While shows like Indian Matchmaking and The Millionaire Matchmaker have brought attention to facilitated dating, Dr. Frankie Bashan, lesbian and bisexual matchmaker, offers behind-the-scenes details on how both matchmaking and speed dating work. Tune in as she talks about how she entered into the world of matchmaking and how her background as a psychologist helps clients “stay optimistic” through the dating process. No episode would be complete without Corey and Tracy sharing their own experiences, like how speed dating made Corey a better dater by giving her a place to practice flirty comments and how it connected Tracy with even more new Facebook friends.
