<v Speaker 1>Cortes with us. Yeah, welcome. I don't have I don't

0:01:32.080 --> 0:01:34.240
<v Speaker 1>have a work bench and Dmitri, how about if I

0:01:34.280 --> 0:01:35.840
<v Speaker 1>just put the pencil behind my does that look like

0:01:37.360 --> 0:01:40.039
<v Speaker 1>let's do like, let's do two to three quarters? That

0:01:40.040 --> 0:01:42.000
<v Speaker 1>that works for me? Okay, And as far as anybody

0:01:42.040 --> 0:01:43.880
<v Speaker 1>can tell from now, you have a tool belt on,

0:01:44.000 --> 0:01:46.880
<v Speaker 1>we just do that's and that's all I'm wearing from

0:01:46.880 --> 0:01:48.880
<v Speaker 1>the way. So it's just a tool belt. And I

0:01:48.920 --> 0:01:51.240
<v Speaker 1>just don't have the accolades that you have in your

0:01:51.280 --> 0:01:54.080
<v Speaker 1>background to sign jerseys, to sign football, I don't have

0:01:54.120 --> 0:01:56.040
<v Speaker 1>that stuff. So I had to rent this. You know

0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:58.960
<v Speaker 1>what's great is none of that's mine. It's everybody else's signature.

0:01:59.000 --> 0:02:01.800
<v Speaker 1>It's not mine, So it's any words. Indeed, like I

0:02:01.880 --> 0:02:03.720
<v Speaker 1>when you popped on there, I was just like, that's

0:02:03.800 --> 0:02:05.720
<v Speaker 1>kind of what I want my home office to look like.

0:02:05.960 --> 0:02:08.320
<v Speaker 1>There you like a book with my face on it?

0:02:08.400 --> 0:02:10.680
<v Speaker 1>Like I see your book right there? Hey, I should

0:02:10.680 --> 0:02:13.000
<v Speaker 1>have saved it that that's my new book. But when

0:02:13.320 --> 0:02:16.919
<v Speaker 1>I initially started promoting the book, the publishers had kept

0:02:16.919 --> 0:02:18.560
<v Speaker 1>telling me like you needed why don't you have the

0:02:18.600 --> 0:02:21.080
<v Speaker 1>book and in the background of anything book because you

0:02:21.120 --> 0:02:24.240
<v Speaker 1>haven't sent me any So I literally took my older

0:02:24.280 --> 0:02:28.760
<v Speaker 1>son's NBA two K xbox game, printed out a piece

0:02:28.800 --> 0:02:31.000
<v Speaker 1>of paper that had the book ever and taped it

0:02:31.080 --> 0:02:33.040
<v Speaker 1>to it and would sit it back there and just

0:02:33.080 --> 0:02:35.079
<v Speaker 1>tell Pep it was the book. Yeah, awesome. Well dude,

0:02:35.080 --> 0:02:37.120
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna get more into that book. But Um, I

0:02:37.160 --> 0:02:39.160
<v Speaker 1>want to get to your opinion. So Dan's coming on

0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:45.320
<v Speaker 1>as a respected gentleman UM who has some insight for us.

0:02:45.320 --> 0:02:47.079
<v Speaker 1>We had a Dan last week. We had a hot

0:02:47.120 --> 0:02:51.000
<v Speaker 1>topic on the how men thinks showing and uh Dmitri

0:02:51.240 --> 0:02:54.919
<v Speaker 1>and uh Rick weren't with us. Ryan was with us,

0:02:55.040 --> 0:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>but producer Tory, our lovely producer, Um opened up about

0:02:59.840 --> 0:03:04.440
<v Speaker 1>her dating life and ask the question about should people

0:03:04.480 --> 0:03:07.639
<v Speaker 1>hook up on the first date? Yeah, should they hook

0:03:07.720 --> 0:03:09.639
<v Speaker 1>up on the first date? Is that frowned upon from

0:03:09.840 --> 0:03:12.280
<v Speaker 1>a guy's standpoint if the woman does that? Or is

0:03:12.280 --> 0:03:15.320
<v Speaker 1>it me you mean you're being a little churchgoer here?

0:03:15.440 --> 0:03:18.360
<v Speaker 1>You mean hook up as in have sex, go all

0:03:18.400 --> 0:03:21.919
<v Speaker 1>the way. Yeah, yeah, I guess I guess we should

0:03:21.919 --> 0:03:26.600
<v Speaker 1>clarify what um so the hell men think community has

0:03:26.639 --> 0:03:29.440
<v Speaker 1>just exploded. There's a wild debate going on right now.

0:03:29.720 --> 0:03:34.080
<v Speaker 1>Some people say yes, some people say no. Some people say, um,

0:03:34.240 --> 0:03:37.840
<v Speaker 1>they that yes, they absolutely judge somebody for going that

0:03:38.000 --> 0:03:40.000
<v Speaker 1>far on the first date. But I want to get

0:03:40.040 --> 0:03:44.120
<v Speaker 1>your guys opinions on this um As a gentleman going

0:03:44.120 --> 0:03:46.600
<v Speaker 1>out on a date, first date with the lady, Dan

0:03:46.600 --> 0:03:49.080
<v Speaker 1>will lead with you, what are you looking for on

0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:53.200
<v Speaker 1>a first date? And would you even pursue? Be honest? Brother,

0:03:53.320 --> 0:03:57.800
<v Speaker 1>be honest with you, would you even pursue physical conto

0:03:57.840 --> 0:04:02.600
<v Speaker 1>physical intimacy on the first date? Okay, being honest. If

0:04:02.640 --> 0:04:05.640
<v Speaker 1>you're a guy and you're attracted to someone, obviously that

0:04:05.800 --> 0:04:09.440
<v Speaker 1>is in your mind somewhere. It's it's not like you go, hey,

0:04:09.520 --> 0:04:12.080
<v Speaker 1>I'm really attracted to as a person. I hope it

0:04:12.120 --> 0:04:16.400
<v Speaker 1>doesn't go any further now. I I also think though,

0:04:16.760 --> 0:04:19.680
<v Speaker 1>the first thing I look for on any first date

0:04:19.760 --> 0:04:22.159
<v Speaker 1>is if there's any sort of compatibility. Now, if there's

0:04:22.160 --> 0:04:25.480
<v Speaker 1>no compatibility, then you don't that doesn't cross your mind.

0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:28.240
<v Speaker 1>But if you if there's some sort of compatibility. There,

0:04:28.320 --> 0:04:31.720
<v Speaker 1>you're getting along, she's laughing at my dumb jokes. I

0:04:31.760 --> 0:04:33.960
<v Speaker 1>think this is great. Then obviously that will start to

0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:37.960
<v Speaker 1>any guy's mind. It's gonna cross your mind. I mean,

0:04:38.040 --> 0:04:40.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, and you guys know it crosses your mind

0:04:40.040 --> 0:04:43.039
<v Speaker 1>to meet. You don't say no, you know it does. No, No,

0:04:43.120 --> 0:04:45.160
<v Speaker 1>it crosses your mind for sure. But what you're not

0:04:45.279 --> 0:04:47.520
<v Speaker 1>You're going up to the pool, but you're not jumping in.

0:04:47.800 --> 0:04:51.160
<v Speaker 1>The question is would you judge a woman not? It's

0:04:51.160 --> 0:04:53.400
<v Speaker 1>not does a guy I want to have sex? Yes?

0:04:53.480 --> 0:04:56.520
<v Speaker 1>He does, So I'll say when I was younger, I

0:04:56.640 --> 0:04:59.280
<v Speaker 1>used to think that was something I wasn't interested. I

0:04:59.320 --> 0:05:01.800
<v Speaker 1>would think if a girl wanted to, you know, was

0:05:01.839 --> 0:05:04.279
<v Speaker 1>having sex on the first date with me, then clearly

0:05:04.279 --> 0:05:06.560
<v Speaker 1>she would have sex with somebody else on the first date.

0:05:06.680 --> 0:05:09.280
<v Speaker 1>So when I was younger, I would think that that

0:05:09.320 --> 0:05:12.160
<v Speaker 1>bothered me. But I've I've grown older, and I've matured,

0:05:12.200 --> 0:05:14.960
<v Speaker 1>and I've realized that, you know, but sured as much

0:05:14.960 --> 0:05:19.680
<v Speaker 1>as I probably can, and I've realized that there's so

0:05:19.760 --> 0:05:23.240
<v Speaker 1>much more to relationships than that. So to judge somebody

0:05:23.240 --> 0:05:25.680
<v Speaker 1>on feeling their way through life just doesn't make sense.

0:05:26.040 --> 0:05:28.839
<v Speaker 1>So I actually have a lot of friends or quite

0:05:28.839 --> 0:05:30.520
<v Speaker 1>a group of friends that have that did it on

0:05:30.560 --> 0:05:33.160
<v Speaker 1>the first date and are happily married with kids for

0:05:33.160 --> 0:05:36.159
<v Speaker 1>for for a long time. So the question is what

0:05:36.279 --> 0:05:39.240
<v Speaker 1>I judge them? No, in the past, I may have,

0:05:39.320 --> 0:05:42.040
<v Speaker 1>but I don't think that should be a deal break. Okay, wait,

0:05:42.080 --> 0:05:43.880
<v Speaker 1>so the question was do you judge the woman not?

0:05:44.040 --> 0:05:47.560
<v Speaker 1>Does it cross my mind both both? Like if you're

0:05:47.560 --> 0:05:49.720
<v Speaker 1>going out on a date, like, let's be honest here,

0:05:49.760 --> 0:05:53.560
<v Speaker 1>So if I'm going on on a date, like you're

0:05:53.680 --> 0:05:56.000
<v Speaker 1>you're wanting to be physical with this person, that's probably

0:05:56.000 --> 0:05:57.520
<v Speaker 1>why you're going on a date with them. You're not

0:05:57.520 --> 0:05:59.960
<v Speaker 1>going on on a date with somebody you're not physically attract.

0:06:00.640 --> 0:06:04.760
<v Speaker 1>But are you trying to lead the night in that direction?

0:06:05.240 --> 0:06:09.120
<v Speaker 1>Or are you are you respectfully keeping a physical distance

0:06:09.160 --> 0:06:12.520
<v Speaker 1>in like honoring getting to know somebody, wanting to move

0:06:12.520 --> 0:06:14.800
<v Speaker 1>it in the physical element, like wanting to have sex

0:06:14.800 --> 0:06:17.680
<v Speaker 1>with this person, but down the road tonight is just

0:06:17.720 --> 0:06:19.800
<v Speaker 1>about seeing if our chemistry is on and if I

0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:22.080
<v Speaker 1>really like you, Well, I don't think I don't think

0:06:22.080 --> 0:06:25.320
<v Speaker 1>you should try and lead a date whatsoever. I think

0:06:25.360 --> 0:06:28.480
<v Speaker 1>you just gotta see where it goes. You shouldn't go

0:06:28.520 --> 0:06:31.520
<v Speaker 1>into it with a predetermined notion of, Hey, I'm really

0:06:31.560 --> 0:06:33.560
<v Speaker 1>attracted to her. I'm gonna start, I'm gonna throw a

0:06:33.640 --> 0:06:36.120
<v Speaker 1>few feelers out there. I'm gonna say this and see

0:06:36.120 --> 0:06:39.080
<v Speaker 1>if she responds in a certain way or not. I'm

0:06:39.120 --> 0:06:42.040
<v Speaker 1>more of the like mind of, hey, let's just see

0:06:41.880 --> 0:06:44.880
<v Speaker 1>where the night takes us and and if you get along.

0:06:44.960 --> 0:06:48.080
<v Speaker 1>But I'm also with Dmitri. I think it's when I

0:06:48.120 --> 0:06:50.560
<v Speaker 1>was younger, I agreed the same thing. It was, Oh jeesus,

0:06:50.600 --> 0:06:52.560
<v Speaker 1>she's gonna sleep with me on the first day. Who

0:06:52.560 --> 0:06:54.599
<v Speaker 1>else has she slept with on the first date? But

0:06:54.720 --> 0:06:57.680
<v Speaker 1>then the same thing as you get older and I

0:06:57.720 --> 0:06:59.839
<v Speaker 1>don't know about wiser, but you just get older and

0:06:59.839 --> 0:07:02.039
<v Speaker 1>so have been around a little bit, you, you know,

0:07:02.160 --> 0:07:04.080
<v Speaker 1>before it gets to that point, if there's some sort

0:07:04.080 --> 0:07:06.760
<v Speaker 1>of connection with this person. I appreciate that you kind

0:07:06.760 --> 0:07:09.160
<v Speaker 1>of made a similarity between us, Dan, but I guarantee

0:07:09.200 --> 0:07:10.800
<v Speaker 1>there's women that would have sex with you on the

0:07:10.840 --> 0:07:12.400
<v Speaker 1>first date that would not have sex with me on

0:07:12.440 --> 0:07:15.880
<v Speaker 1>the first day. So appreciate question. I have a question,

0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:18.880
<v Speaker 1>were you guys really thinking about that when you were younger?

0:07:19.360 --> 0:07:21.800
<v Speaker 1>Like m I wonder what she's going to think about

0:07:21.880 --> 0:07:25.040
<v Speaker 1>and I'm gonna do this, and you know, what's she

0:07:25.120 --> 0:07:28.040
<v Speaker 1>going to think? It wasn't I'm going to do this,

0:07:28.080 --> 0:07:30.600
<v Speaker 1>and what's gonna think? My my? In my perfect world.

0:07:30.640 --> 0:07:32.480
<v Speaker 1>When I was younger, I was a bit of a

0:07:32.600 --> 0:07:35.200
<v Speaker 1>romantic and I wanted to like if I was if

0:07:35.240 --> 0:07:37.520
<v Speaker 1>it was somebody that I was interested in having relationship with,

0:07:37.920 --> 0:07:39.720
<v Speaker 1>my preference would have been to not do it on

0:07:39.760 --> 0:07:42.800
<v Speaker 1>the first date. But as I said, I've realized that

0:07:43.240 --> 0:07:45.000
<v Speaker 1>there's a lot when you're younger. There's a lot of

0:07:45.000 --> 0:07:48.200
<v Speaker 1>stuff that importance that you put on certain things that

0:07:48.320 --> 0:07:50.560
<v Speaker 1>really in life that it's not as big a deal

0:07:50.560 --> 0:07:53.360
<v Speaker 1>as you may be thinking. And that's your preference, not

0:07:53.440 --> 0:07:58.200
<v Speaker 1>what you could have been taught maybe by your parents.

0:07:57.720 --> 0:08:02.760
<v Speaker 1>Just got deep that got yeah, that was good, Uh,

0:08:03.160 --> 0:08:04.600
<v Speaker 1>not what I saw. I don't think that I was

0:08:04.640 --> 0:08:07.000
<v Speaker 1>taught with my parents, but from my parents, like don't

0:08:07.080 --> 0:08:09.040
<v Speaker 1>do something on a first date. I think I was

0:08:09.080 --> 0:08:12.280
<v Speaker 1>taught to be a gentleman um so maybe that factors

0:08:12.280 --> 0:08:17.240
<v Speaker 1>into it somewhere. But yeah about your parents rick to

0:08:17.360 --> 0:08:20.600
<v Speaker 1>like respect and like obviously you're talking, I think what

0:08:20.640 --> 0:08:25.800
<v Speaker 1>were you taught like first night date ethics? No, definitely

0:08:25.800 --> 0:08:28.440
<v Speaker 1>not taught first night date date ethics. But I think

0:08:28.520 --> 0:08:31.760
<v Speaker 1>going into with what I was taught was be respectful,

0:08:31.840 --> 0:08:34.880
<v Speaker 1>be nice, you know, treat the woman very you know,

0:08:34.920 --> 0:08:38.760
<v Speaker 1>like a woman, and then you know, you know, then

0:08:38.880 --> 0:08:41.840
<v Speaker 1>figure out what's going on in terms of what's the

0:08:41.880 --> 0:08:45.520
<v Speaker 1>next move, right, I don't think I really I think

0:08:46.080 --> 0:08:48.599
<v Speaker 1>personally I would always try to depending on how the

0:08:48.679 --> 0:08:50.559
<v Speaker 1>date goes. I agree with Dan, you know, you just

0:08:50.640 --> 0:08:52.400
<v Speaker 1>kind of start putting your feelers out there and then

0:08:52.480 --> 0:08:54.840
<v Speaker 1>is it going good? And you know what's the next step?

0:08:54.960 --> 0:08:57.200
<v Speaker 1>You kissed? You, you know, you go to the bar

0:08:57.400 --> 0:09:00.640
<v Speaker 1>the next time or or whatever, but and then see

0:09:00.640 --> 0:09:03.839
<v Speaker 1>where that leads us. But um, I think going in

0:09:04.000 --> 0:09:05.760
<v Speaker 1>that was something the way that I was brought up,

0:09:06.120 --> 0:09:08.720
<v Speaker 1>and those were the things that that was telling me

0:09:08.800 --> 0:09:12.080
<v Speaker 1>inside to not go have sex the first time. That

0:09:12.120 --> 0:09:16.360
<v Speaker 1>makes sense. Yeah, So Dr Harrianna, you guys remember dr V.

0:09:18.600 --> 0:09:21.480
<v Speaker 1>DRV is wonderful And she commented on this post because

0:09:21.480 --> 0:09:22.880
<v Speaker 1>we had this, we shared this on her how Many

0:09:22.880 --> 0:09:27.080
<v Speaker 1>Things podcast community, and she said, if the chase is

0:09:27.120 --> 0:09:31.680
<v Speaker 1>after a lasting, loving, intimate relationship, then sleeping together soon

0:09:31.880 --> 0:09:34.880
<v Speaker 1>after meeting doesn't make a big difference. But if the

0:09:35.000 --> 0:09:38.000
<v Speaker 1>chase is after sex, then yes, of course it will

0:09:38.000 --> 0:09:43.440
<v Speaker 1>make a difference because the goal has been met. So, UM,

0:09:43.760 --> 0:09:46.480
<v Speaker 1>I agree with what Dmitri said, is I if I'm

0:09:46.520 --> 0:09:48.960
<v Speaker 1>going on a date, I'm going after the chase of

0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:54.880
<v Speaker 1>pursuing something longer term with this person. Um is how

0:09:54.920 --> 0:09:57.360
<v Speaker 1>I would look at it. So I actually, like Demetri said,

0:09:57.400 --> 0:10:01.400
<v Speaker 1>I actually I prefer it to be like maybe more

0:10:01.400 --> 0:10:03.520
<v Speaker 1>of a traditional guy and that I don't think I

0:10:03.520 --> 0:10:06.440
<v Speaker 1>would force it or even try to steer it that

0:10:06.520 --> 0:10:10.800
<v Speaker 1>way on night one. Um, just because in my own mindset,

0:10:10.840 --> 0:10:12.960
<v Speaker 1>to be truthfully honest, in my own mindset, I'm like,

0:10:13.280 --> 0:10:14.840
<v Speaker 1>just what you guys said, like how many other guys

0:10:14.840 --> 0:10:17.240
<v Speaker 1>have she slept with on date one? Or is this

0:10:17.520 --> 0:10:19.480
<v Speaker 1>is this the type of woman that I want to

0:10:19.600 --> 0:10:23.160
<v Speaker 1>end up with. I have a question. Let's say we're all,

0:10:23.280 --> 0:10:25.200
<v Speaker 1>you know, because we're all kind of on the same page.

0:10:25.400 --> 0:10:27.280
<v Speaker 1>What if you get to that point at the end

0:10:27.320 --> 0:10:29.640
<v Speaker 1>of the night and it's going around well and she

0:10:29.720 --> 0:10:32.400
<v Speaker 1>wants to take it. Would you, as a guy then

0:10:32.440 --> 0:10:35.480
<v Speaker 1>go no, no, no no, no, I don't feel real good

0:10:39.600 --> 0:10:44.880
<v Speaker 1>head first. Would you would you tell the lottery that

0:10:44.960 --> 0:10:48.800
<v Speaker 1>you have enough money? No? You would? Are you guys

0:10:48.800 --> 0:10:51.240
<v Speaker 1>being serious? I'll say, you really like this girl, would

0:10:51.280 --> 0:10:56.760
<v Speaker 1>you would you actually go for it? Or would you um?

0:10:56.880 --> 0:11:01.000
<v Speaker 1>Would you out of respect and to maybe like with

0:11:01.120 --> 0:11:03.320
<v Speaker 1>your values or like be like, I don't want to

0:11:03.360 --> 0:11:06.920
<v Speaker 1>go there yet, you know, like you having a conversation

0:11:06.920 --> 0:11:09.800
<v Speaker 1>where they're during dinner or when you're meeting of how

0:11:09.800 --> 0:11:12.040
<v Speaker 1>many times have you had tex? Is that is that

0:11:12.160 --> 0:11:17.600
<v Speaker 1>a differentiator? You're like, Hey, you know, look, I think

0:11:17.600 --> 0:11:19.760
<v Speaker 1>if that's coming up, if you're having that conversation on

0:11:19.800 --> 0:11:23.000
<v Speaker 1>the first date, I'm out. I'm like, okay, I don't

0:11:23.000 --> 0:11:28.400
<v Speaker 1>want to be question. But then again, okay, let's be honest.

0:11:28.440 --> 0:11:30.480
<v Speaker 1>It says she's this gorgeous girl and you're and she

0:11:30.520 --> 0:11:33.960
<v Speaker 1>says to you know, every guy is gonna go really

0:11:35.240 --> 0:11:40.000
<v Speaker 1>it means double yeah, yeah, exactly, gonna Let's add here's

0:11:40.000 --> 0:11:42.720
<v Speaker 1>another on a show or where I heard it. But

0:11:42.720 --> 0:11:44.800
<v Speaker 1>it's like, if a girl tells you how many guys

0:11:44.880 --> 0:11:48.800
<v Speaker 1>she's been with you, multiply it by three. And for

0:11:48.920 --> 0:11:50.679
<v Speaker 1>a guy, if he tells you how many girls he's

0:11:50.679 --> 0:11:54.000
<v Speaker 1>been with you, divide it by three. You guys ever

0:11:54.040 --> 0:11:57.559
<v Speaker 1>heard that? Yeah, I could. I could see that I've

0:11:57.600 --> 0:11:59.560
<v Speaker 1>done what I've done. What Dan is saying you know

0:11:59.600 --> 0:12:01.480
<v Speaker 1>you could a zero to mine, but you added to

0:12:01.480 --> 0:12:06.240
<v Speaker 1>the beginning, not to the end. Okay, So UM, last

0:12:06.280 --> 0:12:08.040
<v Speaker 1>touch point, last touch point on this because I want

0:12:08.040 --> 0:12:10.520
<v Speaker 1>to move on. Um, because we actually have another guest

0:12:10.559 --> 0:12:14.200
<v Speaker 1>coming in that's gonna help Rick with appending issue. Um.

0:12:14.240 --> 0:12:18.920
<v Speaker 1>But what do you think my lasting point on this is? Um?

0:12:18.960 --> 0:12:22.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't believe I would pursue it truthfully on night

0:12:22.120 --> 0:12:27.200
<v Speaker 1>one on a first date, UM, because my goal with

0:12:27.280 --> 0:12:31.040
<v Speaker 1>the date is not such to just have sex with

0:12:31.080 --> 0:12:33.600
<v Speaker 1>this person. My goal with the date would be to

0:12:33.640 --> 0:12:36.720
<v Speaker 1>discover the person, be curious about the person and about

0:12:36.760 --> 0:12:40.800
<v Speaker 1>what the possibility of of a partnership with this person

0:12:40.840 --> 0:12:44.280
<v Speaker 1>could be. And so respectfully, I would keep a physical

0:12:44.320 --> 0:12:46.520
<v Speaker 1>distance and not try and lead it that way. And

0:12:46.559 --> 0:12:50.280
<v Speaker 1>that's just my personal preference. Um. Even though the person

0:12:50.360 --> 0:12:52.680
<v Speaker 1>might be insanely attractive and of course I want to

0:12:52.679 --> 0:12:54.880
<v Speaker 1>get there, I think I would probably pump the brakes

0:12:54.880 --> 0:13:00.280
<v Speaker 1>on that for a couple of days. You guys, Yeah,

0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:04.400
<v Speaker 1>it's like you're idiot. Hey, Look, if I was a woman,

0:13:04.600 --> 0:13:08.160
<v Speaker 1>I date you, That's that's the kind of guide one

0:13:08.160 --> 0:13:12.679
<v Speaker 1>a date. UM. I just know I agree with you

0:13:12.720 --> 0:13:15.160
<v Speaker 1>to a certain extent, but I'm also like a hundred

0:13:15.240 --> 0:13:17.280
<v Speaker 1>years old. So I look at it this way. I

0:13:17.320 --> 0:13:19.040
<v Speaker 1>don't know if I got tomorrow coming, but I got

0:13:19.040 --> 0:13:22.920
<v Speaker 1>today right now. So what you said, I think it

0:13:23.000 --> 0:13:25.920
<v Speaker 1>has changed with the age too. Yeah, yeah, but definitely.

0:13:26.360 --> 0:13:29.000
<v Speaker 1>But to that point, see, I wouldn't pursue it. If

0:13:29.000 --> 0:13:31.280
<v Speaker 1>there was a connection and we felt that way, then

0:13:31.280 --> 0:13:33.320
<v Speaker 1>I would probably I would probably do it. I mean,

0:13:33.360 --> 0:13:35.720
<v Speaker 1>look around, like I said before, they're they're bigger things

0:13:35.760 --> 0:13:37.920
<v Speaker 1>to to face. Life on the world around us is

0:13:37.960 --> 0:13:39.480
<v Speaker 1>burning right now. I don't think having sex on the

0:13:39.480 --> 0:13:41.520
<v Speaker 1>first date is the worst thing that someone can do anymore.

0:13:41.720 --> 0:13:44.280
<v Speaker 1>If you have that connection, fine, and if you find

0:13:44.280 --> 0:13:46.520
<v Speaker 1>out later that I was a mistake and that's not

0:13:46.960 --> 0:13:48.360
<v Speaker 1>somebody that you want to spend the rest of your

0:13:48.360 --> 0:13:50.760
<v Speaker 1>life with, then you adapt from that. But to go

0:13:50.800 --> 0:13:52.920
<v Speaker 1>in there saying this is this is a deal breaker.

0:13:53.040 --> 0:13:55.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm not doing it because it's only the first time.

0:13:55.880 --> 0:13:59.720
<v Speaker 1>This bigger fish tofright, I have one Look, but do

0:13:59.760 --> 0:14:02.400
<v Speaker 1>you think this is I mean, this is how many things?

0:14:02.440 --> 0:14:04.000
<v Speaker 1>But do you think it makes that big of a

0:14:04.000 --> 0:14:10.360
<v Speaker 1>difference to the woman if you were to back off

0:14:10.400 --> 0:14:12.080
<v Speaker 1>and in her mind, if she's thinking I want to

0:14:12.080 --> 0:14:15.240
<v Speaker 1>have sex with him, and you're like, no, is she

0:14:15.400 --> 0:14:17.520
<v Speaker 1>thinking that okay, I respect him? Or is she going

0:14:17.559 --> 0:14:20.760
<v Speaker 1>what's wrong with him? Um? Producer Tori, Tori, can you

0:14:20.800 --> 0:14:23.520
<v Speaker 1>answer that question? So say, say you're on a date

0:14:23.560 --> 0:14:26.120
<v Speaker 1>with a guy to Tori and you're really vibing with

0:14:26.160 --> 0:14:28.040
<v Speaker 1>this guy, You're really into him, and you're like, dang,

0:14:28.080 --> 0:14:30.320
<v Speaker 1>I usually don't do this, but like, I'm really attracted

0:14:30.320 --> 0:14:32.480
<v Speaker 1>to this guy and you want to take it physical

0:14:32.640 --> 0:14:36.240
<v Speaker 1>that evening and he says, I'm just not comfortable with this.

0:14:36.360 --> 0:14:39.800
<v Speaker 1>I actually want to I love that you're attracted to me,

0:14:39.840 --> 0:14:41.720
<v Speaker 1>but like, I think we need a little more time

0:14:41.800 --> 0:14:43.720
<v Speaker 1>till we get to that stage. What are your thoughts

0:14:43.800 --> 0:14:48.280
<v Speaker 1>on this guy? Then? That's so hot? Really? Yeah, that's sexy.

0:14:48.840 --> 0:14:50.760
<v Speaker 1>Why is that? Because you gotta work for it and

0:14:50.800 --> 0:14:53.680
<v Speaker 1>it's like you got some some backbone in you and

0:14:53.680 --> 0:14:56.360
<v Speaker 1>you're not just like the guy that you just think

0:14:56.600 --> 0:14:59.920
<v Speaker 1>is the cookie cutter guy. Now what if what if

0:15:00.000 --> 0:15:02.600
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't make a difference. If he's doing that because

0:15:02.680 --> 0:15:06.320
<v Speaker 1>he truly believes that and he wants to cherish a relationship,

0:15:06.360 --> 0:15:08.160
<v Speaker 1>or is he doing that because that's kind of part

0:15:08.160 --> 0:15:09.840
<v Speaker 1>of his game and he knows it's going to be

0:15:09.880 --> 0:15:13.840
<v Speaker 1>real sexy to you. It doesn't matter. It's still sexy

0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:17.640
<v Speaker 1>unless it's like he's not attracted to you, then you

0:15:17.680 --> 0:15:21.320
<v Speaker 1>could kind of maybe go there. But I think it's hot.

0:15:22.520 --> 0:15:26.920
<v Speaker 1>I know I have friends who have who are this

0:15:26.960 --> 0:15:28.400
<v Speaker 1>is when I was younger too, This is like ten

0:15:28.480 --> 0:15:31.240
<v Speaker 1>years ago, who were just like when you were twelve,

0:15:32.960 --> 0:15:36.360
<v Speaker 1>who are just party as hell, and and they wanted

0:15:36.400 --> 0:15:38.520
<v Speaker 1>to get out of that kind of thing of like

0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:42.360
<v Speaker 1>pursuing sex on the first night where they would intentionally

0:15:42.920 --> 0:15:48.280
<v Speaker 1>not shave their bits so that they were like, oh,

0:15:48.320 --> 0:15:50.560
<v Speaker 1>I'm too embarrassed ab what was going on down there,

0:15:50.640 --> 0:15:53.720
<v Speaker 1>So again I just can't have sex tonight. So that

0:15:53.800 --> 0:15:57.280
<v Speaker 1>was there. That was there, Like governor, to stop having

0:15:57.280 --> 0:16:01.800
<v Speaker 1>sex on the first night, let me just say go ahead.

0:16:02.440 --> 0:16:04.760
<v Speaker 1>I was just gonna say with then if if she asked,

0:16:04.760 --> 0:16:08.320
<v Speaker 1>why not, would they just be honest and say, because

0:16:08.320 --> 0:16:15.480
<v Speaker 1>I chose not to shave my bits. I don't even

0:16:15.480 --> 0:16:18.280
<v Speaker 1>know if it worked, funny enough. That's that's the that's

0:16:18.280 --> 0:16:25.000
<v Speaker 1>the original name of my autobiography called Unshaven Bits True.

0:16:25.000 --> 0:16:30.200
<v Speaker 1>By the way, well, Tori, we tried our best there. Uh. Also,

0:16:30.440 --> 0:16:32.400
<v Speaker 1>I also don't think you get any less horny or

0:16:32.400 --> 0:16:35.600
<v Speaker 1>the older you get. Let's just I totally agree with that. Yeah,

0:16:35.600 --> 0:16:40.800
<v Speaker 1>I mean like I don't care if years still for Yeah,

0:16:42.040 --> 0:16:44.000
<v Speaker 1>And the truth is to you and asked the first

0:16:44.000 --> 0:16:46.240
<v Speaker 1>time you said, does it even cross your mind? As

0:16:46.280 --> 0:16:48.360
<v Speaker 1>soon as you said that, my wife had just walked

0:16:48.360 --> 0:16:50.840
<v Speaker 1>out of the kitchen with the coffee, and it crossed

0:16:50.880 --> 0:16:53.760
<v Speaker 1>my mind. I have one more question I want to

0:16:53.800 --> 0:16:56.080
<v Speaker 1>ask you guys, So, if you're not looking for sex

0:16:56.080 --> 0:16:58.920
<v Speaker 1>in the first date, or maybe you are but doesn't

0:16:58.920 --> 0:17:05.360
<v Speaker 1>work out, in is the societally acceptable night to have

0:17:05.440 --> 0:17:10.840
<v Speaker 1>sex where there's no judgment, no connotations like how Saturday? Saturday?

0:17:12.760 --> 0:17:17.239
<v Speaker 1>How many? How many dating? Dating somebody? Um, according to

0:17:17.280 --> 0:17:20.760
<v Speaker 1>your world's in perspective, is like an agreeable number to

0:17:20.920 --> 0:17:26.000
<v Speaker 1>like to consummate physically, you know, to have sexual relations?

0:17:26.880 --> 0:17:30.800
<v Speaker 1>Three three, It just seems like the right number. I

0:17:30.840 --> 0:17:35.040
<v Speaker 1>don't even do do people even still think about that? Like,

0:17:35.119 --> 0:17:38.000
<v Speaker 1>if you don't have sex on the first date, then

0:17:38.040 --> 0:17:40.800
<v Speaker 1>are you gonna say, all right, well, it's like I'm

0:17:40.800 --> 0:17:43.800
<v Speaker 1>gonna stop drinking. Okay, how many days I don't know,

0:17:43.840 --> 0:17:45.320
<v Speaker 1>But if you get to day two, that's like I

0:17:45.320 --> 0:17:47.199
<v Speaker 1>can do day three. So when do you finally go

0:17:47.320 --> 0:17:50.720
<v Speaker 1>like I need to at least wait. I think once

0:17:50.760 --> 0:17:53.280
<v Speaker 1>the first date is gone and you don't have sex,

0:17:53.720 --> 0:17:55.480
<v Speaker 1>then you just let the chips fall where they may.

0:17:55.640 --> 0:17:58.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean it's like, is it do you then go? Okay,

0:17:58.680 --> 0:18:01.600
<v Speaker 1>I've gotta wait until number eight, number five because do

0:18:01.640 --> 0:18:05.359
<v Speaker 1>you honestly think so much is going to occur and

0:18:05.480 --> 0:18:12.359
<v Speaker 1>those other three dates that will change something or I

0:18:12.400 --> 0:18:15.080
<v Speaker 1>don't know. I think if there's an attraction there and

0:18:15.119 --> 0:18:17.280
<v Speaker 1>you've already given it one shot with the first date,

0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:21.639
<v Speaker 1>then I think once you get past that first or

0:18:21.720 --> 0:18:24.800
<v Speaker 1>second then it's like, then, yes, what's the difference? What

0:18:24.800 --> 0:18:27.399
<v Speaker 1>what exactly are you counting to? And on the flip side,

0:18:27.720 --> 0:18:29.360
<v Speaker 1>you could get to a point where like, oh, it's

0:18:29.400 --> 0:18:31.119
<v Speaker 1>stay four and we haven't done it yet, and then

0:18:31.160 --> 0:18:33.159
<v Speaker 1>you start adding pressure onto it and then it's not

0:18:33.200 --> 0:18:35.200
<v Speaker 1>going to be you know, as fun or as natural

0:18:35.240 --> 0:18:38.840
<v Speaker 1>as it would be just to just to do it. Rick,

0:18:38.880 --> 0:18:41.280
<v Speaker 1>what are you thinking? Brother? I think the second date

0:18:41.359 --> 0:18:43.719
<v Speaker 1>is pretty legit. I agree with Dan though. I mean

0:18:43.960 --> 0:18:46.000
<v Speaker 1>it's like, who's really counting? I mean, if you do

0:18:46.320 --> 0:18:49.440
<v Speaker 1>the first date, cool, you set the groundwork. Now she's

0:18:49.480 --> 0:18:54.240
<v Speaker 1>after you again, and it's like, what you know, if

0:18:54.240 --> 0:18:56.520
<v Speaker 1>things are kicking off the right way, then to go ahead,

0:18:56.520 --> 0:18:58.800
<v Speaker 1>for go for it. I see what you guys are saying,

0:18:58.800 --> 0:19:02.080
<v Speaker 1>because there's also a component of like, if you guys

0:19:02.119 --> 0:19:04.679
<v Speaker 1>are vibing with each other, obviously there's enough of a

0:19:04.760 --> 0:19:07.199
<v Speaker 1>vibe that you're on a second date. And if you're

0:19:07.280 --> 0:19:11.120
<v Speaker 1>vibing with each other, you kind of know, like, hey,

0:19:11.119 --> 0:19:13.359
<v Speaker 1>whether it's date three or date six, like this is

0:19:13.359 --> 0:19:16.879
<v Speaker 1>probably gonna happen. Yeah, right, So doesn't matter, like you

0:19:16.920 --> 0:19:19.520
<v Speaker 1>were saying, demti doesn't matter if it's two, or doesn't

0:19:19.520 --> 0:19:23.400
<v Speaker 1>matter if it's four. In in the scope of the relationship,

0:19:23.680 --> 0:19:27.679
<v Speaker 1>probably it doesn't matter anymore other than just telling the

0:19:27.720 --> 0:19:29.760
<v Speaker 1>story of what night you hooked up on, whether it

0:19:29.840 --> 0:19:31.960
<v Speaker 1>was two or four. And who keep who are you

0:19:32.040 --> 0:19:34.199
<v Speaker 1>keeping a score for? The fact of the matter is,

0:19:34.240 --> 0:19:37.320
<v Speaker 1>if Date one bothers you, once you get to day two,

0:19:37.400 --> 0:19:39.439
<v Speaker 1>you've already agreed that you like each other enough to

0:19:39.440 --> 0:19:41.760
<v Speaker 1>go out again, So then don't who you keep a

0:19:41.760 --> 0:19:45.080
<v Speaker 1>score for? Just let the chips fall. Date one bothers

0:19:45.080 --> 0:19:48.159
<v Speaker 1>me truthfully Date one, That's what I mean though, But

0:19:48.240 --> 0:19:50.400
<v Speaker 1>once you're past that, you've agreed that you that there's

0:19:50.400 --> 0:19:54.120
<v Speaker 1>something more there, so just let it on day two, three, four,

0:19:54.160 --> 0:19:57.760
<v Speaker 1>or five six? What if you go grab coffee? What

0:19:57.840 --> 0:20:00.400
<v Speaker 1>if you go grab coffee and then go for that,

0:20:01.280 --> 0:20:06.960
<v Speaker 1>don't do it in a coffee shop. Now you're now

0:20:07.000 --> 0:20:10.919
<v Speaker 1>you're defining what the date is. So maybe maybe the

0:20:10.960 --> 0:20:13.679
<v Speaker 1>first date is let's grab coffee, finish the coffee, and

0:20:13.680 --> 0:20:16.720
<v Speaker 1>then I'll say tomorrow, and then okay, let's get thank you,

0:20:17.920 --> 0:20:21.280
<v Speaker 1>and then you're going to dinner that night. Yeah, it's

0:20:21.280 --> 0:20:24.440
<v Speaker 1>a Kenny ban your situation. Soup isn't a meal. That's

0:20:24.440 --> 0:20:26.600
<v Speaker 1>not a date. We had soup. That doesn't count his

0:20:26.720 --> 0:20:31.240
<v Speaker 1>date too. Um. Does anybody have any like horror stories

0:20:31.240 --> 0:20:35.120
<v Speaker 1>of first dates from the past they want to share? No,

0:20:35.160 --> 0:20:39.520
<v Speaker 1>I'm perfect. I mean that's pretty good. No. My my

0:20:39.600 --> 0:20:42.680
<v Speaker 1>current wife, I mentioned, we've been together since our first date.

0:20:43.400 --> 0:20:46.680
<v Speaker 1>We were like and haven't separated since our first date.

0:20:47.040 --> 0:20:50.280
<v Speaker 1>That's awesome. So, Um, but that was we She lived

0:20:50.280 --> 0:20:51.959
<v Speaker 1>in New York, I live in l A. We had

0:20:52.000 --> 0:20:54.280
<v Speaker 1>spoken over the phone for hours at a time for

0:20:54.320 --> 0:20:55.600
<v Speaker 1>a couple of months prior to it, and then I

0:20:55.640 --> 0:20:57.800
<v Speaker 1>went to New York for work and I said, Hey,

0:20:57.840 --> 0:21:01.879
<v Speaker 1>let's finally meet in person, and UM went out and

0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:04.240
<v Speaker 1>and uh went out on the date that night, and

0:21:04.280 --> 0:21:06.760
<v Speaker 1>then you know, a few months later she ended up

0:21:06.760 --> 0:21:09.080
<v Speaker 1>moving quitting her job and moving to l A. Could

0:21:09.119 --> 0:21:12.560
<v Speaker 1>you tell on that first date, like, I'm really into

0:21:12.600 --> 0:21:17.199
<v Speaker 1>this this girl, like this is this is different ours?

0:21:17.800 --> 0:21:19.760
<v Speaker 1>Our relationship was weird. By the end of the night,

0:21:19.800 --> 0:21:23.439
<v Speaker 1>we were at the bar on the rooftop of this

0:21:23.480 --> 0:21:25.520
<v Speaker 1>hotel I was staying, and we were referring to each

0:21:25.560 --> 0:21:28.359
<v Speaker 1>other as our husband and wife. Yeah, it was it

0:21:28.440 --> 0:21:32.399
<v Speaker 1>was two people we were meeting, like, and it was

0:21:32.520 --> 0:21:36.680
<v Speaker 1>just we knew we both knew right then, so that uh,

0:21:36.720 --> 0:21:38.720
<v Speaker 1>and it was the first time I had experienced anything

0:21:38.720 --> 0:21:42.399
<v Speaker 1>like that, and so yeah, I kind of knew right away.

0:21:42.400 --> 0:21:48.800
<v Speaker 1>It was just an immediate kind of connection that, yeah, exactly.

0:21:48.920 --> 0:21:52.720
<v Speaker 1>And I think truthfully though, too, what really helped us

0:21:52.840 --> 0:21:58.120
<v Speaker 1>was those phone conversations long distance, getting to know each

0:21:58.160 --> 0:22:01.440
<v Speaker 1>other without you know, seeing her pretty face in front

0:22:01.440 --> 0:22:03.639
<v Speaker 1>of me. It was just getting to know that person

0:22:03.680 --> 0:22:05.959
<v Speaker 1>and sharing things with each other. So then when we

0:22:05.960 --> 0:22:07.760
<v Speaker 1>finally did meet each other, it was almost like all

0:22:07.760 --> 0:22:10.760
<v Speaker 1>that groundwork had been laid, you know, those first few dates,

0:22:10.880 --> 0:22:13.920
<v Speaker 1>phone dates out of the way, whatever. It's so when

0:22:13.920 --> 0:22:15.439
<v Speaker 1>we did finally meet in person, it was like we

0:22:15.480 --> 0:22:19.120
<v Speaker 1>already knew each other and knew so much about each other.

0:22:19.880 --> 0:22:22.160
<v Speaker 1>M M, yeah, I get what you're saying there. Yeah,

0:22:22.640 --> 0:22:25.000
<v Speaker 1>I remember. Wait, Brooks, have you had a bad first date?

0:22:25.080 --> 0:22:28.159
<v Speaker 1>You brought that up. You must have one. UM. To

0:22:28.240 --> 0:22:32.640
<v Speaker 1>be honest, I never dated much, truthfully, like I I've

0:22:32.640 --> 0:22:35.280
<v Speaker 1>shared it on this show. From from twenty to thirty.

0:22:35.400 --> 0:22:39.280
<v Speaker 1>I was full. I was full weighted career pursuit of

0:22:39.320 --> 0:22:42.320
<v Speaker 1>hockey UM that governed every decision in the course of

0:22:42.359 --> 0:22:44.679
<v Speaker 1>my day. And I had no balance, no counterbalance of

0:22:44.720 --> 0:22:49.280
<v Speaker 1>social life. So I've dated very little. UM. But the

0:22:49.359 --> 0:22:51.960
<v Speaker 1>dates I did go on, I just remember this like

0:22:52.480 --> 0:22:58.800
<v Speaker 1>I remember it being so f and painful. I would

0:22:58.800 --> 0:23:01.320
<v Speaker 1>get on a date and five minutes into the date

0:23:01.800 --> 0:23:05.879
<v Speaker 1>I didn't like the girl, you know, and I'm like, oh,

0:23:05.920 --> 0:23:11.040
<v Speaker 1>dear God, like all right, grinding here for another hour

0:23:11.200 --> 0:23:14.240
<v Speaker 1>and forty five minutes or something when all I want

0:23:14.240 --> 0:23:17.199
<v Speaker 1>to be home is resting because we play tomorrow. And

0:23:17.240 --> 0:23:19.639
<v Speaker 1>now I'm grinding away on this date with this girl

0:23:20.280 --> 0:23:22.679
<v Speaker 1>and it's just not going anywhere. I know I'm not

0:23:22.720 --> 0:23:25.320
<v Speaker 1>gonna marry her. Just let me eat a steak and

0:23:25.480 --> 0:23:27.760
<v Speaker 1>you know, kind of just have a nice conversation. Did

0:23:27.840 --> 0:23:31.439
<v Speaker 1>you ever create a situation to get yourself out of that? No? No,

0:23:31.560 --> 0:23:33.680
<v Speaker 1>I did not. I have not. Just the other day,

0:23:33.720 --> 0:23:36.120
<v Speaker 1>one of the best friends in l A said that

0:23:36.280 --> 0:23:40.360
<v Speaker 1>her when she goes on a date, twice, she's had

0:23:40.400 --> 0:23:43.520
<v Speaker 1>her roommate call him because she'll they have a code

0:23:43.520 --> 0:23:49.119
<v Speaker 1>where he she texts him and that means call and

0:23:49.160 --> 0:23:53.400
<v Speaker 1>then she's like oh, or he texts He's like, oh,

0:23:53.560 --> 0:23:55.639
<v Speaker 1>something just happened with my dog, and then he calls

0:23:55.640 --> 0:23:58.440
<v Speaker 1>her right away and on speaker phone. She puts it

0:23:58.480 --> 0:24:01.720
<v Speaker 1>on speaker phone and he's like, hey, I'll let you

0:24:01.760 --> 0:24:03.480
<v Speaker 1>know that your dog is thrown up. Like what do

0:24:03.560 --> 0:24:05.760
<v Speaker 1>I do about this? Right in the kitchen, it's like yellow,

0:24:05.960 --> 0:24:09.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what I do. And then she's like ah,

0:24:09.080 --> 0:24:12.119
<v Speaker 1>because then it's on speaker phone, right, it's not like, yeah,

0:24:12.520 --> 0:24:18.720
<v Speaker 1>it's legit according to anymore. Yeah, yeah, I just I

0:24:18.760 --> 0:24:20.800
<v Speaker 1>didn't say her name, so I haven't fully outed her.

0:24:21.359 --> 0:24:25.240
<v Speaker 1>But she does have a dog. Um, but I've never

0:24:25.280 --> 0:24:28.080
<v Speaker 1>pulled a stunt like that. Um. I think I would

0:24:28.119 --> 0:24:32.560
<v Speaker 1>just grind it through and then go home. Yeah. Um yeah,

0:24:32.560 --> 0:24:34.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I can't. I can't remember me and

0:24:34.600 --> 0:24:37.880
<v Speaker 1>I didn't go on many dates. I think too. If

0:24:37.920 --> 0:24:41.240
<v Speaker 1>you're if you're going creating a backup, like backup plan

0:24:41.359 --> 0:24:43.399
<v Speaker 1>like that before you even go on the date, you

0:24:43.440 --> 0:24:46.840
<v Speaker 1>probably shouldn't go on the date to begin this. Yeah, exactly,

0:24:46.920 --> 0:24:49.520
<v Speaker 1>we're gonna come up with something that elaborate. And god forbid.

0:24:49.600 --> 0:24:51.280
<v Speaker 1>She's out one night and the guy she's on the

0:24:51.400 --> 0:24:53.679
<v Speaker 1>date with goes, well, actually I'm a veterinarian. It's like

0:24:53.680 --> 0:24:57.639
<v Speaker 1>the episode of is there a Marine Biologist? Actually there's yellow,

0:24:57.720 --> 0:25:01.639
<v Speaker 1>that's just bio. It's fine, that fine, he probably ate

0:25:01.720 --> 0:25:04.200
<v Speaker 1>some grass. Let's enjoy the rest of our meal. I'm

0:25:04.240 --> 0:25:08.600
<v Speaker 1>happy to treat him. I'm more interested in the brainstorming

0:25:08.640 --> 0:25:11.439
<v Speaker 1>session that's like, okay, now what if what colors? What

0:25:11.520 --> 0:25:16.480
<v Speaker 1>colors the bile? Let's go with yellow. Yeah. Producer Tori,

0:25:16.680 --> 0:25:20.600
<v Speaker 1>do you have any like horrific first date stories. I'm

0:25:20.680 --> 0:25:23.800
<v Speaker 1>trying to think I don't have like horrific, but I've

0:25:23.800 --> 0:25:26.560
<v Speaker 1>definitely had the dates where I'm like, please don't touch me,

0:25:26.680 --> 0:25:30.600
<v Speaker 1>please don't hold my hand. Um, oh, I do have one.

0:25:30.960 --> 0:25:34.560
<v Speaker 1>So I was I've talked about it on another podcast before,

0:25:34.680 --> 0:25:38.080
<v Speaker 1>but I went on a date with someone and we

0:25:38.119 --> 0:25:39.919
<v Speaker 1>had like stayed in touch through college. He was at

0:25:39.960 --> 0:25:43.520
<v Speaker 1>Stanford and I was here and he was like, hey,

0:25:43.560 --> 0:25:45.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm like finally going to be in town. We had

0:25:45.040 --> 0:25:46.440
<v Speaker 1>like talked for like kind of on and off for

0:25:46.520 --> 0:25:48.840
<v Speaker 1>a long time. He's like, let me, can I take

0:25:48.920 --> 0:25:51.800
<v Speaker 1>you to breakfast lunched in or whatever you want? I

0:25:51.840 --> 0:25:53.800
<v Speaker 1>was like, yeah, sure. It was before Father's Day, so

0:25:53.800 --> 0:25:55.480
<v Speaker 1>I was like, I'll do let's do like a breakfast

0:25:55.720 --> 0:25:59.639
<v Speaker 1>or later lunch. And we get to the table and

0:26:00.080 --> 0:26:04.240
<v Speaker 1>we order food and like I got a latte, he

0:26:04.359 --> 0:26:08.160
<v Speaker 1>just had water. And then we went to pay. And

0:26:08.440 --> 0:26:11.399
<v Speaker 1>I am always the girl who like will offer to

0:26:11.560 --> 0:26:16.520
<v Speaker 1>like lay a card down. I feel like that's the

0:26:16.520 --> 0:26:18.760
<v Speaker 1>thing to do, which maybe you guys can comment on that.

0:26:19.320 --> 0:26:21.520
<v Speaker 1>Is it attractive? Does it feel like I'm making it

0:26:21.560 --> 0:26:24.960
<v Speaker 1>a friend zone moon move? I don't know, um, but

0:26:25.000 --> 0:26:26.639
<v Speaker 1>I laid my car down and then he just split

0:26:26.680 --> 0:26:29.560
<v Speaker 1>it with me and I ordered or he ordered a

0:26:29.600 --> 0:26:31.760
<v Speaker 1>latte and I had water, So technically I paid more

0:26:32.800 --> 0:26:35.920
<v Speaker 1>for him because he had a drink and I didn't.

0:26:36.800 --> 0:26:39.000
<v Speaker 1>What did that do for you? Were you? Like you asked?

0:26:39.840 --> 0:26:43.159
<v Speaker 1>I was like, is this a date or is this not?

0:26:43.440 --> 0:26:45.919
<v Speaker 1>But like we had like spent like a whole walk,

0:26:46.200 --> 0:26:48.720
<v Speaker 1>like we spent an hour prior. Then we got lunch,

0:26:50.080 --> 0:26:53.000
<v Speaker 1>and I was just like, yikes, I don't know what

0:26:53.040 --> 0:26:55.720
<v Speaker 1>this is. This is confusing. And then I but the

0:26:55.760 --> 0:26:57.280
<v Speaker 1>more I talked to people, they were like, you friend

0:26:57.359 --> 0:27:00.479
<v Speaker 1>zoned him by, or maybe he just thought you were

0:27:00.480 --> 0:27:03.160
<v Speaker 1>an independent woman and wanted to be an independent woman.

0:27:03.160 --> 0:27:04.960
<v Speaker 1>So he's like, I'm going to let her. If she

0:27:05.000 --> 0:27:07.760
<v Speaker 1>wants paid for half, I'll let her pay for half.

0:27:07.800 --> 0:27:11.960
<v Speaker 1>Maybe he felt he might insult you if he made

0:27:12.000 --> 0:27:17.040
<v Speaker 1>you do that, because what happened, But what happened after that?

0:27:17.520 --> 0:27:20.720
<v Speaker 1>Did he ask you out again? To point? Did he

0:27:20.720 --> 0:27:22.640
<v Speaker 1>ask you out again? Like we walked like I think

0:27:22.640 --> 0:27:24.639
<v Speaker 1>he walked into my car, like we didn't kiss or anything.

0:27:24.720 --> 0:27:26.720
<v Speaker 1>So I was like, I guess we're just friends. Like

0:27:26.760 --> 0:27:29.720
<v Speaker 1>I'm so confused, and not saying that him not paying

0:27:29.760 --> 0:27:32.000
<v Speaker 1>for a bill, it just it just made me more.

0:27:32.160 --> 0:27:34.359
<v Speaker 1>I get it. The guy doesn't buy you water, you're

0:27:34.400 --> 0:27:37.000
<v Speaker 1>not hey, I get it. We just call me your

0:27:37.040 --> 0:27:41.160
<v Speaker 1>sugar mama. Here I am buying your lawte's ten bucks

0:27:41.160 --> 0:27:46.160
<v Speaker 1>in l A. You know. So it's like, but in fairness,

0:27:46.160 --> 0:27:51.920
<v Speaker 1>the waters are seven, so okay, so gent's uh first

0:27:52.000 --> 0:27:55.440
<v Speaker 1>date or do guys pick up the tab? Do you split?

0:27:55.600 --> 0:27:58.600
<v Speaker 1>Is it the modern era where it's a split, right,

0:27:58.680 --> 0:28:00.760
<v Speaker 1>Like what happens in the first date? Who's paying for that?

0:28:01.640 --> 0:28:05.840
<v Speaker 1>Guys always do? I always and even like like I'll

0:28:05.840 --> 0:28:08.600
<v Speaker 1>even go to have go to Starbucks with my wife

0:28:08.600 --> 0:28:10.479
<v Speaker 1>and she'll be like, here, I'll treat it. Just for

0:28:10.520 --> 0:28:12.919
<v Speaker 1>some reason, I don't know it bothers me. I'm like,

0:28:13.000 --> 0:28:16.320
<v Speaker 1>just let me pay, like just I don't. I don't

0:28:16.320 --> 0:28:18.280
<v Speaker 1>know what it is. But first date, for sure, you

0:28:18.359 --> 0:28:23.960
<v Speaker 1>have to even if it's bad, even if you just yeah,

0:28:24.000 --> 0:28:25.760
<v Speaker 1>you have to pay even if it's bad. Maybe then

0:28:25.800 --> 0:28:28.080
<v Speaker 1>that's another way to just be like, hey, at least

0:28:28.080 --> 0:28:30.639
<v Speaker 1>I bought your dinner. It's fine. You know, it just

0:28:30.680 --> 0:28:33.359
<v Speaker 1>didn't work out for me. I agree. I think that

0:28:33.520 --> 0:28:36.320
<v Speaker 1>the one offer from the from the woman is nice.

0:28:36.320 --> 0:28:38.479
<v Speaker 1>I would I don't ever in the past, I had

0:28:38.520 --> 0:28:41.000
<v Speaker 1>never let that um you know, when I was single,

0:28:41.040 --> 0:28:43.000
<v Speaker 1>I never let that deter me. I would always pay.

0:28:43.040 --> 0:28:44.640
<v Speaker 1>I would always be the gentleman and pay no matter

0:28:44.680 --> 0:28:47.200
<v Speaker 1>what um. The offer was always nice. If it was

0:28:47.200 --> 0:28:49.800
<v Speaker 1>a second offer or she insisted, then you start to

0:28:49.840 --> 0:28:54.520
<v Speaker 1>get that friend zone field. But I think it signifies

0:28:54.520 --> 0:28:57.600
<v Speaker 1>that it's an actual date. Yeah, if you if the

0:28:57.600 --> 0:29:02.320
<v Speaker 1>guy pays, yes, yeah, I agree, has has um. This

0:29:02.400 --> 0:29:05.240
<v Speaker 1>is just curious, Like Tori, what would happen if you

0:29:05.320 --> 0:29:08.840
<v Speaker 1>go on a date with a guy and the check

0:29:08.920 --> 0:29:13.840
<v Speaker 1>comes and the guy just chills. They're like, check comes,

0:29:14.080 --> 0:29:16.600
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't reach for his wallet, he doesn't like grab

0:29:16.640 --> 0:29:19.440
<v Speaker 1>it before you can grab it, like waiter, sets it

0:29:19.480 --> 0:29:23.240
<v Speaker 1>on the table, and the check just chills there. What

0:29:23.320 --> 0:29:26.840
<v Speaker 1>would happen? Well, that's kind of what happened on this date.

0:29:27.960 --> 0:29:30.160
<v Speaker 1>So I was like fiddling with my like wallet for

0:29:30.200 --> 0:29:34.000
<v Speaker 1>a bit, like I was like, am I gonna this? Like?

0:29:34.040 --> 0:29:36.320
<v Speaker 1>Am I gonna have an overdraft fee? Because I might?

0:29:37.200 --> 0:29:40.440
<v Speaker 1>And I was like okay, and then I like laid

0:29:40.480 --> 0:29:42.400
<v Speaker 1>it down and then he put his card on top

0:29:42.440 --> 0:29:45.920
<v Speaker 1>of mine. So ladies fidget for a couple of minutes

0:29:46.120 --> 0:29:48.080
<v Speaker 1>and hopefully he lays it first, and you're not in

0:29:48.120 --> 0:29:51.560
<v Speaker 1>my situation. That happened last time. Last time I went

0:29:51.560 --> 0:29:54.680
<v Speaker 1>out for drinks with Rick. That happened, okay, And he

0:29:54.680 --> 0:29:57.680
<v Speaker 1>didn't reach for it at all. I didn't even read

0:29:57.720 --> 0:29:59.280
<v Speaker 1>my wallet. I knew it was going to be an

0:29:59.280 --> 0:30:02.120
<v Speaker 1>easy one. Let's wall it up north and get out

0:30:02.120 --> 0:30:06.760
<v Speaker 1>of persons. But I think that also goes to who

0:30:06.800 --> 0:30:09.920
<v Speaker 1>invited who is. It's similar to like a client lunch,

0:30:09.960 --> 0:30:12.480
<v Speaker 1>Like if you're taking out your client and he pulls

0:30:12.480 --> 0:30:14.360
<v Speaker 1>out his credit card, she pulls out his creit. It's

0:30:14.400 --> 0:30:16.920
<v Speaker 1>like no, no, no, like I got this, I invited you.

0:30:17.320 --> 0:30:19.960
<v Speaker 1>This is what's going on, and I will pay you know.

0:30:20.080 --> 0:30:21.800
<v Speaker 1>I feel the same way with the date, like if

0:30:21.840 --> 0:30:25.880
<v Speaker 1>you invited that person out or hey let's grab coffee. Okay,

0:30:26.200 --> 0:30:29.760
<v Speaker 1>you buy the coffee or at least damn near offered

0:30:29.760 --> 0:30:32.920
<v Speaker 1>to buy it. Unique question then, so because this doesn't

0:30:32.960 --> 0:30:36.560
<v Speaker 1>happen as often, um, Tory, Let's say you ask a

0:30:36.600 --> 0:30:39.000
<v Speaker 1>guy on a date. A woman asked the man on

0:30:39.080 --> 0:30:46.560
<v Speaker 1>a date. Is she then expected to pay red? Uh? No, No,

0:30:47.120 --> 0:30:53.240
<v Speaker 1>I think that he gets up to the gun. I

0:30:53.800 --> 0:31:00.360
<v Speaker 1>lost it. Tory is gonna call me out. You start

0:31:00.400 --> 0:31:03.480
<v Speaker 1>to a guys, so have to you see as Ricky's

0:31:03.520 --> 0:31:10.240
<v Speaker 1>dealing with a lot with his big toe and everything. Yeah, thanks, No,

0:31:10.400 --> 0:31:13.080
<v Speaker 1>I mean I've like I've I've opened about this, I've

0:31:13.120 --> 0:31:15.400
<v Speaker 1>like slid into d m s before. We're like, you've

0:31:15.520 --> 0:31:19.120
<v Speaker 1>approached people, but I've never been like you me, let's

0:31:19.160 --> 0:31:24.000
<v Speaker 1>go mm hmmm. So I've been asked out before and

0:31:24.000 --> 0:31:26.320
<v Speaker 1>the girl said, well no, I mean you know, I asked,

0:31:26.360 --> 0:31:27.280
<v Speaker 1>so let me get it. And I said no, no no,

0:31:27.400 --> 0:31:29.320
<v Speaker 1>I said, you asked. That was step on to step two.

0:31:29.320 --> 0:31:31.120
<v Speaker 1>Now this is my turn. Now I get to buy it.

0:31:31.160 --> 0:31:35.880
<v Speaker 1>So thank you? Well played good? Yeah? Yeah, And I

0:31:35.920 --> 0:31:43.280
<v Speaker 1>think I think if the girl or whoever asks should pay. No,

0:31:43.800 --> 0:31:47.960
<v Speaker 1>you just went literally literally just flip flopping. I feel

0:31:47.960 --> 0:31:50.520
<v Speaker 1>like I'm on an on ramp in Los Angeles right now.

0:31:51.280 --> 0:31:53.920
<v Speaker 1>Question for you because undoubtedly in your life you've been

0:31:53.920 --> 0:31:58.240
<v Speaker 1>asked out by a girl. Oh no, come on, yeah,

0:31:58.280 --> 0:32:00.680
<v Speaker 1>come on, Okay, So who pays? Well, I don't know.

0:32:00.800 --> 0:32:07.000
<v Speaker 1>You get asked out? And I have always it's feel

0:32:07.040 --> 0:32:08.680
<v Speaker 1>about that. Let's go with that. How do you feel

0:32:08.680 --> 0:32:12.560
<v Speaker 1>if the girl asks you out? Oh, if I like her,

0:32:12.680 --> 0:32:15.680
<v Speaker 1>that's great. Yeah. I don't think that's an issue. The

0:32:15.720 --> 0:32:19.200
<v Speaker 1>paying paying for the bill, I'm always I maybe it

0:32:19.240 --> 0:32:20.800
<v Speaker 1>was just the way I was raised. It's like the

0:32:20.800 --> 0:32:24.840
<v Speaker 1>man is supposed to pay so um. And also it's

0:32:24.920 --> 0:32:30.360
<v Speaker 1>like I get I don't know, it's it's almost um um.

0:32:31.480 --> 0:32:34.240
<v Speaker 1>If I'm not paying, I'd feel bad to like see

0:32:34.240 --> 0:32:37.280
<v Speaker 1>a waiter, see the woman put her credit card down

0:32:37.320 --> 0:32:42.480
<v Speaker 1>on me, just go alright, great, yesh. So even that

0:32:42.600 --> 0:32:45.680
<v Speaker 1>it just emasculates me. It's like, I just you know,

0:32:46.480 --> 0:32:48.880
<v Speaker 1>I think the guy should always pay, even if the

0:32:48.880 --> 0:32:54.040
<v Speaker 1>girl asks, ow, yeah, what if she like ordered surf

0:32:54.120 --> 0:33:01.480
<v Speaker 1>and turf and that doesn't but then let me see,

0:33:01.520 --> 0:33:04.440
<v Speaker 1>okay in the handbook, now you went, so you have

0:33:04.480 --> 0:33:10.360
<v Speaker 1>to at least split it. That's it. It doesn't matter

0:33:10.400 --> 0:33:14.239
<v Speaker 1>who you're with. I get uncomfortable even like if we

0:33:14.240 --> 0:33:15.680
<v Speaker 1>were to if I were to go out with a buddy, right,

0:33:15.720 --> 0:33:17.800
<v Speaker 1>said Brooks. You and I go out and you get

0:33:17.840 --> 0:33:19.600
<v Speaker 1>like a steak and a lobster, and I get like

0:33:19.600 --> 0:33:22.920
<v Speaker 1>a cheeseburger, it's still uncomfortable to me to be like, well,

0:33:22.960 --> 0:33:25.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean you had I will split that right down

0:33:25.400 --> 0:33:28.360
<v Speaker 1>the middle, like there's just no haggling, Like it's it's

0:33:28.440 --> 0:33:31.760
<v Speaker 1>very uncomfortable. That's that's j V. That's like college, Like

0:33:32.000 --> 0:33:34.120
<v Speaker 1>I'm only on a strict budget, Like, dude, you got

0:33:34.160 --> 0:33:39.840
<v Speaker 1>chicken in your brito, I got steak. I'm a story

0:33:39.840 --> 0:33:42.560
<v Speaker 1>for this my very first pro meal. So when I

0:33:42.600 --> 0:33:46.000
<v Speaker 1>turned pro and we went out, we went to Philadelphia,

0:33:46.000 --> 0:33:48.000
<v Speaker 1>playing the game in Philly, and we went out for

0:33:48.040 --> 0:33:50.960
<v Speaker 1>supper as a team, and we had one guy on

0:33:50.960 --> 0:33:53.560
<v Speaker 1>our team he had just turned pro as well. He's

0:33:53.640 --> 0:33:55.800
<v Speaker 1>young guy had just turned pro as well. And you

0:33:55.840 --> 0:33:59.240
<v Speaker 1>haven't got your paychecks yet, like you're I was making

0:33:59.320 --> 0:34:02.280
<v Speaker 1>ninety buck every two weeks in junior hockey before I

0:34:02.320 --> 0:34:05.840
<v Speaker 1>turned pro, so like you're waiting for your paycheck. And

0:34:05.960 --> 0:34:09.319
<v Speaker 1>the very first meal, he orders like a club sandwich,

0:34:09.760 --> 0:34:13.000
<v Speaker 1>like a twelve dollars or we're at a nice restaurant,

0:34:13.040 --> 0:34:16.160
<v Speaker 1>steakhouse something. He gets like a club sandwich or something whatever.

0:34:16.200 --> 0:34:19.520
<v Speaker 1>It was ham and cheese, I don't know. And guys

0:34:19.560 --> 0:34:23.680
<v Speaker 1>have the steaks, flaming yawns, wine coming, whatever, and then

0:34:23.719 --> 0:34:26.040
<v Speaker 1>the bill comes and everybody just divvyes it up. That's

0:34:26.080 --> 0:34:28.440
<v Speaker 1>what the guys do, right, He says, twelve guys are

0:34:28.440 --> 0:34:32.239
<v Speaker 1>out for supper here it's uh hunter bucks each and

0:34:32.239 --> 0:34:36.080
<v Speaker 1>and he freaking loses his mind. He's like, what, like what,

0:34:36.520 --> 0:34:41.560
<v Speaker 1>I don't had a freaking club sandwiches twelve bucks. It

0:34:41.680 --> 0:34:45.920
<v Speaker 1>was his baptism to pro um, and he was pissed.

0:34:45.960 --> 0:34:48.719
<v Speaker 1>His face was read. He probably had to take out

0:34:48.719 --> 0:34:50.480
<v Speaker 1>a loan to pay for his supper that night. You

0:34:50.520 --> 0:34:53.320
<v Speaker 1>know it would be great, ine, but see in hockey.

0:34:53.400 --> 0:34:55.480
<v Speaker 1>You know there's fighting in hockey. What would be great

0:34:55.840 --> 0:34:57.800
<v Speaker 1>is if they would if he would have actually thrown

0:34:57.880 --> 0:34:59.880
<v Speaker 1>hands at that point, like it would have been just

0:35:00.080 --> 0:35:02.239
<v Speaker 1>like a hockey match where then he's like, you know what,

0:35:02.280 --> 0:35:04.200
<v Speaker 1>I got a club sandwich and just starts hitting the

0:35:04.200 --> 0:35:06.960
<v Speaker 1>guy next to him, and it's just the two of them.

0:35:07.000 --> 0:35:09.440
<v Speaker 1>You gotta let him go. And then whoever takes the

0:35:09.440 --> 0:35:11.799
<v Speaker 1>guy down, then it's like, Okay, pulls his button down

0:35:11.880 --> 0:35:14.160
<v Speaker 1>over his head, just started weiling on him. And then

0:35:14.239 --> 0:35:16.279
<v Speaker 1>the local news that night as that scuffle broke out

0:35:16.280 --> 0:35:19.320
<v Speaker 1>at the Master of steakhouse and I over a club sandwich.

0:35:21.440 --> 0:35:23.560
<v Speaker 1>But hey, all of us have that guy in our

0:35:23.560 --> 0:35:27.200
<v Speaker 1>friend group that are like that wants to divvy up

0:35:27.239 --> 0:35:30.279
<v Speaker 1>and split a nine person meal. It's like, I just

0:35:30.360 --> 0:35:32.640
<v Speaker 1>want my little segment and you can tell how they're

0:35:32.719 --> 0:35:36.840
<v Speaker 1>ordering too. Um. I had a buddy that used to

0:35:36.880 --> 0:35:39.160
<v Speaker 1>carry quarters in his wallet, so if it came down

0:35:39.239 --> 0:35:41.879
<v Speaker 1>to like fifty cents, he tossed in the fifty cents

0:35:42.080 --> 0:35:44.160
<v Speaker 1>and it would make me soone comes out like just

0:35:44.320 --> 0:35:45.960
<v Speaker 1>every So what I would tend to do is be

0:35:46.000 --> 0:35:47.640
<v Speaker 1>like everybody just putting in what you think you will

0:35:47.719 --> 0:35:49.239
<v Speaker 1>and then I'm gonna pay the rest because it was

0:35:49.280 --> 0:35:54.640
<v Speaker 1>so uncomfortable to me. Would you at quarters at that point? Yeah,

0:35:54.880 --> 0:35:59.279
<v Speaker 1>this is still going on with these guys. It's gonna

0:35:59.280 --> 0:36:03.560
<v Speaker 1>be like years ago, right, hopefully. We also had one

0:36:03.560 --> 0:36:06.399
<v Speaker 1>guy on our team who every meal he would put

0:36:06.440 --> 0:36:08.440
<v Speaker 1>it on his credit card and just take cash from

0:36:08.440 --> 0:36:11.600
<v Speaker 1>the other guys every single time. Every single time he

0:36:11.640 --> 0:36:13.080
<v Speaker 1>would put he's like, I got a boys put on

0:36:13.120 --> 0:36:15.000
<v Speaker 1>his credit card. The other guys will pay him eighty

0:36:15.080 --> 0:36:17.239
<v Speaker 1>bucks cash whatever. It was. End of the year, he

0:36:17.280 --> 0:36:20.760
<v Speaker 1>had like just thousands and thousands of frequent Flyer mars,

0:36:20.800 --> 0:36:23.319
<v Speaker 1>like just he could fly all summer long. He was

0:36:23.400 --> 0:36:27.360
<v Speaker 1>just on a countrywide tour flying first class just courtesy

0:36:27.360 --> 0:36:29.200
<v Speaker 1>of what he put on his credit card for the

0:36:29.200 --> 0:36:35.040
<v Speaker 1>boys meals over the year into a gambling rehab. This

0:36:35.080 --> 0:36:39.520
<v Speaker 1>guy quite posibly. Isn't this nice to sit around and

0:36:39.520 --> 0:36:41.160
<v Speaker 1>talk about when we used to go to restaurants in

0:36:41.239 --> 0:36:55.319
<v Speaker 1>large groups? Right? So joining us now we Dr Neil Bart,

0:37:09.640 --> 0:37:12.560
<v Speaker 1>Dan's bio was huge, but reading your bio was like

0:37:13.000 --> 0:37:15.680
<v Speaker 1>thirty pages. And I'm like, this guy, how is he

<v Speaker 1>a doctor and a producer like Harvard grad and all

0:37:19.880 --> 0:37:22.560
<v Speaker 1>of this stuff. And I've always been as as an

0:37:22.600 --> 0:37:25.960
<v Speaker 1>athlete and ex athlete, I've always been fascinated by people

0:37:26.000 --> 0:37:30.680
<v Speaker 1>who can cross over into multiple industries. And so your

0:37:30.880 --> 0:37:34.600
<v Speaker 1>your medical background is exceptional, but then what you've done

0:37:34.600 --> 0:37:38.000
<v Speaker 1>in the entertainment world is equally as exceptional. So I

<v Speaker 1>so what is this issue with gout do you have? Um? Um? So,

0:39:32.560 --> 0:39:35.680
<v Speaker 1>I about a month ago, I woke up going on

0:39:35.760 --> 0:39:38.640
<v Speaker 1>a fishing trip with my son up in Oregon, and

0:39:38.680 --> 0:39:40.920
<v Speaker 1>I woke up in my my left big toe just

0:39:40.920 --> 0:39:44.520
<v Speaker 1>started hurting and I wasn't walking right, and I just

0:39:44.560 --> 0:39:47.279
<v Speaker 1>took a bunch of ivyprofen, got in the car. We

0:39:47.400 --> 0:39:49.879
<v Speaker 1>went on the whole fishing trip, and it just progressively

0:39:49.920 --> 0:39:53.959
<v Speaker 1>got worse as we moved along. And so I called

0:39:53.960 --> 0:39:55.920
<v Speaker 1>a buddy of mine and I was actually one of

0:39:56.200 --> 0:39:58.200
<v Speaker 1>the guys, said, you know, I think you may have

0:39:58.280 --> 0:40:00.279
<v Speaker 1>gout like I had it in my finger and said

0:40:00.320 --> 0:40:03.279
<v Speaker 1>it was just this extreme paine and it absolutely. He's like,

0:40:03.280 --> 0:40:06.560
<v Speaker 1>are you eating red meat and drinking beer and and

0:40:06.600 --> 0:40:08.680
<v Speaker 1>all that? And I and I really don't drink all

0:40:08.680 --> 0:40:10.080
<v Speaker 1>that much, but I do eat a lot of a

0:40:10.120 --> 0:40:12.759
<v Speaker 1>lot of steak and ribs and things. Um, and I

0:40:12.800 --> 0:40:16.879
<v Speaker 1>have been a little bit more so since COVID. But um,

0:40:17.760 --> 0:40:23.920
<v Speaker 1>liver do you eat liver? And oregan? No? Higher? And yeah,

0:40:23.920 --> 0:40:28.320
<v Speaker 1>like cholesterol side of it in the problems that cause gaped,

0:40:28.400 --> 0:40:32.799
<v Speaker 1>but the crystallization, yeah, yeah, um so you can. Do

0:40:32.840 --> 0:40:35.040
<v Speaker 1>you drink a lot of water? I drink a ton

0:40:35.080 --> 0:40:38.040
<v Speaker 1>of water A ton of water. Yeah, so you know,

0:40:38.280 --> 0:40:40.719
<v Speaker 1>I think I'm all in favor of So it could

0:40:40.760 --> 0:40:43.439
<v Speaker 1>be gap, but it's only you've had it once. I've

0:40:43.440 --> 0:40:46.959
<v Speaker 1>only had it once. And through the trip We've gone

0:40:46.960 --> 0:40:49.680
<v Speaker 1>for about a week and it just got worse and

0:40:49.719 --> 0:40:52.279
<v Speaker 1>worse and worse. And I couldn't even get I wear

0:40:52.360 --> 0:40:55.400
<v Speaker 1>like van slip bombs for the most part um and

0:40:55.440 --> 0:40:58.400
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't even get my foot into the into the

0:40:58.480 --> 0:41:00.960
<v Speaker 1>vans to do when I was bobbling around. It was

0:41:01.000 --> 0:41:03.880
<v Speaker 1>really it was swollen but not read. And you know,

0:41:03.920 --> 0:41:06.560
<v Speaker 1>I started googling it what was gout and they said

0:41:06.560 --> 0:41:09.239
<v Speaker 1>it's very red and it looks super ugly, and so

0:41:09.280 --> 0:41:11.840
<v Speaker 1>I'm like, maybe it's knocked out. And I called a

0:41:11.840 --> 0:41:15.320
<v Speaker 1>friend and they said that it was meta for metator

0:41:15.400 --> 0:41:18.800
<v Speaker 1>soul filia or something along those lines. So yeah, it

0:41:18.840 --> 0:41:20.879
<v Speaker 1>could be. It could be a lot of different things.

0:41:20.920 --> 0:41:23.439
<v Speaker 1>So I'm I'm always a believer in you know, when

0:41:23.440 --> 0:41:26.640
<v Speaker 1>you have a problem going to a physician or a

0:41:26.680 --> 0:41:30.319
<v Speaker 1>physician assistant or a nurse practitioner and having a work up.

0:41:30.719 --> 0:41:32.840
<v Speaker 1>I did an episode once on The R where No

0:41:33.040 --> 0:41:36.480
<v Speaker 1>Wiley's character spent thousands of dollars because he was afraid

0:41:36.480 --> 0:41:39.640
<v Speaker 1>of missing something and and he he ended up finding

0:41:39.680 --> 0:41:43.080
<v Speaker 1>something so rare in this patient it paid off. But

0:41:43.160 --> 0:41:45.920
<v Speaker 1>typically we're not supposed to do that. It's like it's

0:41:45.920 --> 0:41:50.879
<v Speaker 1>called shotgunning. The patient shot and the patient. But but

0:41:51.200 --> 0:41:52.879
<v Speaker 1>you know, in your case, when was the last time

0:41:52.880 --> 0:41:55.759
<v Speaker 1>you had a physical exam and a full workup of

0:41:56.320 --> 0:41:59.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, blood, all the blood tests that you know,

0:41:59.160 --> 0:42:04.120
<v Speaker 1>testosterone that gets into the issues of sex because if

0:42:04.120 --> 0:42:07.440
<v Speaker 1>you have a low testosterone level, that can be addressed.

0:42:08.000 --> 0:42:10.360
<v Speaker 1>So I got your age, should you know, probably have

0:42:10.440 --> 0:42:15.319
<v Speaker 1>this testosterone checked and have a complete blood work up

0:42:15.760 --> 0:42:20.080
<v Speaker 1>and uh yeah, even so, and uh he was just

0:42:20.160 --> 0:42:23.520
<v Speaker 1>flexing in a plaid shirt like I don't know. And also,

0:42:24.280 --> 0:42:28.120
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's been interesting for me during COVID is that, um,

0:42:29.200 --> 0:42:33.320
<v Speaker 1>I stopped eating sugar, which I love, So I love sugar.

0:42:33.400 --> 0:42:37.600
<v Speaker 1>So I stopped for the last three months, and I

0:42:37.640 --> 0:42:40.960
<v Speaker 1>feel a lot better. And I usually think it's kind

0:42:41.000 --> 0:42:44.239
<v Speaker 1>of you know, crap that people say that, but I

0:42:44.280 --> 0:42:47.680
<v Speaker 1>really do sleep better and I really do feel better

0:42:47.719 --> 0:42:49.800
<v Speaker 1>and I have more energy. So I have had literally

0:42:50.520 --> 0:42:52.920
<v Speaker 1>no sugar. I like, look at labels and all that.

0:42:53.000 --> 0:42:58.200
<v Speaker 1>So I'm I'm, I'm do you drink soda. Yeah, okay,

0:42:59.680 --> 0:43:02.279
<v Speaker 1>I each your class. I'm glad. I'm glad I asked you. So.

0:43:02.280 --> 0:43:05.040
<v Speaker 1>I just thought, of course, at Harvard's Kennedy School of

0:43:05.080 --> 0:43:09.880
<v Speaker 1>Government called soda politics, and I love it when somebody

0:43:09.920 --> 0:43:12.800
<v Speaker 1>says they drink soda, because then I can scare the

0:43:13.000 --> 0:43:15.160
<v Speaker 1>hell out of them and say there was a study

0:43:15.239 --> 0:43:19.200
<v Speaker 1>done of men who drink one sweet and soda a

0:43:19.280 --> 0:43:21.719
<v Speaker 1>day and it had an end or the number of

0:43:21.719 --> 0:43:25.640
<v Speaker 1>participants was in tens of thousands. Was published in the

0:43:25.680 --> 0:43:28.399
<v Speaker 1>journal Cardiology, and it showed that men who drink one

0:43:28.440 --> 0:43:31.200
<v Speaker 1>sweetened soda day one soda is sugar, not diet soda,

0:43:31.520 --> 0:43:36.360
<v Speaker 1>had increase in heart disease. So if you do anything

0:43:36.880 --> 0:43:40.200
<v Speaker 1>besides there's two things. As a physician, I recommend don't

0:43:40.239 --> 0:43:43.400
<v Speaker 1>smoke cigarettes because we just know it takes years off

0:43:43.440 --> 0:43:49.560
<v Speaker 1>your life. And two, don't drink soda. Drink water because

0:43:49.920 --> 0:43:52.560
<v Speaker 1>there we have so many studies now that show that

0:43:52.800 --> 0:43:56.320
<v Speaker 1>is harmful for men and women, but it's particularly harmful

0:43:56.360 --> 0:44:00.279
<v Speaker 1>for men. What we think happens is that um, the

0:44:00.400 --> 0:44:04.239
<v Speaker 1>high fruit toast corn syrup in the soda um, when

0:44:04.239 --> 0:44:07.640
<v Speaker 1>you consume it goes directly into your bloodstream. It causes

0:44:07.680 --> 0:44:13.240
<v Speaker 1>fatty liver and also the liver processes to hide fruit

0:44:13.239 --> 0:44:16.600
<v Speaker 1>toast corn syrup in such a way that it raises

0:44:16.640 --> 0:44:20.360
<v Speaker 1>your triglycerides. So if you could do some things to

0:44:20.520 --> 0:44:24.400
<v Speaker 1>improve your health, you know, without really like harming your lifestyle,

0:44:25.360 --> 0:44:28.160
<v Speaker 1>I would say the first thing to do would be

0:44:28.320 --> 0:44:30.960
<v Speaker 1>to not drink soda and cut Sure, you know you

0:44:30.960 --> 0:44:32.800
<v Speaker 1>don't have to cut all sugar out of your life,

0:44:33.080 --> 0:44:36.759
<v Speaker 1>but just not drinking soda has a huge impact on

0:44:37.160 --> 0:44:40.120
<v Speaker 1>people i've seen. Dr Neil. Thank you for your time.

0:44:40.160 --> 0:44:43.920
<v Speaker 1>I appreciate we'd love to have you back sometimes. Thanks. Sorry,

0:44:44.800 --> 0:44:49.560
<v Speaker 1>get your tested Yeah yeah, I know, the big old

0:44:49.560 --> 0:45:01.239
<v Speaker 1>needle out. Anyway, Dan, I appreciate your time. Worries, this

0:45:01.360 --> 0:45:04.160
<v Speaker 1>is a good time. Get me into uh, give me

0:45:04.160 --> 0:45:07.359
<v Speaker 1>into your book. Here this I'm being like a karate kick.

0:45:07.440 --> 0:45:10.479
<v Speaker 1>They're coming off the cover because yeah, that's the actual book.

0:45:10.520 --> 0:45:13.560
<v Speaker 1>It's called. It's called Step Off My Journey from Membo

0:45:13.680 --> 0:45:16.359
<v Speaker 1>to Manhood, And I'm gonna cut you off real quick

0:45:16.360 --> 0:45:17.600
<v Speaker 1>and then you can get back to it. My fav

0:45:17.719 --> 0:45:21.879
<v Speaker 1>the title is my favorite because people know Dan from

0:45:21.920 --> 0:45:25.759
<v Speaker 1>whatever you know, uh from uh MTV uh and all that.

0:45:25.840 --> 0:45:29.320
<v Speaker 1>But anybody that hasn't figured it out. Yet he is Tony,

0:45:29.480 --> 0:45:34.120
<v Speaker 1>the male membo from Seinfeld clients take iconic episode, and

0:45:34.160 --> 0:45:36.880
<v Speaker 1>he kept the famous line was step off. So anyway,

0:45:36.920 --> 0:45:39.719
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry that the title alone sells well and even

0:45:39.800 --> 0:45:41.800
<v Speaker 1>where how we came up with that. I was approached

0:45:41.800 --> 0:45:42.960
<v Speaker 1>to write the book, and I'll make this quick. I

0:45:43.000 --> 0:45:44.840
<v Speaker 1>was approached to write the book, and this guy that

0:45:44.880 --> 0:45:46.520
<v Speaker 1>approached me to write it kept saying I wanted to

0:45:46.520 --> 0:45:48.919
<v Speaker 1>be Dan. I wanted to be more Dan. I wanted

0:45:48.960 --> 0:45:50.959
<v Speaker 1>to be positive. I wanted to be so, I said,

0:45:51.000 --> 0:45:53.040
<v Speaker 1>I don't you know. We had never met in person.

0:45:53.080 --> 0:45:54.959
<v Speaker 1>We had spoken on the phone a few times. I said,

0:45:55.600 --> 0:45:57.000
<v Speaker 1>I'm not trying to be a jerk, but I want

0:45:57.000 --> 0:45:59.040
<v Speaker 1>to know, like, what do you think I would be

0:45:59.080 --> 0:46:01.040
<v Speaker 1>like in Purse? And because you keep saying you wanted

0:46:01.120 --> 0:46:02.520
<v Speaker 1>to be more Dan, I don't know what the hell

0:46:02.640 --> 0:46:05.000
<v Speaker 1>you're talking about. And he said what he had asked

0:46:05.040 --> 0:46:07.879
<v Speaker 1>around the publishing house, he goes in as a whole,

0:46:07.920 --> 0:46:10.040
<v Speaker 1>we kind of think you'd be a lot like the

0:46:10.120 --> 0:46:13.480
<v Speaker 1>character you played on Seinfeld. And then he went on

0:46:13.600 --> 0:46:15.399
<v Speaker 1>to say all these nice things about me. But all

0:46:15.440 --> 0:46:18.400
<v Speaker 1>I heard is Dmitri said, all I heard was he

0:46:18.520 --> 0:46:21.319
<v Speaker 1>called me a membo, a male bimbo, and that's all

0:46:21.360 --> 0:46:22.960
<v Speaker 1>I heard. So as he was saying all these other

0:46:22.960 --> 0:46:25.440
<v Speaker 1>flattering things, I said, I'll write the book. I want

0:46:25.440 --> 0:46:27.880
<v Speaker 1>to write the book. And he's like, why, it's because

0:46:28.239 --> 0:46:30.400
<v Speaker 1>I think there's so much more to me than that.

0:46:30.520 --> 0:46:32.000
<v Speaker 1>So but I told him, I said, I want the

0:46:32.040 --> 0:46:35.960
<v Speaker 1>title to be my journey from Membo to manhood. So look,

0:46:36.400 --> 0:46:38.839
<v Speaker 1>I hope that's what achieved. I achieved throughout the story,

0:46:38.840 --> 0:46:41.160
<v Speaker 1>because I even right in the introduction, if this it's

0:46:41.239 --> 0:46:43.319
<v Speaker 1>Membo to manhood, I hope If it's just Membo two

0:46:43.320 --> 0:46:45.480
<v Speaker 1>older Membo, that wouldn't be good. We just need to

0:46:45.520 --> 0:46:48.720
<v Speaker 1>make sure that we get to the manhood part um.

0:46:49.080 --> 0:46:52.359
<v Speaker 1>But it was it was really um. Just writing it

0:46:52.400 --> 0:46:54.880
<v Speaker 1>was a cathartic experience for me because like as guys,

0:46:54.960 --> 0:46:57.680
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's I wanted it to be sort of

0:46:57.680 --> 0:47:00.760
<v Speaker 1>this journey of taking my life as a as a puzzle,

0:47:01.160 --> 0:47:03.879
<v Speaker 1>tearing it all apart, and then taking the stories that

0:47:04.920 --> 0:47:07.960
<v Speaker 1>really seemed inconsequential that for some reason, I remember this

0:47:08.000 --> 0:47:10.120
<v Speaker 1>Little League story from when I was ten, I don't

0:47:10.120 --> 0:47:12.760
<v Speaker 1>know why, and I sort of took all those stories

0:47:12.800 --> 0:47:15.360
<v Speaker 1>from my life and sort of pieced it back together

0:47:15.560 --> 0:47:18.319
<v Speaker 1>to see if that puzzle still looks the same that

0:47:18.400 --> 0:47:20.839
<v Speaker 1>I think it does, because I said, truthfully, the way

0:47:20.920 --> 0:47:23.560
<v Speaker 1>I think of myself, the way other people think of me,

0:47:23.600 --> 0:47:25.160
<v Speaker 1>and the way I think other people think of me

0:47:25.200 --> 0:47:28.279
<v Speaker 1>are three entirely different things. So I at least want

0:47:28.280 --> 0:47:30.120
<v Speaker 1>to know I am who I am by the end

0:47:30.120 --> 0:47:32.840
<v Speaker 1>of this. So that's sort of the And the book's

0:47:32.840 --> 0:47:36.279
<v Speaker 1>broken down into three parts, my foundation, fame, and fatherhood.

0:47:36.480 --> 0:47:38.720
<v Speaker 1>And I was telling somebody the other day, so truthfully,

0:47:38.719 --> 0:47:41.319
<v Speaker 1>the hardest part for me to write was the fame part,

0:47:41.400 --> 0:47:44.960
<v Speaker 1>because the publishers wanted, we want stories about being an actor,

0:47:45.040 --> 0:47:46.759
<v Speaker 1>and I was like, I'm not going to sit there

0:47:46.800 --> 0:47:49.759
<v Speaker 1>and write, well this one time when I was on

0:47:49.800 --> 0:47:52.960
<v Speaker 1>the set with Curts the alley we did, I didn't

0:47:53.000 --> 0:47:55.640
<v Speaker 1>want it to be that, so you know, I tried

0:47:55.680 --> 0:47:59.720
<v Speaker 1>to And another thing I told them also, each chapter

0:48:00.680 --> 0:48:03.200
<v Speaker 1>I'm writing it basically for guys, I don't want to

0:48:03.200 --> 0:48:05.960
<v Speaker 1>read a chapter that's longer than five pages, like, let

0:48:05.960 --> 0:48:07.640
<v Speaker 1>me be able to read that at five And so

0:48:07.760 --> 0:48:10.920
<v Speaker 1>my chapters are short. They're anecdotal stories about this point

0:48:10.960 --> 0:48:12.600
<v Speaker 1>in my life. This got me to this, and it's

0:48:12.880 --> 0:48:15.040
<v Speaker 1>let's put a little bow on the end of you know,

0:48:15.120 --> 0:48:18.080
<v Speaker 1>every story, and here's what I learned from it. So um,

0:48:18.120 --> 0:48:20.320
<v Speaker 1>it was a lot of fun. It was a great

0:48:20.400 --> 0:48:24.959
<v Speaker 1>cathartic experience. And yeah, there's some there's some Seinfeld story

0:48:25.000 --> 0:48:27.600
<v Speaker 1>and there the whole Even the way I got that gig,

0:48:27.800 --> 0:48:30.479
<v Speaker 1>I got a call from my manager who then said

0:48:30.480 --> 0:48:33.919
<v Speaker 1>it's when I was working for MTV, said, Larry uh

0:48:34.040 --> 0:48:36.520
<v Speaker 1>David and Jerry Seinfeld want to meet with you. They

0:48:36.680 --> 0:48:38.960
<v Speaker 1>they I thought I was auditioning for the show was

0:48:39.000 --> 0:48:41.359
<v Speaker 1>my favorite show at the time. So I go in

0:48:41.480 --> 0:48:43.759
<v Speaker 1>and it was in the afternoon that afternoon and they're

0:48:43.760 --> 0:48:47.320
<v Speaker 1>sitting in there, just the two of them, and so, okay,

0:48:47.320 --> 0:48:49.399
<v Speaker 1>this is great. We sit there and shoot for ten

0:48:49.440 --> 0:48:51.840
<v Speaker 1>fifteen minutes, and then I was like, what my do

0:48:51.840 --> 0:48:53.600
<v Speaker 1>you guys have sides? What do you want me to read?

0:48:53.640 --> 0:48:55.160
<v Speaker 1>And Larry just goes, no, I just need to see

0:48:55.160 --> 0:48:58.200
<v Speaker 1>if you can put two words together. So we'll see

0:48:58.200 --> 0:49:01.799
<v Speaker 1>you tomorrow. We're starting tomorrow. And so that was sort

0:49:01.840 --> 0:49:03.759
<v Speaker 1>of how that. I was like, Okay, so I got

0:49:03.760 --> 0:49:07.040
<v Speaker 1>the job. They're like, yeah, you got the job, so um,

0:49:07.200 --> 0:49:09.840
<v Speaker 1>and but what a what a great experience that was,

0:49:09.880 --> 0:49:11.960
<v Speaker 1>And just you know, to meet your as what you

0:49:12.000 --> 0:49:15.880
<v Speaker 1>know just from working with comedy pros, like when you

0:49:15.920 --> 0:49:18.800
<v Speaker 1>get there. There was no ego there. That was Larry's

0:49:18.840 --> 0:49:21.480
<v Speaker 1>whole thing and Jerry as well. They just wanted whatever's funniest,

0:49:22.080 --> 0:49:25.879
<v Speaker 1>say it, whatever's funniest, just do it. And if they

0:49:25.880 --> 0:49:27.800
<v Speaker 1>had told me a story about there was one episode

0:49:27.800 --> 0:49:30.680
<v Speaker 1>of Seinfeld where the episode where Jerry couldn't remember his

0:49:30.719 --> 0:49:33.320
<v Speaker 1>girlfriend's name, but he remembered it rhymed with a female

0:49:33.400 --> 0:49:36.520
<v Speaker 1>body part and he couldn't remember, couldn't remember, and the

0:49:36.520 --> 0:49:39.000
<v Speaker 1>writers were having trouble coming up the joke wasn't landing,

0:49:39.040 --> 0:49:41.359
<v Speaker 1>so on the in front of the odysse at night,

0:49:41.440 --> 0:49:44.040
<v Speaker 1>couldn't come up with the so the warm up guy

0:49:44.160 --> 0:49:45.960
<v Speaker 1>had asked the honest, does anybody have a joke that

0:49:46.040 --> 0:49:48.320
<v Speaker 1>maybe they could use her? What's a what's a female

0:49:48.400 --> 0:49:50.040
<v Speaker 1>name that rhymes the body part? And some guy in

0:49:50.080 --> 0:49:54.320
<v Speaker 1>the crowd said mulva and the crowd erupted and laughed,

0:49:54.320 --> 0:49:57.760
<v Speaker 1>and Larry said that use that, Okay, writer, stop writing,

0:49:57.760 --> 0:49:59.919
<v Speaker 1>just use that, And I said it's funny. I told

0:49:59.920 --> 0:50:01.799
<v Speaker 1>my wife again. You know there's some guy like at

0:50:01.800 --> 0:50:04.279
<v Speaker 1>a bar in Milwaukee that sits at the end of

0:50:04.320 --> 0:50:08.200
<v Speaker 1>the bar. You know that episode that was me came

0:50:08.280 --> 0:50:11.600
<v Speaker 1>up with that, I was Mova, that was my idea.

0:50:12.600 --> 0:50:14.560
<v Speaker 1>That's the that's the brilliance of it, though. They that's

0:50:14.600 --> 0:50:16.480
<v Speaker 1>why the show was so successful because they do you

0:50:16.520 --> 0:50:19.919
<v Speaker 1>want the best. When the egos get involved, then it's like, well,

0:50:19.960 --> 0:50:21.759
<v Speaker 1>now you're not going for the best product, You're just

0:50:21.800 --> 0:50:25.480
<v Speaker 1>going for the best. Congratulations. And you know, luckily because

0:50:25.600 --> 0:50:28.400
<v Speaker 1>that episode, the one, the one when you were on

0:50:29.200 --> 0:50:31.399
<v Speaker 1>you stole a lot of scenes in that in that

0:50:31.520 --> 0:50:34.960
<v Speaker 1>and so when people reference that episode, they're all referencing

0:50:35.000 --> 0:50:37.920
<v Speaker 1>you the and and you know what, I had no

0:50:38.000 --> 0:50:39.839
<v Speaker 1>clue what the hell I was doing. Sometimes, I mean

0:50:39.960 --> 0:50:42.520
<v Speaker 1>I even and I've never really told anybody this other

0:50:42.520 --> 0:50:44.800
<v Speaker 1>than my wife. I watched that episode. Sometimes when I

0:50:44.840 --> 0:50:47.439
<v Speaker 1>see it a rerun and I cringe, I'm like, oh

0:50:47.480 --> 0:50:50.680
<v Speaker 1>my god, I'm so bad. This was so bad. And

0:50:50.719 --> 0:50:53.080
<v Speaker 1>people I'll meet people that are going, oh, the way

0:50:53.080 --> 0:50:55.640
<v Speaker 1>you created the character and I was just trying to

0:50:55.680 --> 0:50:58.880
<v Speaker 1>remember the lines. That was the first. That was the

0:50:58.960 --> 0:51:02.839
<v Speaker 1>first sitcom m I had ever done. I've done dramas before,

0:51:02.880 --> 0:51:04.719
<v Speaker 1>but that was the first sitcom. And of course I'm

0:51:04.760 --> 0:51:08.279
<v Speaker 1>working with the the uh, you know cast of Seinfeld.

0:51:08.360 --> 0:51:12.040
<v Speaker 1>I was so nervous. It was just like so you know.

0:51:12.120 --> 0:51:14.360
<v Speaker 1>And the weird thing about that too, that show, for

0:51:14.400 --> 0:51:16.720
<v Speaker 1>the longest time was one of their highest rated shows,

0:51:17.120 --> 0:51:18.640
<v Speaker 1>and that I would always tell people it was because

0:51:18.680 --> 0:51:22.319
<v Speaker 1>of me, but it was apparently nothing else was ever

0:51:22.400 --> 0:51:24.600
<v Speaker 1>on after that. It wasn't until like their super Bowl

0:51:24.600 --> 0:51:28.000
<v Speaker 1>episode that for some reason that that sort of stayed

0:51:28.080 --> 0:51:30.960
<v Speaker 1>up there. But yeah, you do an episode of sign

0:51:31.000 --> 0:51:33.400
<v Speaker 1>for when like the show I did for MTV for

0:51:33.440 --> 0:51:35.560
<v Speaker 1>six years, when our first two years we were there

0:51:35.640 --> 0:51:38.319
<v Speaker 1>number one show in the world's seventy two countries, and people,

0:51:38.360 --> 0:51:41.880
<v Speaker 1>would you know, they'd recognize me. The day after the

0:51:42.000 --> 0:51:45.319
<v Speaker 1>Seinfeld episode aired, I was in Hollywood for a cast

0:51:45.360 --> 0:51:48.760
<v Speaker 1>physical for shows doing in Vancouver and I got recognized

0:51:48.760 --> 0:51:50.799
<v Speaker 1>walking out of the doctor's office to my car. Some

0:51:50.840 --> 0:51:53.719
<v Speaker 1>guy yelled and called me a membo. I said, it's

0:51:53.760 --> 0:51:56.759
<v Speaker 1>the difference between the power of network television and the

0:51:56.840 --> 0:52:00.400
<v Speaker 1>number one show on television and basic cable percent. And

0:52:00.480 --> 0:52:02.400
<v Speaker 1>that's why I interrupted you before, because if you were

0:52:02.440 --> 0:52:05.400
<v Speaker 1>to say step off to somebody right now, that is

0:52:05.440 --> 0:52:07.680
<v Speaker 1>exactly where their mind will go. They're like, oh, step off.

0:52:07.680 --> 0:52:11.799
<v Speaker 1>Oh I gotta make some people of sandwiches. They'll stot

0:52:11.920 --> 0:52:14.640
<v Speaker 1>just rattling off random lines from that episode, and then

0:52:14.680 --> 0:52:16.600
<v Speaker 1>those two words, which is why it's a perfect title.

0:52:16.760 --> 0:52:19.799
<v Speaker 1>Those two words bring people straight to that well. And

0:52:19.880 --> 0:52:22.120
<v Speaker 1>the weird thing with that too was they had they

0:52:22.120 --> 0:52:24.400
<v Speaker 1>had a line because I've been given credit for writing

0:52:24.440 --> 0:52:27.120
<v Speaker 1>that line step off. I didn't write it. I didn't

0:52:27.120 --> 0:52:29.160
<v Speaker 1>go to Larry David and say I want to a

0:52:29.160 --> 0:52:34.319
<v Speaker 1>line change. It was the guy in the audience. They

0:52:34.400 --> 0:52:37.040
<v Speaker 1>had a joke that wasn't landing, and then they were

0:52:37.040 --> 0:52:38.840
<v Speaker 1>trying to come up with something. So then Larry asked me,

0:52:38.880 --> 0:52:41.680
<v Speaker 1>he goes, you were like twenty three, you work on MTV.

0:52:41.760 --> 0:52:44.000
<v Speaker 1>What do you what would kids your age say? And

0:52:44.040 --> 0:52:45.959
<v Speaker 1>I don't even that was like the second or third

0:52:45.960 --> 0:52:48.160
<v Speaker 1>thing I said that I said was step off. And

0:52:48.200 --> 0:52:52.200
<v Speaker 1>then Jason Alexander said it with his George Costanza you

0:52:52.239 --> 0:52:55.000
<v Speaker 1>know New York accent, and the crew laughed. So then

0:52:55.120 --> 0:52:57.800
<v Speaker 1>Larry was like, yeah, just say step off. That works. Wow,

0:52:57.960 --> 0:53:01.839
<v Speaker 1>these these little stories are so cool awesome. Yeah, that's

0:53:01.880 --> 0:53:04.000
<v Speaker 1>all I got. Those are the only two stories I got.

0:53:04.719 --> 0:53:08.120
<v Speaker 1>It's only four bags, dude. One quick question, because I've

0:53:08.160 --> 0:53:10.960
<v Speaker 1>I've been asked about possibly doing a book. Um, and

0:53:11.120 --> 0:53:14.520
<v Speaker 1>had a conversation about it, and off, do you think

0:53:14.600 --> 0:53:21.960
<v Speaker 1>that's good? Um? What did you learn about yourself in

0:53:22.120 --> 0:53:25.400
<v Speaker 1>doing the book? Oh so much? And I'm not just

0:53:25.440 --> 0:53:27.360
<v Speaker 1>saying that it's you should do it. If you have

0:53:27.400 --> 0:53:30.240
<v Speaker 1>the opportunity to do it, you should do it, because

0:53:30.880 --> 0:53:33.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, you make your notes. Here's okay, here's what

0:53:33.120 --> 0:53:35.360
<v Speaker 1>I want the book to be. Here's what But it

0:53:35.480 --> 0:53:39.400
<v Speaker 1>sort of takes a life of its own. And um,

0:53:39.440 --> 0:53:42.160
<v Speaker 1>as I said, it's it's anecdotal stories about my life,

0:53:42.160 --> 0:53:45.640
<v Speaker 1>where I where I came from, and who I've become.

0:53:45.680 --> 0:53:48.719
<v Speaker 1>But it it almost, at least for me, almost took

0:53:48.719 --> 0:53:51.400
<v Speaker 1>on a spiritual thing in the third portion of the

0:53:51.440 --> 0:53:54.200
<v Speaker 1>book for me and talking about parenthood and my life

0:53:54.239 --> 0:53:58.560
<v Speaker 1>and and who I've become now. And I didn't really

0:53:58.600 --> 0:54:02.160
<v Speaker 1>initially plan on that to me, um, when I first

0:54:02.200 --> 0:54:05.160
<v Speaker 1>started out writing the book, but I sort of you

0:54:05.280 --> 0:54:08.360
<v Speaker 1>got into this and saw what journey it was taking

0:54:08.360 --> 0:54:11.319
<v Speaker 1>me on. So you know, if nothing else, I mean,

0:54:11.640 --> 0:54:13.360
<v Speaker 1>even if you're not going to publish it, do it

0:54:13.400 --> 0:54:16.200
<v Speaker 1>because you learn a lot of stuff about yourself. If

0:54:16.239 --> 0:54:20.240
<v Speaker 1>you're gonna be completely honest with the readers and yourself

0:54:20.280 --> 0:54:23.600
<v Speaker 1>to write it, um. And I think that's the only

0:54:23.640 --> 0:54:25.759
<v Speaker 1>way to do it, because then if not, then you're

0:54:25.800 --> 0:54:28.680
<v Speaker 1>just like, Okay, well what stories should I right now?

0:54:28.719 --> 0:54:32.200
<v Speaker 1>And you're trying to be um, but you know it's

0:54:32.239 --> 0:54:34.520
<v Speaker 1>to me too. I in reading a book that you

0:54:34.520 --> 0:54:37.719
<v Speaker 1>would write, I'd want to hear all those stories that

0:54:38.000 --> 0:54:39.759
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to hear about when you scored a

0:54:39.800 --> 0:54:42.799
<v Speaker 1>game winning goal and oh then we what did you know?

0:54:42.880 --> 0:54:45.240
<v Speaker 1>You want to hear all those other nuances that people

0:54:45.239 --> 0:54:50.080
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't know about. And um, sook a little bit that

0:54:50.080 --> 0:54:53.279
<v Speaker 1>I've dug into it. It is and I've done I've

0:54:53.320 --> 0:54:56.160
<v Speaker 1>done presentations for sportsmen's dinners and stuff like that. When

0:54:56.160 --> 0:55:00.239
<v Speaker 1>I do the presentations of like my hockey journey. Um,

0:55:00.280 --> 0:55:02.800
<v Speaker 1>there's certain things that I learned that I never knew

0:55:03.480 --> 0:55:05.960
<v Speaker 1>just in like you said, taking little segments of your life,

0:55:05.960 --> 0:55:08.080
<v Speaker 1>and when you line these up, you're like the first

0:55:08.080 --> 0:55:10.680
<v Speaker 1>one I did, I'm like, holy, I learned I was

0:55:10.880 --> 0:55:14.319
<v Speaker 1>I was responsible for very little of my success. Yeah,

0:55:14.760 --> 0:55:16.719
<v Speaker 1>I was like, oh my god. The people that have

0:55:16.760 --> 0:55:19.520
<v Speaker 1>touched my life from the age of thirteen, fifteen seventeen,

0:55:19.560 --> 0:55:23.280
<v Speaker 1>nineteen twenty four, all of these people down this list

0:55:23.640 --> 0:55:26.279
<v Speaker 1>have all elevated me in some way that I'm like,

0:55:26.800 --> 0:55:29.239
<v Speaker 1>I'm not anywhere without all of these people, Like I'm

0:55:29.280 --> 0:55:32.280
<v Speaker 1>responsible for ten percent of my success. So in doing

0:55:32.320 --> 0:55:35.160
<v Speaker 1>your journey, if even and somebody to even just encouraged

0:55:35.200 --> 0:55:36.880
<v Speaker 1>me to do it. A friend encouraged me to do it.

0:55:37.200 --> 0:55:41.040
<v Speaker 1>Sit down and write your book to understand yourself, and

0:55:41.080 --> 0:55:43.200
<v Speaker 1>then if you want to publish it or you want

0:55:43.239 --> 0:55:45.320
<v Speaker 1>to do something with it, do it. But just the

0:55:45.800 --> 0:55:48.600
<v Speaker 1>process of sitting down to write that you'll really find

0:55:49.200 --> 0:55:50.960
<v Speaker 1>a lot and learn a lot about yourself. So that's

0:55:50.960 --> 0:55:54.160
<v Speaker 1>why I asked that questions you should and you touch

0:55:54.239 --> 0:55:57.680
<v Speaker 1>upon people that are responsible for it. I even get

0:55:57.719 --> 0:56:01.640
<v Speaker 1>to that in the book where it's my brother, My

0:56:01.680 --> 0:56:04.279
<v Speaker 1>oldest brother, he's ten years older than me, went out

0:56:04.520 --> 0:56:06.719
<v Speaker 1>one night. He likes to go out as much as

0:56:06.719 --> 0:56:09.279
<v Speaker 1>any everybody, but doesn't. He's more of the like, I'll

0:56:09.280 --> 0:56:12.120
<v Speaker 1>stay home, doesn't really drink. That one out one night

0:56:12.200 --> 0:56:14.279
<v Speaker 1>when I was still in high school, to a bar

0:56:14.360 --> 0:56:16.640
<v Speaker 1>he'd never been in before in our hometown and hasn't

0:56:16.640 --> 0:56:18.960
<v Speaker 1>been in since, and saw a guy he went to

0:56:19.040 --> 0:56:21.080
<v Speaker 1>high school with. That guy said, what's going on with

0:56:21.080 --> 0:56:22.960
<v Speaker 1>the family? He said, Oh, Dan's a quarterback for the

0:56:23.040 --> 0:56:25.520
<v Speaker 1>high school. He goes, oh, I'm a graduate assistant coach

0:56:25.560 --> 0:56:27.520
<v Speaker 1>at University North Carolina. Haven't sent a tap there. I

0:56:27.520 --> 0:56:29.840
<v Speaker 1>send the tate the University of North Carolina. I get recruited.

0:56:29.840 --> 0:56:31.799
<v Speaker 1>I got a University of North Carolina. My senior year

0:56:31.800 --> 0:56:34.959
<v Speaker 1>in North Carolina, I meet a producer from MTV because

0:56:35.040 --> 0:56:37.680
<v Speaker 1>Janet Jackson was in concert there. I keep that guy's card.

0:56:37.760 --> 0:56:39.879
<v Speaker 1>I moved to l A after graduation. Call that guy.

0:56:40.120 --> 0:56:41.640
<v Speaker 1>He hooks me up with a person in l A

0:56:41.719 --> 0:56:44.680
<v Speaker 1>working for MTV. That in turn, I start working as

0:56:44.680 --> 0:56:46.720
<v Speaker 1>a p A at MTV. I'd hand in the treatment

0:56:46.760 --> 0:56:49.600
<v Speaker 1>for MTV Sports. I'm the host of MTV Sports the Resident,

0:56:50.120 --> 0:56:52.680
<v Speaker 1>and I always saw my brother. I'm like, if you

0:56:52.800 --> 0:56:56.560
<v Speaker 1>never went to that bar that night and saw Phil, Like,

0:56:57.400 --> 0:56:59.480
<v Speaker 1>what journey? What would have happened with me? You know,

0:57:00.239 --> 0:57:03.400
<v Speaker 1>entire journey culminated with being on the How Men Think podcast?

0:57:03.960 --> 0:57:06.560
<v Speaker 1>Exactly if your brother doesn't go to the bar, we're

0:57:06.560 --> 0:57:10.440
<v Speaker 1>not sitting here today. That's right, that's right, we are.

0:57:10.600 --> 0:57:13.799
<v Speaker 1>We are the cherry on top. I can tell you Dan,

0:57:13.840 --> 0:57:16.720
<v Speaker 1>when you said it's a it's a journey of self exploration,

0:57:16.800 --> 0:57:21.280
<v Speaker 1>exploration Brooke. I mean, you couldn't pick better keywords for Brooks.

0:57:21.320 --> 0:57:23.320
<v Speaker 1>His eyes lit up as soon as we sign off.

0:57:23.320 --> 0:57:26.000
<v Speaker 1>Now he's gonna take out his typewriter, slacking all the

0:57:26.040 --> 0:57:31.280
<v Speaker 1>thing started. But I'm telling Dmitri the fact that you

0:57:31.320 --> 0:57:37.040
<v Speaker 1>even said typewriter is beautiful. I did that on purpose.

0:57:37.040 --> 0:57:38.360
<v Speaker 1>I'm trying to make fun of you for being in

0:58:56.680 --> 0:58:59.320
<v Speaker 1>reading it and cool stories like that, but it's it's

0:58:59.360 --> 0:59:01.320
<v Speaker 1>it's actually more than that. And as he was saying,

0:59:01.360 --> 0:59:03.520
<v Speaker 1>like the self exploration and stuff like that, you're gonna

0:59:03.560 --> 0:59:05.760
<v Speaker 1>learn stuff about yourself and you're gonna you're gonna think.

0:59:05.800 --> 0:59:07.640
<v Speaker 1>It's gonna make you think about other things. It's not

0:59:07.720 --> 0:59:09.640
<v Speaker 1>just I want to read about Dan or I don't

0:59:09.680 --> 0:59:12.720
<v Speaker 1>want to. There's a lot in it um and so

0:59:23.560 --> 0:59:25.200
<v Speaker 1>a book just about me. I even told them. I

0:59:25.280 --> 0:59:28.360
<v Speaker 1>want to write something that I hopefully think readers can

0:59:28.440 --> 0:59:31.520
<v Speaker 1>relate to and sort of see their own lives within

0:59:31.600 --> 0:59:34.640
<v Speaker 1>it and maybe see similarities there with certain things they're
