Your Questions Answered—
We sure can! ‘The Monthly Challenge’ is in the form of an exclusive podcast episode that you can listen to on your podcast feed or within Patreon. Each month, we’ll help you reframe your mindset on common challenges by giving you actionable tips to put into practice. You’ll be able to reflect on the changes either on your own or in an optional discussion group with others in the community.
The ‘Dateable After-Show’ is a monthly hour-long interactive event with the Dateable team or fireside chats with past guests. You’ll be able to participate in the event and/or ask the questions you’re dying to know in a more intimate setting. There will also be a chance to break-out with smaller groups when applicable to foster your connections more deeply with other members.
The ‘Dating Council’ is a way to bring your dating questions or dilemmas directly to Yue & Julie in a private setting. You’ll be able to sign up once a month for a 20 minute slot to present your conundrum and get some sound advice. This is limited to 10 members right now due to our bandwidth. See the tiers to decide what works best for you. All tiers also include discounts on Dateable merch in addition to having priority access to asking questions during the monthly ask-us-anything livestream.
When do these events happen?
The first Thursday of every month you’ll receive the guided monthly challenge. You can listen to this whenever but we recommend starting after it’s released to maximize your month!
The second Thursday of the month will be the public ask-us-anything live stream via the Facebook group followed by a virtual happy hour. You’ll be able to add your questions up until midnight the Wednesday before.
The third Thursday of every month will be the Dateable after-show virtual live event. If you can’t attend, you’ll be able to watch the video whenever.
The fourth Thursday of every month will be the monthly challenge discussion group which will be part of the weekly virtual happy hour. All events happen at 5:30 PM PST / 8:30 PM EST.
How do I listen to the guided monthly challenge?
You will get a personalized podcast feed that you can add to your favorite podcast app that supports a private RSS feed. You can listen directly through Apple Podcasts, Castro, Downcast, Overcast, PocketCasts, Podcast Addict, and more. After adding the private feed once, you’ll automatically get each new episode every month. It’s pretty straight forward but will send you instructions after joining and will be available for support if you need it. Unfortunately, Spotify doesn’t allow for private RSS feeds but you can also listen via the Patreon app or website.
Where do these events take place?
The virtual event will be via a zoom link that will be sent through Patreon to members. The ask-us-anything live-stream will be via Facebook live in the Facebook group. The happy hours will continue in Facebook rooms within the Facebook group. The monthly challenge discussion group will also take place in ‘The Sounding Board VIP Lounge’ Facebook room.
Do I have to participate in events?
Nope, if you want a solo experience, you can purely listen to the guided monthly challenge. It is completely optional to participate in the discussion around it. If you want to watch the live stream or the Dateable after-show, you can also do that via video.
What if I have more questions?
Feel free to send us an email to support@dateablpodcast.com and we’ll answer your questions!
