Are magic tricks a good way to chat someone up? Kira Kosarin certainly thinks so - she tells us about some of her worst dates, as well as the ways NOT to chat her up if you see her around. Munroe Bergdorf and Josh Pieters are in the studio with Luke Franks and Arielle Free and tell us their stories of being catfished and ghosted, as well as why Munroe has gone off men completely. Not that that stops Josh trying his luck...

A rescue mission in LA involving a taxi driver and a whole band. That’s one of the stories the New Hope Club boys tell Arielle Free and Luke Franks - we also hear why Rhys can never go to the cinema again, why Arielle has lost her voice PLUS a man gets chased around Scarborough by a drag queen. Don’t say we don’t do variety on this podcast.

It’s hard to guess why a dog’s anal glands would be part of a date, but for one of this week’s guests they were. Marnie and Russell also discuss drowning in champagne and dirty knickers with Luke Franks and Arielle Free, and to cap it all off, we have the definitive ‘sliding into the DMs’ story. Plus, Charlotte De Carle’s worst date story, which involves many tears, awkward spooning and a trip to Paris.

Cuban Heels, being called 'daddy', and egg on someone’s face - Luke Franks and Arielle Free hear stories about all these and more as this week’s guests tell us their awful dating experiences, plus Ashley James tells us about the ‘worst day of her life’ (spoiler, it was a very, very bad date).

Why did Jamie Laing end up wearing his mum’s clothes on a date? And how did Lewys escape from the most boring date in the world? They spill the beans to Arielle Free and Luke Franks, as well as revealing far too much about their own dating abilities. You’ll find out why Michael McIntyre has featured in Jamie’s sex life in the past.

Picking up dates in a local shop, throwing up over a balcony and some confusion between a tuxedo and a wetsuit - all this is on the menu with Luke and Arielle this week as they go through some of your best stories. We’ll be back in a couple of weeks with a new series with some great guests too!
