Joel Poppert, known affectionately as "Poppy," is no ordinary host. As a middle-aged, real-life sasquatch with a legendary beard, he brings a unique blend of extroverted charm and an unparalleled ability to connect with strangers. His mission? To create a vibrant community for the epic humans navigating life solo, offering camaraderie, encouragement, empowerment, and a healthy dose of humor along the way.

With his infectious extroverted charm and a "never met a stranger" attitude, Poppy welcomes listeners seeking common ground, encouragement, empowerment, and a dash of comedic relief. This podcast is a dynamic blend of self-improvement, mental health insights, and comedy, featuring weekly guests brave enough to share their stories of solitude in open, unfiltered dialogue. Together, they tackle the universal human experience of being alone, ultimately empowering listeners to master their relationships with themselves.

Whether you're single, divorced, globe-trotting, widowed, new in town, or simply craving authentic conversations, Joel fearlessly delves into it all. Expect unapologetic vulnerability, "soap in the mouth humor," and real talk with real people.

And don't miss out on "The Love Laugh Lounge," the comedic sub-series of The Owning Alone Podcast. It's the ultimate "Festivus for Dating," where we air our dating grievances, swap war stories, and dispense hilariously biased advice, all without any data to back it up.
