Well, this is described as a podcast on audible. I listened to all the available episodes, 11, and it was a mixed bag. Mostly, lightly describing a bunch of bad behaviors during dating life. I have a couple of stories that would fit in the theme. Gabi is a "self-described dating expert" who interviewed people and then had an expert, usually someone former FBI, talk to the person and give some advice to them and to anyone listening about how to avoid or perhaps handle the situation "next" time. I'm glad I listened to it.

Extremely catchy title which got my attention. But is it a book? No! It’s a series of 10 formulaic podcasts whereby traumatic relationship scenarios are presented to the very engaging host / author who elicits the story before politely deferring to an expert to weigh in on the horrible experience to add meaningful content and effectively run a mini therapy session. Very useful and informative content which I say place in my work resource library.

Why not five stars? A. It’s not a book. B. The author’s perky tone was very engaging but may have led some of the survivors to echo that perkiness making it incongruous listening - an upbeat tone discussing horrible and potentially triggering content.

Hoping that the podcasts continue beyond this Audible offering.

Not a bad podcast, but the title had me expecting something else. I think “Am I Dating a Jerk?” would be more accurate. Still, the 10 episodes are okay and offer good advice from experts.
