In Episode 1 of His & Hers: Unfiltered, we're asking the question everybody's been thinking: Why is dating in 2026 so ghetto?

From ghosting and situationships to unrealistic expectations, social media influence, dating apps, and the never-ending battle of who should pay on the first date, we're breaking down the chaos of modern dating from both the male and female perspective.

Join Joia and Torrence as they share personal experiences, unpopular opinions, hard truths, and plenty of laughs while discussing what has changed in today's dating culture—and whether finding real love is harder than ever.

Grab a drink and pull up a chair as we tackle:

• Dating apps vs. real-life connections

• Ghosting, breadcrumbing, and situationships

• Social media's impact on relationships

• Gender roles and dating expectations

• Why so many people are frustrated with dating today

• What singles can do to navigate the madness
