Say g'day to Episode 2 of Mads World: Stood Up Comedy! This episode focuses on one of the seven deadly dating sins: standing someone up. You’re going to hear from both me and my good friend Sam Williams, on two very different tales of treachery, after a quick round of Speed Date questions first. The lesson from both being that it’s okay to have a laugh at yourself. It’s important to be honest about these things, and understand we’re all just toy story aliens squashed in a vending machine, living the same little lives.

Hello and welcome to Mads World. My name is Maddy Carty but you can call me Mads, I'm in my twenties, from Melbourne and have been living in London for the last five years or so. I talk with experts, comedians, TikTok creators, Love Island stars, friends, authors, anonymous guests and more about the trials and tribulations, as well as the hilarity and frivolity of dating and modern love in London and around the globe. We talk everything from dating apps, catfishing and being stood up to sugar dating, awkward sexual encounters and all sorts of juicy bits and bobs. I’ll be putting myself on the dissection table a lot, as well as sharing your funniest, scariest and more tragic dating tales.  If this sounds like a bit of you, make sure you follow, like and subscribe to be notified when episodes are released weekly. I promise not to disappoint! Peace. Music by @The.Jones.Project_93
