A retiree has come up with a unique way to find a date and it's going viral on X. Instead of using a dating app, the woman posted a note on a garden wall with her phone number at the bottom. Somebody snapped a photo, blurred out personal information, and shared the ad online. Some said she was being too picky!

Before the DM or chatroom, if you wanted to connect with a stranger pseudo-anonymously, you bought a personal ad. This week, Be Reel seeks three films with classified ads as inciting incidents: “Desperately Seeking Susan” (1985), “Single White Female (1992) and the now 20-year-old “Ghost World” (2001). Romance, murder and vicarious living abound, plus the story of Chance and Noah once answering an ad. --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/theplaylist/message

Wen and Andrew are joined by Michael to sit down with Niccole Thurman (Haute Dog, The Opposition, Superstore, Shrill, A Black Lady Sketch Show) and talk about where dating went so wrong, with the introduction of online dating. They trace the history of the personal ad back to 1695, and follow the insane timeline up through early social networks in matchmaking magazines during the 19th/20th century, to the first computer dating service in 1959, and how that all led to the apps of today!Learn about the insane stipulations of the first personal ad, the astounding results the first time a woman tried to place one, and the covert codes used in lonely hearts magazines that got one shut down and the owner arrested. Plus, when reaching dating apps and the current era, you get to learn about our podcasters’ love lives! Which surprisingly may not be the disasters this show normally strives for, but they’re prepared to make it worse for your entertainment!
In March 2017, Chicago writer Amy Rosenthal wrote what may be the most widely read personal ad in history. But it wasn't for her. Rosenthal was planting the seeds for the world - and hopefully the right woman - to fall in love with her husband Jason, knowing that she had very little time left to live after a battle with ovarian cancer. "You May Want to Marry My Husband" was published in the popular Modern Love column in the New York Times, and was read by millions around the world. In it, she gushes about her handsome, thoughtful, and talented husband; the life they had together, and how she hoped he would move forward. Jason, a lawyer and now public speaker on the topic of grieving, offers answers to what became of him after Amy's death, and what it was like to open his heart to love again.

John-Paul Byrne took a risk by putting a personal ad in the Village Voice , a weekly New York City newspaper, far from his home in Sydney, Australia. Dawn McCombs responded and a long-distance romance ensued.
Three stories selected from Choosing Beggars on Reddit. A raciest personal ad, typical something for nothing buyer, and begging for Inheritance.
