  • Catfish in the Cockpit
    Oct 28 2025
    Dearbhaile matched with a man claiming to be an Aer Lingus pilot - he definitely was not a pilot but definitely was actually married with kids. For two weeks, he spoofed about his job, travels and life as a pilot, until Dearbhaile found out the truth and put the fear of God into him over text. A year later, he popped up on MY Tinder, this time photoshopping his head onto a pilot’s body. We chat through the full story, how it all unfolded, and share some tips on spotting red flags and making sure someone is who they say they are before meeting up.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-dating-orange-podcast--5898530/support.
