Over the past almost four years, Chris and Erika have shared their trials, tribulations, successes, heartaches, and plenty of advice. And can’t forget the laughs. They can’t thank you enough for being loyal listeners each and every week. They know Sundays won’t be the same, yet all good things must come to an end. 

If you want to reach out, they will still be active on social media, or you can send an email directly to Erika at erika@alittlenudge.com.

Best of luck to everyone on their online dating journeys. Erika and Chris will be with you in spirit.

From birds to dogs to the random chinchilla, when you date someone with a pet, you may also be inviting that critter into your life, whether you like it or not. This week, we re-share a fan-favorite story of a date getting interrupted (this story is not “for the birds”), and then Erika and Chris discuss the implications on a relationship when someone treats your pet differently from how you might. 

It’s a strange and unsettling time in the world for everyone in all aspects of their lives. Chris and Erika are here to talk about how to navigate the dating scene now that in-person dates are off the table. Should you just wait? Or maybe take a video date in your living room with a glass of wine in hand? One guest shares her experiences, and then Chris and Erika give some advice for creating successful video dates and beyond. 

In this day and age, with technology everywhere we look, it’s easy to forget that people are, well, people. When you set up a date with someone, there’s a real person at the other end of the equation. So, if you don’t show up, it affects both of you. The moral: Don’t stand people up. It’s a terrible thing to do, and it makes your date feel even worse. Erika and Chris both share stories about Bumble dates — poof — not appearing as planned.

Tinder got you down? Not getting responses from your Bumble matches? Sick of all of the matches on Hinge who just write “hey there” to you? On this week’s episode, Erika and Chris do a deep dive into the dating apps — everything from what you write in your profile to how to speedily get to the first date. Have dating app questions? This episode is for you.
