- The page says Dale is AI-generated, while humans write episodes and TikTok polls—not votes on the site—determine what becomes canon.
Field notes
The homepage describes a daily TikTok loop: each episode ends at a decision, a pinned comment poll closes the next afternoon, and the winning option is carried into the following episode at 6 p.m. ET. It lists Dale as 43, with 212 days on a dating app and zero matches, plus “1 fern” as his confidant. The promised choose-your-own game is still marked “Week 1 unlocks soon”; the page says its votes do not affect the show.
