(03:14):
what's up at Savannah? We're callingfrom Kiss ninety five to seven. I
have to let you know you're onthe radio this morning. Okay, Okay,
Well then I'll just fill you in. You're on the radio because we
do something called second Date Update.Hopefully you've heard of it. If not,
that's when somebody calls us if theygot ghosted after a first date,
like maybe they're feeling a connection andthey want to go on a second date

(03:35):
but they're not getting a response andthey want to know why they call us,
And so you're on second Date Updatebecause James called us. Okay,
remember your Okay, So then letme tell you what he said. Okay,
so obviously James told us it wasa great first date. You guys
went out to a nice romantic restaurant. You had a great meal. But
he also said the conversation was great. He felt like there was some flirting
going on and there was like alittle bit of a connection. He also

(03:59):
said that like after the date,you might have had a little bit of
conversation, like he reached out toyou and there was a little bit of
conversation. But when it came tothe second date, you know topic,
you've been completely ghosting him for asecond date. So how was this date
for you? What is going on? Yeah, well, I mean I
would say the date was mostly good. Like he suggested we go to this

(04:20):
like really nice restaurant, and it'ssuper easy to talk to, Like the
conversation flowed. But then when likethe check came, he said we should
split it. And the only reasonlike that kind of threw me off was
because as we were eating, hewas like, order whatever you want,

(04:40):
it's like a date. And Iordered a salad and a drink, and
he like ordered the lobster and waspounding three drinks. And so I don't
know, I just don't really wantto be dating like somebody who's cheap,
you know, Like so he askedme out, and I don't know the
fact that he kept saying to youknow, to me. When you go
out on a date and the guysays, I want you to order whatever

(05:03):
you want. This is a date, Please get the lobster, get several
drinks, and you don't he does, and then he wants you to pay
for his meal. It's that rubsme the wrong way to that's like so
rude. Wait because now you're payingfrist date. Right at that point,
I'd rather just pay for my ownmeal, right, yeah, I hit

(05:23):
up market grill. Samantha. Ohgosh, I dangs. Hello. So
first of all, I just wantto completely apologize because what she's saying is
one hundred percent accurate. But Ipromise you I wasn't trying to be cheap.
It's just I don't know, itwas kind of weird, like I

(05:46):
don't want to be like I don'tknow, some people get offended if you
try to pay the bill or likejust nowadays, like you pull out the
chair, Like I don't know,it's just kind of weird and like even
like splitting the bill, like theyou know, the surfer came over and
asked, you know, if itwas one check or two, And you
know, I said two. Ididn't mean like, you're totally right,
you only ordered a couple of things, like I should you shouldn't have had
to pay for half the bill.That's just how they did it. But

(06:08):
by that point everything was so awkward, so I should have spoke up or
whatever. But yeah, no,I swear I wasn't trying to be cheap
or anything like that. I wasjust you know, I don't know.
I'm sorry about that. So Samantha, do you understand what you're saying?
Okay, so you accept as youaccept his apology, and basically, James,

(06:29):
what you're saying is you just feellike, you know, you didn't
know what to do, like doyou pull out the chair and maybe she'll
get offended you open the door?Or do you pay them? I guess
it can get confusing. Yeah,yeah, I mean I like, as
he's explaining it, like I understanda little. Yeah. I mean I
really did enjoy like chatting and stuffwith you, James, and like,
yeah, just like that, theend part of the date was like oh

(06:53):
yeah, okay, all right,listen, we obviously all have different thoughts
on this. This is what Ithink we need to do. Samantha and
James, we want you to goon a second date because I think that
you both said the you know,even Samantha said the beginning of the day,
it was great. There was agood connection, great conversation. I
want you to go on a seconddate, and we will pick up the
tab Go wherever you want, dowhatever you want. But let's not make

(07:15):
it like around like a meal whereyou split the bill. I'm let's do
I don't know, ice skate,go for a hike, do something that
doesn't involve like bringing money into it. Let's see how it goes. What
do you guys think? Well,that sounds great to me. If Samantha's
up for it, I mean yeah, I mean you went to all this
trouble to get me on a seconddate, so let's try it. Yes,

(07:40):
yes, yes, he did,Samantha. All right, then that's
that's what we're gonna do. Youguys are going on a second date.
We'll pick up the tab. Ifyou end up doing something that doesn't cost
money and then you go to likelunch or something, we're going to pick
up the tabs. So don't evenlet it stress you out. Take money
out of the equation. Let's seeif there's a match. Okay, okay,
okay awesome, Thank you so much.
