The live camera is because things 3 00:00:07,320 --> 00:00:08,520 Speaker 1: just got a lot better. 4 00:00:08,280 --> 00:00:09,800 Speaker 2: Looking in the studio here. 5 00:00:10,880 --> 00:00:13,640 Speaker 1: Normally it's just Nige and I and we're in here 6 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:17,040 Speaker 1: telling poop jokes, playing grab ass. But now we've got 7 00:00:17,079 --> 00:00:20,959 Speaker 1: some actual folks in here that are bringing some class 8 00:00:21,040 --> 00:00:23,000 Speaker 1: and sophistication to this program. 9 00:00:23,440 --> 00:00:26,440 Speaker 2: From Netflix Age of Attraction. 10 00:00:26,040 --> 00:00:31,440 Speaker 1: Show, Ashley is here, Ashley Hie And from the WIBC newsroom, 11 00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:33,080 Speaker 1: John Nett is here. 12 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:34,040 Speaker 2: How are you, ladies? 13 00:00:34,520 --> 00:00:36,400 Speaker 3: Amazing, fantastic excited. 14 00:00:36,720 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: So Ashley, let's start with you. I'm going to assume 15 00:00:40,680 --> 00:00:43,960 Speaker 1: because our show's kind of dude heavy, right, there's probably 16 00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:46,400 Speaker 1: a lot of guys that are listening that are not 17 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:48,919 Speaker 1: familiar with Age of Attraction on Netflix. 18 00:00:48,920 --> 00:00:49,640 Speaker 2: Tell us what it was. 19 00:00:49,880 --> 00:00:52,360 Speaker 3: So this Age of Attraction is kind of similar to 20 00:00:52,360 --> 00:00:54,240 Speaker 3: like a Love is Blind method, where it is an 21 00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,000 Speaker 3: experimental dating show. And so there were forty of us, 22 00:00:57,040 --> 00:00:59,960 Speaker 3: twenty guys, twenty girls, and we all went to Whistler, 23 00:01:00,120 --> 00:01:02,800 Speaker 3: Canada to kind of date each other and try to 24 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:04,720 Speaker 3: find our match. But the big premise of the show 25 00:01:04,880 --> 00:01:07,320 Speaker 3: was we're not allowed to release our age. So if 26 00:01:07,360 --> 00:01:08,560 Speaker 3: you and I were on a date. We could have 27 00:01:08,600 --> 00:01:10,920 Speaker 3: any type of conversation, but I could never give you 28 00:01:11,000 --> 00:01:13,840 Speaker 3: any type of indication of my age. So the premise 29 00:01:13,920 --> 00:01:15,520 Speaker 3: was to find out does age really matter? 30 00:01:15,560 --> 00:01:15,920 Speaker 4: And love? 31 00:01:16,360 --> 00:01:18,959 Speaker 1: Okay, and this is like a popular thing like get 32 00:01:19,040 --> 00:01:22,520 Speaker 1: trends on Netflix. This is a big deal and Indy 33 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:28,040 Speaker 1: is kind of represented now I say kind of because 34 00:01:28,760 --> 00:01:31,560 Speaker 1: your time on the program was not as long as 35 00:01:31,600 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 1: we thought it would be, correct. 36 00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:35,559 Speaker 3: So yeah, what's interesting is if you watch the show, 37 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,120 Speaker 3: I was there all the way to the promise rooms 38 00:01:38,120 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 3: where the couples commit to each other, but my story 39 00:01:40,760 --> 00:01:43,520 Speaker 3: was kind of cut, so you only see me really briefly. 40 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 2: I mean that's the way it works with these reality 41 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 2: show programs, right right. I mean, how big actuleally, how 42 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:57,160 Speaker 2: big of a media influence of social media did presence 43 00:01:57,200 --> 00:01:59,520 Speaker 2: did you have here in Indy before the show? 44 00:02:00,040 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 3: Before the show, I had about, like on Instagram eighteen 45 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,360 Speaker 3: thousand followers, so just a little bit of a presence. 46 00:02:05,440 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 3: I do a lot of like fashion style stuff directed 47 00:02:08,200 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 3: towards women and people my age, and so I do. 48 00:02:11,480 --> 00:02:17,440 Speaker 1: The same thing toward yes as Now. There's been a 49 00:02:17,440 --> 00:02:21,240 Speaker 1: little controversy though, because again your time on the show 50 00:02:21,360 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: was short lived. You went to I don't know if 51 00:02:24,480 --> 00:02:27,959 Speaker 1: press junket or the media tour is the right phrase here, 52 00:02:28,520 --> 00:02:32,880 Speaker 1: but you had some grievances. You aired some things out 53 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:33,960 Speaker 1: against these folks, right. 54 00:02:34,320 --> 00:02:36,480 Speaker 3: Well, so I got on my TikTok and I just 55 00:02:36,560 --> 00:02:37,920 Speaker 3: kind of made a joke of hey, I was on 56 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:40,320 Speaker 3: Netflix the show Age of Attraction, but my story was cut. 57 00:02:40,400 --> 00:02:42,920 Speaker 3: But here's a little bit about me. And I started 58 00:02:42,919 --> 00:02:46,400 Speaker 3: telling my story and it kind of came out that 59 00:02:46,919 --> 00:02:49,640 Speaker 3: I am ready for the jokes, a thirty nine year 60 00:02:49,639 --> 00:02:52,000 Speaker 3: old virgin waiting for marriage. 61 00:02:51,520 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 2: And I don't really for you. 62 00:02:52,680 --> 00:02:53,400 Speaker 3: Thank you, thank you? 63 00:02:54,600 --> 00:03:00,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly, So John, You're not a virgin? You many times. 64 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:06,040 Speaker 2: Why was that such a topic of controversy. 65 00:03:06,240 --> 00:03:08,560 Speaker 3: I think just in this day and age, it's just different, 66 00:03:08,639 --> 00:03:11,040 Speaker 3: and I think people maybe who are feel a little 67 00:03:11,040 --> 00:03:14,920 Speaker 3: bit like it's taboo and like it's you know, not embarrassing. 68 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,919 Speaker 3: But like you know, I've had a lot of reactions 69 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,680 Speaker 3: that you can expect with guys. But I wanted to 70 00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 3: share my story because I wanted people in my shoes, 71 00:03:22,280 --> 00:03:24,760 Speaker 3: especially whomen you know, I am thirty nine, I'm single. 72 00:03:24,840 --> 00:03:27,840 Speaker 3: It's hard, it's a lonely time in life. But I 73 00:03:27,880 --> 00:03:30,160 Speaker 3: didn't think my little TikTok would get traction. And then 74 00:03:30,240 --> 00:03:32,600 Speaker 3: Sunday I woke up and someone texted me like, hey, 75 00:03:32,639 --> 00:03:36,480 Speaker 3: you're on TMZ and like TMZ about what and as 76 00:03:36,520 --> 00:03:38,480 Speaker 3: that's coming in, like oh, now you're on us weekly. 77 00:03:38,520 --> 00:03:40,720 Speaker 3: And then someone sent me a post from People Magazine. 78 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 3: I'm like, what's going on?
