From minute ONE these two have chemistry. There's fiery banter as Corey gives Syd grief over not arriving on time.

The Children's Book Author and The Pop Star Nov 05, 2019

Mat and Dina have been pretty focused on their creative endeavors, so they’ve enlisted the help of Kendall Long to see if they might be a match made in podcast heaven. Mat writes children’s book and Dina is a pop singer – in fact, she can even do a SPOT ON Britney Spears impression (which she demonstrates on the show). This episode gets deep FAST.

A little later, they lighten up the mood by getting to the bottom of the best song to sing during karaoke on a first date. It’s a typical activity for Dina, but is Mat down? We’ll see!

Kendall Long chaperones a date between strangers, Bill and Jessie! Both have lived full lives (Bill has worked his way up in an animation studio and is one of EIGHT siblings, while Jessie has traveled all over the country in her twenties), but there are some concerns about compatibility. Bill oscillates between being the quiet, serious type/more carefree, while Jessie is VERY Type-A. Will the passion found in their debate on "is it ethical to murder a murderer?" lead to a love connection and a future with a house full of animals (Jessie's lifelong dream)? Or are their self-proclaimed "Quarter Life Crises" incompatible?

The Pisces and The Aquarius Oct 01, 2019

Kendall Long hangs out with (soon to be?) couple, Eric and Diana and it gets personal REAL fast. Eric wants to know why it's a big date no-no to ask a lady's weight on a date (but they both decide to guess each other's weight anyway) and then he discusses why his family history in drug dealing contributed to him not being a drug user. They later lighten it up a bit with a debate about whether or not cereal is soup. Diana is clearly intrigued by Eric - he's an open book, full of energy and a great debater, but is the energy a little too much for her? Let's see if these two are DTD!
