Ep. 101 Exposing What Men Actually Want (And It's Not What You Think) | Season 6 Premiere!

from MEET IN THE MIDDLE · host James, Rachel, Jake and Danny

Welcome back to Meet in the Middle! 🎉 We're kicking off Season 6 with Episode 101, and it's great to be back in the studio! This week, we've got a jam-packed episode full of bizarre stories, hilarious confessions, and a brand new segment. First up in "Have You Heard?", Jake tells a wild story about a Tinder date that went horribly wrong. Imagine picking up your date, driving to the bank, and suddenly finding yourself as the getaway driver for an armed robbery! Yes, this actually happened in Massachusetts in 2016. It's a real-life GTA moment that will make you rethink your next swipe right. In "Confessionals," we hear from a listener who got the ultimate revenge on a terrible boss, and another who had a very unfortunate (and painful!) encounter with a wine bottle and a face scrubber in a hotel room. Danny also shares a hilarious story about a holiday cleaner and a "borrowed" lady shave. Then, we introduce "Rachel's Furry Box"! (Don't worry, it's a box full of questions, not what you're thinking! ) This week, we debate which one song we could listen to for the rest of our lives. In "Boys Catch Yourselves On," Rachel investigates a surprising phenomenon: why do men secretly love being the "little spoon"? The guys weigh in on the comfort of being cradled and the politics of bedtime cuddling. Finally, Danny revamps "What the Fact?" This week, he decodes the viral TikTok trend of commenting "6767" and explains the confusing world of "post-ironic humor" and "brain rot." Plus, we're launching our official Spotify playlist, "The Middlers Soundtrack"! We each pick a new song to add this week, featuring tracks from Evanescence, Chris Lake, Joy Division, and Matt Terry. Grab a drink, have a laugh, and join the chaos! FOLLOW AND HIT THE BELL NOTIFICATION TO NEVER MISS AN EPISODE!📧 Want to contact us?Mail: [email protected]: @podcast.meetinthemiddle🎵 Intro and Outro: Living Kills - The Noise
