3 JUN 2025 · John, 47, from Wexford seemed like the dream - charming, funny, attentive and everything a woman could want. But behind the charm was a darker truth: compulsive lying, cheating, stealing, drugs, manipulation, and worse.
This multi-part series shares the real experiences of the women he deceived, not just to tell their stories, but to help protect others. If you recognise him, or his behaviour, this podcast might save you from going through the same.
These are the stories of the women he fooled... starting with Monica.

27 MAY 2025 · Meet Filthy John - a charming, funny, Wexford man.
Women who meet him are quickly drawn in, convinced they’ve finally found the one. He knows exactly what to say, how to say it, and when to say it. But behind the charm is something much darker…
A prolific liar. A manipulator. A thief. An addict. A mentally abusive serial cheater.
This multi-part podcast series exposes the real man behind the mask - and the trail of devastation he leaves behind.
He targets single mothers, preying on vulnerability while spinning lies that destroy lives.
This is not just a cautionary tale – it’s a warning to single women dating, especially in the east / south east.
Listen to the trailer now.

13 MAY 2025 · Today I’m joined by the gas Megan Burke – a singer-songwriter from Swords who’s had more than her fair share of shit-shows. We’re covering her cheating ex, the horrors she’s encountered on dating apps (including getting blocked on Tinder - but it's mostly just the messages from men), and what it’s like dating as a "BIG SEXY RIDE". You can look forward to stories about immature men, creepy fetish requests, and some grim date experiences. Megan’s a laugh a minute so stick the kettle on and enjoyyyy.

29 APR 2025 · Today I’m joined by Adam Lane Smith, also known as Attachment Adam, a global expert in attachment theory, author, speaker, and former marriage and family therapist.
Adam breaks down attachment theory in a way that's easy to understand so if you were ever wondering why a fella acts so all-over-the-place and you simply can't understand him - you might find some answers today. We also chat about some other hot topics, including why women settle for situationships, how women are wired for stability, and the concept of emotional impermanence. If you enjoy a bit of science and understanding what's going on in our bodies, there will be lots of words like oxytocin, GABA, cortisol, dopamine, and serotonin being mentioned.
No blind date couple this week - sorry guys! More to come soooon.

15 APR 2025 · The two TikTok gals, Kasey Campion and Lauren Murtagh, fill me in on just how hard it is trying to find a decent fella these days. Both only in their early 20s, but they have been THROUGH it - cheaters, weirdos and everything in between.
PLUS, I’m catching up with a blind date I set up between two of my own pals (from totally different parts of my life) who have both been unlucky in love. Did I finally make a match? Probably not. Tune in to find out 👀💘
This episode is sponsored by Wicklow Sports Partnership – setting people up on blind dates (on bikes!) for Bike Week, May 10–18 🚴♀️🍕

18 MAR 2025 · Dating coach Erika Ettin, also known as 'A Little Nudge' online, joins me for the first of two episodes on all things dating; best practices, how to craft the perfect bio, staying resilient, and changing your mindset for the better whilst putting yourself out there. You might be deep in the apps or wondering why you're still single, so hopefully Erika’s advice is the nudge you need! And at the end I’m catching up with Stephen and Aisling, a couple I set up on a blind date who… let’s just say, didn’t have the smoothest experience. God love them 😅
