About This Podcast

A No-BS Podcast About the Single Life After 30

Welcome to You Single?—the podcast for those of us navigating singlehood in our 30s, 40s, and beyond. Hosted by your favorite friendly Sasquatch, Joel Poppert, and the fiery and fabulous Emanuela Messineo (aka “E”), this show is for anyone who’s ever swiped left, been ghosted (or done the ghosting), and questioned whether dating apps are completely broken.


We’re here to talk about the reality of single life as grown-ass adults. Dating? Sure. But also, the joys (and occasional disasters) of being unattached. From cringey first dates to the freedom of doing whatever the hell you want, we cover it all—unfiltered, unscripted, and fully embracing our middle-aged dorkiness.

Expect hilarious rants, real talk, and the occasional deep dive into why the fuck it’s so hard to meet people these days. Whether you’re actively dating, happily single, or just vibing in between, You Single? is your place to laugh, commiserate, and own this chapter of your life.


💥 Bonus Content: Midlife Uncensored 💥
For when we’re not talking about dating, we bring you Midlife Uncensored—a no-holds-barred sub-series where we rip the band-aid off midlife. From career shifts and parenting chaos to reinventing ourselves (or just trying to survive the day), this is where we get real about the highs, lows, and WTF moments of getting older. No filters, no sugarcoating—just raw, relatable stories and plenty of humor.

So, are you single? Let’s mingle. And if you’re just here to laugh at the absurdity of midlife—well, we’ve got that covered too.
