1. The State Of Online Dating - MTP340 Scot McKay 47:27

Co-Host Nick Sparks (https://mountaintoppodcast.com/sparks) Nick Sparks is one of the OGs in the men’s dating space, so he and I have known each other and respected each other’s work for, wow…fifteen years now. So when Nick started a series of Facebook posts singing the praises of online dating and apps in THIS day and age, it caught my attention…and raised my eyebrows. Nevertheless, fully realizing Nick typically knows what he’s talking about, I invited him onto the show for a friendly debate on the current state of meeting women online. Right off the bat, I’m happy to report this conversation does not disappoint. What are YOU guys reporting to me, compared to the reports NICK is getting? And since Nick is single right now, what is his personal experience like these days? What are the pros and cons of meeting women online compared to meeting them IRL? How many of them are recent developments, and how many are basically the same as they’ve ever been? What changes have the developers of dating sites and apps made that may or may not benefit themselves more than their users? Discover which app both Nick and I agree is unquestionably the best one right now…and the one we both say to steer clear of. Now that said, Nick and I differ considerably when it comes to our respective opinions on Bumble. So is Bumble’s policy of women messaging first a problem or an opportunity? What do those women on Bumble really mean when they ask, ‘What are you looking for?’ In the end, you’ll find out how much Nick and I actually agree on vs. ‘agreeing to disagree’, but one fact is certain…if you want to meet women online, this episode will be an instant help to you. Let’s face it, people are being social again and it’s time for YOU to meet more women. Talk to me for free when you get on my schedule at https://mountaintoppodcast.com

Scot McKay Dating Strategist

Scot McKay has shared bad jokes with North Korean military officers, sipped coffee at Pablo Escobar’s home (served by his maid), survived a shark attack while surfing, held his breath as the pride of lions walked by his tent, and blitzed through California canyons with his knee on the double-yellow line at 140 mph. Yet somehow, he has also been referred to as the “sane one” on Twitter by Scott Adams, of all people.

But despite once being mobbed by the Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders, being able to back a 30′ travel trailer into its slot on the first try, and that time he beat the World Champion at his own sport (no details provided), he’s still the most objective and down-to-earth dating expert out there.

He’s also the most fluff-free fountainhead of original content in his field, if only because that’s what seventeen years of immersive geekery on the subject does for someone.

Scot’s wife Emily is his “proof of concept”, given that she’s just as sweet as she is smokin’ hot and still gets carded at her age. But you’ll never hear her brag about any of that, only Scot.

His show The Mountain Top has also been named a Top 10 Dating Podcast by DatingAdvice.com, and a long time ago Grader.com weirdly ranked Scot the #1 most influential Facebook user in the world.
