it's Star one on one three, It's Marcus and Corey
time once again for your favorite. It's second date update.
Let's go.

Speaker 2 (00:08):
It's hard to date out there, it is with them
apps and whatnot and the whatnots. So we tried to
figure out why you're not getting a second date.

Speaker 1 (00:15):
Yeah, let's bring on al. Good morning, Al, Oh, good
morning you guys. Are you a good al? He's slightly
unique in that, as I understand from your email, this
is your second go around, your second foray into the
dating pool. Yes.

Speaker 3 (00:29):
Yeah, I've been married before, so okay, so it's weird
getting back into it. I met sythe on bumble. Yes,
we ended up going to lunch. We're over in Petaluma.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (00:41):
I thought we were good. I thought we clicked pretty well.
We both of us have been married, divorced. You know,
we both have kids. They're you know, my oldest is
twenty three now, Okay, he's over at college doing his masters.
And yeah, it seemed like everything was in alignment there.
And I'm kind of surprised that Syvia just ghosted me after.
I mean, she gave me like a quick hug at

(01:02):
the end of the day, which seemed kind of you know, yeah,
you know.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
I say this with empathy, but Al sounds tired. He
sounds like, can I just get one of these dates
to work? Lese?

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Dating sounds exhausted, It really does. Okay, here's what I'm thinking.

Speaker 1 (01:14):
Yeah, she bought a fixer upper, right okay.

Speaker 2 (01:16):
And doesn't realize the extent of repairs that this place needs.
So she's on the second floor and walks over rug,
not knowing that there's a hole in the floor.

Speaker 1 (01:25):
Huh.

Speaker 2 (01:25):
And so the rug starts to sink through the floor
and she's going into the hole and then gets trapped
right there with her arms constricted at her chest so
she can't call him.

Speaker 1 (01:35):
There are a lot of old houses in Pedaluma. Ooh
the money pit.

Speaker 2 (01:39):
Yes. Aha, congratulations as being very patient with us right now.

Speaker 3 (01:45):
I mean I was going for in my head. I
wasn't sure whether or not I should say it or
leave it up to your guys.

Speaker 1 (01:51):

call Cynthia and see what really happened. Can you hang

I got a like checklist for I mean, it was
so mean. It was like kind of cattie like okay,
like one girl his dog didn't like or something. And
then one girl we wanted to get married, so we
broke up with her. And then one girl I think
he found out was a smoker, and I don't I
don't know. It was just so much. It was just

(04:54):
hard passed.

Speaker 1 (04:55):
Buddy, Oh she's out?

Speaker 2 (04:57):
Is it? Because he was being negative about.

It, so so negative. It was just awful. It was
just really it was really not attractive.

Speaker 2 (05:06):
Okay, So al, why are you talking about your other dates?

Speaker 3 (05:10):
Well, I mean, for me, it's kind of establishing the
level playing field so everybody knows what they're getting into.
And also, I feel like, you know, we're adults here,
so you know, I just want to dress all of
the red flags that I've had in the past, so
that out in the open. You know, dirty laundry fired there.

Speaker 4 (05:26):
Yeah, but that was a super red flag. That's all
I'm saying. It's like all these women were not right
for you, and I don't know dude, it was just
I'm not your friend, like, I don't know, I felt
like your.
