Hayley Sproull: ZM Host and Comedian on her new comedy show 'Sproull on the Prowl'

Hayley Sproull wears many hats.   Along with being one of the hosts of ZM’s Breakfast show, she’s a television host, a podcaster, an actor, writer, and a comedian.  She’s also newly single, and her recent dating escapades have led to the creation of her newest comedy show – ‘Sproull On The Prowl’.  “Every year I make a comedy show, and every year it gets harder to think about what the theme is going to be,” she told Jack Tame.   “I don’t have a lot of hardship, you know, I haven’t really overcome a lot in my life – so it gets harder.”  In the past Sproull has done shows about things like her body, being in a long-term relationship, and what it’s like being child-free by choice and living that life in your thirties.  “Then I was like, I don’t know what’s next, and then I went through a massive break up.”  “While it is very sad to go through a life-changing breakup, there in the back of your mind, you’re like, “there’s your content.””  It’s been a fair bit of time since Sproull last dealt with the dating market —15 years to be exact— and things have changed quite a bit.  “Lots has changed,” she told Tame.  “Physically for sure things have changed ... but I think, like, I’m so much more confident, right?   “And you are very aware of what you will and won't accept from people now. I don't have a lot of, and I'm not looking, I'm not out there looking for a husband or anything.”  “I'm just looking for decent people to have a good time with.”  And that’s not even mentioning the dating apps, which Sproull now has extensive experience with – Tinder, Feeld, and even Raya, the dating app for the rich and famous.  “I mentioned one of them in my show, a super famous singer-songwriter with a number one hit song that’s dated lots of celebrities popped up and I swiped on him because I thought it'd be funny,” she explained.   “I screenshotted it because I wanted to tell everyone who I saw and the app kicks you off immediately.”  LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
