Pick-Up Artists Are Human Trash (From the DKS Vault)
15/07/2022 Duración: 01h17minThe DKS summer break continues with another classic episode from October 2019! Pick-up artists aren't artists of any kind.

But how do Sarah and Adam really feel about it? Listen as your Dating Kinda Sucks hosts talk about platonic cuddling, actual ways to engage with women, and why anyone who thinks pick-up artistry works is an unadulterated moron who will die alone, wondering why they never made a real connection with another human being.
