  • Meet Cute Podcast is introduced as a show delivering fifteen-minute scripted rom-coms, each made of five three-minute chapters, with new stories dropping Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
  • Tim questions whether Meet Cute is actually pornographic content disguised as wholesome romance, wondering if listeners are masturbating to it.
  • He pitches a hypothetical Meet Cute rom-com set in Manhattan: J. Lo plays a maid who meets a white guy, which he suspects is the actual formula these shows use.
  • Tim creates his own Meet Cute story about two Long Island friends who met, had a great relationship, and both ended up in jail and addicted to heroin.
