Love Update

Love Update

Love Update, hosted by Shayna Elliot (MC ‘21) and Auguste White (SY ‘21), is a Yale podcast where people get the chance to tell their love stories: from harrowing tinder tales, to friendaversaries, to soul mates and everything in between. In the style of popular podcast Modern Love, this show is based entirely on audience story submissions and read by different members of the Yale community. Love Update seeks to surface stories from all corners of our campus. This isn't an advice column or a gossip hotline, we want to hear reflections, memories, and botched-attempts at love past and present. This is a platform for depositing and acquiring perspectives and experiences with love: ephemeral and everlasting, messy and mature. We can’t wait to hear what you have to say.

Congratulations, You’ve Got Mail! Or, more accurately, since it isn’t the 90’s and you aren’t Meg Ryan, “You have a new match!” This week's topic is dating apps. Why do we use them?
