Thirsty: the Podcast

Once in awhile, you meet someone who reminds you who you are and what you really want out of your romantic relationships. And as Heather learned, some people are only in your life for a short time, yet they leave a lasting impact. Meet Paul the Peach, who only went out with Heather twice, yet changed Heather’s dating life for the better - in a very real way.

So you’ve downloaded a dating app. Now what? Laura and Heather share what they’ve learned, mistakes they’ve made, and best practices to not only match-but match well. And-you definitely won’t need a fish photo, partner in crime, or #grateful in your profile. IYKYK!

Have you ever met someone where there was a strong connection, but you just couldn’t get in sync? One day things seem great, but the next might be a rocky road. And, you never know where you stand. Rowdy Ryan was that person for Heather. In this relationship, hijinks, friendship, and chemistry were no match for what became known as “The Coconut Tree Incident.”

Have you ever met someone who made time stand still? Maybe you even swooned a bit? Meet Nate, the date who changed everything. You might think dating apps are the last place to find a meaningful connection, but apparently it can happen - Nate and Laura are the proof. See? it’s not all dumpster fire dating. The Real Thing is still out there.

In Thirsty’s first ever “crossover” episode, we meet Lenny, the liar with a really big secret. Heather and Laura both went out with him, but it turned out Lenny bore little resemblance to who he said he was - and it went beyond skin deep.

Divorce is the earthquake that changes everything, including our friendships. Rediscovering yourself during a new chapter isn’t only about a new definition of romantic love - the platonic pals shift in new and different ways too. This week, Laura and Heather talk about what they learned, what they lost, and the big surprise that rocked Laura’s world.

Re-entering the dating pool after a long term relationship can be overwhelming. Got kids? Well, that’s a whole new ballgame, and some of us handle it a little better than others. How do epi pens, alley makeouts, and a Nintendo Switch add up to first date swagger? Grant (the gamer with no game) is here to show us the way.

We’re all a little bit damaged, but sometimes you meet someone who wants to be in a relationship-any relationship-and it’s hard to know if they’re actually into you. It’s the job you didn’t know you were interviewing for (and weren’t sure you wanted.) One thing’s for certain: you won’t run across this particular job posting on LinkedIn.

What do you get when you mix epic red flags, hardcore baggage, and braids? Meet David the Disaster, the person who somehow managed to take Laura on the worst date of her life. We've all met a "David" or two in our dating journey. Who's yours?

Dating after divorce is a whole new chapter, and navigating love in the digital age just adds to the hilarity. In this premiere episode, Laura and Heather talk about the 6 types of men they meet on Tinder. Which one are you?
