2. This is Dating
Dating can be quite confusing. At times, it’s nothing short of a complicated maze that fries your brain cells. The ‘This is Dating’ podcast was created with the idea of helping those stuck in this maze. At times, first dates can be jarring, and some people tend to blow it out of nervousness. Dating apps are quite exhausting, and finally, when you manage to get a match that gets to a first date, you don’t want nervousness to play the anti-hero. If you are someone who gets awkward in social settings, this podcast might just be what you want.
What they do is be a part of a date by listening to the conversation between the two people and helping the other with conversation starters so that they can get the conversation going smoothly.

It is a must-watch when you have nothing else to do, and you will surely have some fun.
3. Land of the Giants
‘Land of the Giants’ does not exactly sound like a podcast that talks about love and dating, but it is. This podcast is hosted by Sangeeta Singh Kurtz and Lakshmi Rengarajan. These two talk about dating apps as socializing and dating websites, as well as businesses. They are in conversation with different professionals and experts from the various dating apps. They talk about what impact dating apps can have on people and what their chances are of actually meeting someone. Sangeeta and Lakshmi discuss the several dating apps out there, like Tinder, Hinge, Bumble, and others. ‘The Land of the Giants’ is owned by three networks, namely, The Cut, The Verge, and finally the Vox Media Podcast Network.

4. When I Met You
‘When I Met You’ is yet another cute series about the beginning of a new relationship and how it continues. There are many emotions that one experiences, and it shows these emotions quite perfectly. ‘When I Met You’ presents you with 20 different stories, each lasting approximately 5 minutes. Inspired by real people and real-life events, you will see people enacting these stories, and you may or may not relate to any of these stories, as again, each story is very different from one another.
