A stiletto flies across the room, a wig slides off mid song, and the “doctor” flirting at the bar turns out to live in an extended stay hotel with four shirts and a personality that changes every ten minutes. Just a normal shift for Alexis, a strip club waitress who joins us to spill what nightlife and dating actually look like when the lights come on, and the lies get tired.

We get into slow nights, chaotic customers, and dating stories that make you question the entire male species for about fifteen minutes. There is the catfish who showed up late, trauma dumped before the appetizers, and somehow still “forgot” his wallet. Then the mystery scrubs guy whose life story unraveled faster than a cheap wig in a wind tunnel.

Between karaoke attempts, tooth collecting, and turning rats into tiny taxidermy art pieces, Alexis explains how she can spot a walking red flag in under three minutes and why the hottest move a woman can make is grabbing her purse and leaving when a man starts acting weird.

It is chaotic, hilarious, and a little flirty. Send this to your friend who keeps saying “but he seemed nice at first.”

00:00:00.959 --> 00:00:03.919
Oh my god, I just totally got catfished.

00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:06.080
He looks absolutely nothing like his picture.

00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:11.039
So I found out the guy that I've been dating is married with kids.

00:00:11.279 --> 00:00:13.679
His wife just reached out to me.

00:00:15.199 --> 00:00:16.480
Welcome to the Meat Market.

00:00:16.559 --> 00:00:19.440
The single scene is a slaughterhouse, and we are here to devour it.

00:00:19.519 --> 00:00:20.079
We are your hosts.

00:00:20.160 --> 00:00:20.719
I'm Lindsay.

00:00:20.800 --> 00:00:21.199
I'm Jess.

00:00:21.359 --> 00:00:23.440
And today's sizzling single is Alexis.

00:00:23.519 --> 00:00:23.839
Welcome.

00:00:24.000 --> 00:00:25.199
Hi, I'm Alexis.

00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:27.039
So you have.

00:00:28.719 --> 00:00:31.280
So you are a waitress at a strip club.

00:00:31.440 --> 00:00:33.600
What are the stories you must have?

00:00:34.799 --> 00:00:36.880
So, oh, I have some juicy ones.

00:00:36.960 --> 00:00:43.759
So not for my current club that I work at, but the first one I ever worked at, it was just run so crazy.

00:00:43.840 --> 00:00:47.359
They end up eventually losing the club, but that's another story.

00:00:47.520 --> 00:00:51.119
But some of the craziest stories that I've seen or experienced.

00:00:51.520 --> 00:00:59.759
I was leaving work one day and there's a dancer giving a laugh dance to a guy, and then a girl was getting walked out, and they must have had some kind of drama.

00:00:59.920 --> 00:01:08.079
Because as she was walking out and the girl was bent over, giving a dance, she pulls her hair and throws it to the ground while the guy's just on the chair, like, oh my god, wait, like, what's going on?

00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:09.439
Like, do I have to pay for this?

00:01:09.519 --> 00:01:10.719
Like, is it the scene?

00:01:11.200 --> 00:01:12.239
Yeah, it was crazy.

00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:15.120
So I was like, oh shit, now it's just waitressing, and I was like, oh my god.

00:01:15.200 --> 00:01:16.719
And this was like during the day.

00:01:16.959 --> 00:01:21.200
And another story, different girls, similar situation.

00:01:21.359 --> 00:01:25.439
There was a girl like dancing on the stage, and then a girl walked by, another dancer.

00:01:25.599 --> 00:01:31.120
And as a girl walked by, the one on stage grabbed her wig and snatched it off in front of everybody.

00:01:31.439 --> 00:01:31.519
Yeah.

00:01:31.760 --> 00:01:33.120
And then she was mortified.

00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:38.879
Yeah, she was mortified, and then she was just like, and I've never seen a girl pounce up into a stage.

00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:48.000
Like it was like superhero straight, like where she just like leaped on stage and then they go browning on the stage, going like this, and everyone just watching, like, oh fuck.

00:01:48.159 --> 00:01:52.879
Like and like then the bouncer would like jump in, grab them both, throw them into the locker room.

00:01:52.959 --> 00:01:53.439
Oh, yeah.

00:01:53.760 --> 00:01:55.840
Because he was like, take this out of here.

00:01:56.000 --> 00:01:57.920
And everyone was just like, oh my god, this is amazing.

00:01:58.000 --> 00:01:59.040
Like it was the craziest thing.

00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:03.280
I feel like that's the worst thing you can do to a woman in public is take off the wig, right?

00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:03.920
Absolutely.

00:02:04.239 --> 00:02:05.760
So what are all these strippers fight about?

00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:07.040
Is it over clients?

00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:07.760
I don't know.

00:02:07.840 --> 00:02:11.280
It must have been, but I was like new to waitressing at the club, so I was young.

00:02:11.360 --> 00:02:12.879
I didn't like have friends yet.

00:02:13.120 --> 00:02:18.960
But yeah, I was like, there must be something with clients, or like, yeah, maybe they're dating the same guy.

00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:22.800
Yeah, someone messed with somebody's money and like that's he's my client.

00:02:23.039 --> 00:02:23.680
Yeah, exactly.

00:02:23.759 --> 00:02:24.400
He's mine.

00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:37.120
And then there's one other time when I was working during the day, and it was only one customer just sitting out in the in the audience, and the girl was dancing on the stage, and then she swings so far that her shoe, her stiletto, flies.

00:02:37.360 --> 00:02:39.599
And it literally went right past him.

00:02:39.680 --> 00:02:42.000
Like it was a miracle that it didn't hit him in the eye.

00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:42.800
It was literally this close.

00:02:42.879 --> 00:02:47.520
And he was just sitting there, like minding his business, like even till he was not supposed to be there for his lunch break.

00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:52.719
And the stiletto went like full speed, and then he just, before I could even be like, Oh my god, are you okay?

00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:54.479
He just got up and left and I never saw him again.

00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:57.599
Like, I think he was like, This is my sign that I'm I need to not be here.

00:02:57.919 --> 00:02:59.280
Like my family will know.

00:02:59.520 --> 00:03:05.439
How would you feel like to go to a strip club and to walk in and you're the only person there?

00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:06.639
Is that kind of awkward?

00:03:06.879 --> 00:03:07.520
Wouldn't that be weird?

00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:10.240
I mean, I've experienced that when guys would come in and they're like, Oh, okay.

00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:11.360
We're like, oh come on, stay.

00:03:11.439 --> 00:03:12.960
Like, we've been waiting for you, and like, oh no, I'm good.

00:03:13.039 --> 00:03:15.599
Like, they think it's like an intervention and they like turn around so fast.

00:03:15.759 --> 00:03:17.919
It might be good because you get all the attention, right?

00:03:18.080 --> 00:03:18.560
Yeah.

00:03:18.800 --> 00:03:37.840
Yeah, but then you're you're also expected that like what if you don't like the dancer and you and you would prefer not to tip the dancer, but when you're the only person in there, it's like then you sort of have to because a lot of girls just end up leaving, or they'll be like, Where's everybody?

00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:40.240
I'm like, Oh, we got lots of girls working, no big deal.

00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:43.360
And he's like, No, and I'm like, Oh, I didn't know you were here to see the other guys.

00:03:43.439 --> 00:03:48.080
Like, it's you can just wait, like they'll come in and then they get kind of uncomfortable, but they usually just leave.

00:03:48.240 --> 00:03:50.479
They see the only one and they're like, This is a setup.

00:03:50.560 --> 00:03:54.080
Like, I'm they just turn around without even like asking questions.

00:03:54.319 --> 00:03:55.120
Oh, that's crazy.

00:03:55.759 --> 00:03:57.599
Do you get hit on a lot as the waitress?

00:03:58.639 --> 00:04:05.360
I mean, yeah, I do sometimes, but my my line is like when guys are hitting on me, they're like, Oh, you're the hottest girl here.

00:04:05.520 --> 00:04:16.879
I'm like, Oh, it's because I bring you gifts, because I bring beer and like alcohol, you know, but yeah, they hit on me, but I think it's just like I don't know, they maybe just because they see me the most, or it's the like taboo of like, oh, she's the one I can't have.

00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:17.199
Yeah.

00:04:17.439 --> 00:04:17.920
So I like it.

00:04:18.000 --> 00:04:19.920
Or it's just like the atmosphere of yeah, yeah.

00:04:20.240 --> 00:04:21.360
They feeling flirty, yeah.

00:04:21.519 --> 00:04:22.560
They want to hit on everybody.

00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:26.480
I'm sure they say it to everybody, but yeah, I get hit on sometimes, yeah.

00:04:26.800 --> 00:04:29.199
Why did you choose to waitress and not strip?

00:04:29.439 --> 00:04:33.360
Well, I started out waitressing when I was like 20 years old, and I was still really shy.

00:04:33.439 --> 00:04:37.120
I was honestly so shy before I got that job, and it helped me not be as shy.

00:04:37.279 --> 00:04:48.399
I think it was like the dim lighting mixed with just like all the compliments and this um being surrounded by other beautiful women and they're all like naked, so it's like less pressure on me, you know.

00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:49.680
Like no one's looking at me as much.

00:04:50.000 --> 00:04:53.120
Why choose waitressing at a strip club versus waitressing at a restaurant?

00:04:53.199 --> 00:04:56.160
Oh, I bet the money's like so much faster.

00:04:56.319 --> 00:05:13.920
Like you know, you get tipped for just being pretty or for waters or just walking by and checking on them, like referring girls to people, like yeah, the money's turnover is so much faster, and you don't have to do all that stinky side work, like the dishes, yeah, like dishes, silverware, yeah, like mopping the floors.

00:05:14.000 --> 00:05:19.120
Like I used to work at a Mexican restaurant and I had to do all that side work where I wouldn't want to do anything after work.

00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:23.600
I'd get out at like 11, but I just want to go home because I smell like food and it was just not good.

00:05:23.680 --> 00:05:26.319
And we had to do so much sidework that my back would be aching.

00:05:26.399 --> 00:05:29.279
And I'm like, So is there no side work at the strip club?

00:05:29.360 --> 00:05:30.959
You just show up, serve, and then that's it?

00:05:31.199 --> 00:05:34.000
Yeah, we just wipe down the tables, so like that's easy.

00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:39.360
Wipe down the tables and then just put the chairs nicely, neat, and then just count your money and that's it.

00:05:39.439 --> 00:05:40.000
So it's great.

00:05:40.399 --> 00:05:40.639
Nice.

00:05:40.879 --> 00:05:42.480
Yeah, yeah, it's not, it's very low.

00:05:42.800 --> 00:05:44.560
Count your dollar bills, ching ching.

00:05:45.360 --> 00:05:47.920
Cash my yeah, count my credit card tips, do all that stuff.

00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:48.319
It's fun.

00:05:48.639 --> 00:05:50.000
Does it make dating hard though?

00:05:50.399 --> 00:05:52.000
Do guys get upset?

00:05:53.120 --> 00:05:54.879
Even with just waitressing at a strip club?

00:05:55.199 --> 00:06:14.319
Even with just waitressing, because I feel like unless they know, like unless that they know someone in industry or I've been there, they think they just assume what they see in like movies of strip clubs, or they don't know of like strip clubs in, say, like Mexico or or other foreign countries where you can do anything you want for the right amount of money, and I'm like, that's not how it is.

00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:31.120
And just because I work in one doesn't mean that I'm like doing all that stuff that you see in the movies and I mean, really essentially what's different than working as a waitress at a strip club or working at the W where you're wearing a bikini and serving in a bikini, a bottle girl there, right?

00:06:31.279 --> 00:06:32.399
It's kind of this comparison.

00:06:32.720 --> 00:06:33.680
Yeah, I think it's the same.

00:06:33.759 --> 00:06:56.879
Um, I don't know, but also I've noticed like even guys that have been fine with it in the beginning, like while we're dating, over time I think they get insecure either because they find out maybe I make more money than them when I don't when I have to do way less work, or they just they just assume like you know, you're around other guys all the time that like have a lot of money and have more confidence that might try to swoop you away from me type thing.

00:06:57.199 --> 00:06:58.720
Well and the hours are hard too.

00:06:58.959 --> 00:06:59.360
Yeah, too.

00:07:00.079 --> 00:07:03.279
You have to kind of date someone who works similar hours to you, probably.

00:07:03.519 --> 00:07:04.000
Yeah, it's true.

00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:05.519
You work most nights.

00:07:05.680 --> 00:07:09.120
Yeah, I work the weekends too, Friday and Saturday nights and Wednesday nights.

00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:17.839
But yeah, the weekends make it hard because that's when most people like want to go out and do something, and I'm like, oh, I work every weekend, but we can hang out Sunday or Thursday or Monday.

00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:21.199
But are you allowed to disclose what club you work at?

00:07:21.600 --> 00:07:22.480
I don't think I should have.

00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:23.920
No, okay, that's fine, that's fine.

00:07:25.040 --> 00:07:29.519
Yeah, but this one's good, but the other ones were like the yeah.

00:07:29.680 --> 00:07:40.480
This one's like run by the right people and they pay a lot of attention and like girls can't gossip about each other, like they keep it very like high, like which it's like a high pedestal.

00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:44.560
So but the other clubs I've worked at they would just let anything go.

00:07:44.959 --> 00:07:50.800
I feel like that's important in a strip club to take care of the girls, you know, put them as a priority, make them feel safe and comfortable.

00:07:51.040 --> 00:07:55.279
The question is it like can you call say the word stripper now or is that derogatory?

00:07:55.439 --> 00:07:57.199
Do they prefer to be called dancers?

00:07:57.839 --> 00:07:58.240
Maybe.

00:07:58.319 --> 00:08:02.639
I mean, customers always say strippers, but I just say like entertainers or dancers.

00:08:03.040 --> 00:08:08.639
Okay, that's like the well, like then I say I work at a strip club, so it's like the same thing, but yeah, I think they don't mind.

00:08:08.959 --> 00:08:09.920
But they're stripping.

00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:14.879
Yeah, I just I I never knew if that was offensive to them saying that calling them a stripper.

00:08:15.519 --> 00:08:18.480
I never know either, but I know the girls I've sure refer to themselves as that too.

00:08:19.360 --> 00:08:20.319
It's just the way they say it.

00:08:20.639 --> 00:08:25.680
Also, a lot of them don't dance, they just kind of like walk back and forth and take their clothes off.

00:08:25.920 --> 00:08:26.560
That's actually true.

00:08:26.800 --> 00:08:27.360
You know what I mean?

00:08:27.439 --> 00:08:30.000
So then if they're not dancing, can you call them a dance?

00:08:30.399 --> 00:08:31.199
Yeah, that's right.

00:08:33.440 --> 00:08:34.159
Yeah, they strive.

00:08:34.720 --> 00:08:39.600
Some girls too just sit there and they'll be talking to customers for like I feel like it's like the lap dances.

00:08:39.759 --> 00:08:42.080
Yeah, and I'm like, you're not even dancing and you're making so much money.

00:08:42.159 --> 00:08:44.000
Like, how are they okay with it?

00:08:44.080 --> 00:08:45.120
But like they're fine.

00:08:45.360 --> 00:08:46.080
Yeah, yeah.

00:08:46.399 --> 00:08:50.159
So when you do meet a guy, do you tell him right off the bat what you do?

00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:56.639
No, I usually just say right off the bat, I'm like, okay, I bar I bar tent or a waitress at a club or a bar.

00:08:56.879 --> 00:08:57.279
That makes sense.

00:08:57.519 --> 00:08:58.399
A waitress at a bar.

00:08:58.559 --> 00:08:59.759
I work at a bar on the weekends.

00:08:59.840 --> 00:09:04.240
Like, I'll say that, and then when I get to know them more, then I'll eventually tell them.

00:09:04.720 --> 00:09:10.879
But I want to like, I don't know, get to know them first in case it doesn't work out or in case they end up being crazy, and I'm like, great, now they know where I work.

00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:19.919
They might show up or be weird or and I feel like it's gonna take a very secure, confident man to be able to date you because a strip club it is all men, right?

00:09:20.240 --> 00:09:23.919
Essentially, mostly men that go there to see pretty women and flirt with pretty women.

00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:27.120
So I can imagine a lot of men would be jealous and insecure.

00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:28.879
I feel like they get jealous, yeah.

00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:31.440
How do you meet guys that you date?

00:09:31.519 --> 00:09:32.320
Are you on the apps?

00:09:32.559 --> 00:09:38.799
I was on the apps, but I end up deleting them because it's just like just red flag after red flag.

00:09:38.960 --> 00:09:44.320
Yeah, so I was on the apps, and like every once in a while I'll go on the apps because I'm like, where else can I meet guys?

00:09:44.480 --> 00:09:54.320
And like I'll meet I'll go places by myself, like karaoke bars or concerts, and like guys will approach me, but it's never the guy that I would usually go for on my own.

00:09:54.559 --> 00:10:02.399
But I like the confidence, so I'll give them a chance sometimes, but then they end up hurting me, and I'm like, great, I lowered my standards for you, and this is how you treat me.

00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:06.799
But I don't know, but yeah, I was on the apps um for a while.

00:10:07.519 --> 00:10:08.320
What is your type?

00:10:08.960 --> 00:10:10.480
So I like all kinds of guys, really.

00:10:10.559 --> 00:10:17.519
There's no specific type, but I do like musicians and I like like handyman type of guys, or just like really confident men.

00:10:18.480 --> 00:10:22.399
I like the confidence ones that like take the lead or will like you know set things up.

00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:27.440
Like if we're at somewhere, like they'll do the talking, like you know, trying to get like a reservation or something.

00:10:27.519 --> 00:10:29.919
I don't have to be the one to be like, oh, table for two.

00:10:30.159 --> 00:10:31.440
Like I don't want him to do that.

00:10:31.519 --> 00:10:36.159
And I feel like as small of a like detail that is, I feel like not a lot of people do that anymore.

00:10:36.240 --> 00:10:37.679
And I feel like I'm gonna have to be the dominating one.

00:10:38.000 --> 00:10:38.480
A leader, yeah.

00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:42.240
Yeah, and then it makes things kind of weird, but yeah, those are my type.

00:10:42.320 --> 00:10:44.720
But I like physically all types of guys.

00:10:44.960 --> 00:10:45.519
Do you sing?

00:10:45.600 --> 00:10:47.279
Is that why you like to go to karaoke bars?

00:10:47.440 --> 00:11:04.639
Yeah, but I'm not like a really amazing singer, but I like um to perform and I like attention, so I'll be like, okay, like I'll make it like a big show and I'll scream and and I like I have a lot of fun doing karaoke, and that's like after I go by myself somewhere, I'll do karaoke and then I'll perform, and then afterwards I'll be like, okay, now people want to be my friend.

00:11:04.799 --> 00:11:06.799
Or they want to get to know me or give me a compliment.

00:11:07.039 --> 00:11:07.679
Oh, that's awesome.

00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:09.519
What is your go-to karaoke song?

00:11:09.679 --> 00:11:12.799
So my favorite one, it's uh Puddle of Mud, She Hates Me.

00:11:13.039 --> 00:11:13.919
That one's my favorite.

00:11:14.399 --> 00:11:16.879
I'll be like, she fing hates me.

00:11:18.559 --> 00:11:19.519
And then I dance.

00:11:19.679 --> 00:11:24.159
Yeah, and then I get on my knees and I uh oh my god, oh my god, that's my favorite.

00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:25.600
Where do you sing karaoke?

00:11:25.679 --> 00:11:26.240
I'm gonna go.

00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:27.679
Yeah, I just showed it.

00:11:27.919 --> 00:11:31.600
Last time I went, there's like three people recording me, and I'm like, oh my god, am I gonna go viral?

00:11:31.759 --> 00:11:32.720
But like it didn't happen.

00:11:32.799 --> 00:11:34.320
I didn't see it, no one tagged me.

00:11:34.559 --> 00:11:37.440
But um, I like Grapevine because they do it every night.

00:11:37.519 --> 00:11:38.240
It's in Scottsville.

00:11:38.879 --> 00:11:40.159
Every night's karaoke place.

00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:44.080
Yeah, on like Monday nights, I like this bar called Easy Tiger.

00:11:44.240 --> 00:11:47.120
It's like it's in Glendale, really cute.

00:11:47.279 --> 00:11:51.279
They do fun, like themed nights too, and or I like rips.

00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:52.799
I was in downtown Phoenix.

00:11:52.960 --> 00:11:56.879
Well, not downtown, but Phoenix and they do Sunday and Mondays.

00:11:57.039 --> 00:11:57.679
Oh fun.

00:11:57.840 --> 00:11:59.519
Yeah, so it depends on what day of the week it is.

00:11:59.600 --> 00:12:00.799
And I'm like, okay, I'll go then.

00:12:01.039 --> 00:12:02.960
You know the karake schedule all across the valley.

00:12:03.120 --> 00:12:03.600
Yeah, basically.

00:12:04.879 --> 00:12:05.440
Yeah, I do.

00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:08.240
There's even this bar called Boycott, a lesbian bar.

00:12:08.320 --> 00:12:09.759
They do it on Sundays too.

00:12:10.000 --> 00:12:10.480
Oh fun.

00:12:10.639 --> 00:12:15.039
So I'll jump around to all of them, just for everyone has like the shortest line, so I can get up there.

00:12:15.440 --> 00:12:16.399
Waste no time.

00:12:17.919 --> 00:12:18.320
I love it.

00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:21.200
So you describe yourself as a tooth collector?

00:12:21.519 --> 00:12:23.039
Oh, yeah, I collect teeth.

00:12:23.279 --> 00:12:24.399
Like what kind of teeth?

00:12:24.559 --> 00:12:25.279
So human teeth.

00:12:25.360 --> 00:12:27.519
I have some animal teeth too that I've been gifted.

00:12:27.679 --> 00:12:28.799
It's all been gifted to me.

00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:32.240
Well, besides it started with my own um wisdom teeth.

00:12:32.480 --> 00:12:34.240
Because if you ask for them, they'll give them to you.

00:12:34.320 --> 00:12:36.639
But a lot of people, I feel like, don't think to ask.

00:12:36.960 --> 00:12:41.519
But I just think teeth are so fascinating, or everyone has different teeth.

00:12:41.759 --> 00:12:43.679
I don't know, I just find that so amazing.

00:12:43.759 --> 00:12:48.240
And like you only have so many, so I feel like they should be worth as much as gold, in my opinion.

00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:53.200
That's so funny because so I lost my last baby tooth recently, like a year and a half ago.

00:12:53.840 --> 00:12:55.600
About yeah, yeah.

00:12:55.759 --> 00:13:07.919
And I so I asked my dentist if I could have it because I asked my niece in front of my mom if the tooth fairy will still come to me, even though I'm an adult, but it's still a baby tooth.

00:13:08.159 --> 00:13:09.440
And my niece said yes.

00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:11.679
And so I was like, Um mom, did you hear that?

00:13:11.759 --> 00:13:15.279
The tooth fairy is still gonna come to me as an adult.

00:13:15.440 --> 00:13:20.960
And my mom was like, The pillow, the the tooth has to be under your pillow for the tooth fairy to come, though.

00:13:21.759 --> 00:13:28.080
And so I asked my dentist, I was like, Listen, I need to take this tooth home because I need the tooth fairy to come.

00:13:30.320 --> 00:13:31.360
And he wouldn't give it to me.

00:13:31.919 --> 00:13:33.679
No, I literally but it's out of your body.

00:13:33.759 --> 00:13:34.399
I feel like you have to.

00:13:34.639 --> 00:13:35.679
No, he wouldn't give it to me.

00:13:35.840 --> 00:13:36.159
Why?

00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:37.360
I took a picture of it.

00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:38.159
I don't know.

00:13:38.480 --> 00:13:40.399
Like, I wonder what their logic behind me is.

00:13:40.879 --> 00:13:45.279
Because it wasn't, I don't know if it was because like he couldn't sterilize it and send it.

00:13:45.360 --> 00:13:46.399
I have I don't know.

00:13:46.559 --> 00:13:49.120
I don't know, but he told me that he couldn't give it to me.

00:13:49.440 --> 00:13:55.679
But he let me take a picture of it, and the tooth fairy did still good just like print off the picture and put it under your pillow.

00:13:55.759 --> 00:13:56.559
Like it was here.

00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:04.720
I used to send a picture to the group chat, and I was like, um, also, by the way, your granddaughter told me that the tooth fairy would be visiting me.

00:14:05.039 --> 00:14:05.440
Yeah.

00:14:05.679 --> 00:14:06.720
Um I'm ready to collect.

00:14:07.600 --> 00:14:09.120
I'm ready to collect collecting.

00:14:09.440 --> 00:14:13.600
I would love to try to buy that baby tooth off you for more than the tooth fairy gave you.

00:14:14.159 --> 00:14:16.879
Um I don't have a baby tooth in my collection, though.

00:14:17.519 --> 00:14:18.320
No my god.

00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:20.159
So I'm like, that's the only thing I'm missing.

00:14:20.399 --> 00:14:32.639
It was like perfectly shaped too, because what what had happened was so what had happened was one of the roots died finally, like after all these years.

00:14:33.120 --> 00:14:40.000
So what he did was he numbed me and literally went in with the pliers and just twisted it and pulled it right out.

00:14:40.080 --> 00:14:47.840
So he it was fully intact, like perfect shape with the one roots that was still there.

00:14:48.000 --> 00:14:48.720
Like, yeah.

00:14:49.200 --> 00:14:50.799
It was it was a really it was a really cute.

00:14:51.120 --> 00:14:51.600
I'll show you a picture.

00:14:52.159 --> 00:14:52.639
I want to see it.

00:14:52.799 --> 00:14:55.840
I wonder if it would have been in there forever if they just never pulled it out.

00:14:56.240 --> 00:15:11.120
Well, so the problem was is that that root that died, um, it started to abscess where the root was, and then it was it was at like a risk of like eating away at my jawbone.

00:15:11.279 --> 00:15:13.200
So it had to come out.

00:15:13.360 --> 00:15:13.679
Yeah.

00:15:13.919 --> 00:15:14.159
Right.

00:15:14.399 --> 00:15:14.720
Yeah.

00:15:16.000 --> 00:15:16.639
That's crazy.

00:15:16.879 --> 00:15:18.399
So you do taxidermy as well?

00:15:18.559 --> 00:15:20.879
Yeah, I do small animal taxidermy for fun.

00:15:21.360 --> 00:15:23.039
So where do you get the animals from?

00:15:23.279 --> 00:15:32.960
So I've I've been in classes and they supply the animals, but they're all like animals that die from natural causes, and they're considered like pest animals.

00:15:33.039 --> 00:15:38.080
Like I've done like rats and hamsters and bunnies, starlings.

00:15:38.159 --> 00:15:40.480
So it's all just those type animals.

00:15:40.559 --> 00:15:41.919
Like they provide them.

00:15:42.000 --> 00:15:47.679
But if I really wanted to just do it on my own, I could just go to Pet Smart and get a frozen rat or mouse that you'd feed a snake.

00:15:48.000 --> 00:15:49.120
They're already pre-frozen.

00:15:49.200 --> 00:15:51.120
That's like the first step to doing taxidermy.

00:15:51.279 --> 00:15:51.919
So you gotta freeze them.

00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:53.279
Tell take us through the process.

00:15:53.360 --> 00:15:54.399
So you have this animal.

00:15:54.720 --> 00:16:11.200
Yeah, so I have this animal, and all the animals I've done so far, it's been the same kind of um like process, but you cut them along the chest, give them a little incision, and then you can kind of use your little your little blade to kind of peel, and you can kind of see where it goes.

00:16:11.440 --> 00:16:15.840
It's almost like with your fingers when you go like this and it looks like lighter, you just kind of know where to go.

00:16:16.399 --> 00:16:22.879
Kind of peel along, and then all the skin and flesh will be like hanging off with all the insides.

00:16:23.120 --> 00:16:25.600
And at that point, that's when you like break the insides from it.

00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:27.600
So it's not as messy as you might think.

00:16:27.840 --> 00:16:33.440
Like when I first got into it, it was to get over my favorite blood, like in movies when people get stabbed.

00:16:33.679 --> 00:16:37.279
But there's really not that much blood, but I ended up really liking it.

00:16:37.360 --> 00:16:49.120
So you do that, you break the body off, and then um you would um crack the skull because you peel it all the way up, even up to the head.

00:16:49.200 --> 00:16:52.480
So the skin is like all the way up here, and then you break this half the skull off.

00:16:52.559 --> 00:16:55.919
You gotta scoop out the brains, scoop out the eyes, yeah.

00:16:56.159 --> 00:17:00.320
You make a little clay ball to put in the head, as like for the new half a skull.

00:17:00.799 --> 00:17:03.039
You gotta clean it a bunch too in the process.

00:17:03.519 --> 00:17:20.880
Um and then you take the body, I'd trace it on like paper so I know how big to make the little fake body of string and stuff, and then you do that, and then you just kind of make the body, and then you put the skin over it, and then you sew it like with a needle and thread.

00:17:21.359 --> 00:17:22.559
So, what do you stuff it with?

00:17:22.640 --> 00:17:23.920
What goes inside?

00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:26.640
So I forgot the name exactly, but it's like a hemp hay.

00:17:27.119 --> 00:17:28.319
Oh, it's like a stuff.

00:17:28.559 --> 00:17:28.640
Yeah.

00:17:28.880 --> 00:17:29.119
Okay.

00:17:29.359 --> 00:17:32.240
It's like, yeah, it's like a hemp straw, hay.

00:17:32.640 --> 00:17:32.799
Okay.

00:17:33.039 --> 00:17:45.680
But you can like crush it into balls and it gets harder, just gotta keep adding to it and make it really strong, and then you can use um string like the thread from the needle and thread and kind of tie it, make it tighter, and you put the skin on and then kind of sew it.

00:17:45.920 --> 00:17:47.039
So mine's a little wonky.

00:17:47.200 --> 00:17:52.160
It's too it's not like quite there yet to sell, but I have a few pieces that I've made.

00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:59.279
Is there wait, is there is there is there a market for taxidermy of like rats and stuff?

00:17:59.519 --> 00:18:03.119
Yes, yeah, especially if you make them like do cute things.

00:18:03.279 --> 00:18:16.160
Like, I saw videos going viral, a lot of people would tag me in them, and it's like they'll be like like stripper rats or like you know, like it'll be on a pole and the tail be wrapped around the pole, or it'll be like making a cute pose and have like little costumes on.

00:18:16.400 --> 00:18:17.359
Oh my god, that's hilarious!

00:18:17.599 --> 00:18:31.599
Or you can do like yeah, what I wanted to do is um make rats and like mice of like my friends and people, like say if a friend's getting married, I can make it like her and a husband as little mice, like next to each other, giving like the same hairstyle.

00:18:31.839 --> 00:18:32.240
Oh my god.

00:18:32.480 --> 00:18:33.680
Little outfits, yeah.

00:18:33.759 --> 00:18:34.799
I think that would be fun.

00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:39.680
So tell me about your YouTube.

00:18:40.079 --> 00:18:41.279
It's so interesting to me.

00:18:41.440 --> 00:18:43.039
So you have these videos, tell us about that.

00:18:43.200 --> 00:18:43.680
Like, what are we?

00:18:44.400 --> 00:18:48.400
Speaking of bands dancing up exactly all my entertaining stuff.

00:18:48.480 --> 00:18:49.680
Oh my god, my YouTube videos.

00:18:49.839 --> 00:19:00.000
Okay, so that was I was um on a trip and I had this like just a dream that I was like, oh my god, like I can make comedy Barbie videos.

00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:04.319
A trip with my face, a trip like a vacation or a trip like psychedelics.

00:19:04.400 --> 00:19:08.240
It would you would think psychedelic, but no, it was just a trip, a regular trip.

00:19:08.319 --> 00:19:14.160
I was like on a long uh vacation with my friends and I was trying to sleep, and I'm like, you know what?

00:19:14.240 --> 00:19:20.720
I should make like funny Barbie videos, but use my face on the Barbie, so it's like my story.

00:19:21.200 --> 00:19:34.079
And uh so when I got back to the to the US, I I went to like um Walgreens and I printed off different expressions of me, like extreme expressions, and I cut them out so they fit the Barbie face.

00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:45.920
And I bought all the Barbie furniture and like some friends for my Barbie, and like made like little comedy skits, and like I'm a one-and-done type person.

00:19:46.000 --> 00:19:52.079
I don't like know how to edit the videos, so a lot of them are like pretty choppy, and you can see like this the clear string.

00:19:52.400 --> 00:19:57.839
Yeah, and you can see my hand in some of them because I was like, how do I make it move without doing like stop motion?

00:19:57.920 --> 00:19:59.920
Because that would take a lot more time and work.

00:20:00.079 --> 00:20:04.160
So I just tied it to like a clear string and it's like bouncing, so it's like going like this.

00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:07.920
But I'm like, here she is, and like I'll put them in a car and move them.

00:20:08.000 --> 00:20:13.359
But it was just like comedy videos that I made, I think, in like 2018 or 2017.

00:20:13.680 --> 00:20:18.799
So I haven't made any in a few years, but I do have a video footage of one video.

00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:24.319
I just seen a voiceover, but I I went to Alaska and I had a boyfriend at the time.

00:20:24.400 --> 00:20:25.759
He took me there for a birthday trip.

00:20:25.839 --> 00:20:33.519
So I'm like, I'm gonna bring my Barbies, like, I'll make a cute video because it'll be all the scenes and like all the nature, it could be like a way cool one.

00:20:33.759 --> 00:20:40.880
And um I was bringing it on like the hike, making like quick skits of the video, and he was like giving me such a hard time.

00:20:40.960 --> 00:20:43.279
He's like, Are we gonna be doing this the whole time?

00:20:43.519 --> 00:20:45.759
And that's when I knew like it was not gonna last with him.

00:20:45.839 --> 00:20:47.839
And I'm like, Yes, this is my birthday trip.

00:20:47.920 --> 00:20:49.759
Like, don't you want to do what I want to do?

00:20:49.839 --> 00:20:51.359
Like, this is what I want to do.

00:20:51.599 --> 00:20:53.680
You can keep going if you want, like, you can leave me.

00:20:53.759 --> 00:20:59.200
Like, we we're just taking this hike, but yeah, at that moment when I knew it wasn't gonna last with him.

00:20:59.359 --> 00:21:00.480
So that was the last support.

00:21:00.720 --> 00:21:03.039
He didn't support your Barbie videos, yeah, exactly.

00:21:03.119 --> 00:21:07.599
I'm like, when I make it big, you're gonna wish he supported me, right?

00:21:07.759 --> 00:21:11.119
Um, but I still need to do that one with um the voiceover.

00:21:11.279 --> 00:21:14.319
So there's a Ken in there too, and it's like so dramatic.

00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:15.440
That's funny.

00:21:15.599 --> 00:21:20.640
But what are some of your other non-negotiables when it comes to dating with guys?

00:21:20.960 --> 00:21:21.519
Deal breakers.

00:21:21.759 --> 00:21:23.039
Or deal breakers, yeah.

00:21:23.920 --> 00:21:24.799
Let's see.

00:21:25.119 --> 00:21:28.240
Um deal breakers.

00:21:28.400 --> 00:21:28.720
I don't know.

00:21:28.799 --> 00:21:35.839
I just feel like if they're rude to servers or other like if I introduce them to any of my friends and they're rude, I don't like that.

00:21:35.920 --> 00:21:37.839
If they're rude to people, I don't like that.

00:21:39.119 --> 00:21:44.160
If um they try to like judge the way I dress, I don't like that.

00:21:44.720 --> 00:21:54.559
Like I like to dress dress very like just like very like like out there and just like wear fun things, or sometimes I'll wear like crop tops and short shorts, whatever.

00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:57.599
But if they judge me on that, then it's not gonna work out.

00:21:57.839 --> 00:21:59.359
Because then I'm like, okay, you're insecure.

00:22:00.079 --> 00:22:03.359
Not gonna dull my shine for you because you can't handle it.

00:22:03.680 --> 00:22:10.720
Um, I guess they have to have a car and a house, I don't have the very bottom, but you'd be surprised, actually.

00:22:10.880 --> 00:22:14.880
Like, yeah, especially dating on the apps if you're on the apps, I've heard.

00:22:14.960 --> 00:22:15.519
Yeah, yeah.

00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:19.200
I have one story about a guy who's living in a hotel, and I'm like, wait, yeah.

00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:20.000
What?

00:22:20.240 --> 00:22:22.559
Yeah, oh my god, yeah, I have a story about that.

00:22:22.640 --> 00:22:24.000
But yeah, he's living in a hotel.

00:22:24.160 --> 00:22:26.240
He's like, Oh, did I tell you about my living situation?

00:22:26.400 --> 00:22:28.480
I'm like, no, you forgot to mention that.

00:22:28.559 --> 00:22:29.839
I thought you lived in Scottsdale.

00:22:30.079 --> 00:22:33.200
Yeah, it was like the extended in, and I'm like, Oh, okay.

00:22:33.519 --> 00:22:37.279
No wonder you like were just all about me.

00:22:37.359 --> 00:22:43.680
Like the first couple times we hung out and you were at my house when I invited you over for hours and we had this mind-blowing time.

00:22:43.839 --> 00:22:45.200
Oh, it's because you want a place to live.

00:22:45.359 --> 00:22:47.200
It's because he was it's because he was a homosexual.

00:22:47.359 --> 00:22:48.319
Yeah, I was a homosexual.

00:22:48.559 --> 00:22:49.759
He was like, Oh, this girl at the house?

00:22:49.839 --> 00:22:51.119
Oh my god, she has an extra bed.

00:22:51.440 --> 00:22:52.240
Oh, perfect.

00:22:52.400 --> 00:22:54.880
Like, I'm gonna lay it down so maybe I can move in.

00:22:55.039 --> 00:22:56.799
And like, I was like, Oh, I see now.

00:22:56.880 --> 00:22:57.839
I know what you're up to.

00:22:58.000 --> 00:22:58.240
Yeah.

00:22:58.640 --> 00:22:58.960
Dang.

00:22:59.440 --> 00:23:00.160
That was crazy.

00:23:00.400 --> 00:23:03.039
Do you have any other disastrous date stories or crazy dates?

00:23:03.359 --> 00:23:03.839
So many.

00:23:04.079 --> 00:23:04.799
Tell us some.

00:23:04.960 --> 00:23:08.480
Okay, so I'll tell you about this guy that I was just telling you about the one who lived in a hotel.

00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:12.960
So I match with him his his picture on the dating app.

00:23:13.519 --> 00:23:15.039
It's him like with his like Dr.

00:23:15.200 --> 00:23:16.880
Scrubs on, like a little doctor hat.

00:23:17.039 --> 00:23:18.079
I'm like, ooh, okay.

00:23:18.240 --> 00:23:23.519
And he's like 39, I'm 35, he's handsome, he's tall, he's from like Texas.

00:23:23.599 --> 00:23:27.359
So I'm like, oh, maybe he's got those like sud like Texas values.

00:23:27.839 --> 00:23:29.680
I don't know, seems like a manly man.

00:23:29.920 --> 00:23:34.880
It was around um Halloween, so I'm like, oh, let's go to a pumpkin patch or something cute like that.

00:23:35.119 --> 00:23:41.359
So we did, and it was really fun, and we kissed, and it was really good, and I'm like, okay, this guy could be it.

00:23:41.519 --> 00:23:46.960
Like, this is we had a really good time, he's a gentleman, got food, did this and that.

00:23:47.359 --> 00:23:51.839
And then afterwards went to karaoke and he was supportive, and he was like screaming for me and cheering me on.

00:23:51.920 --> 00:23:53.039
I was like, okay, this is good.

00:23:53.200 --> 00:23:57.680
He even did karaoke, and you can tell he's not good at it, but he did it for me.

00:23:57.759 --> 00:24:02.160
Like the words were just too fast for him, but he was still like stayed through the whole thing, which I thought was cool.

00:24:02.400 --> 00:24:05.200
And I'm like, okay, and then we went back to my place.

00:24:05.279 --> 00:24:12.480
This was actually the second date, but back to my place, and that's when he hung out until like five in the morning, and we were having like deep talks and everything was good.

00:24:13.039 --> 00:24:14.559
He's like, Oh, when can I see you again?

00:24:14.720 --> 00:24:21.200
So we made plans to hang out a few days later, and that's when he told me, like, oh, by the way, like, did I tell you my living situation?

00:24:21.359 --> 00:24:24.160
Like, after we had dinner, because we were on his side of town this time.

00:24:24.400 --> 00:24:28.640
So I'm like, Okay, I'm gonna go to his place, I'm gonna see what he how he lives, you know, this and that.

00:24:28.799 --> 00:24:34.079
And he's like, Oh, um Did I tell you my living situation?

00:24:34.240 --> 00:24:35.440
And I was like, No, you didn't.

00:24:35.519 --> 00:24:44.079
And my first uh thought was like, Okay, he lives with his ex, or like, we're separated, but we're still live together, or like, you know, still married or whatever.

00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:47.920
Then he's like, No, I live at the hotel like up the street, it's an extended state.

00:24:48.079 --> 00:24:49.759
I was living with my girlfriend.

00:24:50.000 --> 00:24:57.200
Then we broke up and this and that, and like he's give me all these excuses, and I'm like, okay, and he's like, So do you want to like come over?

00:24:57.359 --> 00:24:59.599
And normally I'd be like, that's terrifying, no.

00:24:59.759 --> 00:25:02.319
But I I'll do a lot of things for the plot.

00:25:02.400 --> 00:25:06.720
So I'm like, I need to see how like what this hotel situation is, I need to investigate further.

00:25:06.960 --> 00:25:09.920
So I'm like, yeah, I'm like, yeah, like is it close by?

00:25:10.000 --> 00:25:10.400
Like, let's go.

00:25:10.480 --> 00:25:14.000
And I texted my friend, like, okay, just follow my location just in case.

00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:19.759
And then uh, so we go to his hotel, and then he also has like a medium-sized dog, which I thought was weird.

00:25:19.839 --> 00:25:21.599
That he had that in the hotel.

00:25:21.680 --> 00:25:24.720
So part of me was like, Did you just just break up with your girlfriend?

00:25:24.799 --> 00:25:28.960
And you like had to get out, you got kicked out right away, and I don't know, you took the dog.

00:25:29.440 --> 00:25:37.759
But we're in his hotel, and it was like a very small hotel room with uh it was a little kitchen, like a stove.

00:25:38.240 --> 00:25:39.759
There was like a thing of pasta there.

00:25:39.839 --> 00:25:41.680
I was looking around and the closet was open.

00:25:41.759 --> 00:25:44.799
It was an open closet, and there's only like four shirts there.

00:25:44.880 --> 00:25:47.599
I didn't see any like work clothes, like scrubs or whatever.

00:25:47.680 --> 00:25:48.799
So I'm like, oh interesting.

00:25:48.880 --> 00:25:50.400
Like, I think I would see that.

00:25:50.640 --> 00:25:57.200
I go into the bathroom, I just see like one big tub of just like random bathroom products and things.

00:25:57.519 --> 00:26:06.799
So I'm like, he might have just got like kicked out or is just like traveling through because he said he's like a nurse and he likes he wants to do more of like traveling nurse stuff.

00:26:06.880 --> 00:26:07.759
Like that's what he's doing.

00:26:07.920 --> 00:26:11.599
He's not sure where you know the world's gonna take him type thing.

00:26:11.920 --> 00:26:18.480
So I go to the bathroom and I see all that, and I'm like, okay, like I wonder what's uh the situation here.

00:26:18.559 --> 00:26:20.960
I feel like he just got kicked out because he just has four shirts.

00:26:21.279 --> 00:26:22.160
Or they just got in a fight.

00:26:22.400 --> 00:26:25.039
Yeah, they just like left, he just like left for the weekend.

00:26:25.279 --> 00:26:25.680
Yeah, exactly.

00:26:27.119 --> 00:26:27.599
You know what I mean?

00:26:28.000 --> 00:26:28.559
Yeah, that too.

00:26:28.640 --> 00:26:30.880
Like they got in a fight and he wants to go like see what's out there.

00:26:31.119 --> 00:26:39.440
So then I come back out, we're just like sitting on his bed, and he's like, Well, like, since now you've seen my place, like there's something else I want to tell you.

00:26:39.519 --> 00:26:43.279
And I'm like, okay, like he already felt vulnerable with me that I like accepted that part of him.

00:26:43.440 --> 00:26:45.359
So I'm like, Oh yeah, what do you want to tell me?

00:26:45.440 --> 00:26:47.200
And he's like, because he was 39, right?

00:26:47.279 --> 00:26:48.319
He was about to turn 40.

00:26:48.480 --> 00:26:53.680
And when you're at karaoke, I asked him, like, so how does it feel that you're about to be 40, like this milestone?

00:26:53.839 --> 00:26:55.279
It's like, oh yeah, it's exciting.

00:26:55.359 --> 00:26:58.559
But he's like, Yeah, you asked me that day at karaoke, how does it feel to be 40?

00:26:58.799 --> 00:27:02.880
And I actually want to come clean, that I'm actually not gonna be 40, I'm actually gonna be 45.

00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:14.720
But I lied about my but I lied about my age because the girls I want to match with on the app have their age ranges set to specific numbers, and the girls I want to match with wouldn't match with me if I was put that I was 45.

00:27:14.799 --> 00:27:15.839
And I'm like, oh, okay.

00:27:16.000 --> 00:27:23.119
So he's just like, not just telling me he lied, but he lied to like trick other women young enough that they won't match with someone that's 45.

00:27:23.200 --> 00:27:24.160
So I'm like, okay.

00:27:24.319 --> 00:27:26.960
So I'm like, oh, what's your age range set to?

00:27:27.200 --> 00:27:32.720
I just started asking more questions, and he's like, it's set to from 25 to 36.

00:27:32.880 --> 00:27:34.799
And I'm just like thinking, okay, that's a lie.

00:27:34.960 --> 00:27:40.640
And I'm like, and also like, oh goody, so lucky that I got six months before I meet your deadline, like joy.

00:27:41.279 --> 00:27:43.359
Yeah, and I was like, oh, okay.

00:27:43.599 --> 00:27:46.480
And he's like, Well, what was your dating range set to?

00:27:46.640 --> 00:27:47.440
And I didn't lie.

00:27:47.519 --> 00:27:49.599
I was like, honestly, 35 to 100.

00:27:49.759 --> 00:27:57.599
Like, I'm not gonna match her with a hundred-year-old, but like, I don't know, I just it's just funny to see, but anyway, I said and he was like, Oh my god.

00:27:57.680 --> 00:28:01.359
And then I was like, So, what's the youngest girl that you've ever dated?

00:28:01.519 --> 00:28:07.359
I started asking him more questions, and he's like, Well, she's really mature, and I'm I didn't meet her on an app.

00:28:07.440 --> 00:28:14.720
I met her at country dancing, and she's she's 20, but she doesn't party, and she's gonna go to school, and I'm like, Yeah, she can't party because she can't get in.

00:28:14.960 --> 00:28:16.160
Like, that's why.

00:28:16.400 --> 00:28:20.400
But I was just like, Okay, and he's like, but she's very mature for her age, and this and that.

00:28:20.480 --> 00:28:27.680
And I'm just like, okay, so you want to match with 20-year-olds or maybe freshly 21-year-olds because you're right in old town at a hotel, like you probably picked that location on purpose.

00:28:27.920 --> 00:28:33.920
I get it, but I'm like, okay, so then he was telling me all that, and then so I started asking him more questions.

00:28:34.079 --> 00:28:36.319
I'm like, so like, have you ever been married?

00:28:36.480 --> 00:28:37.039
Are you married?

00:28:37.200 --> 00:28:40.000
And he's like, No, I had never been married, this and that.

00:28:40.720 --> 00:28:46.240
And um, yeah, so after that, I was like, okay, well, like it's getting late.

00:28:46.319 --> 00:28:47.200
I'm gonna go home.

00:28:47.359 --> 00:28:49.359
Like, I'm glad you like opened up to me.

00:28:49.440 --> 00:28:50.160
Thanks for all that.

00:28:50.319 --> 00:28:51.279
Like, it was great.

00:28:51.519 --> 00:28:54.079
And then I leave, and then he's like walking his dog.

00:28:54.240 --> 00:28:58.000
He doesn't bring like another red flag, he doesn't bring like any poop bags when he's walking his dog.

00:28:58.079 --> 00:29:05.519
I'm like, oh, so you're just planning your dog to just leave its droppings out at the hotel, like what the hell?

00:29:05.680 --> 00:29:09.200
Yeah, so I'm like, okay, so I left and I was like, okay, I'm never gonna see that guy again.

00:29:09.440 --> 00:29:13.839
I know that, but like I can't wait to like look him up later and see what else he's lying about.

00:29:14.000 --> 00:29:23.039
So the next day I get to work, and one of my friends has an app where you can like search someone's phone number or their name, and they'll find out their information.

00:29:23.279 --> 00:29:26.000
So I was like, hey, listen, this is a story, this is what he told me.

00:29:26.079 --> 00:29:27.680
He already told me he lied about his age.

00:29:27.839 --> 00:29:30.799
And like now that I'm thinking and like I didn't see any scrubs at his place.

00:29:30.960 --> 00:29:33.359
Another thing I noticed is he always paid cash for everything.

00:29:33.440 --> 00:29:40.960
And I'm like, if you have like a medical job, I feel like you know, at least with me, I make cash, so I spend cash, but I'm like, Oh, do you have cash?

00:29:41.039 --> 00:29:42.559
Like, do you share a bank account with somebody?

00:29:42.799 --> 00:29:46.240
Yeah, like he should have a he should have a bank account of some sort, yeah.

00:29:46.960 --> 00:29:47.200
Exactly.

00:29:47.359 --> 00:29:49.440
That's why I'm like, you don't use a card, like what are you trying to hide?

00:29:49.519 --> 00:29:54.240
You probably share an account with a wife, or you just want to be undercover.

00:29:54.480 --> 00:29:56.240
So we look him up, and I just can't wait.

00:29:56.319 --> 00:29:57.440
So we look him up.

00:29:57.680 --> 00:29:59.200
This guy has a whole different name.

00:29:59.359 --> 00:30:01.519
He said his name was James, his name is Zachary.

00:30:01.920 --> 00:30:05.200
His he is gonna be 45, so he told the truth about that.

00:30:05.359 --> 00:30:08.960
But then it said that he hasn't had a job since 2011.

00:30:09.119 --> 00:30:11.599
So I'm like, what have you been doing for money all these years?

00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:13.200
And he told me he's from Texas.

00:30:13.359 --> 00:30:15.920
There's all these past addresses of Utah, like a bunch.

00:30:16.079 --> 00:30:22.559
So I'm like, okay, he's like jumping around places, like maybe month to month, or like just living with girlfriends, maybe, or whoever.

00:30:22.799 --> 00:30:27.759
So he had all this place in Utah past um addresses, no one in Texas.

00:30:28.319 --> 00:30:30.240
Um, yeah, different name.

00:30:30.559 --> 00:30:37.039
And it it also said that he yeah, he hasn't, he only completed one year of like community college in like 2017.

00:30:37.200 --> 00:30:39.599
So I'm like, he's not a doctor, he's probably wearing a Halloween costume.

00:30:40.000 --> 00:30:44.160
Yeah, but it like it was, I guess honestly, yeah, and it worked, like it caught my attention.

00:30:44.240 --> 00:30:45.839
So I'm like, oh, this guy has a good job.

00:30:45.920 --> 00:30:48.720
Or like, ooh, like maybe he could take care of me.

00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:49.839
And I'm like, oh nope.

00:30:50.000 --> 00:30:51.680
He wants to take he wants me to take care of him.

00:30:52.000 --> 00:30:52.400
Seriously.

00:30:52.880 --> 00:30:57.119
Yeah, and then he was like, I never want to see him again, you know, and I just didn't say anything.

00:30:57.200 --> 00:30:59.599
And he tried kept trying to hang out, and I just didn't answer.

00:30:59.759 --> 00:31:01.039
So I'm ghosting him.

00:31:01.200 --> 00:31:04.319
And then he texted me this huge text about how I'm a piece of shit.

00:31:04.880 --> 00:31:12.319
I'm a low lie piece of shit for ghosting him, and how dare I get deep and intimate with him when I had intentions of never talking to him again?

00:31:12.400 --> 00:31:13.359
I'm like, excuse me.

00:31:13.440 --> 00:31:15.759
Like, you lied about this one major thing.

00:31:15.920 --> 00:31:18.160
I didn't even tell him, I looked him up and saw the other lies.

00:31:18.240 --> 00:31:20.640
But I'm like, it just makes me think, what else are you lying about?

00:31:20.880 --> 00:31:26.960
And you told me you're like like way younger girls, so like, good luck, like do your thing, don't worry about me.

00:31:27.359 --> 00:31:29.920
And then he was like bitching me out, yeah.

00:31:30.079 --> 00:31:30.799
And block.

00:31:31.039 --> 00:31:31.920
Yeah, I blocked him.

00:31:32.240 --> 00:31:34.079
Have you ever walked out mid date?

00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:40.559
Yeah, this was like near the end of the day, actually, but it was oh so empowering, let me tell you.

00:31:40.720 --> 00:31:44.079
So yeah, this story, this was from a different dating app years prior.

00:31:44.559 --> 00:31:53.920
See, I'll like I'll download them for like a couple weeks, and then I'll just like meet all these liars are just like scary, not scary, but like just those what the fuck stories.

00:31:54.000 --> 00:31:57.519
So I'm like, okay, I'm gonna delete this for like my own mental health.

00:31:57.759 --> 00:32:03.680
But this guy I left mid-date, he was from a different dating app, and I was just bored that day.

00:32:03.759 --> 00:32:08.160
I didn't have anything to do, so I was like, okay, like he was in my matches, so I like hit him up.

00:32:08.319 --> 00:32:09.440
I'm like, oh, what are you doing?

00:32:09.519 --> 00:32:10.480
Like, let's hang out.

00:32:11.039 --> 00:32:20.799
Maybe I should have FaceTimed him first, because we met up like near his side of town, which normally I wouldn't do, but it was like a karaoke dive bar, and I'm like, okay, that sounds fun.

00:32:21.039 --> 00:32:32.880
So I met up with him there, and before we even met up, he was like asking me if I wanted to do Molly or do this and do that, and I'm like, um, probably not, but like, you know, whatever.

00:32:33.039 --> 00:32:36.319
So he's a weird thing to ask someone that you haven't met yet.

00:32:36.559 --> 00:32:36.880
Exactly.

00:32:36.960 --> 00:32:38.720
I was like, um, yeah, exactly.

00:32:38.799 --> 00:32:44.960
I was like, oh, like, probably not, but like, you know, I'm down to meet up, meet up with you anyway.

00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:50.400
And then so I go to the dive bar with him, but he ends up showing up like an hour late.

00:32:50.640 --> 00:32:54.240
And normally I just left by then, but I was having so much fun because there was a karaoke dive bar.

00:32:54.319 --> 00:32:59.359
And as soon as I got there, there were just all these like bar flies hanging out, and they were like buying me drinks off the back.

00:32:59.759 --> 00:33:02.480
They saw me sitting there by myself, and they're like, Oh, can I buy you a drink?

00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:05.920
So I was just getting buzzed, and then we were doing karaoke, I was watching them.

00:33:06.160 --> 00:33:08.480
I did some songs, they were watching me.

00:33:08.640 --> 00:33:09.920
It was great.

00:33:10.160 --> 00:33:15.279
And um then he finally shows up like all frantic, like, oh, I'm I'm almost there.

00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:17.119
How to dry my shirt or how to do this and that.

00:33:17.200 --> 00:33:18.640
And I'm like, Okay, so you're bad with timing.

00:33:18.720 --> 00:33:22.160
Like, I already know I'm not gonna see you again because you're an hour late, but I'm having fun with my new friends.

00:33:22.319 --> 00:33:27.279
So he shows up, his hair's like still wet, he looks all frantic, he doesn't look anything like his pictures.

00:33:27.519 --> 00:33:33.359
And this guy's only a few years older than me, but he looked like a whole different guy, different hair, different body type.

00:33:33.519 --> 00:33:38.240
Like, that was probably him once upon a time, but like over the last few years.

00:33:38.400 --> 00:33:42.880
Yeah, he was catfishing me, and I was like, Okay, like whatever, like I'm having fun.

00:33:43.279 --> 00:33:45.839
So he's like, Oh my god, you're so beautiful.

00:33:45.920 --> 00:33:47.680
You're the hottest girl I've seen since my ex.

00:33:47.839 --> 00:33:50.000
I'm like, okay, and he kept bringing up his ex.

00:33:50.160 --> 00:33:53.680
No, yeah, he was like, You probably have so many Instagram followers.

00:33:53.839 --> 00:33:54.880
Are you like insta-famous?

00:33:55.039 --> 00:33:57.599
And I'm like, no, I have like 2,000.

00:33:57.920 --> 00:33:58.880
I'm like, why do you?

00:33:59.039 --> 00:34:00.880
And then he's like, he's like, yeah, look at mine.

00:34:00.960 --> 00:34:05.920
And like he didn't have that many followers, but his first picture, like his recent post, was that picture on his dating app.

00:34:06.000 --> 00:34:07.359
And I'm like, let me see that real quick.

00:34:07.519 --> 00:34:09.119
I opened it, I'm like, when was this taken?

00:34:09.280 --> 00:34:10.159
When did you upload this?

00:34:10.239 --> 00:34:10.400
Right?

00:34:10.480 --> 00:34:11.599
Because you know it's not new.

00:34:12.000 --> 00:34:16.159
And I met up with him, I think it was like 2022.

00:34:16.719 --> 00:34:18.559
This picture was from 2016.

00:34:18.639 --> 00:34:19.599
I'm like, that's what I thought.

00:34:19.679 --> 00:34:20.800
I'm like, you should update your pictures.

00:34:21.039 --> 00:34:22.719
Like, that is not a decade old.

00:34:22.960 --> 00:34:24.880
Yeah, I was like, you know, that doesn't look like you, right?

00:34:25.039 --> 00:34:27.519
Like you have a whole different hairstyle, everything.

00:34:27.679 --> 00:34:31.760
And then he's like, Oh yeah, like I just really felt good at that time.

00:34:31.920 --> 00:34:37.440
And then he started telling me, like, I don't even know if I could say this, all the times he tried to himself.

00:34:37.599 --> 00:35:06.960
I was like, oh, and then he's like telling me, yeah, and then he's like telling me R he has five cats, and how he his brother is more successful than him, and how the day when he saw his dad for the last time, because his dad had a whole double life, like he was just like trauma dumping me, and I was just like, Oh, and then he's just like, you know, if you want to come over after this, like we can go swimming, like I have my like I have like a lot of old clothes that were my exes, like you could wear her stuff.

00:35:07.039 --> 00:35:08.719
I'm like, no, like where's this ex?

00:35:08.880 --> 00:35:13.840
Yeah, he's like, I have clothes, you could you can borrow one of the bathing suits and you can actually just keep it.

00:35:14.400 --> 00:35:16.639
And I'm like, how long how long were you dating your ex?

00:35:16.800 --> 00:35:20.159
Because he would bring up her a bunch, like you can tell I was just like bitter.

00:35:20.320 --> 00:35:22.320
And he's like, We dated for 13 years.

00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:24.159
But you can tell it was like when they were in high school.

00:35:24.559 --> 00:35:27.519
Because he even asked me, like, So do you feel like you peaked in high school?

00:35:27.599 --> 00:35:30.559
And I'm like, No, I feel like I'm constantly getting better and better.

00:35:30.719 --> 00:35:35.119
Like I was shy and awkward in high school, like you're probably still stuck in high school.

00:35:35.440 --> 00:35:37.119
That's when you had a serious girlfriend.

00:35:37.920 --> 00:35:45.119
Yeah, but anyway, near the end of the date, when I was like getting time to pay, he also asked, like, what I do for work and if I do well there.

00:35:45.199 --> 00:35:49.599
And I'm like, Yeah, I mean I do well, like I have, you know, everything I have I own.

00:35:49.840 --> 00:35:53.599
And then near the end of the date, he's like, Oh my god, you're gonna- I'm such a loser and an idiot.

00:35:53.760 --> 00:35:54.719
I forgot my wallet.

00:35:54.960 --> 00:35:56.000
And I'm like, oh no.

00:35:56.800 --> 00:35:58.159
And then I'm like, Oh, you did?

00:35:58.320 --> 00:35:59.119
Like, no way.

00:35:59.199 --> 00:36:01.119
And he's like, Yeah, you probably just think I'm a liar.

00:36:01.199 --> 00:36:02.559
I just, oh my god, I'm so dumb.

00:36:02.719 --> 00:36:03.920
And I'm like, Well, do you have Apple?

00:36:04.000 --> 00:36:05.599
Like, do you have a Tat Pay on your phone?

00:36:05.760 --> 00:36:06.960
Do you have Apple Pay?

00:36:07.039 --> 00:36:07.679
Do you have Vemo?

00:36:08.000 --> 00:36:09.360
No, I don't have any of that on my phone.

00:36:09.599 --> 00:36:10.480
You're gonna think I'm so dumb.

00:36:10.559 --> 00:36:11.519
I'm like, I know you're lying.

00:36:11.599 --> 00:36:12.639
Yes, I know you're lying.

00:36:12.880 --> 00:36:13.199
For sure.

00:36:13.360 --> 00:36:15.920
And then at that point I had like a few shots, and I'm like, I know you're lying.

00:36:16.079 --> 00:36:18.480
And he's like, Oh, you probably think I'm such a liar and so stupid.

00:36:18.559 --> 00:36:20.079
Like, but you you got this right.

00:36:20.480 --> 00:36:22.719
And I'm like, because he knew I was never gonna see him again.

00:36:22.800 --> 00:36:24.960
And I was like, I can't believe you.

00:36:25.039 --> 00:36:27.440
Like, there's no way you don't have tap pay or even Venmo.

00:36:27.519 --> 00:36:29.280
And he's like, it's okay.

00:36:29.360 --> 00:36:32.159
Like, if I think I'm so stupid, you can just leave if you want, you don't have to see me again.

00:36:32.239 --> 00:36:32.960
And I'm like, oh, okay.

00:36:33.119 --> 00:36:36.239
So I just literally left because I didn't, I never had to put a card down.

00:36:36.880 --> 00:36:39.280
The guys were buying me drinks as the moment I got there.

00:36:39.440 --> 00:36:53.519
So I'm like, this guy probably has this whole like plan in his head where he shows up late, assuming the girl would already put a card down because she's waiting, she wants to have a drink, and then like he can just drink on her tab, and then it's like I have to pick because my card's on file, but they never asked me.

00:36:53.760 --> 00:36:56.079
So I just left and I got my card and I was like, Oh my god, yes.

00:36:56.159 --> 00:36:58.639
And I walked out like calmly, like if I was maybe gonna come back.

00:36:58.800 --> 00:37:02.320
And then I just left and then drove to the gas station around the corner.

00:37:02.480 --> 00:37:04.559
And luckily, he lived like close to like where my dad lived.

00:37:04.639 --> 00:37:07.119
But I went over there and I parked, and I'm like, okay, we'll see what happens.

00:37:07.280 --> 00:37:09.440
And he starts calling me, calling me, calling me.

00:37:09.519 --> 00:37:12.480
And he's like, Oh my god, I can't believe you really left me.

00:37:12.639 --> 00:37:15.440
Like, come back, like you'll be so funny, come back.

00:37:15.599 --> 00:37:17.920
And I'm like, Why would I come back?

00:37:18.079 --> 00:37:20.159
Like, you literally are expecting me to pay.

00:37:20.239 --> 00:37:21.039
You told me to leave.

00:37:21.119 --> 00:37:22.719
Like, why do you guys do that?

00:37:22.880 --> 00:37:37.840
I recently had somebody that I met on vacation, yeah, and so we exchanged numbers, and I was had sort of expressed like, I'm just sort of going with the flow, like I don't know if it's gonna work to hang out, blah, blah, blah.

00:37:38.000 --> 00:37:42.559
And he was so pushy and just kept sending like text after text after text.

00:37:42.719 --> 00:37:46.880
And then it would take me a while to respond because I was busy.

00:37:47.039 --> 00:37:47.360
Yeah.

00:37:47.599 --> 00:37:52.079
And then at one point, he was like, he was like, I know I'm texting you a lot.

00:37:52.239 --> 00:37:53.760
He's like, you can block me if you want.

00:37:53.920 --> 00:37:56.079
And so I was like, okay, done.

00:37:56.480 --> 00:37:56.880
Block.

00:37:57.039 --> 00:37:57.199
Yeah.

00:37:58.480 --> 00:38:01.280
You're like, I was getting there, but thank you for the for the very thing.

00:38:01.360 --> 00:38:02.079
So it's like, why?

00:38:02.159 --> 00:38:05.039
Like, why say you can leave, you can leave.

00:38:05.199 --> 00:38:07.760
And then when you leave, yeah, then why would you like it?

00:38:08.559 --> 00:38:09.280
Why did you leave?

00:38:09.519 --> 00:38:12.159
Yeah, it's a manipulate, it's a some kind of manipulation tactic.

00:38:12.320 --> 00:38:15.840
Like, they're like, So weird, you wouldn't leave, like, no, I'm definitely leaving, bro.

00:38:15.920 --> 00:38:16.880
Like, why would I come back?

00:38:17.039 --> 00:38:18.320
Like, I have nothing to do with you.

00:38:18.559 --> 00:38:21.280
Yeah, and then I left him, and then he's like, Come back, seriously.

00:38:21.519 --> 00:38:24.159
And then I'm like, and then that so I'm like, yeah, sure.

00:38:24.239 --> 00:38:24.960
And I just never came back.

00:38:25.039 --> 00:38:30.239
And he's like, I knew you left because the guys, the other guys that were buying you drinks were like, dude, she left you.

00:38:30.320 --> 00:38:31.599
Like, you you fucked up.

00:38:31.679 --> 00:38:33.199
Like, she was out of your league, you fucked up.

00:38:33.280 --> 00:38:34.400
You're never gonna get someone like her.

00:38:34.480 --> 00:38:35.280
Like, she left you.

00:38:35.440 --> 00:38:37.119
And then he's like, No way, and then I did.

00:38:37.280 --> 00:38:42.400
And then the next day, he tried to text me, like, I think you're the one for me.

00:38:42.480 --> 00:38:43.440
I deleted my dating app.

00:38:43.760 --> 00:38:45.599
I was like, Oh my god, when can I see you again?

00:38:45.679 --> 00:38:46.960
Like, I you're so special.

00:38:47.039 --> 00:38:49.039
Like, you're the hottest girl since my ex.

00:38:49.119 --> 00:38:51.039
I'm like, okay, like that's not a compliment.

00:38:51.360 --> 00:38:53.599
And I'm like, Where's yeah, where's her body hidden?

00:38:53.840 --> 00:38:56.079
But he was just like, I really want to see you again.

00:38:56.159 --> 00:38:56.800
You're the one for me.

00:38:56.880 --> 00:39:06.639
I deleted the apps, and I'm like, okay, I know you didn't delete the app one because like literally 30 minutes ago, I screenshotted your profile to send it to my friends because I was telling them all the crazy shit that happened.

00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:08.000
They want to see what you looked like.

00:39:08.239 --> 00:39:08.880
So I know you didn't.

00:39:08.960 --> 00:39:10.960
And he's like, Oh my god, you probably think I'm such an idiot.

00:39:11.039 --> 00:39:11.840
I forgot that one.

00:39:11.920 --> 00:39:12.800
Like, I'm so dumb.

00:39:13.039 --> 00:39:13.599
I'm like, okay.

00:39:13.679 --> 00:39:15.440
So you're just lying like left and right.

00:39:15.519 --> 00:39:22.079
And I'm like, he either wants to, he is genuinely in love with me, or he wants to kill me or get seek revenge for leaving him at the bar.

00:39:22.400 --> 00:39:28.960
And I asked him like how he ended up paying that tab, and he's like, with the same currency that didn't work for you, my word.

00:39:29.360 --> 00:39:30.000
Oh god.

00:39:30.239 --> 00:39:32.719
I told the bartenders that you stole my wallet and ran off.

00:39:32.800 --> 00:39:33.519
And I'm like, wow.

00:39:33.599 --> 00:39:34.480
Oh god.

00:39:34.800 --> 00:39:36.000
I call that bar and let them know.

00:39:36.239 --> 00:39:36.480
Good.

00:39:36.559 --> 00:39:37.840
Speaking of which, are you ready for it?

00:39:38.000 --> 00:39:38.639
I'm ready for it.

00:39:38.719 --> 00:39:41.679
The keep more minute brought to you by Tactical Tax Strategies.

00:39:46.400 --> 00:39:48.719
All right, we have a we have a listener.

00:39:48.960 --> 00:39:50.000
Well, a question.

00:39:50.079 --> 00:39:51.119
This is a long one.

00:39:51.519 --> 00:39:53.440
Hang on, it's a scenario.

00:39:53.679 --> 00:39:54.480
Let me find it.

00:39:54.719 --> 00:39:58.159
Okay, it says, hi, I need some advice about a situation.

00:39:58.639 --> 00:40:04.960
So I have been best friends with a girl for 10 years now, and I have had a crush on her for the past five years.

00:40:05.199 --> 00:40:10.239
I have never been on a date with her before and don't want to mess up our friendship over my feelings.

00:40:10.400 --> 00:40:15.039
I want to ask her out, but I don't know if I should or how I would if I did.

00:40:15.280 --> 00:40:24.480
She is kind of considered the weird girl at our school, and my family and other friends have thought that me liking her was weird.

00:40:24.719 --> 00:40:28.400
She isn't crazy or anything, she just isn't everybody's cup of tea.

00:40:28.880 --> 00:40:32.559
I see beyond her exterior and really know her better than anyone else does.

00:40:32.800 --> 00:40:36.480
Another thing is her parents are weird and I don't really like them.

00:40:36.719 --> 00:40:40.880
Me and her have been casually flirting for years, and the feelings are obviously mutual.

00:40:41.039 --> 00:40:43.119
I think we're both scared to risk the friendship.

00:40:43.440 --> 00:40:45.679
I will take any and all advice.

00:40:47.920 --> 00:41:00.559
So that's hard because I feel like if if like when a guy that's just been my guy friend likes me, I feel like deep down you know when I like you more than a friend.

00:41:00.719 --> 00:41:02.559
So I'm sure maybe she knows that.

00:41:03.920 --> 00:41:09.840
Whether she's acting on it or not, I guess it's kind of an answer on if she wants to do it or not to pursue it.

00:41:10.159 --> 00:41:14.719
But I get if she doesn't want to ruin the friendship too, because that's a major thing.

00:41:14.800 --> 00:41:17.519
But I mean, yeah, that's always a risk you gotta take.

00:41:17.760 --> 00:41:21.440
I think I think you just have to say, I think you just have to say it.

00:41:21.599 --> 00:41:29.119
But you also have to be willing to lose the friendship because once you try to be more than friends, I feel like if it doesn't work, you can't go back.

00:41:29.440 --> 00:41:29.920
Yeah, exactly.

00:41:30.400 --> 00:41:31.039
What if it does work?

00:41:31.119 --> 00:41:32.800
And what if you never try and then you'll never know?

00:41:33.039 --> 00:41:33.280
Exactly.

00:41:34.000 --> 00:41:36.480
You're missing out on something potentially wonderful and amazing.

00:41:36.559 --> 00:41:37.199
Yeah, yeah.

00:41:37.440 --> 00:41:41.760
You just can't like do anything evil to make them be like, you're dead to me forever, I never want to see you again.

00:41:42.079 --> 00:41:45.920
The whole parents thing though, so they they didn't like the parents.

00:41:46.159 --> 00:41:50.400
He says her parents are a little weird, and he doesn't really like them.

00:41:50.639 --> 00:41:50.800
Yeah.

00:41:50.960 --> 00:41:54.480
So it must be mean to him or like I wonder controlling or I don't know.

00:41:54.960 --> 00:42:02.000
Yeah, any of those is tough because she has a good relationship with her parents, you know, they're always gonna Yeah, their opinions always gonna matter.

00:42:02.400 --> 00:42:05.440
And that would suck to date someone that they don't like your parents.

00:42:05.679 --> 00:42:07.440
Like that would I couldn't do it personally.

00:42:07.519 --> 00:42:07.599
Yeah.

00:42:07.760 --> 00:42:09.920
Because I'm very close to my family and I love hanging out with them.

00:42:10.000 --> 00:42:14.480
And if my significant other was bitching every time we went to hang out with them, it would get I couldn't do it.

00:42:14.960 --> 00:42:15.440
Yeah, exactly.

00:42:15.519 --> 00:42:16.079
It would make it hard.

00:42:16.480 --> 00:42:19.119
They would how would you have a future with them if the parents hate you?

00:42:19.360 --> 00:42:19.679
Exactly.

00:42:20.559 --> 00:42:26.159
But I think if he feels like she's flirting back, yeah, I think that they just need to why not do it.

00:42:26.559 --> 00:42:27.360
Do it, I think too.

00:42:27.519 --> 00:42:28.480
Why just do it to be like?

00:42:29.360 --> 00:42:33.920
It's better to regret the things you've done rather than regret the things you haven't done, because then you'll never know.

00:42:34.000 --> 00:42:35.119
At least if you do it, you try.

00:42:35.199 --> 00:42:36.880
If it doesn't work out, at least you know you tried.

00:42:37.119 --> 00:42:39.519
Yeah, it's way worse to be like, oh, I should have done it.

00:42:39.679 --> 00:42:40.559
What was I thinking now?

00:42:40.639 --> 00:42:41.840
She's married with kids, you know?

00:42:41.920 --> 00:42:42.559
Yeah, yeah.

00:42:42.719 --> 00:42:43.519
So absolutely.

00:42:43.760 --> 00:42:51.119
So I saw this TikTok video, and I don't know if it's true, but it was like the top three cars that you should never date a woman if she drives one of these three cars.

00:42:51.199 --> 00:42:53.760
It's like a huge red flag if they drive one of these cars.

00:42:54.159 --> 00:42:54.719
Have you seen this?

00:42:55.119 --> 00:42:56.559
So number three was Honda.

00:42:56.719 --> 00:42:58.320
I'm like, what's wrong with a Honda?

00:42:58.800 --> 00:43:00.239
Number two was a Subaru?

00:43:00.719 --> 00:43:01.280
Subaru?

00:43:01.840 --> 00:43:03.679
Well, probably because that's a lesbian car.

00:43:04.000 --> 00:43:04.400
Oh, is it?

00:43:06.239 --> 00:43:06.320
Why?

00:43:06.480 --> 00:43:12.400
Yeah, we gave my mom a hard time because my mom's now driven a Subaru for her last like three cars have been Subarus.

00:43:12.639 --> 00:43:18.559
And when she first got one, we were laughing at her because we're like, mom, you know that's a lesbian car.

00:43:18.639 --> 00:43:20.800
And she's like, not in Northwest Iowa.

00:43:21.119 --> 00:43:24.559
It's not, and my dad's like, they have a great warranty program.

00:43:24.800 --> 00:43:26.480
Yeah, that's hilarious.

00:43:26.639 --> 00:43:28.800
And number one, can you guess what number one was?

00:43:29.039 --> 00:43:29.440
Jeep.

00:43:29.840 --> 00:43:30.400
A Jeep?

00:43:30.639 --> 00:43:31.360
A Jeep.

00:43:32.159 --> 00:43:34.320
Like, why is that a red flag?

00:43:34.559 --> 00:43:37.519
Okay, so here's my issue with Jeeps.

00:43:37.599 --> 00:43:39.840
And like, don't come after me, Jeep people.

00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:40.960
Like, I'm sorry.

00:43:41.199 --> 00:43:47.039
But there are a lot of people who make their Jeep their entire personality.

00:43:47.280 --> 00:43:47.519
They do.

00:43:47.840 --> 00:43:49.920
And why do they spun colors?

00:43:50.239 --> 00:43:50.960
Why do they do that?

00:43:51.039 --> 00:43:52.320
And what's up with the ducks?

00:43:52.480 --> 00:43:53.440
Have you seen the ducks?

00:43:54.719 --> 00:43:56.559
That's what I feel like maybe is the red flags.

00:43:56.719 --> 00:43:59.760
It's like, oh, someone noticed you come out of the car, like maybe a jealous boy.

00:44:00.159 --> 00:44:00.320
Friend.

00:44:00.480 --> 00:44:03.199
If someone noticed you, they they left a gift on your car.

00:44:03.360 --> 00:44:04.159
Are you cheating on me?

00:44:04.320 --> 00:44:06.000
Maybe maybe, maybe that's why.

00:44:06.320 --> 00:44:07.679
But yeah, no, I don't know.

00:44:07.760 --> 00:44:09.280
That's my that's my ick with jeep.

00:44:09.440 --> 00:44:09.760
That's true.

00:44:09.840 --> 00:44:14.159
People that drive Jeeps are obsessed with jeeps, and they do make it their entire personality.

00:44:14.320 --> 00:44:15.519
That's a good thing, a good point.

00:44:15.760 --> 00:44:20.719
That's well, that Jeep can like run over curbs and medians and everything, so I get it.

00:44:20.880 --> 00:44:21.840
Yeah, no, they're great.

00:44:21.920 --> 00:44:22.320
Like they're great.

00:44:23.840 --> 00:44:25.280
I have nothing against a Jeep.

00:44:25.760 --> 00:44:27.440
But like why?

00:44:28.559 --> 00:44:30.400
Jeep people can be weird sometimes.

00:44:30.639 --> 00:44:31.599
Yeah, agreed.

00:44:31.760 --> 00:44:36.000
So now it's time for the celebrity celebrity cup where we marinate in the juices of the celebrities.

00:44:36.079 --> 00:44:39.760
Did you see that Chinese influencer that had millions of followers?

00:44:39.920 --> 00:44:42.880
And she's beautiful, like perfect skin, hair, gorgeous.

00:44:42.960 --> 00:44:47.599
And she did she did a live stream and there was a glitch and the filter came off.

00:44:47.840 --> 00:44:54.079
And she's like a very plain Jane, like not as beautiful as the filter, and she lost like millions of followers.

00:44:54.239 --> 00:44:55.519
Oh my god, because of it.

00:44:55.760 --> 00:44:57.840
Can you imagine how mortified she must be?

00:44:58.639 --> 00:44:59.119
The mask came off.

00:44:59.519 --> 00:45:00.880
It's basically like being an AI.

00:45:01.119 --> 00:45:02.400
Yeah, like seriously.

00:45:02.719 --> 00:45:03.039
Exactly.

00:45:03.519 --> 00:45:08.320
But think of how she must have felt when she saw that her filter and her real face is exposed.

00:45:09.039 --> 00:45:10.639
It's like those ladies that get their wigs pulled off.

00:45:10.880 --> 00:45:13.039
Yeah, like the dancer that got a wig pulled off.

00:45:13.119 --> 00:45:13.679
Yeah, absolutely.

00:45:13.760 --> 00:45:15.119
She's like, this is a real me.

00:45:15.440 --> 00:45:17.119
But what's sad is that people aren't followed.

00:45:17.199 --> 00:45:18.559
That kind of makes her sad.

00:45:19.599 --> 00:45:20.719
They're probably like she's a liar or everything.

00:45:21.119 --> 00:45:22.079
Yeah, I can see that.

00:45:22.239 --> 00:45:26.559
Like if they unfollow her because she's a liar, but I hope people don't unfollow her because oh, she's not pretty, you know.

00:45:26.719 --> 00:45:27.199
Yeah, exactly.

00:45:27.360 --> 00:45:27.519
Yeah.

00:45:27.679 --> 00:45:29.199
No, I think it's probably more.

00:45:29.360 --> 00:45:33.360
I would feel more like, oh, she's not who she's a fake, a fraud.

00:45:33.519 --> 00:45:33.760
Yeah.

00:45:34.079 --> 00:45:34.239
Yeah.

00:45:35.199 --> 00:45:38.559
So now it's time to get to know you with Zoya, sponsored by Zoya, your neighborhood yogurt.

00:45:38.800 --> 00:45:39.920
Rapid fire questions.

00:45:40.079 --> 00:45:41.840
What is your favorite body part on a man?

00:45:42.159 --> 00:45:42.960
Chest hair.

00:45:43.280 --> 00:45:46.079
What baby?

00:45:46.320 --> 00:45:48.239
What should someone not do on a first date?

00:45:48.480 --> 00:45:50.880
Or what where should someone not take you on a first date?

00:45:52.159 --> 00:45:53.440
Uh drive through a restaurant.

00:45:54.000 --> 00:45:55.840
Is watching porn considered cheating?

00:45:56.159 --> 00:45:56.400
No.

00:45:56.880 --> 00:46:00.320
Before you're intimate, is it appropriate to ask your date how many people they've been with?

00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:01.039
No.

00:46:01.360 --> 00:46:03.280
Is it acceptable to have sex on the first date?

00:46:03.599 --> 00:46:03.840
Yes.

00:46:04.079 --> 00:46:06.880
Should you disclose mental health issues early on in a relationship?

00:46:07.519 --> 00:46:07.679
Yes.

00:46:08.000 --> 00:46:10.880
And last but not least, what is your favorite sexual position and why?

00:46:12.880 --> 00:46:15.119
I like uh getting pounded from behind.

00:46:17.840 --> 00:46:18.320
Well, thank you.

00:46:18.639 --> 00:46:19.360
Do you have any other questions?

00:46:19.519 --> 00:46:19.599
No.

00:46:19.920 --> 00:46:22.079

Oh my god, I just totally got catfished.

00:46:43.840 --> 00:46:46.000
He looks absolutely nothing like his picture.

00:46:46.159 --> 00:46:50.960
