Episode description

We've all had it happen to us: you strike up a great conversation with someone on a dating app, and it looks like it SHOULD be heading to a real-life date.  Except it doesn't.  

Why, oh why do people - who are presumably on the dating app to DATE - want to text endlessly instead?  Or worse - ghost you when you suggest actually meeting IRL?  

Jinah and Daniel are joined by two guests: Kari Mendoza - @808golfergirl and Alex Min - @alexsmin as they try to get to the bottom of this WTF conundrum.
