Welcome to the whatever dating talk podcast where we try to make sense of the modern dating hellscape.

I'm your host, Brian Atlas. Thanks for tuning in tonight. You could have been anywhere in the world, but you're here with me. I appreciate that.

We're coming to you live from Santa Barbara, California, every Sunday and Tuesday, 5 p.m. Pacific.

A few quick announcements. This podcast is viewer-supported, heavy YouTube demonetization.

So please consider donating through stream labs instead of super chatting as YouTube takes a brutal 30% cut.

So if you super chat 100, YouTube takes 30.

If you donate 100, Streamlabs only takes 3.

Streamlabs.com slash whatever link is in the description.

We do prioritize messages that are made via stream labs.

If you want to interact nearly instantly with us and weigh in on the conversation,

consider sending a TTS text- speech message for the first 30 minutes or so of the show.

TTS will be $69 thereafter. TTS will be $200 and up. TTS is via Stream Labs only.

If your chat or TTS is too toxic, we reserve the right to skip it. Please see the

description for all other triggers. Full details. We have channel memberships. Appreciate all you guys

dropping the memberships there. To become a member, hit the join button. Tier one is just
