However, 52 00:02:52,560 --> 00:02:55,240 Speaker 1: they take your phone on the bacheloreat so you have 53 00:02:55,320 --> 00:02:58,520 Speaker 1: no contact, no internet, no TV kind of that. And 54 00:02:58,600 --> 00:03:01,080 Speaker 1: literally the day I turned it on on after the show, 55 00:03:01,120 --> 00:03:04,799 Speaker 1: it ended so much stuff came through, so many d 56 00:03:04,960 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: M so many new followers, so many text messages, so 57 00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: many emails.

And I kind of took her word for it, 82 00:04:28,360 --> 00:04:30,719 Speaker 1: took her advice. She had been through the prior season 83 00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,640 Speaker 1: with Ben Higgins and experienced at all exactly what was 84 00:04:33,680 --> 00:04:36,599 Speaker 1: going on, so UM that kind of opened my eyes 85 00:04:36,640 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 1: to like, yeah, this is actually gonna change a little bit, 86 00:04:39,000 --> 00:04:41,919 Speaker 1: because in that moment while we're filming, I had no idea. 87 00:04:42,040 --> 00:04:44,120 Speaker 1: I can't see my Instagram. I don't know what's going on. 88 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:48,960 Speaker 1: But um, it is a huge distraction. It is very 89 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: even to this day, you can get stuck down the 90 00:04:51,400 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: hole and just let's talk about that. So, so can 91 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:58,000 Speaker 1: you unpack that for me and for our listeners. So 92 00:04:58,080 --> 00:04:59,599 Speaker 1: just to give you a little bit of my history, 93 00:04:59,760 --> 00:05:03,480 Speaker 1: I ever had social media until I was dating. Um, 94 00:05:03,520 --> 00:05:07,360 Speaker 1: I got social media at the end of I think 95 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:12,000 Speaker 1: or start somewhere in the late bloomer. Also, yeah, so 96 00:05:12,480 --> 00:05:15,279 Speaker 1: I was dating. So I never had history of being 97 00:05:15,320 --> 00:05:17,800 Speaker 1: single and sliding into d m s And how can 98 00:05:17,839 --> 00:05:21,800 Speaker 1: I use social media in the dating world? So let 99 00:05:21,800 --> 00:05:25,080 Speaker 1: me unless I want to have you unpack how this 100 00:05:25,200 --> 00:05:30,400 Speaker 1: became sort of a tool for connection and opportunity for 101 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,000 Speaker 1: you in the dating world. Well, in my mind, uh, 102 00:05:34,120 --> 00:05:37,320 Speaker 1: you know, even going down to posting a photo and 103 00:05:37,360 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 1: getting a thousand comments, like the first few weeks, I 104 00:05:41,960 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 1: was a guy that like tried to respond to all 105 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:46,400 Speaker 1: of them. So I just got my heart broke in 106 00:05:46,640 --> 00:05:48,479 Speaker 1: and you know I did the things right that the 107 00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,240 Speaker 1: guy who won didn't necessarily do asking her parents for permission, 108 00:05:52,720 --> 00:05:56,400 Speaker 1: all that nonsense, and so half the message I was 109 00:05:56,440 --> 00:05:59,200 Speaker 1: getting was like your mom raised you so well, or 110 00:05:59,240 --> 00:06:02,520 Speaker 1: like my mom's Facebook had like thousands of new messages, 111 00:06:02,680 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: was like your son was such a things you raised 112 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,719 Speaker 1: him well, good job.

And 173 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:58,000 Speaker 1: at my college when I go back for games, I 174 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:01,560 Speaker 1: was getting cornered and grocery stores and airports and Starbucks, 175 00:09:01,600 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 1: you know, all the basic white girl places. Um, and 176 00:09:05,320 --> 00:09:07,839 Speaker 1: I was just kind of going through it. But nowadays 177 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:11,760 Speaker 1: there are things I look for and I don't really 178 00:09:11,760 --> 00:09:14,120 Speaker 1: respond to everyone because I know that people can kind 179 00:09:14,120 --> 00:09:16,480 Speaker 1: of hold onto conversations and once I say I thank 180 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,920 Speaker 1: you for the support and all that, then they're like, well, 181 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:20,560 Speaker 1: how about we get a drink And I'm like, well, 182 00:09:20,840 --> 00:09:23,320 Speaker 1: I see where this is going now. Um. But there 183 00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:25,600 Speaker 1: are a few things I look for. One definitely is 184 00:09:26,080 --> 00:09:28,600 Speaker 1: you know, I want to see some type of pictures 185 00:09:28,640 --> 00:09:31,040 Speaker 1: with their family. Um. You know, families first. For me, 186 00:09:31,720 --> 00:09:36,120 Speaker 1: it's what I hold highest above work, above anything else, 187 00:09:36,679 --> 00:09:39,040 Speaker 1: is my family. I'm the oldest of five and we're 188 00:09:39,080 --> 00:09:41,960 Speaker 1: all within six years. So like I'm thirty one, my 189 00:09:42,040 --> 00:09:46,000 Speaker 1: younger sisters twenty four, super close family. And there's none 190 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: of your friends or there's none of your families, that's 191 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,440 Speaker 1: a red flag to me. Um. I also really like 192 00:09:51,520 --> 00:09:53,640 Speaker 1: the ones that are creative, Like I'll never forget I 193 00:09:53,679 --> 00:09:56,600 Speaker 1: had a girl sent me a picture of a bed, 194 00:09:57,400 --> 00:10:03,360 Speaker 1: a coffee table, and a ask just basic pictures, random 195 00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,400 Speaker 1: like product photos, not even in a room. And the 196 00:10:06,440 --> 00:10:09,560 Speaker 1: only message she sent was I just slid in or 197 00:10:09,600 --> 00:10:11,440 Speaker 1: I just moved into your d M. And I was like, 198 00:10:11,480 --> 00:10:15,600 Speaker 1: I get it, okay, Yeah, I'll respond to the clever 199 00:10:15,679 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: ones like that, the ones that I make me giggle 200 00:10:18,880 --> 00:10:23,640 Speaker 1: or catch my attention. Um, but also location matters, you know, 201 00:10:23,800 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 1: like there could be a beautiful woman from Russia that 202 00:10:26,480 --> 00:10:28,240 Speaker 1: wants to meet me, but like when am I gonna 203 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:30,560 Speaker 1: be I could go visit. Don't get me wrong, I 204 00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: travel ton, but I'm not gonna go over there and 205 00:10:34,240 --> 00:10:36,240 Speaker 1: settle down. You're probably not gonna come over here and 206 00:10:36,240 --> 00:10:38,480 Speaker 1: settle down. And how am I gonna introduce you to 207 00:10:38,520 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 1: my family? And a lot of people think I'm crazy 208 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:44,520 Speaker 1: in the sense that I will introduce you to my family, 209 00:10:46,200 --> 00:10:48,600 Speaker 1: you know, a month after I've known you. A lot 210 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 1: of people wait until a year and a half or 211 00:10:50,520 --> 00:10:52,880 Speaker 1: a year until they're comfortable and they know you're the one. 212 00:10:53,600 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 1: I want to get you inspart of my family, to 213 00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:57,040 Speaker 1: see if you can hang, to see if you can 214 00:10:57,080 --> 00:10:59,360 Speaker 1: deal without a loud your art, and to see if 215 00:10:59,400 --> 00:11:01,920 Speaker 1: you mash if you don't I'm wasting my time. I'm 216 00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:05,880 Speaker 1: not going someone that my parents dislike just value their 217 00:11:05,920 --> 00:11:10,760 Speaker 1: opinion too much, and quite frankly, of everyone in the world, 218 00:11:10,920 --> 00:11:14,160 Speaker 1: they know me best. So what catches your attention more? 219 00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: The caption or the photo in a d M. Oh, 220 00:11:17,400 --> 00:11:22,000 Speaker 1: that's that's a dangerous question. There's limitless abilities with the 221 00:11:22,080 --> 00:11:26,280 Speaker 1: with the with the photo or like even just even 222 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: just like say the person's profile photo, that's definitely the 223 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:33,640 Speaker 1: caption that it's definitely the message they send. If it's clever, 224 00:11:33,840 --> 00:11:37,120 Speaker 1: it's heart felt. Um, you know, if they're not too 225 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:40,120 Speaker 1: aggressive off the bat, then I know that you kind 226 00:11:40,120 --> 00:11:42,840 Speaker 1: of have a good heart, You're you're probably really interested 227 00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:46,600 Speaker 1: in it, and we can talk through see what happens. Yeah, 228 00:11:47,040 --> 00:11:49,720 Speaker 1: I think we've talked about this many times, especially since 229 00:11:49,800 --> 00:11:53,960 Speaker 1: COVID on this show. Um, that the world is really 230 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:56,920 Speaker 1: waking up and getting a lot better at at interpreting 231 00:11:56,960 --> 00:12:02,000 Speaker 1: digital energy. So in those d M platforms that are 232 00:12:02,000 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 1: coming out with giving you different ways to express it, right, 233 00:12:04,880 --> 00:12:06,959 Speaker 1: and so in your d MS you can tell like, wow, 234 00:12:07,440 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: this person just wrote one sentence, but it feels very genuine, 235 00:12:10,600 --> 00:12:14,000 Speaker 1: it feels very SCAREDI or this person wrote one sentence, 236 00:12:14,040 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 1: and this is just like this person just wants to 237 00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:18,800 Speaker 1: hook up. You know what helps with that is when 238 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 1: someone sends something like, Hey, I really enjoyed you on 239 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: the show. I loved how you put your heart out there. Um, 240 00:12:27,080 --> 00:12:29,920 Speaker 1: don't worry about the breakup. You'll find the right person. 241 00:12:30,000 --> 00:12:33,439 Speaker 1: Because it almost makes me feel like they've been through it. 242 00:12:33,440 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: It's like it's like they're they're there by my side, 243 00:12:37,160 --> 00:12:40,200 Speaker 1: patty my shoulder, you know, scratching my back, letting me 244 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:42,800 Speaker 1: know that you know what you went through, we've been 245 00:12:42,840 --> 00:12:47,040 Speaker 1: through you'll make it through it. Stuff like that gets 246 00:12:47,080 --> 00:12:49,719 Speaker 1: me too when it when they kind of related to themselves. 247 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 1: It's not in a conceited way or an arrogant way, 248 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,920 Speaker 1: but like you know, I had to go through this 249 00:12:56,000 --> 00:13:00,760 Speaker 1: as well, You'll get through this just like I did.

Like I said, back then, 336 00:17:54,720 --> 00:17:56,880 Speaker 1: i'd go through them, make sure I didn't know them 337 00:17:57,040 --> 00:18:01,560 Speaker 1: or if they were to response, I respond, um. But yeah, nowadays, 338 00:18:01,920 --> 00:18:05,560 Speaker 1: uh more so what catches my attention would be responding 339 00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:12,840 Speaker 1: to a story. As I think in some situations. You know, 340 00:18:12,880 --> 00:18:15,040 Speaker 1: how the d m s have a like, well, now 341 00:18:15,080 --> 00:18:17,920 Speaker 1: they have one folder, it's your inbox, which is divided 342 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,639 Speaker 1: up into primary and general General, and then you have 343 00:18:20,680 --> 00:18:24,760 Speaker 1: the other requests. Yeah. So um, I think if you 344 00:18:24,840 --> 00:18:28,280 Speaker 1: respond to stories, it's gets requests and goes straight to 345 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:31,840 Speaker 1: your inbox, and so if if you follow them, if 346 00:18:31,880 --> 00:18:36,240 Speaker 1: I follow them, yeah, I get those notifications a lot better. 347 00:18:36,440 --> 00:18:39,480 Speaker 1: And I've found that people get responses quicker because they 348 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:42,119 Speaker 1: do that, and so I'll do that as well. I 349 00:18:42,200 --> 00:18:45,200 Speaker 1: respond to stories instead, just because it's also relative. It's 350 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:48,119 Speaker 1: not some weird dude with blue check mark slide in 351 00:18:48,160 --> 00:18:49,960 Speaker 1: your d M being like, hey you're gorgeous. Well you 352 00:18:49,960 --> 00:18:53,080 Speaker 1: probably knew that, that's why you're posting all these beautiful photos. 353 00:18:53,640 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 1: But responding to a d M or responding to a story, 354 00:18:57,240 --> 00:18:59,879 Speaker 1: and you know, relating to something like they're in Ibiza. 355 00:19:00,760 --> 00:19:02,800 Speaker 1: I loved when I went back in two thousand seventeen. 356 00:19:02,880 --> 00:19:05,359 Speaker 1: You know, yeah, I find do you try and find 357 00:19:05,359 --> 00:19:08,560 Speaker 1: common ground with that approach? Then yeah, common ground is key. 358 00:19:08,680 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: I I think, you know, if someone says something that 359 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:12,159 Speaker 1: I have no idea they're talking about, I'm probably not 360 00:19:12,160 --> 00:19:14,840 Speaker 1: gonna respond. But if they say something like I said earlier, 361 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:16,119 Speaker 1: like oh I went to high school with your mom. 362 00:19:16,119 --> 00:19:17,520 Speaker 1: I'm gonna be like, no way, and then I'm gonna 363 00:19:17,520 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 1: call my mom and be like, hey, I met Harriet. 364 00:19:19,600 --> 00:19:26,399 Speaker 1: You know. Yeah, um, how direct? How direct are most 365 00:19:26,400 --> 00:19:29,760 Speaker 1: people with you?

They followed 376 00:20:06,800 --> 00:20:10,359 Speaker 1: ten people, and they're all blue check marks, and they're 377 00:20:10,400 --> 00:20:15,280 Speaker 1: probably a dude behind the pictures of these girls that yeah, 378 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:19,000 Speaker 1: you're super careful. I mean, I already have, you know, 379 00:20:19,080 --> 00:20:22,120 Speaker 1: pr issues with the whole sex tape issue that came out, 380 00:20:22,800 --> 00:20:25,440 Speaker 1: and I don't need you know, some other dude blackmailing 381 00:20:25,640 --> 00:20:28,400 Speaker 1: me because I got excited about fake photos he sent, 382 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:32,840 Speaker 1: So I'm very cautious. It is a big revenue stream 383 00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:35,200 Speaker 1: for me. I don't want to lose that. I don't 384 00:20:35,200 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: want to lose any credibility on it, and my fans 385 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:42,720 Speaker 1: and followers deserved that.

You 523 00:28:13,080 --> 00:28:15,680 Speaker 1: get a thirst trap first, and then people are sliding 524 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:17,600 Speaker 1: into your d m s and it you know, it's 525 00:28:17,600 --> 00:28:20,040 Speaker 1: it's it works, It's just out's working. Is that is 526 00:28:20,080 --> 00:28:22,880 Speaker 1: this is the thirst trap kind of like the gateway 527 00:28:22,960 --> 00:28:25,719 Speaker 1: drug and it's a very slippery slope. After that, all 528 00:28:25,720 --> 00:28:27,280 Speaker 1: of a sudden it's d m S and then all 529 00:28:27,320 --> 00:28:31,040 Speaker 1: of a sudden, I find myself sending nudes. What I'll 530 00:28:31,080 --> 00:28:34,919 Speaker 1: be on probably for that one too, so you'll be 531 00:28:35,000 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: my therapist like, oh page, I did it. Oh god, 532 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:41,440 Speaker 1: it happened. Yeah, I'm like the devil on your shoulder, 533 00:28:41,720 --> 00:28:45,280 Speaker 1: like do it do yeah? Probably? Um okay, So we 534 00:28:45,320 --> 00:28:47,760 Speaker 1: want to the goal of this show one is always 535 00:28:47,760 --> 00:28:49,280 Speaker 1: just to have fun. So I love having you on 536 00:28:49,320 --> 00:28:52,200 Speaker 1: because we always have so much fun too. During COVID 537 00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:55,800 Speaker 1: people our community are how many think listeners are are 538 00:28:55,880 --> 00:28:58,680 Speaker 1: finding that really the only way they're able to still 539 00:28:58,720 --> 00:29:02,040 Speaker 1: have connection and possible meet new people is through d MS. 540 00:29:02,840 --> 00:29:04,280 Speaker 1: So we wanted to do a deep dive into the 541 00:29:04,400 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 1: art of sliding into d m s and then also 542 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:12,520 Speaker 1: receiving of d ms. Um So, in your history, what 543 00:29:12,640 --> 00:29:15,560 Speaker 1: have let's let's even start with your your Instagram history 544 00:29:15,560 --> 00:29:18,000 Speaker 1: and your social media history. When did you start using 545 00:29:18,000 --> 00:29:20,360 Speaker 1: social media and when did you start using d MS? 546 00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:24,440 Speaker 1: I mean ever since I got a phone, you just 547 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:28,040 Speaker 1: would have social media and direct messaging is just a 548 00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:30,280 Speaker 1: way to communicate with people. So it's never something that 549 00:29:30,360 --> 00:29:32,320 Speaker 1: was like weird for me. It was almost like sending 550 00:29:32,320 --> 00:29:34,720 Speaker 1: a tax It just feels very normal and natural. I 551 00:29:34,760 --> 00:29:38,640 Speaker 1: will say now, or when I became like a public figure, 552 00:29:39,280 --> 00:29:42,840 Speaker 1: I would never really send d MS unless it's like 553 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:45,720 Speaker 1: to my friends. I've never really like reached out to 554 00:29:46,240 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: someone before. I've always had just people reach out to me. Um. 555 00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:53,640 Speaker 1: Just because I'm sure you know this as well. It 556 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,480 Speaker 1: can be very overwhelming, like the amount of messages and 557 00:29:56,560 --> 00:29:58,440 Speaker 1: d MS that you get from people, and like as 558 00:29:58,440 --> 00:30:00,400 Speaker 1: soon as you answer one person, then you kind of 559 00:30:00,400 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: have to keep up a conversation with that person. And 560 00:30:02,560 --> 00:30:04,400 Speaker 1: so it's always like do I want to respond and 561 00:30:04,400 --> 00:30:07,360 Speaker 1: then keep up a conversation because once you respond, you 562 00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:11,840 Speaker 1: can't just not respond anymore. So it's, uh, it's it's interesting. 563 00:30:12,320 --> 00:30:15,200 Speaker 1: But I think also people realize that you have two 564 00:30:15,200 --> 00:30:18,440 Speaker 1: and a half three million followers on Instagram and and 565 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:22,160 Speaker 1: they're not the only person in the world that you 566 00:30:22,160 --> 00:30:26,320 Speaker 1: are talking to. You're a very busy person, um, professional golfer. 567 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:29,680 Speaker 1: You have a say that you think that. And that's 568 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:31,680 Speaker 1: probably one thing I don't like about d m s 569 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: is when people assume that you're the only person that 570 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:36,840 Speaker 1: they're talking to. So if someone will send a message 571 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:39,600 Speaker 1: and then maybe a couple of days later, even a 572 00:30:39,640 --> 00:30:42,040 Speaker 1: couple of hours later, they'll send another message, like how 573 00:30:42,080 --> 00:30:44,800 Speaker 1: would you not respond to me? I want to respond, 574 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:48,080 Speaker 1: and I'm like I'm trying, Like I can barely text 575 00:30:48,120 --> 00:30:50,400 Speaker 1: my parents back, like I'm not gonna DM me about 576 00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:54,080 Speaker 1: like my whole entire life story. Right, I can handle 577 00:30:54,120 --> 00:30:56,440 Speaker 1: on In the average day, I can handle like three 578 00:30:56,480 --> 00:30:59,400 Speaker 1: phone calls and five text messages and and then my 579 00:30:59,440 --> 00:31:01,760 Speaker 1: head blows off. And that's not even counting emails, and 580 00:31:01,800 --> 00:31:05,440 Speaker 1: that's not even counting d ms. Um. So it's just 581 00:31:05,600 --> 00:31:08,200 Speaker 1: I'm not wired to sit at a computer and type 582 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,120 Speaker 1: and whatever. So like mind just backed up by have 583 00:31:10,120 --> 00:31:13,040 Speaker 1: mountains of text messages. I haven't responded. I'm just not 584 00:31:13,120 --> 00:31:15,800 Speaker 1: good at that. I'm good at FaceTime you FaceTime meet, 585 00:31:15,840 --> 00:31:17,440 Speaker 1: I'll answer because I want to see your face, because 586 00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:19,480 Speaker 1: I love people and I want to see your face. 587 00:31:19,520 --> 00:31:22,480 Speaker 1: But digital messages messages like that, I'm not that good at. 588 00:31:22,560 --> 00:31:27,120 Speaker 1: But let's dive into, um, let's dive into d m 589 00:31:27,240 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 1: s and how somebody might use a d M to 590 00:31:30,120 --> 00:31:33,719 Speaker 1: make a connection. So let's say, um, let's go from 591 00:31:33,760 --> 00:31:38,320 Speaker 1: the female perspective first. So there's somebody. There's somebody that 592 00:31:38,400 --> 00:31:41,640 Speaker 1: you like that a female likes a male and wants 593 00:31:41,680 --> 00:31:45,000 Speaker 1: to get this man's attention. What is a way that 594 00:31:45,080 --> 00:31:48,320 Speaker 1: you in the past or you have used, or a 595 00:31:48,400 --> 00:31:52,120 Speaker 1: way that you could advise our listeners on on sliding 596 00:31:52,160 --> 00:31:56,680 Speaker 1: into this person's d M. Yeah, well, there's usually a process. 597 00:31:56,720 --> 00:31:59,240 Speaker 1: So first you have to follow the person and then 598 00:31:59,440 --> 00:32:02,200 Speaker 1: you like I would say about three to five pictures, 599 00:32:02,280 --> 00:32:04,080 Speaker 1: usually in a row so they can see your name 600 00:32:04,160 --> 00:32:08,479 Speaker 1: pop up. And after you do that, normally that person 601 00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:11,160 Speaker 1: will then d M you and they'll just be like, hey, 602 00:32:11,200 --> 00:32:13,600 Speaker 1: what's going on. But if they don't do that, then 603 00:32:13,880 --> 00:32:17,959 Speaker 1: I would normally just say something funny. I like funny 604 00:32:18,040 --> 00:32:20,280 Speaker 1: d M s. I think that catches my attention a lot. 605 00:32:20,600 --> 00:32:23,240 Speaker 1: I hate when someone will just send like hey, or 606 00:32:23,680 --> 00:32:27,240 Speaker 1: how are you, or like what's up? I want to laugh. 607 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,959 Speaker 1: I want to be entertained. I want to like have 608 00:32:30,160 --> 00:32:33,400 Speaker 1: a connection from the very start and to startart a 609 00:32:33,400 --> 00:32:35,440 Speaker 1: conversation because it's so hard when I was like hey, 610 00:32:35,480 --> 00:32:37,200 Speaker 1: and then what do you say back to that? You 611 00:32:37,200 --> 00:32:40,160 Speaker 1: know you can't do anything. So when guys DM me 612 00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:43,280 Speaker 1: and they say things that are really funny. My favorite 613 00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:46,000 Speaker 1: one is they'll send like a um emojis of different 614 00:32:46,040 --> 00:32:49,000 Speaker 1: furniture and they say, hey, sorry, just moving into your 615 00:32:49,160 --> 00:32:52,520 Speaker 1: d m s. Or they'll do one where they will 616 00:32:52,520 --> 00:32:54,720 Speaker 1: send a picture of their dog and they're like, sorry, 617 00:32:54,800 --> 00:32:58,320 Speaker 1: my dog's lost. Uh I found him in your DMS. 618 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:03,120 Speaker 1: So like that, Yeah, like really it's really smooth, it's funny. 619 00:33:03,440 --> 00:33:06,000 Speaker 1: I had a guy once asked me, like what my 620 00:33:06,080 --> 00:33:10,240 Speaker 1: favorite soup was, but he would I didn't respond right away, 621 00:33:10,600 --> 00:33:13,200 Speaker 1: and he kept every day. It was consistent. He'd be 622 00:33:13,200 --> 00:33:17,040 Speaker 1: like chicken noodle. Uh, you just started naming like different soups. 623 00:33:17,040 --> 00:33:19,200 Speaker 1: And I finally had to respond because I was like, 624 00:33:19,240 --> 00:33:21,640 Speaker 1: this guy is so persistent. When you're so funny, it's 625 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:24,960 Speaker 1: something that's different. UM. Usually though, like when I would 626 00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: sign in someone's dm s, I'm trying to think, I mean, 627 00:33:28,360 --> 00:33:30,440 Speaker 1: just you just make it fun. Just try to catch 628 00:33:30,480 --> 00:33:33,680 Speaker 1: their attention. Maybe pick up something that's on their Instagram. 629 00:33:33,720 --> 00:33:36,800 Speaker 1: So if they were like, um fishing, then I maybe 630 00:33:37,480 --> 00:33:39,520 Speaker 1: make a funny joke about that, or if they really 631 00:33:39,560 --> 00:33:42,280 Speaker 1: like golf, you know, mentioned that, but always come in 632 00:33:42,320 --> 00:33:45,000 Speaker 1: with like a question or something like a kind of 633 00:33:45,080 --> 00:33:48,080 Speaker 1: joke just so they have like their forced to respond 634 00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:51,320 Speaker 1: at that point. It's it's interesting that that humor is 635 00:33:51,400 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: one way that catches your eye, you know, because different people, 636 00:33:54,680 --> 00:33:56,600 Speaker 1: like we just talked about Robbie. He was talking about 637 00:33:56,600 --> 00:34:02,000 Speaker 1: like anything family or friends related, anything creative, um locations. 638 00:34:02,040 --> 00:34:03,840 Speaker 1: If somebody says, hey, I live in l A as well, 639 00:34:03,960 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: he's like, oh, that catches my attention right away. Um 640 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:09,800 Speaker 1: for you, he never mentioned, like he said, be fun, 641 00:34:09,920 --> 00:34:13,600 Speaker 1: but you really mentioned humor. So humor is one way 642 00:34:13,640 --> 00:34:18,279 Speaker 1: that you receive positive affirmation from a d M. Yeah, 643 00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,960 Speaker 1: I think it it comes up non threatening. If someone 644 00:34:22,200 --> 00:34:25,239 Speaker 1: will side my d M and they say, hey, I 645 00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:28,839 Speaker 1: see you're in Arizona, I'm in town. Let's grab drink 646 00:34:28,920 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: or something that's almost like, okay, how do you know 647 00:34:30,960 --> 00:34:34,239 Speaker 1: where I live? And it almost seems like they have 648 00:34:34,760 --> 00:34:39,080 Speaker 1: an agenda instead of when it's kind of fun and silly. 649 00:34:39,120 --> 00:34:41,400 Speaker 1: I'm just interested in knowing them better and then you 650 00:34:41,400 --> 00:34:43,000 Speaker 1: can kind of move into that. But I don't like 651 00:34:43,080 --> 00:34:46,360 Speaker 1: when it's too direct right off from the front. M Okay. 652 00:34:46,760 --> 00:34:49,600 Speaker 1: So because I know you've and you've shared it, you've 653 00:34:49,600 --> 00:34:51,279 Speaker 1: had a history of that. I mean, you're very open 654 00:34:51,280 --> 00:34:54,720 Speaker 1: on your podcast playing around where you talk about using 655 00:34:54,800 --> 00:34:56,680 Speaker 1: d M s and you talk about your experience on 656 00:34:56,760 --> 00:34:58,920 Speaker 1: d M s, and you talk a lot about negative 657 00:34:59,000 --> 00:35:03,520 Speaker 1: experience d M. What are some of the like worst experiences? 658 00:35:04,239 --> 00:35:07,759 Speaker 1: Um that that what some of the worst ways that 659 00:35:07,800 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 1: men can DM somebody something that you'd advise our male community, like, 660 00:35:11,800 --> 00:35:14,560 Speaker 1: do not do this from a female perspective. This will 661 00:35:14,600 --> 00:35:18,080 Speaker 1: never get a response. UM, I feel like this is 662 00:35:18,120 --> 00:35:22,280 Speaker 1: pretty self explanatory, and you feel I feel like guys 663 00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:26,239 Speaker 1: should just notice, but they really don't. UM, do not 664 00:35:26,360 --> 00:35:29,200 Speaker 1: send a dick picture as the very first d M 665 00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:32,440 Speaker 1: you ever sent a female. It is never ever going 666 00:35:32,520 --> 00:35:35,680 Speaker 1: to work. It's never going to work. Just don't send 667 00:35:35,840 --> 00:35:39,840 Speaker 1: a dick picture. It's not the move. It's not the move. 668 00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:44,000 Speaker 1: I hand up. I have never ever in my life 669 00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:47,680 Speaker 1: sent a dick pick. I've note. Maybe it would work 670 00:35:47,760 --> 00:35:50,040 Speaker 1: for you, though, if you just started sending like random 671 00:35:50,040 --> 00:35:55,320 Speaker 1: girls dig pictures like I'm all about it, I don't 672 00:35:55,360 --> 00:35:58,680 Speaker 1: think it work. I have a buddy, one of my 673 00:35:58,719 --> 00:36:00,560 Speaker 1: best friends in the world. Why day I was at 674 00:36:00,600 --> 00:36:03,719 Speaker 1: practice and I came out of practice and I had 675 00:36:03,719 --> 00:36:07,000 Speaker 1: a text message from him, and he's very opposite of me, 676 00:36:07,560 --> 00:36:10,640 Speaker 1: and the text message just said I sent five dick pics. 677 00:36:10,680 --> 00:36:14,799 Speaker 1: This morning and it was only nine am, and I 678 00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:17,000 Speaker 1: was like, oh my god. And then I was asked. 679 00:36:17,040 --> 00:36:19,200 Speaker 1: I was like, I've never said one. I have never 680 00:36:19,239 --> 00:36:20,840 Speaker 1: said one in my life. Still to this day, I 681 00:36:20,920 --> 00:36:23,640 Speaker 1: have never said one. Um. I was like, how do 682 00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:26,480 Speaker 1: you do it, like just just the dick or do 683 00:36:26,520 --> 00:36:28,640 Speaker 1: you put the face in it? The body? And he goes, oh, 684 00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:30,279 Speaker 1: I did the whole thing, face, all of it. And 685 00:36:30,360 --> 00:36:32,120 Speaker 1: I'm like, oh my god, Like, do you realize the 686 00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:36,680 Speaker 1: internets forever? Like that's out there now? Um. But I agree. 687 00:36:36,719 --> 00:36:38,840 Speaker 1: I even I get some of those. I get some 688 00:36:38,920 --> 00:36:42,600 Speaker 1: dick pics in mind randomly. I don't know why. Um. 689 00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 1: And it's the most startling and like abrupt thing ever. 690 00:36:46,200 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 1: And it's not nice to look at at all. No, No, 691 00:36:49,480 --> 00:36:52,000 Speaker 1: it's not fun. I don't want to see that. But 692 00:36:52,080 --> 00:36:54,640 Speaker 1: it's interesting though, because some of my guy friends who 693 00:36:55,080 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: are athletes or have a lot of followers women do 694 00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:01,640 Speaker 1: the opposite. They'll send nude picture but it works for them, 695 00:37:01,680 --> 00:37:04,200 Speaker 1: like that's like their go to move is just to 696 00:37:04,200 --> 00:37:06,560 Speaker 1: be like hey here, like this is what you're getting, 697 00:37:06,640 --> 00:37:09,239 Speaker 1: and they like that. So guys don't just don't do 698 00:37:09,280 --> 00:37:12,040 Speaker 1: it though, guys don't, Okay, don't do it, jest, do 699 00:37:12,160 --> 00:37:15,560 Speaker 1: not do it. You're better than that. Okay, So here's 700 00:37:15,560 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 1: a question for you. So you like a guy, Um, 701 00:37:18,640 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 1: there's somebody that's caught your tension your female. You like 702 00:37:20,920 --> 00:37:23,440 Speaker 1: a guy or a girl, whether it doesn't matter, but 703 00:37:23,520 --> 00:37:26,080 Speaker 1: how do you slide in? What's one? Is it? Is 704 00:37:26,080 --> 00:37:30,000 Speaker 1: it more text and caption based? Is it photo? Is 705 00:37:30,000 --> 00:37:32,960 Speaker 1: it trying to find something that you have common ground on. 706 00:37:33,040 --> 00:37:36,000 Speaker 1: Is it responding to a story? What's what are some 707 00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:39,320 Speaker 1: of the best ways for a female to slide into 708 00:37:39,360 --> 00:37:43,520 Speaker 1: somebody's d M. I think responding to a story is 709 00:37:44,200 --> 00:37:46,759 Speaker 1: really easy to do because you're responding to something that 710 00:37:46,760 --> 00:37:49,239 Speaker 1: they posted and that will usually strike up a conversation 711 00:37:49,960 --> 00:37:53,520 Speaker 1: or again finding common ground, finding a common interest that 712 00:37:53,560 --> 00:37:56,359 Speaker 1: you guys can talk about. But again, always open up 713 00:37:56,360 --> 00:37:58,759 Speaker 1: with a question, make it long so they have to 714 00:37:58,760 --> 00:38:02,120 Speaker 1: respond in if you actually put work into it and 715 00:38:02,120 --> 00:38:04,600 Speaker 1: like you're interested in that person, and I think guys 716 00:38:04,640 --> 00:38:06,920 Speaker 1: really appreciate that, and especially if you come in with 717 00:38:06,960 --> 00:38:09,040 Speaker 1: a little bit of humor and make it fun and 718 00:38:09,120 --> 00:38:11,279 Speaker 1: just try to stand out from what everyone else is 719 00:38:11,280 --> 00:38:13,920 Speaker 1: probably sending that person or trying to be just a 720 00:38:13,920 --> 00:38:17,879 Speaker 1: little bit different. Got you Okay, Um, what's your thoughts 721 00:38:17,880 --> 00:38:22,640 Speaker 1: on sending a photo? Should should a lady send a 722 00:38:22,640 --> 00:38:27,080 Speaker 1: photo as well or just rely on the caption? Um 723 00:38:27,200 --> 00:38:29,080 Speaker 1: mebe me. I don't know. I don't know if that's 724 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:33,760 Speaker 1: the move right away, like first just to send a photo. Um. Sometimes, 725 00:38:33,840 --> 00:38:35,160 Speaker 1: if I'm going through my d M s and I 726 00:38:35,160 --> 00:38:37,040 Speaker 1: see that someone send a photo, I tend just kind 727 00:38:37,040 --> 00:38:40,240 Speaker 1: of skipped through it because when you're looking at someone 728 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:43,200 Speaker 1: it like says it's like black basically so you can't 729 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:44,960 Speaker 1: see in so you have to click on the photo, 730 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:47,040 Speaker 1: like approve them first and then click on it. And 731 00:38:47,080 --> 00:38:48,520 Speaker 1: sometimes I don't like that. I just kind of like 732 00:38:48,560 --> 00:38:51,080 Speaker 1: skip through it. But if I see something that's funny 733 00:38:51,080 --> 00:38:53,439 Speaker 1: in text, sort like a longer text, then I'll tend 734 00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:55,560 Speaker 1: to read that first before I look at a photo. 735 00:38:56,680 --> 00:38:58,480 Speaker 1: Do you get I'm sure you do, because you post 736 00:38:58,560 --> 00:38:59,880 Speaker 1: a lot about your dog. Do you get a lot 737 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:01,959 Speaker 1: of hey, my dog wants to play with your dog? 738 00:39:02,080 --> 00:39:05,560 Speaker 1: Kind of? Yes? Yeah, I love it. I mean I 739 00:39:05,600 --> 00:39:07,160 Speaker 1: will say if a guy sends me a picture of 740 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,919 Speaker 1: his dog, chances that I'm definitely going to respond because 741 00:39:09,960 --> 00:39:12,080 Speaker 1: I just have such a soft spall in my heart 742 00:39:12,120 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 1: for animals. Um, so, but it's also when people like 743 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,680 Speaker 1: respond to my story. And I think that's when if 744 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,319 Speaker 1: you want to send a picture and have up beer 745 00:39:19,400 --> 00:39:22,480 Speaker 1: opening DM, do it in a response to someone else's 746 00:39:22,520 --> 00:39:24,560 Speaker 1: story and be like, if they they're showing their dog, 747 00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:28,040 Speaker 1: you can show your dog. But I don't know, I'm 748 00:39:28,080 --> 00:39:30,880 Speaker 1: not I'm not big on pictures. So so is that 749 00:39:30,960 --> 00:39:34,120 Speaker 1: kind of the way So for our male listens for 750 00:39:34,400 --> 00:39:37,280 Speaker 1: if somebody wants to connect with you or for a female, 751 00:39:37,360 --> 00:39:41,239 Speaker 1: is that kind of like a less intimidating, more common ground, um, 752 00:39:41,680 --> 00:39:46,719 Speaker 1: more organic way to at least open up the connection, 753 00:39:47,320 --> 00:39:50,160 Speaker 1: you know, the flow of communication. Just I love your pop, 754 00:39:50,280 --> 00:39:52,799 Speaker 1: I have a two year old lab or doodle two 755 00:39:52,920 --> 00:39:55,280 Speaker 1: or so whatever they want to say, but at least, um, 756 00:39:55,320 --> 00:39:57,960 Speaker 1: and here's a photo of them or whatever. Or we 757 00:39:58,080 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 1: love my dog loves chasing a phrasebee too, whatever, or 758 00:40:01,000 --> 00:40:04,200 Speaker 1: my dog makes these amazing pots as well. Um, but 759 00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:06,279 Speaker 1: at least that way, at least that way now there's 760 00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:09,879 Speaker 1: they there's more of a give and take and there's 761 00:40:09,880 --> 00:40:14,120 Speaker 1: a line of communication and maybe it's a little less 762 00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:18,480 Speaker 1: direct of a contact then coming out and like, hey, 763 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:20,840 Speaker 1: I want to get drinks with you tonight, you know, 764 00:40:21,320 --> 00:40:23,760 Speaker 1: like you can follow, you can you can organically build 765 00:40:23,800 --> 00:40:25,279 Speaker 1: a little bit of trust and a little bit of 766 00:40:25,360 --> 00:40:30,480 Speaker 1: humor and connection prior to UM, prior to leading the 767 00:40:30,560 --> 00:40:34,080 Speaker 1: conversation where you might ultimately want it to go. Yeah, 768 00:40:34,080 --> 00:40:36,600 Speaker 1: oh yeah, if if someone asked me a question, maybe 769 00:40:36,600 --> 00:40:38,919 Speaker 1: like what kind of food doesn't need go like to eat? 770 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: Or what to what toy is he playing with? Or 771 00:40:41,600 --> 00:40:45,040 Speaker 1: if you'll ask me a question about um, the club 772 00:40:45,360 --> 00:40:47,840 Speaker 1: golf clubs that I'm playing, anything like that, Like a 773 00:40:47,960 --> 00:40:50,520 Speaker 1: question is the best way to kind of like start 774 00:40:50,560 --> 00:40:53,040 Speaker 1: up a conversation. But I will say this, I think 775 00:40:53,040 --> 00:40:56,719 Speaker 1: we put a lot of effort and thought into like 776 00:40:56,880 --> 00:41:00,720 Speaker 1: how we want to communicate with someone else. And truth 777 00:41:00,880 --> 00:41:03,200 Speaker 1: is that person that person either likes you or they 778 00:41:03,239 --> 00:41:06,120 Speaker 1: don't like you. And so you could send this amazing 779 00:41:06,400 --> 00:41:10,120 Speaker 1: dm or an amazing text and they don't respond, then like, 780 00:41:10,200 --> 00:41:13,239 Speaker 1: don't worry about it, Like you'll find another person. And 781 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:15,600 Speaker 1: if you have your own personal style of dm NG 782 00:41:15,600 --> 00:41:18,239 Speaker 1: and maybe that is just sending hey message or maybe 783 00:41:18,239 --> 00:41:20,680 Speaker 1: it is sending a picture. There's no right or wrong 784 00:41:20,719 --> 00:41:24,759 Speaker 1: way to communicate with someone, and everyone communicates differently, and 785 00:41:24,800 --> 00:41:26,319 Speaker 1: so I think that's important to keep in mind, Like 786 00:41:26,440 --> 00:41:28,360 Speaker 1: just do what you want to do. And if the 787 00:41:28,440 --> 00:41:31,680 Speaker 1: person you're like dming doesn't like it, but don't waste 788 00:41:31,680 --> 00:41:33,719 Speaker 1: your time on it. They probably are not gonna like 789 00:41:33,800 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: you anyways, so just move on to the next person. So, okay, 790 00:41:37,880 --> 00:41:40,520 Speaker 1: follow up to that then, So let's say let's say 791 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:42,759 Speaker 1: I d M you. I'm a guy and I d 792 00:41:43,000 --> 00:41:45,520 Speaker 1: M you and asked you a question or something and 793 00:41:45,560 --> 00:41:49,239 Speaker 1: you just responded with a statement or an answer, but 794 00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:52,360 Speaker 1: never asked me a question or anything. Follow up to 795 00:41:52,440 --> 00:41:56,000 Speaker 1: try and keep the conversation going. Should I just take 796 00:41:56,040 --> 00:41:58,640 Speaker 1: that hint? Oh, she's not into me, because if you 797 00:41:58,680 --> 00:42:02,800 Speaker 1: were somewhat sort of to me, you'd probably have something 798 00:42:02,880 --> 00:42:05,520 Speaker 1: some sort of a cliffhanger where I'd have to respond back. 799 00:42:05,600 --> 00:42:09,759 Speaker 1: So this keeps going. Yeah, not necessarily, because there are 800 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:13,160 Speaker 1: times where I have responded back and it didn't warrant 801 00:42:13,200 --> 00:42:16,120 Speaker 1: a question to the other person. Um. But you can 802 00:42:16,200 --> 00:42:18,840 Speaker 1: usually tell if someone is interested in you, buy like 803 00:42:18,880 --> 00:42:22,040 Speaker 1: their use of emojis, if the if it's like a 804 00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:25,399 Speaker 1: one word answer compared to you know, more of death. 805 00:42:25,440 --> 00:42:27,400 Speaker 1: But if I like, if I take my time to 806 00:42:27,560 --> 00:42:30,520 Speaker 1: answer your question and it's long and I'm using emojis 807 00:42:30,520 --> 00:42:33,560 Speaker 1: and I'm probably interested in you. But if you ask 808 00:42:33,640 --> 00:42:36,640 Speaker 1: me something and I'd go yes, then no, like, don't 809 00:42:38,200 --> 00:42:43,400 Speaker 1: don't take take a hint. UM, what kind of emojis? 810 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:46,960 Speaker 1: So I didn't know that emojis meant that somebody is 811 00:42:47,760 --> 00:42:50,239 Speaker 1: sort of into you.

Okay, So here are 840 00:44:32,320 --> 00:44:36,239 Speaker 1: my top three most frequently used emojis. I have the 841 00:44:36,760 --> 00:44:42,279 Speaker 1: double high five, then I have the slanted laughing like 842 00:44:42,640 --> 00:44:47,080 Speaker 1: laughing one, and then I have the prayer hands.

But I usually do that. 847 00:45:01,680 --> 00:45:05,000 Speaker 1: I like high five or I'll laughing or like this 848 00:45:05,040 --> 00:45:06,600 Speaker 1: one for thank you because I'll respond to a lot 849 00:45:06,640 --> 00:45:08,960 Speaker 1: of comments or whatever. People send me yourself. I was like, 850 00:45:09,080 --> 00:45:13,839 Speaker 1: thank you. Um, interesting, okay, so true story. I'm not 851 00:45:13,880 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 1: good at well. I I never had social media until 852 00:45:16,520 --> 00:45:20,719 Speaker 1: I was already dating, so I've never had the d M. Um. 853 00:45:20,760 --> 00:45:23,400 Speaker 1: As far as dating DM, I've reached out to like 854 00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 1: musicians and people that I'm a fan of and connected 855 00:45:25,640 --> 00:45:26,960 Speaker 1: that way and be like, oh my god, I love 856 00:45:27,000 --> 00:45:29,920 Speaker 1: your band or like, and actually made some amazing friends 857 00:45:30,040 --> 00:45:33,120 Speaker 1: that way. Um, but I've never used it as a 858 00:45:33,200 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 1: dating tool. So emojis even I had somebody send me 859 00:45:37,719 --> 00:45:39,200 Speaker 1: l O L. They were sending me l O L 860 00:45:39,239 --> 00:45:40,799 Speaker 1: all the time, and I thought it meant lots of love, 861 00:45:40,840 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: and I'm like, whoa, I gotta hold on. So I'm 862 00:45:44,120 --> 00:45:47,960 Speaker 1: I'm a d M. I'm a d M moron. Um, 863 00:45:48,000 --> 00:45:51,280 Speaker 1: But yeah, what's your thoughts on like, because sometimes people 864 00:45:51,280 --> 00:45:53,760 Speaker 1: will frown on it. I think, however you meet your person, 865 00:45:53,880 --> 00:45:55,719 Speaker 1: whether it's through d M S or whatever it is 866 00:45:55,719 --> 00:45:57,840 Speaker 1: a dating app, however you meet your person is the 867 00:45:57,840 --> 00:46:00,800 Speaker 1: most important thing. What are your thoughts people that frowned 868 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:03,359 Speaker 1: upon or the thought that maybe, oh it's it's kind 869 00:46:03,360 --> 00:46:06,200 Speaker 1: of sketchy to meet somebody via d M. I don't 870 00:46:06,200 --> 00:46:08,400 Speaker 1: think anyone has the right to judge someone else on 871 00:46:08,440 --> 00:46:10,799 Speaker 1: how they meet their other person or how they choose 872 00:46:10,800 --> 00:46:15,160 Speaker 1: to communicate with someone else, especially now with social media 873 00:46:15,520 --> 00:46:18,520 Speaker 1: and just the digital age being so popular. We communicate 874 00:46:18,600 --> 00:46:22,600 Speaker 1: through our phones and that's just how we find people, 875 00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,960 Speaker 1: and and now and quarantine and with everything on, it's 876 00:46:27,000 --> 00:46:29,040 Speaker 1: really hard to go out and meet people. You don't 877 00:46:29,080 --> 00:46:31,080 Speaker 1: have that. And so for anyone to say like you 878 00:46:31,080 --> 00:46:34,080 Speaker 1: can't use a dating app, or or make you feel 879 00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 1: desperate like you you can't find someone on your own, 880 00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:37,960 Speaker 1: so you have to use a dating app, I don't 881 00:46:38,000 --> 00:46:39,440 Speaker 1: agree with that. I think it's an easy way to 882 00:46:39,440 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 1: connect with people and also just to make friends and 883 00:46:41,760 --> 00:46:43,880 Speaker 1: sometimes if you're lonely, just want to talk to people 884 00:46:43,960 --> 00:46:46,600 Speaker 1: and that's an easy way to do it. So UM, 885 00:46:46,760 --> 00:46:50,799 Speaker 1: hopefully that stigma disappears and people can meet people how 886 00:46:50,840 --> 00:46:55,600 Speaker 1: they want to page. That was a wonderful answer. Thank you. Yeah, 887 00:46:55,920 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 1: that was amazing. I hope people listen to that and 888 00:46:58,080 --> 00:47:01,080 Speaker 1: even play that back and hear that again. Um, you're 889 00:47:01,160 --> 00:47:03,800 Speaker 1: so right. Um, nobody has the right to judge anybody 890 00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:05,640 Speaker 1: else on how they meet their person or how they 891 00:47:05,640 --> 00:47:08,239 Speaker 1: go about it. Um. But then also during these times 892 00:47:08,280 --> 00:47:11,799 Speaker 1: during COVID times. Um, people are still single, people are 893 00:47:11,800 --> 00:47:14,439 Speaker 1: still seeking connection in the state of the world. Doesn't 894 00:47:14,440 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 1: mean they have to stop that, you know. So there's 895 00:47:17,080 --> 00:47:22,560 Speaker 1: there's tools at our literally at our fingertips to reach out. Um, 896 00:47:22,600 --> 00:47:25,200 Speaker 1: how many do Here's a question for you. How many 897 00:47:25,280 --> 00:47:28,080 Speaker 1: d ms is too many? So let's say somebody like you. 898 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:30,719 Speaker 1: Let's say I'm d m ng you and I don't 899 00:47:30,719 --> 00:47:33,439 Speaker 1: get noticed because you get a top like the guy 900 00:47:33,480 --> 00:47:36,719 Speaker 1: that asked you about the soup's amazing. It just kept 901 00:47:36,760 --> 00:47:39,000 Speaker 1: coming in and eventually responded. But how many d ms 902 00:47:39,040 --> 00:47:40,680 Speaker 1: is too many? Where you're like, oh, I'm just gonna 903 00:47:40,680 --> 00:47:45,280 Speaker 1: block this person because they continually d M I would say, 904 00:47:45,520 --> 00:47:48,160 Speaker 1: I mean, I've never blocked someone for sending too many, 905 00:47:48,200 --> 00:47:52,200 Speaker 1: because there are times where I'll I'll see it and 906 00:47:52,239 --> 00:47:54,319 Speaker 1: then I'll be scrolling or something else happens, and then 907 00:47:54,320 --> 00:47:56,719 Speaker 1: I just I lose it because I just get a 908 00:47:56,719 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 1: lot of messages. And it's nice that they actually do 909 00:47:59,560 --> 00:48:02,080 Speaker 1: continue to DM me because it moves it back up 910 00:48:02,080 --> 00:48:04,239 Speaker 1: to the top. And sometimes I do want to talk 911 00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:06,560 Speaker 1: to them, but I just I can't find their user 912 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 1: name anymore, or I can't find their message. I would say, 913 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:13,279 Speaker 1: maybe like three if you send three d m s 914 00:48:13,360 --> 00:48:19,800 Speaker 1: with no response, then maybe stop, but yeah, like maybe 915 00:48:19,800 --> 00:48:22,040 Speaker 1: send a DM and then if they don't respond, like 916 00:48:22,120 --> 00:48:24,759 Speaker 1: respond to someone's respond to their story and then they 917 00:48:24,760 --> 00:48:27,439 Speaker 1: don't respond to that, then maybe do like one more 918 00:48:27,440 --> 00:48:30,200 Speaker 1: response to their story or like one more d M 919 00:48:30,360 --> 00:48:35,040 Speaker 1: and then after that just it's not gonna happen.

So send like a flirty message or 1022 00:54:41,120 --> 00:54:44,799 Speaker 1: funny message or anything other than just like, hey, what's up? 1023 00:54:45,320 --> 00:54:49,200 Speaker 1: And then find common grounds. So ask them about something 1024 00:54:49,200 --> 00:54:52,799 Speaker 1: that they're interested in, ask them a question, and then 1025 00:54:53,239 --> 00:54:55,759 Speaker 1: be a little bit persistent. Maybe send them a couple 1026 00:54:55,760 --> 00:54:58,640 Speaker 1: of messages because they didn't see the first one. Um, 1027 00:54:58,719 --> 00:55:01,000 Speaker 1: So don't be afraid to know, be persistent, but if 1028 00:55:01,000 --> 00:55:03,400 Speaker 1: they don't respond, don't get mad at them. And also 1029 00:55:03,800 --> 00:55:05,640 Speaker 1: just do what you want to do. If you're going 1030 00:55:05,680 --> 00:55:08,040 Speaker 1: to communicate the way you want to communicate, and if 1031 00:55:08,040 --> 00:55:09,959 Speaker 1: someone likes that, they like it. If they don't, they don't, 1032 00:55:10,040 --> 00:55:11,680 Speaker 1: So just move on to the next person. There's a 1033 00:55:11,719 --> 00:55:15,320 Speaker 1: lot of efficiency, amazing. Do you think people just copy 1034 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:17,439 Speaker 1: and paste and just slide them to thirty people hoping 1035 00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:21,560 Speaker 1: to get one bite. I'll get d M sometimes from 1036 00:55:21,560 --> 00:55:24,680 Speaker 1: like athletes and they just will send like an emoji 1037 00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:26,759 Speaker 1: and it's just like the thumbs up and I'm like, 1038 00:55:26,800 --> 00:55:30,160 Speaker 1: you definitely just sent that to like fifty other girls. 1039 00:55:31,000 --> 00:55:34,279 Speaker 1: What emoji? What what emoji? And then just like a 1040 00:55:34,280 --> 00:55:36,840 Speaker 1: hard eye or something. No, it's literally I got some 1041 00:55:36,960 --> 00:55:40,959 Speaker 1: guy sent me an emoji of pizza. Um. I got 1042 00:55:41,040 --> 00:55:44,239 Speaker 1: one where it was like a thumbs up, I got 1043 00:55:44,280 --> 00:55:48,000 Speaker 1: a smiley face, I got the fire flame And normally 1044 00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:50,000 Speaker 1: it's like hard eyes. But they will like that's like 1045 00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:52,440 Speaker 1: they're moved, like they'll only send like an emoji. I'm like, 1046 00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:55,960 Speaker 1: don't don't do that, like put them upward into it? 1047 00:55:56,040 --> 00:55:58,000 Speaker 1: Is that? So that is that kind of just because 1048 00:55:58,040 --> 00:56:01,120 Speaker 1: that guy or girl, whoever it is, person is relying 1049 00:56:01,160 --> 00:56:03,200 Speaker 1: on the fact that they probably have a big platform, 1050 00:56:03,280 --> 00:56:06,560 Speaker 1: they probably have a blue check mark, and they're just 1051 00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:09,600 Speaker 1: gonna you're you'll see it and then you'll respond and 1052 00:56:09,680 --> 00:56:11,640 Speaker 1: be like, oh hey, what's up. And that's just kind 1053 00:56:11,640 --> 00:56:17,200 Speaker 1: of their like this seems ever into it and they 1054 00:56:17,239 --> 00:56:20,480 Speaker 1: don't like like they actually really don't have to. Like 1055 00:56:20,719 --> 00:56:23,279 Speaker 1: you could probably send a girl like like a dog 1056 00:56:23,320 --> 00:56:26,600 Speaker 1: emoji and that would be enough. Like it. Honestly, sometimes 1057 00:56:26,600 --> 00:56:28,480 Speaker 1: for some people it doesn't matter what you sent them. 1058 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,120 Speaker 1: You can send them anything. What's the number one thing 1059 00:56:31,200 --> 00:56:33,000 Speaker 1: you get where it's just like, hey, you're one of 1060 00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:38,359 Speaker 1: everyone if you send me this. UM. I think the 1061 00:56:38,400 --> 00:56:41,160 Speaker 1: one that I dislike the most is when they say, hey, 1062 00:56:41,280 --> 00:56:43,319 Speaker 1: do you mind if I ask you a question. I 1063 00:56:43,400 --> 00:56:48,040 Speaker 1: know that's painful. I hate that because one of my 1064 00:56:48,239 --> 00:56:51,040 Speaker 1: guests and then they asked me, just asked me the question, 1065 00:56:51,080 --> 00:56:53,160 Speaker 1: like just like let's get to it, because then I 1066 00:56:53,200 --> 00:56:55,239 Speaker 1: have to respond and I have to respond again. Like 1067 00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:57,640 Speaker 1: I don't even want to open up the conversation because 1068 00:56:57,719 --> 00:57:00,000 Speaker 1: it's just it's not even like they're being respectful. It's 1069 00:57:00,000 --> 00:57:02,560 Speaker 1: almost like they're just like pandering. They just like give 1070 00:57:02,600 --> 00:57:05,160 Speaker 1: me attention, like I just want you to respond to 1071 00:57:05,160 --> 00:57:08,319 Speaker 1: me and like ask the question. There's a neediness and 1072 00:57:08,400 --> 00:57:11,839 Speaker 1: like a desperation laced into that energetically. That's just like 1073 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:14,120 Speaker 1: off putting. I'm like, oh god, no, I don't want 1074 00:57:14,120 --> 00:57:15,799 Speaker 1: anything to do with that. Like just come on here, 1075 00:57:15,840 --> 00:57:18,240 Speaker 1: ask me your question. I'll rip it right back. Yeah, 1076 00:57:18,600 --> 00:57:20,680 Speaker 1: there's a hesitancy that I'm like, if you do that, 1077 00:57:20,880 --> 00:57:30,360 Speaker 1: I'm I'm not going to even answer you at all. Okay, 1078 00:57:30,880 --> 00:57:33,280 Speaker 1: uh quick. I have to side with one or the other. 1079 00:57:33,520 --> 00:57:36,240 Speaker 1: Is it better to have a good photo like profile 1080 00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:38,320 Speaker 1: photo or a good caption? Which one is going to 1081 00:57:38,400 --> 00:57:43,200 Speaker 1: catch your attention? More good photo a good photo? So 1082 00:57:43,200 --> 00:57:46,560 Speaker 1: so note to all of our listeners male and female, 1083 00:57:46,640 --> 00:57:49,520 Speaker 1: have a great profile photo. What is a good photo? 1084 00:57:49,680 --> 00:57:52,440 Speaker 1: What constituted? What are the parameters that constitute a good 1085 00:57:52,480 --> 00:57:54,120 Speaker 1: photo that you're gonna be like, Oh, I'm gonna click 1086 00:57:54,160 --> 00:57:58,640 Speaker 1: on this person's profile, They're cute, this big? How can 1087 00:57:58,680 --> 00:58:01,120 Speaker 1: how can you tell? What do you gotta do? I 1088 00:58:01,160 --> 00:58:03,360 Speaker 1: think if it's just like of your face, I think 1089 00:58:03,400 --> 00:58:06,280 Speaker 1: it when people are like smiling or they look happy, 1090 00:58:06,680 --> 00:58:10,000 Speaker 1: I think that draws me in a lot more. Um, 1091 00:58:10,040 --> 00:58:12,160 Speaker 1: if you can't tell what the person looks like, then 1092 00:58:12,200 --> 00:58:14,520 Speaker 1: I'm also probably not going to like open up dam 1093 00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:16,280 Speaker 1: like I want to see what you look like first, 1094 00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:18,800 Speaker 1: just to know, like who I'm talking to. And especially 1095 00:58:18,800 --> 00:58:21,600 Speaker 1: because there are a lot of like catfish situations where 1096 00:58:21,800 --> 00:58:23,880 Speaker 1: you don't actually know what the person looks like, and 1097 00:58:23,920 --> 00:58:25,680 Speaker 1: so they have like a picture of like their dog 1098 00:58:26,240 --> 00:58:29,000 Speaker 1: or three people, or you don't know who it is, 1099 00:58:29,040 --> 00:58:32,200 Speaker 1: like it's hard to know, Like it's deer put like 1100 00:58:32,240 --> 00:58:34,360 Speaker 1: a face to their message. If you can actually see 1101 00:58:34,400 --> 00:58:36,480 Speaker 1: what they look like, got you, Yeah, I agree with that. 1102 00:58:36,560 --> 00:58:40,160 Speaker 1: Here's yours. You are lining up a putt. Yeah, well 1103 00:58:40,200 --> 00:58:42,320 Speaker 1: it's a golf page. Come on, I have to have 1104 00:58:42,400 --> 00:58:46,520 Speaker 1: a golf picture. How long have you had the same 1105 00:58:46,560 --> 00:58:51,360 Speaker 1: profile picture? I've had that one for probably three years, 1106 00:58:51,560 --> 00:58:55,080 Speaker 1: three or four years really, m The first thing I 1107 00:58:55,120 --> 00:58:57,480 Speaker 1: had was just like a picture of my face, and 1108 00:58:58,160 --> 00:59:00,120 Speaker 1: I wanted to change it because I wanted to make 1109 00:59:00,160 --> 00:59:02,240 Speaker 1: it more golfy because people were confused if it was 1110 00:59:02,240 --> 00:59:03,560 Speaker 1: a golf page or not. And so I was like, 1111 00:59:03,600 --> 00:59:06,680 Speaker 1: I need a picture. But I didn't almost want to 1112 00:59:06,760 --> 00:59:09,160 Speaker 1: change it because I felt like it was almost like 1113 00:59:09,160 --> 00:59:11,480 Speaker 1: a bad thing to do, Like are people gonna recognize 1114 00:59:11,480 --> 00:59:13,160 Speaker 1: what my page is anymore? If you like, change the 1115 00:59:13,240 --> 00:59:19,520 Speaker 1: profile picture, it doesn't matter, that's okay, okay, breakdown my 1116 00:59:19,640 --> 00:59:23,600 Speaker 1: profile picture for me. And if this, if this slid 1117 00:59:23,640 --> 00:59:25,400 Speaker 1: into your d M s, would you click on it 1118 00:59:25,440 --> 00:59:28,640 Speaker 1: based on just profile picture or no? You can look 1119 00:59:28,680 --> 00:59:35,840 Speaker 1: at your phone. Um see the hesitancy there's that's that's 1120 00:59:35,880 --> 00:59:39,440 Speaker 1: not a definite Oh I'd click that. So I'm messing 1121 00:59:39,480 --> 00:59:43,480 Speaker 1: this whole Instagram game up page, you know, only because 1122 00:59:43,840 --> 00:59:47,080 Speaker 1: it almost doesn't look like a real picture. It looks 1123 00:59:47,080 --> 00:59:49,000 Speaker 1: like a picture that you could take off of the 1124 00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:52,840 Speaker 1: internet and like photoshopping, like make it yours. And so 1125 00:59:52,960 --> 00:59:55,600 Speaker 1: I would be like, is that it does he actually 1126 00:59:55,640 --> 00:59:58,200 Speaker 1: look like that? It's not that you look bad, it's 1127 00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:00,960 Speaker 1: almost like it just looks too professional. It looks like 1128 01:00:00,960 --> 01:00:04,680 Speaker 1: a struction picture. True story, that's a that's just a 1129 01:00:04,680 --> 01:00:08,400 Speaker 1: photo taken with an iPhone, not touched at all, not edited, 1130 01:00:08,480 --> 01:00:13,480 Speaker 1: not nothing. That was something we can all strive to 1131 01:00:13,480 --> 01:00:18,000 Speaker 1: be as good looking as you. Oh yeah, whatever that is. 1132 01:00:18,080 --> 01:00:21,960 Speaker 1: I got my hair cut pictures like five professional cameras 1133 01:00:22,120 --> 01:00:25,360 Speaker 1: and you're just like, it's an iPhone, not even on 1134 01:00:25,440 --> 01:00:28,600 Speaker 1: portrait mode. That one was on portrait mode. So true 1135 01:00:28,600 --> 01:00:30,600 Speaker 1: story that photo. I had just got my hair cut 1136 01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,280 Speaker 1: and I had just got the new iPhone and there 1137 01:00:33,360 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 1: was a portrait mode and Jill, who's my style, She's like, 1138 01:00:37,480 --> 01:00:39,160 Speaker 1: let's take a photo of it, and she's like, turned 1139 01:00:39,200 --> 01:00:40,600 Speaker 1: to the side. I turned aside and it just had 1140 01:00:40,600 --> 01:00:44,360 Speaker 1: a black background in the salon um And that was 1141 01:00:44,400 --> 01:00:45,640 Speaker 1: the photo that came out. And I was like, Oh, 1142 01:00:45,680 --> 01:00:47,400 Speaker 1: I like that. That's dope. I'm gonna run with that. 1143 01:00:47,480 --> 01:00:49,520 Speaker 1: It's been on there for like a couple of years. No, 1144 01:00:49,640 --> 01:00:51,080 Speaker 1: it's not like I said, it's not that it's a 1145 01:00:51,120 --> 01:00:54,840 Speaker 1: bad photo. But if I'm like worried about someone catfishing me, 1146 01:00:54,920 --> 01:00:58,200 Speaker 1: I would probably be like this guy likes like two 1147 01:00:58,280 --> 01:01:03,040 Speaker 1: professional or like good picture instead of like it looks 1148 01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:05,200 Speaker 1: just like a normal person, like you don't look like 1149 01:01:05,240 --> 01:01:09,520 Speaker 1: a normal person there. But if having the blue checkmark, 1150 01:01:09,560 --> 01:01:12,760 Speaker 1: which I do, you would know that I'm not catfishing, 1151 01:01:13,600 --> 01:01:16,040 Speaker 1: so I shouldn't. Also, if you have a blue checkmark, 1152 01:01:16,080 --> 01:01:18,400 Speaker 1: you should have a good photo. You could said nothing, 1153 01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:20,720 Speaker 1: It could be a blank screen. But if you're saying 1154 01:01:20,760 --> 01:01:22,680 Speaker 1: to a girl's d M, she's gonna be about it, 1155 01:01:22,720 --> 01:01:25,120 Speaker 1: like you don't. You don't have to put any effort 1156 01:01:25,200 --> 01:01:28,880 Speaker 1: into it, is it? Why because of the blue checkmark? No, 1157 01:01:29,000 --> 01:01:33,360 Speaker 1: because you're attractive and like you you're you played played 1158 01:01:33,360 --> 01:01:35,960 Speaker 1: professionally and like you have like your together and like 1159 01:01:36,000 --> 01:01:38,600 Speaker 1: if you just look at your profile and you're like dogs, 1160 01:01:38,720 --> 01:01:41,160 Speaker 1: like you don't have to you literally don't have to 1161 01:01:41,200 --> 01:01:44,920 Speaker 1: do anything. How a thirst trap of you naked cooking? 1162 01:01:47,320 --> 01:01:52,600 Speaker 1: Come on? Like you know how to do anything? Like 1163 01:01:52,840 --> 01:01:58,680 Speaker 1: so easy. So I've never I've never used d m 1164 01:01:58,800 --> 01:02:01,160 Speaker 1: NG as a tool of day just because I have 1165 01:02:01,400 --> 01:02:06,880 Speaker 1: to um um question. I was going to ask you, Oh, 1166 01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:09,600 Speaker 1: in your d MS, how important is a blue check mark? 1167 01:02:09,840 --> 01:02:11,800 Speaker 1: If you see a blue check mark in your d MS, 1168 01:02:12,120 --> 01:02:15,680 Speaker 1: what percentage of time would you read that message? Probably 1169 01:02:16,760 --> 01:02:22,000 Speaker 1: I got of the time, but mostly because one with 1170 01:02:22,040 --> 01:02:25,960 Speaker 1: like the podcast and being in digital media, like it's 1171 01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:27,800 Speaker 1: just nice to connect with other people, and so I 1172 01:02:27,840 --> 01:02:30,400 Speaker 1: want to see why they're reaching out. Um. If they're 1173 01:02:30,400 --> 01:02:32,640 Speaker 1: reaching out and I feel like it's like their intentions 1174 01:02:32,640 --> 01:02:35,200 Speaker 1: aren't great, then I'm not going to respond. Just because 1175 01:02:35,240 --> 01:02:36,880 Speaker 1: they have a blue checkmark doesn't mean that I'm going 1176 01:02:36,920 --> 01:02:39,919 Speaker 1: to respond every single time. Um, but I will read 1177 01:02:39,960 --> 01:02:42,880 Speaker 1: the message like it definitely catches my eye. Um, but 1178 01:02:42,920 --> 01:02:44,840 Speaker 1: I'm not like, oh, he has a lot of followers. 1179 01:02:45,120 --> 01:02:46,959 Speaker 1: I'm definitely going to talk to him, Like you still 1180 01:02:46,960 --> 01:02:49,960 Speaker 1: have to send a good message or ask me a 1181 01:02:50,080 --> 01:02:53,640 Speaker 1: question if you do have a blue check mark. Yeah. Um, 1182 01:02:53,760 --> 01:02:56,800 Speaker 1: let's talk about the podcast. Are enjoying it. I love it. 1183 01:02:56,800 --> 01:02:59,880 Speaker 1: It's been great. It's it's been a challenge for sure 1184 01:03:00,000 --> 01:03:02,400 Speaker 1: because it's something like I've never done before. Um, but 1185 01:03:02,480 --> 01:03:04,280 Speaker 1: it's nice to just have a lot of fun talk 1186 01:03:04,320 --> 01:03:07,600 Speaker 1: about whatever we want to talk about. And it's it's fun. 1187 01:03:07,680 --> 01:03:10,800 Speaker 1: It's great. So it's an iheard podcast. It's called playing Around. 1188 01:03:11,400 --> 01:03:15,120 Speaker 1: Um have you would have been real quickly, like one 1189 01:03:15,240 --> 01:03:18,800 Speaker 1: positive experience that you've noticed from it and one negative 1190 01:03:18,840 --> 01:03:21,800 Speaker 1: experience that you that was kind of unforeseen coming in. 1191 01:03:22,920 --> 01:03:25,919 Speaker 1: Positive would be just getting my personality out there more 1192 01:03:26,040 --> 01:03:28,800 Speaker 1: people only know me mostly just from pictures that I 1193 01:03:28,840 --> 01:03:31,560 Speaker 1: post on Instagram, and so it's nice that I can 1194 01:03:31,680 --> 01:03:34,280 Speaker 1: show I have a really like goofy silly side that 1195 01:03:34,360 --> 01:03:37,440 Speaker 1: people really didn't know that I had that before. And 1196 01:03:37,480 --> 01:03:44,000 Speaker 1: then one negative is just creating a show that people enjoy. 1197 01:03:44,240 --> 01:03:47,840 Speaker 1: I think that sometimes when I've gone into like serious topics, 1198 01:03:48,200 --> 01:03:50,160 Speaker 1: people say that it's no fun and I don't want 1199 01:03:50,160 --> 01:03:51,960 Speaker 1: to listen to it. And then sometimes when I'm too silly, 1200 01:03:52,000 --> 01:03:54,800 Speaker 1: then they'll say, like there's no substance. And so usually, 1201 01:03:54,880 --> 01:03:57,360 Speaker 1: like on my Instagram, I can control the comments or 1202 01:03:57,400 --> 01:04:00,440 Speaker 1: I control like how people receive it. But with a podcast, 1203 01:04:00,480 --> 01:04:03,600 Speaker 1: it's it's hard, like it's your opinions, you know, and 1204 01:04:04,120 --> 01:04:06,080 Speaker 1: if they don't like you or like what you're saying, 1205 01:04:06,120 --> 01:04:08,240 Speaker 1: and it's like they don't really like you, and so 1206 01:04:08,280 --> 01:04:12,240 Speaker 1: it's hard to like create a show that everyone seems 1207 01:04:12,280 --> 01:04:16,240 Speaker 1: to enjoy and have fun listening to. And like, yeah, 1208 01:04:16,360 --> 01:04:18,640 Speaker 1: we try and and it's a dance and I mean, 1209 01:04:18,720 --> 01:04:22,120 Speaker 1: you're we're maybe nine months longer into it than you 1210 01:04:22,120 --> 01:04:25,320 Speaker 1: are on yours on playing around, um, but it's a 1211 01:04:25,400 --> 01:04:27,120 Speaker 1: dance and we we try and do this. The reason 1212 01:04:27,160 --> 01:04:29,160 Speaker 1: I got into this podcast was to try and add 1213 01:04:29,280 --> 01:04:31,760 Speaker 1: value to the listener. I was like, Okay, how can 1214 01:04:31,800 --> 01:04:35,000 Speaker 1: I positively impact people's lives? Um And one way that 1215 01:04:35,000 --> 01:04:38,160 Speaker 1: that Gavin is amazing on our show I miss you, buddy, 1216 01:04:38,160 --> 01:04:41,160 Speaker 1: miss Gav is that he adds a lot of entertainment. 1217 01:04:42,080 --> 01:04:44,760 Speaker 1: So you get value and entertainment because, like you said, 1218 01:04:44,800 --> 01:04:47,000 Speaker 1: sometimes that we do want to go into the high level, 1219 01:04:47,080 --> 01:04:49,800 Speaker 1: really thought provoking conversations, and in other days we want 1220 01:04:49,800 --> 01:04:52,040 Speaker 1: to have more conversations like today which is more about 1221 01:04:52,600 --> 01:04:54,520 Speaker 1: d m NG and the one we had about thirst traps, 1222 01:04:54,520 --> 01:04:56,280 Speaker 1: which are just kind of fun too, because sometimes the 1223 01:04:56,280 --> 01:04:59,680 Speaker 1: world just needs to be entertained as well. UM. But 1224 01:04:59,840 --> 01:05:01,919 Speaker 1: I think your podcast is great. I love that you 1225 01:05:02,040 --> 01:05:06,040 Speaker 1: are branching out and challenging yourself in a new medium, 1226 01:05:06,040 --> 01:05:10,440 Speaker 1: a new format. Um. And for people that that comment 1227 01:05:10,520 --> 01:05:13,720 Speaker 1: on it or are judgmental of it, podcasts are hard. 1228 01:05:14,040 --> 01:05:16,720 Speaker 1: Like you, You're you're literally opening yourself up, your thoughts, 1229 01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:20,600 Speaker 1: your opinions, and anybody out there listening can jab at 1230 01:05:20,640 --> 01:05:23,800 Speaker 1: it in any direction anyway they see different from the 1231 01:05:23,800 --> 01:05:26,000 Speaker 1: way they see the world, so it takes a lot 1232 01:05:26,000 --> 01:05:28,480 Speaker 1: of courage. I applaud you for your courage and for 1233 01:05:28,520 --> 01:05:31,800 Speaker 1: your bravery for coming out and starting a podcast. Um, 1234 01:05:31,840 --> 01:05:33,400 Speaker 1: and I hope you enjoy it because I think it's 1235 01:05:33,440 --> 01:05:36,200 Speaker 1: really impactful what you're doing. Thank you. Yeah, it's been 1236 01:05:36,240 --> 01:05:38,320 Speaker 1: a lot of fun and I was enjoy coming on 1237 01:05:38,360 --> 01:05:41,360 Speaker 1: this show and adding some entertainment and we get to 1238 01:05:41,360 --> 01:05:43,640 Speaker 1: talk about a lot of really fun things. So I 1239 01:05:43,960 --> 01:05:46,240 Speaker 1: can't wait to see you up your d M game. 1240 01:05:46,360 --> 01:05:50,000 Speaker 1: And I'm gonna laugh. Change your profile picture after this, 1241 01:05:50,480 --> 01:05:53,680 Speaker 1: right right, I'll put something smoothy, just me and my dog, 1242 01:05:53,840 --> 01:05:57,400 Speaker 1: like just something. Um, but you're you're so good. Everything 1243 01:05:57,400 --> 01:05:59,560 Speaker 1: you said was so right, Everything was so fresh, and 1244 01:06:00,000 --> 01:06:02,400 Speaker 1: you're so right. Um, it can be and I want 1245 01:06:02,400 --> 01:06:06,000 Speaker 1: to encourage our community the the d M format can 1246 01:06:06,040 --> 01:06:11,120 Speaker 1: be a way to meet somebody. Um. For sure, connections, relationships, marriages, 1247 01:06:11,920 --> 01:06:15,560 Speaker 1: families have been birthed out of DM. So um. Any 1248 01:06:15,680 --> 01:06:20,240 Speaker 1: last advice for our listeners? Robbie Hayes our last guest, 1249 01:06:20,280 --> 01:06:23,040 Speaker 1: he said, shoot your shot? He said, Kobe said, shoot 1250 01:06:23,160 --> 01:06:25,200 Speaker 1: your shot? What what last advice could you give our 1251 01:06:25,200 --> 01:06:28,440 Speaker 1: listeners that there may be a little timid or haven't 1252 01:06:28,520 --> 01:06:32,400 Speaker 1: even ever sent a d M? Any advice for our listeners? Yeah, 1253 01:06:32,440 --> 01:06:34,920 Speaker 1: I mean his advice is great. Definitely just go for it, 1254 01:06:34,960 --> 01:06:38,439 Speaker 1: but be yourself. Don't try to change who you are 1255 01:06:38,680 --> 01:06:41,520 Speaker 1: to get a response from that other person. And so 1256 01:06:41,560 --> 01:06:43,200 Speaker 1: if you're looking at the profile and you can't really 1257 01:06:43,200 --> 01:06:46,520 Speaker 1: find common ground, then maybe it's not worth it too, 1258 01:06:46,560 --> 01:06:49,880 Speaker 1: DM them. So always be yourself, be true to yourself, 1259 01:06:50,040 --> 01:06:52,520 Speaker 1: and send what you want to send, and don't get 1260 01:06:52,600 --> 01:06:54,440 Speaker 1: down on yourself. If you don't get a response, has 1261 01:06:54,480 --> 01:06:56,800 Speaker 1: nothing to do with you, has probably something to do 1262 01:06:56,840 --> 01:06:59,560 Speaker 1: with them. So if they don't respond, it's not a rejection, 1263 01:06:59,720 --> 01:07:02,040 Speaker 1: it's is It's just the way it is, and move 1264 01:07:02,080 --> 01:07:05,640 Speaker 1: on to next person. Literally, just delete it and move on. Okay, 1265 01:07:05,880 --> 01:07:08,560 Speaker 1: Page Rene, thank you so much. Um.
