From proximity crushes and delayed disappointment to the 72-hour rule and "plans are the new foreplay," Joe and Hannah break down the traps, myths, and hard truths of dating apps and digital romance.

In this episode, we’ll get into what it’s really like dating as a model in New York — the assumptions, the surprises, and whether being objectively hot is actually a blessing or a beautiful curse. Then we’re getting a lil” more personal: dating apps, first dates, green flags, icks, and everything in between. You’ll hear his thoughts on being catfished by personality, his go-to moves when he’s into someone, and what not to do if you want a second date.

Today marks the start of something very special. Yep. Joe started watching Sex and the City for the very first time… and let me tell you, he’s hooked. And not like, “oh this is fun” hooked. We’re talking full-on emotional investment. He’s asking existential questions about Mr. Big, passionately defending Samantha, and casually dropping quotes like he’s been brunching with the girls for years. So of course, I had only one thought: Why not turn this into a series? Introducing: And Just Like That… Joe Pressed Play!Over the next six solo episodes, we’re diving headfirst into Joe’s unfiltered, hilarious, and oddly insightful takes on the show that has defined generations. In Part 1, he unpacks Season 1: dating double standards, Can people really change for love?, Are men threatened by smart, successful women—or are they just obsessed with models? questionable life choices, and the iconic theories that still hit way too close to home.
