Summary

A woman just broke up with her boyfriend (for unknown reasons.) He used to shower her with praise. “You could be a fashion model!!” Now that’s he’s gone, how can she find another man to who will heap her with the praise she needs and craves? On the Magnum, Dan keeps Halloween holy by inviting scream queen Kate Siegel (The Haunting of Hill House, Ouija: Origin of Evil, Midnight Mass etc.,) to discuss relationship drama, and when to back off already. These two are like a couple of giggling sisters with a bowl of popcorn. Also, find out what Dan does every year at his house on Halloween. Dan chats with a gay man whose partner has unilaterally turned off the sex spigot. The boyfriend compares his disinterest in sex with the caller’s disinterest in discussing philosophy. Can this relationship survive? When doctors go wild: She used to be a straight-laced proper lady doctor. She was engaged to a man, and a virgin at that. Then she met the caller, started dating her, and is now dabbles in drugs and tattoos. But the question here folks, is how can the caller bust her former doctor’s very intact hymen.

0:23.4	Hey, did you guys know about snack?
0:25.6	I didn't know about snack.
0:26.9	I didn't hear about snack until last week.
0:30.8	I mean, I guess it makes sense that I didn't know about snack because snack isn't for me.
0:35.7	You could say I'm not smack dab in the middle of snack's target demographic.
0:40.3	Snack is a hook-up app for Gen Z singles funded by Gen Z investors,
0:45.7	founded by Kim Kaplan, who spent a decade as an executive at plenty of fish,
0:50.1	which is a dating app popular with single gen Xers and divorced baby boomers.
0:55.6	People born between 1997 and 2012 are members of Gen Z.
1:00.5	But limiting snack to people between the ages of 10 and 25, which is Gen Z's age spread right now,
1:07.8	that wouldn't make much sense unless snack was a dating app for youth pastors,
1:12.7	in which case it would make perfect sense.
1:15.2	But Kaplan and her team didn't want to create a dating app for youth pastors.
1:19.5	They wanted to create a dating app for youths for the TikTok generation.
1:24.4	So, that snack instead of creating a lengthy profile, blah, blah, blah, words, words, words,
1:30.4	and posting your face pics, which are basically Tim types at this point,
1:35.0	and then spending the night swiping right or left while you watch
1:39.2	Matt Locke and Sip Met Amusel Snackers post dynamic and flashy TikTok style videos.
1:45.6	I don't know if the people on snack are called snackers, but I'm going to call them snackers.
