From dating apps to celebrity relationships, ghosting to benching; The Independent digs deep into the murky waters of modern love in our weekly podcast, hosted by Assistant Lifestyle Editor Rachel Hosie and Lifestyle Writer Olivia Petter.

As another year comes to a close, it's our New Year's Eve special.

We discuss kissing at midnight and look into where the tradition came from. And after a year of being ghosted, "seeing" people and having indescribable, confusing, questionable romantic liaisons, we reveal the dating resolutions we're making for 2018.

Happy New Year!

It's available via iTunes and Acast, and we'd love it if you could download, listen, rate and subscribe.
