We Met At Acme

Lindsey Metselaar has been hosting We Met At Acme since 2017, making it one of the OG dating podcasts in a space that has gotten very crowded since. The show bills itself as a lifestyle tool for the next generation of adults, and while that sounds broad, the episodes consistently circle back to attachment styles, red flags, therapy, and the messy specifics of modern romance. Metselaar interviews dating experts, licensed therapists, celebrities, and influencers, but she also does solo episodes that tend to be shorter and more focused. Recent guests have included Mel Robbins and Taylor Lautner, which gives you a sense of the show's range. Episodes run 30 to 65 minutes and drop weekly through the Dear Media network. With 444 episodes and a 4.2-star rating from over 2,400 reviews, it has built a loyal audience over the years. Metselaar brings an astrology-curious sensibility to some episodes, which will either appeal to you or not -- she does not force it. Listeners have praised a recent pivot back toward core dating and relationship content after a period where the show drifted into broader lifestyle territory. The tone is warm, occasionally wise, and never condescending. If you want a dating podcast that has actually evolved alongside the culture it covers, this one has the track record to prove it.
