More from Why Won't You Date Me? with Nicole Byer
Three weeks after ending a 15-year relationship, comedian Adam Conover (Adam Ruins Everything, Factually!) went on a date with a 6'3" dominatrix whose first question was how he wanted to be dominated. He joins Nicole to share his side of the breakup with Lisa Hanawalt and dive into his newly single life, including exploring his sexuality, rediscovering himself, and experimenting with power dynamics in the bedroom. Plus, he shares stories from the messy dates he’s been on along the way, explains why he thinks straight men are the most sexually repressed people in America, and reveals how he’s learned to turn a bad date into a great night.
Illustrator and friend Lisa Hanawalt (Bojack Horseman, Tuca & Bertie) returns to the podcast to chat about starting fresh in the dating scene after a 15-year relationship with Adam Conover, and what happened when they tried opening things up before they parted ways. Lisa explains wanting to be a slut while still needing to feel safe, her dates with a pathological liar who claimed he’d survived three train crashes, and what it’s like explaining PMDD mood swings to a new partner. Next week, Adam Conover joins Nicole to share his side of things.
Drag queen Darlene Mitchell (Drag Race S18) joins Nicole for a chat about finding love in the Instagram DMs, pulling off a tear-jerking surprise proposal, and coming out to her conservative family via a massive group text right before leaving to film reality TV. Darlene spills on a disastrous first date with an aspiring news anchor who was stuck in his persona, and dumping a college crush after finding out he was making out with someone ugly. Plus, they discuss why weaponized therapy speak on social media is ruining modern dating, and why you actually might need to change who you are for a partner if your habits are the problem. Finally, Nicole brings in her tooth to show off the instrument left in it by TruGlo Modern Dental. Avoid them at all cost!

But what happens when you’re a 6"2 woman facing a dating pool of tall men who have coasted by on their height alone? According to comedian Marcella Arguello, it's time to abandon the tall man propaganda - and finally give short kings the respect they deserve. Marcella returns to the podcast to break down the brutal body standards we face in the dating pool. Nicole and Marcella also discuss the tragedy of having big dicks attached to bad people, and debate whether lying can actually keep the peace in a relationship. Plus, the story how she got a boyfriend by playing the long game.
