Description
This week, we're diving into the world of dating as we discuss how websites and apps have changed the dating landscape. With social media platforms being pushed to have a legal duty of care to protect the most vulnerable, we ask if apps like Tinder, Hinge and Bumble need to safeguard their users. Oz talks race fetishes, Suhail talks bikinis, and Alex is spending the episode trying to get everyone else into relationships. PLUS: we share some of our listeners' worst dating stories. ------------------------------------------------- Music by Grapes & Evan Schaeffer ------------------------------------------------- Our live event is May 30th at the Royal Institution with Angela Saini (@AngelaDSaini) to discuss her new book Superior.  We'll be discussing the re-emergence of race science and dissecting the political roots of race, why scientists can’t seem to look beyond it, and the dark and dangerous ways in which scientific racism still exists today.  BUY YOUR TICKETS RIGHT HERE  ------------------------------------------------- Follow us on social media and send us your questions!
