Speaker 1 (00:10):
I heard podcasts he more Kiss podcast playlist and listen
live on the free iHeart app. Now, Matt, a lot
of people in the next generation apparently have lost one
very crucial life skill. What's that the art of flirting?

Speaker 2 (00:28):
Do you think?

Speaker 1 (00:29):
Well, apparently there's a few articles floating around, so I'm
going to say, yes.

Speaker 3 (00:32):
I think people aren't really flirting in public as much anymore.
I think I don't know the exact stats, but I
think a lot of people just are doing it online.

Speaker 1 (00:40):
But this is the problem, right, we went into I
guess from covid as well. A we're an online society now,
like we all live on our phones. It's easier to
be on an online dating app or Instagram. It's easier.
You feel more confident to be flirting through a keyboard
then covid here and we weren't going out anymore. And
I think a lot of people, a lot of a
younger generation as well, they don't feel as comfortable with

(01:03):
their in person social skills.

Speaker 2 (01:05):
Where are all the players? What are they doing with.

Speaker 1 (01:07):
The players at Yeah, they're actually at home playing video games.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Gosh.

Speaker 1 (01:10):
But there are some articles and I put together the
top ways on how to flirt I would love to
know your opinion, because you were a bachelor.

Speaker 3 (01:19):
I used to be quite a good flirter back in
the day ago.

Speaker 1 (01:22):
Well, you had to flirt with thirty women simultaneously. So
before I tell you the actual list, I would love
to know, like, what were your flirting tricks.

Speaker 3 (01:30):
Well, back in the day the Bachelor, I didn't have
to do much, ah.

Speaker 1 (01:34):
Because they came to me like a monster a flavor.

Speaker 2 (01:37):
I was just fielding the requests, you know.

Speaker 3 (01:40):
I think it's a lot harder when you have to
proactively go out and initiate the flirting.

Speaker 1 (01:45):
So you didn't You never initiated anything on the Bachelor?

Speaker 2 (01:49):
No, okay, so.

Speaker 1 (01:50):
What about before you were the Bachelor? The season before
you were on the Bachelorette.

Speaker 3 (01:54):
My flirting, I think was probably at its best when
I was about like i'd say, my early twenties in Sydney, Okay,
as a youngster running around.

Speaker 1 (02:04):
What were you doing?

Speaker 3 (02:05):
Look, there's actually a point here and and it's point
number four on the list.

Speaker 2 (02:10):
It says, address the flirtation.

Speaker 3 (02:12):
I wasn't a big fan of pick up lines, but
what I would do and if there's any men or
women unsure and how to flirt? Please write this down, okay,
straight from topm fin straight from the horse's mouth. What
I would do at a bar? All right, listen to this.
I would go up to someone ordering a drink and

(02:32):
I would stand next to them and I would say
we've got to stop doing this, and they'd say, what
do you mean? I go, this is just this is
a bit much, isn't it. And they'd be a bit
confused the flirting here going on right now.

Speaker 1 (02:46):
Then you would hope that they would just be into it,
because then what if they're like, yeah, you've really read
it wrong.

Speaker 3 (02:52):
When I and then and then I'm like cool, I'll
walk away. Or if they have a chuckle, I go, oh.

Speaker 2 (02:57):
I've got a bite, got a nibble.

Speaker 1 (02:59):
Boys, we've got a live Yeah, okay, that's interesting.

Speaker 3 (03:02):
That's the only pickup line I would ever recommend using. Okay,
well I should be giving away this for free guys.

Speaker 1 (03:08):
Yes, absolutely sure, you're Mary Bay. Number two on this
list is something that I would do. So if I
was at a bar, I think this is the tail,
so it's looking to their eyes now, I don't mean
like you don't go up to them and have a
stair off like, who blinks first?

Speaker 3 (03:22):
Would you do when you walk past on and you
kind of do that like they're like hey, and you're
like smile and you no, you do this.

Speaker 1 (03:28):
I don't know if you can see with my botox,
but little eyebrow raise, Oh.

Speaker 2 (03:31):
My god, it's aggressive. That's a lot. That's because of
the botox.

Speaker 1 (03:34):
What I used to do is and I think if
someone was doing it to me, it's a really sure
fire away for them to know you're interested. You're across
the bar. You just need to give them a couple
of extra looks, like you look.

Speaker 2 (03:45):
Over your shoulder.

Speaker 1 (03:45):
You make it, obviously it's not a gland. You look
over your shoulder, a little smirk, look away, a couple
of minutes later, look back, boom. If you've looked two
to three times.

Speaker 2 (03:52):
You're okay.

Speaker 3 (03:52):
So I'm at the bar. I just want you to
turn around.

Speaker 2 (03:57):
Feel awkward flirting with one vocalim soda please? And wow?
That was pretty good, wasn't it was?

Speaker 1 (04:04):
I felt that?

Speaker 3 (04:05):
Yeah?

Speaker 2 (04:06):
That was good?

Speaker 1 (04:06):
Good?

Speaker 2 (04:07):
That was We need to like, we'll put this on.
Socials would have done a better one.

Speaker 3 (04:14):
If you're not sure on how to flirt, the line
of are you flirting with me and then the look
away smile.

Speaker 1 (04:21):
Well, the other ones are be sassy, used touch to
your advantage. I just want to say, with the touch,
definitely consenting. But they say touch is flirting, nothing out
of the blue or intents, just a hand on their arm,
laughing about something funny.

Speaker 3 (04:33):
I'm not sure about number five though, it says flirt
with yourself first.

Speaker 2 (04:37):
It's a good way to practice.

Speaker 3 (04:38):
Look in the mirror and say something flirty to yourself,
or give yourself a wink.

Speaker 1 (04:41):
You be sure would have done that before you went
out that giving yourself a pep tool
