Listen "4. Persistence Pays Off"
Episode Synopsis
"Persistence Pays Off" offers a glimpse at how dating culture 30 years ago mirrors some of what singles experience today. The story begins in 1995, when Mike, a 32-year-old Bay Area transplant from Los Angeles, puts an ad in the Jewish Bulletin's personals section. He receives a promising response to his ad from a woman named Gwynne, who's interested in meeting him for a date. Unlike the guys Gwynne's met in the past, who have ghosted her and played games, hear her reaction when she meets Mike, a straightforward, no-nonsense mensch.
