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 Compton sits down with Ari Shaffir for what might be the least helpful dating advice you’ll ever hear. They get into first date red flags, weird turn-offs, and why Ari operates like someone who’s never worried about a second date. From being chronically late to oversharing immediately, he pretty much lays out a blueprint for what not to do—while somehow making it work anyway. They also bounce through topics like only children vs. siblings, traveling the world solo, late-night energy shifts, and the kind of stories that start normal and end… not normal.
