Speaker 3: It will be my absolute pleasure and delight, our ol Wilita.
Speaker 3: Liliana is a real.
Speaker 4: Pissy and queen.
Speaker 3: She wears her heart and her tears on her sleeve.
Speaker 3: A true romantic, she believes in people leaning into their
Speaker 3: vulnerability and trying out, making a connection and opening their heart.
Speaker 3: But don't think Liliana is only about what's inside. She
Speaker 3: wants someone of sizzling. We are talking, ready to sell
Speaker 3: that keep up with her on the dance floor.
Speaker 4: Hat, isn't that right, Leanna?
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's exactly what I want, Lilliana.
Speaker 3: We all know about those five now, what have you
Speaker 3: learned and what are you looking for now?
Speaker 1: You know, I didn't learn as much from the marriages
Speaker 1: as much as I did about learning about myself from
Speaker 1: the years that passed after. And every year I think
Speaker 1: I'm going to date, and every year I think I'm
Speaker 1: going to find someone, And every year you get busier
Speaker 1: and you do more things with life, and then you
Speaker 1: just start kind of becoming a little recluse and just
Speaker 1: staying home, not wanting that companionship anymore.
Speaker 2: M hm.
Speaker 1: I definitely want affection. I'm a touchy, pheely kind of
Speaker 1: a person, also talking because I love to talk, as
Speaker 1: everyone knows, and of course that they have something that
Speaker 1: they've based their life on, some belief or some structure,
Speaker 1: that they have a job. I don't want anybody that
Speaker 1: I have to support, and I don't want anybody having
Speaker 1: to support me either. Now.
Speaker 3: I know that you said that you've learned a lot
Speaker 3: posts to these relationships. Is there anything that you've noticed
Speaker 3: in these past relationships that are patterns that you have
Speaker 3: raised awareness around and don't want to repeat.
Speaker 1: You know, Number one, I was so young. Number two
Speaker 1: it was abusive. Number three was trying to just find
Speaker 1: something else. So as the years go by, then four
Speaker 1: comes in. I think that the main thing of all
Speaker 1: of this was to finally on number five, I learned
Speaker 1: to be kinder. I learned to realize that I was
Speaker 1: being mean, and I mean that I didn't do it intentionally.
Speaker 1: I didn't want to hurt anyone, but I found that
Speaker 1: the only way that sometimes you, when you don't know
Speaker 1: any better, to push someone away is you treat them wrong.
Speaker 1: And I wanted him to be out of my life.
Speaker 1: I wanted him to be happy somewhere else with someone else,
Speaker 1: with someone younger. He was twenty years younger than me.
Speaker 1: And as the years go by, you start questioning all
Speaker 1: your choices. And unfortunately, as much as I adored him,
Speaker 1: and to this day still you know, love him as
Speaker 1: a human being. I'm glad he is where he is at,
Speaker 1: and I'm glad for all the things that he taught me.
Speaker 1: He taught me how to have a best friend and
Speaker 1: a man.
Speaker 4: How did it look like to have a best friend
Speaker 4: and a man?
Speaker 1: I could talk to him about anything for hours. I
Speaker 1: remember one time I was working because I worked with
Speaker 1: LAPD for twenty five years, and I remember one day
Speaker 1: I got into trouble and something was going on, and
Speaker 1: not only he would sit down and listen and talk
Speaker 1: to me and make me feel better, but he fought
Speaker 1: for me and wrote letters to the department about you know,
Speaker 1: how they were treating me. I mean he went beyond
Speaker 1: that that. I mean he showed me love.
Speaker 3: Are you looking for someone as well that's pretty adventurous
Speaker 3: in the bedroom?
Speaker 1: Why not? I mean, at this age, if I can move,
Speaker 1: I'll try it.
Speaker 3: Do you want this new dynamic to center more around
Speaker 3: emotional connection with more tender forms of physical intimacy, or
Speaker 3: do you want something that also can be physically passionate
Speaker 3: in a more sexual way or sensual way?
Speaker 1: How about all of the above?
Speaker 3: All in the above?
Speaker 4: All right?
Speaker 3: Just making sure, No, it's.
Speaker 1: To tell you the truth. The way I have felt
Speaker 1: in these fourteen years is that I never not only
Speaker 1: have loved, but received that love that people talk about.
Speaker 1: And oh no, I don't want to cry. But I'm
Speaker 1: still alive. I still want to give it and I
Speaker 1: still want to receive it. I don't want to be judged.
Speaker 1: And when someone who's going to stand by me, he's
Speaker 1: going to accept me for what I am, who is open,
Speaker 1: who is humble, who is kind, who is loving? Is
Speaker 1: that too much to us, especially at my age?
Speaker 4: Not really, not at all.
Speaker 3: These are very achievable requests.
Speaker 1: So if we can find it in one person for sure.
Speaker 3: Now, with that said, how do you want to carry
Speaker 3: yourself during potential conflict and how your ideal future partner
Speaker 3: would carry himself during conflict?
Speaker 4: What would be your ideal situation?
Speaker 1: You know, at this age, there is no running away
Speaker 1: from anything. You know, I'm going to take a couple
Speaker 1: of days, or I'm going to go outside and walk
Speaker 1: it off. No, walk it off with me. Let's both
Speaker 1: take a walk and in the process let's discuss what
Speaker 1: just happened.
Speaker 3: But sometimes people need a little bit of space, you know,
Speaker 3: and they sometimes genuinely want to take the walk, like
Speaker 3: on themselves so they can process.
Speaker 1: You're absolutely right. If this person is asking me and
Speaker 1: explaining to me, communication is what's going to see us through.
Speaker 1: That's the end of that story.
Speaker 2: Just tell me a.
Speaker 1: Listen, babe, you know, let me just have a couple hours,
Speaker 1: we'll talk about it again. Hey, I'm fine.
Speaker 3: Are you looking for someone that would be interested eventually
Speaker 3: in cohabitating together or do you like to have your
Speaker 3: own space or what how does that look like for you?
Speaker 1: In this moment, I would only have to say that
Speaker 1: it would take a very special person because at the
Speaker 1: very beginning of it all, when I started getting married
Speaker 1: into number one, it was a desperate need to never
Speaker 1: be alone that saw me through five of them. You know,
Speaker 1: I was heard, I needed love, I wanted hugs. I
Speaker 1: wanted to have someone to take care of me. It
Speaker 1: never did really come to fruition, and I had to
Speaker 1: keep on moving and moving. So at this point, yes,
Speaker 1: I would be interested down the road.
Speaker 4: How does your love and your care look like? How
Speaker 4: do you give that?
Speaker 1: What do I give?
Speaker 3: Oh?
Speaker 1: I hug, I compliment. When I say I love you,
Speaker 1: I mean it. I do little things or prepare special
Speaker 1: meals or surprises. I think I mentioned to you I
Speaker 1: love surprises. Though I've never been on the receiving end,
Speaker 1: I'd love to give them. With my last marriage, my
Speaker 1: last relationship, it was abundantly an exchange giving receiving not
Speaker 1: only of affection, but conversation and many many gifts. We
Speaker 1: talk about making wrong choices, Yeah, I will always remember
Speaker 1: that one.
Speaker 4: Well, I will keep all of this in mind.
Speaker 3: I am very, very, very excited to grill these gentlemen
Speaker 3: and see if they are worthy of your love and
Speaker 3: your care, and your attentiveness and your effervescence.
Speaker 1: I trust my future. It's in your hands.
Speaker 3: Ah, here we go, Here we go. Let's get ready.
Speaker 3: Let's put the pressure on on these gentlemen. They better
Speaker 3: hold on to their pantaloons or I'll hold them for them,
Speaker 3: or that or that. We'll be back after the break.

Speaker 3: plans and is excited for the future. Heck yes, I'm
Speaker 3: also so proud of you. Chris is interested in dating
Speaker 3: someone who will have a nuanced conversation and can handle
Speaker 3: a lot of high energy. Hell's yeah, he gets bored easily,
Speaker 3: so he is in look for someone who has adventure
Speaker 3: to add to his already full life.
Speaker 4: Welcome Chris, Chris, Thank you. Thank Next up we have Billy.
Speaker 3: Billy followed a girlfriend abroad and when they didn't work out,
Speaker 3: he stayed abroad.
Speaker 4: Talk about adventure.
Speaker 3: Billy lived there for three decades and has only recently
Speaker 3: returned to the US. Billy is sixty six years old
Speaker 3: and has been a wellness fitness coach. I mean, y'all, yeah,
Speaker 3: you can see it, you can see it, and is
Speaker 3: looking for healthiness and activeness and a partner. Billy is cruel,
Speaker 3: working on a book and has a miniature Schnauzer who
Speaker 3: is his companion.
Speaker 4: Oh how cute I Billy.
Speaker 3: And last, but certainly not least we got Mitch. Mitch
Speaker 3: had epilepsy when he was a child slash teenager and
Speaker 3: almost died. Oh and his near death experience has given
Speaker 3: him and an appreciation for life that he always carries
Speaker 3: with him.
Speaker 4: I love that.
Speaker 3: Mitch is currently semi retired and has been a ski instructor, columnist, actor,
Speaker 3: and wedding offician, which says he takes very seriously.
Speaker 4: Okay, someone else is in the business of love. I see.
Speaker 4: Mitch says he was blessed by.
Speaker 3: Good jeans, hell's yeah, I can see that, and athletic parents,
Speaker 3: and was raised by an intelligent, strong mom. His green
Speaker 3: flags are humor.
Speaker 4: And nice legs.
Speaker 3: Welcome Mitch.
Speaker 5: Thanks guys.
Speaker 3: Before we get into the any gritty, the intimate stuff,
Speaker 3: we'll start with something a little bit you know, chill.
Speaker 2: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: We're gonna play some games, break the eyes, warm up.
Speaker 4: So with that said, let's get right in.
Speaker 3: Our main dater is a bit of a dancer herself
Speaker 3: and expects her partner to be able to, you know,
Speaker 3: bust a move or two. So in this game of
Speaker 3: Save the Last Dance, imagine you are at the nightclub
Speaker 3: and the ending of the night is approaching, and you
Speaker 3: see the lady in the red dress.
Speaker 4: I mean, I am talking about a boom, you know
Speaker 4: what I'm saying.
Speaker 3: She looks eager for that one final dance to close
Speaker 3: the evening, and it's your objective to woo this lady.
Speaker 3: So what would you say in order to get her
Speaker 3: to hit the dance floor by your side?
Speaker 2: It just has to show those bicips, all.
Speaker 3: Right, book, Chris, go ahead, lead me to it.
Speaker 6: Me sure. I get a lot of joy from dancing,
Speaker 6: so I pretty much just let myself go.
Speaker 7: So I'm envisioning just really like dance enough to her.
Speaker 1: Just spit it out, just.
Speaker 6: Whatever whatever the dance style is, and get right up
Speaker 6: there and give it her my energy.
Speaker 7: Seeing how she reacts.
Speaker 3: Do you say anything or you just like show your
Speaker 3: physical Yeah, throw yourself at me.
Speaker 7: No, I want to feel that. It's not about the words, right,
Speaker 7: It's about the energy. So you know, I'm going to see.
Speaker 3: In her eyes absolutely and then begin that exchange. I
Speaker 3: love that, Mitch. What's your approach? Do you say anything?
Speaker 3: Do you show the physical? What's up?
Speaker 5: I think I would just simply walk up and say
Speaker 5: something along the lines of you know, there couldn't be
Speaker 5: anything better the night than just have one dance with
Speaker 5: you and off of my hand.
Speaker 3: All right, that's what's said NASA smooth interrect So that's
Speaker 3: what's what about you, billy, what's your approach?
Speaker 8: Well, what I'd do is I'd go up to her,
Speaker 8: because I wouldn't know what style of dance, whether or
Speaker 8: not it'd be salts or whatnot, and I'd say, hey,
Speaker 8: do you remember the time when these dance arenas were
Speaker 8: like in Saturday Night Fever with John Travolta. Do you
Speaker 8: remember Ben Vereen in All That Dance? And do you
Speaker 8: remember Debbie Allen in Fame? Hey, if you don't, we
Speaker 8: can talk about this. But what we have to do
Speaker 8: is we have to get warmed up first. So let's
Speaker 8: just go out on the floor and we'll go ahead,
Speaker 8: and you know, go ahead and move around a little bit.
Speaker 8: And as we're dancing, if the song slows down, if
Speaker 8: the music slows down, or if you want to know,
Speaker 8: we just talk about the error, because I'm figuring we
Speaker 8: come from that same generation and these young people out
Speaker 8: here they know nothing about what real dance is about.
Speaker 3: Okay, And then show off to all these young people absolutely,
Speaker 3: I would be in the crowd waiting for the show.
Speaker 3: I'm so here for this throwing it, Billy, here's the
Speaker 3: next game. Here's the thing. I gotta be honest. Sometimes
Speaker 3: when I get dating advice, I kind of roll my
Speaker 3: eyes because you know, dating is a journey and it's
Speaker 3: different for everybody, and sometimes it's no, it's is gonna
Speaker 3: be different.
Speaker 4: But not today.
Speaker 3: Today, I actually want to hear the advice you all
Speaker 3: have about dating. I want to know both the best
Speaker 3: advice and the worst advice. But here's the little twist.
Speaker 3: I'm going to give you some bonus information on our
Speaker 3: main dater. She grew up watching the novels and loves
Speaker 3: to watch a little salacious drama. So today we're going
Speaker 3: to ask you for the best and worst advice that
Speaker 3: you've ever received, but then a novela style. For example,
Speaker 3: the best dating advice that I have received is to
Speaker 3: not let your ego rule your love life. But if
Speaker 3: I were to give it in the renovela style, I
Speaker 3: would say, no, mos the ego, No, don't do it,
Speaker 3: please do not let it rule your love life. Something
Speaker 3: like that. Okay, So with that, Billy, start us off
Speaker 3: on this let's start with the best dating advice.
Speaker 7: Best dating advice.
Speaker 8: They take time, they go from week to week to
Speaker 8: week to week. It evolves, just like love.
Speaker 2: None of that.
Speaker 7: Netflix.
Speaker 8: Gotta do everything in one shot dating, man, that's the
Speaker 8: way you do it to get to know people, date
Speaker 8: soap opera style.
Speaker 2: I love him that.
Speaker 4: What's up?
Speaker 3: That is correct? Yeah, dating takes time, it takes weeks.
Speaker 3: It's an ever learning process.
Speaker 4: I'm into that. I'm into that.
Speaker 1: Mitch.
Speaker 4: What's your best dating advice? Superper style?
Speaker 5: Brian to do that?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 9: Well okay, yeah, so could I say? So, you know,
Speaker 9: dating that breaks your heart, there's your part. And you
Speaker 9: know what, usually because people are being real, you gotta
Speaker 9: be real. Maybe just kind of bringing up be be
Speaker 9: your heart, because your heart that's what matters.
Speaker 5: Bringing out, be real, be you.
Speaker 2: Okay, he just made me cry.
Speaker 4: I love that. I love that.
Speaker 2: I love that.
Speaker 4: Yes, be real, be you.
Speaker 3: Wise woman once told me that open your mind, open
Speaker 3: your heart, and and just be you, and that really
Speaker 3: is the path that takes us to connecting with other people.
Speaker 3: So I love that.
Speaker 4: Chris, what's your best dating advice?
Speaker 1: The in knowla style?
Speaker 2: Let me see.
Speaker 7: That is a very interesting question.
Speaker 10: Yes, you must do more listening talking. Okay, it's not
Speaker 10: a very good Spanish.
Speaker 3: But it was precise doing more listening than talking, and
Speaker 3: so frekingly, yeah, being an active listener is a very
Speaker 3: it's a practice. It's a practice.
Speaker 4: So I love all this.
Speaker 3: Let's go ahead and now get to the worst dating
Speaker 3: advice that you have ever received. For example, I'm your
Speaker 3: or sometimes it is best to leave some parts of
Speaker 3: the truth so you don't hurt their feelings. He's okay
Speaker 3: that you should never leave parts of the truth. Ever,
Speaker 3: to not hurt someone's feelings eventually is gonna bite you
Speaker 3: in the buttocks. Let's reverse it, Chris, start us off.
Speaker 3: What's the worst dating advice.
Speaker 6: I'll be completely honest with you. I've never gotten any
Speaker 6: bad dating advice. I've never really gotten a lot of
Speaker 6: dating advice in general. I'd never been the big hater,
Speaker 6: so I never really.
Speaker 7: Was officially in the dating world. Per se.
Speaker 2: What that makes sense?
Speaker 3: No, that's I'm very curious about this, me too. I'm
Speaker 3: bookmarking that one. Honesty and transparency. Mitch, what is the
Speaker 3: worst dating advice?
Speaker 9: This whole thing about bring your best on the first date,
Speaker 9: bring you bring your heart. This impressing thing.
Speaker 5: You know, so many people say, you know you're going
Speaker 5: the first date, you got to really impress them, You've
Speaker 5: got to blow them away. Don't impress me. What impresses
Speaker 5: me is the hat.
Speaker 2: There you go.
Speaker 3: Yeah, performance, But was it that you said earlier that
Speaker 3: like oftentimes like people bring in their quote unquote best
Speaker 3: version and then they are just like performing for you,
Speaker 3: and you're like, wait, but who are you? Like, what's
Speaker 3: what's happening there? What's the real you? We're done with
Speaker 3: that zero performance?
Speaker 5: Yeah, you know. And the thing is I tell people, look,
Speaker 5: you want somebody to fall in with person A, and
Speaker 5: you're really person b that's a recipe for disaster.
Speaker 3: I'm so freaking lutely I have learned of the hard way.
Speaker 3: Cute Billy, what's your worst dating advice?
Speaker 8: Well, you know, and I appreciate what Mitchell said in
Speaker 8: terms of not pretending, and I would add something to that,
Speaker 8: and that would be to not be macho. I mean,
Speaker 8: we have this tendency as males to be macho and
Speaker 8: we don't allow ourselves to be vulnerable. And I think
Speaker 8: that's really important, especially when we're dealing with the opposite sex,
Speaker 8: because the way we see the world and the way
Speaker 8: they see the world is entirely different. So being vulnerable
Speaker 8: allows us to open up. And if that doesn't work,
Speaker 8: then that's fine. But this whole thing about being mauchhole
Speaker 8: and you got to be this and be that as
Speaker 8: a man, and you know, be strong and all that.
Speaker 8: After the years that we've been on this planet, I
Speaker 8: think we've learned our lesson and that is sensitivity.
Speaker 5: It's ah, well.
Speaker 3: This is absolutely lovely. I am really really into all
Speaker 3: of this. Well, maybe I have another piece of dating advice.
Speaker 4: The best thing you can do for your love life is,
Speaker 4: you know, come on a dating.
Speaker 3: Show podcast, reveal your secrets, share your experience, and maybe
Speaker 3: go on a sexy date.
Speaker 4: In the end, I think for the next round.
Speaker 3: I don't want to send anybody home right now. I
Speaker 3: want to get to know you a little bit deeper,
Speaker 3: more intimately. So what's gonna happen is we'll have just
Speaker 3: the one on one. We're gonna dig deep, We're gonna
Speaker 3: go in there, just see on me, and then I
Speaker 3: will have more information to see which way I'm gonna go.
Speaker 4: We'll be back after the break.
Speaker 3: Welcome back to day Maya Wani the first, So I
Speaker 3: want to start with, uh, Chris, have a little cafecito gonvico.
Speaker 3: All right, Chris, this is very exciting. Oh my gosh,
Speaker 3: this is the first time I get to have.
Speaker 4: A one on one. Oh how are you doing today?
Speaker 4: How are you feeling?
Speaker 7: I'm feeling great.
Speaker 4: M lovely, lovely.
Speaker 3: Now, I'm very curious about your dating, right. You mentioned
Speaker 3: in one of the games that you haven't really done
Speaker 3: much of it, and I'm very curious about how that
Speaker 3: looks like, how has looked like, and how do you
Speaker 3: wish it looked like.
Speaker 7: I'll keep a brief but I'm the only child of.
Speaker 11: A single mom and she didn't really want me dating girlfriends.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry.
Speaker 6: What So I was doing.
Speaker 11: A lot of theater, and I was working in restaurants,
Speaker 11: and I was young and good looking, and I liked girls,
Speaker 11: and just they just kind of came into my life,
Speaker 11: you know, And it.
Speaker 6: Was it was never I never had to go out
Speaker 6: there and set up dates and go on dates and
Speaker 6: ask uncles and whatever father figures I could.
Speaker 7: Get a hold of for dating advice. I never really
Speaker 7: was in that world.
Speaker 3: You've been uncohol free for twelve years, Yes, twelve years awesome.
Speaker 3: How do your relationships in your life with yourself and
Speaker 3: the people around you have changed since that decision?
Speaker 7: There's a lot less relationships and that's inevitable.
Speaker 6: Quality of the relationships are so much better because I'm better.
Speaker 3: How do they look like? Can you give me a
Speaker 3: bit of an example.
Speaker 6: Making myself vulnerable here, I've only been in LA for
Speaker 6: three years and so I don't have really any personal
Speaker 6: relationships in my life, like people who I see on
Speaker 6: a regular basis.
Speaker 7: So I've very solitary.
Speaker 2: That's way too solidary.
Speaker 6: My relationships are all virtual, like this to you a
Speaker 6: message or mostly Google doo.
Speaker 7: I have some people in my life, friends.
Speaker 6: Who are like family who I talk to regularly.
Speaker 7: Those relationships are beautiful.
Speaker 3: Now with that, a lot of you said a lot
Speaker 3: of your relationships tend to be virtual. Are you someone
Speaker 3: who likes physical touch and is affectionate and do you
Speaker 3: miss that?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 7: You know, I think about.
Speaker 6: That when I see movies and I see like I
Speaker 6: always kissed on the cheek, and I'm like when I
Speaker 6: was leaving in the house and I had a girl,
Speaker 6: and I looked with women and I had women in
Speaker 6: my life, it.
Speaker 7: Was well I kiss like a kiss and I'm very
Speaker 7: very affectionate.
Speaker 6: I got it.
Speaker 3: So do you consider yourself a romantic only then?
Speaker 6: Yeah, absolutely, I'm a lovely I'm a lovely dove kind
Speaker 6: of guy. I was raised by women, so I'm like totally.
Speaker 11: Like all that maso talk.
Speaker 6: It's like, I'm never that guy who's trying to be
Speaker 6: macho for anybody.
Speaker 3: So words of affirmation feel like you?
Speaker 11: You do?
Speaker 3: You like to give words of affirmation, receive words of
Speaker 3: affirmation as well?
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, absolutely. I used to run a summer camp.
Speaker 6: Most of my life has been around kids, and that's
Speaker 6: all about positivity and affirmation and building them up. So
Speaker 6: that's part of my DNA. Just as a person, I'm
Speaker 6: just always a cheerleader for everybody.
Speaker 7: Spin everything positive.
Speaker 3: And what are you looking for right now? What does
Speaker 3: it feel like aligns with you in this moment?
Speaker 6: Looking for someone good who is making life more complex
Speaker 6: than it needs to be.
Speaker 3: I appreciate you very very much. We're gonna put you
Speaker 3: in the waiting room and then bring back one of
Speaker 3: the other conditions and have that going. Thank you so much, Chris,
Speaker 3: awesome seeing it. Welcome back, Mitch, Hey, this is our moment.
Speaker 5: Huh.
Speaker 3: Indeed, we have a one on one just you and me.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna just dive in, dig deep. You seem like
Speaker 3: you've had many many an experience, you know, and you've
Speaker 3: you've had many a relationship and you'll learn a lot
Speaker 3: from those. What has been some of the patterns that
Speaker 3: you've noticed within yourself and these relationships and what do
Speaker 3: you want to break or heal or what have you noticed? Like, Oh,
Speaker 3: I healed that and I'm bringing this in a new relationship.
Speaker 5: I grew up with really successful people around me, my family,
Speaker 5: and so I initially was somebody that was working to impress,
Speaker 5: working to show my value, and I used to need
Speaker 5: some validation, you know. I would do some things and
Speaker 5: pretty cool things, you know, start my own nonprofits and
Speaker 5: stuff like that, and I needed to hear from other people.
Speaker 5: Well this is great, thank you for doing this. I
Speaker 5: don't need anything anymore like that. I don't care what
Speaker 5: people think about how I look, what I do and whatever.
Speaker 5: It's like, I want to be happy. Yeah, that's been
Speaker 5: my biggest lesson is learning to just be real, be
Speaker 5: myself kind of like I said, any other thing and trust.
Speaker 5: So just like this process, right, here, I'm going to
Speaker 5: trust that whatever is meant to be meant to be.
Speaker 5: You know, if one of the other two guys is
Speaker 5: the right guy, rock one great.
Speaker 3: It's like everything in life. You know, we are not
Speaker 3: everone's cup of tea, and that is oh adorable. Yeah,
Speaker 3: what's your perspective with conflict?
Speaker 5: The relationship should be more important than being right, Like,
Speaker 5: I make a billion mistakes. I'm gonna be wrong a
Speaker 5: million times until I die. If I'm not wrong sometimes,
Speaker 5: and I'm probably dead. So if things are going differently
Speaker 5: for the day or the week or the mon kind
Speaker 5: of write it out because the relationship's bigger than any conflict,
Speaker 5: any differences.
Speaker 3: Are you a very affectionate person? Do you like physical
Speaker 3: touches that?
Speaker 1: Yeah, I'm very very very very h very very very
Speaker 1: I like the very very very very How do.
Speaker 3: You express yourself romantically? Are you much of a romantic?
Speaker 3: Do you like you know, grand gestures?
Speaker 5: Well, you know, it kind of goes to the love
Speaker 5: languages thing, right, first thing I want to do is
Speaker 5: read the lady and figure out what really resonates for her.
Speaker 5: I don't think I would mix well with somebody that
Speaker 5: doesn't like physical touch because I'm just gonna hug in
Speaker 5: the middle of the kitchen, rub up against their back,
Speaker 5: So yeah, that's kind of more. My thing is the
Speaker 5: I love a lot of the touching and connection and whatnot.
Speaker 5: I mean, gosh, you could be sitting there with your
Speaker 5: partner drinking coffee, watching the sunrise and not even saying
Speaker 5: a word. But whether it's a momentary touch, whether it's
Speaker 5: a you know, holding each other at.
Speaker 3: Of connection, those are like your your bits for connection.
Speaker 3: Are those physical touches that like eventually, yeah, they definitely
Speaker 3: add up.
Speaker 4: Where in the world are you right now?
Speaker 5: In Sacramento?
Speaker 3: Right now, Sacramento beautiful? And what are you looking for
Speaker 3: right now?
Speaker 5: I want somebody that wants to venture a little bit.
Speaker 5: They don't have to do everything I do, they don't
Speaker 5: have to scuba I but somebody that can see life
Speaker 5: is like, oh man, let's explore, let's try something new.
Speaker 5: And the other thing is somebody that's really creative. I mean,
Speaker 5: I've said it. I would look for somebody that either
Speaker 5: has tats or would somebody that's got that creative edge
Speaker 5: to them, not like, I don't know, emotionally conservative. I
Speaker 5: don't know if that's what you call it. That's really
Speaker 5: huge to me. But I do need somebody emotionally mature too.
Speaker 5: I dated this beautiful model from Venezuela for four years
Speaker 5: and she was jealous when I had coffee with a
Speaker 5: guy friend. It's like, Okay, I need some emotional maturity.
Speaker 3: How do you handle your emotional space? How do you
Speaker 3: tap into your emotions? Do you feel comfortable leaning into
Speaker 3: your vulnerability, being able to trust someone with your emotions
Speaker 3: and whether they're anger or jealousy or frustration, how do
Speaker 3: you communicate these like harder feelings to process.
Speaker 5: So I'm kind of this zen person. I've done in
Speaker 5: a tone of the zen personal work. I'm also an
Speaker 5: ordaining spiritual minister and whatnot. So I'm kind of fortunate
Speaker 5: that things I call it the surfer mentality when we've
Speaker 5: been in the ocean, like I have scuba diving and surfing.
Speaker 5: When notot we just chilling. A lot of things don't
Speaker 5: bother us. So I don't know, I've never really tended
Speaker 5: towards anger anyhow. My thing is is when I run
Speaker 5: into a situation, it's just simply a surprise all the
Speaker 5: way to something really deep. I tend to get quiet
Speaker 5: and think first, because I need to process through and
Speaker 5: figure out what is it. I want to say, what's
Speaker 5: really going on? What is just kind of my issue
Speaker 5: that well, I kind of don't like that, but it's
Speaker 5: not important. So that's kind of my first reaction is
Speaker 5: quietly observed. I'm a real observer first, and then once
Speaker 5: you get that dance with a person of knowing how
Speaker 5: to express, I'm also somebody who wants to kind of
Speaker 5: ring right up, Hey, how are you doing? You don't
Speaker 5: seem like you're into this or whatever. Let's talk about this.
Speaker 5: I'm not one to sweep it under the rug, ignore it,
Speaker 5: put it off, like, let's bring it out. It's not
Speaker 5: personal and the relationship is more important.
Speaker 3: Absolutely, thank you so much for that match. I really
Speaker 3: appreciate your candor and the knowledge.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you're truly wonderful.
Speaker 5: Thank you.
Speaker 4: Let's bring on Billy.
Speaker 3: Billy, Hello, Hello you and your wonderful smile. Welcome to
Speaker 3: a little GUFFESSI Loko Mivico one on one deep dive
Speaker 3: into our deepest secrets.
Speaker 4: Okay, how are you doing today?
Speaker 7: I'm doing really well.
Speaker 3: Lovely, lovely, lovely, So I'm going to just go ahead
Speaker 3: and dive right in. How has your dating life been lately?
Speaker 3: When was your last relationship?
Speaker 7: You know, that's a great question. I haven't dated in
Speaker 7: two years.
Speaker 8: I had a girlfriend when I was in Asia for
Speaker 8: about eight years. Oh wow, and I just I just
Speaker 8: didn't feel comfortable marrying someone while I was in age.
Speaker 8: I just didn't feel home and this is my home,
Speaker 8: and that was my bad because she really wanted to
Speaker 8: get together. Well, now she's one of my best friends
Speaker 8: as well, and her and her husband are going.
Speaker 7: To come and visit me. So she's getting married. Yeah,
Speaker 7: that was.
Speaker 8: Quite a shocker for me, and I just heard about
Speaker 8: three months ago that they were going to get married.
Speaker 7: But I wish them well. So in saying all that.
Speaker 8: I had a couple of dates that lasted about I
Speaker 8: guess three months during that period of time. But that's
Speaker 8: pretty much the extent of it.
Speaker 3: Is that relationship, that eight year relationship. Is that the
Speaker 3: longest one you've ever been in?
Speaker 8: Yes, because the other one was seven years. So my
Speaker 8: dating turns into extended periods of time.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 3: No, But you're looking for sustainable, long term relationships, and
Speaker 3: I want to commend you for that because it's really
Speaker 3: hard to do. And even though these relationships quote unquote ended,
Speaker 3: you still have negotiated a new type of relationship with
Speaker 3: these people. You know, you're still really good friends with
Speaker 3: these folks that you have grown with and have also
Speaker 3: witnessed you in your growth. With that said, what are
Speaker 3: some things that you have learned from those relationships that
Speaker 3: you definitely want to bring into a new one, And
Speaker 3: what are some things that you've noticed within yourself patterns
Speaker 3: that you're like, ooh, I don't want to repeat that.
Speaker 5: You know, when I didn't think.
Speaker 8: That this was going to happen, but I think I've
Speaker 8: learned that when I date someone, they have to have
Speaker 8: some affiliation with what happens in the United States, either
Speaker 8: having lived here or being in the West. The reason
Speaker 8: why I mention that is because culturally there really is
Speaker 8: a vast difference with people who are born and they
Speaker 8: still live in their birthright country. I was a visitor
Speaker 8: and I realized that there's a cultural divide. I was
Speaker 8: able to navigate that, but at the same time, just
Speaker 8: sharing experiences, history, entertainment, all those things, even music, if
Speaker 8: they're not something that's indigenous of the society, there can
Speaker 8: be kind of like a separation. So that's one of
Speaker 8: the things that I learned in terms of what did
Speaker 8: I learn about myself? I learned that I can't extend
Speaker 8: something for a long period of time thinking that I
Speaker 8: have to get my shit together in order to feel great.
Speaker 8: Even though I was treating them well, in my eyes,
Speaker 8: I was doing them a disservice by stringing them along.
Speaker 8: I should have cut it off when I knew that
Speaker 8: there was just something intuitionally that just wasn't working for me.
Speaker 3: How does showing that earnest version of you that it's
Speaker 3: human that doesn't have all the things together, How does
Speaker 3: that look like? How does that feel like for you?
Speaker 8: It's just a matter of being authentic. I think that's
Speaker 8: what it's all about. And when I wasn't authentic, even
Speaker 8: though it kind of like crept up on me, I
Speaker 8: didn't do it intentionally. Yeah, I felt like, Okay, I
Speaker 8: just wanted to I didn't want to commit. I just
Speaker 8: wanted to have a great time, and I thought we
Speaker 8: were growing. But that was very one sided, and so
Speaker 8: I realized that at the end of the day. So
Speaker 8: this is me being authentic by actually saying and I
Speaker 8: have I've done that with both of those relationships that
Speaker 8: have been the longest I've actually told them, sat and
Speaker 8: down said I'm sorry. I really didn't mean to take
Speaker 8: you that far because I didn't realize either in my
Speaker 8: youth or just my selfishness. And I apologize for that,
Speaker 8: and I hope that we can continue going on because
Speaker 8: we shared so many other things. I just wasn't able
Speaker 8: to put a ring on it, so to speak. I
Speaker 8: didn't say that.
Speaker 1: No, all good.
Speaker 3: Now I feel you now when it comes to relationships
Speaker 3: and conflict, what's your perspective. Is that something that scares
Speaker 3: you or is something that you see as an invitation
Speaker 3: to dig deeper?
Speaker 7: I de escalate.
Speaker 8: I have this sense that when people lock heads together,
Speaker 8: it's because they're trying to push their own agenda without
Speaker 8: listening to the other person, without trying to find a
Speaker 8: point where they can both navigate. And I say this
Speaker 8: from where I'm at right now. When I was younger,
Speaker 8: there's no way in hell I have been able to
Speaker 8: do all this because I was still growing, you know,
Speaker 8: I have testops, was just rolling and all that kind
Speaker 8: of stuff. But now I've learned that I have done
Speaker 8: pretty much what most people will never be able to
Speaker 8: do in their lives, and so that's a blessing. I
Speaker 8: need to share that. I don't need to defend myself.
Speaker 8: I need to share what I've learned. So if there's
Speaker 8: a conflict, I'm just gonna sit and listen. If I
Speaker 8: make a mistake, I'm going to admit it, you know,
Speaker 8: because I wasn't listening. And I don't want to get
Speaker 8: in emotional battles. I don't want to fight people. If
Speaker 8: we're doing that, then we need to step back and go, Okay,
Speaker 8: what are we really doing here? I mean, what is
Speaker 8: the issue? Let's get on with it because obviously we
Speaker 8: have something that's bigger than that we have. You know,
Speaker 8: we have a little time left, so let's not mess
Speaker 8: it up with all this.
Speaker 7: You know, this conflict.
Speaker 3: Now, before I wrap it up with you, are you
Speaker 3: an affectionate person? Do you like physical touch? Is that
Speaker 3: something that Yeah.
Speaker 8: It's a must for me, it really is. I love
Speaker 8: holding hands. I'm really affectionate. That doesn't necessarily mean that
Speaker 8: I'm going to be all over in like some monster sexual. No,
Speaker 8: I need to do just skin on skin, touching clothes,
Speaker 8: being next to each other.
Speaker 7: Yeah, that's a big thing for me.
Speaker 2: Oh, I love that. I love that.
Speaker 3: Wow, what a great bunch of dates I have had
Speaker 3: with all of y'all. Speaking of honesty and transparency, I've
Speaker 3: asked all of y'all to be vulnerable with me and
Speaker 3: get in there, and I really.
Speaker 4: Appreciate all of that.
Speaker 3: I need to be honest with y'all because I have
Speaker 3: been keeping a secret actually too little. Did you all
Speaker 3: know that our main dater has actually been listening from
Speaker 3: the start. And not only is she a great main dater,
Speaker 3: she is fiery, She is funny, she has a beautiful voice,
Speaker 3: She is an actress, and is on a podcast, maybe
Speaker 3: even the podcast that we are in right now. She
Speaker 3: is my co host, which is the reason why I'm
Speaker 3: doing this alone. So we turned the table on her,
Speaker 3: and this time she is the one we are setting
Speaker 3: up on a date when she's absolutely wonderful. I know
Speaker 3: as well.
Speaker 4: I was, like everything has changed, I don't know what
Speaker 4: I'm doing. Where's my other person.
Speaker 3: It's a very special one for me because she's really lovely,
Speaker 3: and I think all of you are also wonderful humans.
Speaker 3: So this is gonna be very tough. So with that set,
Speaker 3: now that I've come clean, she is the one and
Speaker 3: only I will eat that Liliana.
Speaker 5: Liliana is such a lyrical name. That's beautiful.
Speaker 3: Oh, I might have an idea of maybe who I
Speaker 3: might want to put on a virtual date with her,
Speaker 3: but I need a little bit of time of reflection.
Speaker 3: So give me, give me a couple of minutes, and
Speaker 3: then we'll bring you back in with the verdict so
Speaker 3: that whomever ends up being the one gets to meet Lilliana.
Speaker 4: We'll be back after the break.
Speaker 3: Welcome back to day.
Speaker 4: May we eat the first? So will e the What?
Speaker 4: What do you think? What are your thoughts?
Speaker 1: Since this morning, I've been so emotional, trying to think
Speaker 1: about exactly what it is that I want and how
Speaker 1: many things I have put aside for so very long,
Speaker 1: and then that beautiful comment from Mitch about my name.
Speaker 1: And he's a sweetheart, he has a huge heart. He's
Speaker 1: not gonna hold me down, He's not gonna hold me back.
Speaker 1: With Billy on the other side, I'm not sure. I'm
Speaker 1: not really sure.
Speaker 4: I'm feeling besties with Billy.
Speaker 3: I'm feeling like you can chat it up and you
Speaker 3: can have tons of conversations, but I feel like there's
Speaker 3: a bit more of an emotional attunement with Mitch.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's was Chris. Ever under your consideration.
Speaker 2: Not.
Speaker 3: I feel like he's really sweet, he's really tender. I
Speaker 3: feel like there's a lot of like charisma in him.
Speaker 3: I feel that he might have a harder time to
Speaker 3: be vulnerable in general and diving in in that way.
Speaker 3: And I think you're on a point where you're just
Speaker 3: like ready to to go for it.
Speaker 4: You know what I'm saying.
Speaker 2: Now.
Speaker 1: The only thing with Mitch is Sacramento.
Speaker 3: That's true, but not only be in other places.
Speaker 1: There's plenty of hotels in Los Angeles, and you travel
Speaker 1: all the time.
Speaker 3: I see you in Hawaii, in Vegas and all that stuff.
Speaker 1: Let's specially headed to San Francisco in a few weeks.
Speaker 1: I can stop in Sacramento.
Speaker 4: There you go.
Speaker 3: All right, let's bring in the contestants. Welcome back, you
Speaker 3: handsome gentlemen. It goes without saying. All of you are very, very,
Speaker 3: very special, and I wish you all love and care
Speaker 3: in a way that aligns with you in this life.
Speaker 3: With that said, the person that I have chosen to
Speaker 3: go on a date with Liliana is.
Speaker 4: Mitch.
Speaker 8: Oh congratulations, dude, Thanks guys.
Speaker 3: Sure, Chris and Billy, you two are such a delight.
Speaker 7: You're a delight. You're very special. You said we're special,

Speaker 1: Oh my goodness, I'm shaking.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 3: Lelliana.
Speaker 4: First impressions on Mitch.
Speaker 1: He's adorable, You're sweet. But one thing that I really
Speaker 1: have to say is the gratitude I feel towards you becon.
Speaker 1: You have handled yourself amazingly with a huge heart, which
Speaker 1: we don't see off it. It's more logic than anything.
Speaker 3: I'm the logic and the equation normally on the one
Speaker 3: like you know, with the mental stuff, and then like
Speaker 3: she's the one with the heart. So I've been putting
Speaker 3: a little bit of that in this in the side and.
Speaker 1: It truly worked.
Speaker 4: Thank you, Thank you so much, Mitch. First impressions on Lileana.
Speaker 5: Well, I don't know too much about her, because clearly
Speaker 5: personality and energy in person is going to be where
Speaker 5: I'll get to really know you.
Speaker 4: Mm hmm.
Speaker 5: I can see by the smile and the way you
Speaker 5: approached all this that you know, this beautiful vitality, beautiful smile.
Speaker 1: Thank you. Yeah.
Speaker 3: Wow, I never felt so much pressure in my life before.

Speaker 5: Be hang on. I put it on headphones so I
Speaker 5: can hear you better. There we go. I should even
Speaker 5: hear you better. Now can you hear me?
Speaker 1: I can hear you perfectly.
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, what essential voice.
Speaker 1: Okay, I haven't heard that word in a minute.
Speaker 5: Oh it's fabulous, my gosh. And so you were from Peru.
Speaker 1: I was born in Lima and I came to this
Speaker 1: country when I was nine years old, and oh my gosh,
Speaker 1: I haven't left since grew up in Hollywood.
Speaker 5: Oh you did.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I went to Hollywood High.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that was.
Speaker 1: One of the schools that got kicked out of you
Speaker 1: Where are you from?
Speaker 5: Don't you know that men are from Mars?
Speaker 1: Don't you You're far away from home?
Speaker 5: Look at my planet? Gosh. So I grew up in
Speaker 5: Colorado on snowskis and then a little bit on horseback
Speaker 5: until my parents got divorced and we ended up coming
Speaker 5: to Central California. I fell in love with baseball. That
Speaker 5: was my first love and life. And then you might
Speaker 5: have heard earlier, I developed epilepsy, and so it threw
Speaker 5: off my ability to hit a curveball. And it also
Speaker 5: kind of every time in college during finals periods, I
Speaker 5: ended up in the hospital. So kind of took care
Speaker 5: of my first two career ideas professional baseball and then
Speaker 5: being a lawyer. But I was blessed even then, Lilyana
Speaker 5: to you know, I've heard I've had people say, oh,
Speaker 5: it's too bad, and I'm like, you know, I'm the
Speaker 5: most fortunate man on earth. And even then I thought, well,
Speaker 5: I guess God's just got another plan for me. Even
Speaker 5: though boy, it was hard losing baseball and I've just
Speaker 5: sort of ended up here. I really would like to
Speaker 5: end up in some kind of a smaller town where
Speaker 5: there's a sense of community, and it could be anywhere
Speaker 5: in the world. That's the other piece I'll give you
Speaker 5: is my what you call it retirement whatnot doesn't go
Speaker 5: real far in California. It's okay.
Speaker 1: Anywhere in the world anymore.
Speaker 5: I'm also interested in seeing the world. I don't know
Speaker 5: if you have some interest in travel. Are you're going
Speaker 5: to start volunteering around the world a little bit, doing
Speaker 5: some volunteer projects, building hospitals for children and taking care
Speaker 5: of some refugees and stuff, sometimes just for a week
Speaker 5: here and there. And I want to see the world
Speaker 5: a little bit. What about you?
Speaker 1: That would be an amazing thing to do. The only
Speaker 1: thing that keeps me in Los Angeles, And it's funny
Speaker 1: because a lot of people ask me, are you going
Speaker 1: to stay here? I have a daughter. She lives in Arizona, Arizona.
Speaker 1: I have two grandsons who are with her.
Speaker 5: She in Phoenix area where.
Speaker 1: She's just in Gilbert, twenty minutes from Phoenix. Yeah, right
Speaker 1: next to Messa. And she is very happy where she's at.
Speaker 1: And up until now, the only thing that holds me
Speaker 1: to La is Hollywood is doing my commercials and doing
Speaker 1: my acting now doing the podcast, which is what has
Speaker 1: fulfilled my days up until now. Now when this idea
Speaker 1: of the show came about, of finding me, you know,
Speaker 1: I keep joking to with all the contestants, well don't
Speaker 1: you have a grandpa or a single uncle that you
Speaker 1: can hook me up with? And most of them don't.
Speaker 1: So then they decided, here, why don't we just do
Speaker 1: a show? And I thought, I'm game, you know, let's
Speaker 1: try it out. And because though I've been married several times,
Speaker 1: my desperate need and I'm gonna cry on this, my
Speaker 1: desperate need not to be alone, my desperate need to
Speaker 1: be loved, pushed me from one to the other, one
Speaker 1: mistake after the other, and finally I had all these long,
Speaker 1: lonely years because you said it before, or I'm sorry
Speaker 1: one of you said it, but friends leave you, family dies,
Speaker 1: and at the end it's just you.
Speaker 10: Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I want somebody who is going to see my heart,
Speaker 1: who is going to take care of it the same
Speaker 1: way that I'm going to do that for my partner.
Speaker 1: I love to spoil, I love to love, I love
Speaker 1: to laugh, and I love adventures. I haven't had many
Speaker 1: of them because I've been so busy trying to make
Speaker 1: a living, you know, for the past few years when
Speaker 1: you're alone. You know, I ended up selling my house.
Speaker 1: The house was empty, no need for me to keep it.
Speaker 1: And so many things changed, but the one constant thing
Speaker 1: was that I stayed in la that things can change
Speaker 1: in the future, of course they can. So do I
Speaker 1: want a partner, Yes, I do want a partner. But
Speaker 1: at the same time, you know, if it happens and
Speaker 1: you needed to travel somewhere, you know, go, I'll still
Speaker 1: be here when you get back. You know, if it's
Speaker 1: going to take longer, we can discuss it. Things that
Speaker 1: we can plan together through time. How did you get
Speaker 1: on this show?
Speaker 5: I don't Oh, but one of the things I love
Speaker 5: about what you just said there something about doing this
Speaker 5: show today. You said, I'll give it a try. That's
Speaker 5: a huge thing to me, Lana is try things. Gosh,
Speaker 5: I try to teach my son. You know, if you
Speaker 5: don't ask, you'll never know. If you don't try, you'll
Speaker 5: never I mean, just try things. And so I saw
Speaker 5: this thing. Even though I don't remember signing up for it,
Speaker 5: I don't know when it was. It could have been
Speaker 5: a year ago, I said, sure, So I didn't really
Speaker 5: know what I was getting into and didn't know the
Speaker 5: format or anything else. But the magic of meeting you
Speaker 5: makes it worth it, right, And even if I hadn't
Speaker 5: had that blessing and been that fortunate, it would have
Speaker 5: been an adventure, been something new to try that I'd
Speaker 5: never known about this.
Speaker 1: Vigo, Well, I'm going to tell you one thing. I
Speaker 1: love how my name sounds on your lips. Hey, yay yygo.
