran Bad Daters and comedy duo Syd and Olivia for an illuminating Speed Date, where they tell him which reality show moments keep them believing in romance, just how important the YouTube song about crack tasting like ribs is to Olivia, and Syd delivers a sonnet about her terrier’s after care.

  • Leaking Like A Hot Pocket (w/ Heather McMahan, Brandon Kyle Goodman, and Melissa Barrera)
    Nov 11 2024

    On a new episode of Bad Dates, host Joel Kim Booster welcomes comedians Heather McMahan and Brandon Kyle Goodman and actress Melissa Barrera to discuss their most iconic dating fiascos. Heather relates an explosive backstory in which she’s left hanging at Cirque du Soleil, then tells us about the intervention that brought her hobby to a grinding halt, Brandon has to contend with a hoarder, emphasis on that first syllable, and Melissa meets Hugh Jackman at the stage door, but that’s unfortunately not who she’s kissing goodnight.

Light hearted commiseration and comedy

As with any talkshow, the quality is largely dependent on the guests, so it does vary from week to week. Overall host Jameela Jamil is entertains with a disarming self deprecating style. Stories range from relatable to wild. Not the funniest podcast I’ve ever listened to, but I always walk away with a few more dopamine hits. Would 10/10 recommend replacing morning radio with this show for your commute.
