About this episode
This week on The Labia Lounge pod, I sit down with Conor and Xander, from Human Love Quest—a live, on-stage dating show! HLQ is a potent antidote to the monotony (and, let's face it, dehumanisation) of dating apps! We dive into the world of “dating in the wild,” exploring how to cultivate confidence, approach connections in real life, and maybe even find your own meet-cute moment.Conor and Xander pull back the curtain on what it’s really like to host their inclusive, hilarious, and surprisingly wholesome dating show, plus, we get real about how the pandemic, tech, and social shifts have transformed how we socialize and search for love in 2025.You’ll hear confessions about awkward early sex ed (shoutout to Harold the Giraffe), real-talk about social anxiety and dating app fatigue, and practical tips on how to put yourself out there without feeling like a creep—or a walking rejection waiting to happen.Highlights include:The inspo behind Human Love Quest and what actually happens at their eventsWhy we’re more anxious, less socially skilled, and lonelier than ever—and how live dating events and taking some risks with new connections IRL can bridge the gapFun (and cringe) stories from the "Ahoy There" love notes barrelPractical, modern advice for both men and women to make authentic connections in person, even if it’s terrifying!The reality of dating apps—what they help with, what they mess up, and how much they’re monetising our lonelinessIf you’re craving authentic connection, ready to ditch the apps (at least for a night), or just want to laugh and learn about love in the modern age, this episode is for you.
