      ABOUT THE HOST

      Katie Mc - London.

      I started Single Sounds to create a new fun method of dating as I felt that there is now little variety with how to meet people. I absolutely love podcasts and believe in the strong sense of self you can get from them so I thought it was perfect for a dating medium.

      As I like to say this podcast is for people who have too much personality for a dating app.

    • The one with Twitter trauma

      Come see the first Single Sounds live show on Wednesday 28th June in Oxford Circus! For Tickets CLICK HERE

      This character is always on the hunt for a good story and she won’t be disappointed if it leads to a relationship. 

      She can’t promise she won’t finish your sentences for you or be late for a date but she will entertain you with amazing stories and make sure your social media is locked down for any potential future employers. 

      She’s vivacious, animated, always up for a laugh and will make sure there are no awkward silences. She has a great, yet mortifying story about a kilner jar that if she’s 4/5 drinks in she may share. 

      KEY TAKEAWAYS

      • Everyone would say my most toxic trait is always thinking I’ll be on time when there isn’t any possibility it will happen
      • My toxic trait is finishing other people's sentences 
      • I’m very passionate about spreading the word to others to check your social media is locked down before you apply for a job
      • If your hobby was designed for a 5 year old and you are in your thirties get in the bin
      • She’s kind, funny, full of entertainment and you’ll never be bored of being around her
      • Her favourite food is sushi top points if there is an unlimited option and the more raw the better! (or is it a hard pass?)
      • She loves a dance so be sure to take her to a salsa bar so she can show off her hard earned moves from her salsa classes and as they say, those hips don’t lie
      • Check the lunar cycle because if it’s a full moon she’ll be charging up her crystals
      • BEST MOMENTS

        ‘I’d forgotten that I had twitter but the internet never forgets’

        ‘If they have a speakers as well that’s worse, go home and think about what you’ve done’

        ‘I was a hot mess for the whole of the first salsa class’

      • The one with a soft creamy interior

        This amazing single man describes himself as like a Lindt Lindor chocolate ball, with a hard exterior with a soft creamy interior. 

        He can expertly whip up a treat in the kitchen and then warm the cockles of your heart afterwards with a rendition of anything from Eurovision to musical theatre.

        He loves a good Guinness in a character pub and dreams of a cottage in the country with some travel thrown in, so if you love food and can get behind some Eurovision this could be the one for you!

        • My biggest ‘ick’ is fussy eaters, grow up its f#cking spinach it’s not going to kill you
        • I don’t like raisins in savoury things, a raisin has no place in a savoury meal

          • As a Harry Potter fan growing up it made me really want to go to University here and I took the risk of coming to study in the UK
          • I live in London but I don’t feel either Italian or German, I think of myself as European

          • TAKEN: The one with Sony Ericsson serenading

            This eligible bachelor of London appreciates Paul Mescal and is casting a wide net to find his ideal date but if you are a redhead you may just have an edge. 

            He has an infectious smile, may serenade you from a window and is never single for very long so to win him over make sure you don’t put too many emojis in that first message. 

            KEY TAKEAWAYS

            • I’m really bad at remembering people’s names when I first meet them, whatever the scenario
            • I once blew it on a date because my mates were also out and I got distracted by their argument about Star Wars, and I’m not even a Star Wars fan
            • I really don’t like people who overuse emojis 
            • He’s a fantastic sportsman, very intellectual with an infectious smile and a great sense of humour plus he has a taste in music that is absolutely banging
            • All in all, he's a really good bloke 
            • BEST MOMENTS

              ‘Hangovers are the bedrock of society, without them society wouldn't exist’

              ‘I've only ever seen him single for a brief amount of time, which shows he gets snapped up quickly by girls, he must have good chat or something’ 

              ‘I will travel far and wide if the person is right’

                    ABOUT THE HOST

                     Katie Mc - London.

                     I started Single Sounds to create a new fun method of dating as I felt that there is now little variety with how to meet people. I absolutely love podcasts and believe in the strong sense of self you can get from them so I thought it was perfect for a dating medium.

                    As I like to say this podcast is for people who have too much personality for a dating app.

                    • The one with the bath bomb babe

                      This character is looking for a serious relationship and is interested in a man with great shoulders and the same level of maturity as her. 

                      Katie has named her as being the best on the podcast so far for guessing dad jokes and she is great at self-care making time for multiple luxurious baths in her week. 

                      She’s someone with a love of adventure, blissful chill nights in and is the absolute queen of planning so you’ll never experience a boring day when you are with he. 

                       KEY TAKEAWAYS

                      • Real broad shoulders on a guy, make you think they can do something interesting with those shoulders
                      • I want to say I’m spontaneous but I like planning too much
                      • I’m mature in a way that means I’ve got my life together but I know when to let loose and enjoy myself
                      • I’m looking for someone who is kind and at a similar point in life to me
                      • She loves a spontaneous adventure but her chill days are something else with cosy blankets, candles, takeaways and movies on the TV it’s pure bliss
                      • BEST MOMENTS
                        ‘Anyone who gets to take her on a date will be very lucky’
                        ‘She is the absolute queen of plans and has everything under control’
                        ‘I know when to let loose and enjoy myself’
