Dating A Broad is a remote dating podcast. Episode three is about the single ladies who have decided to use lockdown as an opportunity to take a break from dating, and their nomad counterparts who explore the joys of travelling the world alone. We meet Jess, a British comedian, who has decided to focus on her comedy during quarantine because she doesn’t think virtual dating in these circumstances is a foundation for a healthy relationship. We also catch up with our friend writer and digital nomad Maria who’s been travelling the world with her laptop for the last 7 years and is currently locked down in Argentina. She’s been dating on and off during her time as a nomad but has decided to use lockdown to take a complete break from men, which she says has cleared sooo much mental space. Plus, our latest virtual dating updates and crazy stories from our combined 16 years of dating on the road!
