Show Notes Episode 481: What A Wicked Game to Play


This week Host Dave Bledsoe is violently ejected from the Arbor Terrace Teaneck weekly Bingo Night for helping Mrs. Maria Santamarino when she rigged the game for sexual favors to be named later! (He also owed her money!) On the show this week we take a look at television matchmaking shows, the good, the bad, the insane!


Along the way we discover that Dave had never been a big hit with the ladies! (Shocking!) Then we dive right into the history or matchmaking going back to the Bronze Age. Finally, we hit the stage for The Dating Game, before finally sitting down on the couch with the suavest motherfucker in all the 80s, Chuck Woolery! (Before he became a MAGA CHUD and died.) Then we take a tour of all the dating game shows that came after Love Connections but never rose to its perfection and remind you all that Jenny McCarthy, no matter how nice her boobs, is part of why the world is fucked today!


Our Sponsor this week is Last Call Dating, because everyone is sexy at Last Call! We open with a Dating Game ripoff and close with the Brother Comatose, who don’t WANT to fall in love!
