Marathon Dates vs. Coffee Dates w Ricky Liorti & Tara Cannistraci | Ask a Matchmaker Podcast Matchmaker Maria

This week, Matchmaker Maria and comedian Tara Cannistraci, AKA Tara Jokes are joined by Ricky Liorti, the man behind the viral "boyfriend application" that took the internet by storm! Despite receiving thousands of DMs from potential matches, Ricky never went on a single date—but now he's here to talk all things dating in 2025.

In this episode, Ricky shares his love for marathon first dates, insisting they should be extravagant, unforgettable, and last 7–8 hours. Matchmaker Maria fiercely disagrees, advocating for short and simple coffee dates (no more than 2 hours!) as the perfect way to build a connection without falling into the trap of love bombing.

It's a lively debate filled with hot takes about first dates, relationships, and the modern dating world. Plus, Maria shares her expert advice to help Ricky rethink his dating strategy for the year ahead. Don't miss this fun and insightful conversation!
