Summary
Modern dating is… a lot. Between situationships, ghosting, and the apps that feel more like a second job, finding anything close to a healthy relationship has never been more complicated.
But on the bright side? It does make for some incredible stories.
Joanne McNally is one of the funniest people I know. She made history as the first Irish female comic to headline Dublin’s 3Arena and soon she’ll be bringing her brilliant chaos to Celebrity Traitors.
In this Great Moment, Joanne takes us deep into her hilariously chaotic dating life from the disasters to those awkward pillow talk moments.
Because sometimes the only way to survive the dating world is to laugh your way through it.
