Now, I have never dated another fellow comedian 0:01:43.280 --> 0:01:46.520 before because it's always given me loads of red flags, 0:01:46.520 --> 0:01:48.920 to be honest, like I worry about like there being 0:01:49.000 --> 0:01:53.840 like competitivity. I worry about us not liking each other's comedy, 0:01:53.920 --> 0:01:56.040 which would happen a lot if I dated a male comedian, 0:01:56.040 --> 0:01:58.480 because a lot of men don't like my comedy, and 0:01:58.560 --> 0:01:59.960 so I've never done that before. 0:02:00.120 --> 0:02:01.440 But I was like, he's really good. 0:02:01.320 --> 0:02:04.320 Looking, and I was like, let me give this a while, 0:02:04.560 --> 0:02:07.680 because you know, maybe I'm wrong. 0:02:08.000 --> 0:02:10.440 Is he like established or is he literally just started? 0:02:10.480 --> 0:02:11.720 Has he done any gigs? 0:02:11.960 --> 0:02:13.240 He has just started? 0:02:13.360 --> 0:02:15.720 He had done the Adam of Fringe last year, but 0:02:15.840 --> 0:02:18.400 splitting the bill in like a pub you didn't google them. 0:02:18.639 --> 0:02:21.640 I didn't know his surname, Okay, okay, Yeah, so I 0:02:21.639 --> 0:02:24.760 didn't have much to go from. And that's the kind 0:02:24.800 --> 0:02:26.320 of thing with dating apps. I want to do, like 0:02:26.360 --> 0:02:29.399 a full background check before I meet someone. Yeah, on 0:02:29.440 --> 0:02:31.760 the hinge, you used to get someone's surname. Once you 0:02:31.840 --> 0:02:34.239 match them, you get their surname, but you don't. 0:02:34.000 --> 0:02:35.960 Know Okay, I've got a question here, Okay, as I've 0:02:36.000 --> 0:02:37.760 said multiple times here, I'm made of the game for 0:02:37.760 --> 0:02:38.519 a long long time. 0:02:38.960 --> 0:02:40.000 So on Hinge. 0:02:40.000 --> 0:02:41.639 You don't get their surname, so you can't do a 0:02:41.680 --> 0:02:43.440 full background of Porus. You can't know who their ex 0:02:43.520 --> 0:02:45.639 girlfriend is, where they grew up, a school they went into. 0:02:46.040 --> 0:02:48.800 How are you meant to know that they're like, okay. 0:02:48.680 --> 0:02:53.720 Not a serial killer? Yeah, I know, no honestly, but. 0:02:53.720 --> 0:02:56.160 I think that works for me in the sense that 0:02:56.280 --> 0:02:59.640 I'm glad people can't google me. I'm quite glad that 0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:02.680 we can meet maybe first if they don't know anything 0:03:02.680 --> 0:03:04.760 about me and like they don't just google me. And 0:03:04.800 --> 0:03:07.040 then the first thing it says is Alice the Camill's daughter, 0:03:07.160 --> 0:03:10.120 Like as my job. So I feel like it works 0:03:10.160 --> 0:03:12.639 in my favor as well. But I agree that it's 0:03:12.720 --> 0:03:16.240 kind of creepy because, especially with men, you want to 0:03:16.280 --> 0:03:20.720 know that they're not a like maybe a loser, or 0:03:20.840 --> 0:03:24.400 like have no friends, or like have dressed really badly. 0:03:24.480 --> 0:03:25.960 Like I want to be able to vet that from 0:03:26.000 --> 0:03:27.080 their social media. 0:03:27.240 --> 0:03:29.560 Anyways, I didn't look this guy up. I was like. 0:03:29.639 --> 0:03:30.680 Thinking the complete outset. 0:03:30.760 --> 0:03:31.800 I was like, you want to want to vet them 0:03:31.840 --> 0:03:34.040 to make sure that like they don't have any convictions 0:03:34.040 --> 0:03:35.840 against like have good style. 0:03:36.000 --> 0:03:36.200 They have. 0:03:38.720 --> 0:03:42.240 Honestly, my main thing is neck clothes. Oh my god. 0:03:42.280 --> 0:03:44.640 So okay, I'm fine if you have convictions, just don't 0:03:44.680 --> 0:03:49.880 wear unbranded trainers.
