President Obama announced his support for same-sex marriage just hours before our DS duo went on air. Reactions galore! I mean

Jade and Dave talk about online dating and discuss the pros and cons of doing a video dating profile on YouTube.

Jade reckons Dave could be more “proactive” in his approach to online dating and so, here’s his “personals ad” video. Would you go on a date with Dave?

Our DS duo also discuss a hospital in Houston live-tweeting a brain surgery, taking operating theatre realness to a whole new level.

Jade and Dave also talk about Darren Hayes‘ touching letter to his 15-year old self, and how some of his personal accounts mirror that of their own.

Kimbra “Vows” Interview, twentysomething and Badoo

This week on Diff’rent Strokes

MUSIC:

Dave chats with Kiwi indie pop siren Kimbra about her debut album Vows, getting naked with Gotye and plans to crack America. The girl is currently co-reigning with Gotye on top of the ARIA charts with ‘Somebody That I Used To Know’ – already one of the biggest selling Australian singles of the year.

You can read the full interview chat on Dave’s pop music blog Feed Limmy after the show.

TV:

Jade checks out twentysomething – a locally produced sitcom that follows two Gen Y Melbournites on their relatable perils of figuring out life, finances and independence. The series created and starred by Josh Schmidt and Jess Schmidt originally aired on Channel 31 but is now getting its mainstream makeover on ABC2. Find out our first impressions of the new series and why everyone’s already divided on Jess’s character.

ONLINE:

Dave logs in to Badoo – a “social dating” site that didn’t take long to justify its bad rep. Things were going so swimmingly well until it decided to auto upload all 100 of Dave’s Facebook “profile pics” without permission. Find out what other dramas lay ahead for our Diff’rent Strokes duo when they go surfing for love. The above pop-up comment was a highlight!
