  1. The Finale

    Episode 174

    Show notes

    On the final episode of First Date, Lauren Compton flies solo to answer your questions and get roasted by video messages from past guests, like Ari Shaffir, LeeAnn Kreischer, Dr. Drew Pinsky, Brad Williams, Duncan Trussell, Harland, Joe DeRosa, Sam Morril and Mark Normand. Along the way, she gets into the real reason the show is ending (it's not the kids), the first kiss that chipped her front tooth, getting taken out by CGI donuts in Attack of the Killer Donuts, and we finally get to find out her cup size. Plus: foot fetish fakes, breast milk taste tests, her Terry Black's order, a finale cake, and why these chairs need to burn.
