Speaker 1: Second date update. Is there any way to do the
Speaker 1: math to figure out what type of person you're the
Speaker 1: most compatible with?
Speaker 2: That start with affectionate, multiply by heavy petting, subtract two blindfolds,
Speaker 2: keep one, divide with an overbearing.
Speaker 1: Mother, and oh, this is math.
Speaker 3: I get it.
Speaker 1: Now, You're going to die alone. Every time I try
Speaker 1: to calculate this, I keep coming up with the same answer.
Speaker 3: It's like time zero anytime you add the mother.
Speaker 1: Yeah, exactly, saying goodness, our listener, Justine found a different formula,
Speaker 1: and hopefully her results are better than mine, because apparently
Speaker 1: she's been single for a bit now. But Justine, how's
Speaker 1: the dating worlds going for you? Are you also reserving
Speaker 1: a burial plot for one?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, I could hear you. I can hear you
Speaker 3: laughing through the tears, So that's good. It's all right, Justine.
Speaker 3: But the funny thing is you're not alone in that.
Speaker 1: You know a lot of us are out there with you.
Speaker 1: But you said that you figured out some sort of
Speaker 1: mathematic formula to help you with your dating life. What
Speaker 1: was that.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's like this online test. You put in all
Speaker 4: the stuff that you care about, like your preferences and
Speaker 4: whatever for like finding a partner, and it supose we'll
Speaker 4: come back with like the percentage of men on dating
Speaker 4: apps who like fit those preferences.
Speaker 3: Oh really, so wait they also take the test thener, no,
Speaker 3: I think that it probably I'm guessing it's an algorithm
Speaker 3: that goes through and looks at their dating profiles. Is
Speaker 3: that how it works?
Speaker 4: Yeah? And so, like I started out like super basic.
Speaker 4: I was like, they have to have a job, they
Speaker 4: have to like not live at their parents' house, like
Speaker 4: have a car.
Speaker 1: Like, okay, well, standards are crazy on your end.
Speaker 4: I didn't put a single thing that was physical like
Speaker 4: height or anything, and it came back with less than
Speaker 4: one percent of men.
Speaker 1: A car, a job.
Speaker 4: Truly?
Speaker 3: Oh my okay, so you weren't feeling positive I'm guessing
Speaker 3: at that.
Speaker 5: Number or you know that's like very bleak.
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Anyway, I like after all of that, ended up meeting
Speaker 4: this guy named James, like just in a coffee shop.
Speaker 1: Oh didn't even need the dating apps.
Speaker 3: She ran into the one percent.
Speaker 1: Okay, that's funny, like the irony, how did that interaction happen?
Speaker 4: I literally was just sitting down and I was like
Speaker 4: scrolling and he comes up to me and he's like,
Speaker 4: are you accepting applications? And I'm like, oh, I'm sorry,
Speaker 4: I don't work here. Like I thought he was like
Speaker 4: applying at the coffee shop.
Speaker 1: Okay, were you wearing like an apron or something?
Speaker 5: No, I guess I just like looked like I was.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Or you're a manager. You know sometimes you walk into
Speaker 3: a restaurant or something you see a manager working.
Speaker 1: Good point, yeah, responds to him. When he asked about applications,
Speaker 1: I was like.
Speaker 5: Oh, sorry, I don't work here, and he was like, no, no,
Speaker 5: like to be your boyfriend.
Speaker 3: Oh oh, it was all mine. Okay did you like that?
Speaker 5: I mean I thought it was funny, but he like
Speaker 5: fully went along with it, and he was like, listen,
Speaker 5: I brought my resume. I've got like my history and
Speaker 5: experience and he legitimately like pulled out a piece of paper.
Speaker 3: Wait what he had a dating resume?
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 1: Oh, I have to know what was on it or
Speaker 1: is it a move that he pulls on women all
Speaker 1: the time. And he has twenty quote unquote dating resumes
Speaker 1: in his pocket to hand out whenever he.
Speaker 4: Sees someone cute kind of like the real world of
Speaker 4: getting a job.
Speaker 3: I mean, is she liked the resume?
Speaker 1: Who cares?
Speaker 3: How many other people like what was on it?
Speaker 4: You know, like basic stuff like he likes going to
Speaker 4: games and hiking.
Speaker 5: Like he was like, yeah, if you want to set
Speaker 5: up an interview, you can just like I called the
Speaker 5: number and I was like, why don't you.
Speaker 4: Just sit down now when I can interview you?
Speaker 1: Oh?
Speaker 3: Great response?
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it was really nice, like he turned out
Speaker 5: to be an awesome guy. He like offered to literally
Speaker 5: venmo me for the coffee that I'd already bought.
Speaker 1: Guy, you look poor here. You probably need this.
Speaker 3: What was the hardest boyfriend interview question that you asked him?
Speaker 4: Well, okay, so I've actually like done interviews at my
Speaker 4: real job. So I was like, okay, I'm just gonna
Speaker 4: pull some of these. And I was like, what's one
Speaker 4: thing you don't want me to know about you? Dude?
Speaker 3: He is so not prepared for the day.
Speaker 1: I would hate that question to be asked to me
Speaker 1: on a first day. But did he have an answer
Speaker 1: for you?
Speaker 5: He did, and it was like it was like ready made.
Speaker 5: It's like he expected it and he legitimately said, I
Speaker 5: pry when I watched the Matrix because I'm scared about
Speaker 5: the future.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, I don't think that was prepared.
Speaker 3: I feel like that was honest.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he was so scared. There's no way he just
Speaker 1: thought of that. How did you feel about that response?
Speaker 5: Honestly, it's he was really funny and it was really clever,
Speaker 5: and like because it was so quick.
Speaker 4: I was like, oh, no, you're serious.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not a red flag to you that he
Speaker 1: thinks the matrix is actually going to happen in the
Speaker 1: next few years.
Speaker 4: Have had so many worse answers. He said, yeah, that
Speaker 4: is so much better than anything.
Speaker 5: Okay, So anyway, at the end, he's like, today I
Speaker 5: get the job, and I was like, well, we probably
Speaker 5: should set up.
Speaker 4: Like a second interview.
Speaker 5: Oh.
Speaker 4: Then I definitely got the job, and we kind of
Speaker 4: like left it off there and it was funny and
Speaker 4: we laughed and then he like never called me again.
Speaker 4: What I like texted him made jokes about like, hey,
Speaker 4: we need to set up your second interview, and it
Speaker 4: was just silence.
Speaker 1: Nod you guys cancer anything or like hug was her
Speaker 1: physical viouce? Yeah, like a normal job interview.
Speaker 6: Yes, a job.
Speaker 3: It doesn't like a transition.
Speaker 1: How do you think I got hired?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I mean that is strange though, because he's the one
Speaker 3: that approached you. He's the one that did the line
Speaker 3: like why wouldn't he.
Speaker 1: But she's the one that took it to the next
Speaker 1: level that actually made him sit down for it. He
Speaker 1: probably thought it was a smooth line and was going
Speaker 1: to back away.
Speaker 5: So he literally was the one asking like, did I
Speaker 5: get the job?
Speaker 1: Yeah? He just wants the ego boost offer the company
Speaker 1: gives you.
Speaker 7: Isn't good.
Speaker 4: He's got to put in.
Speaker 3: Two weeks at his last job.
Speaker 1: Yeah, there's clearly a lot of options on the table.
Speaker 1: We're gonna find out for sure what happened when we
Speaker 1: come back and call James to do your second date update.
Speaker 1: Right after this second date update. Is there any setting
Speaker 1: more romantic than a job interview?
Speaker 3: It shouldn't be romantic.
Speaker 1: I don't know, Broke. You're dressed all nice, You're talking
Speaker 1: about your biggest strength and your greatest weaknesses. All of
Speaker 1: a sudden, what comes out of your pants? Oh god,
Speaker 1: a resume? Would you look at that? I just happened
Speaker 1: to have that on.
Speaker 3: Me, No wonder, it's so warm.
Speaker 1: That's actually kind of what happened to one of our
Speaker 1: listeners who met a guy recently. It wasn't an official
Speaker 1: job application, but some dudes saw at a coffee shop
Speaker 1: and asked, hey, are you taking boyfriend? Application? Is so
Speaker 1: smooth and he even had a resume in his pants.
Speaker 1: That's why it's.
Speaker 3: Even smooth pocket okay or who knows where it was.
Speaker 1: We don't know either way. It's kind of sus that
Speaker 1: he just carries that around waiting to whip out to
Speaker 1: any cute girl, if that's what he does. But we
Speaker 1: don't know that I have done this just for the day.
Speaker 3: He's putting some effort in.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it did work, and he got to sit down
Speaker 1: with her for a little interview slash mini first date.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: By the end he said he was definitely going to
Speaker 1: call her, and according to her, he definitely didn't. Ah,
Speaker 1: So I think we're all a little bit concerned that
Speaker 1: this little shtick he's doing is working too well, and
Speaker 1: maybe he's applying to multiple boyfriend positions all throughout the city.
Speaker 3: There are a lot of openings.
Speaker 7: Yeah, there's a lot of Yeah, Justine, if this turns
Speaker 7: out where he actually does this all the time and
Speaker 7: meets hundreds of women this way, How could we make
Speaker 7: him remember you?
Speaker 1: And have you stand like, how do we identify you?
Speaker 1: Or do you still even want to go out with him?
Speaker 4: At that point, I'm curious to hear what he has
Speaker 4: to say. But yeah, I was wearing a green romper,
Speaker 4: I have red hair and glasses.
Speaker 3: Okay, cute, Okay, Like you are the only one who
Speaker 3: sat him down and actually gave him like a legit interview.
Speaker 1: That's like, how could he remember you? Yeah? All right,
Speaker 1: so we'll see if he does remember you and what
Speaker 1: he asked to say? James's phone number?
Speaker 6: Right now?
Speaker 1: Here we go? Hello, Hey, we're looking for James.
Speaker 6: H Yeah this uh?
Speaker 1: Where we we are a radio show?
Speaker 6: Jeff?
Speaker 5: Sorry?
Speaker 1: What you first word?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Thanks for putting on all my flows in front of every.
Speaker 3: Day you know, if you were interviewing job.
Speaker 1: You're calling on behalf of our boss, Justine and apparently
Speaker 1: you applied for the position of her boyfriend role recently.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, yeah, do you remember that interview?
Speaker 3: Do you remember that interview?
Speaker 6: I mean I I remember a few of them.
Speaker 3: Yeah, right, I mean we expect.
Speaker 1: That we heard about the move that you pulled on
Speaker 1: our listener where you walked up to her and you
Speaker 1: like had a resume and asked if there was a
Speaker 1: boyfriend opening. Is that something that you've done a lot?
Speaker 4: Uh?
Speaker 6: Yeah, I've done that a good amount.
Speaker 1: Can I guess how many times? Is it two hundred times?
Speaker 6: I don't know about two hundred.
Speaker 3: I want to know the success rate? How many of
Speaker 3: those turn into a date?
Speaker 6: They do sometime. I've definitely met some interesting people, Okay.
Speaker 1: I am curious about that before we get to like
Speaker 1: Justine specifically, Like, what are some of the quirky things
Speaker 1: that you found out while trying this on other people? Before?
Speaker 6: I mean, there was this one girl who was an
Speaker 6: extreme coupon her Oh whoa I've never met before.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's interesting. They call them cheap skates, but yeah,
Speaker 1: go ahead.
Speaker 6: There was another girl who kept talking about alien abductions,
Speaker 6: so that was really interesting.
Speaker 3: Was that a turn on for you? I'm curious, like,
Speaker 3: it sounds like you're just meeting people to meet weird people.
Speaker 3: Are you actually looking for supting in this?
Speaker 6: You know, I don't really know what I'm looking for,
Speaker 6: to be honest. It's just it's proven to be a
Speaker 6: great way to meet people. Might people really responded.
Speaker 1: Maybe you're looking for a girl who wears a green
Speaker 1: romper to a coffee shop and has bright red hair,
Speaker 1: and it just tells you to sit down for the
Speaker 1: interview right away when you ask.
Speaker 6: Oh, yeah, thank god you told me what she was wearing,
Speaker 6: because that I know who you're talking about.
Speaker 3: I didn't ask you to sit down for the interview
Speaker 3: to the aliens.
Speaker 1: But so now you remember Justine?
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, I remember Justine. Here's the thing. I do
Speaker 6: this a good amount, and it's just, you know, it's
Speaker 6: all over the place the reactions that I get. But
Speaker 6: Justine's was like she was really quick with it, and
Speaker 6: she was she was different. I'll be honest. That kind
Speaker 6: of freaked me out, it did.
Speaker 3: I didn't know how to respond because she beat you
Speaker 3: at your own game essentially.
Speaker 6: Right, Yeah, yeah, pretty much, But.
Speaker 3: That seems like it'd be a turn on.
Speaker 1: Men don't like to be outsmart.
Speaker 3: I was just kidding, how do they ever meet anyone?
Speaker 1: How did you feel talking to Justine like that? Were
Speaker 1: you scared of her?
Speaker 6: You know? Yeah, honestly, I just I never take this
Speaker 6: thing seriously. It's just it's just sort of a gimmick
Speaker 6: and she for the first time, I felt like, Wow,
Speaker 6: this really could be something.
Speaker 3: You can't let your own insecurity stand in the way
Speaker 3: that you want someone who challenges you, who makes what's
Speaker 3: your hold up?
Speaker 6: Then I guess I'm just not used to that. I've
Speaker 6: never never had that happen for So.
Speaker 1: You finally found her and you're like, what do I do?
Speaker 3: That's why you're single?
Speaker 1: Man, Like you don't know how to move forward now
Speaker 1: that you realize you actually like her.
Speaker 6: Kind of like she might she might just be quicker
Speaker 6: than me.
Speaker 3: I don't know, I think she is.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, that's terrifying.
Speaker 3: No, I mean I appreciate the honesty.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you know what, if you think that's terrifying, just
Speaker 1: wait till you hear that she's actually been listening to
Speaker 1: this conversation the entire time. It is on the other
Speaker 1: line right now.
Speaker 6: Serious scary.
Speaker 1: Justine's trying not to scream.
Speaker 6: Hey Justine, come on, James.
Speaker 5: You were like I thought we had like a banter.
Speaker 6: We did we did? It freaked me out. I've never
Speaker 6: had a dance.
Speaker 4: Oh, you have every right to be like confident and
Speaker 4: witty and like the guy that I met could like
Speaker 4: play ball, like he could play chess, and I feel
Speaker 4: like you're just like afraid of that. But honestly, you
Speaker 4: you kept up in the conversation great like it was.
Speaker 4: I really enjoyed our conversation and I'm a little sad,
Speaker 4: but like now you're like backing out.
Speaker 6: I mean I'm not backing out. I'm just sort of
Speaker 6: like frozen, not not sure what to do.
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, this is positive.
Speaker 1: Now I need to dethaw you and get you back
Speaker 1: into action.
Speaker 3: What did I picture popping in a microwaves?
Speaker 1: Got to do? She liked your energy when you first met,
Speaker 1: so just bring that back and talk to her.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean I I can definitely do that.
Speaker 1: More confident than that though, Yeah, yeah.
Speaker 6: Justine, I would like that.
Speaker 1: Like if we get the still late it sounds kind
Speaker 1: of timid to me.
Speaker 4: Start, Can you try to say it a little more assertive?
Speaker 1: It's some flair on a James.
Speaker 6: Justine, let's do this, all right, let's do this.
Speaker 3: I mean I thought you guys were going to talk
Speaker 3: right now.
Speaker 6: I thought, well, not in front of you, dude.
Speaker 3: You can't ask for interviews. You can't apply to be
Speaker 3: people's boyfriends and then not.
Speaker 1: It's like you put on your application, but you have
Speaker 1: no show it to us.
Speaker 5: The thing I think you do.
Speaker 4: Have, riz, I think you're just afraid of messing up,
Speaker 4: and it keeps you from being bold.
Speaker 6: Like you did. You got in your head, I think. So.
Speaker 6: When there are no steaks, it's easy. But now that
Speaker 6: there's steaks, it's different.
Speaker 1: That's actually well, that's true. There will be steaks if
Speaker 1: we pay for them, because we will offer to send
Speaker 1: you to a steakhouse.
Speaker 3: Really, our gift cards cover this.
Speaker 1: And it's going to be an Apple.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I thought we were going to Sizzler, but.
Speaker 1: We'd like to send you guys out on one more
Speaker 1: date that we would pay for if you're not too afraid, James.
Speaker 6: Come on, James. Yeah that.
Speaker 1: I feel like if we didn't call and push you
Speaker 1: into this, then this date never even would have happened.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean we don't know that.
Speaker 1: Well, I feel okay because Justine, you're still okay with it.
Speaker 4: I am open to a second interview, but he honestly
Speaker 4: sounds like pretty different, a lot more timid. So we'll
Speaker 4: just have to see how a less rehearsed interview goes.
Speaker 3: Okay, was the first one just to show or is
Speaker 3: it really who he is.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you find out in a real world experience. I'm
Speaker 1: doing the dating math on this, just like Justine did originally,
Speaker 1: and I'm saying, this relationship is probably at a five
Speaker 1: percent chance right now, going to give it. Yeah, that's
Speaker 1: good unless he says something really smooth right now.
Speaker 6: I got nothing.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's a chance. Good lucky guys. It's broken Jeffrey
Speaker 1: in the morning. Brooking Jeffrey in the morning. Does anybody
Speaker 1: think they're actually going to meet up for a date
Speaker 1: or did this whole experience just lower his confidence even more?
Speaker 1: I think we broke him.
Speaker 3: I think he broke himself. I love this a guy
Speaker 3: who's saying I'm handing out boyfriend applications but doesn't actually
Speaker 3: want a relationship. Yeah, I'm like, why why.
Speaker 1: He's literally all talk And there's a lot of people
Speaker 1: that go into something with just their first move planned
Speaker 1: and that's all that you have rights exactly.
Speaker 3: But it's such an elaborate first move, it's so good,
Speaker 3: Like why not be in? I hope they go out again?
Speaker 1: Yeah, why do? I feel like there's going to be
Speaker 1: a whole lot more copycat resume guys out there now?
Speaker 6: Though?
Speaker 1: All trying to apply for the open boyfriend position. Luckily
Speaker 1: for you ladies, I don't know how to make a resume. Actually, Brooke,
Speaker 1: there's a lot of text coming in at seven eighty
Speaker 1: five nights too, asking if you have any open positions.
Speaker 7: Awful her husband and Roy right now.
Speaker 1: We'll keep you posted on that, but yes.
Speaker 3: Very much, Sonny are great over here.
