About this listen


Every gay guy who’s spent time on Grindr has seen it, the bios that immediately make you pause, laugh, or close the app. In this episode of the Gay Rugby Podcast, Jack Higgins and Ozzie Luna talk through some of the worst things people put in their Grindr bios, the profile lines that have somehow become normal on gay dating apps, and the small details that turn a profile into an instant red flag.The conversation drifts into catfish scams on Grindr and other dating apps, something both of them say they’re seeing more often. Fake profiles, strange messages, and the moment when a normal conversation suddenly turns into someone asking for money. If you’ve spent time on gay hookup apps or dating apps for gay men, you’ve probably seen the pattern.The episode also includes a recap of Swamp Romp 2026 in New Orleans, a weekend that brings together teams from across the gay rugby community for a tournament and a lot of time off the field. While in New Orleans, Jack and Ozzie linked up with players from Round Rock Rugby, Austin’s LGBTQ-inclusive rugby team, and spent the weekend around the broader inclusive rugby scene.New Orleans has its own inclusive rugby presence as well with teams like the Crescent City Rougaroux, an LGBTQ-inclusive rugby club founded in 2017 that focuses on building community through the sport.The episode moves between tournament stories, travel, dating app culture, and the overlap between gay sports culture and the realities of modern gay dating. It’s a mix of rugby stories, Grindr observations, and the kind of conversations that happen after a tournament weekend when everyone’s back from the pitch and scrolling their phones again.Empowered by Friend of Dorothyhttps://www.friendofdorothy.comSubscribe for more episodes of the Gay Rugby Podcast covering gay rugby, LGBTQ athletes, gay sports culture, and the conversations that happen around the sport.Filmed, edited and produced by Jack HigginsExecutive Producer Ozzie LunaConnect with The Gay Rugby Podcast on social media!
