Speaker 1 (00:12):
I heard podcasts year more, kiss podcasts, playlists and listen live.
Speaker 2 (00:17):
On the free iHeart app romnie Kiv now with Correo.
Speaker 3 (00:28):
It's the podcast good Day.
Speaker 2 (00:35):
So this will affect people that are still in the
dating game.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Well, I was for fifteen months kind of interested because
I reckon I would have spoken to like thirty different
people right, and went on ten separate dates, had two
eight week stints, and then I met Olivia. So I
feel like I gave it a really good credit.
Speaker 2 (00:55):
You gave it a proper notch and to eight weeks stints.
Speaker 1 (00:57):
Yeah, two eight weeks stints, one of which I broke
up the other broke up with me, which is fine,
just you know, after eight weeks you go, no, I'm not.
I'm actually really grateful because he was definitely the wrong human.
Speaker 4 (01:07):
Yeah, yeah, And which was the that you were mostly using?
Speaker 2 (01:12):
I was hinge, hinge.
Speaker 1 (01:14):
I personally don't like bumble where the women have the
first you know, like the right of stuff, because I
think you learn more by sitting back and letting people
show who they truly are.
Speaker 4 (01:27):
So bumble the women get to say yeah, and men
cannot make the first approach.
Speaker 2 (01:32):
The women have to go.
Speaker 1 (01:35):
Well, on Hinge. You can do both.
Speaker 2 (01:38):
I have no idea about this is hilarious.
Speaker 1 (01:40):
Tinder you can do. But I didn't like Tinder. Tinder
was much more of a hook up.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
At It's just got a name for Tinder. That's why
no one likes it. Yeah, no, I do.
Speaker 4 (01:49):
Like my my neighbors Hannah and Charlie. They met on Tinder.
They're married now to kids.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
It happens. Yeah, first date, first Hinder date. Wow for Hannah.
Charlie was given it a nudge apparently, But Hannah and.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
You, it's a hard world to be and it's really tough.
Speaker 2 (02:07):
It's not I'm not.
Speaker 1 (02:09):
Look, I know people who love it. I was not
one of those people. But I knew that if I
wanted to meet someone, I had to put myself out there.
Speaker 4 (02:14):
Well, one of the things I know that your your
previous partners have all been tall, Yes, significantly, well over
six foot yes.
Speaker 2 (02:21):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (02:21):
If that was a prerequisite for me, he was a
really big deal.
Speaker 2 (02:24):
Yes.
Speaker 4 (02:25):
Well, And it would be interesting to know if you
could have chosen to put this stipulation which Tinder have
now added. If you get the Premium, the Global Premium
feature to their app, you can put a height filter
so you can say you must be over five ten
or whatever. And so I wonted because Olivier is not
a tall man.
Speaker 1 (02:45):
No, he's taller than me. I think he's like five
foot eight. Why do I say it in inches and centimeters?
It's so ridiculous. He's and I'm five foot six. So
there's a cup there's like two inches what's that five
centimetres between us sixty eight and he's on It doesn't.
Speaker 2 (02:59):
Matter, that's what you've realized. Yeah, but it did, Yeah.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
It really did. And I would have put that.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
I would have you would have that's so shallow.
Speaker 1 (03:09):
Just because I always thought that the only this is
terrible even saying it out loud. Okay, judge harshly if
you wish. I just felt like I wouldn't be attracted
to someone who wasn't tall.
Speaker 2 (03:21):
What if they're a good guy.
Speaker 1 (03:23):
Well he is and I found him and it's not.
But when I was on the apps, I would have
one hundred percent done that for.
Speaker 4 (03:30):
Pred That's why they've done it, And that's what the
study is saying, is that for men, it's like a
thirteen percent preferre dating women shorter.
Speaker 2 (03:37):
So it's a small amount but forty eight point nine.
Speaker 4 (03:41):
So basically half of women exclusively seek taller partners. So
it's a rule for women, half of women, but not men.
Speaker 1 (03:49):
The only thing I'd say in my defense is I
have a lot of shoes and most of them are stilettos.
So if I dated someone who felt it was inappropriate
for me to wear my high heels and be taller
than them, yes, that's the deal. The better buy some
big boots.
Speaker 4 (04:04):
Yeah, because that was the big deal with Nicole Kidman
and Tom Cruise, wasn't it.
Speaker 2 (04:08):
She wasn't allowed to wear heels for years.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
Is, yes, but it's a sacrifice.
Speaker 4 (04:12):
I would know around thongs she was getting around and
flip flopp flop. Now you're saying that to try and
follow up Maddie Our Producer, because that's what I've heard
is and thirty one six fives our number. What's the
thing if you could put a filter, what's the thing
you would say? No, I cannot that that makes you undateable.
For Maddie Air Producer, it's flip flops or thongs, not
(04:33):
the underpants, the shoes.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
Mine's easy.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
Yeah, don't ask me to get your bags out of
the car. So being I'll do it anyway. Yeah, just
don't tell me to do it.
Speaker 1 (04:44):
What do you mean if you Okay, let's let's create
a scenario. You are on a first date and you
are I don't know, going somewhere, and she's got a
big bag that you that she needs to take with her.
Speaker 5 (04:54):
Yeah, I'll get out and grab it.
Speaker 2 (04:57):
Don't say grab my bags?
Speaker 5 (04:59):
Would you?
Speaker 2 (04:59):
If she says can you? Can you please grab these bags?
That's no good, not like that. But just don't tell
me to grab your back.
Speaker 5 (05:05):
I'll grab them.
Speaker 2 (05:05):
That's off sort of guy, I am. Don't tell me
to do it.
Speaker 1 (05:08):
So you think she's questioning your manhood by asking you.
Speaker 2 (05:12):
I will do it anyway. That's an interesting one.
Speaker 1 (05:14):
Give the person a gay before you try and tell
him how to do it.
Speaker 2 (05:18):
Okay, Well, okay, that's surprising. That's happened. That feels like
that's that's happened. It has happened. Okay, and did you
know that that was it undateable? So what's what's your ick? Thirteen?
One oh six fives our number.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
The more crazy the better.
Speaker 2 (05:34):
Oh yeah, please.
Speaker 1 (05:35):
I know someone who wouldn't date a guy with green
eyes because she thought he'd be jealous? What that's not me?
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Thirteen one oh six five, Nomi was telling me.
Speaker 4 (05:46):
My partner was telling me that I because she was dating,
she was on the apps before we met, that I
would not have met her criteria because I'm because I'm
ten years older.
Speaker 2 (05:55):
That makes sense. I would have aged out before I
told you, just all of it.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
You were going to list it off.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
We should have got hit one of my others.
Speaker 4 (06:12):
What's the shallow reason that that you've decided not to
date someone?
Speaker 2 (06:16):
Join us in the shallows?
Speaker 1 (06:26):
So stand of alderly.
Speaker 3 (06:29):
Look, I was chatting to a girl and we were
organizing to go to an event, and I said to her,
I'll give me your email address, I'll send you the ticket,
and she sent me an iCloud email address, and immediately
I just went, You're.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
So why the iCloud? Why is this just being an
Apple person?
Speaker 3 (06:50):
Or look I am, I'm an Android man, I'm a
Gmail man. I don't know what it was, but I
still cannot explain it. I just if someone did it
to me again, I don't think it would work.
Speaker 1 (07:00):
A good level of shallow A leader of Springfield Lakes.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
What is it? What's the egg?
Speaker 5 (07:06):
Bad teeth I've met so many guys that bad teeth,
missing teeth, And I even go to the extent that
when I'm looking at their profile pictures, if they don't
have any smiley photos, I will ask them straight off
the bat, is there anything you need to tell me
about your teeth?
Speaker 3 (07:24):
Start and I will say.
Speaker 5 (07:27):
I will say, I have no other restrictions. I like
bald man, I like them short, I like any race.
Speaker 3 (07:32):
I like them all.
Speaker 1 (07:33):
But it's just bad.
Speaker 5 (07:34):
You can't do it.
Speaker 2 (07:35):
Teeth is your thing.
Speaker 1 (07:36):
Well, that's a hygiene issue.
Speaker 4 (07:38):
Yeah, sometimes why aren't you smiling with your teeth in
that photo?
Speaker 1 (07:42):
I'm going to add anyone with a fish photo as
their profile what I'll come on, No.
Speaker 2 (07:53):
I call this big saka.
Speaker 1 (07:54):
What So you would prefer to spend hours by yourself
doing nothing and make that your profile?
Speaker 2 (08:01):
The problem I do that. The problem is and correct
me if I'm wrong.
Speaker 4 (08:04):
Core is that a lot of men don't get photos
by themselves.
Speaker 3 (08:07):
Ever.
Speaker 4 (08:08):
So the only time we get a photo our mate
because we're holding up a fish.
Speaker 1 (08:12):
Okay, here's the thing.
Speaker 2 (08:15):
Let me tell you.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
Get that said mate when you're not fishing and get
a nice.
Speaker 2 (08:20):
Fot at the angles today.
Speaker 1 (08:22):
Yeah, we don't do it better than the one with
the scale Camilla out of Jim bombay Camilla.
Speaker 4 (08:28):
Hi, Hi, join us in the shallows. So what is
it that's that you don't like? What's the shallow ick?
Speaker 3 (08:37):
My shallow ick is if you are overly hairy, like
if you've.
Speaker 1 (08:41):
Got a lot of chest hair and a lot of back.
Speaker 2 (08:44):
Hair, keep your hair. How dare you call?
Speaker 3 (08:48):
I'm sorry, but.
Speaker 2 (08:51):
Have you ever ever tried it a jungle? Is it
just visually too much?
Speaker 3 (08:56):
It's I've tried it. I don't like it.
Speaker 1 (09:00):
If you can get your fingernails someone's back head.
Speaker 2 (09:06):
Okay, back hair is a bit much that but front hair?
Come on? What about wolverine? No? Okay?
Speaker 3 (09:14):
Would you play yourself up?
Speaker 5 (09:16):
Please?
Speaker 1 (09:16):
So this is the thing. Would you date someone who
is really hairy but they wax?
Speaker 4 (09:22):
I'm here okay, So as long as you're lying to
yourself in the world, that's okay. Yeah, all right, one
hundred bucks to spend a game? Stop for you, well done,
enjoy that over vouching game over, thank you?
Speaker 1 (09:37):
I got one more for you? One more and said
you never went on a date with the other guy
because he had a velcro wallet. Welcome to the shows.
Speaker 4 (09:47):
My yes, come on in the water's fine, so prowning
