If you're feeling jaded by money, politics and modern dating … you're not the only one. Conor Kerr's new novella, Beaver Hills Forever, follows the everyday lives of four Métis people in Edmonton. The odds are stacked against them and life is exhausting, but each person finds meaning in the small moments and the beauty of life in the Canadian Prairies. Beaver Hills Forever is a poetic love letter to the city of Edmonton and the power of community … and yes, the perils of dating apps make an appearance too. This week, Conor joins Mattea to talk about the unique structure of the book, how he battles his own cynicism and what it really means to strive for a better life. Liked this conversation?

This new dating trick might help you too!

Some of the wealthiest women in 19th- and early-20th-century England built their fortunes on Caribbean slavery. That wealth didn't just buy land and luxury — it made them highly sought-after wives. British men married into slavery money, and entire families secured status, estates, and political power because enslaved Africans had already paid the price. In this episode of Trey's Table, we unpack how slavery shaped wealth, gender, and marriage in Britain — long after abolition.

"After the match is made, it can switch from a relationship to a relationship butler."  Dating apps, like a lot of other technology can be harmful to people. Developers who put profit before people are apt to use algorithms, and now AI, to manipulate people into creating profits. The strongest relationships are built on real alignment, not endless choice or surface-level attraction. What if an app was designed to understand people deeply and adapt over time? It would increase the odds of meaningful connection. The core principle here is simple: fewer matches, better matches, and continued support after the introduction.  Eric McHugh joins us to introduce Dataing, a 'data driven' dating app. Built to help move beyond swipe culture, profiles are generated and refined using real-world signals rather than self-promotion, allowing compatibility to surface naturally. Once two people connect, the app evolves into a relationship concierge. From suggesting dates to helping navigate moments of friction, Dataing is designed to support the relationship itself, unlike some dating apps that see the success of their app as a direct threat to profits.  Eric is a serial entrepreneur focused on building tools that improve how people connect and live. Through Dataing and its concierge layer, CupidAI, his work centers on making deep, meaningful relationships more accessible—by designing technology that serves people, not attention metrics.  Learn more & connect:  https://dataing.io/https://www.linkedin.com/company/dataing1/  https://apps.apple.com/us/app/dataing/id6478563884  Raymond Aaron has shared his vision and wisdom on radio and television programs for over 40 years.

Dear Listener, are you exhausted by the endless swipe-and-scroll cycle of dating apps? Do you wish potential matches could get to know the real you—not just a few photos and a character-limited bio? Well then, I'd like you to meet my friend, Date-Me Doc.Date-Me Docs are standalone documents (typically housed in Google Docs or Notion) that live outside dating apps and give you space to share who you truly are, what you're looking for, and why you'd make a great partner.But here's the twist: we believe creating a Date-Me Doc is valuable even if you never share it with anyone. Why? Because the process forces you to get crystal clear on what you want—and as we like to say, love favors the clear-sighted. That clarity will serve you whether you're swiping on Hinge, chatting someone up at a coffee shop, or asking friends to set you up.In this episode, we walk you through our recommended structure, how to use photos effectively, why vulnerability attracts (not repels!) the right people, and how to share your Date-Me Doc with cuties you meet in real life (Josh even role-plays it for you!).If you're craving a slower, more intentional approach to dating—one focused on depth over dopamine—this episode is for you.Key Takeaways00:00 Introduction and Overview 01:21 What is a Date-Me Doc? 05:21 Why should you create a Date-Me doc? 15:45 How to write a Date-Me Doc 22:22 Crafting Your Unique 'Me' Section 26:19 Describing Your Ideal Partner in the 'You' Section 29:29 Creating the 'We' Section and Final TipsResources and linksTired of Dating Apps, Some Turn to ‘Date-Me Docs' - NY TimesDate Me DirectoryDate-Me Doc Template - coming soon!Ep. 15 - Online Dating 102: Perfecting Your Profile & PhotosEp. 2 - What to look for in a long-term partnerDownloadable Guide: What to look for in a long-term partnerHave a question or comment?

Because the problem isn't that you're doing dating apps wrong . . . it's that most people use them in a way that drains energy, kills momentum, and makes real connection far less likely. If you want dating to feel lighter, clearer, and more intentional, listen to this before you swipe again.►► Set Yourself Up to Attract Real Love This Year.

Do you ever want to approach someone… but freeze because you're scared you'll come off creepy, awkward, or like you're bothering them?In this episode, we break down why this fear is so common and why it doesn't mean there's something wrong with you. Most of the time, your mind is entering into fight-or-flight and turning a simple moment into a threat… which keeps you stuck in your head, overthinking, and doing nothing.We talk about what you're really afraid of when you fear rejection, how to shift from “trying to get something” to simply creating a genuine moment, and how small actions can rebuild your confidence.This episode will help you change your life by changing the way you handle rejection, so you can approach people with more presence, self-trust, and ease.John Keegan is NYC's #1 dating coach for men.Timestamps: (00:00) Introduction(00:44) Changing Your Mindset: From Taking to Giving(02:43) The Power of Presence and Listening(06:21) Building Momentum Through Small Actions(08:29) The Importance of Self-Love and Acceptance(18:03) Navigating Modern Dating Challenges(31:39) The Hero's Journey in Relationships(37:56) The Impact of Dating Apps on Relationships(41:09) The Importance of Financial Stability in Dating(41:57) Being a Rock: Emotional Stability in Relationships(47:37) Embracing Authenticity and Self-Love(51:00) Overcoming Life's Challenges and Finding Confidence(57:42) Journey to Becoming a Dating Coach(01:04:55) Final Thoughts and AdviceGet the FREE Move Your Mind Masterclass here:go.nickbracks.com/moveyourmindAccess FREE Move Your Mind training here:https://go.moveyourmind.io/trainingConnect with Nick:Instagram: https://instagram.com/nickbracksWebsite: http://nickbracks.comEmail: contact@nickbracks.comConnect with John:https://theawakenedlifestyle.com/ Hosted on Acast.

Dating apps are broken — and AI matchmaking might be the next platform shift.Dini (Nandini) Mullaji, co-founder of Sitch, joins Whitney Hazard (M13) to explain how conversational AI and LLMs are replacing swiping with a matchmaker-style experience: deep onboarding, memory, non-negotiables, and curated introductions.We cover consumer AI defensibility, why Sitch avoids subscriptions (pay-per-setup), growth through referrals + branding, what dating data reveals (politics > height), and why AI should scale the matchmaker — not replace human connection.Keywords: AI dating, matchmaking, dating apps, consumer AI startups, venture capital, M13, Sitch, LLMs, OpenAI, relationship tech, seed investing, Stanford GSB, growth marketing.GuestsNandini Mullaji — Co-founder, SitchWhitney Hazard — Investor, M13 (Seed + Series A)Follow the PodcastInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/venturecapitalfm/Twitter: https://twitter.com/vcpodcastfmLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/venturecapitalfm/Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/7BQimY8NJ6cr617lqtRr7N?si=ftylo2qHQiCgmT9dfloD_g&nd=1&dlsi=7b868f1b72094351Apple: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/venture-capital/id1575351789Website: https://www.venturecapital.fm/Follow Jon BradshawLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mrbradshaw/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mrjonbradshaw/Twitter: https://twitter.com/mrjonbradshawFollow Peter HarrisLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/peterharris1Twitter: https://twitter.com/thevcstudentInstagram: https://instagram.com/shodanpeteYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/@peterharris2812

In this episode, I critique the "Blackpill" as a comfortable blanket of victimhood for men, contrasting genetics with the learnable skill set of social circle game. I emphasize that women are attracted to pre-selection and status, arguing that showing other women choose you provides access to elite networks that cold approach cannot reach. I dismiss manifestation and The Secret as philosophies for the lazy, instead advocating for a mindset rooted in the "altar of action" and evolutionary psychology.

Visit the Sex With Emily Website: ⁠https://sexwithemily.com/ Episode Description Jordana Abraham and Jared Freed from the U Up? podcast join Dr. Emily for a lively conversation about navigating modern dating without losing your mind. They kick things off with dating horror stories—including Jared's epic backwards fall off a patio chair that took out a sandwich board and a heat lamp. The conversation dives into why so many dates feel like obligations instead of opportunities. Jared and Jordana explain the "sure, I'll go" trap—how settling for matches that are just "fine" leads to boring dates and dating burnout. They emphasize trusting your gut and only going on dates when you're genuinely excited, not just because you feel like you should. They tackle dating app fatigue, discussing why some people thrive on apps while others find them soul-crushing. The key insight: it's about how you use them. Treating apps like a binge-worthy Netflix show instead of something you check in on intentionally (like one hour a week) kills the fun and makes everything feel transactional. The episode includes a listener question about a toxic long-distance relationship where a 22-year-old woman keeps breaking up and getting back together with an insecure boyfriend who constantly asks "are you still into me?" Jared and Jordana break down why this is a mismatch built on drama rather than trust, why her friends are right to be concerned, and how to choose which friends to actually listen to when it comes to relationship advice. They wrap with quickfire questions about turn-ons, turn-offs, what makes good sex, and the number one thing everyone should know: just because the sex is good doesn't mean the relationship is good.

It's Mailbag Monday and Jared is helping listeners with some advice! First, a guy from the past came back, took her on the best date she has had in a long time, and then pulled the “friend” line. She wants to know if her read on the situation makes sense. Next, a listener is back on the apps and needs help figuring out which prompts actually make someone swipe right. And finally, someone keeps getting involved with men who only want something casual, including one who found her number through a credit card mix-up, and she wants to know how to stop this pattern.Support the show

When Nava Kavelin (host of Podcrushed) lost weight at 16, the shift in how the world treated her was immediate and jarring. She went from being invisible to having 10 boys aggressively pursuing her. She joins Nicole to unpack the complicated resentment of suddenly becoming "visible" to people who previously looked right through you.They get into why reciprocity is the bare minimum for a good relationship, the misery of dating someone long-term who won't commit, and how soap operas like Passions warped their brains into thinking it's okay to chase people who don't like you. Nava also shares the time she downplayed her Baha'i faith for a Southern Baptist boy who turned out to only be interested in converting her.Plus, the shocking research she uncovered at the UN about how media impacts girls of color - they are sexualized as young as 3 years old, and unchecked access to porn is normalizing violence for teenagers.Meanwhile, Nicole attempts to connect with the youths, and recounts the wild, slightly racist routine she saw at Criss Angel's Las Vegas show.Heads up: This episode contains spoilers to Netflix's You.Check out Nava's new book, Crushmore at simonandschuster.com/books/Crushmore/Penn-Badgley/9781668077993Watch this episode on our YouTube channel at https://www.youtube.com/@WhyWontYouDateMePodcastSupport this podcast and get discounts by checking out our sponsor:Squarespace: Head to squarespace.com/DATEME to save 10% off your first purchase of a website or domain using code DATEME.Follow:All Links: linktr.ee/whywontyoudatemeTour Dates: linktr.ee/nicolebyerwastakenYouTube: @WhyWontYouDateMePodcastTikTok: @whywontyoudatemepod Instagram: @nicolebyerX: @nicolebyerNicole's book, #VERYFAT #VERYBRAVE: indiebound.org/book/9781524850746This is a Headgum podcast.
