0:00:00.480 --> 0:00:04.280
<v Speaker 1>Hell I Suck At Dating with de Nongler and Dared

0:00:04.360 --> 0:00:10.880
<v Speaker 1>Haven and I heard radio podcast What's going on? Everyone?

0:00:10.920 --> 0:00:14.120
<v Speaker 1>Welcome to an all new episode of Help I Suck

0:00:14.320 --> 0:00:18.040
<v Speaker 1>At Dating. We're near the end of March. We are

0:00:18.640 --> 0:00:25.040
<v Speaker 1>recording one of our first early morning episodes, and the

0:00:25.079 --> 0:00:28.240
<v Speaker 1>only thing I can think about right now is how

0:00:28.320 --> 0:00:31.440
<v Speaker 1>badly I need to go number two because mornings are

0:00:32.120 --> 0:00:37.640
<v Speaker 1>almost exclusively confined to my number two times. And this

0:00:37.720 --> 0:00:41.320
<v Speaker 1>early morning. When I say early, it's not early, it's

0:00:41.400 --> 0:00:46.000
<v Speaker 1>nine am, you dedicate the entire morning. Listen. My point

0:00:46.040 --> 0:00:48.319
<v Speaker 1>is I don't get anything done until after that's all

0:00:48.360 --> 0:00:50.800
<v Speaker 1>taken care of. And this is we're still in that

0:00:50.880 --> 0:00:54.520
<v Speaker 1>pre like you know, pre phase right now. There are

0:00:54.560 --> 0:00:57.000
<v Speaker 1>mornings like mornings that I have to run around and

0:00:57.040 --> 0:00:59.240
<v Speaker 1>then I don't end up going, and then because I

0:00:59.280 --> 0:01:01.480
<v Speaker 1>hold it in, I don't go till later that night.

0:01:01.720 --> 0:01:04.959
<v Speaker 1>My whole day's ruined. It's ruined. Well it's too elad

0:01:05.000 --> 0:01:06.559
<v Speaker 1>for me to say it's ruined, but I can feel

0:01:06.640 --> 0:01:10.319
<v Speaker 1>it festering within me right now. Um So, if I

0:01:10.319 --> 0:01:11.840
<v Speaker 1>get at the Lancey, if I get a little crabby

0:01:11.880 --> 0:01:14.760
<v Speaker 1>at all during this episode, just realized that I'm withholding

0:01:15.400 --> 0:01:19.039
<v Speaker 1>a lot of things. Well, I mean, hey, full disclosure,

0:01:19.319 --> 0:01:21.720
<v Speaker 1>this is a podcast. You can turn your video off

0:01:21.840 --> 0:01:26.440
<v Speaker 1>and just do what you need to do. I mean, no,

0:01:26.680 --> 0:01:28.480
<v Speaker 1>the audio would have to be off. I would like

0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:30.679
<v Speaker 1>to burn the computer afterwards. There's a lot that would

0:01:30.680 --> 0:01:33.399
<v Speaker 1>have to go into that. I appreciate it. I appreciate

0:01:33.400 --> 0:01:34.679
<v Speaker 1>the advice that you're trying to work with me with.

0:01:35.720 --> 0:01:41.319
<v Speaker 1>In fact, Klinklin, Um, I I don't not the only one.

0:01:41.600 --> 0:01:43.320
<v Speaker 1>Let's just let's just stay on the subject to number

0:01:43.319 --> 0:01:44.920
<v Speaker 1>two is for a little bit, I know, not the

0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:49.960
<v Speaker 1>only one, Um that takes maybe like abnormally long time

0:01:49.960 --> 0:01:52.800
<v Speaker 1>in the bathroom. Do you take a long time in

0:01:52.800 --> 0:01:56.560
<v Speaker 1>the bathroom? Oh yeah, Ashley always as she'll she'll knock sometimes,

0:01:56.600 --> 0:01:59.400
<v Speaker 1>which makes me so angry. She knows that I'm just

0:01:59.440 --> 0:02:02.000
<v Speaker 1>on my phone own and that's listen. I'm a dad. Now,

0:02:02.320 --> 0:02:04.520
<v Speaker 1>I have an excuse. I am on the toilet for

0:02:04.520 --> 0:02:07.000
<v Speaker 1>forty five minutes because it's it's my well maybe not

0:02:07.080 --> 0:02:10.240
<v Speaker 1>forty five minutes is dramatic, but twenty minutes, which feels

0:02:10.240 --> 0:02:12.440
<v Speaker 1>like forty five minutes when you're in the bathroom, but

0:02:12.600 --> 0:02:15.240
<v Speaker 1>I'm that's my quiet time. I have the fan on,

0:02:15.400 --> 0:02:19.600
<v Speaker 1>so there's ambient noise. So it's just it's I literally

0:02:19.600 --> 0:02:22.519
<v Speaker 1>turned into a baby. When we put Dawson in the crib,

0:02:22.680 --> 0:02:24.600
<v Speaker 1>we play white noise because it makes him feel like

0:02:24.600 --> 0:02:26.960
<v Speaker 1>he's in the womb. That's the bathroom fan to me,

0:02:27.200 --> 0:02:29.480
<v Speaker 1>I go in from the bathroom fan on just kind

0:02:29.480 --> 0:02:31.240
<v Speaker 1>of like zone out, take a breather, I have a

0:02:31.240 --> 0:02:34.679
<v Speaker 1>moment to myself. There's no noise. It's great and uh

0:02:34.720 --> 0:02:38.400
<v Speaker 1>and then Ashley always just god damn it. She'll just like,

0:02:38.480 --> 0:02:41.639
<v Speaker 1>come not and she'd be like, you okay in there.

0:02:41.639 --> 0:02:43.240
<v Speaker 1>You've been in there for a while. And I'm like, Ashley,

0:02:43.280 --> 0:02:46.799
<v Speaker 1>do we have to go through this constantly? Just I'll

0:02:46.840 --> 0:02:49.880
<v Speaker 1>be right out. I'll be out. It's great too, because

0:02:49.880 --> 0:02:52.840
<v Speaker 1>it's like I'm a grown person. Of course I'm okay.

0:02:52.960 --> 0:02:56.040
<v Speaker 1>Like if if I wasn't okay, I would scream for

0:02:56.080 --> 0:02:58.120
<v Speaker 1>help or something like that. It's it's good to know

0:02:58.160 --> 0:03:00.280
<v Speaker 1>that I'm not alone in this fight because kay Lynn

0:03:00.480 --> 0:03:02.840
<v Speaker 1>Um it's always given me crap for how long I

0:03:02.880 --> 0:03:04.400
<v Speaker 1>am and she she used to give me a lot

0:03:04.400 --> 0:03:06.120
<v Speaker 1>of craps. She's learned to accept the fact that I'm

0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:08.520
<v Speaker 1>gonna be in there for thirty minutes. Um. And every

0:03:08.560 --> 0:03:10.880
<v Speaker 1>time I hear and a guy like say that they're

0:03:10.919 --> 0:03:13.200
<v Speaker 1>in a similar situation as me, it always like vindicates

0:03:13.240 --> 0:03:14.919
<v Speaker 1>me a lot, you know. Like I was watching a

0:03:14.919 --> 0:03:17.079
<v Speaker 1>shark tank the other day and Mark Cuban was like, listen,

0:03:17.400 --> 0:03:18.920
<v Speaker 1>if you're not on the toilet for long enough for

0:03:18.960 --> 0:03:20.840
<v Speaker 1>your legs to fall asleep, you're doing it wrong. And

0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:23.400
<v Speaker 1>I was like, Mark Cuban is speaking my love language

0:03:23.480 --> 0:03:26.120
<v Speaker 1>right now. Um. So, like I said, it always indicates

0:03:26.120 --> 0:03:29.079
<v Speaker 1>me a little bit. But let's number two. If you

0:03:29.080 --> 0:03:30.799
<v Speaker 1>want unlet's you want to stay on it. No, no, no,

0:03:31.040 --> 0:03:33.040
<v Speaker 1>just one last comment. It's really funny to me how

0:03:33.120 --> 0:03:36.200
<v Speaker 1>long sometimes I take at home and then how quickly

0:03:36.800 --> 0:03:39.800
<v Speaker 1>I do my business in a public bathroom, especially if

0:03:39.840 --> 0:03:41.960
<v Speaker 1>it's a one stall bathroom. When I walk in there,

0:03:42.160 --> 0:03:45.040
<v Speaker 1>it's like, okay, dude, I'm not joking. I still have

0:03:45.160 --> 0:03:49.440
<v Speaker 1>a little bit of insecurity about going the bathroom. When

0:03:49.680 --> 0:03:51.960
<v Speaker 1>even I'm married, it doesn't even matter. But when girls

0:03:52.000 --> 0:03:54.520
<v Speaker 1>are near the bathroom, I'm like, oh Jesus, if I

0:03:54.640 --> 0:03:57.040
<v Speaker 1>blow this thing up and it stinks, and they know,

0:03:57.200 --> 0:04:00.640
<v Speaker 1>like I walk out smells and they just look at me,

0:04:00.680 --> 0:04:03.120
<v Speaker 1>and I'm like, you know, what happened. Like, I'll just

0:04:03.160 --> 0:04:05.640
<v Speaker 1>go cry myself in the office because the thing is

0:04:05.640 --> 0:04:08.640
<v Speaker 1>at Audrey's full disclosure. It's a one stall bathroom and

0:04:08.680 --> 0:04:10.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm there all the time, right, so sometimes you know,

0:04:10.440 --> 0:04:12.160
<v Speaker 1>I gotta do my business. So I go in there

0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:14.880
<v Speaker 1>and there's only tables like four ft away. I'm like,

0:04:15.120 --> 0:04:17.400
<v Speaker 1>so dude, Like, I'm like, okay, if I do this

0:04:17.480 --> 0:04:20.360
<v Speaker 1>quickly enough, they'll just think I'm peeing, and I do.

0:04:20.440 --> 0:04:22.880
<v Speaker 1>I do the double flush, Like I'll go in there,

0:04:23.120 --> 0:04:27.920
<v Speaker 1>do my business, flush, then you know, proceed with the

0:04:27.960 --> 0:04:31.120
<v Speaker 1>wiping and then flush again. You know, try to get

0:04:31.160 --> 0:04:34.039
<v Speaker 1>the smell away as quickly as possible. Gotcha, got you? Yeah,

0:04:34.400 --> 0:04:37.120
<v Speaker 1>that's that's a good style, a good method. I'm a

0:04:37.120 --> 0:04:39.960
<v Speaker 1>single flusher personally. It's it's the worst two is when

0:04:39.960 --> 0:04:42.080
<v Speaker 1>you go and expecting it to be quick and then

0:04:42.240 --> 0:04:44.520
<v Speaker 1>you know, fast forward twenty minutes later, you're you've made

0:04:44.520 --> 0:04:46.920
<v Speaker 1>the line of twenty people out the door, and then

0:04:46.920 --> 0:04:48.320
<v Speaker 1>you have to do the walk of shame when you

0:04:48.360 --> 0:04:49.920
<v Speaker 1>when you leave the back and you see the door

0:04:50.000 --> 0:04:53.720
<v Speaker 1>handle jiggling and you're like, Jesus God, just please go

0:04:53.800 --> 0:04:57.640
<v Speaker 1>away far away. Yeah, yeah, I help, I suck it.

0:04:57.720 --> 0:05:01.000
<v Speaker 1>Go into the bathroom in a timely manner. Um. Anyways,

0:05:01.200 --> 0:05:04.760
<v Speaker 1>especially episode for everyone out here today Jared and I, well,

0:05:04.880 --> 0:05:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Jared watched a little snippet of a TV show, Naked Attraction.

0:05:07.880 --> 0:05:11.760
<v Speaker 1>We're gonna talk about the craziest I've have no pun intended.

0:05:12.240 --> 0:05:15.320
<v Speaker 1>I've ever seen this show. I don't know when it airs,

0:05:15.680 --> 0:05:17.880
<v Speaker 1>I don't know where it airs. I just saw it.

0:05:17.920 --> 0:05:20.600
<v Speaker 1>Our producer texted it to us, and I watched it,

0:05:21.279 --> 0:05:24.520
<v Speaker 1>and I can't stop thinking about it. So we're gonna

0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:25.920
<v Speaker 1>talk about that in a second. Beyond that, we got

0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:28.960
<v Speaker 1>some emails, we've got some headlines, and it's just gonna

0:05:28.960 --> 0:05:31.640
<v Speaker 1>be us today, today, this week, it's just gonna be

0:05:31.680 --> 0:05:35.520
<v Speaker 1>the two boys. We've exhausted every single girl that wants

0:05:35.520 --> 0:05:38.080
<v Speaker 1>to come on this podcast. It's because we couldn't get

0:05:38.080 --> 0:05:40.000
<v Speaker 1>girls that would want to talk about poop and naked

0:05:40.040 --> 0:05:42.400
<v Speaker 1>attraction with us. So we're not even three months into

0:05:43.080 --> 0:05:45.920
<v Speaker 1>two and we're already out of guests. The new format

0:05:45.960 --> 0:05:48.520
<v Speaker 1>was fun all lasted, um, but it was doomed from

0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:52.240
<v Speaker 1>the start. Let's be honest, alright about this Naked Attraction.

0:05:52.279 --> 0:05:55.160
<v Speaker 1>So so one of the producers for our show, well,

0:05:55.200 --> 0:05:57.640
<v Speaker 1>our boss pretty much. She texted us. It was like,

0:05:57.720 --> 0:06:00.240
<v Speaker 1>check out this new show. It's called Naked Attraction, talked

0:06:00.240 --> 0:06:01.839
<v Speaker 1>about on the podcast because I think it's a good

0:06:01.839 --> 0:06:05.520
<v Speaker 1>content and this happens routinely obviously, and uh so I

0:06:05.560 --> 0:06:07.240
<v Speaker 1>was like, all right, cool, let me, you know, watch

0:06:07.320 --> 0:06:08.920
<v Speaker 1>an episode of let's see what it is. Because they

0:06:08.920 --> 0:06:10.520
<v Speaker 1>only sent us one episode. I don't even think it's

0:06:10.520 --> 0:06:15.400
<v Speaker 1>aired yet. Um dude, So this show, it's called Naked Attraction.

0:06:15.920 --> 0:06:19.960
<v Speaker 1>It's like The Bachelor or Bachelorette meets Naked and Afraid,

0:06:20.160 --> 0:06:23.720
<v Speaker 1>except there is no black box. There is no blurring

0:06:23.920 --> 0:06:25.760
<v Speaker 1>of anything. I don't know if this is the way

0:06:25.760 --> 0:06:31.000
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna go when it's nationally broadcasted. So apparently it's

0:06:31.000 --> 0:06:35.080
<v Speaker 1>gonna air on Channel four. I don't know where this is.

0:06:35.160 --> 0:06:37.120
<v Speaker 1>It's got to be in the UK. They all had accents,

0:06:37.200 --> 0:06:41.000
<v Speaker 1>so it has to be in London. And so the

0:06:41.000 --> 0:06:43.400
<v Speaker 1>show is listen. It was one dude and it was

0:06:43.480 --> 0:06:46.839
<v Speaker 1>I think eight women. Bro. So they're behind this box

0:06:46.839 --> 0:06:49.880
<v Speaker 1>so you can't see them, and then he talks about

0:06:50.240 --> 0:06:54.320
<v Speaker 1>you know, what he's looking for and a girl physically, emotionally,

0:06:54.560 --> 0:06:56.880
<v Speaker 1>all these things, and what it is is you judge

0:06:56.880 --> 0:06:59.400
<v Speaker 1>someone by how good they look naked. I'm not joking.

0:06:59.600 --> 0:07:01.440
<v Speaker 1>So the box, So they're in a box, and then

0:07:01.480 --> 0:07:05.279
<v Speaker 1>it's like, okay, raise so we can see the lower

0:07:05.360 --> 0:07:08.200
<v Speaker 1>half of their body. Dude, the box rises up to

0:07:08.279 --> 0:07:13.000
<v Speaker 1>their waist. You see everything. I'm not joking. Every vagina

0:07:13.120 --> 0:07:16.280
<v Speaker 1>is out there just to the world. And he's looking

0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:18.880
<v Speaker 1>there talking about him. He's like, oh, yeah, you know

0:07:19.040 --> 0:07:21.600
<v Speaker 1>this one. You know I could tell by you know,

0:07:21.960 --> 0:07:24.880
<v Speaker 1>the way her legs look, she's good shape, or like,

0:07:24.920 --> 0:07:28.240
<v Speaker 1>oh I like someone with curves. And they're just talking

0:07:28.320 --> 0:07:33.160
<v Speaker 1>outwardly about this while all these women's vaginas are out

0:07:33.200 --> 0:07:37.640
<v Speaker 1>in the open. Dude, it's insane. When when it raised,

0:07:37.640 --> 0:07:39.600
<v Speaker 1>I was like, okay, it's they're gonna be in bathing

0:07:39.680 --> 0:07:42.840
<v Speaker 1>suits or it will be blurred out like on Naked

0:07:42.840 --> 0:07:46.920
<v Speaker 1>and Afraid. Nope, you see everything. And dude, when you

0:07:47.000 --> 0:07:51.280
<v Speaker 1>see a vagina, just a vagina, like from the waist down,

0:07:51.520 --> 0:07:59.360
<v Speaker 1>no full body, it's listen, it's obviously attractive, but it's

0:07:59.520 --> 0:08:03.960
<v Speaker 1>like you're definitely not like it's not a turn on,

0:08:04.080 --> 0:08:06.040
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. I mean, you're just looking

0:08:06.160 --> 0:08:08.400
<v Speaker 1>at the lower half of the body. And you know

0:08:08.440 --> 0:08:13.320
<v Speaker 1>what's funny is that I found myself watching this show thinking, Okay,

0:08:13.600 --> 0:08:17.000
<v Speaker 1>I guess what what do I like? Because dude, they

0:08:17.000 --> 0:08:22.080
<v Speaker 1>were describing in detail like it was crazy because like

0:08:22.120 --> 0:08:27.480
<v Speaker 1>obviously summer, how do I phrase this? Um? You know

0:08:27.520 --> 0:08:31.840
<v Speaker 1>how like a belly button hasn't any or an outing? Hm, well,

0:08:31.880 --> 0:08:35.040
<v Speaker 1>I think that that might also pertain two different parts

0:08:35.080 --> 0:08:36.960
<v Speaker 1>of the body. And they were talking about that, and

0:08:36.960 --> 0:08:38.840
<v Speaker 1>then I thought about in my head, like what do

0:08:39.000 --> 0:08:42.560
<v Speaker 1>I prefer? Uh, it was crazy, and then like he

0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:45.679
<v Speaker 1>eliminates two women based on that, and then they raise

0:08:45.800 --> 0:08:48.600
<v Speaker 1>it up and then they walk out and hug and

0:08:48.640 --> 0:08:52.440
<v Speaker 1>the woman is fully naked, so he sees like what

0:08:52.520 --> 0:08:56.320
<v Speaker 1>he lost out on and then they then the girls

0:08:56.360 --> 0:08:59.040
<v Speaker 1>like the next round, they turn around so you see

0:08:59.040 --> 0:09:02.800
<v Speaker 1>their butts and like he's like talking like, oh, this

0:09:02.840 --> 0:09:06.400
<v Speaker 1>one is like I really like this one, dude. It's

0:09:06.440 --> 0:09:08.439
<v Speaker 1>so crazy. And then of course, like they raise it

0:09:08.520 --> 0:09:11.359
<v Speaker 1>up to their neck so you see you know, boobies,

0:09:11.600 --> 0:09:14.960
<v Speaker 1>and then you know, finally he gets down to like

0:09:15.000 --> 0:09:17.839
<v Speaker 1>the final person and then he chooses one and then

0:09:18.000 --> 0:09:20.360
<v Speaker 1>it gets lifted and you see the whole face and

0:09:20.400 --> 0:09:24.480
<v Speaker 1>you see what he picked. And then they do this

0:09:24.520 --> 0:09:28.000
<v Speaker 1>for guys too, because in in the previews because this

0:09:28.040 --> 0:09:30.080
<v Speaker 1>episode was just about a guy with like eight women,

0:09:30.120 --> 0:09:32.440
<v Speaker 1>but the previews the next one is one woman who

0:09:32.480 --> 0:09:35.480
<v Speaker 1>picks the guys and there's like eight dudes. Dude, just

0:09:35.920 --> 0:09:40.079
<v Speaker 1>penis everywhere out and about flagellent penis, as Eastern put

0:09:40.080 --> 0:09:45.360
<v Speaker 1>it earlier, just hanging out out in the wind. Crazy.

0:09:45.480 --> 0:09:49.000
<v Speaker 1>I gotta be honest with you, Jared, Um, I lied

0:09:49.040 --> 0:09:50.480
<v Speaker 1>to you, and I didn't mean to lie to you,

0:09:50.640 --> 0:09:53.880
<v Speaker 1>But I have seen the show before. UM, so I

0:09:53.960 --> 0:09:56.440
<v Speaker 1>appreciate you explaining it to everyone out there because the

0:09:56.440 --> 0:10:02.240
<v Speaker 1>listeners needed to hear that, because it's pretty crazy. Um.

0:10:02.240 --> 0:10:05.360
<v Speaker 1>And the reason I've seen the show is my buddy

0:10:05.480 --> 0:10:08.120
<v Speaker 1>produces television in London, funny enough, and when I was

0:10:08.120 --> 0:10:09.480
<v Speaker 1>out there visiting, he was like, you got to see

0:10:09.480 --> 0:10:11.760
<v Speaker 1>this show. It's the craziest thing in the world. And

0:10:11.800 --> 0:10:16.680
<v Speaker 1>it legitimately is one of the craziest shows I've seen

0:10:16.679 --> 0:10:20.440
<v Speaker 1>on TV. Because you're right, it's like, hey, you're seeing

0:10:20.480 --> 0:10:23.959
<v Speaker 1>way more than you're used to seeing, Like, like, well,

0:10:23.960 --> 0:10:26.320
<v Speaker 1>who's the audience, you know what I mean? Like, I

0:10:26.320 --> 0:10:29.439
<v Speaker 1>guess people like us, Like what if a kids just

0:10:29.520 --> 0:10:31.600
<v Speaker 1>randomly scrolling through the channels and they pop on channel

0:10:31.640 --> 0:10:33.360
<v Speaker 1>four and allmus and they see a big penis in

0:10:33.400 --> 0:10:36.160
<v Speaker 1>their face. But how can Channel four not blur this?

0:10:36.320 --> 0:10:40.800
<v Speaker 1>That's my question because we got, you know, an advanced

0:10:40.800 --> 0:10:42.840
<v Speaker 1>copy or whatever you want to say. We didn't watch

0:10:42.840 --> 0:10:44.920
<v Speaker 1>it on cable, so like on cable, is everything gonna

0:10:44.920 --> 0:10:48.840
<v Speaker 1>be blurred out? Because that makes the world. You know,

0:10:48.880 --> 0:10:50.880
<v Speaker 1>America was founded by a bunch of prudes, right, I

0:10:50.960 --> 0:10:53.080
<v Speaker 1>think that they're just a lot more free with their

0:10:53.120 --> 0:10:59.760
<v Speaker 1>sexuality over there. Yeah. Maybe. Um, Jared, I've got a

0:10:59.840 --> 0:11:02.800
<v Speaker 1>question for you that Hannah eloquently wrote in the chat.

0:11:02.920 --> 0:11:04.480
<v Speaker 1>Would you be able to tell whether or not you'd

0:11:04.480 --> 0:11:08.000
<v Speaker 1>be attracted to someone just by looking at the lady parts? No?

0:11:09.000 --> 0:11:15.000
<v Speaker 1>M absolutely not, no way, because I you know, listen,

0:11:15.160 --> 0:11:21.160
<v Speaker 1>I love all lady parts, you know. Uh, And I'm like, no,

0:11:21.559 --> 0:11:25.440
<v Speaker 1>there's no way. All right, Hannah pop up here for

0:11:25.480 --> 0:11:31.600
<v Speaker 1>a of course. Second, would you, as a woman, if

0:11:31.640 --> 0:11:33.520
<v Speaker 1>you went on this show, do you think you would

0:11:33.559 --> 0:11:37.280
<v Speaker 1>be able to tell how attractive someone was just by

0:11:37.320 --> 0:11:45.000
<v Speaker 1>seeing their penis? No, I'd be disgusted. Yeah, penises are disgusting. Yeah.

0:11:45.200 --> 0:11:47.520
<v Speaker 1>I just think I think it's really interesting because it's

0:11:47.559 --> 0:11:50.360
<v Speaker 1>the complete opposite of Love is Blind, which is super

0:11:50.400 --> 0:11:54.640
<v Speaker 1>popular right now, where people get married without even seeing

0:11:54.640 --> 0:11:57.000
<v Speaker 1>each other. And this is the complete opposite, where people

0:11:57.440 --> 0:12:01.679
<v Speaker 1>pick their person based on just what they see. So

0:12:01.760 --> 0:12:03.839
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what I'd rather do. Probably love is

0:12:03.880 --> 0:12:08.160
<v Speaker 1>blind A thousand percent love is blood. I might this

0:12:08.240 --> 0:12:10.600
<v Speaker 1>might be pretty um ignoring to me to say, but

0:12:10.760 --> 0:12:15.120
<v Speaker 1>I do think, based off of basically no information and

0:12:15.120 --> 0:12:19.600
<v Speaker 1>and no forethought before saying this, that it is easier

0:12:19.600 --> 0:12:23.800
<v Speaker 1>to tell whether you'll be physically attracted to a woman

0:12:24.120 --> 0:12:26.800
<v Speaker 1>by looking at her bottom half than it will be

0:12:26.880 --> 0:12:32.160
<v Speaker 1>I'm looking at a man's lower half. You know, I

0:12:32.200 --> 0:12:35.199
<v Speaker 1>think a woman's lower half is more indicative of their

0:12:35.240 --> 0:12:38.280
<v Speaker 1>upper half than a man's lower half is. I also think,

0:12:39.000 --> 0:12:41.160
<v Speaker 1>you know, obviously we're two straight white men, so we're

0:12:41.280 --> 0:12:46.440
<v Speaker 1>obviously attracted to women. But I agree with you. I

0:12:46.480 --> 0:12:50.160
<v Speaker 1>do think a woman's body is much more beautiful than

0:12:50.200 --> 0:12:52.160
<v Speaker 1>a man's body. Well, that's not what I'm saying, That's

0:12:52.160 --> 0:12:54.199
<v Speaker 1>that's what I'm saying. I'm saying the lower half is

0:12:54.760 --> 0:12:56.800
<v Speaker 1>more telling of what the upper half will look like.

0:12:56.920 --> 0:13:00.280
<v Speaker 1>The men's lower half is telling to addict you. But

0:13:00.320 --> 0:13:02.680
<v Speaker 1>I think you learned you could you could make a

0:13:02.760 --> 0:13:05.480
<v Speaker 1>more accurate guess by just seeing the girl's lower half

0:13:05.520 --> 0:13:09.280
<v Speaker 1>than you could the guy's lower half. I listen, I'm

0:13:09.320 --> 0:13:12.800
<v Speaker 1>a somewhat secure man, like I feel like I'm not

0:13:13.600 --> 0:13:17.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, I feel like I have certain physical good

0:13:17.160 --> 0:13:21.400
<v Speaker 1>qualities about me that I'm confident about. But dude, if

0:13:21.440 --> 0:13:24.520
<v Speaker 1>somebody was judging me by my lower half, do you know, Harry,

0:13:24.960 --> 0:13:28.360
<v Speaker 1>my thighs are Yeah, That's what I'm saying. Like, it's

0:13:28.440 --> 0:13:30.320
<v Speaker 1>just I remember there was a there was a group

0:13:30.400 --> 0:13:32.400
<v Speaker 1>date on our season of The bachelorrette it was a

0:13:32.480 --> 0:13:34.760
<v Speaker 1>sumo wrestling date, and the guys that went on the

0:13:34.800 --> 0:13:39.320
<v Speaker 1>date had to wear these pretty much thongs, and uh, dude,

0:13:39.600 --> 0:13:41.280
<v Speaker 1>I remember Ben and I were looking at each other

0:13:41.640 --> 0:13:44.800
<v Speaker 1>and we're like, if we I'm not joking. Both of

0:13:44.880 --> 0:13:47.120
<v Speaker 1>us were like, if we get picked on this date,

0:13:47.240 --> 0:13:49.600
<v Speaker 1>like we have to, we're gonna shave each other's asses

0:13:49.600 --> 0:13:52.360
<v Speaker 1>in the next five minutes because then we cannot go

0:13:52.400 --> 0:13:56.480
<v Speaker 1>on national television. Hannah literally just dropped after. So you're

0:13:56.480 --> 0:13:59.360
<v Speaker 1>proving my point for me because I'm in the same

0:13:59.400 --> 0:14:02.480
<v Speaker 1>boat as you. I'm not as hairy as you, um,

0:14:02.600 --> 0:14:05.320
<v Speaker 1>but I have my faults as well, I would say,

0:14:05.440 --> 0:14:08.040
<v Speaker 1>from from the waist down. Jared in my opinion, you're

0:14:08.160 --> 0:14:11.520
<v Speaker 1>a two. From the waist to the nipples, you're probably

0:14:11.679 --> 0:14:14.600
<v Speaker 1>a four. But from the nipples up you're you're a

0:14:14.600 --> 0:14:17.720
<v Speaker 1>hard tent. From the nipples up, you're a hard tent,

0:14:18.559 --> 0:14:21.600
<v Speaker 1>in my opinion. I I'm not maybe to that same degree,

0:14:21.680 --> 0:14:23.800
<v Speaker 1>but I'm close. You know, I'm like an eight tow

0:14:23.920 --> 0:14:26.320
<v Speaker 1>down to the nipples and then a five down to

0:14:26.360 --> 0:14:28.760
<v Speaker 1>the waist, and then it's a one from there down.

0:14:30.080 --> 0:14:34.240
<v Speaker 1>And that's my point is I would still consider us

0:14:34.280 --> 0:14:37.920
<v Speaker 1>generally conventionally attractive guys. If you always saw our lower

0:14:37.920 --> 0:14:40.320
<v Speaker 1>half of our bodies, you would never guess that because

0:14:40.320 --> 0:14:43.880
<v Speaker 1>the lower half of our bodies are disgusting. Yeah, I

0:14:43.920 --> 0:14:46.320
<v Speaker 1>almost want someone like yourself to go on this show,

0:14:46.600 --> 0:14:48.920
<v Speaker 1>so you know, because I'll tell you what. We can

0:14:48.960 --> 0:14:51.840
<v Speaker 1>have our own little fake show right now. See I

0:14:51.920 --> 0:14:57.520
<v Speaker 1>just in zoom, just venue man, just recording, dude. And also,

0:14:57.640 --> 0:15:02.480
<v Speaker 1>like I give because I gotta be honest as a guy.

0:15:03.320 --> 0:15:07.680
<v Speaker 1>I haven't seen too many other guys penises. I'm gonna

0:15:07.720 --> 0:15:10.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm not gonna lie like in everyday life locker room.

0:15:10.720 --> 0:15:12.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, I played sports of my life, but it's

0:15:12.240 --> 0:15:16.000
<v Speaker 1>never been like that, Like I've never you know, got like, uh,

0:15:16.040 --> 0:15:17.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, been the locker room showered with other guys.

0:15:17.840 --> 0:15:21.520
<v Speaker 1>So my point being is that the only other male

0:15:21.600 --> 0:15:25.600
<v Speaker 1>genitals that I've really seen are from either porn or

0:15:25.640 --> 0:15:31.560
<v Speaker 1>in these shows that the guy's got a ridiculous, ridiculous knob,

0:15:31.760 --> 0:15:34.200
<v Speaker 1>Like what was that show, Hannah, Maybe you don't remember

0:15:34.240 --> 0:15:37.360
<v Speaker 1>what it was, where it was everybody paused. It came

0:15:37.360 --> 0:15:40.600
<v Speaker 1>out like a year ago, and everybody paused sex life.

0:15:40.640 --> 0:15:43.080
<v Speaker 1>That's right. There was like this whole thing on Instagram

0:15:43.160 --> 0:15:47.520
<v Speaker 1>but like pause as episode one twelve minutes and thirteen seconds,

0:15:47.560 --> 0:15:50.920
<v Speaker 1>and then I, being naive, saw this all over social media.

0:15:50.920 --> 0:15:52.080
<v Speaker 1>It was like, all right, I gotta get you. I

0:15:52.080 --> 0:15:53.920
<v Speaker 1>gotta see this, I gotta see what everybody's talking about.

0:15:54.000 --> 0:15:56.440
<v Speaker 1>And it's literally just a dude in a shower with

0:15:56.520 --> 0:15:59.800
<v Speaker 1>like a thirteen inch flatshument penis. It was. It was,

0:16:00.000 --> 0:16:02.720
<v Speaker 1>It's like crazy, So away, my point being is those

0:16:02.760 --> 0:16:05.240
<v Speaker 1>are the only really other male genitals that I've seen.

0:16:05.520 --> 0:16:08.000
<v Speaker 1>So as a guy, you know, listen, I'm confident in

0:16:08.000 --> 0:16:10.400
<v Speaker 1>my area, but what are I what do I What

0:16:10.440 --> 0:16:15.000
<v Speaker 1>am I saying? Oh? I said flash flacid? Thank you? Anyway,

0:16:15.040 --> 0:16:17.240
<v Speaker 1>I digress. This is a weird conversation, this is a

0:16:17.280 --> 0:16:20.880
<v Speaker 1>weird podcast being let's just get down and dirty anyway,

0:16:20.920 --> 0:16:24.880
<v Speaker 1>as a you know, listen, I'm confident in you know myself,

0:16:26.560 --> 0:16:29.520
<v Speaker 1>having said that, there is no way in hell that

0:16:29.600 --> 0:16:31.040
<v Speaker 1>if they were like, hey, listen, I want you to

0:16:31.080 --> 0:16:33.560
<v Speaker 1>go on national television, just pull down your pants and

0:16:33.600 --> 0:16:36.520
<v Speaker 1>then they're only going to see the bottom half of

0:16:36.600 --> 0:16:38.800
<v Speaker 1>your waist, and then they're going to decide whether you're

0:16:38.800 --> 0:16:42.000
<v Speaker 1>attractive or not or whether they want to date you. No,

0:16:42.200 --> 0:16:44.280
<v Speaker 1>are you out of your mind? I'm not that confident.

0:16:44.440 --> 0:16:47.160
<v Speaker 1>So I actually give a lot of these contestants a

0:16:47.200 --> 0:16:50.200
<v Speaker 1>ton of credit because it takes balls to be like,

0:16:50.200 --> 0:16:52.680
<v Speaker 1>oh yeah, I'll go on national television. I'll have them

0:16:52.720 --> 0:16:56.160
<v Speaker 1>only see from my waist down, and I feel good

0:16:56.240 --> 0:16:58.320
<v Speaker 1>enough that they'll pick me. I think you have to

0:16:58.360 --> 0:17:00.520
<v Speaker 1>be in order to go on the show. You have

0:17:00.640 --> 0:17:02.720
<v Speaker 1>to be kind of like inherently an exhibitionist to the

0:17:02.720 --> 0:17:05.480
<v Speaker 1>point where you're already showing a lot of other people

0:17:05.560 --> 0:17:09.240
<v Speaker 1>your exposed body. Because like, what is the pitch like

0:17:09.359 --> 0:17:11.800
<v Speaker 1>for that show to be a contestant? You know, I

0:17:12.240 --> 0:17:14.520
<v Speaker 1>can only like it would be I wouldn't do it either,

0:17:14.640 --> 0:17:16.560
<v Speaker 1>But I don't think that we're necessarily the people that

0:17:16.600 --> 0:17:19.399
<v Speaker 1>they're scouting to go on that show. I hope not

0:17:19.520 --> 0:17:21.800
<v Speaker 1>like we talked about, nobody wants to see my bottom half,

0:17:21.920 --> 0:17:26.159
<v Speaker 1>poor Ashley, right or maybe yeah? Yeah, I mean I

0:17:26.200 --> 0:17:28.280
<v Speaker 1>wouldn't mind. I would mind taking a look, just like

0:17:28.400 --> 0:17:32.520
<v Speaker 1>medical purposes, just to say curiosity. But no, I mean

0:17:32.560 --> 0:17:34.360
<v Speaker 1>I agree with you. I mean I'm on the same

0:17:34.359 --> 0:17:37.960
<v Speaker 1>boat as you, Like, in my entire life, I've seen uh,

0:17:38.080 --> 0:17:40.399
<v Speaker 1>you know, I would I would say I could count

0:17:40.440 --> 0:17:42.640
<v Speaker 1>on my hands the number of penises that I've seen

0:17:42.640 --> 0:17:50.119
<v Speaker 1>in real life, which which it might be high, I

0:17:50.200 --> 0:17:52.760
<v Speaker 1>don't know, but I definitely I might need both hands,

0:17:52.800 --> 0:17:54.720
<v Speaker 1>but I think I could get to the number at

0:17:54.760 --> 0:17:58.360
<v Speaker 1>some point within my first two hands. So by that

0:17:58.400 --> 0:18:00.440
<v Speaker 1>logic into what you're saying is like you see these

0:18:00.440 --> 0:18:03.600
<v Speaker 1>TV shows Tommy and Pamela. You see he's wearing like

0:18:03.680 --> 0:18:09.000
<v Speaker 1>this prosthetic penis and it's granted, tom Uh, Tommy what's

0:18:09.000 --> 0:18:11.800
<v Speaker 1>his name did have a big penis in real life

0:18:11.800 --> 0:18:15.320
<v Speaker 1>and still does obviously, uh, but you're still you know,

0:18:15.320 --> 0:18:17.280
<v Speaker 1>it's a it's a comparison, thig Tommy late, thank you

0:18:17.320 --> 0:18:19.399
<v Speaker 1>for this. I want to know because Eastern keeps chiming

0:18:19.440 --> 0:18:22.000
<v Speaker 1>into the chat, Eastern, I want to know your thoughts

0:18:22.000 --> 0:18:24.840
<v Speaker 1>on this show. I feel like you might have some

0:18:24.960 --> 0:18:28.960
<v Speaker 1>interesting ones. Being a fellow, uh you know person who

0:18:29.000 --> 0:18:33.119
<v Speaker 1>probably you know has a harry lower half. Well you wait, wait,

0:18:33.119 --> 0:18:35.080
<v Speaker 1>wait wait wait wait can we Easton? I'm so sorry

0:18:35.080 --> 0:18:37.919
<v Speaker 1>to interrupt you real quick. So this is interesting because

0:18:37.920 --> 0:18:40.119
<v Speaker 1>this is kind of like a naked attraction flipped on

0:18:40.160 --> 0:18:42.919
<v Speaker 1>its head, because we know what Easton looks like, and

0:18:42.960 --> 0:18:45.080
<v Speaker 1>now you're guessing what the rest of his body looks

0:18:45.119 --> 0:18:46.600
<v Speaker 1>like based off what you already know about, and so

0:18:46.640 --> 0:18:49.399
<v Speaker 1>you're you're in versing the game a little bit. So

0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:53.280
<v Speaker 1>Easton's got a hairy lower half thousand percent. I would

0:18:53.320 --> 0:18:57.320
<v Speaker 1>be shocked if he's uh, you know, like a baby's

0:18:57.359 --> 0:19:00.160
<v Speaker 1>bottom down there. Okay, well I would love to let

0:19:00.359 --> 0:19:05.320
<v Speaker 1>can we solve this this riddle for us? Wow? Um,

0:19:05.359 --> 0:19:08.960
<v Speaker 1>I do have a very hairy lower half. H you know,

0:19:09.080 --> 0:19:11.880
<v Speaker 1>you know it's interesting about my body hair and uh,

0:19:12.119 --> 0:19:16.679
<v Speaker 1>Hannah get hrs here. Um My my hair is like

0:19:16.720 --> 0:19:19.680
<v Speaker 1>it's almost like chaps like I have, Like it's the

0:19:19.720 --> 0:19:22.760
<v Speaker 1>hair goes up my leg, up my thigh and then

0:19:22.800 --> 0:19:26.760
<v Speaker 1>like there's like weird hairless patches. Around like my upper thigh,

0:19:26.880 --> 0:19:29.399
<v Speaker 1>and then it goes back up a little little patch

0:19:29.440 --> 0:19:32.800
<v Speaker 1>on the back nothing and then a tank top up

0:19:32.840 --> 0:19:35.520
<v Speaker 1>here and then nothing on the arms and on the back.

0:19:35.920 --> 0:19:39.639
<v Speaker 1>It sounds like my face right. I wish it would connect.

0:19:39.640 --> 0:19:41.520
<v Speaker 1>I wish I had that cool like you know, just

0:19:41.960 --> 0:19:45.760
<v Speaker 1>like rug of chest hair and like so you were

0:19:45.800 --> 0:19:48.040
<v Speaker 1>like a full Austin powers. I do I do. I

0:19:48.080 --> 0:19:50.240
<v Speaker 1>really want that really badly. I don't know why you

0:19:50.280 --> 0:19:53.160
<v Speaker 1>don't have that. And this is this is purely conjecture, um,

0:19:53.200 --> 0:19:55.600
<v Speaker 1>and it's probably entirely wrong. But I have similar issues,

0:19:55.800 --> 0:19:57.720
<v Speaker 1>not issues, because they're not the issues. We're still perfect

0:19:57.720 --> 0:19:59.840
<v Speaker 1>the way that we are. UM. I've noticed that if

0:19:59.840 --> 0:20:03.760
<v Speaker 1>I where the hairless spots on my body are where

0:20:04.160 --> 0:20:06.440
<v Speaker 1>like clothing would rub often, you know what I mean,

0:20:07.119 --> 0:20:09.680
<v Speaker 1>That's what I thought. I've worn tight pants for a

0:20:09.680 --> 0:20:12.320
<v Speaker 1>good amount of my adult life, and uh yeah, that's

0:20:12.320 --> 0:20:16.159
<v Speaker 1>probably like where the pockets rub, where the red the

0:20:16.200 --> 0:20:18.719
<v Speaker 1>rest of the jeans are rubbing. UM. But I do

0:20:18.760 --> 0:20:21.040
<v Speaker 1>have I am a harry person, Jared, that's a fair guess.

0:20:22.240 --> 0:20:24.920
<v Speaker 1>I just you know, I I you know, as a

0:20:24.920 --> 0:20:28.720
<v Speaker 1>hairy person myself. I wh I I can tell when

0:20:29.080 --> 0:20:31.639
<v Speaker 1>somebody's like me, Hannah, I have a question for you

0:20:34.200 --> 0:20:37.360
<v Speaker 1>as a as a as a woman. Uh, do you

0:20:38.119 --> 0:20:43.240
<v Speaker 1>like hair on a guy's chest? I don't like a

0:20:43.320 --> 0:20:48.640
<v Speaker 1>guy to have no hair, but not super hairy. Well yeah,

0:20:48.760 --> 0:20:50.680
<v Speaker 1>I mean there's a nice little balance there. But I

0:20:50.760 --> 0:20:54.320
<v Speaker 1>always think of Henry Cavill because there is a shot

0:20:54.600 --> 0:20:57.080
<v Speaker 1>in Man of Steel because he plays Superman where he's

0:20:57.119 --> 0:20:59.760
<v Speaker 1>running with his shirt off, and I want that exact

0:21:00.000 --> 0:21:06.160
<v Speaker 1>out of hair on my body. Oh it's I gotta send.

0:21:06.160 --> 0:21:11.480
<v Speaker 1>It's pretty good. I'm so excited. Like his chest and

0:21:11.480 --> 0:21:16.000
<v Speaker 1>then everywhere else is basically a hairless that's point. Yeah,

0:21:16.720 --> 0:21:18.760
<v Speaker 1>that's the question. So would you rather have let me

0:21:18.760 --> 0:21:20.320
<v Speaker 1>ask you hunt, if you had to pick, would you

0:21:20.480 --> 0:21:23.880
<v Speaker 1>rather have someone who's hairy or someone with no hair?

0:21:24.720 --> 0:21:27.600
<v Speaker 1>Both like same guy, same body, you know, the exact

0:21:27.680 --> 0:21:31.560
<v Speaker 1>body you want and there, and there's just no one between.

0:21:31.560 --> 0:21:34.320
<v Speaker 1>It's there's no one between. It's like, hey, he's hairy

0:21:34.359 --> 0:21:38.200
<v Speaker 1>all over, or he's got nothing, well not nothing, it's

0:21:38.200 --> 0:21:39.720
<v Speaker 1>just one side of the spectrum. On the other come

0:21:39.720 --> 0:21:47.119
<v Speaker 1>on nothing. Oh god, I feel like hairless is too creepy,

0:21:48.000 --> 0:21:52.960
<v Speaker 1>So probably I would. I would consider myself hairless compared

0:21:53.000 --> 0:21:54.719
<v Speaker 1>to you guys at least, and I would say if

0:21:54.760 --> 0:21:57.040
<v Speaker 1>I was attracted to men, I would be more attracted

0:21:57.080 --> 0:22:01.640
<v Speaker 1>to men with less hair. Yeah. But picture a guy

0:22:01.680 --> 0:22:03.840
<v Speaker 1>with no hair, no leg hair. A guy with no

0:22:04.000 --> 0:22:06.160
<v Speaker 1>leg hair. That creeps me out. I mean I'm offended

0:22:06.200 --> 0:22:08.800
<v Speaker 1>because I have a very little leg hair. Yeah, but

0:22:08.840 --> 0:22:11.199
<v Speaker 1>you will you have some leg hair. Oh sure, Well

0:22:11.200 --> 0:22:13.280
<v Speaker 1>that's why. That's why I'm trying to to rain in

0:22:13.359 --> 0:22:17.679
<v Speaker 1>Jared's crazy um proposition here, because no hair is ridiculous.

0:22:17.800 --> 0:22:19.400
<v Speaker 1>What are you just a giant what's the other side

0:22:19.400 --> 0:22:21.800
<v Speaker 1>of that? Just the giant hairball. I've hair all over

0:22:21.840 --> 0:22:28.320
<v Speaker 1>my face, yeah, all over my hands, yeah, from the

0:22:28.480 --> 0:22:32.480
<v Speaker 1>Adam's family. Yeah, guys, look like this is this is

0:22:32.520 --> 0:22:34.320
<v Speaker 1>the game right here. You have it. It's either all

0:22:34.359 --> 0:22:37.440
<v Speaker 1>in or nothing. No, I think the spectrums would be

0:22:37.480 --> 0:22:40.280
<v Speaker 1>like I would be more on the hairless side of

0:22:40.320 --> 0:22:41.600
<v Speaker 1>the spectrum, and then you would be more on the

0:22:41.720 --> 0:22:44.440
<v Speaker 1>You're not even that hairy, I don't think me. No,

0:22:44.560 --> 0:22:49.199
<v Speaker 1>I mean I'm not super hairy. I think super hair.

0:22:49.440 --> 0:22:51.840
<v Speaker 1>I think I might actually change my answer to hairless

0:22:51.960 --> 0:22:54.680
<v Speaker 1>because I don't want the guy I'm with to have

0:22:54.760 --> 0:22:57.439
<v Speaker 1>like a hairy butt crack, yes see, and this is

0:22:57.440 --> 0:23:00.159
<v Speaker 1>all I wanted to I wanted. I wanted six us

0:23:00.240 --> 0:23:02.880
<v Speaker 1>for the hairless people in life, because like hair on

0:23:03.320 --> 0:23:07.800
<v Speaker 1>my guy's toes, yea, I'd be weird. I sometimes I

0:23:07.800 --> 0:23:10.480
<v Speaker 1>think about making out with my guy friends and which

0:23:10.480 --> 0:23:13.440
<v Speaker 1>ones I would enjoy making out with most. And when

0:23:13.480 --> 0:23:16.400
<v Speaker 1>I write daydream about making out with my hairy friends,

0:23:16.960 --> 0:23:20.800
<v Speaker 1>I always and it happens. I always think about how

0:23:20.840 --> 0:23:24.320
<v Speaker 1>annoying the prickliness of their beards would be on my face.

0:23:24.680 --> 0:23:26.840
<v Speaker 1>And so kudos to your partners for being able to

0:23:26.840 --> 0:23:30.400
<v Speaker 1>tolerate that. That's got to be brutal. It's so brutal,

0:23:30.680 --> 0:23:33.960
<v Speaker 1>you know, Like I kissed Dawson all the time on

0:23:34.000 --> 0:23:36.560
<v Speaker 1>his cheeks and I've noticed he's got like little red marks,

0:23:36.920 --> 0:23:43.480
<v Speaker 1>and Ashley's like, that's because of your stupid prickly beard. Stupid, welled, stupid.

0:23:43.520 --> 0:23:46.879
<v Speaker 1>I added stupid for dramatic set. But my point being

0:23:47.320 --> 0:23:50.960
<v Speaker 1>is that I don't I look better with a little

0:23:50.960 --> 0:23:54.560
<v Speaker 1>facial hair then I do clean shaven. So the problem

0:23:54.560 --> 0:23:56.320
<v Speaker 1>becomes Hanna, let me ask you this, would you rather

0:23:56.359 --> 0:23:58.760
<v Speaker 1>have a guy who looks better with a five o'clock shadow?

0:23:58.960 --> 0:24:01.440
<v Speaker 1>But your face is getting all scruffed up because it's

0:24:01.520 --> 0:24:03.720
<v Speaker 1>you know, prickly against your skin. Or would you rather

0:24:03.760 --> 0:24:05.879
<v Speaker 1>just say, hey, clean shaven and then let me enjoy,

0:24:06.320 --> 0:24:09.800
<v Speaker 1>you know, playing a little toalnsil hockey with you. Well,

0:24:09.840 --> 0:24:11.600
<v Speaker 1>I feel like clean shaven, but I feel like I'm

0:24:11.600 --> 0:24:14.160
<v Speaker 1>biased because when I was a kid, like my dad

0:24:14.200 --> 0:24:16.800
<v Speaker 1>would always have like whiskers and he would never be

0:24:16.840 --> 0:24:18.480
<v Speaker 1>able to like kiss me on the cheek or anything.

0:24:18.560 --> 0:24:21.960
<v Speaker 1>So I break out in hives. Wow, like I've really

0:24:22.000 --> 0:24:26.280
<v Speaker 1>sensitive skin. So definitely nothing. So that's an easy answer

0:24:26.280 --> 0:24:29.320
<v Speaker 1>for you. But also that also beckons and another question

0:24:29.400 --> 0:24:33.640
<v Speaker 1>opens a Pandora's box of would you rather be uh,

0:24:34.000 --> 0:24:35.840
<v Speaker 1>look at someone and be attracted to them or would

0:24:35.880 --> 0:24:39.119
<v Speaker 1>you rather like functionally be like, would you rather practical

0:24:39.160 --> 0:24:41.080
<v Speaker 1>relationship or you can kiss your partner, or would you

0:24:41.160 --> 0:24:42.720
<v Speaker 1>rather to like look at them and be like, wow,

0:24:42.760 --> 0:24:46.040
<v Speaker 1>he's really hot? You know. Oh that's such a hard question.

0:24:46.720 --> 0:24:48.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean I think the answer is obvious. Clean shaven,

0:24:48.920 --> 0:24:52.399
<v Speaker 1>no question, practical. Yeah. Listen, if if I'm going to

0:24:52.440 --> 0:24:54.280
<v Speaker 1>make out, like I said, with any of my guy friends,

0:24:54.359 --> 0:24:56.080
<v Speaker 1>they got to be clean shaven before we go in

0:24:56.200 --> 0:24:59.360
<v Speaker 1>for the kiss. Who's your number one? If you've put

0:24:59.400 --> 0:25:02.680
<v Speaker 1>so much thought to this. Oh, I don't. I don't

0:25:02.680 --> 0:25:03.919
<v Speaker 1>want to rank them, you know, I don't want to

0:25:03.920 --> 0:25:06.560
<v Speaker 1>put anyone against each other. It's just like in general,

0:25:07.000 --> 0:25:08.679
<v Speaker 1>maybe like we're all out together and we're all just

0:25:08.720 --> 0:25:12.639
<v Speaker 1>making out with each other at times. Um, just regular

0:25:12.720 --> 0:25:17.840
<v Speaker 1>just regular guy things, you know, understandable. Yeah, prompts a

0:25:17.880 --> 0:25:20.880
<v Speaker 1>lot of questions, doesn't it. Yeah, you know what, maybe

0:25:20.920 --> 0:25:22.760
<v Speaker 1>we'll say those questions for another time. We're gonna take

0:25:22.760 --> 0:25:25.520
<v Speaker 1>one quick break. We got we've got some great dating

0:25:25.520 --> 0:25:28.280
<v Speaker 1>headlines to get to that. I know Jared's really chomping

0:25:28.280 --> 0:25:30.800
<v Speaker 1>on the bit to get too, So I think we're

0:25:30.800 --> 0:25:31.960
<v Speaker 1>just gonna go ahead and put you guys out of

0:25:31.960 --> 0:25:34.000
<v Speaker 1>your misery for this segment, because we've covered a lot,

0:25:34.119 --> 0:25:36.640
<v Speaker 1>a lot, a lot, and we need to really decompress here.

0:25:36.680 --> 0:25:38.640
<v Speaker 1>So we're gonna take one quick break and we will

0:25:38.680 --> 0:25:52.240
<v Speaker 1>be right back. What's going on, everyone, and welcome back

0:25:52.280 --> 0:25:54.800
<v Speaker 1>to help I suck at dating. I'm going to step

0:25:54.800 --> 0:25:58.119
<v Speaker 1>away for um, twenty seconds literally twenty seconds while you

0:25:58.160 --> 0:26:00.560
<v Speaker 1>feel a cup of coffee jar, and we just take

0:26:00.640 --> 0:26:05.440
<v Speaker 1>over and we can jump into these dating headlines. Of course,

0:26:05.960 --> 0:26:09.040
<v Speaker 1>the next dating handline is something about a new dating show,

0:26:09.200 --> 0:26:12.440
<v Speaker 1>which I'm interested in because it comes with singles from

0:26:12.560 --> 0:26:16.119
<v Speaker 1>the other reality shows Too Hot to Handle, Love is Blind,

0:26:16.160 --> 0:26:19.359
<v Speaker 1>and actually a few more so Netflix and Kinetic content.

0:26:19.440 --> 0:26:21.920
<v Speaker 1>Now Kinetic is actually very near and dear to my heart.

0:26:21.960 --> 0:26:27.560
<v Speaker 1>So Kinetic produced a YouTube mini series, a YouTube show,

0:26:28.440 --> 0:26:31.720
<v Speaker 1>uh that Dean was also on that It was called

0:26:31.760 --> 0:26:34.720
<v Speaker 1>what Now. It was with me, ash Nick Tanner and

0:26:34.800 --> 0:26:37.600
<v Speaker 1>Jade and kind of revolved around our lives like what

0:26:37.640 --> 0:26:40.240
<v Speaker 1>we're doing now. And Kinetic is the one that produced it,

0:26:40.280 --> 0:26:41.679
<v Speaker 1>and we have so many good friends, and there's such

0:26:41.680 --> 0:26:43.960
<v Speaker 1>a great production company, and they have obviously also done

0:26:44.400 --> 0:26:47.040
<v Speaker 1>Love is Blind, and they also do Married at First Sight.

0:26:47.160 --> 0:26:50.240
<v Speaker 1>They are awesome, So anything that they produced I'm all

0:26:50.280 --> 0:26:54.159
<v Speaker 1>in for. So they're teaming up with Netflix, um and

0:26:54.160 --> 0:26:56.919
<v Speaker 1>they announced a new reality show that's coming soon, not

0:26:56.960 --> 0:26:59.760
<v Speaker 1>sure exactly when, but it's featuring stars from Too Hot

0:26:59.760 --> 0:27:02.959
<v Speaker 1>to Hand, Endill, Love is Blind, The Circle Selling Tampa,

0:27:03.000 --> 0:27:05.520
<v Speaker 1>and actually a few more reality shows. So it goes

0:27:05.560 --> 0:27:08.280
<v Speaker 1>like the singles from Netflix reality shows have done obviously

0:27:08.320 --> 0:27:11.440
<v Speaker 1>some crazy things to find love, but they're still single.

0:27:11.880 --> 0:27:15.080
<v Speaker 1>In this new series that's coming out between Kinetic and Netflix,

0:27:15.400 --> 0:27:18.879
<v Speaker 1>they will couple up to match each other and find

0:27:18.880 --> 0:27:22.360
<v Speaker 1>themselves in hopes of finding the perfect match. So they're

0:27:22.359 --> 0:27:25.720
<v Speaker 1>gonna couple up to match each other, uh and hoping

0:27:25.720 --> 0:27:29.159
<v Speaker 1>to find the perfect match. Now, it's currently untitled, but

0:27:29.280 --> 0:27:32.400
<v Speaker 1>like we said, it's going to be um from Kinnectic

0:27:33.320 --> 0:27:36.920
<v Speaker 1>Kinetic Content, which does Love is Blind. So Nick Lash

0:27:37.200 --> 0:27:41.239
<v Speaker 1>is actually gonna host this show as well. Uh and

0:27:41.320 --> 0:27:45.680
<v Speaker 1>so the cast has not been revealed, but the announcement

0:27:45.720 --> 0:27:48.800
<v Speaker 1>actually came I love this with the music video, a

0:27:48.920 --> 0:27:54.720
<v Speaker 1>nod to Nick Lash degrees days. God damn I miss

0:27:54.840 --> 0:27:57.119
<v Speaker 1>music videos. Man. Did you ever watch like, what was

0:27:57.119 --> 0:28:01.760
<v Speaker 1>it trl's Top twenty? No, dude, what you didn't watch that?

0:28:02.359 --> 0:28:05.119
<v Speaker 1>What was it? Like? It was either tr ls v

0:28:05.400 --> 0:28:08.119
<v Speaker 1>one or MTV they did their top twenty music videos

0:28:08.160 --> 0:28:10.840
<v Speaker 1>of the week music video dude, hell yeah, and they

0:28:10.840 --> 0:28:14.159
<v Speaker 1>played every music video. I remember in two thousand in

0:28:14.440 --> 0:28:19.120
<v Speaker 1>q uh it was what's that song from Spider Man?

0:28:19.160 --> 0:28:23.080
<v Speaker 1>Oh my god, Easton will know this but anyways by

0:28:23.119 --> 0:28:25.919
<v Speaker 1>Chad Kroeger and that music video was in like the

0:28:25.960 --> 0:28:28.840
<v Speaker 1>top twenty for like thirty weeks. And I used to

0:28:28.880 --> 0:28:31.680
<v Speaker 1>watch every Sunday morning the Top twenty music video, so

0:28:31.720 --> 0:28:33.960
<v Speaker 1>I could just watch that music video because they had

0:28:34.000 --> 0:28:36.960
<v Speaker 1>clips of Spider Man in there, and I loved Spider

0:28:37.000 --> 0:28:39.480
<v Speaker 1>Man so much. And this was before the Internet, before

0:28:39.520 --> 0:28:41.400
<v Speaker 1>I could just go on YouTube and watch the trailer

0:28:41.480 --> 0:28:43.920
<v Speaker 1>a million times or watch clips. So the only time

0:28:44.000 --> 0:28:46.720
<v Speaker 1>I ever got to watch clips of Spider Man before

0:28:46.720 --> 0:28:48.719
<v Speaker 1>he came out into DVD, when it was still in theaters,

0:28:49.000 --> 0:28:51.400
<v Speaker 1>was watching that music video. And bro, when I tell you,

0:28:51.440 --> 0:28:54.080
<v Speaker 1>every Sunday morning, I would be there and a watch

0:28:54.160 --> 0:28:56.240
<v Speaker 1>every single music video. This was also the same time

0:28:56.280 --> 0:28:59.160
<v Speaker 1>when Beyonce's Crazy and Love was out, so like I

0:28:59.160 --> 0:29:01.680
<v Speaker 1>remember watching Once is Crazy and Love music video. I

0:29:01.720 --> 0:29:05.640
<v Speaker 1>remember watching the Hero music video by Chad Kroeger. God,

0:29:05.680 --> 0:29:10.200
<v Speaker 1>those are such a good time. Anyway, television was actually

0:29:10.280 --> 0:29:12.680
<v Speaker 1>music television, and now it's gone off the rails and

0:29:12.800 --> 0:29:15.280
<v Speaker 1>done sound a little thing. Right now it's all about

0:29:15.400 --> 0:29:19.640
<v Speaker 1>just naked people. Uh so let's see. So what are

0:29:19.680 --> 0:29:23.720
<v Speaker 1>your thoughts about this new show? Um? Obviously, so it's

0:29:23.720 --> 0:29:29.840
<v Speaker 1>about these singles from previous reality television shows are going

0:29:29.920 --> 0:29:34.400
<v Speaker 1>to couple up to match each other and themselves in

0:29:34.520 --> 0:29:37.280
<v Speaker 1>hopes of finding the perfect match. So the way I'm

0:29:37.400 --> 0:29:40.720
<v Speaker 1>viewing this, it hasn't been like officially announced exactly how

0:29:40.760 --> 0:29:43.320
<v Speaker 1>this is going to go down. But I would imagine that,

0:29:43.400 --> 0:29:45.320
<v Speaker 1>like people from Too Hot to Handle, our people from

0:29:45.320 --> 0:29:48.680
<v Speaker 1>Love Love Is Blind are going to get together and

0:29:48.760 --> 0:29:52.120
<v Speaker 1>try to play hitch will also find love for themselves.

0:29:52.680 --> 0:29:57.240
<v Speaker 1>M yeah, I um, I don't know how to feel

0:29:57.240 --> 0:29:59.200
<v Speaker 1>about this. I guess it'll be It'll be interesting to

0:29:59.200 --> 0:30:02.000
<v Speaker 1>see the familiar races. What I've noticed though, when I've

0:30:02.000 --> 0:30:06.040
<v Speaker 1>watched these shows more specifically, like Love is Blind and

0:30:06.080 --> 0:30:09.680
<v Speaker 1>Too Hot to Handle Who Like, both of those shows

0:30:09.680 --> 0:30:12.480
<v Speaker 1>were basically overnight successes when it came to like the

0:30:12.600 --> 0:30:15.880
<v Speaker 1>dating streaming shows on Netflix, they blew up so big

0:30:15.920 --> 0:30:18.440
<v Speaker 1>the first year. Granted, we were all in our homes

0:30:18.440 --> 0:30:20.240
<v Speaker 1>for so long, so maybe that had a big play

0:30:20.280 --> 0:30:23.440
<v Speaker 1>into it. But first seasons were good, and then every

0:30:23.560 --> 0:30:27.040
<v Speaker 1>season after that has gotten progressively worse. And so that's

0:30:27.040 --> 0:30:30.600
<v Speaker 1>why I'm skeptical about this show, because I feel like,

0:30:31.720 --> 0:30:34.360
<v Speaker 1>seeing how successful those shows were in their first seasons,

0:30:34.400 --> 0:30:37.520
<v Speaker 1>then contestants come in expecting, like, you know, all of

0:30:37.560 --> 0:30:40.520
<v Speaker 1>this fame and notoriety and stuff, and so they acted

0:30:40.720 --> 0:30:42.320
<v Speaker 1>a different type of way and it just like seems

0:30:42.360 --> 0:30:44.520
<v Speaker 1>so unauthentic to me, and I can't buy into it.

0:30:44.560 --> 0:30:46.200
<v Speaker 1>And so that's just kind of what I'm expecting more

0:30:46.240 --> 0:30:50.400
<v Speaker 1>of with this show, maybe like even on steroids. You know. Yeah,

0:30:50.400 --> 0:30:52.960
<v Speaker 1>it's kind of like Bachelor ever since Instagram blew up,

0:30:53.160 --> 0:30:56.120
<v Speaker 1>like every contestant now it's like you're just you know,

0:30:56.280 --> 0:30:57.960
<v Speaker 1>you feel like a majority of them are just going

0:30:57.960 --> 0:31:00.880
<v Speaker 1>on to try to gain Instagram followers. But like five

0:31:00.960 --> 0:31:04.600
<v Speaker 1>six years ago, that wasn't a thing, right, And I mean,

0:31:04.840 --> 0:31:07.360
<v Speaker 1>what we I'm not gonna say we did the same thing,

0:31:07.400 --> 0:31:10.040
<v Speaker 1>but we obviously were able to accumulate, like we have

0:31:10.120 --> 0:31:13.720
<v Speaker 1>this podcast because of the show. We're incredibly grateful for it. Um.

0:31:13.760 --> 0:31:15.520
<v Speaker 1>I like to think we got out the perfect time.

0:31:15.600 --> 0:31:18.560
<v Speaker 1>I would I would if we were still going to

0:31:18.600 --> 0:31:22.240
<v Speaker 1>Bachelor Nation filming show is not like in a hosting capacity,

0:31:22.280 --> 0:31:24.680
<v Speaker 1>but like as it contested in all those things, Um,

0:31:24.720 --> 0:31:27.320
<v Speaker 1>I would be a little disappointed in us. Thankfully that's

0:31:27.320 --> 0:31:29.400
<v Speaker 1>not the case. But I guess my point is, it's

0:31:29.440 --> 0:31:32.200
<v Speaker 1>just it's just, yeah, it just seems like they're trying

0:31:32.320 --> 0:31:37.080
<v Speaker 1>super hard to become like the next big influencer, you know,

0:31:37.520 --> 0:31:39.680
<v Speaker 1>a thousand percent and no doubt that these people are

0:31:39.680 --> 0:31:42.400
<v Speaker 1>doing the same thing, but you know, it would probably

0:31:42.400 --> 0:31:45.600
<v Speaker 1>be entertaining for those purposes. Because they'll be crying in

0:31:45.760 --> 0:31:49.160
<v Speaker 1>drama and villains and heroes. The reason I kind of

0:31:49.320 --> 0:31:51.440
<v Speaker 1>like this show is that one of the reasons why

0:31:51.440 --> 0:31:55.160
<v Speaker 1>I like Paradise so much for Bachelor is it hooked,

0:31:55.240 --> 0:31:57.280
<v Speaker 1>Like it brings people together that you thought would be

0:31:57.280 --> 0:31:59.600
<v Speaker 1>a good match. Like how many times when a guy

0:31:59.640 --> 0:32:02.800
<v Speaker 1>gets a eliminated or a girl gets eliminated online at

0:32:02.800 --> 0:32:05.880
<v Speaker 1>Twitter and you're like, this person would be perfect with

0:32:05.960 --> 0:32:07.719
<v Speaker 1>this person, Like, I'm sure it happened with you when

0:32:07.720 --> 0:32:09.920
<v Speaker 1>you got eliminated from Rachel's season. I'm sure you've got

0:32:09.960 --> 0:32:13.680
<v Speaker 1>so many tweets or comments saying, Dean, you, you and

0:32:13.800 --> 0:32:16.120
<v Speaker 1>so and so from the previous season would be so

0:32:16.200 --> 0:32:18.320
<v Speaker 1>perfect for one another. And then you go down to

0:32:18.320 --> 0:32:20.760
<v Speaker 1>Paradise and then you find out either you guys are

0:32:20.800 --> 0:32:22.680
<v Speaker 1>a good match or you aren't a good match. So

0:32:22.720 --> 0:32:25.360
<v Speaker 1>I'd be interested to find like, if there's somebody from

0:32:25.360 --> 0:32:27.240
<v Speaker 1>like two Hot to Handle who's like, I think you'd

0:32:27.280 --> 0:32:29.280
<v Speaker 1>be perfect with this person from Love is Blind. And

0:32:29.280 --> 0:32:31.560
<v Speaker 1>what's funny about that, too, is out of a hundred times,

0:32:31.560 --> 0:32:34.080
<v Speaker 1>you're a bad match. So I do expect a lot

0:32:34.120 --> 0:32:37.080
<v Speaker 1>of chaos and sewing from this show, because yeah, sure,

0:32:37.120 --> 0:32:39.360
<v Speaker 1>maybe your friends have a good idea, but the people

0:32:39.400 --> 0:32:41.800
<v Speaker 1>that spent a month on a TV show with you

0:32:41.960 --> 0:32:43.720
<v Speaker 1>don't really have a very good idea. So I don't

0:32:43.720 --> 0:32:46.160
<v Speaker 1>think it's gonna be I mean, it'd be entertaining, like

0:32:46.160 --> 0:32:47.600
<v Speaker 1>you said, I think there'll be a lot of drama

0:32:47.640 --> 0:32:50.320
<v Speaker 1>and stuff, and I'll probably watch. I don't want to like,

0:32:50.360 --> 0:32:52.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm not like disparaging the show or anything that. I

0:32:52.960 --> 0:32:55.400
<v Speaker 1>watched a lot of Blind season two, and well, I

0:32:55.400 --> 0:32:57.520
<v Speaker 1>think season one is better. I thought season two is

0:32:57.520 --> 0:33:01.000
<v Speaker 1>still pretty good. I watched two Hot Handle season one.

0:33:01.400 --> 0:33:04.200
<v Speaker 1>Season two got a little less good. I haven't watched

0:33:04.240 --> 0:33:07.160
<v Speaker 1>season three yet, so I'm still watching these shows. I

0:33:07.280 --> 0:33:10.200
<v Speaker 1>just I see like the that they're all handing it

0:33:10.280 --> 0:33:12.200
<v Speaker 1>up for the cameras and so it just it turns

0:33:12.240 --> 0:33:14.080
<v Speaker 1>me off a little bit. But maybe this new show

0:33:14.120 --> 0:33:16.880
<v Speaker 1>will be different because I don't know. Maybe they it's

0:33:17.080 --> 0:33:20.080
<v Speaker 1>season one, so we'll see. That's true. Season one usually

0:33:20.120 --> 0:33:22.800
<v Speaker 1>is the best season, so I guess we will find out.

0:33:22.800 --> 0:33:24.160
<v Speaker 1>We do have a couple of emails that we want

0:33:24.160 --> 0:33:26.760
<v Speaker 1>to get to you before we wrap up Easton. If

0:33:26.760 --> 0:33:28.960
<v Speaker 1>you wanted to read these emails, that'd be great because

0:33:29.040 --> 0:33:32.320
<v Speaker 1>Mark's not here and um, you're our favorite number two?

0:33:32.760 --> 0:33:35.680
<v Speaker 1>Oh thank you. Should we take a break before we

0:33:35.680 --> 0:33:39.640
<v Speaker 1>get to the email real quick? I don't know what

0:33:39.800 --> 0:33:42.400
<v Speaker 1>you tell me? Well, normally we would, I would say

0:33:42.400 --> 0:33:47.280
<v Speaker 1>our general format is segment break, segment break. Sure, so

0:33:47.360 --> 0:33:49.000
<v Speaker 1>let's just take a quick break because we don't want

0:33:49.000 --> 0:33:51.280
<v Speaker 1>to disrupt the flow. I know it's early for you, Jared.

0:33:51.320 --> 0:33:57.160
<v Speaker 1>It's it's on the East Coast on a lot. The baby.

0:33:57.200 --> 0:33:59.040
<v Speaker 1>It's the baby, that's what it is. I I can't

0:33:59.040 --> 0:34:01.880
<v Speaker 1>speak out on the baby. It's more. We're gonna take

0:34:01.880 --> 0:34:04.080
<v Speaker 1>a quick break. We're gonna be right back, Jared, take

0:34:04.080 --> 0:34:17.440
<v Speaker 1>a quick nap. We'll get you on some email. All right,

0:34:17.440 --> 0:34:22.480
<v Speaker 1>welcome back. We're gonna get to these emails real quick. Um,

0:34:22.520 --> 0:34:24.280
<v Speaker 1>not real quick. We're gonna take our time with him. Actually,

0:34:24.280 --> 0:34:25.960
<v Speaker 1>why do I say that, Ethan? What you got for us?

0:34:26.560 --> 0:34:29.480
<v Speaker 1>All right? This is from Amelia. My boyfriend of eight

0:34:29.560 --> 0:34:32.440
<v Speaker 1>years has expressed he doesn't think that marriage is necessary.

0:34:32.840 --> 0:34:34.560
<v Speaker 1>He doesn't feel that a piece of paper or a

0:34:34.640 --> 0:34:37.839
<v Speaker 1>label changes anything. At first, this didn't bother me at all.

0:34:37.880 --> 0:34:39.719
<v Speaker 1>But all my friends are getting married, and I never

0:34:39.840 --> 0:34:41.520
<v Speaker 1>knew how much I wanted a wedding or to be

0:34:41.560 --> 0:34:44.640
<v Speaker 1>married until now. I have expressed that to my boyfriend,

0:34:44.680 --> 0:34:46.600
<v Speaker 1>and he keeps reiterating that if we get married, it

0:34:46.640 --> 0:34:49.160
<v Speaker 1>won't change our relationship or how he feels about me.

0:34:49.560 --> 0:34:52.160
<v Speaker 1>My point is, if it doesn't change anything, then why

0:34:52.239 --> 0:34:54.440
<v Speaker 1>not just get married. If it doesn't matter, then what

0:34:54.480 --> 0:34:56.719
<v Speaker 1>difference does it make. I'm starting to worry that there

0:34:56.719 --> 0:34:58.799
<v Speaker 1>are other reasons he doesn't want to get married. Is

0:34:58.840 --> 0:35:01.520
<v Speaker 1>this a deal breaker? I know Dean feels similar to

0:35:01.520 --> 0:35:04.640
<v Speaker 1>my boyfriend. Dean if Calin expressed this was a deal breaker,

0:35:04.680 --> 0:35:07.320
<v Speaker 1>would you get married tomorrow? How do I keep expressing

0:35:07.320 --> 0:35:09.439
<v Speaker 1>how important this is to me? And if he isn't

0:35:09.480 --> 0:35:11.239
<v Speaker 1>willing to get married, do I take that as a

0:35:11.280 --> 0:35:15.799
<v Speaker 1>red flag? Uh? Well, I was the only unmarried man

0:35:15.920 --> 0:35:20.239
<v Speaker 1>in this uh forum here. I I want to say

0:35:20.280 --> 0:35:23.160
<v Speaker 1>the first red flag that I read when Amelia was

0:35:23.920 --> 0:35:26.200
<v Speaker 1>writing this email, and it's a It's not like red,

0:35:26.200 --> 0:35:30.440
<v Speaker 1>it's maybe like a light pink um. She says that

0:35:30.600 --> 0:35:32.080
<v Speaker 1>first it didn't bother me that he didn't want to

0:35:32.120 --> 0:35:34.440
<v Speaker 1>get married, but then all of my friends started doing it,

0:35:34.440 --> 0:35:36.880
<v Speaker 1>and so then I wanted to get married. And it's like, Okay,

0:35:36.960 --> 0:35:38.719
<v Speaker 1>do you want to get married actually? Or do you

0:35:38.760 --> 0:35:41.520
<v Speaker 1>want are you just jealous of your friends or you

0:35:41.520 --> 0:35:44.000
<v Speaker 1>want to be included in the whole marriage ceremony with

0:35:44.040 --> 0:35:46.200
<v Speaker 1>that your friends are all doing. That's that was one

0:35:46.239 --> 0:35:48.000
<v Speaker 1>of my takeaways from that was it's like, do you

0:35:48.040 --> 0:35:49.920
<v Speaker 1>want to do it or are you just jealous that

0:35:49.960 --> 0:35:51.560
<v Speaker 1>your friends are all doing it and now you want

0:35:51.560 --> 0:35:56.160
<v Speaker 1>to piece the action too. That being said, eight years

0:35:56.160 --> 0:35:57.759
<v Speaker 1>is a long time. And if you make it really

0:35:57.760 --> 0:35:59.440
<v Speaker 1>clear to your boyfriend that you want to get married

0:35:59.440 --> 0:36:01.200
<v Speaker 1>and he still doesn't want to get married, I do

0:36:01.280 --> 0:36:03.640
<v Speaker 1>think that's a bad thing. I am in a similar

0:36:03.680 --> 0:36:06.520
<v Speaker 1>boat as your boyfriend, Like, I don't really think marriage

0:36:06.600 --> 0:36:09.719
<v Speaker 1>is that cool. I think it's cool to be with

0:36:09.719 --> 0:36:13.360
<v Speaker 1>a person for your entire life. But uh, the whole

0:36:13.719 --> 0:36:17.600
<v Speaker 1>concept of marriage has been taken. Uh, I don't know,

0:36:17.640 --> 0:36:20.719
<v Speaker 1>it's taken a weird tangent not not to speak down

0:36:20.719 --> 0:36:22.279
<v Speaker 1>in marriage because you guys are married, and I love

0:36:22.480 --> 0:36:28.520
<v Speaker 1>obviously your your matrimonies, honest stuff. Um, that all being said,

0:36:29.719 --> 0:36:32.120
<v Speaker 1>Kaylin and I will get married, and we're gonna get

0:36:32.120 --> 0:36:34.200
<v Speaker 1>married not because I want to get married, but because

0:36:34.200 --> 0:36:36.399
<v Speaker 1>she wants to get married, and because I love her,

0:36:36.960 --> 0:36:38.600
<v Speaker 1>I want to be able to give her what she wants,

0:36:39.160 --> 0:36:40.360
<v Speaker 1>and I think that's kind of like the long and

0:36:40.360 --> 0:36:41.759
<v Speaker 1>short of it is like, if this guy loves you

0:36:41.800 --> 0:36:43.520
<v Speaker 1>and wants to give you what you want, you make

0:36:43.560 --> 0:36:45.319
<v Speaker 1>a good point like what's the difference. If he's saying

0:36:45.320 --> 0:36:47.000
<v Speaker 1>there's no difference, then what's the difference to him? And

0:36:47.040 --> 0:36:49.719
<v Speaker 1>if you really want it, then why why should it

0:36:49.760 --> 0:36:51.120
<v Speaker 1>make any difference to him? And that's kind of the

0:36:51.400 --> 0:36:55.359
<v Speaker 1>realization I came to where it's like, I, yeah, maybe

0:36:55.360 --> 0:36:56.920
<v Speaker 1>I don't want to get married, sure, but if Caylin

0:36:57.000 --> 0:36:59.000
<v Speaker 1>wants it, Caylin wants it more than I don't want it,

0:36:59.200 --> 0:37:02.160
<v Speaker 1>and because of that, we're gonna get married. You know

0:37:02.160 --> 0:37:04.520
<v Speaker 1>what I mean. I think that's a great answer. It's

0:37:04.520 --> 0:37:06.919
<v Speaker 1>exactly what I was thinking too, So I don't really

0:37:06.920 --> 0:37:09.160
<v Speaker 1>have much to add. I mean, I was in a

0:37:09.200 --> 0:37:11.439
<v Speaker 1>similar vote to this dude, because like, like, my parents

0:37:11.480 --> 0:37:13.520
<v Speaker 1>are divorced, Alison's parents are divorced. We don't have a

0:37:13.560 --> 0:37:16.839
<v Speaker 1>great model of marriage for us, and so we're both

0:37:16.880 --> 0:37:19.560
<v Speaker 1>like we don't want to get married, that's stupid. Our

0:37:19.600 --> 0:37:25.279
<v Speaker 1>parents are miserable. But then we thought like, well, if

0:37:25.320 --> 0:37:28.200
<v Speaker 1>it doesn't make a difference, we're gonna we want to

0:37:28.239 --> 0:37:30.880
<v Speaker 1>be use each other forever. Why not just do it? Unfortunately,

0:37:30.880 --> 0:37:33.040
<v Speaker 1>in society, it is easier to do certain things like

0:37:33.080 --> 0:37:36.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, buying a house and like insurance and things

0:37:36.080 --> 0:37:38.200
<v Speaker 1>like that if you are married. So we figured why not.

0:37:39.200 --> 0:37:42.520
<v Speaker 1>And it's been a lot of fun. And uh, I

0:37:43.000 --> 0:37:44.840
<v Speaker 1>I don't know. I recommend it. I think it's a

0:37:44.840 --> 0:37:47.160
<v Speaker 1>lot of fun. But the other important thing, at least

0:37:47.160 --> 0:37:49.960
<v Speaker 1>from my point of view, is that I love Alison

0:37:50.080 --> 0:37:52.640
<v Speaker 1>so much. She's so much more of a catch than me,

0:37:52.719 --> 0:37:54.120
<v Speaker 1>and I want to make sure if she wants to

0:37:54.200 --> 0:37:55.759
<v Speaker 1>leave me, she has to find a judge in an

0:37:55.760 --> 0:38:00.480
<v Speaker 1>attorney to do it has to be illegal. Yeah, that's smart,

0:38:00.560 --> 0:38:02.399
<v Speaker 1>that's smart. And I'll tell you what he said. I'm

0:38:02.680 --> 0:38:05.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm been in the same boat too as Because as time,

0:38:05.680 --> 0:38:07.839
<v Speaker 1>time just moves in one direction, right, it always moves

0:38:07.840 --> 0:38:12.440
<v Speaker 1>forward along that tangent of time. I am slowly getting

0:38:12.520 --> 0:38:15.799
<v Speaker 1>less and less appealing and less attractive. Kaylin, on the

0:38:15.800 --> 0:38:18.000
<v Speaker 1>other hand, is getting more appealing and more So we're

0:38:18.000 --> 0:38:20.319
<v Speaker 1>moving in opposite directions here, and I already started at

0:38:20.360 --> 0:38:23.560
<v Speaker 1>a pretty big disadvantage. So this whole, this whole marriage

0:38:23.560 --> 0:38:25.520
<v Speaker 1>stuff is really starting to look a lot more enticing

0:38:25.560 --> 0:38:29.040
<v Speaker 1>for me because soon she's going to realize that gap

0:38:29.120 --> 0:38:33.040
<v Speaker 1>is pretty substantial, and if we're not legally married, I

0:38:33.040 --> 0:38:35.720
<v Speaker 1>think she'll have a lot easier way to like weasel

0:38:35.719 --> 0:38:38.799
<v Speaker 1>her way out of it. And so that's probably gonna

0:38:38.800 --> 0:38:43.600
<v Speaker 1>happen because of that. Um that being said too, I

0:38:43.600 --> 0:38:45.640
<v Speaker 1>I Jared, he talks a lot about this when you

0:38:45.680 --> 0:38:48.680
<v Speaker 1>and actually first got married. I think it's gonna be.

0:38:50.480 --> 0:38:53.000
<v Speaker 1>It just seems like a lot more fun to like

0:38:53.160 --> 0:38:56.239
<v Speaker 1>talk to someone else about your partner and say my

0:38:56.280 --> 0:38:59.200
<v Speaker 1>wife instead of my girlfriend. That just seems cool to me,

0:38:59.360 --> 0:39:03.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, Yeah, I mean it is a lot cooler

0:39:03.440 --> 0:39:05.759
<v Speaker 1>saying your wife. Yeah. I don't know. So for that

0:39:05.840 --> 0:39:08.120
<v Speaker 1>reason alone, I'm like, sure, I'll freaking get married. I

0:39:08.160 --> 0:39:09.759
<v Speaker 1>guess I want to be able to walk around and

0:39:09.800 --> 0:39:11.879
<v Speaker 1>say I've got a wife. And especially because I wear

0:39:11.920 --> 0:39:14.680
<v Speaker 1>this ring on my finger, I know you're practically married anyway,

0:39:14.719 --> 0:39:16.320
<v Speaker 1>you might as well just make it official. Yes, But

0:39:16.360 --> 0:39:19.080
<v Speaker 1>I never know when I'm talking to someone that does

0:39:19.080 --> 0:39:22.560
<v Speaker 1>that I've just met, or someone that works I don't

0:39:22.560 --> 0:39:24.839
<v Speaker 1>know what a bank or something like that. I never know.

0:39:24.960 --> 0:39:28.560
<v Speaker 1>To be like if I say my girlfriend and they

0:39:28.600 --> 0:39:30.680
<v Speaker 1>see the ring on my finger and then they're gonna

0:39:30.680 --> 0:39:32.480
<v Speaker 1>be like, oh, this guy's married, but he's also got

0:39:32.480 --> 0:39:36.080
<v Speaker 1>a girlfriend. This scum back or do I or do

0:39:36.120 --> 0:39:38.960
<v Speaker 1>I then lie and say, yeah, my wife is in

0:39:39.000 --> 0:39:40.759
<v Speaker 1>the car. I just gotta get her something real quick,

0:39:40.760 --> 0:39:42.840
<v Speaker 1>because then I'm lying to them technically, you know, I

0:39:42.840 --> 0:39:46.960
<v Speaker 1>would yeah. I don't want them thinking, yeah, I wouldn't

0:39:46.960 --> 0:39:48.680
<v Speaker 1>want anybody thinking I have a girlfriend on the side,

0:39:48.800 --> 0:39:52.600
<v Speaker 1>and then I just publicly admitting it. I'll lie, yeah,

0:39:52.680 --> 0:39:55.120
<v Speaker 1>I know. It's it's a it's a thing. It's a

0:39:55.120 --> 0:39:57.839
<v Speaker 1>dilemma that I'm faced without, and so a marriage is

0:39:57.880 --> 0:39:59.400
<v Speaker 1>just the best way to kind of nipped in the

0:39:59.440 --> 0:40:02.520
<v Speaker 1>bud and uh, acts it all together. Or I could

0:40:02.520 --> 0:40:04.839
<v Speaker 1>just take the ring off, but at this point, if

0:40:04.840 --> 0:40:06.520
<v Speaker 1>I took the ring off, that'd be even I'd raise

0:40:06.520 --> 0:40:08.279
<v Speaker 1>a lot more red flags about why did I take

0:40:08.320 --> 0:40:10.200
<v Speaker 1>the ring off? So you should really tell Kalin why

0:40:10.239 --> 0:40:12.239
<v Speaker 1>you want to get married when she asked you, why

0:40:12.239 --> 0:40:14.720
<v Speaker 1>do you want to marry me? And you say, well, honestly, babe,

0:40:14.719 --> 0:40:17.200
<v Speaker 1>it's because every time I go to the fucking bank,

0:40:17.360 --> 0:40:22.120
<v Speaker 1>they and every single time I have to say whether

0:40:22.160 --> 0:40:24.040
<v Speaker 1>you're my girlfriend or a wife, and it's like, okay,

0:40:24.120 --> 0:40:26.520
<v Speaker 1>never mind, I'll just marrier, for God's sake, because I

0:40:26.560 --> 0:40:29.040
<v Speaker 1>go to the bank every every week. I can't keep

0:40:29.040 --> 0:40:31.000
<v Speaker 1>doing this with my life. I go to the bank

0:40:31.000 --> 0:40:32.719
<v Speaker 1>a lot. And it's funny too, actually, because this isn't

0:40:32.800 --> 0:40:35.239
<v Speaker 1>it's it happened to Klin as well. She started wearing

0:40:35.239 --> 0:40:37.480
<v Speaker 1>a ring on her ring finger that looks like a

0:40:37.480 --> 0:40:40.520
<v Speaker 1>wedding ring because she didn't like it looking like she

0:40:40.680 --> 0:40:43.520
<v Speaker 1>was out with a married man. So then she started

0:40:43.520 --> 0:40:47.440
<v Speaker 1>wearing a ring. Why don't we just freaking sign the

0:40:47.440 --> 0:40:49.840
<v Speaker 1>paperwork that says really really married. The ring that you

0:40:50.000 --> 0:40:54.080
<v Speaker 1>started wearing with the best intentions have has ended up

0:40:54.120 --> 0:40:58.719
<v Speaker 1>just just being a nuisance? Right, Yeah? Can you believe that?

0:40:59.120 --> 0:41:01.520
<v Speaker 1>It's like as if I didn't first see this or

0:41:01.560 --> 0:41:04.120
<v Speaker 1>I didn't plan for this to happen. I wore a

0:41:04.120 --> 0:41:06.040
<v Speaker 1>fake wedding ring, and now all of a sudden, I

0:41:06.080 --> 0:41:08.920
<v Speaker 1>gutas start telling people I'm married. This is crazy, such bullshit.

0:41:09.880 --> 0:41:12.440
<v Speaker 1>All right, let's get to the second really quick. I

0:41:12.440 --> 0:41:15.239
<v Speaker 1>I write the stupid descriptions for this podcast, and I

0:41:15.239 --> 0:41:18.600
<v Speaker 1>can already imagine, Uh, Dean is taking off his wedding ring.

0:41:18.640 --> 0:41:20.480
<v Speaker 1>Find out what this means for his future with Kalin.

0:41:20.600 --> 0:41:24.040
<v Speaker 1>That's what that's going to say. Uh. This next one

0:41:24.120 --> 0:41:26.400
<v Speaker 1>is from Grace. I am twenty three years old and

0:41:26.400 --> 0:41:29.160
<v Speaker 1>I just moved to Arizona from California for my job.

0:41:29.520 --> 0:41:31.680
<v Speaker 1>I started dating my boyfriend about a year ago, and

0:41:31.800 --> 0:41:34.279
<v Speaker 1>two months ago he decided to move to Arizona to

0:41:34.280 --> 0:41:37.680
<v Speaker 1>be closer to me. That wasn't ever a discussion or

0:41:38.239 --> 0:41:40.160
<v Speaker 1>I think he just assumed that I would want this.

0:41:40.400 --> 0:41:42.640
<v Speaker 1>Don't get me wrong, it's super nice having him closer

0:41:42.640 --> 0:41:44.640
<v Speaker 1>to me. But since we started dating, he has been

0:41:44.680 --> 0:41:48.719
<v Speaker 1>losing friendships and sacrificing his relationships for me. I can't

0:41:48.719 --> 0:41:51.200
<v Speaker 1>help but feel responsible for this. Now that he has

0:41:51.200 --> 0:41:53.440
<v Speaker 1>moved to Arizona, he doesn't really stay in touch with

0:41:53.440 --> 0:41:56.160
<v Speaker 1>anyone anymore, and he's become part of my social group here.

0:41:56.600 --> 0:41:59.000
<v Speaker 1>Everything with us is so intertwined, and he doesn't have

0:41:59.080 --> 0:42:02.000
<v Speaker 1>his own friends or his own social life anymore. Of course,

0:42:02.040 --> 0:42:03.799
<v Speaker 1>I want him to be friends with my friends I've

0:42:03.800 --> 0:42:06.080
<v Speaker 1>made in Arizona, but it puts a lot of pressure

0:42:06.080 --> 0:42:09.120
<v Speaker 1>on me knowing my people are now his people. I

0:42:09.120 --> 0:42:11.359
<v Speaker 1>am just looking for advice on how to navigate this

0:42:11.400 --> 0:42:13.520
<v Speaker 1>and bring this up to him without hurting his feelings.

0:42:14.160 --> 0:42:20.480
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm uh. Grace First of all, thank you for

0:42:20.520 --> 0:42:24.240
<v Speaker 1>listening to the podcast. It would appear to me, though,

0:42:24.800 --> 0:42:28.600
<v Speaker 1>that maybe you don't want to date this guy. I

0:42:28.600 --> 0:42:31.319
<v Speaker 1>mean this, this guy moved closer to be with you.

0:42:31.920 --> 0:42:38.080
<v Speaker 1>He's trying to insert himself with your friends, which I

0:42:38.120 --> 0:42:41.319
<v Speaker 1>think every partner wants. It was important to me I

0:42:41.360 --> 0:42:45.879
<v Speaker 1>wanted Ashley to become really close with my friends. Uh So,

0:42:46.200 --> 0:42:51.360
<v Speaker 1>I don't really know what he's doing wrong, because it

0:42:51.480 --> 0:42:54.520
<v Speaker 1>makes it sound like you didn't want him to move closer,

0:42:55.200 --> 0:43:01.440
<v Speaker 1>which doesn't sound like the best for a healthier and

0:43:01.880 --> 0:43:07.480
<v Speaker 1>mutually loving relationship. But I just think I don't know.

0:43:08.080 --> 0:43:10.439
<v Speaker 1>I'm I'm kind of I'm kind of on the boyfriend's side.

0:43:10.440 --> 0:43:14.600
<v Speaker 1>I'm sorry, Chris, I uh sorry. I did this girl

0:43:14.600 --> 0:43:16.840
<v Speaker 1>in high school. Storytime, storytime, real quick. I did this

0:43:16.880 --> 0:43:19.560
<v Speaker 1>girl in high school. Oh. I was madly in love

0:43:19.600 --> 0:43:21.120
<v Speaker 1>with first love of my life. I've talked about on

0:43:21.160 --> 0:43:24.120
<v Speaker 1>this podcast a few times. For madly in love with

0:43:24.120 --> 0:43:25.840
<v Speaker 1>this girl. She was the most popular girl in school.

0:43:25.880 --> 0:43:28.200
<v Speaker 1>She was the coolest girl in school that I had

0:43:28.239 --> 0:43:31.279
<v Speaker 1>ever met at the time. She she was dating this

0:43:31.320 --> 0:43:34.279
<v Speaker 1>guy who is older than me, but so her and

0:43:34.280 --> 0:43:35.360
<v Speaker 1>I were in the same grade. This guy was like

0:43:35.360 --> 0:43:37.160
<v Speaker 1>two years older than us, once to the same school

0:43:37.200 --> 0:43:40.759
<v Speaker 1>and everything. Um, her and I were like really good friends,

0:43:40.800 --> 0:43:41.799
<v Speaker 1>and I would go over to her house all the

0:43:41.840 --> 0:43:44.200
<v Speaker 1>time to hang out like just as friends, you know,

0:43:44.280 --> 0:43:46.439
<v Speaker 1>like as kids do like what I don't know, jump

0:43:46.440 --> 0:43:48.640
<v Speaker 1>on the trampoline and that kind of stuff. And I

0:43:48.680 --> 0:43:52.000
<v Speaker 1>remember her telling me, I'm going to call the guy.

0:43:52.200 --> 0:43:55.560
<v Speaker 1>Let's call the guy Leo, just for you know, to

0:43:55.640 --> 0:43:58.479
<v Speaker 1>keep docs to the names or to described the names.

0:43:58.920 --> 0:44:02.120
<v Speaker 1>So she would say, uh, Leo's blowing off his friends

0:44:02.120 --> 0:44:05.840
<v Speaker 1>again to come hang out with me, or Leo canceled

0:44:06.000 --> 0:44:08.000
<v Speaker 1>his plan to have all his friends come over, and

0:44:08.000 --> 0:44:10.560
<v Speaker 1>he's like coming over to have dinner at my house tonight.

0:44:11.000 --> 0:44:12.319
<v Speaker 1>And in the back of my head, I'm like, these

0:44:12.360 --> 0:44:16.200
<v Speaker 1>sound like good things, Like he's canceling plans to hang

0:44:16.200 --> 0:44:18.719
<v Speaker 1>out with you, like he's making you a priority. And

0:44:18.800 --> 0:44:22.040
<v Speaker 1>she goes, no, I don't want you to cancel your plans.

0:44:22.080 --> 0:44:23.879
<v Speaker 1>I don't want you to like blow your friends off

0:44:23.880 --> 0:44:27.880
<v Speaker 1>to hang out with me. And for some reason that

0:44:28.080 --> 0:44:30.239
<v Speaker 1>like it was like literally one thirty second interaction that

0:44:30.280 --> 0:44:32.239
<v Speaker 1>I had with this girl when I was fifteen years

0:44:32.239 --> 0:44:35.720
<v Speaker 1>old that has always stuck with me because I agree

0:44:35.920 --> 0:44:38.680
<v Speaker 1>like I don't want I don't want you to drop

0:44:38.719 --> 0:44:43.440
<v Speaker 1>everything and come hang out with me, you know, like

0:44:43.480 --> 0:44:44.759
<v Speaker 1>I want you to have your own life, your own

0:44:44.760 --> 0:44:49.160
<v Speaker 1>social life, your own like priorities and things. I don't

0:44:49.200 --> 0:44:50.920
<v Speaker 1>want you to like at the drop of a hat

0:44:51.000 --> 0:44:52.520
<v Speaker 1>come and rush to my side and blow all your

0:44:52.560 --> 0:44:54.719
<v Speaker 1>friends off. And I don't know why. I don't know

0:44:54.760 --> 0:44:57.120
<v Speaker 1>why this girl that I was friends with at the

0:44:57.120 --> 0:44:59.839
<v Speaker 1>time saying that I stuck with me so much even

0:45:00.000 --> 0:45:02.520
<v Speaker 1>on now and thirty years old, literally half of my

0:45:02.560 --> 0:45:06.879
<v Speaker 1>life fifteen years later. Um, but it did. It made

0:45:06.920 --> 0:45:08.440
<v Speaker 1>sense to me in the sense where I was like, yeah, like,

0:45:08.480 --> 0:45:12.640
<v Speaker 1>have your own stuff going on, and don't just uh

0:45:12.800 --> 0:45:14.640
<v Speaker 1>lean so heavy on the relationship. I don't know. Is

0:45:14.680 --> 0:45:17.279
<v Speaker 1>that weird? Not weird at all, Totally get it. There's

0:45:17.280 --> 0:45:20.719
<v Speaker 1>a balance to be had. Having said that, did her

0:45:20.840 --> 0:45:24.319
<v Speaker 1>and Leo end up lasting? Uh No, she broke up

0:45:24.320 --> 0:45:26.760
<v Speaker 1>with him three months later and then he started dating shocking.

0:45:27.360 --> 0:45:30.000
<v Speaker 1>Uh So My point being is that maybe if you

0:45:30.040 --> 0:45:32.920
<v Speaker 1>don't want someone inserting themselves into your life more, it's

0:45:32.960 --> 0:45:34.960
<v Speaker 1>because you don't want them to be a part of

0:45:35.000 --> 0:45:37.960
<v Speaker 1>your But now there's a balance. Of course, you don't

0:45:37.960 --> 0:45:40.600
<v Speaker 1>want somebody too clinging, or someone who only wants to

0:45:40.640 --> 0:45:42.319
<v Speaker 1>be with you and has no part of their own life.

0:45:42.360 --> 0:45:45.959
<v Speaker 1>But like with Grace's example, I mean, she moved from

0:45:46.280 --> 0:45:50.960
<v Speaker 1>California to Arizona and her boyfriend, where they've dated for

0:45:51.000 --> 0:45:54.000
<v Speaker 1>a year, decided to move closer. It's not like he

0:45:54.080 --> 0:45:57.800
<v Speaker 1>moved in with her. He moved closer and he's trying

0:45:57.800 --> 0:46:00.239
<v Speaker 1>to insert his like. I guess my question it is,

0:46:00.280 --> 0:46:03.480
<v Speaker 1>what's the alternative? You know, this guy doesn't move closer,

0:46:03.560 --> 0:46:05.560
<v Speaker 1>he doesn't want to be friends with your friends. Isn't

0:46:05.600 --> 0:46:09.680
<v Speaker 1>that far worse than what's going on right now? I

0:46:09.719 --> 0:46:11.680
<v Speaker 1>think you nailed it on the head that Grace just

0:46:11.719 --> 0:46:13.880
<v Speaker 1>does not really like the guy very much. Because if

0:46:13.880 --> 0:46:15.319
<v Speaker 1>your head over heels in love with the guy, you're

0:46:15.320 --> 0:46:17.200
<v Speaker 1>gonna be excited for all these things. But if you're

0:46:17.680 --> 0:46:20.719
<v Speaker 1>on the fence and you're uncertain about your relationship, then

0:46:20.920 --> 0:46:23.920
<v Speaker 1>they're going to kind of turn you off. Yeah. I

0:46:23.960 --> 0:46:26.120
<v Speaker 1>don't know, so, Grace, you're twenty three, you're pretty young.

0:46:26.400 --> 0:46:28.160
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I hope at last, I hope that you're

0:46:28.200 --> 0:46:30.360
<v Speaker 1>madly in love and then you get married to this guy.

0:46:30.400 --> 0:46:34.680
<v Speaker 1>But I don't know if you're concerned about him being

0:46:34.760 --> 0:46:38.040
<v Speaker 1>too much. Then I don't know, maybe it's time to

0:46:38.080 --> 0:46:40.799
<v Speaker 1>look for something different. And for the record, Jared back

0:46:40.840 --> 0:46:42.840
<v Speaker 1>to the Leo conversation real quick. Yeah, they broke up

0:46:42.880 --> 0:46:45.600
<v Speaker 1>three months later, and then her and I started dating.

0:46:45.600 --> 0:46:48.399
<v Speaker 1>But then nine months later, while we were still dating,

0:46:48.440 --> 0:46:50.880
<v Speaker 1>found her back in bed with Leo, so there was

0:46:50.920 --> 0:46:54.319
<v Speaker 1>still something there. Yeah, I mean this sounds like a

0:46:54.360 --> 0:46:58.040
<v Speaker 1>her problem, not a Leo problem. Yeah. I appreciate that

0:46:58.200 --> 0:47:02.600
<v Speaker 1>I've developed a complex because of it. Slashed into adulthood. Um,

0:47:02.760 --> 0:47:03.920
<v Speaker 1>as you can see, I put a lot of weight

0:47:03.960 --> 0:47:05.520
<v Speaker 1>on the things she's told me when I was a

0:47:05.560 --> 0:47:08.040
<v Speaker 1>sophomore in high tea. And yeah, it's crazy how certain

0:47:08.080 --> 0:47:11.160
<v Speaker 1>things just stick with you, isn't it Like the most random,

0:47:11.400 --> 0:47:14.840
<v Speaker 1>miniscule thing ends up like changing your perception on life?

0:47:15.280 --> 0:47:18.279
<v Speaker 1>Oh definitely. And this conversation isn't even the last time.

0:47:18.800 --> 0:47:21.680
<v Speaker 1>For the first time I've thought about that conversation like it.

0:47:21.680 --> 0:47:23.960
<v Speaker 1>It doesn't happen often, but it happens way more than

0:47:24.040 --> 0:47:26.200
<v Speaker 1>a one off conversation should that you have when you're

0:47:26.200 --> 0:47:28.600
<v Speaker 1>fifteen years old. I think about it way more than

0:47:28.640 --> 0:47:32.680
<v Speaker 1>I should. Lingers, how old I am? Um? All right, Well,

0:47:32.719 --> 0:47:35.279

0:48:48.920 --> 0:48:51.040
<v Speaker 1>to do. I mean I obviously do a lot of

0:48:51.040 --> 0:48:54.080
<v Speaker 1>administration work. So you know, everybody that goes in wants

0:48:54.080 --> 0:48:55.600
<v Speaker 1>to talk to me just as the owner, you know,

0:48:55.719 --> 0:48:58.799
<v Speaker 1>I'm and also being from the show and having a

0:48:58.840 --> 0:49:01.760
<v Speaker 1>little bit of a I don't want to say celebrity status,

0:49:01.760 --> 0:49:03.399
<v Speaker 1>but I don't know how it's a phraser right now.

0:49:03.560 --> 0:49:05.640
<v Speaker 1>You know, people come in and they're like, hey, is Jared.

0:49:05.680 --> 0:49:08.000
<v Speaker 1>Here's Jared here, and they either they're fans of the

0:49:08.040 --> 0:49:09.760
<v Speaker 1>show and they want to talk to me or there

0:49:09.800 --> 0:49:12.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, other small businesses that are like, hey, we

0:49:13.040 --> 0:49:16.040
<v Speaker 1>have this wine product, we'd be interested in you selling it.

0:49:16.760 --> 0:49:19.480
<v Speaker 1>But then also just doing a ton of you know,

0:49:19.680 --> 0:49:23.640
<v Speaker 1>administrative work with just running a business, which takes so

0:49:23.719 --> 0:49:26.120
<v Speaker 1>much time. But then also while I'm there, you know,

0:49:26.719 --> 0:49:30.040
<v Speaker 1>making sure that customers are happy and employees are happy,

0:49:30.120 --> 0:49:32.600
<v Speaker 1>and you know, being behind the counter and making coffee

0:49:32.680 --> 0:49:34.840
<v Speaker 1>or making drinks or going in the kitchen and making

0:49:34.840 --> 0:49:37.640
<v Speaker 1>food or prepping or washing dishes or sweeping or doing

0:49:37.680 --> 0:49:39.200
<v Speaker 1>whatever I need to do to make sure that the

0:49:39.200 --> 0:49:41.279
<v Speaker 1>business is afloat. So that's kind of what I do

0:49:41.320 --> 0:49:43.359
<v Speaker 1>when I'm there. It's crazy, it's all over the place,

0:49:43.400 --> 0:49:47.120
<v Speaker 1>and it's so I know you're I don't named a

0:49:47.120 --> 0:49:51.680
<v Speaker 1>lot of drinks after um like bachelor euphemisms and and

0:49:52.360 --> 0:49:55.320
<v Speaker 1>even contestants. I think, right, what's the most popular Who's

0:49:55.320 --> 0:49:57.920
<v Speaker 1>got the most popular drink? So we don't have any contestants.

0:49:58.000 --> 0:50:00.000
<v Speaker 1>But damn, that's a good idea. We really should start

0:49:59.840 --> 0:50:02.359
<v Speaker 1>get into that. I thought there was like the Ben

0:50:02.719 --> 0:50:06.719
<v Speaker 1>or like the Nick. Uh No, we were joking about

0:50:06.719 --> 0:50:10.120
<v Speaker 1>how we should name drinks from people like Nick's would

0:50:10.160 --> 0:50:13.400
<v Speaker 1>be just like a plain black coffee. Uh, that's all,

0:50:13.480 --> 0:50:16.400
<v Speaker 1>mind would be. Come on, No, you have more flavor,

0:50:16.480 --> 0:50:19.480
<v Speaker 1>You've got more. We gotta give Nick a plain black coffee.

0:50:19.520 --> 0:50:22.480
<v Speaker 1>I think Nick should be like, uh like nine pumps

0:50:22.480 --> 0:50:26.839
<v Speaker 1>of almond milk and one pump of espresso. All right,

0:50:26.840 --> 0:50:29.239
<v Speaker 1>I can do that. I like that. Uh so one

0:50:29.239 --> 0:50:34.040
<v Speaker 1>of ours. So we carry Generous coffee, which is Ben's coffee,

0:50:34.360 --> 0:50:37.600
<v Speaker 1>and his dark roast is called the Higgins. He named

0:50:37.600 --> 0:50:40.520
<v Speaker 1>it after him, the selfish son of a bitch. Uh.

0:50:40.840 --> 0:50:44.080
<v Speaker 1>It's literally called the Higgins but it's also a really

0:50:44.080 --> 0:50:46.719
<v Speaker 1>good marketing employee. Obviously. But we have so some of

0:50:46.719 --> 0:50:50.040
<v Speaker 1>our specialty drinks. One is called the Rose Ceremony. We

0:50:50.120 --> 0:50:53.400
<v Speaker 1>also have a Trip to Paradise. And then my favorite

0:50:53.480 --> 0:50:56.319
<v Speaker 1>drink name is take a Moment, Say You're Goodbyes. So

0:50:56.400 --> 0:50:59.120
<v Speaker 1>that's always fun. When what does it like, take a moment,

0:50:59.160 --> 0:51:01.200
<v Speaker 1>say You're goodbyes. That's the name of the drink. So

0:51:01.239 --> 0:51:04.640
<v Speaker 1>people were like, I'll take a small hot um, take

0:51:04.680 --> 0:51:07.719
<v Speaker 1>a Moment? Sare your goodbyes? Like, yep, do you want

0:51:07.719 --> 0:51:09.440
<v Speaker 1>whole milk on the milk? Do you just like the

0:51:09.520 --> 0:51:11.200
<v Speaker 1>name of it or do you actually like the coffee

0:51:11.400 --> 0:51:15.440
<v Speaker 1>that is? I mean I like all of them. My favorite,

0:51:15.440 --> 0:51:19.000
<v Speaker 1>probably the most popular one is the most dramatic Moca ever,

0:51:19.200 --> 0:51:21.239
<v Speaker 1>because moke is just really popular. It's a coconut and

0:51:21.719 --> 0:51:26.640
<v Speaker 1>it's a coconut moca ice latte. Um. I was gonna say,

0:51:26.680 --> 0:51:30.080
<v Speaker 1>you guys do ice drinks? Oh yeah, so we have ice,

0:51:30.520 --> 0:51:34.560
<v Speaker 1>We have ice hot obviously, we do beer one and liquor.

0:51:34.920 --> 0:51:37.560
<v Speaker 1>Our food is really good. We have a preciot o

0:51:37.640 --> 0:51:40.719
<v Speaker 1>brie and a rugless sandwich that's pretty bomb. Have you

0:51:40.719 --> 0:51:43.040
<v Speaker 1>introduced aawston to the coffee shop yet. Yeah, he's been

0:51:43.040 --> 0:51:44.440
<v Speaker 1>there a couple of times. He was there for trivia

0:51:44.480 --> 0:51:48.120
<v Speaker 1>Wednesday night, so because Ashley came and so she has

0:51:48.160 --> 0:51:50.320
<v Speaker 1>a little carrier for him, so she just walks around

0:51:50.320 --> 0:51:54.000
<v Speaker 1>and he's question, this might be this is just so random,

0:51:54.000 --> 0:51:56.759
<v Speaker 1>and I'm I'm just brain farting everything out right now.

0:51:57.200 --> 0:51:59.839
<v Speaker 1>Let's say you and actually are out with Dawson and uh,

0:52:00.000 --> 0:52:01.239
<v Speaker 1>a fan of the show comes up and sees you,

0:52:01.280 --> 0:52:03.600
<v Speaker 1>guys wants to take a photo. Do you Is Dawson

0:52:03.680 --> 0:52:05.000
<v Speaker 1>in the photo or is it kind of like one

0:52:05.000 --> 0:52:08.239
<v Speaker 1>of those things where he's not in the photos. I mean,

0:52:08.280 --> 0:52:10.560
<v Speaker 1>if we're holding him, then yeah, he's in the pod. Okay,

0:52:10.600 --> 0:52:13.200
<v Speaker 1>that's I mean, yeah, yeah, I guess we haven't really

0:52:13.200 --> 0:52:16.960
<v Speaker 1>thought about that. Well. Some people are like really like particular,

0:52:17.080 --> 0:52:20.040
<v Speaker 1>like you can't take a picture of my baby, you know. Yeah,

0:52:20.200 --> 0:52:21.840
<v Speaker 1>I guess that. No. I mean because we've posted on

0:52:22.320 --> 0:52:25.080
<v Speaker 1>Instagram and things of that nature, so like people know

0:52:25.120 --> 0:52:28.560
<v Speaker 1>what he looks like. But he's doing well, he's awesome.

0:52:28.800 --> 0:52:33.319
<v Speaker 1>He's starting to smile, which is really cool. Uh. He

0:52:33.440 --> 0:52:35.640
<v Speaker 1>laughs in his sleep. Sometimes he has like a little

0:52:35.680 --> 0:52:38.239
<v Speaker 1>bit like yesterday I was holding him and he was

0:52:38.280 --> 0:52:40.759
<v Speaker 1>definitely dreaming of something, and he had like a little

0:52:40.800 --> 0:52:43.520
<v Speaker 1>bit of a uh not like a full belly laugh,

0:52:43.560 --> 0:52:46.320
<v Speaker 1>but he was like a and it would just lasted

0:52:46.320 --> 0:52:49.200
<v Speaker 1>for a second, but it was really cool saying, uh,

0:52:49.520 --> 0:52:52.200
<v Speaker 1>and when he smiles, you'res just you'res watching him sleep

0:52:52.239 --> 0:52:55.320
<v Speaker 1>at this point. Uh. Sometimes, well, when we're feeding him,

0:52:55.360 --> 0:52:58.040
<v Speaker 1>you know, because he takes like it's crazy, man. I

0:52:58.080 --> 0:52:59.600
<v Speaker 1>mean he takes like a half hour to finish a

0:52:59.600 --> 0:53:01.640
<v Speaker 1>bottle because it's like, you know, he's sucking for a

0:53:01.680 --> 0:53:03.360
<v Speaker 1>while and then he'll slow down and kind of like

0:53:03.360 --> 0:53:05.399
<v Speaker 1>fade in and out, and then you have to burp

0:53:05.520 --> 0:53:08.160
<v Speaker 1>them and you know, so it takes him about about

0:53:08.200 --> 0:53:10.759
<v Speaker 1>half hour to finish five ounces. So people were like, oh,

0:53:10.800 --> 0:53:12.120
<v Speaker 1>you just feed him and put him back to bed,

0:53:12.120 --> 0:53:17.160
<v Speaker 1>and you're like, no, it's a fucking process. Um. So yeah,

0:53:17.320 --> 0:53:20.239
<v Speaker 1>he uh So when I was feeding him and I

0:53:20.280 --> 0:53:21.880
<v Speaker 1>took the bottle lot and he's kind of like in

0:53:21.960 --> 0:53:23.479
<v Speaker 1>and out, and then he fell asleep for a second.

0:53:23.520 --> 0:53:25.560
<v Speaker 1>So I was watching him and then I saw him

0:53:25.600 --> 0:53:28.360
<v Speaker 1>like I saw his like lip like kind of twitching,

0:53:28.480 --> 0:53:30.120
<v Speaker 1>and so I was like I always kind of like grinning,

0:53:30.640 --> 0:53:32.799
<v Speaker 1>and then that's when he did like a full belly laugh.

0:53:32.880 --> 0:53:36.239
<v Speaker 1>And it was cool because as I was watching him,

0:53:36.719 --> 0:53:41.200
<v Speaker 1>I've seen obviously baby pictures of myself, and when he smiled,

0:53:41.360 --> 0:53:43.719
<v Speaker 1>he looked a lot like me as a baby, and

0:53:43.760 --> 0:53:46.400
<v Speaker 1>that was really cool. Nice, that's pretty cool. Yeah, that

0:53:46.440 --> 0:53:49.960
<v Speaker 1>was funny. Is he uh? I have known nothing about babies.

0:53:50.000 --> 0:53:52.600
<v Speaker 1>Is he crawling around yet? Not yet? So we do

0:53:52.719 --> 0:53:56.920
<v Speaker 1>tummy time, uh, to strengthen his neck because obviously his

0:53:57.000 --> 0:53:58.920
<v Speaker 1>head is still very wobbily, but he's able to hold

0:53:58.920 --> 0:54:00.480
<v Speaker 1>it up a little bit better now and it gets

0:54:00.520 --> 0:54:03.080
<v Speaker 1>progressively better with each day. So tell me. Time is

0:54:03.120 --> 0:54:04.920
<v Speaker 1>something where we put him on his stomach and you

0:54:05.120 --> 0:54:07.320
<v Speaker 1>kind of like put his arms underneath his chest, almost

0:54:07.320 --> 0:54:09.920
<v Speaker 1>like he's doing a plank, and then like he holds

0:54:09.920 --> 0:54:12.560
<v Speaker 1>his head up and like he just you know, it's

0:54:12.600 --> 0:54:17.560
<v Speaker 1>the cutest thing ever. Man. Uh. So he's not crawling yet, Um,

0:54:18.200 --> 0:54:20.120
<v Speaker 1>I don't think. I don't think they start crawling until

0:54:20.200 --> 0:54:24.279
<v Speaker 1>like I don't even know when six months, Like it's

0:54:24.320 --> 0:54:29.960
<v Speaker 1>a while, I think, Um, but it's cool seeing the

0:54:30.000 --> 0:54:33.680
<v Speaker 1>little progressions. It's just gonna suck one day because it's

0:54:33.719 --> 0:54:36.440
<v Speaker 1>so much fun and then one day he's just going

0:54:36.520 --> 0:54:38.840
<v Speaker 1>to be a teenager and you're like, oh, God, just

0:54:39.000 --> 0:54:42.799
<v Speaker 1>you were so much cooler as a kid. Yeah, but

0:54:42.840 --> 0:54:45.120
<v Speaker 1>I bet you, I bet you when he becomes a

0:54:45.160 --> 0:54:48.800
<v Speaker 1>teenager in fourteen years, you're gonna you're gonna have a

0:54:48.840 --> 0:54:51.600
<v Speaker 1>different tune about it. Because we're obviously recording this podcast,

0:54:51.680 --> 0:54:54.520
<v Speaker 1>you know what I mean. You can, you can update

0:54:54.600 --> 0:54:56.319
<v Speaker 1>us along the way, but I just be like, and

0:54:56.719 --> 0:54:59.160
<v Speaker 1>I have no idea how, how or what it will

0:54:59.200 --> 0:55:00.879
<v Speaker 1>be like, but I just be like, since you're gonna

0:55:00.880 --> 0:55:06.239
<v Speaker 1>see him basically every single day, you basically well not

0:55:06.360 --> 0:55:08.320
<v Speaker 1>even know the difference. You know, like you're still probably

0:55:08.320 --> 0:55:10.040
<v Speaker 1>gonna look at him and see that little baby that

0:55:10.080 --> 0:55:12.800
<v Speaker 1>was just smirking in his sleep last night, you know, yeah,

0:55:12.840 --> 0:55:15.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean we've noticed, we started noticing the difference though,

0:55:15.680 --> 0:55:18.120
<v Speaker 1>because it's just you can tell that he's much bigger

0:55:18.120 --> 0:55:21.960
<v Speaker 1>than he was a month ago. And even clothing. Clothing

0:55:22.040 --> 0:55:24.800
<v Speaker 1>is obviously a very easy telltale sign. Like we're putting

0:55:24.880 --> 0:55:26.879
<v Speaker 1>him in in onesies that he was wearing two weeks

0:55:26.880 --> 0:55:30.840
<v Speaker 1>ago and now it's tighter. You're like, oh, jess Us, like,

0:55:30.920 --> 0:55:33.879
<v Speaker 1>I can't believe you're already growing out of clothes. Man.

<v Speaker 1>mom and dad watched him, which was really nice. Uh

0:55:52.280 --> 0:55:56.560
<v Speaker 1>and then they watched him. Oh, we had a watch

0:55:56.600 --> 0:56:01.200
<v Speaker 1>party at Audrey's for the Bachelor finale that actually came

0:56:01.239 --> 0:56:04.760
<v Speaker 1>to um and obviously I was there, so my parents

0:56:04.760 --> 0:56:06.440
<v Speaker 1>watched him for that night, which is really nice. So

0:56:06.480 --> 0:56:09.759
<v Speaker 1>it wasn't a date night but um, but we did

0:56:09.760 --> 0:56:11.839
<v Speaker 1>have one day night where we get to go out

0:56:11.920 --> 0:56:13.920
<v Speaker 1>and my parents watched him, and then we went out

0:56:13.920 --> 0:56:16.759
<v Speaker 1>to dinner with two for Ashley's birthday. I forgot about

0:56:16.800 --> 0:56:19.760
<v Speaker 1>that. That That was March six, so um and my parents

0:56:19.760 --> 0:56:21.440
<v Speaker 1>watched him then too. I'm sure it's gonna be nice

0:56:21.440 --> 0:56:22.719
<v Speaker 1>for you guys will be able to step away and

0:56:22.719 --> 0:56:23.960
<v Speaker 1>I have to worry about the baby for a couple

0:56:23.960 --> 0:56:26.680
<v Speaker 1>of hours. Yeah. Oh, it's really nice. I mean, we

0:56:26.760 --> 0:56:28.440
<v Speaker 1>miss him. All we do is talk about him. Now

0:56:29.160 --> 0:56:31.960
<v Speaker 1>we are those parents. But um, but it is really

0:56:32.080 --> 0:56:35.640
<v Speaker 1>nice to just be able to like, Okay, let's we

0:56:35.719 --> 0:56:39.000
<v Speaker 1>can we can do things, you know, and not have

0:56:39.120 --> 0:56:41.680
<v Speaker 1>to worry because it is. It's crazy, man, like everything

0:56:41.719 --> 0:56:43.920
<v Speaker 1>you know, it's just when he's home, when you're home

0:56:43.960 --> 0:56:47.479
<v Speaker 1>with him, like he is such a priority for good

0:56:47.520 --> 0:56:51.480
<v Speaker 1>reason that everything is just secondary. So you it's difficult

0:56:51.480 --> 0:56:54.000
<v Speaker 1>getting anything done because he's always you know, you put

0:56:54.040 --> 0:56:55.680
<v Speaker 1>him down for a few minutes and then he starts crying,

0:56:55.680 --> 0:56:57.680
<v Speaker 1>so you gotta pick him up and feed him or

0:56:58.080 --> 0:56:59.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, rock them, and then all of a sudden,

0:56:59.880 --> 0:57:02.440
<v Speaker 1>like four hours go by and you're like, jeez, how

0:57:02.520 --> 0:57:04.359
<v Speaker 1>is it already two o'clock in the afternoon. I haven't

0:57:04.360 --> 0:57:09.160
<v Speaker 1>done anything yet. Well, Jared, that's that's good man. I'm

0:57:09.160 --> 0:57:11.279
<v Speaker 1>glad things are going well. Um. I got one question

0:57:11.280 --> 0:57:13.920
<v Speaker 1>for you before we say official goodbyes or final goodbyes.

0:57:16.400 --> 0:57:21.880
<v Speaker 1>What does a liar do after he dies? What does

0:57:21.920 --> 0:57:30.680
<v Speaker 1>a liar do after he dies? I don't know. He

0:57:30.720 --> 0:57:34.400
<v Speaker 1>continues to lie in the afterlife. Come on, it's a

0:57:34.440 --> 0:57:40.120
<v Speaker 1>riddle from that man, Oh, what does a liar do?

0:57:41.760 --> 0:57:43.960
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what's the answer. I don't remember. He

0:57:44.200 --> 0:57:50.240
<v Speaker 1>lies still, that's right. I just remember the line because

0:57:50.240 --> 0:57:53.000
<v Speaker 1>it's from the trailer and it's so good, where he's like,

0:57:53.480 --> 0:57:59.000
<v Speaker 1>if you are justice, please do not lie and then

0:57:59.400 --> 0:58:01.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, how much do you think of the Riddler character?

0:58:01.440 --> 0:58:04.120
<v Speaker 1>Did you like him? Yeah, he's good. I liked I

0:58:04.160 --> 0:58:06.640
<v Speaker 1>liked Riddler. I thought he was a better part of

0:58:06.640 --> 0:58:11.960
<v Speaker 1>the movie. Um, you know Paul Dano. I. I thought

0:58:12.680 --> 0:58:18.160
<v Speaker 1>there were moments um where I I understand what Paul

0:58:18.200 --> 0:58:21.840
<v Speaker 1>dana was going for because he he wasn't just a psychopath,

0:58:21.880 --> 0:58:24.640
<v Speaker 1>but he was also like very eccentric and sometimes kind

0:58:24.640 --> 0:58:29.680
<v Speaker 1>of played him almost he wanted him to be a

0:58:29.760 --> 0:58:32.480
<v Speaker 1>little funny. I think I didn't know, so there were

0:58:32.480 --> 0:58:34.200
<v Speaker 1>moments where I was like, Okay, I'm not sure if

0:58:34.240 --> 0:58:36.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm down with that. But overall I really enjoyed the character.

0:58:36.920 --> 0:58:38.360
<v Speaker 1>But the problem was he wasn't in the movie as

0:58:38.440 --> 0:58:40.360
<v Speaker 1>much as I wanted him to be. It was like

0:58:40.400 --> 0:58:42.680
<v Speaker 1>there was a good chunk in the middle for like

0:58:42.720 --> 0:58:46.200
<v Speaker 1>an hour where just Riddler was not there. And I

0:58:46.240 --> 0:58:48.400
<v Speaker 1>was like, Okay, let's what I don't know, what I

0:58:48.400 --> 0:58:51.920
<v Speaker 1>don't understand, and help me understand this because after watching

0:58:51.920 --> 0:58:53.520
<v Speaker 1>the movie, I liked the movie. Don't get me wrong,

0:58:54.360 --> 0:58:57.760
<v Speaker 1>I in my head it seemed like the Riddler was

0:58:57.840 --> 0:59:01.520
<v Speaker 1>kind of a good guy. Well yeah, no spoilers, obviously,

0:59:01.560 --> 0:59:04.800
<v Speaker 1>no spoilers but one of the themes of the movie

0:59:04.840 --> 0:59:08.720
<v Speaker 1>that I really loved in Eastern I'm sure we'll agree

0:59:08.760 --> 0:59:14.240
<v Speaker 1>with this is that, you know, Batman's conundrum in the

0:59:14.280 --> 0:59:18.840
<v Speaker 1>movie is that I think he sees the Riddler's perspective

0:59:19.120 --> 0:59:22.120
<v Speaker 1>and point of view because you know, throughout the movie

0:59:22.120 --> 0:59:25.160
<v Speaker 1>and it's displayed in this This is not a spoiler, Riddlers.

0:59:25.680 --> 0:59:28.120
<v Speaker 1>You know, he's angry at a lot of people and

0:59:28.360 --> 0:59:31.320
<v Speaker 1>feel feels like the system has failed him, and I

0:59:31.360 --> 0:59:34.680
<v Speaker 1>think Batman doesn't disagree. And I think that's the conundrum

0:59:34.720 --> 0:59:38.360
<v Speaker 1>because they were both like, you know, going after vengeance

0:59:38.440 --> 0:59:41.240
<v Speaker 1>in a way. But well, that's the thing too. It's

0:59:41.280 --> 0:59:42.840
<v Speaker 1>like the Riddler a lot of the things he's doing

0:59:42.960 --> 0:59:46.480
<v Speaker 1>is like he's uh, you know, seeking out corruption, alleviating

0:59:46.480 --> 0:59:49.320
<v Speaker 1>the corruption. And sure maybe his methods are uh, a

0:59:49.360 --> 0:59:52.680
<v Speaker 1>little extreme, but he's basically doing exactly what Batman is

0:59:52.720 --> 0:59:55.760
<v Speaker 1>doing and wants to do. So, Like the whole time,

0:59:55.800 --> 1:00:00.920
<v Speaker 1>I was like kind of confused because what the Riddler

1:00:01.000 --> 1:00:03.280
<v Speaker 1>is doing is he's doing a good thing for the

1:00:03.320 --> 1:00:05.720
<v Speaker 1>city of Gotham, you know, like he is helping rid

1:00:05.760 --> 1:00:08.760
<v Speaker 1>the city of the corruption that it's dealing with. And

1:00:08.800 --> 1:00:11.360
<v Speaker 1>like I said, his methods are very extreme, and maybe

1:00:11.360 --> 1:00:13.760
<v Speaker 1>that's where Batman is like, Nope, sorry, not going to happen.

1:00:14.240 --> 1:00:16.720
<v Speaker 1>But it just seemed like they were both working, they

1:00:17.160 --> 1:00:21.320
<v Speaker 1>were both working in different ways towards the same goal. Yeah,

1:00:21.360 --> 1:00:23.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think that's one of the reasons why

1:00:23.080 --> 1:00:25.720
<v Speaker 1>I did really like the movie. Yeah, we're ending now.

1:00:25.840 --> 1:00:32.760
<v Speaker 1>She's like, are you talking about Batman on the podcast? Yeah,

1:00:32.800 --> 1:00:35.160
<v Speaker 1>Batman the Batman. The last thing I'll say about it

1:00:35.200 --> 1:00:37.280
<v Speaker 1>is that one I agree with you, Dean, which is

1:00:37.320 --> 1:00:39.560
<v Speaker 1>one of the reasons why I love superhero films if

1:00:39.600 --> 1:00:42.000
<v Speaker 1>they're done right, because I do feel like the line

1:00:42.040 --> 1:00:46.680
<v Speaker 1>between good and evil is pretty thin. You know, it's

1:00:46.720 --> 1:00:48.760
<v Speaker 1>closer than a lot of people think. They're like, oh,

1:00:48.920 --> 1:00:51.040
<v Speaker 1>good guys on this end and the bad guys on

1:00:51.080 --> 1:00:53.520
<v Speaker 1>this end, when really, you know, most of the time

1:00:53.560 --> 1:00:55.440
<v Speaker 1>they're kind of like right next to each other and

1:00:55.520 --> 1:00:58.000
<v Speaker 1>just one person is on the side of good and

1:00:58.040 --> 1:00:59.440
<v Speaker 1>the other person is on the side of bad. And

1:00:59.480 --> 1:01:02.120
<v Speaker 1>good and bad can be perspective or point of view,

1:01:02.600 --> 1:01:04.120
<v Speaker 1>and that's why I think one of the reasons why

1:01:04.160 --> 1:01:06.120
<v Speaker 1>I love one of the reasons why I did really

1:01:06.200 --> 1:01:08.840
<v Speaker 1>like this film is that they do really discuss the

1:01:08.880 --> 1:01:14.040
<v Speaker 1>idea of like of Batman and and and Batman saying

1:01:14.120 --> 1:01:18.120
<v Speaker 1>like what am I doing? You know? Is am I

1:01:18.200 --> 1:01:20.760
<v Speaker 1>doing the right thing? You know? Because you you know,

1:01:20.800 --> 1:01:22.960
<v Speaker 1>everybody's the hero of their own their own story. But

1:01:23.200 --> 1:01:25.320
<v Speaker 1>Batman has a little bit more self reflection, and he's like,

1:01:25.400 --> 1:01:28.320
<v Speaker 1>am I just am I the Riddler? You know? And

1:01:28.360 --> 1:01:32.400
<v Speaker 1>I just don't realize it so cool, like if you

1:01:32.400 --> 1:01:34.479
<v Speaker 1>look back at the Dark Knights, like Bain probably thought

1:01:34.520 --> 1:01:37.840
<v Speaker 1>he was the hero of the story. I don't know.

1:01:37.880 --> 1:01:43.280
<v Speaker 1>I just yeah, so about this Batman was it just

1:01:43.800 --> 1:01:45.800
<v Speaker 1>you're right, there's always that line that's being walked, and

1:01:45.800 --> 1:01:48.520
<v Speaker 1>it's a very fine line, but this one specifically, so

1:01:48.560 --> 1:01:53.240
<v Speaker 1>many times I found myself questioning, like while I Batman

1:01:53.320 --> 1:01:55.360
<v Speaker 1>was trying to stop Riddler, when like he could just

1:01:55.400 --> 1:01:57.520
<v Speaker 1>like be hands clean in the situation, let Rader do

1:01:57.560 --> 1:02:01.480
<v Speaker 1>what he's doing, help fix goth them, and then you

1:02:01.520 --> 1:02:02.920
<v Speaker 1>just kind of move in and do the things that

1:02:02.960 --> 1:02:04.360
<v Speaker 1>you need to do. Like it seems like they could

1:02:04.360 --> 1:02:07.400
<v Speaker 1>have worked opposite of each other and just ignored each

1:02:07.400 --> 1:02:09.600
<v Speaker 1>other altogether. But I know, Ridler kept calling for Batman

1:02:09.600 --> 1:02:11.360
<v Speaker 1>and all that kind of stuff. I don't know, it

1:02:11.440 --> 1:02:14.800
<v Speaker 1>just seemed like it's similar themes to The Dark Knight,

1:02:14.840 --> 1:02:16.640
<v Speaker 1>which is why I really like because I like the

1:02:16.640 --> 1:02:18.840
<v Speaker 1>themes in The Dark Knight as well, where Heath Ledgard.

1:02:18.920 --> 1:02:21.160
<v Speaker 1>Joker kind of goes into this a little bit as well,

1:02:21.200 --> 1:02:24.080
<v Speaker 1>where he talks about like the whole plan of society. Right,

1:02:24.080 --> 1:02:26.200
<v Speaker 1>He's like, if I say that I'm going to blow

1:02:26.320 --> 1:02:29.680
<v Speaker 1>up a truck full of soldiers, nobody panics, right, because

1:02:29.720 --> 1:02:32.280
<v Speaker 1>that's what happens. But if I say I'm going to

1:02:32.400 --> 1:02:36.360
<v Speaker 1>kill a mayor, then everybody loses their mind and chaos

1:02:36.360 --> 1:02:39.919
<v Speaker 1>and sues. And it's like that is an interesting point, right,

1:02:39.960 --> 1:02:43.640
<v Speaker 1>because if he says like he'll kill twenty soldiers, everyone's like, oh,

1:02:43.680 --> 1:02:46.360
<v Speaker 1>that's like terrorism. That's what happens. When when you watch

1:02:46.440 --> 1:02:48.600
<v Speaker 1>Dark Knight and you see Joker and you see Being,

1:02:48.880 --> 1:02:50.920
<v Speaker 1>you're like, wow, these guys are senselessly killing a lot

1:02:50.960 --> 1:02:53.600
<v Speaker 1>of innocent people, and you're like, wow, Okay, those are

1:02:53.600 --> 1:02:55.880
<v Speaker 1>the bad guys. But Riddler I didn't get that sense.

1:02:56.360 --> 1:02:59.000
<v Speaker 1>I feel like Riddler was giving people the things that

1:02:59.040 --> 1:03:02.680
<v Speaker 1>they deserved, and maybe maybe a little more than they deserved, sure,

1:03:02.720 --> 1:03:05.360
<v Speaker 1>but it was still guilty people that he was punishing.

1:03:06.000 --> 1:03:08.400
<v Speaker 1>Um Anyways, I just I just wanted to pick your

1:03:08.440 --> 1:03:10.560
<v Speaker 1>brain a little bit about it. I'm glad. I feel
