Jana Hocking
We're brought up with the fairytale that you will meet your Prince Charming in your 20's, fall madly in love and live happily ever after. So what happens when you find yourself in your 30's and oh so single?
You get in some experts and friends and document the trials and tribulations of dating in a world run by dating apps, ghosting and a host of far too many options.
I've dived deep into the archives of my chat's with Triple M's Danny Lakey to find you some robust advice when it comes to successfully sliding into the DM's of someone you fancy.
Plus, when it comes to bedroom shenanigans... what are the do's and don'ts??
We share all! In fact... probably a little too much.
What makes someone a Narcissist? Dr Lurve shares the signs that you might be dating one, and what to do if you are!
Comedian Merrick Watts joins me on the podcast this week to compare notes! He dated in the 90's and 00's when there was no such thing as a dating app and people actually had to be brave and approach someone in real life. The horror! He's now married and missed the perils of the dating apps and everything else associated with dating in this modern world. Tune in for plenty of LOL's and an interesting perspective.
We've all gone through a dating phase at some stage and mine taught me that I don't have the goods to make it as a WAG. I list the 5 reasons why I'll never date a footy player again. Plus Danny and I discuss the saucy antics of our Premiere. Since when did politics turn into a MAFS episode?!
What happens when your date gets blind drunk on a very first date? Oh you reflect! On the cringe-worthy times you've done it yourself. Jana and Jess share stories of their own bad first dates and the drinks we wished we had swapped for water. A must-listen for anyone waking up on a Saturday morning with hangover regrets.
Tinder has become the MySpace of the dating world. So where should you be looking? What are the solid 'Do's' and 'Don'ts'? What's the secret body code signal that lets you know if your date has checked out? We don't hold back. We also share the most horrific dating app dates we've been on - you may need a stiff drink for this one!
Warning: this episode is rude, crude and delightfully honest!
Danny Lakey from Triple M's saucy late-night show (titled after his own name "The Danny Lakey Show") joins me this week as we look at two very important topics in the dating world:
- Why do blokes love sending dick pics?
- Why dating multiple people can actually IMPROVE your love life
Danny Lakey brings a wealth of experience and honest answers to these topics, and who better to ask than an actual bloke! Perhaps listen to this one with headphones in. Trust me.
What's it like to date some who could be mistaken for your Dad? Well, in this week's episode we find out! I once dated a guy 20 years older than me and it came with a whole HEAP of trials and unexpected tribulations! My lovely guest and friend, Jess Eva, ended up getting engaged to her old gent and spills the beans on all things age related. Be warned it gets a little bit rude and for some reason we get onto the topic of low-hanging testicles, but with Jess you never know where the conversation will go! Enjoy xx
One day you're flirting your way through your 20's and the next you've turned 36 and find yourself oh-so-single! So I thought it was time to take it seriously and get some answers to the question - why the heck am I still single?! Turns out I'm not the only one! A psychotherapist, Kaylene Wynn, who joins me for this chat explains that many of her clients are women between 30-40 years old asking the exact same thing. So let's sort it out together!
Plot twist!! I've changed the name and will be delving deep each week into my news.com.au articles that document the trials and tribulations of dating in your 30's! (or at any age, really).
