Season 1 Finale: The One That Changed Things

05/07/2021 92 min 26 sec

Well, well, well.... look who's back!! Guys, I went through something.  This finale is a failure and a revelation and an announcement all in one.  Make sure you stick around after the interview portion for a recap of my failure.  While this was supposed to be about "Open Relationships" or relationshits, it turned into a tale of a personal fail.  A closure to Season 1 in an appropriate way, with a real life fail and me needing to re-evaluate my life for the hundredth time.  So back to be drilled was MB, the ex of it all.  Which took a sharp turn and me on a wild ride for myself and my mental health. So buckle up, here's the season ender.  I'll be back in July for Season 2 with a new purpose and excitement and LOTS of fun guests! In the meantime, find me on Clubhouse sharing fails and tales and helping make connections! Love ya, Failures!

04/08/2021 24 min 48 sec

Tiana sits down for a one on one interview with Kellina, known on social media as Deaf Queen Boss, for a chat on dating as a deaf woman.  Her unique perspective is eye opening and inspiring.

For the Love of Baseball

03/25/2021 43 min 33 sec

Baseball is known as America's favorite pastime....but isn't dating technically one of America's favorite pastimes as well? So, combining two of my favorite hobbies had to be done.  And the perfect person to discuss this with would be the man who hates my team and I hate his. Who doesn't love a good sports rivalry, right? With that, there's lots of sports talk, an awkward first date, a literal explosion on a date, me going to bat for the Angel's against the A's, and dying on hills. We also discuss my guest host's love of flex Friday photos.... So on this thirsty Thursday, get ready to play ball as we take you out to the ballpark for tales of strike outs with dating and baseball.  As a reminder, make sure to subscribe to the podcast to be notified when new episodes are released!

That Swipe Life thumbnail

That Swipe Life

03/18/2021 54 min 26 sec

Swiping to find a match, potential partner, love of your life, toxic relationshit, the one your therapist will hear about for years, or latest hook-up is the common way of meeting people now....but with online dating, there's a lot of polarized opinions. So who better than having someone who does standup to come on and share his experience with dating apps (and the awkward dates that come along with swiping on a stranger and meeting up with them). We also touch on why drinking and dating makes for some questionable, but hilarious times. By the end of the episode, you should learn to don't drink and swipe... So, may the odds ever be in your favor.  And, hey, don't forget....you're always one swipe away from another bad date, but statistically speaking a good one is coming your way. #silverlinings Not an ad, but Noonlight is mentioned in this episode as a safety app one can download. It's never a bad idea to be safe and try to avoid ending up missing, murdered, and on the latest Dateline having your family and friends exaggerate about what a joy you were. So get Noonlight and maybe a taser, too, because dating and life are wild. #safetyfirst Be social! Follow Tales of Fails on the public Facebook page and join the private Facebook group (18+ only).

He Said/She Said, The Tale of MB thumbnail

He Said/She Said, The Tale of MB

03/09/2021 42 min 11 sec

In life, there are three sides to every story: theirs, yours, and somewhere in the middle lies the truth.  Since I am choosing to tell the tales of my personal dating and relationship fails, I figured it is only fair for the ghosts of my past to get to share their side, too. In "He Said/She Said, The Series" I sit down for a one on one with an ex as we rehash the tale of our fail, from both our points of view, in discussions we've never had post break-up. It was only appropriate to start off with the man who's break up motivated me to create this podcast.  Here is the Tale of MB... Buckle up, it's gonna be a ride.  Be Social!

Hallmark has the best Christmas movies. This is not up for debate.  But, Hallmark is also wrecking lives with their made up and non-essential holidays.
