Sex.
Both me.
Both me.
Both me.
I'm Levegar.
I'm Julian Fields.
And this is the perverts podcast, where we venture into horny online subcultures and take you along for the ride.
Life is the act of perusing a catalog for the best products the market has to offer.
people are interchangeable, and it's your job to leaf through them, always seeking something
new, different, and better.
Simultaneously, you're also a commodity for everybody else to consider, responsible for writing
your own pitch and taking your own product photography.
If you do this correctly, you'll create an effective sales funnel guiding potential partners
from awareness to consideration before the sale is closed and you can shift to engendering
brand loyalty.
Now, if this feels overwhelming, hollow even, do not worry.
Technology is here to help you with every step of the process through a set of holistic solutions known as dating apps.
They're increasingly both the way people meet romantic partners and find out that beneath the surface of every stranger runs a turbulent river of horniness and aggression.
So strap on your scuba gear and pinch your nose, fellow pervert, as we tumble backwards into these dark waters together.
Just don't forget to breathe.
Joining us in the Swipe Den is Jamie Loftus, comedian and author of Raw Dog.
the truth about hot dogs. Welcome, Jamie. Hi, thank you so much for inviting me to your horniest space.
It's truly an honor. Of course. And yeah, you'll serve a bit as our analog correspondent.
Someone who, after a short attempt to use dating apps about five years ago, you told us, went completely
analog and have had awful results just like the rest of us. So just to find out that the grass is
always greener in the past thing. We're not doing one of those fascists, like things used to be better.
there was a nice pastoral, you know, trad past.
I think that my conclusion is things were never good and never will be.
There's no good approach and there's mostly bad results.
Fantastic.
Yeah.
In this episode, we'll be hearing stories from our perverts listeners,
listening to a voicemail from our beloved Jake Rockatansky about one of his awful experiences,
and Liv has prepared a rundown of some of her own experiences in the magical world of dating apps.
Yes, very, very pleasant stuff. Lots of fun.
Yes, yes. I mean, if you follow Liv on Twitter, you know she gets only positive attention from sane people.
Yeah. No, I mean, getting a lot of male attention online is just really fun and pleasant.
Yeah.
No notes.
Dating app stories. We will start with one dubbed Carebear Girl. This was written in from Radocity One.
Up front, this woman was 30 years old.
That's never good
That's never good
That you have to say that up front
So about five years ago
I had a date with someone I met
On coffee meat bagel
Some Tweed dating app
She seemed normal enough
When we were chatting
So we agreed to go to some
Breakfast plate for a date
With me picking her up
Right off the bat
She came out to my car
In Care Bear Pajamas
Okay I'm seeing why the up front
