Worst Dates vs Life Hacks

Something a bit different this week, as we do a collaboration episode with our friends at the Life Hacks podcast. Katie Thistleton and Dr Radha joins Luke and Arielle to spill their dating secrets, plus we address some dating problems sent in by the Life Hacks listeners.

Is it awkward when twins talk about sex and dating in front of each other? We find out the answer to that on this episode with Luke Franks and Arielle Free. Plus we discuss nudes and chunky thighs (in two different conversations).

Sitting in a pool of vomit while trying to chat up a girl isn’t ideal, but it happened to one of our guests this week. Plus, Ukranian bear trainers and being taken on a date to McDonalds (which we can all agree is not acceptable behaviour).

Broken arms and wee on the carpet. Just two dating disasters this week from Love Island star Olivia Attwood and the winner of The Circle Alex Hobern. Plus, a catfishing story that beggars belief.

Zoos, kidnapping and papparazzi - all feature in this week’s selection of Worst Dates with Luke Franks and Arielle Free. Plus, that feeling when your ex’s parents prefer you to their new partner. Quite awkward.

We have our first couple on Worst Dates and it turns out one of their most memorable bad dates was spent together. Let’s just say, it must be true love after what they went through. Plus, quite a confusing story about a jellyfish.

Why is Sam Thompson so terrible at chatting up girls? Find out some of his not-so-successful flirting techniques, while Grace Victory tells us about a Nando’s disaster. Plus author Gabby Fernie remember her worst ever date - and it was on national television too!

Being shouted at by Brian May isn’t something you get to do every day, but find out why that happened on someone’s date as Dick and Dom give us a rare insight into their personal lives. Plus, a listener story that left us all completely speechless.

Angry saxophonists, theme park nightmares and being kicked in the balls. Plus Lauren Mahon brings her absolute a-game with three incredible worst date stories.

Ever panicked and put your head in your bag to avoid someone? Jessica Anne Woodley has a story about that, plus Joe Tasker tells Luke Franks and Arielle Free about the time he bumped a car on a date - but there’s a twist. Elsewhere, tables are flipped and dogs are sick - all in a day’s work here on Worst Dates.
