Summary

The Bad Dates feed is under construction! While we are beavering away for the next few weeks (calm down), please enjoy a few of our favorite recent episodes. In this installment, host Joel Kim Booster welcomes comedians Laura Peek, Barry Rothbart, and Will Miles to discuss their most iconic dating fiascos. Laura has an amuse-bouche about a mouthful and an entrée about a square peg, Barry’s “papa” handles the situation with a bit of effort, and Will is on a 24 hour date but it takes a chance encounter to sober him up. Plus: someone has glimpsed the darkness behind The Great British Bake Off. Subscribe to our YouTube Channel for video clips. Merch available at SiriusXMStore.com/BadDates.
