A No-BS Podcast About the Single Life After 30
Welcome to You Single?—the podcast for those of us navigating singlehood in our 30s, 40s, and beyond. Hosted by your favorite friendly Sasquatch, Joel Poppert, and the fiery and fabulous Emanuela Messineo (aka “E”), this show is for anyone who’s ever swiped left, been ghosted (or done the ghosting), and questioned whether dating apps are completely broken.
We’re here to talk about the reality of single life as grown-ass adults. Dating? Sure. But also, the joys (and occasional disasters) of being unattached. From cringey first dates to the freedom of doing whatever the hell you want, we cover it all—unfiltered, unscripted, and fully embracing our middle-aged dorkiness.
Expect hilarious rants, real talk, and the occasional deep dive into why the fuck it’s so hard to meet people these days. Whether you’re actively dating, happily single, or just vibing in between, You Single? is your place to laugh, commiserate, and own this chapter of your life.
💥 Bonus Content: Midlife Uncensored 💥
For when we’re not talking about dating, we bring you Midlife Uncensored—a no-holds-barred sub-series where we rip the band-aid off midlife. From career shifts and parenting chaos to reinventing ourselves (or just trying to survive the day), this is where we get real about the highs, lows, and WTF moments of getting older. No filters, no sugarcoating—just raw, relatable stories and plenty of humor.
So, are you single? Let’s mingle. And if you’re just here to laugh at the absurdity of midlife—well, we’ve got that covered too.

Overcoming Adversity and Living a Meaningful Life ft. Scott Fischer
In this episode, I am joined by the Co-Host of The Single Dads Podcast, Scott Fischer, where he opens up about his journey as a man and single father after losing both his mother at an early age followed by losing his wife, the love of his life, to cancer when their son was only 5 years old. His story is one of not just overcoming adversity, but of a man impacted and certainly changed by loss, but not defined by it. He shares stories of getting past drama, helping other single dads, raising a fine young man as a single father, dating, traveling all of the world, and just doing his best to maintain perspective so he can keep on living a meaningful life full of awareness and empathy. Scott is an extraordinary person, and it was a privilege to host him on the podcast and set the groundwork for a new meaningful friend in my life!
