Dating With Gina

That's A Wrap! - The End of Season Two

This week Gina chats with Emily Smith, Founder, and CEO of our new favorite way to meet people: it's an app and it's called Chorus. But it's not just another dating app! The idea of the Chorus App is to tap back into the art of meeting people through friends and bringing accountability & humanity back to dating. "We miss the days when people met through friends.  So we built an app that brings accountability back to dating and makes it more human again."Chorus allows you to involve your BFFs in helping to create matches with whom they deem worthy and a good fit for you. Within the app, there's a feature called Dating Roulette which is essentially online speed dating which has singlehandedly injected humanity back into online dating.

Three Dates in Lockdown And How Gina's Managing

Let me preface this by saying: I absolutely do not have a PhD in psychology. I'm not a dating coach. And I'm in no position to give formal dating advice. But I HAVE been on more dates than my therapist and probably most of you, so I think it's safe to say, I have what people like to call, “real world experience,” which makes my content relevant and applicable to your dating lives. Some of these stories will shock you. Some might even be a little tactless and tasteless at times. That's ok. My intention is never to be mean spirited. I just prefer to look at the world with a bit of levity and a ton of laughter. With equal parts vulgarity and vulnerability, I give you a podcast about truly horrible dates. Also, I'm funny. xo Gina
