Ep. 126 – Topic Tapas: Tiny Plates of Tiny Advice

AlphaCounter’s Sean Ryan joins me to talk about every topic under the sun.  He’s watching all the cartoons, I’m winning all the pub quizzes, and we’re both navigating post-lockdown life with much success.

Tables get flipped over too many apps and hygge is found in the form of lovely crocheted mind flayers.

Sean Ryan is back to celebrate this episode milestone with me and answer a listener email. We cover the new dating terms of 2021 and find out the deets of Sean’s new gig, and flip tables over the fact that incest p*rn has taken over all of our search histories whether we like it or not.

Ep. 109 – The COVID-19 Episodes – Antibodies

Sean Ryan phones it in from an undisclosed location in his driveway and joins me for talks about missing COVID-19 antibodies, snakes, California, and the problems with podcasting in the age of “Cancel Culture.” Sean gets his kid hooked on Sonic the Hedgehog and is one of the only folks still buying Blu-rays…and witness the return of FLIPPING TABLES!

Ep.100 – The World’s End: No really, it’s the fucking apocalypse.

This is it! Episode 100 – the final regularly scheduled episode of Mating Habits of the Modern Geek.

It’s a full house when Em, Andrew Bartlett, Paris, The Business, LLC and Sean Ryan join me to give the show a proper send off. It’s loud, chaotic, the cold open is too long, and as per usual, we barely mention dating – you know, a pretty standard show.

We do all flip a collective table over the probable end of Western Civilization.

As always, we owe everything to the folks who subscribe and listen to the show.

It has been an absolute pleasure, and hope to see you over on State of the Geek, We Don’t STOP for Chests, Colin!, or any of the other half dozen shows I’ll be on.

Please stay subscribed to make sure you don’t miss out on new sporadic Mating Habits Episodes that will be popping up from time to time.

Thank you – Kelley

Ep.99 – Finishing Moves: Score that second date!

mhmg99negan

It’s our penultimate episode! Sean Ryan takes a break from daddy detail to chat with me about getting that second date.

We spoil the shit out of Walking Dead, talk about Rise of the Tomb Raider, Destiny’s Festival of the Lost, and Sean archives the entirety of AlphaCounter.com for prosperity.

Tables are flipped and the begging begins in earnest for submissions for the last episode of Mating Habits, where all the hosts will be on hand to answer your questions, give your shoutouts, and bid farewell.

Ep.91 – Boys and Breakups: Do Men Suffer Longer with a Broken Heart?

BreakupBoy


http://traffic.libsyn.com/matinghabitsofthemoderngeek/Ep91_MHMG.mp3

Sean Ryan and I reluctantly return from an all-too-short break to talk about some interesting findings about how men and women suffer differently from breakups.

We discuss my recent success as a damn bass pro, Sean’s first Father’s Day, “Injustice” in video games, and I get another insulting message from someone on OKC – must be a day that ends in “Y.”

We play another round of One, True, Three, where I won’t tell you who wins…only that she’s also incredibly good-looking, and tables get flipped over parking lot etiquette and gold diggers plaguing our streets.

Ep.89 – The Call-in Special/Cheaters Never Prosper: What is Cheating Anyway?

MHMG Call-In


http://traffic.libsyn.com/matinghabitsofthemoderngeek/Ep89_MHMG.mp3

Get comfortable because this is a long one. Andrew Bartlett and Sean Ryan help me navigate all the technical difficulties of our first-ever call-in show!

We catch up on the Haps, answer an email from one of our favorite listeners, and discuss matters of deception – cheating!

I talk for a very long time with Kenny Rotter of Dumbbells and Dragons about his views on the subject of cheating, and we all get to chat with Official PodPal Robbie Polanco, and the mastermind behind the Twitter handle @KelleyFactCheck or “Lies Mating Habits Told me.” Sean Ryan claims to have had a call from Sean Lynch of Nerd Church fame, but Andrew and I didn’t hear it… so I don’t think it actually happened 😉

Tables get flipped over over-dramatic fan reactions (MILD SPOILERS FOR GAME OF THRONES AND ARROW), folks who don’t know who they’re talking to, and stolen Slim Jims.

Thanks to everyone who called in and talked with us!

Ep.87 – Return to the Friendzone: Civil PodWar!

FedoraIronManMHMG


http://traffic.libsyn.com/matinghabitsofthemoderngeek/Ep87_MHMG.mp3

Sean Ryan returns to have a new discussion about the “Friendzone” which I have recently come to believe doesn’t actually exist. He and I went in thinking we were going to have a podwar about it, but end up concurring in the end.

We spoil the hell out of the season finale of The Walking Dead, squee over the Rogue One trailer, and Sean’s on every podcast and has got a crib up in ‘da crib!

We play a fun game of One, True, Three that, for reasons, may be my favorite so far. Tables get flipped over cancelled circuses and ad-blocker blockers!
