Speaker 1 (00:10):
High Heart Podcasts, he More Kiss Podcast playlist and listen
live on the Free iHeart app. Good Pickup with Britt
Hockley and Laura Burn. Brady, your work, our windows down,
that's my worries in the dust. Only good fabs are
all down. I've done much now, but yeah, I know
(00:33):
I'll big get and what I want. It don't matter where.
This is the pickup. Hi, guys, you're listening to the
Pickup with Britt Hockey and Laura Burn. Welcome back again,
Welcome back to everyday. Yes, sis, Hey did you hear about?
I mean, I feel like it's come to an end
after a very long time. You know the bitcoin guy
in the UK, I know what you're gonna say, all right,
(00:54):
So if anyone hasn't heard this, there is a man
in the UK who for twelve years has been searching
for an SD card that he accidentally threw away. No,
his partner threw it away, did she know what? Maybe
we're reading different stories. So apparently he threw it away
because he mistook it for an old USB like he
didn't realize it was the one he needed to keep
hold of anyway. It had eight thousand bitcoins on it,
(01:15):
right he would have bought this back in the day
when it costs absolutely nothing to buy, but that eight
thousand bitcoins is now worth nine hundred and fifty million dollars.
And he knows that that SD card is sitting somewhere
in a tip in the UK. He knows the tip.
He's been petitioning to the Council to government to try
and allow him to like escavate the tip. He tried
(01:36):
to buy the tip.
Speaker 2 (01:37):
I know it makes sense because imagine, if you bought it,
you could spend however many years going through it.
Speaker 1 (01:41):
You could hire people to do it, but you could
spend so.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
Much money trying to find it and never recoup that.
Speaker 1 (01:46):
Yeah, Or imagine it's just been it's gone into the
back of a garbage truck and it's been compressed and damaged,
and then you find it after all those years and
you can't access the stuff anyway.
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Imagine knowing you had nearly one billion dollars in your
hands and it's so floating around.
Speaker 1 (02:02):
We all have regrets in life, don't we, And I
reckon none of that. Well, everyone's always got like some
little thing, not everyone whatever, Yeah, I got maybe one.
There's something like if you had to really dig for
like something that actually that probably wasn't a good idea
at the time. We can all find something. No one's
regret in life would ever surmount to this nine hundred
and fifty million.
Speaker 2 (02:22):
Yeah, so he's given up.
Speaker 1 (02:23):
Is that the end of it? He's given Well, no,
it's he has to put it to bed. They won't
let him escavate the tip. It's done. He's walking away
fro nine hundred fifty million dollars. I feel he's pain.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Yeah, but before that, you can win some therapy with
us here.
Speaker 1 (02:36):
On our sun we get away for free.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
Though.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Don't worry, it's Thursday.
Speaker 2 (02:40):
We do this every week on our podcast Life Uncut
podcast where we help you with your biggest problems. And
today we have Tylia on the phone, who's having a
bit of a problem with a lover or an ex lover.
Should I say hi, Tyler, Hi, Tyler, Hey, what's their situation?
Speaker 4 (02:56):
So my ex kid's blocking me and unblocking me. The
last time I was in Bali on a girl trip
with my friends for my birthday. I've been blocked for
about nine months this time, probably the longest dead and
he unblocked me sent me a message we spoke for
two days FaceTime said he missed me and worke up
blocked again?
Speaker 1 (03:15):
Who did breaking up in this situation? He did, so
he broke up with you, then he blocked you, and
now he just unblocks you and reblocks you and messages
you sporadically.
Speaker 4 (03:25):
Yeah, just sporadically.
Speaker 1 (03:26):
Oh nice?
Speaker 2 (03:27):
Is your question like, is this has this confused you now?
Speaker 3 (03:30):
Like?
Speaker 1 (03:31):
Does he like me? What do I do?
Speaker 2 (03:32):
Like?
Speaker 1 (03:33):
What's what? How's it made you feel? Yeah?
Speaker 4 (03:35):
When we first broke up, it was a lot of
on and off blocking back and forth, and then it's
just nine months, so it's.
Speaker 1 (03:41):
A long ridiculous you know, from.
Speaker 4 (03:44):
A bit because just now that he came out of nowhere,
we spoke so nicely for two days, had a nice
face time, and then I don't know what I did
to get blocked together.
Speaker 1 (03:53):
Cayl you been doing. Yeah, you did nothing to get blocked,
and you have done nothing to receive like the hot
and cold back and forth. It is so much more
of a reflection of where he's at, and that is
like he's lonely, he wants attention. It sounds like it's
a validation thing as well, maybe power, and he probably
knew you were in Bali. He probably saw that you
were having the time of your life, so then he
(04:14):
felt a little bit jealous, thought he'd reach out, and
then he was like, oh no, no, no, I'm good,
and then blocked again him, Like you need to if
he messages you, ignore him.
Speaker 2 (04:21):
Does he block you on like everything he blocked on Instagram?
Speaker 4 (04:23):
And find everything I'm blocked on Gmail.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
I'm sorry that I'm not laughing at you.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
I'm also not laughing with you. So okay, here's what
you need to do.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
It's purely a control attention thing, Like he has had
the control from day one, since he broke up with you.
He controls if you have contact, what you can see,
when you can see it. I would just block him
so that the next time he goes to contact you,
he literally can't and he will be the control's taken
away from him. He'll have such a shock and like,
(04:55):
you cannot waste another moment thinking about this idiot. And
I hope no matter what happens in the future, you
don't ever get back with him. Me too, Like, I
don't know if that's brutal, but no, it's not brutal.
Speaker 1 (05:05):
I also think like I mean, even if he did
turn around in a month's time and was like, I've
changed my mind and I love you again and I
want to be with you. Do you really want to
be with someone who, after nine months has been he
has been like hot and cold and blocking you and
unblocking you and like treating you in a disposable way,
Like I just I think that. I mean, I wouldn't
be giving it another chance, and I wouldn't be giving
him the opportunity to try and weasele his way back
(05:27):
in again.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
Yeah, definitely only poor thing.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
But you're better than that. I don't even have to
know you to know you better than that.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
He's a weezy. We actually don't know this guy. He
could actually be fine. I have one question, though, why
do you reply? Why? Like? What is it about him
when he unblocks you and messages you like? Why are
your face timing? What's going on?
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (05:48):
He just got one of those ones that has a
bit of a hold over me.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Everyone I've dated since just hasn't quite compared, unfortunately, And
I think because we had quite a messy break up,
hence the Gmail blocking. I kind of just want to
read these good books again. I don't want him to
think I'm the crazy one.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
No, don't. I mean I really hate this.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
I hate that you're still thinking about it and trying
to get back in his You know.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Now, I'm curious as to what you said on gmails
to sell me a hundred messages. What abuse did you
send him in like the absolute depths of crazy.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
I'm assuming that he blocked you on Instagram and your phone,
so then you emailed him correct, which is okay, because
there's nothing worse than like really desperately wanting to get
some closure and you're not being able to get it.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
So like, I'm on your side for that, but you
need to let dead dogs lie.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
You need to move on. He's in your past and
you need to find whatever else is out there for you.
It's not going to come to you while you were
hanging on to this.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Twat. No, nothing is crossed, blocked, uncross your fingers and
go on blocking. Thanks Tahlia. Matt might need to go
into chemist ware house soon after the conversations we've been
having in our.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
House around his rashes. Ill.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
No, he's fine. No, yesterday we were talking about the
male contraceptive pill, which is coming out apparently at the
end of next year early twenty twenty seven. Yeah, which
is like fascinating, and you know, I know it's something
that's been kind of in development for a really long time,
but something that's been around for a very, very, very
long time is va sectomies. And off the back of
(07:26):
that chat that we had yesterday, I went home and
spoke to my husband, Matt. I'm currently pregnant with my
third child, and we're both very much on the same
page that this is going to be our last baby,
and so knowing that this is going to be our
last one, I went home and had the conversation with Matt,
my husband, and I was like, how do you feel
about getting a vasectomy after this? And I genuinely thought
(07:49):
that he would be like, yeah, one hundred percent, like
I've already got it booked in, Like I actually thought
he would have jumped through hoops to go and get
it done. And I was surprised by his resistance to it.
So he said, I don't know how I feel about that.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
They get this weird, like it's a weird feeling about
their manhood being changed, like their masculinity.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
I don't know why, just because it's about their junk.
It's weird. I don't know if that was it? He first,
what else would it be? Well, that's why I said.
I was like, well, do you want to have more kids? Like?
Are we not calling it at three? And he was like,
I don't know, not about the kids. Think He's like,
I just feel weird about getting a vasectomy. And I
was like, okay, well, look, unless you plan on having
more children with your next wife, if it's not going
(08:28):
to be with me, so I reckon, you should go
and get one because I'm not going to go back
on the pill. So then that feels like a real rodeo.
If it's a real role of the nys. Maybe me
see what's going to happen.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
When he says, no, I don't feel good about it,
you didn't dig deeper.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
He made the cardinal sin as a man. Unfortunately, this
is if you ever want to one oh one and
what not to say to a woman. He said he
didn't know if he wanted to have it because he
just didn't quite understand the impact it would have on
his body. But he kind of meant like on his hormones.
And I was like, talk to me about that feeling.
Tell me more and he's like, you know, like, what's
it going to impact long term? And I was like,
(09:07):
do you mean like on the pill for fifteen years
and having my hormones turn into or being pregnant three times,
or giving birth or menopause. I was like, which one
of those? Do you our whole life as a woman.
You could see as soon as I started listing, like
I like rattle listed off all the things that you know,
we have to do to obviously try and minimize the
risk of getting pregnant, and you could just see he
(09:28):
had this moment where he's like, I said the wrong thing.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Maybe now maybe he doesn't have to. Maybe he can
hold out. If you guys can just not do.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
The deed for eighteen months, Yeah, don't act that shocked.
N he can do it one year anyway, for pregnant
every time. We're actually to have a healthy sex life
for a couple that's been together for eight years.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Maybe maybe he can just wait for the for the
male contraceptive pill. And then it's like, because at the
end of the day, it's an awkward one. You can
ask him to do it, you can't force him, but
then then it falls back onto you again.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
No, I can't force him. I mean, I've left him
with the threat, and so it's not a loose threat.
Like we seem to be a pretty fertile couple, and
I'm like, I'm not going on the pill. So that
you want to roll that risk and you want to
run that rodeo, go for golf gold.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
But it's on you then too, you're running the risk.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Well, maybe we're gonna have four kids.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
No, you're absolutely not.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
I'll take him to his appointment. I'll drive him my side.
I think he will change his mind. Do you know
what I need? I need other men who have had
vasectomies to come forward and either tell him that it's
going to be fine or like, has it been good?
Is it liberating? Was it the best decision you've ever made?
I think my dad had a sex Dudes don't talk
about the thing is is women talk about stuff like
we all share. We share everything, you know, we're chatterboxes.
(10:42):
But like, I don't think men share that as much.
And so I know one of Matt's really good friends
has had of viseectomy, but apart from that, I don't
really know many. I just love to hear you guys
slide into the Dan, you know what, I send me a.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Photo, I think more of them than they're having.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Do not send the photos. You do not want them.
I know they're solicited now we still don't want them.
Grace our producer, she really wants to kind of feel
through it all.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
No, gross, Laura, do you remember the supermodel in America,
Christie Brinkley, Like she's seventy now, but she was like
an el McPherson all the time.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
That you asked me so specifically, knowing that I just
googled who she was in the break Yeah, it was.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Just generally more for the listeners, Laura, but thank you
for pointing that out.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
I do know who she is now after looking at
photos of her, and she is. She's seventy one and
she's stunnying. She was like the Elmy person. She is
absolutely beautiful.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
She is single, and she's going back into dipping her
toes into the world of online dating.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
She's having a bit.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Of trouble, but her trouble isn't something that I think
many people experience when they go into the dating world.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Have listened to this.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
I'm not on any kind of dating app like that,
but my daughter's sailor she's so mischievous. She created she
wanted to see what kind of guys and she put
like for like an hour or something. She put me
up there with her name, and she said, Mom, you're
right not to go on it because the same guys
(12:12):
that you know said yes to me saying yes to you.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
I couldn't help it. I couldn't help that interviewer. So
Christy's seventy one and her daughter, Sailor is twenty seven,
and Saylor just thought it would be funny to put
her on and try and match with some people.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
But they were just matching with.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
The same candidates, their online candidate.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
I failed to see what the issue is here. It
seems like Sailor doesn't want the competition. Well, the issue
with the Sailor not for Christian. But like when she says, Mom,
you shouldn't go on there, you're right. It's not the place.
It sounds like sixty but exactly the place for her
live your best life, Christie.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
That also means that there are interestingly like men on
there that have got their age gap. Because you put
your preferences in when you're online dating what you're looking for,
they've got their age gap set obviously as low as
I'm going to assume twenty six. If twenty seven has
fallen in up to seventy two, that's a pretty cut
large casting net.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
I would go so far as to say they don't
have an age net if they're going to open, I
don't think they've put in an age demographic at all.
But you know, there's I mean, there's lots of people
out there who love a cougar and excuse me, I'm
a cougar. No, but like she's ridiculously good looking, like
there is nothing about her. No, but you're not a cougar,
you're thirty eight, thirty seven. Oh, cougar is just some
(13:28):
woman that dates young guy. Doesn't have to be an
age there.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
I know.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
But I mean, like for someone who's early thirties to
date a woman who's thirty eight, that's not a big deal.
But for someone who's early thirties to date a woman
who is seventy, that's a pretty massive gap. Like someone
who could be their mum's literal age. She just looks
so amazing that I feel like she can kind of
cut a few corners and boycott, boycott the normal rules.
I think most of us have to subscribe to.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Different But you and I have matched the same people
online dating, like it happens.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
You're not my mom, That's what I'm saying. That's what
I'm saying. I was like, we've we've been there, We've
we've doubled dinner. Yeah, we've been on dates with the
same people only to find out afterwards. Yeah we intention
I dated a guy for a little bit, discovered some
issues there, and then Britt was like, I'm going on
a date with this person. I was like, oh, if
I don't do that, I still went on the date.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
You were like, I'll save it. See you want to
do some research, you like, see if the issues are
still there.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
What would you do though, if you were, you know,
sharing dating apps, like your mum was in the dating
scene and she was you looked at their Tinder and
I know that this is kind of a different one
because Saylor set it up for her mum, so like
she also set up the age categories as well. But
what would you do if you're both on a dating
app and you discovered that you were matching with the
same men? How would that make you feel? I'm quite
quite altruistic, so I'd be like, get it, Mum. I
(14:40):
feel like, go get it. I'll sacrifice them for you
one hundred percent. I've got years ahead of me. God
knows how long my mum would have if she was
in the seventies. That's really kind, wouldn't you. I tap
that mom? I was like, that's what i'd say.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
But my mom has been married for fifty years. She's
not tapping anything.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah. No, Look, I actually can't imagine my mum on
a dating app, but like, never say never. Hey, weird
things about all right? Well, on that note, let's get
out of here. Seeing a guy

Speaker 1 (05:05):
I also think like I mean, even if he did
turn around in a month's time and was like, I've
changed my mind and I love you again and I
want to be with you. Do you really want to
be with someone who, after nine months has been he
has been like hot and cold and blocking you and
unblocking you and like treating you in a disposable way,
Like I just I think that. I mean, I wouldn't
be giving it another chance, and I wouldn't be giving
him the opportunity to try and weasele his way back
(05:27):
in again.
Speaker 2 (05:28):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:28):
Yeah, definitely only poor thing.
Speaker 2 (05:30):
But you're better than that. I don't even have to
know you to know you better than that.
Speaker 1 (05:33):
He's a weezy. We actually don't know this guy. He
could actually be fine. I have one question, though, why
do you reply? Why? Like? What is it about him
when he unblocks you and messages you like? Why are
your face timing? What's going on?
Speaker 3 (05:48):
Oh?
Speaker 4 (05:48):
He just got one of those ones that has a
bit of a hold over me.
Speaker 1 (05:51):
Yeah.
Speaker 4 (05:51):
Everyone I've dated since just hasn't quite compared, unfortunately, And
I think because we had quite a messy break up,
hence the Gmail blocking. I kind of just want to
read these good books again. I don't want him to
think I'm the crazy one.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
No, don't. I mean I really hate this.
Speaker 2 (06:08):
I hate that you're still thinking about it and trying
to get back in his You know.
Speaker 1 (06:11):
Now, I'm curious as to what you said on gmails
to sell me a hundred messages. What abuse did you
send him in like the absolute depths of crazy.
Speaker 2 (06:21):
I'm assuming that he blocked you on Instagram and your phone,
so then you emailed him correct, which is okay, because
there's nothing worse than like really desperately wanting to get
some closure and you're not being able to get it.
Speaker 1 (06:34):
So like, I'm on your side for that, but you
need to let dead dogs lie.
Speaker 2 (06:37):
You need to move on. He's in your past and
you need to find whatever else is out there for you.
It's not going to come to you while you were
hanging on to this.
Speaker 1 (06:44):
Twat. No, nothing is crossed, blocked, uncross your fingers and
go on blocking. Thanks Tahlia. Matt might need to go
into chemist ware house soon after the conversations we've been
having in our.
Speaker 2 (07:01):
House around his rashes. Ill.
Speaker 1 (07:05):
No, he's fine. No, yesterday we were talking about the
male contraceptive pill, which is coming out apparently at the
end of next year early twenty twenty seven. Yeah, which
is like fascinating, and you know, I know it's something
that's been kind of in development for a really long time,
but something that's been around for a very, very, very
long time is va sectomies. And off the back of
(07:26):
that chat that we had yesterday, I went home and
spoke to my husband, Matt. I'm currently pregnant with my
third child, and we're both very much on the same
page that this is going to be our last baby,
and so knowing that this is going to be our
last one, I went home and had the conversation with Matt,
my husband, and I was like, how do you feel
about getting a vasectomy after this? And I genuinely thought
(07:49):
that he would be like, yeah, one hundred percent, like
I've already got it booked in, Like I actually thought
he would have jumped through hoops to go and get
it done. And I was surprised by his resistance to it.
So he said, I don't know how I feel about that.
Speaker 2 (08:01):
They get this weird, like it's a weird feeling about
their manhood being changed, like their masculinity.
Speaker 1 (08:07):
I don't know why, just because it's about their junk.
It's weird. I don't know if that was it? He first,
what else would it be? Well, that's why I said.
I was like, well, do you want to have more kids? Like?
Are we not calling it at three? And he was like,
I don't know, not about the kids. Think He's like,
I just feel weird about getting a vasectomy. And I
was like, okay, well, look, unless you plan on having
more children with your next wife, if it's not going
(08:28):
to be with me, so I reckon, you should go
and get one because I'm not going to go back
on the pill. So then that feels like a real rodeo.
If it's a real role of the nys. Maybe me
see what's going to happen.
Speaker 2 (08:39):
When he says, no, I don't feel good about it,
you didn't dig deeper.
Speaker 1 (08:44):
He made the cardinal sin as a man. Unfortunately, this
is if you ever want to one oh one and
what not to say to a woman. He said he
didn't know if he wanted to have it because he
just didn't quite understand the impact it would have on
his body. But he kind of meant like on his hormones.
And I was like, talk to me about that feeling.
Tell me more and he's like, you know, like, what's
it going to impact long term? And I was like,
(09:07):
do you mean like on the pill for fifteen years
and having my hormones turn into or being pregnant three times,
or giving birth or menopause. I was like, which one
of those? Do you our whole life as a woman.
You could see as soon as I started listing, like
I like rattle listed off all the things that you know,
we have to do to obviously try and minimize the
risk of getting pregnant, and you could just see he
(09:28):
had this moment where he's like, I said the wrong thing.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Maybe now maybe he doesn't have to. Maybe he can
hold out. If you guys can just not do.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
The deed for eighteen months, Yeah, don't act that shocked.
N he can do it one year anyway, for pregnant
every time. We're actually to have a healthy sex life
for a couple that's been together for eight years.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
Maybe maybe he can just wait for the for the
male contraceptive pill. And then it's like, because at the
end of the day, it's an awkward one. You can
ask him to do it, you can't force him, but
then then it falls back onto you again.
Speaker 1 (09:59):
No, I can't force him. I mean, I've left him
with the threat, and so it's not a loose threat.
Like we seem to be a pretty fertile couple, and
I'm like, I'm not going on the pill. So that
you want to roll that risk and you want to
run that rodeo, go for golf gold.
Speaker 2 (10:13):
But it's on you then too, you're running the risk.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Well, maybe we're gonna have four kids.
Speaker 2 (10:17):
No, you're absolutely not.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
I'll take him to his appointment. I'll drive him my side.
I think he will change his mind. Do you know
what I need? I need other men who have had
vasectomies to come forward and either tell him that it's
going to be fine or like, has it been good?
Is it liberating? Was it the best decision you've ever made?
I think my dad had a sex Dudes don't talk
about the thing is is women talk about stuff like
we all share. We share everything, you know, we're chatterboxes.
(10:42):
But like, I don't think men share that as much.
And so I know one of Matt's really good friends
has had of viseectomy, but apart from that, I don't
really know many. I just love to hear you guys
slide into the Dan, you know what, I send me a.
Speaker 2 (10:56):
Photo, I think more of them than they're having.
Speaker 1 (10:58):
Do not send the photos. You do not want them.
I know they're solicited now we still don't want them.
Grace our producer, she really wants to kind of feel
through it all.
Speaker 2 (11:05):
No, gross, Laura, do you remember the supermodel in America,
Christie Brinkley, Like she's seventy now, but she was like
an el McPherson all the time.
Speaker 1 (11:17):
That you asked me so specifically, knowing that I just
googled who she was in the break Yeah, it was.
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Just generally more for the listeners, Laura, but thank you
for pointing that out.
Speaker 1 (11:24):
I do know who she is now after looking at
photos of her, and she is. She's seventy one and
she's stunnying. She was like the Elmy person. She is
absolutely beautiful.
Speaker 2 (11:34):
She is single, and she's going back into dipping her
toes into the world of online dating.
Speaker 1 (11:40):
She's having a bit.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
Of trouble, but her trouble isn't something that I think
many people experience when they go into the dating world.
Speaker 1 (11:47):
Have listened to this.
Speaker 3 (11:49):
I'm not on any kind of dating app like that,
but my daughter's sailor she's so mischievous. She created she
wanted to see what kind of guys and she put
like for like an hour or something. She put me
up there with her name, and she said, Mom, you're
right not to go on it because the same guys
(12:12):
that you know said yes to me saying yes to you.
Speaker 2 (12:19):
I couldn't help it. I couldn't help that interviewer. So
Christy's seventy one and her daughter, Sailor is twenty seven,
and Saylor just thought it would be funny to put
her on and try and match with some people.
Speaker 1 (12:28):
But they were just matching with.
Speaker 2 (12:30):
The same candidates, their online candidate.
Speaker 1 (12:32):
I failed to see what the issue is here. It
seems like Sailor doesn't want the competition. Well, the issue
with the Sailor not for Christian. But like when she says, Mom,
you shouldn't go on there, you're right. It's not the place.
It sounds like sixty but exactly the place for her
live your best life, Christie.
Speaker 2 (12:47):
That also means that there are interestingly like men on
there that have got their age gap. Because you put
your preferences in when you're online dating what you're looking for,
they've got their age gap set obviously as low as
I'm going to assume twenty six. If twenty seven has
fallen in up to seventy two, that's a pretty cut
large casting net.
Speaker 1 (13:05):
I would go so far as to say they don't
have an age net if they're going to open, I
don't think they've put in an age demographic at all.
But you know, there's I mean, there's lots of people
out there who love a cougar and excuse me, I'm
a cougar. No, but like she's ridiculously good looking, like
there is nothing about her. No, but you're not a cougar,
you're thirty eight, thirty seven. Oh, cougar is just some
(13:28):
woman that dates young guy. Doesn't have to be an
age there.
Speaker 2 (13:30):
I know.
Speaker 1 (13:30):
But I mean, like for someone who's early thirties to
date a woman who's thirty eight, that's not a big deal.
But for someone who's early thirties to date a woman
who is seventy, that's a pretty massive gap. Like someone
who could be their mum's literal age. She just looks
so amazing that I feel like she can kind of
cut a few corners and boycott, boycott the normal rules.
I think most of us have to subscribe to.
Speaker 2 (13:50):
Different But you and I have matched the same people
online dating, like it happens.
Speaker 1 (13:55):
You're not my mom, That's what I'm saying. That's what
I'm saying. I was like, we've we've been there, We've
we've doubled dinner. Yeah, we've been on dates with the
same people only to find out afterwards. Yeah we intention
I dated a guy for a little bit, discovered some
issues there, and then Britt was like, I'm going on
a date with this person. I was like, oh, if
I don't do that, I still went on the date.
Speaker 2 (14:14):
You were like, I'll save it. See you want to
do some research, you like, see if the issues are
still there.
Speaker 1 (14:18):
What would you do though, if you were, you know,
sharing dating apps, like your mum was in the dating
scene and she was you looked at their Tinder and
I know that this is kind of a different one
because Saylor set it up for her mum, so like
she also set up the age categories as well. But
what would you do if you're both on a dating
app and you discovered that you were matching with the
same men? How would that make you feel? I'm quite
quite altruistic, so I'd be like, get it, Mum. I
(14:40):
feel like, go get it. I'll sacrifice them for you
one hundred percent. I've got years ahead of me. God
knows how long my mum would have if she was
in the seventies. That's really kind, wouldn't you. I tap
that mom? I was like, that's what i'd say.
Speaker 2 (14:51):
But my mom has been married for fifty years. She's
not tapping anything.
Speaker 1 (14:54):
Yeah. No, Look, I actually can't imagine my mum on
a dating app, but like, never say never. Hey, weird
things about all right? Well, on that note, let's get
out of here. Seeing a guy
