    Thank You
    I’ve just heard your podcast about the fires here in LA. I really appreciate you sharing that with everybody. I could really relate with so much that you said I too had to get ready to evacuate and then didn’t have to. I had the same exact experience with my neighbors who had grown up here. I loved hearing about how you navigated that. And I really appreciate it hearing how great it was to have a partner to help you do all that which is all to resume my quest in earnest for that person in my life. Thank you, Evan. You really make a big difference by sharing your experience and hope and strength. Best.

    Unsure At First
    I began listening last summer and wasn't sure if I agreed with Evan's approach. But I still listened because I really really wanted to accept what he was saying. After a few months, he slowly won me over and now I listen weekly. Resisting his messages will only lead to heartbreak if you truly want a healthy and loving relationship. While I am not what people would call successful and I'm not currently dating, while I work on myself, it is great to listen to the advice that he gives. You can tell that he loves what he does and that he truly wants to help women find successful relationships. Thank you, Evan for this amazingly wonderful podcast!

    Your guest Carol the Astrologer
    Hi Marc, I truly enjoy your modern day, common sense, and practical dating and relationship advice. I truly have learned a lot and often go back to replay certain podcast episodes that resonate profoundly with me. On occasion, you have a guest, Astrologer Carol, on your show. And while I appreciate Carol’s input, her disruptive laughter at times is very annoying and distorts the depth and intellect of your message. It would be ok in a loosely social setting to burst into laughter, but in the podcast it is super distracting to the message or learning of the content.

    I see it a little differently
    On masculine energy: I don’t love the definition of masculine energy as an energy that doesn’t like to be directed or corrected. I see that as narcissistic energy. I think manly behavior would aim to take into account correction and direction, if it helped to benefit what he actually loved. As would feminine energy. The better sides of both would. Brave enough to be humbled for the better, on the lookout to prevent harm, provide for other & improve himself, & not taking needless digs, that would be a masculine energy I would be interested in finding. The other sounds like one to defer to and tip toe around. Ultimately that is not a form of strength, from either person involved.
  • FoneyBaloneyToney
    Best advice around!
    Evan is like a caring brother, watching out for you and sharing his insights. He is to the point but yet supportive. His podcasts aren’t filled with fluff…they get to exactly what you need to hear and lay out what to do to respect yourself and your relationship.
  • Esa May
    Outstanding dating and relationship podcast
    My review is overdue. I’ve listened to a bunch of different dating and relationship podcasts over the years and yours is my absolute favorite. Thanks for what you do! I’m really grateful!
  • Morganelena86
    Make an episode for single moms!
    I like the show but it seems to be geared toward a very specific demographic of singles in their mid to late 40s and 50s (and 60s?) that have more time on their hands. With all the good advice, I was just wondering what Marc would have to say to people in their 30s, single moms and people that have minimal time on their hands.

    Great, Practical and Thoughtful Advice on Dating
    I recently started listening to this podcast and am quite impressed with the advice and information that is discussed. These podcasts are thoughtful and practical and are also a great reminder of how important communication and confidence are in any intimate relationship.
  • Kelly Bonanno
    Advice single women need to hear!
    Fantastic podcast, Evan gives honest, practical, realistic advice that works. He gets it.
  • Dragonflypeach
    I feel seen
    I’ve been listening to Evan’s podcast for a couple of years and there is always amazing insights but wow….as an 8 years divorced woman dating and in a relationship, the most recent podcast about why I’m reluctant to commit felt like months of therapy in one episode. So much truth to unpack. Thank you Evan for your guided wisdom!
  • Lucy03330
    Insightful podcast
    I am so glad I found the Love U podcast and Evan. His podcasts are insightful and leave me with a new piece of wisdom. I feel like I have learned a lot about men and dating. I even enjoy listening to old episodes because I love his content so much. I think everyone would benefit from his advice!
  • M.Cat Realsy
    Entertaining if nothing else
    I listen to this podcast as a guy just to hear how women think, so to speak. Though I'm not interested in the type of women who Evan is trying to appeal to (I.e. high earners! Always traveling...) And since he says that 90 percent of guys out there are worthless, at least for these women, I'm sure I am in the 90 percent. But most of his advice is not bad until I heard him give an example of a text in this recent podcast. If you know nothing about Costa Rica say something like, "Don't know much about Costa Rica, if it is an island....but I hear it is great for..." If some woman is unsure if Costa Rica is an island or not the I would really question her intelligence. Just sounds dumb.

    Cultural bias?
    Careful to consider your own bias when presenting your views on dating as we get older. For example- not ALL individuals in their 20s graduate from college, or take all those years to settle down. Much of what you describe represents the experiences of white, upper middle class here in the US. Thanks.
  • Ceajaye
    New Listener!
    Hi Evan, I just listened to, “5 Dating Boundaries…”, “A Man Who Loves You…” and “The No Contact Rule…” and I really enjoyed hearing your perspective on these topics. I am in agreement! It’s so good to have found you!
  • Lori72one
    Timely information
    I worked with Evan during the initial LoveU program, and have followed him for years prior. The podcasts are still very informative and new and I enjoy the refresher course. Love getting a man's perspective on love and relationships. Evan I like your new format of podcast.
  • scissortail flycatcher
    Evan is the real deal
    Evan is the guy who tells you the things you don’t want to hear. He has a great course on preparing oneself for finding live; a six month web-based curriculum called LoveU. He helps identify the factors that are keeping you from finding love. He has a straightforward manner and he will tell it like it is so be prepared for that. He truly loves women, and loves his work. He wants strong, successful women who have found love elusive, to find a lasting love with a good man. Highly recommend.

    Our dating coach
    I stumbled on EMK several Months ago when he was interviewed on a different dating podcast. I have been tuning into his work ever since. His advice is always straightforward and includes examples from his real life clients. He references sound research, studies and thoughts from other experts. I love that he often brings it back to his own happy marriage to remind us of why we are putting ourselves through this!
  • muthiegoose
    He’s a genius
    These podcasts are very good and unbelievably helpful… why is something that should be so natural so HARD? Evan tells you things “like it is” and helps you see through your own smokescreens. I’m definitely going to keep listening! Ok I’ve now binged about 4 years’ worth of episodes… Evan is becoming like Benjamin Button as I’ve gone back in time… he’s getting younger, his kids are getting younger, his time in the field is shortening… but every episode has some gem, along with his innate kindness, witticisms, metaphors, etc. I just love it when his answer is to dump a guy who’s not treating you right. So refreshing!!

    Good to get a guys perspective
    No nonsense dating advice that gives women hope
  • Mom212004
    Self examination Is just the start
    I find Evan a bit like my yearly mammogram and colonoscopy! They aren’t always comfortable but the results are important and often differ from what I see in self exams! Evan has made me look at my own self image, biases and both positive and negative personality traits in a new way. His advice, for me, has been priceless and helped me in much more than just my dating life. You have to know yourself and your worth and he does a tremendous job of enabling you to do that FIRST, before jumping into the dating pool yet again. Also, the other women I have met in his coaching group have been amazing, insightful and are becoming wonderful friends-and finding someone with a similar story to connect with is just good for my soul. At times, I have wanted to maybe punch Evan in the face for his candor which is why I really enjoyed this new podcast. As a coach, Evan will often look at things in a couple of different ways and even admit that he ‘might’ be wrong occasionally. I just don’t know if any other coaches who would make that a title of a podcast and admit it publicly! Things like this make me appreciate Evan, and it shows the vulnerability that he teaches us that we need to share.

    Simple and to the point
    I have been listening to Evan’s podcasts for a year now and I always find myself ending the episode with a new insight or an idea on my approach with dating or an internal work that I need to do to get better results. Thanks so much Evan for your content! ✨
  • Lisa2164
    Excellent Podcast!
    I love listening to EMK! He’s a really cool guy with lots of wisdom. It’s definitely one of my favorite podcasts. I’m a paid Substack subscriber now too and it’s worth every penny!
  • sarahrnc
    EMK tells it how it is
    I’m a Love U graduate as of spring 2023, and that was hands down one of the best investments I’ve made in my love life. I continue to enjoy listening to this podcast and subscribe to Evan’s Lovesplaining on Substack because I find his advice so valuable. Evan is going to tell you how most men think, regardless of whether that’s something you like. I’m currently in a great relationship with someone I wouldn’t have considered dating before Love U. If this one doesn’t work out long term, I will absolutely be following Evan’s advice to find another partner, as it’s so effective given the reality of dating nowadays.
  • Devi Pritpal
    Great dating help!
    Thank you Evan for a fresh take on dating especially coming from a man! Loving the tips!!!
  • TMH89
    Very helpful and realistic advice
    I have been following Evan for some time now and the podcast summarizes his insights on dating for women in an easy way to understand and apply. 10/10, I do recommend!
  • ZemblaS
    Highly recommended
    I am a 74 year old widow who is tired of being alone and contemplating trying on-line dating. I have watched a number of dating coach podcasts and have found Evan Marc Katz’s to be the most articulate and logical. His numerous postings are filled with common sense advice and a generous dose of encouragement.
  • Annamolly1063
    Good advice
    Evan gives insights into relationships in ways you might not think of. I’ve learned many different ways to think about being in a relationship with the right person
  • Testing, testing, 1,2,3
    Great advice
    I highly recommend Evan Marc Katz’ podcasts and his eBook Why He Disappeared. You can be proactive about your dating life, read his eBook and listen to his podcasts before making any (major) dating mistakes or having men disappear on you. His advice is more traditional, but makes a lot of sense.
  • Marie13T
    Informative
    Informative and intuitive. A more insightful approach.
  • Ms Always Learning
    Evan tells you what you need to hear
    I’ve been listening to Evan for a while and reading his blog even longer. If you’re looking for a solid relationship and are having trouble finding it or keeping it, Evan has you covered. Many times what he says isn’t easy to hear, but it’s what you need if you’re still looking. Even for those who are in relationships, you know that there are still issues and problems that happen and you may need some advice. Evan has you covered here too. I highly recommend Evan’s podcasts and Love U blogs as there is something you can learn about relationships in them.

  • Clearwater2
    Time well- spent
    I’ve been following Evan for a while, and have learned countless tips that have made me a better person! No doubt, Happiness is an inside job. Evan’s approach with keen observations, brutal honesty, wit and wisdom have brought me so much clarity, motivation and growth at my own pace. Give Evan a try!!! He is a talented eye and heart opener who knows how to encourage smiles around every corner…

    Great podcast
    I’ve been following Evan for years…his content is spot on and has helped me navigate dating
  • Abstract Aaron

    This dude is a sad simp
  • IHATEDISNEYCHANNELLLL
    Used to be great content.
    Now it seems like he’s starting to defend and normalize some of men’s behavior (verses explaining it) in recent episodes and content. It’s also seems like a sales grab recently, like every young dating coach on Instagram. The older episodes are better and the content still holds today. The dating industry in the 2020s is so sketchy!
  • Mary Alouette
    Always useful
    I binge listen to this podcast. It’s full of such great actionable advice and perspectives on dating and relationships. I’m learning a lot from it and I think it’s changed the course of my dating in a very positive way. Thank you, Evan! Highly recommend.

    No longer Useful Information
    This used to be a decent podcast but now it’s only 5 minutes clips to get you to go to his paid site.
  • Jul4788
    Unfollowing due to “teases”
    I used to like this show, but I’m not wasting my time any longer on a short tease to become a paid subscriber. I understand wanting to push your subscription but posting a new episode only for it to contain zero information is a waste of my time.
  • Olivey0u2
    Disappointed
    I used to LOVE this podcast! Listened every single day and to every episode… but now they are “just a tease” episodes and you need to be some sort of paid listener on one of this platforms to hear anything. So the listening will start with something good and then he’ll say “I hate to be just a tease but go become a subscriber if you want to hear more”— I get that it’s a smart technique for him to make more moola, however, now there are not really any decent episodes to listen to at all… so maybe don’t have it on a free podcast streaming service because it’s just frustrating to listeners. I’m definitely disappointed :(
  • MissMegs702
    Pretty great, mostly!
    I’ve been listening to Evan’s podcast for the better part of a year or more, and I’ve found his advice practical and incredibly helpful. It’s encouraging to have ideas and strategies that are counter to find a serious relationship in today’s culture. We don’t have to play along with this no rules, emotionally avoidant dating environment. There are a number of episodes I’ve listened to multiple times - sometimes I need a refresher. He gets a lot of flack for his ideas around waiting to have sex, which boggles my mind. I can tell you as a Christian with an extremely conservative sexual ethic, he has a extremely liberal position. I’m still able to apply his principles in how dating. If I had one minor wish - would be if he were a little more includsive/supportive surrounding preferences for a partner within the same religion - but I can understand why he isn’t. Don’t throw the baby out with the bathwater, tons of goodness here in this podcast!
  • LACarolyn626
    Evan is in my corner!
    I think of Evan Marc Katz as “Uncle Evan,” a trusted man who has my best intentions at heart and gives me wise and effective advice. I like how he emphasizes that he doesn’t judge us when we make mistakes or missteps, he simply looks at dating and gives advice from the lens of “is this effective to get the result or better option?” His advice gives us the power! I love thinking that I can be the one in control of my destiny and in the seat of CEO of my love life. He gives me so much confidence, thanks Evan!
  • ClairePDX12
    Behind paywall
    Good advice but it seems new episodes are all behind a paywall so not sure what the plan of the show going forward is.
  • Podcast fan N.O.
    Practical advice
    Evan gives very straightforward, practical dating and relationship advice. His podcasts definitely help listeners make better dating decisions if they apply his recommendations.
  • susiepartdeux
    Needed advice
    Reminds me to be less callous when thinking about relationships.
  • Mainermaid
    Nailed It
    As always, Evan is right on the mark about how we (women, men, everyone) can easily overlook each others humanity. Thanks for the reminder, Evan, that it “isn’t easy being green”. Especially when looking for lasting love. ❤️
  • amyk53
    Like almost everything - one big exception
    So, so many “back-handed compliments” in comments about his wife. I wish he’d find another way to illustrate the point he’s making
  • Susan Clancy
    So helpful & encouraging
    I recently discovered this podcast. Evan is fantastic. I have learned so much and I find he’s got a reference for everything. I am grateful that he produces the show. When my daughter starts dating I am going to have her listen to these too!
  • informed podcast listener
    Becoming irrelevant
    Finding this podcast to be irrelevant. Really don’t wNt to hear him fill space about his marriage. Going to tune out pretty soon if this continues. Has he run out of things to say?
