Comedian Joe DeRosa joins Lauren Compton for a chaotic and painfully honest episode of First Date. Joe talks about officially moving to Austin full-time, life after heartbreak, surviving dating apps with absolutely zero matches, and figuring out who he actually is now.

They get into bad flirting, people using people, why paddle boarding is terrible, the sacred art of the bar crawl, and the difference between trying to impress someone versus actually vibing with them.

Joe’s new podcast Vile & Horrendous is out now on YouTube through YMH Studios and everywhere podcasts are available.
