The Love U Podcast with Evan Marc Katz

Evan Marc Katz is a dating coach who has made a career out of being direct, and his podcast reflects that. He primarily speaks to smart, successful women who want lasting relationships but keep running into the same problems -- attracting the wrong people, tolerating bad behavior too long, or struggling with the gap between what they want and what they are willing to accept. Episodes alternate between solo coaching segments and guest interviews, running anywhere from 14 to 57 minutes, with most landing around the 20- to 30-minute mark. That brevity is a strength. Katz makes a point, illustrates it with real scenarios, and moves on. He has coached over 13,000 women through his Love U course, and his blog has reached 35 million readers, so the podcast draws on a deep well of experience with actual dating situations. The show has 439 episodes, a 4.7-star rating, and about 570 reviews. Some listeners have noted that episodes can open with a slightly cynical edge before settling into genuinely useful territory, and the show does skew heavily toward heterosexual dating dynamics. But the advice is practical in a way that sticks -- boundaries, standards, and pattern recognition rather than vague encouragement. If you have ever left a dating advice podcast thinking "okay, but what do I actually do differently," Katz is the antidote to that frustration.
