Summary

Are you tired? Because Ali & Erica are VERY tired. Of dating apps, that is. This week, we hold space for all of your (and our) fatigue with dating on our phones - from matches turned penpals, to empty profiles, to feeling like we’re on a hamster wheel. It’s tough out there and we feel your pain!


To combat some of this, Ali has turned to Bumble BFF - and has her first Tinder date in a minute! Erica looks forward to life in LA and poses an important question: is it okay to have sex in a friend’s bed?

where they're like, hey, we've noticed you've been on Hinge for seven years, continually, pretty much.

Now we have a deal with this doctor to freeze your eggs.

Hello, and welcome to other episode of Finding Mr. Hyatt the podcast. I'm Allie, back with my co-host, Erica. Erica, I miss our hotel room in Vegas. Your background. I'm back, baby. I'm back in Vegas this week. Feels nice. Great weather. I'm very excited. I'm so jealous. I was just like, after we logged on and I like saw your background,

0:38.3

I was like just flashing back to our trip. I'm just like, oh, that was so fun. Yeah, it's a good time. My friend Talia, my, my former roommate that I just moved out, she's coming. Yeah. Join me for a few days. so she already, she's very an itinerie gal, I guess, but, but the perfect type of just kind of one big thing a day. Yeah. So she's only here three, four days. So just one thing a day. She already mapped it out. So, I'm very excited. I'm going to do some stuff we didn't get to do yet. So I love it. Yeah. What are you most excited about that you're going to do? Um, I'm a show girl. We're going to go see, I'm going to see another magic show.

1:08.9

Yes, which one are you going to see? Uh, so I think we might end up seeing two because Penn and Teller was not, uh, here while you were here. Right. And they're back. And it's right in the hotel. So it's super easy for me to just leave the, you know, I have two shows every night, seven and nine 30. and it's a perfect time right in between the two.

1:10.5

So I can run over there and do that.

1:44.3

There also is Chippendales in our hotel, which is also right in between our two shows. So we'll see if we're up for another shirtless man fest. But we're for sure seeing probably Penn and Teller, and we already got tickets to. It's like this newer magician, I'm going to probably butcher his name.

1:47.4

He's at The Mirage.

1:48.4

His name is Shin Lin, I believe, is how you say it.

1:51.4

I'm very sorry if I say that wrong.

1:52.6

But my good friend is actually the house magician and MC at the Big Apple Circus one of New York.

2:00.8

Oh. And I was asking him about it because he'll stop by at the comedy seller and still one of New York. Oh.

2:01.4

And I was asking him about it because he'll stop by at the comedy seller and still do his

2:04.5

stand-up. And I asked him of the newer magicians in town,

2:08.3

you know, we saw David Copperfield, who's, you know, world-renowned, famous for years, right?

2:12.6

And he said he's one of the best newer ones around. So I'm very excited to go check it out.

2:21.4

So fun. I was wondering if you were going to say that you were seeing Usher and I was going to be happy for you, but also so

2:25.1

upset. I looked at tickets because I could, I would have had to come Saturday before the week I worked.

2:30.7

Yeah. And it was insanely expensive. The floor seats were all sold out and it was like $300 for

2:36.6

nosebleed. And so in that case, I said, well, he'll take this on tour at some point and I'll go see it.

2:43.2

I was debating having Usher birthday, but he's not doing it my birthday sadly. So how dare he? I know,
