Way Less News: Your Problems Aren't Fake, But They're Not Women's Fault

Hi. Here's the first (of more than one?) episode of Way Less News, recorded on April 23. Katy, Cody, and Jonathan discuss yogurt fixations, Stardew Valley, fantasy pilots, and then Katy presents a thread on men's dating app frustrations that gets the crew's gander up! We plan to post episodes of Way Less News to our main podcast feed at some point, but this is a Patreon Exclusive for the time being. Enjoy!

omg Katy you fucking nailed how fragile some men tend to be with this app, as an ugly ass woman i understand the frustration with not getting swipes but like Cody said its made for specific people

I think a big issue with some guys in dating apps is when they match and start a conversation, they immediately think it's relationship. So if the women doesn't reply they take it as being dumped before they even met in person. I also think that people have a different view in finding a romantic partner than finding friends. It's the same process. You meet someone find that you have things in common then hang out to see if your compatible. Treat a date like hanging out with a potential friend, not the love of your life

Preach, sister!

Re the dating apps conversation, it sounds like the angry man has a huge sense of entitlement regarding women. He really needs to brush up on the concept of consent and human autonomy.

I once wrote a checklist for men messaging women on dating sites/apps. This was almost a decade ago and I think it's still relevant: 1) Read their ENTIRE profile. 2) CONSIDER WHETHER THE TWO OF YOU ARE COMPATIBLE -- don't message if you're not! 3) Compose an original message, minimum five complete sentences, specifically referencing something in their profile and indicating how it is similar to your own life experience. 4) This works best if your own profile is honest, thoughtful, informative, and DOES NOT include a shirtless selfie in the bathroom mirror.

Hey, you can't finish by saying you're sorry! That's Drawfee's thing! ;)

Well I'm for it! Cody, stop talking over Katy! There's an art to being on an unscripted thing, and that's important. But this sort of thing makes me happy that I'm throwing in a few bucks. Really enjoyed it.

Katie, the advice you gave at about 50:30 ish was some real sage shit. Loved this episode.

I’m convinced that most of your audience is mostly writers, actor’s, comedians and creatives, i think you should do the script reads with your patrons…maybe have us sign something saying we won’t steal your script or some shit…lol

As a forever single millennial male, I do think dating apps work, but when you’re short, fat, and ugly like I am, they aren’t helpful. I don’t blame other users for not matching with me, which is why I’m trying to lose weight, get some work done like teeth straightening and whitening, and am going to therapy. But it’s weird that I have to work on myself to make myself attractive like I’m a home constantly getting remodeled/renovated, but women seem to be a completed work of art under museum glass. I have to change but somehow they don’t. I have to accept them for who they are but they don’t have to accept me for who I am. Although, I am a piece of shit so… it seems legit.
