Gem: "OMG I got a match"


Listen Later

England is on lockdown, the Covid pandemic is forcing people into isolation. And alone in her apartment in West Yorkshire, Gem Turner is facing off with her inner demons. 

After almost 30 years of being programmed into thinking that she doesn’t belong in the dating world, Gem finally musters up enough courage, and downloads a dating app. 


And quickly, she meets three clear categories of men: : The “I don’t even see your disability”, the “You teach me so much”, and “ The Fetisher”. 


Participants: Gem Turner, Rhoda Olkin a distinguished professor of clinical psychology at a graduate school that trains therapists at alliant university in the US.  

Host: Alice Lee Edwards
