First Date with Lauren Compton, a weekly podcast where first impressions will NEVER be forgotten.
Finding a decent person to date is hard work, and comedian/viral content creator Lauren Compton is here to get to the bottom of it. It’s a dirty job, but someone’s gotta do it. Weekly, Lauren invites celebrity guests on to have a first date with her and figures out how many red flags they have, if they’re dateable, AND if there will be a second date! Dating is a wild ride… strap in!
Lauren Compton: The Dallas, TX native has amassed quite the following across all forms of social media with her highly-entertaining content, although her IG bio recommends that you “don’t show your mom.” Actress and standup comedian known for appearing on Showtime’s I’m Dying Up Here and HBO’s Here, Now. She also earned a leading role in the Justin Lin feature film HELP. Compton is a regular performer at various high-profile comedy clubs, including Comedy Mothership and Hollywood Improv.
On this week’s episode, Lauren sits down with actress, singer, and all-around powerhouse Christy Carlson Romano for a hilarious and revealing deep dive into love, dating, and life in the spotlight.
The two talk about karma babies—whether the universe really pays you back in the romance department—and spill the tea on dating actors (spoiler: they’re all kinda gay). They break down pick-up lines, man hands, and how Christy fell hard for the city of Austin. The conversation gets juicy as they dish on Matt Rife, serial cheaters, and Christy’s completely impossible proposal story—seriously, it’s next-level.
Plus, Christy shares her intense experience on the reality competition show Special Forces and what it takes to push yourself to the limit.
From Hollywood heartbreaks to hilarious dating disasters, this episode is packed with laughs, honesty, and a little bit of chaos—just the way we like it. Don’t miss it!
