Age: 24 Occupation: Talent & Culture Coordinator Top three things she wants from a relationship: Fun & adventure, support & encouragement, strong connection & love How she describes herself: I’m excitable and light hearted but can also have deep conversations. I’m family and friends oriented and love quality time with them. I think I’m thoughtful & genuine, and I seize the opportunity to make someone’s day. I’m a good communicator and I’m comfortable being vulnerable when I need to be. Best quality: I think my genuine nature. Worst quality: I can be an over-thinker and I worry a little too much. What she hopes to get out of this experience: I love the idea of being a part of a brand new dating medium, especially as I love podcasts so much.

Welcome to Eligible!  The dating podcast that's all about finding you love at first sound.  Today's single is Callum and here's a little bit about him... Age: 28 Occupation: Account Manager at a Media Agency Top three things he wants from a relationship:  I know everyone says this, but no games. Let’s be honest with each other. Good banter and a lot of laughs. Great food. I can’t keep eating at restaurants alone How he describes himself: I am pretty easygoing and level-headed. While I'm pretty passionate about politics, the environment etc., on a personal level I get along with almost anyone.  I am curious about the world and I love learning and creating new things. Clearly I think I’m pretty funny too, seeing as I moonlight as a stand-up comedian. Best quality: I asked my friend to help me with this – he said my sense of humour. I think maybe it’s this as well as my ability to stay positive and make light of any situation. Worst quality: Judging by how long it took me to fill out this application, probably my tendency to procrastinate. What he hopes to get out of this experience: Some great dates, maybe a long-term relationship. And to have fun along the way.

Welcome to Eligible! The dating podcast that's all about finding you love at first sound.  Today's single is Des and here's a little bit about him... Age: 55 Occupation: Photographer and Business Owner Top three things he wants from a relationship: Connection and chemistry, someone to give to and not take from. Also, someone to travel with, dine with, and learn with. I'm also looking for laughter and intimacy. How he describes herself: Urgh. Don’t we all hate this bit? Classic…not plastic. Old school…but not old fashioned. Gentleman…but adventurous. Still having fun. I value principles, morals, ethics and etiquette, but am in no way and old fuddy-duddy! Think chivalry…but with equality. Metrosexual with a healthy streak of Alpha male. Respectful of feminism but still likes to treat a lady like a lady. Plenty of oxymorons there! I love; Good coffee Negronis and Dirty Martinis Good wine Cooking…and dining out. Vinyl records…and live music. The smell of leather. Arts and Culture, photography, film, first edition rare books. Le Corbusier and Eames, Murano Glass Motorbikes and campervans. Silver over gold. All shades of Black. Dogs…and cats International travel is a given. A little bit of kink doesn’t scare me. I also love giving. I derive more pleasure in giving than receiving. Have lived in 4 countries, now on the Northern Beaches of Sydney. Best quality: Pfft. Thats funny. Um…Humility…and a sense of humour. Worst quality: I am told that me being a perfectionist with principles can sometimes be annoying. What he hopes to get out of this experience: When I go on a date, my son always says to me “Remember Dad, No Expectations, No Disappointment”. I live by that now. But I would like to think that 2-3 ladies might find me interesting enough to reach out and at least have a coffee date. HOW DOES THE SHOW WORK?
