the show and we'll do our best to help you.
Eight three threety five oh one, Bama is the number, Sarah,
Good morning. What's your issue for? Ask Alabama? Who are
you mad at?
Speaker 6 (05:40):
I'm not at dating?
Speaker 2 (05:44):
What's going on?
Speaker 3 (05:45):
What's what's your dating life like right now? Are you
on the app?
Speaker 6 (05:49):
Oh gosh, dating is so frustrating these days. I don't
know what is wrong with men. Sorry to say it,
but it's like commitment has just completely gone out the window.
The second that you even mentioned God's forbid, you mentioned,
you know, I think one day I'd like to get
married and have a family.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
They run for the hills, are they guys that you're
meeting on dating.
Speaker 6 (06:14):
Apps, Yeah they are. How else are you meeting people?
Nobody's meeting people in real life anymore, So you're like
stuck to having to use these apps. And I don't understand,
like what happened to it?
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Yeah, it does seem like all of the guys on
the apps are here for hook cups. So I feel
like the best way to meet somebody is in person.
But I'm like you, like, where do you do it?
You gotta go to like, yeah, join a hobby club
or something, the bowling or hear.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Me out, I go to church, that's one.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
Go to the places that you would expect those hookup
culture people to be.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Right.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Have you met somebody recently that you said you wanted
to get married?
Speaker 7 (06:59):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (06:59):
Yeah, I mean I can tell when I'm on a
first date, Like I can just tell, And gosh, I'm
even afraid to even bring that up on a first
date anymore because I'm so afraid that the guy is
going to freak out.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Okay, now I think we're getting to the root of
the issue. Are you saying you want to get married.
Speaker 6 (07:15):
On the very first date most of the time?
Speaker 3 (07:18):
No?
Speaker 6 (07:19):
I wait, but then even if I get into that,
I'm like date two or three, which I do think
is important to bring up. You need to make sure
that you're aligned.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Are you telling them that you want to have kids too?
Speaker 6 (07:31):
When I'm saying that about what I'm looking for? Yeah,
I am, because I you know, I'm not a spring chicken.
And if we're not aligned on the state on the
things that we want, I'd rather know.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
But our clocks take y'alls don't produce their Blake exactly.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Well, how are you bringing it up? How do you
bring it up?
Speaker 6 (07:53):
What are the things you dream of? That's how I
like to, you know, like instead of just point blank
being like, do you want to get married? You want
to have kids? Now? I sensitively bring it up.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
You know, Let's see if we can get some advice
for you, because look, producer Blake brings up fortnite on
his first date with his girlfriend.
Speaker 4 (08:12):
Today Fair, I was talking about way less interesting stuff
on our.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
First date call the show.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
Are you in the dating world? And how long do
you wait before you start talking about marriage and kids
when you're dating somebody new? That's eight three three five
oh one two two six'. Two you're listening to The
alabama show on. Demand sarah hates dating because she keeps
bringing up marriage and then guys run and.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
She doesn't know what to.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Do call the show eight three three five oh, One
bama is the. Number, chris good. Morning when do you
think you should start talking about marriage when you're dating somebody?
New all?
Speaker 7 (08:47):
RIGHT i think you need to wait at least three.
Dates and here's. Why you need to figure out whether
you like this person or. Not because if you can
bring it up on the first date and they're really into,
you and you realize you're not into, them then you
might have a. Problem you want to wait until you
like this person before you start bringing up all that.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Stuff i'll be very. Honest i've started Watching love Is
blind On, netflix and some of these people it's like
they don't even care about the person that they're. Marrying
they just want to get. Married and to, me that's
kind of missing the point of.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Marriage that's scary in.
Speaker 7 (09:18):
Itself, well and that's the thing that worries you if
that person is bringing it up too, early especially from
a guy's, perspective, right because if, you especially once you
reach a certain, age if you're dating a woman and
it feels like she doesn't care about who you. Are
she just wants to get the. Ring that's a. Problem,
absolutely that's what cares guys.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Away, chris thank you for.
Speaker 7 (09:39):
Calling, hey thanks for Having meil The Alabama Show on To.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Men it's amazing free on The iHeartRadio.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
App eight three three FIVE o, One bama is the
number to call the. Show, ty good. Morning how long
do you think you should wait before you start talking
about marriage and kids when you're dating somebody? New so.
Speaker 8 (09:56):
Listen it's hard to, say, OH i Watch love Is
blind two AND i, agree you, know with the three
days and things like. That BUT i wanted to chime
in on something that is kind of. Controversial but in
my experience and in the black, community we bring so
much of our lives passed into the dating world that
(10:20):
it's hard for us to just live in the moment
and date and really look at the person for who they.
Are we want To we think we gotta know them
one hundred, percent and that's what keeps it so. Long
like you, see somebody may be waiting five years or
three years or whatever in eight nine. YEARS i got
a friend that waited nine years and now she's. Divorced
that is some. Time it's a long freaking. Time and
(10:44):
for us it might not be just, us but there
are certain people who think that they're gonna know this
person inside and out instead.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Of just what it.
Speaker 8 (10:54):
Is it enough is WHAT i know?
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Enough?
Speaker 8 (10:57):
Right and then it's just like every little thing you
do is like a red flag and OB i knew,
it and you are like a professional engaged.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Person, well and ALSO i think there's a lot to
say for, women like we literally are on a time
crunch because after a certain age we can't have kids,
anymore and men can just keep procreating.
Speaker 8 (11:19):
Forever, Yes AND i think that's why when people are,
older they can, say, hey let's do, this because they
already know some of that stuff on that checklist is.
Speaker 5 (11:28):
A wrap and not get.
Speaker 3 (11:29):

the show and we'll do our best to help you.
Eight three threety five oh one, Bama is the number, Sarah,
Good morning. What's your issue for? Ask Alabama? Who are
you mad at?
Speaker 6 (05:40):
I'm not at dating?
Speaker 2 (05:44):
What's going on?
Speaker 3 (05:45):
What's what's your dating life like right now? Are you
on the app?
Speaker 6 (05:49):
Oh gosh, dating is so frustrating these days. I don't
know what is wrong with men. Sorry to say it,
but it's like commitment has just completely gone out the window.
The second that you even mentioned God's forbid, you mentioned,
you know, I think one day I'd like to get
married and have a family.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
They run for the hills, are they guys that you're
meeting on dating.
Speaker 6 (06:14):
Apps, Yeah they are. How else are you meeting people?
Nobody's meeting people in real life anymore, So you're like
stuck to having to use these apps. And I don't understand,
like what happened to it?
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Yeah, it does seem like all of the guys on
the apps are here for hook cups. So I feel
like the best way to meet somebody is in person.
But I'm like you, like, where do you do it?
You gotta go to like, yeah, join a hobby club
or something, the bowling or hear.
Speaker 2 (06:46):
Me out, I go to church, that's one.
Speaker 4 (06:50):
Go to the places that you would expect those hookup
culture people to be.
Speaker 2 (06:53):
Right.
Speaker 3 (06:54):
Have you met somebody recently that you said you wanted
to get married?
Speaker 7 (06:59):
Oh?
Speaker 6 (06:59):
Yeah, I mean I can tell when I'm on a
first date, Like I can just tell, And gosh, I'm
even afraid to even bring that up on a first
date anymore because I'm so afraid that the guy is
going to freak out.
Speaker 3 (07:11):
Okay, now I think we're getting to the root of
the issue. Are you saying you want to get married.
Speaker 6 (07:15):
On the very first date most of the time?
Speaker 3 (07:18):
No?
Speaker 6 (07:19):
I wait, but then even if I get into that,
I'm like date two or three, which I do think
is important to bring up. You need to make sure
that you're aligned.
Speaker 3 (07:28):
Are you telling them that you want to have kids too?
Speaker 6 (07:31):
When I'm saying that about what I'm looking for? Yeah,
I am, because I you know, I'm not a spring chicken.
And if we're not aligned on the state on the
things that we want, I'd rather know.
Speaker 3 (07:44):
But our clocks take y'alls don't produce their Blake exactly.
Speaker 2 (07:48):
Well, how are you bringing it up? How do you
bring it up?
Speaker 6 (07:53):
What are the things you dream of? That's how I
like to, you know, like instead of just point blank
being like, do you want to get married? You want
to have kids? Now? I sensitively bring it up.
Speaker 3 (08:04):
You know, Let's see if we can get some advice
for you, because look, producer Blake brings up fortnite on
his first date with his girlfriend.
Speaker 4 (08:12):
Today Fair, I was talking about way less interesting stuff
on our.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
First date call the show.
Speaker 3 (08:17):
Are you in the dating world? And how long do
you wait before you start talking about marriage and kids
when you're dating somebody new? That's eight three three five
oh one two two six'. Two you're listening to The
alabama show on. Demand sarah hates dating because she keeps
bringing up marriage and then guys run and.
Speaker 2 (08:37):
She doesn't know what to.
Speaker 3 (08:38):
Do call the show eight three three five oh, One
bama is the. Number, chris good. Morning when do you
think you should start talking about marriage when you're dating somebody?
New all?
Speaker 7 (08:47):
RIGHT i think you need to wait at least three.
Dates and here's. Why you need to figure out whether
you like this person or. Not because if you can
bring it up on the first date and they're really into,
you and you realize you're not into, them then you
might have a. Problem you want to wait until you
like this person before you start bringing up all that.
Speaker 3 (09:04):
Stuff i'll be very. Honest i've started Watching love Is
blind On, netflix and some of these people it's like
they don't even care about the person that they're. Marrying
they just want to get. Married and to, me that's
kind of missing the point of.
Speaker 2 (09:17):
Marriage that's scary in.
Speaker 7 (09:18):
Itself, well and that's the thing that worries you if
that person is bringing it up too, early especially from
a guy's, perspective, right because if, you especially once you
reach a certain, age if you're dating a woman and
it feels like she doesn't care about who you. Are
she just wants to get the. Ring that's a. Problem,
absolutely that's what cares guys.
Speaker 3 (09:38):
Away, chris thank you for.
Speaker 7 (09:39):
Calling, hey thanks for Having meil The Alabama Show on To.
Speaker 1 (09:43):
Men it's amazing free on The iHeartRadio.
Speaker 3 (09:45):
App eight three three FIVE o, One bama is the
number to call the. Show, ty good. Morning how long
do you think you should wait before you start talking
about marriage and kids when you're dating somebody? New so.
Speaker 8 (09:56):
Listen it's hard to, say, OH i Watch love Is
blind two AND i, agree you, know with the three
days and things like. That BUT i wanted to chime
in on something that is kind of. Controversial but in
my experience and in the black, community we bring so
much of our lives passed into the dating world that
(10:20):
it's hard for us to just live in the moment
and date and really look at the person for who they.
Are we want To we think we gotta know them
one hundred, percent and that's what keeps it so. Long
like you, see somebody may be waiting five years or
three years or whatever in eight nine. YEARS i got
a friend that waited nine years and now she's. Divorced
that is some. Time it's a long freaking. Time and
(10:44):
for us it might not be just, us but there
are certain people who think that they're gonna know this
person inside and out instead.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Of just what it.
Speaker 8 (10:54):
Is it enough is WHAT i know?
Speaker 3 (10:56):
Enough?
Speaker 8 (10:57):
Right and then it's just like every little thing you
do is like a red flag and OB i knew,
it and you are like a professional engaged.
Speaker 3 (11:05):
Person, well and ALSO i think there's a lot to
say for, women like we literally are on a time
crunch because after a certain age we can't have kids,
anymore and men can just keep procreating.
Speaker 8 (11:19):
Forever, Yes AND i think that's why when people are,
older they can, say, hey let's do, this because they
already know some of that stuff on that checklist is.
Speaker 5 (11:28):
A wrap and not get.
Speaker 3 (11:29):
It, YEAH i love, YOU i love.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
