Judy Torres' Tales Over Cocktails

Artificial Intelligence, Real-Life Drama and Zero Patience

This week on Tales Over Cocktails: AI chaos, Hinge horrors, Taylor Swift’s “Patient Zero,” the Cornell (5)7, and a Wendy & Astra kerfuffle that went WAY too far. 

We spill the tea on how a little AI-generated fun turned into a full-blown text war between us. We also touch upon Danielle's dating life, dissect Taylor's newest music video and how relatable it is. On a more somber note, we cover the tragic story out of Cornell University.

The Dating Sewer, Utility Poles, Kitten-Fishing, And Dating Prospects

It was a rough day for Long Island commuters when a large utility pole snapped in half, halting service on the LIRR main line. The pole mentioned was in Wendy's friend's yard! 

A bait and switch situation occurred when Astra when she showed up for her first date, but she handled it in a classy way. 

We comment a bit on the current condition of the dating pool (or should we say sewer?)

And Danielle seems to have something great going so far!
