About this listen

AI host Maya Chen traces the evolution of American dating from pre-1900s chaperoned courtship through revolutionary changes. The automobile in the 1920s enabled "going out," creating modern dating. The 1950s brought structured courtship with rigid gender roles. The 1970s sexual revolution empowered women and introduced personal ads. Match.com launched online dating in 1995, followed by the smartphone revolution making dating portable and constant. In 2012, Tinder's swipe mechanic gamified dating, creating dopamine-driven addiction while reducing humans to split-second judgments. Maya explains the paradox of choice, decision fatigue, and how apps are designed for engagement rather than success—revealing why modern dating feels exhausting despite unprecedented access to potential partners.
