Know that's the point.
Speaker 2 (00:53):
Yeah, did we just do that deliberately? So fuddy, yes,
stay with me. Here's the question. What's the shallowest reason
you've dated someone?
Speaker 3 (01:04):
The shallowest?
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Yes, yes, so.
Speaker 3 (01:08):
Would the answer there would the answer there be though,
if you've ever dated someone because of their looks. Yeah,
I think so, okay, yeah, well I would. I would
say so when I was and I know this is
a bit of a cop, had to say that it
was when I was younger, fifteen, sixteen. This actually, this
is actually the girl that I lost my virginity with.
Speaker 1 (01:31):
Yeap, you thought you did well.
Speaker 3 (01:34):
I ended up actually the first time though, Yeah, I
wasn't actually doing it was just between the legs, as
in like I was not I was rubbing between her
thighs and I was yeah, so shatic. So I was
so disappointed. I was like, I just don't think sex
is that good. Turns out, I wasn't doing it, spart.
Speaker 1 (01:52):
Think about nervous feed you. That's the best bit.
Speaker 2 (01:54):
That's what I love that story. The chat that she
had with her friends, the best conversation you ever had
in a life.
Speaker 3 (01:58):
Oh, I don't even to think about it. That's awesome.
I don't want to think about it.
Speaker 2 (02:01):
She just hadn't it right?
Speaker 3 (02:03):
The Greeks, Yeah, the ancient Greeks. Yeah, I used to
have sex between the thighs.
Speaker 4 (02:07):
The floss was and the young boys yeah, oh.
Speaker 3 (02:10):
Wow, So yeah, I if I'm hand to heart and
I'm not going to say their name, but hand.
Speaker 2 (02:20):
To heart, the last reason you dated someone.
Speaker 3 (02:22):
I thought she looked like Lara Croft.
Speaker 2 (02:25):
Wow, that is so deliciously specific, and I love.
Speaker 1 (02:29):
That you're getting into specific.
Speaker 2 (02:34):
Yeah, wow, you dated it because she looked like.
Speaker 3 (02:37):
So because I was into the PlayStation game. I was
like a big fan of the Lara Croft PlayStation game.
And then I was like, I've met this the day that.
Speaker 2 (02:44):
You liked her or you realize that you liked her?
Was she or was she not wearing a crop top
and or cargo?
Speaker 3 (02:52):
No, No, she wasn't.
Speaker 2 (02:53):
She wasn't dilatin. Did you have a singular platte?
Speaker 1 (02:59):
It might have been? And or was she dual wielding pistols?
Speaker 3 (03:02):
She had no guns. She had the rope over her shoulder,
no weaponry on her.
Speaker 2 (03:07):
But she would have had a platinum hair. Sure, if
she's looking like Lara Craft, she has to.
Speaker 3 (03:11):
It was just but it wasn't necessary. It wasn't the
way she wore her hair or what she actually wore.
It was just like she looked like Lara Croft.
Speaker 1 (03:16):
Was Lara Croft? That's xy she was for me?
Speaker 2 (03:19):
A silly question for me, easily question again.
Speaker 3 (03:21):
I'm playing as a as a as a boy, I
would play for hours Lara Croft this PlayStation game and
was just like this. But I'm I'm currently like, I'm
I'm physically like I'm controlling with a remote here the
Perfect Woman. I mean that, you can't see why the
game was successful. You can see why the game was
(03:43):
but I'm shooting.
Speaker 2 (03:44):
I'm controlling with the remote, the Perfect Woman, shooting people
like the plot of West World.
Speaker 3 (03:49):
Well can't like you know, it's creeping on that anyway. Yes,
And and the reason I say this is because I
have an instinct memory.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
Angelia Jolly does play her in the movie.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
Yes, so I wasn't dading Angelina Jolie by the way,
just so you know, just to put that down, but
one of her parents was from England.
Speaker 1 (04:10):
And Lara Croft is from England.
Speaker 3 (04:11):
Right, she's got an English accent?
Speaker 1 (04:13):
Yes?
Speaker 2 (04:13):
Did you have an English accent in the video game?
Speaker 1 (04:15):
Yes? Wow, yes she did.
Speaker 3 (04:17):
And I have distinct memories of saying to the girl
that I was seeing you should you should talk with
an English accent.
Speaker 1 (04:26):
Because role play when you were fifteen. No, we went.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
She didn't know she was being Lara Croft.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
I was just like for you you'd be like, can
you chut the accent on for me?
Speaker 3 (04:37):
Well, I'd say, because so one of her parents would
speak with it, so she could do a very very
good English accent because she was like, she was born
in England, right, so she had she she had it.
And sometimes and then I have to talk to this
woman and some and some of whom know, well, well,
actually why not? Yeah, I'm sure she'd be fine with it.
I'm trying to think the last time I interacted again
this is this would have been my first ever first girlfriend,
(04:58):
first girlfriend where it's you. You actually are a girlfriend like
I had primary school girlfriends.
Speaker 2 (05:04):
As in someone who's hand your held during lunchtime.
Speaker 1 (05:06):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I don't think many people count then, but yeah, carry.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
Yeah, I think I could probably probably, I could.
Speaker 2 (05:14):
Probably buddy you get her details.
Speaker 1 (05:16):
I would love to talk to her.
Speaker 3 (05:18):
I wouldn't. I wouldn want to ambush her, So I'd
reach out and.
Speaker 2 (05:21):
Like, hey, you don't want ambush anyone on this show.
Speaker 3 (05:23):
Now, Okay, I you ambushed Tina Arena. Let's be honest.
Who sorry, low blow, but but yeah, I go, I'll
reach out to her anyway. What's the shallowest reason you are.
Speaker 2 (05:37):
So quite specifically, the shallowest reason you dated her was
because you looked at Lara.
Speaker 3 (05:41):
Croft Guards early on. I can remember as a fifteen
year old boy thinking, wow, she looks like Lara Crofton
that I'm I'm just now infatuated by.
Speaker 2 (05:50):
I'm finally hard to wrap my head around this question,
because the shallow reason that you date someone is like,
I feel like that doesn't the word shallow just imply
that if you're talking about their looks, that's what that's
because it's like it's it's only you're looking at them.
Speaker 1 (06:05):
You're not looking at the depth in them.
Speaker 2 (06:07):
You're just looking at the surface level stuff, which is
the shallows, which is their appearance.
Speaker 3 (06:11):
A shallow reason could be that they're asking for specific
things like God, she had great deltoids, or like, you.
Speaker 1 (06:18):
Know, do you know what I mean?
Speaker 3 (06:19):
But you can also a shallow reason would be for money.
I'd say, so if you shallow because of the car
they drove, the job they had, were a celebrity.
Speaker 4 (06:29):
I once overseas when I was backpacking, I slept with
a dude so that I had somewhere to stay.
Speaker 2 (06:36):
That's pretty shallow, but that's also, I mean that's I'd
almost call that is clever. And I well, the story
I was literally going to bring up, Tom, thank you,
was I was in a Yeah, I was. I was
in a share. We're at a hostel in Budapest, and
we accidentally only booked two beds in the hostel. And
(06:57):
but and it's notoriously hard place to get a bedtill
and I was traveling with three guys and the rule was, well, look,
if you know, if one of us is sleeping on
the floor, unless one of us picks up tonight. And yeah,
I ended up looking up with an Irish merchant banker.
Speaker 3 (07:12):
Didn't you go to a rave that was also in
a you must if you must know sho. Didn't you
go to like a hot spring?
Speaker 2 (07:17):
It was a rave in a in a public heated bar?
Speaker 1 (07:20):
Yeah, in the public yeah, heated bars. Yeah, the bars bar. Yeah. Yeah,
it was pretty well.
Speaker 3 (07:26):
Dance in the water. You're dancing in water, that's.
Speaker 2 (07:28):
The idea raven a bath man, I mean, not.
Speaker 3 (07:31):
Really a rainbow, So I don't I didn't know whether
you like danced around.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
But they're huge barths, by the way, so they're like
they're huge, they're enormous. Yeah, I got talking to her
and then yeah, I mean I can, but sorry the
other question, but that's I mean, I don't even to
go in that story. I did end up with the
Presidential sweet though, which was totally wide, and I ordered
champagne and strawberries, like Richard Garen pretty woman.
Speaker 1 (07:49):
Now it was really hot cool. She was like, do
you want anything?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
And I was like, no, it's fine, just like I
have the presidential swee and my company's paying for.
Speaker 1 (07:55):
Oh my god. I was like, incredible.
Speaker 2 (07:57):
Well, we're obviously getting the champagne and strawberries. And she's
like that because Richard gear gets some pretty woman. And
she was like, why the strawberries, And I was like,
because it brings out the flavor in the champagne, which
the movie hot bit anyway, stayed the night there anyway, anyway,
that's what he says in the movie.
Speaker 1 (08:14):
She's like, why do you get the.
Speaker 2 (08:17):
So But my question is what I find really interesting
about this question is shallow reason to date someone. I mean,
if we're all honest, I feel like hooking up with
someone for a night is largely based on pretty shallow pretenses.
Speaker 3 (08:30):
How can how can you possibly call that deep reason.
Speaker 2 (08:33):
Unless, in fact, if we're just going to go and
sleep with someone, like there's only so much information you
can get, it is shallow by the very nature of
the hookup. It's like, I find you attractive, that's why
I'm talking to you, and you say him, keen on me.
So we're going to get this done because it's satisfying
that urge. I think the question is having we're talking
about having a relationship with someone, right.
Speaker 3 (08:53):
It's going from hookup to I've decided to now date
this person, which which again I think is a totally
in that category, which is if I had just hooked
up with this girl because she looked like Lara Croft.
Speaker 2 (09:03):
Totally totally different, and everyone's done that. Everyone's gone, geez,
she looks like everyone god with that girl rated to him? Well, no,
everyone's everyone right now is thinking about the person that
they hooked up with, who was the semi doppleganger for someone,
and they refer to that person as I hooked up
(09:23):
with that person that looked like Ryan Gosling.
Speaker 1 (09:27):
Everyone a good one, have a good phone radio show? Actually,
who which double gang? Which double gang did you hook
up with? Actually? Friend of ours?
Speaker 2 (09:38):
Not if I can say his name, so I use
a he.
Speaker 3 (09:42):
No no, no, no, no, but yeah, you're doing that.
Speaker 2 (09:48):
No no, no, no, no, no, no no no no.
Speaker 3 (09:51):
He said his name.
Speaker 1 (09:52):
Be his name. We have to be don't go there. No,
we have to be his name. We have to be
his name. I've got to say it. I have to it.
Why not something looked like his? Mum, No you didn't
for a really long time. It was really intense. Anyway,
Should we finish off with.
Speaker 2 (10:14):
Sorry that I haven't Well, I didn't. I don't think
we got to the bottom of this thing.
Speaker 3 (10:19):
I don't think, like example, I did choose to date
that person who I didn't just hook up with them.
Speaker 2 (10:25):
Okay, And my answer is one hundred percent, I've dated
someone for their looks one hundred percent.
Speaker 1 (10:30):
The sad thing about that is that I.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Was probably in a relationship with them for a year
as an adult because of their looks.
Speaker 1 (10:35):
Might say something about how good looking they were as well.
Mmmm my.
Speaker 3 (10:39):
I think my question then off that is that is
that such if you if you do choose to date
someone because of their looks, Yeah, but I think the
depth can grow by the.
Speaker 1 (10:47):
One hundred percent.
Speaker 3 (10:50):
That's such a bad if trying to demonize people who
date someone because of their looks, like.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
Well, that's why you start hooking up with someone.
Speaker 2 (10:57):
You're attracted to someone that's you're not going to like
You're know exactly you're not going to hook up with
someone who you think is absolutely repugnant. And then you go,
you know, halfway down the line, oh, well, you know
I'm hooking up with you. You know you've got you've
got to face like a drop meat by but.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
At the end of the day you might come your
might to kick it in. No one dates like that.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
You hook up with the people that you think look
attractive and then you know the depth comes, then party
on the depth doesn't come. Most people go, hey, this
is unsustainable. So I think this was a trick question.
Speaker 3 (11:28):
I think the answer is every single relationship any of
us have ever entered into originally and you stay with
them for the depth. I think those relationships end when
you realize that I was only attracted to your fish.
Speaker 2 (11:41):
But I would like to qualify that by saying that
I only think that that's the case in contemporary society
because I think that that is the truth because of
the way that we date, which is you see photos
of people. Now, that's how people meet other people now
or even before that, it would be I saw them
at the dance on the dance for I saw them
across the bar. It's very rare that people have, yes,
(12:04):
like writing letters to each other or is there a
way that you the only other people that I reckon
this might be different for is if you worked alongside someone,
which is how a lot of people end up in
relationships were you actually do have a chance to get
to know them, so even if you didn't originally find
them attractive physically, that you do get so attractive to
their personality that you end updating them anyway because you
actually it's not for shallow reasons at all. But I
(12:25):
think that's unique, Like a childhood friend, you know what
I mean, one hundred percent yeah, one hundred percent yeah.
Speaker 3 (12:31):
Or an arranged marriage as well. Arranged marriage is really interesting.
Speaker 2 (12:34):
Is my best one of my best friends, her parents
in an arranged marriage, their Tamil Hindus and they have
the most loving relationship the whole and their daughter my
one of my best friends. She says, her dad always
says lust fades, love grows.
Speaker 3 (12:51):
And that is what we're talking about. That is literally
what we're talking.
Speaker 1 (12:53):
About, isn't that a great expression? Last full fade, love
will grow.
Speaker 3 (12:56):
And on that note, let's listen to a new mystery
animal mating.
Speaker 4 (13:00):
Before that will just come from our sponsors of course.
Now you wanted to do a new thing, what do
you where you hurt a.
Speaker 3 (13:08):
Well, I just think off the back of the success
of listening to a turtle having sex with a shoe.
Speaker 1 (13:12):
Well, how do you do?
Speaker 2 (13:13):
How do you measure success?
Speaker 3 (13:14):
And that is a lot of comments, just positive, just
a lot of just applause emojis on the back of
the last pod. And I'm I'm not.
Speaker 1 (13:23):
On the socials, so you could be lying to me
and I.
Speaker 3 (13:24):
Have no idea. We are going to listen to it
right now. We're going to trying to guess what the
animal is. How have you some sort of.
Speaker 1 (13:35):
