Mackenzie Oster, NYC-based writer and fabulous single girl about town, joins Lit Hein to talk about dating in NYC and how to make your dating profile better.

We break down what makes a great Hinge opener, the best (and worst) messages she’s ever gotten, and share dating app tips—including how to take better profile pictures and avoid coming off... well, like a total freak.

We play Chic or Freak and do rapid fire dating questions. We cover topics like:

  • Does a guy having too many girl friends freak you out?
  • Should everyone get plus ones at weddings?
  • Can age gaps actually work?
  • Should women offer to pay for dates?
  • And do toupees deserve the hate?


Please remember in the Literally Heinous universe, hot takes and controversial opinions are always welcome! So don't be clutching your pearls ;)
