Austin skews young, with a median age of 34, and with great weather most of the year and an endless list of things to do, it may seem like the perfect place to find the right mate. But it’s not. And today, host Nikki DaVaughn peels back the layers of dating suckiness with Rose McMackin, a writer who recently penned a story for Austin Monthly Magazine, “Why Is Austin Dating So Cursed?” But don’t worry, we won’t leave you in a puddle of despair for too long — we’ll follow up soon with an interview that will help you succeed in dating, even here.  

We’d like to thank Tecovas, who makes our favorite Western wear in town, for being our exclusive launch sponsor.
