0:44

Paul. I'm hoping that I'm lot of this

0:46

is just in my head just know, head,

0:48

I mean, what's the thing they say that

0:50

the you do the same thing on repeat

0:52

and expect different results, you're the crazy

0:56

I think. the crazy. Yeah, so I

0:59

don't know, I don't know, maybe

1:01

I'm crazy, but guess, but late in

1:03

my late thirties now know, it's just

1:05

don't know. It's just When you say this, when

1:07

you say we talking about? All of of

1:09

it like for dating as long

1:11

as as bad as dating is

1:13

in your 20s, it just like, it just worse

1:15

worse guys, so much worse much worse. Well,

1:17

that's not the most optimistic

1:19

assessment, but based on assessment, but based on

1:21

all this, right? I mean, yeah, man, like, yeah,

1:23

man. been, So been been, I've

1:25

been in the game a while.

1:28

gonna Like age to age myself

1:30

back to the stone age. like, I'm

1:32

talking pre-aps people. I've even been married, which even

1:34

been married, which but for a

1:36

little bit, but clearly not long

1:38

enough to keep me away

1:40

from this dating crap. Um, because now

1:42

now I'm right back in it

1:44

with you know, a different pool

1:46

of pool everyone is everyone it

1:48

totally and it totally sucks. So, um, so one day

1:50

one day I just had this,

1:52

like, like, aha moment. I'm over this.

1:54

I'm done. I deleted all the

1:56

apps and I said, you

1:58

know, if I I dialogue. it's meant

2:00

to be you know okay so you

2:02

decide you were through it done with

2:05

dating at all no not dating specifically

2:07

the apps like I decided I'm I'm

2:09

doing it the old-fashioned way I'm only

2:11

gonna like you know throwing it back

2:13

to the early 2000s y'all like I'm

2:15

gonna go out and do think like

2:17

I'm trying to like meet people organically

2:19

and like if I'm out and about

2:21

and I see somebody I will give

2:23

them my number just like in So,

2:25

um, you know, and I do also

2:27

feel like if you see someone in

2:29

person, like, at least you, you kind

2:31

of know what you're getting into, if

2:33

you agree to a date, you know,

2:35

it's not a catfish at least, which

2:37

is nice, you know? Yeah, definitely not

2:39

a catfish. Yeah, I like the approach

2:41

here. Right. And would you say you're

2:43

getting better results now? Like, is that

2:45

how you met Paul? Even without the

2:48

app, I'm still getting ghosted. And like,

2:50

to be honest, like most of them

2:52

don't really bother me. You know what

2:54

I mean? I'm an adult. I don't

2:56

care. But like, with some of these

2:58

guys, especially when you meet them in

3:00

person and it feels like you're hitting

3:02

it off, like it does start to

3:04

stay a little. So then, you know,

3:06

my desperation then goes to like, okay,

3:08

well, well, let's take it back to

3:10

an even older school. matchmakers yes exactly

3:12

so I'm like hey friends who wants

3:14

to set me up with somebody and

3:16

that's where Paul comes in okay it

3:18

was like like a true blind date

3:20

like I mean we talked on the

3:22

phone a few times before we met

3:24

up but I truly didn't have a

3:26

lot to go on like just literally

3:28

one picture that my friend who set

3:31

us up showed me But I don't

3:33

know, you know, we hit it off

3:35

on the phone, we made it in

3:37

person, and it just, it felt like

3:39

we were hitting it off, it felt

3:41

different. It was a whole new approach,

3:43

you know, so I let myself get

3:45

a little excited, which I had trained

3:47

out of myself. you're quite excited and

3:49

then ghost again. So I'm like, you

3:51

know what? It's time to change the

3:53

approach again. I can wallow or I

3:55

can move on or I can switch

3:57

it up again. How so? Like what

3:59

are we trying to change up? Well,

4:01

that's where y'all come in. Okay. I'm.

4:03

It's time for second date update and

4:05

like, you know, I don't know, I

4:07

just feel like if every other time

4:09

I've accepted and moving on, but like,

4:11

not today, I don't feel like it

4:13

anymore. I want to know what's going

4:16

on. So God willing, this will work

4:18

out. And it's just one of those

4:20

weird misunderstandings. I don't know. He's never,

4:22

he is rarely willing. I don't think

4:24

he listens to the segment, but we

4:26

4:28

5:25

record. Regardless of what happens. Yeah,

5:28

5:30

second date update. It'd be peer.

5:32

So she's been ghosted a lot.

5:34

She had all the apps. She's

5:36

married for a time. She's like,

5:38

now, kicking it more old school.

5:40

Set-ups. Yes. Got set up with

5:42

Paul on a blind date, thought

5:44

everything was going really well. Then

5:46

he goes her too and she's

5:48

not taking it lying down. Now

5:50

she's on tilt. She wants answers

5:53

and she turned to us. So

5:55

here we go. The worst thing

5:57

she could possibly do. So buckle

5:59

up. I think we've got Paul

6:01

on the phone. is this Paul?

6:03

Yeah, who's speaking? Hey, Paul, we're

6:05

Frido and Katie from Y100. We

6:07

are calling you today because we

6:09

want to give you this date

6:11

night package that we have on

6:13

our radio show. So you get

6:15

to pick like whatever you want

6:18

to do and go and we'll

6:20

pay for all of it. And

6:22

I'm sorry, all what, like a

6:24

timeshare? That's nothing like that. We'll

6:26

only make you miserable five minutes,

6:28

not five years. So Paul, someone

6:30

actually emailed us about you. We

6:32

called you, you answered, and. Here

6:34

we are, offering you an honest

6:36

to God date out on the

6:38

town, assuming, of course, you'll use

6:40

it with a person who entered

6:42

you. Heather. Sorry, I'm still confused.

6:45

She emailed, she emailed you about

6:47

what? Well, if you just answer

6:49

your phone, I wouldn't have to.

6:51

I mean, I tried calling and

6:53

texting, but... That's that's Heather hoping

6:55

a free night out would get

6:57

you two to go out again.

6:59

Look it's a nice thought sure

7:01

but no I'm just just no

7:03

look I'm not really attracted to

7:05

hers the thing I mean I

7:07

would be I would be Heather

7:10

but the the gray hair thing

7:12

it's just So she has a

7:14

few great, come on, okay? Like

7:16

who cares? So does, like literally

7:18

everyone. She's been married. That's a

7:20

deal breaker for you? Yeah, that's

7:22

not quite, no, no, don't, don't,

7:24

don't get me wrong. Like a

7:26

few, few still not great, but

7:28

like, I don't know what happened.

7:30

It's like she saw a ghost.

7:32

Like Heather, did you see a

7:35

ghost in the last three years?

7:37

A ghost? have all the way

7:39

here. It's all the way great.

7:41

It's all the way great. Oh,

7:43

look at that. Yeah, I die

7:45

it. So what? It's like, it

7:47

was this thing. I just started

7:49

seeing more and more grays and

7:51

I was like, I'm not gonna

7:53

bite this. So sue me. And

7:55

like all the women were dying

7:57

there and they're gray a while

8:00

back. So I took the plunge.

8:02

looks good. It's not sexy in

8:04

any way that's old, like, good

8:06

for you, good for your friends,

8:08

I guess, but you're just doing

8:10

this to yourself, okay? What are

8:12

you so mad? What are you

8:14

talking about? Doing what? Dying it?

8:16

Yeah, I did that to myself.

8:18

I know, I already said it.

8:20

I don't know, nothing about appealing

8:22

to young dudes. You look like

8:24

a grandma, like nothing against her.

8:27

Mine's a saint. I love her,

8:29

but yeah, it just doesn't, it's

8:31

not doing a thing for me,

8:33

you know? Not doing anything, it's

8:35

not turning to me. I'm being

8:37

so aggressive and so mean. It's

8:39

just hair. You could say that

8:41

it was blue, purple, but it's

8:43

great. It makes you look old.

8:46

Haggers! Haggers! We're tired. And if

8:48

you want to look tired, look

8:50

whatever you want. Do you? No,

8:53

real. It's just, don't be surprised

8:55

when guys don't want to date

8:57

you. Yikes. Wow, I guess I'm

8:59

just going to have to hope

9:01

that other men are not as

9:03

mean and superficial as you. It's

9:06

not superficial. You just can't dye

9:08

your hair, platinum gray. I'm going

9:10

to get mad at men for

9:12

thinking you're a little, uh... How

9:14

do you feel when you switch

9:16

to GEICO and save on your

9:19

car? Oh! Okay, well we wish

9:21

we could have had a better

9:23

resolution to this for you Heather.

9:25

Thanks for being on the show

9:27

today. How do you feel when

9:29

you switch to GEICO and save

9:32

on your car insurance? It's like

9:34

going to work on one Thursday

9:36

morning and thinking to yourself just

9:38

one more day until Friday. But

9:40

then somebody in the elevator says,

9:42

happy Friday! Then you check your

9:44

phone quickly and discover today is

9:47

actually Friday. So yes, happy Friday,

9:49

random stranger in the elevator, happy

9:51

Friday indeed. Yep, switching and saving

9:53

with Geico feels just like that.
