On a new episode of Bad Dates, host Joel Kim Booster welcomes comedians Jay Jurden and Adam Rose to discuss their most iconic dating fiascos. Jay had an early experience which ended in an unfortunate embrace, and Adam’s girlfriend picked a helluva time to tell him about her five star Hubert rating. Then, Jay has a final story which boils down to: do your research. Plus: French fries, can we please just tell the truth?
