Screenshots of dating apps are making the rounds online and what
feels like mundane exchanges are generating lots of ire and
discourse. As these screenshots become more common in our feeds,
how does it impact the search for love? And what happens when
people use the apps to swipe for content? We talk to Rolling Stone
culture reporter Miles Klee about modern dating expectations and if
the apps have changed them.

Then, Vox senior correspondent Alex Abad-Santos talks with host
Brittany Luse about dating on television. Sex and the City was one
of the most culturally important shows to air on television: it
showed the aspirational lives of four single women in their
thirties and forties. Now that we have the sequel series And Just
Like That, Alex and Brittany sift through its nonsense to ask: what
important things does the show have to say about women in their
fifties and beyond?
