We are doing a deep dive into Dale’s famous birthday extravaganzas, including Dale’s most recent one which Rachel thought might be a swinger’s theme (Dale loves a theme) because it was at a venue called the Carousel Club.  After decades worth of parties, Rachel is breaking down how they usually go and even has help from special guest, Carolina!!   You can follow Rachel on Instagram at @whineandcheezits and Dale at @uptowndale   Show created and hosted by Rachel Sobel and Dale McLean.

This is the episode that made Rachel sweat as she helped referee a battle of the sexes between Dale and two single girls who were out on the town. By far the most heated debate on the pod but that’s what you get when you discuss dating in South Florida I suppose. Rachel is finally recovering from playing mediator and staunchly defending Dale’s Ralph Lauren sweater. Join us on this roller coaster of an episode.   You can follow Rachel on Instagram at @whineandcheezits and Dale at @uptowndale   Show created and hosted by Rachel Sobel and Dale McLean.

There’s a lot of variety in this episode and Dale proves he would make a great hype man as he pumps Rachel up in Episode 15 of Friends Without Benefits.   You can follow Rachel on Instagram at @whineandcheezits and Dale at @uptowndale   Show created and hosted by Rachel Sobel and Dale McLean.

Rachel has been waiting for a moment like this ever since she and Dale discussed starting this podcast. Sitting right across the table is a girl who went on dates in real life with post-pandemic Dale. She’s answering all of the questions and giving a birds eye view into what it’s like to spend time with Dale, including all of his dating quirks. Did he let her share food? Did she break his no flip-flop rule? The answers to these questions and so much more on this episode of Friends Without Benefits!   You can follow Rachel on Instagram at @whineandcheezits and Dale at @uptowndale Show created and hosted by Rachel Sobel and Dale McLean.

Who knew that movie theater snacks could be so polarizing? Rachel will never get over the shock of Dale revealing his favorite snack choices. Ever. The duo gets into a spirited debate about movie theater fare and etiquette. And they are joined by Dale’s summer work bestie, Mike (@mikechanan on IG and creator of YouTube’s Freddy Bakes), who breaks down what would have made a viable snack trade for a pudding cup.   You can follow Rachel on Instagram at @whineandcheezits and Dale at @uptowndale   Show created and hosted by Rachel Sobel and Dale McLean.

Ok not really, but we are kind of on a live tour, recording the next several episodes from American Social Las Olas! We’re eating, drinking, talking to patrons and even pulling some of them to be guests. On our first on-location episode, we spontaneously pull in the lovely Taylor. She’s a server at AmSo, studying neuroscience and she’s able to deal with Dale’s humor and give it right back, so she’s now a solid friend of the pod.  We’re talking about what it’s like as a server in one of the hottest spots in South Florida, dating as a young single gal, and a million other things.   You can follow Rachel on Instagram at @whineandcheezits and Dale at @uptowndale   Show created and hosted by Rachel Sobel and Dale McLean.

Episode 10 is all about the worst jobs we’ve had. It wasn’t always sunshine and roses for Rachel and Dale professionally. They had to pay their dues. Work their way up. Dale spent some time honing his mannequin skills in a retail store window and Rachel drove around a golf course trying not to get nailed in the face with balls. It’s been a rough ride but the two of them share the details of their respective climbs to the top.
