Single Sounds episodes

  • The one with the vibrator at the Royal Albert Hall

    Listen in to hear from a character who loves to chat and is a brilliant story teller! He’s an eligible bachelor who has that perfect combination of being interesting but also interested and is looking for a long term relationship.

    Whenever there is a choice to be made he likes to choose the option with the best story and believes that you make your own luck in life. 

    With a love of singing, if you slide into the DMs, you could be the lucky person receiving many tuneful voice notes. 

    KEY TAKEAWAYS 

    • I can be quite stubborn but also I’m empathetic
    • I spend far too much time practising and rehearing voice notes of me singing various songs, it’s my escapism 
    • I once sang ‘I dreamed a dream’ at my work's karoke social 
    • I find it really annoying when girls on dating apps are so aggressive about height requirements despite it not impacting me
    • It’s always resonated with me that you make your own luck in life and I’ve always stood by that
    • In life you should always choose the option that gives you the best story 
    • He has the amazing ability to be not only interesting but also interested in what others are saying 
    • BEST MOMENTS

      ‘As the most popular person in the office, his mornings are filled with chats with absolutely everyone’

      ‘At 7pm, tipsy, he usually starts singing, and at around 9pm he’ll tell you he loves you’

      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.

          • Would YOU apply for The Bachelor? With Taru

            In this bonus episode Katie Mc talks to the lovely Taru all about her experience on the Bachelor Finland - Season 2!

            This is an exclusive interview asking all the questions Katie has been dying to ask someone who decided to actually go on a reality TV dating show. Asking all about the villa life, pre-show worries, fame fears, production logistics and most critically for Katie how did your full-time job let you go on leave for weeks?!

            If you want to watch this season of the bachelor to support Taru in her journey on the show she’s landing on your screens in Episode 4, Season 2 which is being released 28th Feb 2023. Don’t worry if you don’t speak Finnish, click the MTV link here open with google chrome, right click and there will be an option to translate to English for the whole site including the video subtitles so we can all enjoy it in all languages! 

            Normally the podcast interviews London singles and the listeners write in if they want to date the characters. We can’t reveal if Taru is single yet until the show concludes but she could be back on the market in London in the future so watch this space! However, she is a huge part of the dating scene in London and has already written two books about her crazy dating experiences in London by being the author of “Girl get the wine” and “Girl call the cab” which have hit Amazons best seller lists.

                  • The one with the ambitious trailblazer

                    This impressive entrepreneur is looking for a relationship with someone who is ambitious in all areas of life and knows how to have a good conversation. 

                    She’s into health and fitness and has a special talent for working out even when hung over so there’s no space for any excuses but she will share a bread feast with you afterwards. 

                    Her best friend also explains why it will be an absolute privilege to date this most beautiful, intelligent, ridiculously fun fitness-loving extrovert so the only question is ‘what are you waiting for?’

                    KEY TAKEAWAYS

                    • I’m weirdly attracted to strong forearms but I’m not generally into hair that wafts about on arms
                    • Being ambitious is really important, I get out of bed pro-active
                    • Ultimately you need to be able to have a good conversation with the person you are with
                    • She has ridiculous athletic prowess, but you’ll never win a pub quiz because the music round gets her every time
                    • Bread is her first love so you will always be playing second fiddle to this
                    • Her lack of a sense of direction could set back any plans so you’ll need to adjust your timings to take this into account
                    • BEST MOMENTS

                      ‘The music round gets her every time no amount of festivals, gigs or trips to Ibiza have been able to save her’

                      ‘I like a drink, I love the day and exercising so whatever happens I’m going to make it to that gym class’

                      ‘I don’t like activity dates it’s better to just go for a walk, drink or a coffee’

                      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.
