And now a Blaze Media podcast.
So Best Buy releases their Black Friday ad.
Racist.
Right.
I thought we couldn't say Black Friday anymore.
My phone no longer says Black Friday.
We were just talking about this the other day that Black Friday is gone.
Have a nice day.
Like why are we still referencing this Black Friday as Black Friday?
And now Best Buy has released their Black Friday ads.
Racist!
With the, I know, but it's, and with they're tying it in with Apple door busters, TV deals,
and I'm not opposed to Best Buy.
I'm a fan.
I love Best Buy.
I have like three credit cards from Best Buy.
I, you know, I've purchased many products from Best Buy.
However,
Racist!
If they're going to continue to promote this.
Hate Division.
Divisive Day in America.
I might have to rethink where I get my electronics.
Seriously.
business now on Black Friday.
I mean, there, I look, we went, we dove in the other day thinking about, because they've taken
it away from some calendars, right? It's not listed as Black Friday anymore. I was telling
you about it and I was kind of like upset. So I looked at my one calendar on my, on my Android phone,
still has Black Friday, still listed as Black Friday. Leslie took it away because I just did an
update today. Wonderfully took it away. Holy cow. My Apple phone says,
Nope, still says Black Friday.
Day after Thanksgiving.
Well, duh, that's what it is.
No, it's Black Friday.
No, I'm sorry, it's Black Friday.
Yes, it is.
There's still Black Friday on my Android.
Our founding father.
This calendar, I think, is my Gmail calendar.
So it's at Google, those racist bastards.
I think.
I don't see what I got here.
I don't want to manage it.
Well, who, who handles Android?
Like, where do you get your software from?
from Android.
Duh.
Yeah, but there has to be someone backing that.
No, it's Android.
Android.
Android.
Android.
Google calendar.
So no, so I don't have the Google Calendar installed from my Gmail.
So this is Samsung.
Samsung Calendar, yeah.
Android racist calendar.
It ties in with my phone, yeah.
Well, mine says day after Thanksgiving, which I'm sorry, I'm not going to celebrate the day after Thanksgiving.
No, you go shopping.
You go Black Friday shopping.
And you get the best deals.
The door busters?
What is the door busters?
Those you say right, door busters.
Why wait till Black Friday.
Order now.
Friday, Friday.
Yeah, don't do that.
Not anymore.
I remember.
And this is like a thousand years ago,
but I literally remember
after Thanksgiving
that Friday morning,
Black Friday morning.
Weeking up between the morning.
My mother and grandpa and grandma and aunt.
Everybody's up.
Cousins all packing into a couple of cars and going shopping.
It was a good time for me because I didn't have to go.
Oh, really?
I just get to stay home and...
Wait.
Wait.
You were smoking?
Get the fireplace going.
Uh, yes.
At that time?
Oh, yeah.
How old were you?
I mean, when we were living on Snow Avenue, I was 14.
Okay.
I'll allow it.
I'll allow it.
But I mean, way before then, no.
Wait, what?
Way before that.
Probably about 11.
I would not allow that.
10 or 11.
No.
Funny, I didn't ask.
I would not allow that.
I didn't ask, hey, can I be allowed to smoke?
I just smoked.
No.
I did.
Before my father, now my father passed away, my real dad passed away when I was 14.
And that's when we moved into a better house.
Weird how that happened.
Right.
Anyway.
You're catching the check.
I don't know.
I just, what's a?
Oh, my.
Cash in that check.
Bills on bills on bills.
Rain in cash.
Yeah,
couldn't stop it from happening.
But my mom was like,
let's go.
Bills on bills on bills.
Mom,
no, let's go.
Bills on bills on bills.
I just remember that
I remember once when my dad was still alive,
so I had to have been 11 or 12
coming into the house
and we were watching some stupid show
on our little black and white freaking TV
that was about 10 inches big.
that's your plasma
yes that was our plasma
and uh
go change the channel
no but dad that's just a second channel
I'm not watching that turn it
so your dad died
uh yeah I know okay but before he died
I remember coming into the house
and uh kind of laying on the living floor
watching TV with him and he's going
you know I could tell if you were smoking I could smell
I could smell cigarette smoke on you
and I remember thinking laying on the floor
going, then why haven't you said anything?
Because I just got done having a cigarette, idiot.
How many shoes did you get thrown at you?
No, I didn't say.
I said that to myself, you understand.
No, I didn't say that to him.
Oh, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay, okay.
I just said, oh, okay, outside.
Loud voice.
Loud voice.
Okay, no problem.
Inside voice.
Inside voice.
You shouldn't catch me then, idiot, because I just got done having a cigarette
outside before I came inside.
I mean, why did he shoot?
Right?
I mean, his way, maybe he should have kicked my butt.
It definitely should have kicked your butt.
But.
So what were you smoking back in the day?
Was it Marlboro Reds?
No, those days were, those days were new ports and cools.
Okay.
Whatever we could get our hands on.
I was going to say, is it something like whatever?
The grocery store threw in the back because they got wet.
Right.
I know my good friend at the time.
I don't remember the one that gave you the porn magazines.
Yeah, he had the newspaper route and the pharmacy throughout old bags and old
cigarettes once a month.
They were ours.
Once a month.
And then you sell them.
So whatever they, well, yeah, the porn mags, you gotta have money.
And what are we supposed to be broke?
No, America, capitalism.
Absolutely not.
And we just, you know, we kept the cigarettes.
We had our clubhouse and whatever they were, they were smoking.
I like those better.
Those are mine.
You look so happy right now.
Everybody looking on the cameras.
You look so happy right now.
Good times.
You don't get those days back, man.
It's like this glow of happiness coming from.
I'll get those days back.
You kidding me?
Up upstairs in the neighbor's garage with the porn bags and the cigarettes.
That doesn't get much better than that.
So a while ago on Chewing the Fat, we had Dove Haikadan,
and he talked about his pending lawsuit against Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez
and her social media account blocking him.
By the way, I believe that none of these government officials should block anyone, period.
should be left up to the
to the capital of the police
or the secret service.
If there actually is harassment,
they can take care of it and make it go away.
But after that, no, not at all.
But Dove, you've had this case going on.
You've been battling it.
And we have a resolution.
Right?
Breaking news here on CTF Newsroom.
You know, when Chewing the Fat records,
news happens.
Yeah, well, let me tell you, it's quite remarkable.
I never expected that AOC would apologize.
I don't think she's ever apologized for anything in her life.
That's probably true.
So, you know, I was pretty confident that judge would rule in our favor
based on the Court of Appeals case recently involving the president.
But for her to, you know, come forward and, oh, my God, you know,
say everything that was like really throw the towel in.
Right.
She was wrong.
It was improper.
She sincerely apologizes.
I mean,
that's like pretty incredible stuff.
So it's a start.
But, you know,
she is really out of control in terms of the things that she says
and the things that she does.
I mean,
just over the weekend,
there was a demonstration against the police by young people.
here in New York City, and they were jumping turnstiles at the transit system.
Right.
And she actually supported them.
You know, she had pity because, you know, 275 to get on the train was too much.
So she actually said it was okay to break the law.
And the signs that were carried by some of these people against the police, I mean, just absolutely shocking.
This is a member of the United States Congress saying it's okay to break the law.
It's okay. It's not a problem. It's amazing. It truly is. Now, Dov, she was scheduled to appear or testify, actually.
That's an appearance in front of the federal court judge. It's just an appearance. It doesn't count as a testimony.
But she was scheduled to testify. That never happened, right? I mean, we settled this deal before she was supposed to testify.
Exactly. You know, a couple of weeks ago when I was in court and I testified, and her campaign manager was on the stand.
and the judge, in this case, one of the senior federal judges,
asked her campaign manager who takes care of that account,
why did AOC block Dove Heikened?
Yeah.
And the campaign manager says, I don't know.
I don't know.
I mean, it was pretty incredible.
Right.
And the next thing that happens, the judge says,
I would like the member of Congress to come in.
Her lawyers say, okay, we got a date.
And the date was, of course, yesterday.
you know, I was looking forward to it, really, and not just because of her testimony.
I really wanted to, that was my plan.
I was going to confront her directly about some of the issues, you know, face-to-face,
you know, with respect, but face-to-face, I didn't get the chance.
And I think what happened was, what was she going to say if she appeared in front of the judge?
The judge was going to ask her, why did you block Doe-Vikin?
She would have had no answer.
Right.
I mean, her answer would have had to be a lie, which, you know, she...
Well, you don't do that in a federal court.
I understand that.
I mean, I realize that's serious business.
I know.
I realize she's okay with Billy jumping over the turnstile going down to the subway,
but you start lying in federal court, and that becomes an issue.
You got it.
And everything, all the tweets that we did over the period of time, you know, we went through
every one of them.
And anyone who checked them, they were all responsible.
respectful, tough, no question about it, challenging her in a very tough way, but never crossing the
line, never being threatening. And she knew that. In spite of that, over the past few months,
she gave the impression in interviews that I did something nefarious, that I threatened or did
something behaved in a way that was not appropriate. I mean, that's what she was. It wasn't true.
Right. I mean, but that's why she's, I mean, she said that she's blocked, what, less than 20 people,
and she blocked them because of harassment.
Let me tell you, you got close to 6 million people following you, right?
Would you think that a couple of people maybe like 20, you know,
maybe being a little tough or a little strong or disagreeing with you?
That you wouldn't give a darn, would you think so?
You would think that.
I mean, right?
It's crazy, right?
It is.
20 people, 6 million followers, 20 people.
And I don't know if she's aware of this, and she's, you know, maybe she isn't.
You know, I mean, she's, I don't necessarily believe that she is the brightest bulb in the box,
but maybe she should know this.
There's a way on Twitter, it's called a mute button.
Yeah, you don't have to listen to the person.
Thank you.
Right.
And you still, you still, you still, they're still part of the deal.
I, I really, it's, it amazes me that people get so upset overseeing someone's tweet.
It really does.
And all I did was disagree with her.
very strongly, especially on the concentration camp remark, where she referred to illegal immigrants coming into this country, and compared it basically to the Holocaust.
Yes, she did.
And as you know, my mother in 1944 went to Auschwitz. My grandmother was with my mother, other members of the family.
And let me tell you what they did in that concentration camp. My grandmother went straight to the gas chamber that day with other members.
That's a concentration camp.
Thank you.
Being worked to death, you know, and being experimented.
Your grandmother just didn't go there on her own and decide, hey, let's go to the concentration.
Yeah.
You know, rounded up, my mother put, I remember she told this, she was young, very young.
She told me her parents put three locks on the door believing they were going to come back one day.
Right.
Just horrible.
And of course.
Yeah.
You know, that was it.
Horrible.
Now, listen, I think it's important to say that, you know, I know that you're a,
you know, just a New Yorker and you're, you know, a known Democrat.
I don't know that AOC, while she is tagged a Democrat, she's more leading toward the, you know, that socialist tag, the Democratic tag.
But it's just important to say that, you know, this wasn't about any kind of, it was more of, let's get this right and be right than a political thing, right?
You know, what's incredible here is that she's a progressive, you know, liberal, proud to wear those labels.
And you would think that people who are very liberal, liberal means, I assume, open-minded.
It's supposed to be.
You respect, exactly.
But it is a lie.
And I've learned about all of my life that, you know, liberal progressive, as long as you agree with the progressive at the liberal point of view, you're okay.
If you have a different point of view, you're the enemy.
You get blocked, right?
You get blocked, right? It's harassing.
You get blocked and worse.
You get called names.
You get ostracized.
You get what goes on today in terms of politically correct is sick, is dangerous for this country.
I mean, it is, you know, what happened to respecting other people's point of view, even when you hate that point of view?
What happened to that?
And unfortunately, it's the freaking double.
standard that exists in this country.
If you are conservative
and you touch the line,
you get crucified.
If you are a Democrat,
liberal, progressive, you can do
almost anything and you're okay.
So this is, obviously,
you're very happy about the outcome,
and AOC, you know, had to apologize
and, you know,
and come back with, you know,
no excuse for blocking
you and following you.
But I'm a little disappointed
that I realize that this was specifically about your case, but I'm a little disappointed that
the judge didn't say, you know, guess what? You don't get to block anyone.
It'll fight me on that.
That's an important message that you're actually mentioning right now. No elected official.
You said it before. No, if you're an elected official, you should have the guts. You should
be, you should not cower, just because someone disagrees with you, run and holly.
or pretend you're, I don't want to hear that person.
I don't want to hear what that person has to say.
I mean, this law, the court of appeals now with AOC,
no elected official has a right to block anyone, plain and simple.
That would be, yes, thank you.
That would be great.
So let's take a step back away from AOC for a second
and talk about what the heck is going out in your city of New York.
Again, another example, out of control anti-Semitism.
This weekend alone, just this weekend, Friday night on the Sabbath in Borough Park, a community in Brooklyn,
you had one group of hoodlums in a car attacking three different groups of people in the community.
All who are identifiably Jewish Orthodox, the numbers speak for themselves.
The numbers are out of control.
We've never had anything like this ever before in terms of the numbers of, you know, the incidents of hate.
I mean, Jews being assaulted, Jewish blood in the streets of New York.
And unfortunately, sadly, the mayor of the city, I know him, I just spend a close to an hour talking to him,
they're not dealing with the reality of what's going on.
And let me give you one example.
and this is part of the politically correct.
If you look at the videos where there is video, thank God, very often there is.
You can see the people doing the attacking.
You can see the anti-Semites.
You can see the people beating up on Jews here in New York.
It so happens that in 99% of the cases that we can see it, we can see it with our eyes,
the perpetrators happen to be African-American.
Do you think anyone is discussing this?
I told the mayor.
Not a chance.
We're not attacking the black community.
We're saying there is a problem when all of these attacks are emanating from people who are African-American.
Thank you.
Something is wrong.
That's the point of the, of it's not the opposite.
It's just, it's very frustrating and maddening that it turns around like that.
Can you imagine, can you imagine if two orthodox Jews, Hasidic Jews, you know, look
Jewish attacked some gay people in the city.
Could you imagine if there were a couple of attacks on the African-American community by people
who are identifiably Jewish?
Could you imagine the demonstrations and the demands for action and the demands for
God knows what?
But Jews?
Jews?
Different standard.
Jews?
Not a problem.
All they do, the only courage these elected officials have, this is their courage.
they condemn antacemicism and they do nothing nothing i'm telling you how do you solve a problem
if you don't even recognize the problem it's crazy i it's certainly is crazy listen i know you uh i know
you uh i know you're busy you got time i won't keep you anymore although i will say that uh uh you
you and the mayor of new york are you know bud buds or anything are you because i mean you said you
know i mean that's a little disheartening to me a little bit well well what i ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Maybe you could block them or something, you know?
I want to tell you, I had a long conversation, but those who know me, you know, we could be buddies, but, you know, I'm very straightforward.
And when it comes to Jews being physically assaulted, it's a big problem, yes.
I get into my freaking bloodstream.
And it should.
And I don't blame you.
I'm with you on that, and I'm not taking that lightly at all.
Not at all.
By the way, I want to thank you personally, as I've done to other people who have.
been very kind for, you are responsible as well for this great victory on AOC, because the support
that I have from people like you and others, being there, bringing attention to the issue,
makes all the difference in the world. So I just want to personally thank you for that.
That's very kind. Thank you very much. No, no, no, no, no. Stop. Sit down. Sit down.
Thank you.
No, sit down.
No, thank you very much, man.
I appreciate it very much and congratulations.
And we look forward.
I look forward to continue to talk.
Absolutely.
Have a great day.
Be safe.
Take care.
Bye.
All right.
So a while ago, we did a story on dating apps.
And we had a list of a few that were how they were being used and what they were for.
And then now I see another story that talks about the 37 best.
best dating apps.
And I believe as I'm going through this list,
I don't see the CTF dating app on there.
I'm like, what the heck?
But did we officially launch?
Well, don't start bogging me down with facts.
Don't do it.
Because we have to launch before they can rate us.
You sure about that?
Yes, absolutely.
Is that how it works?
Yes.
Are you positive about that?
I'm positive about that, yeah.
So earlier today, we're in the studio
and here in the Chewing the Fat headquarters
here at Mercury Studios.
And we're talking with Blake, who works here at the Blaze Radio Network.
And she does production work for it.
There we go.
That's much better description.
And she does freelance production work.
Ooh, nice.
That's a good one.
And she was commenting on life as a millennial on the dating app scene.
Very interesting.
And it got me to thinking that.
Blake to launch the CTF dating.
Wait, what?
Maybe we used Blake to launch the CTF dating.
Oh, this is going to be great.
Because we've got to have some kind of launch partner.
And we need a female.
And, well, are you identifying as a female today?
Yeah.
Okay, thanks.
All right.
We do have to ask.
Thank you for a clip.
I like that you clarified.
Thank you.
You're welcome.
She's a millennial.
I feel heard.
So, uh.
Shut up.
I feel.
Bird.
You just lost three swipes.
Listen,
no podcast is more woke than this one.
Oh.
Okay.
Absolutely.
No one supports the he,
her, she,
it,
I campaign more than this podcast.
Jeffrey, your pronouns?
Your pronouns?
Just he,
him.
Okay, is that a problem?
Yeah.
Okay.
That's what I'm identifying as today.
He him.
Do you change it up from day to day?
I do.
Hello.
Gender is fluid.
Thank you.
My mistake.
Whatever I feel like I put it on my email and that's what I am today.
So you get a response to me.
On Monday, it might be, hey, thanks, Jeffie, he, he, he.
On Tuesday it might be he, she.
And I might leave it for he, she for a couple of days.
Anyway.
Thank you.
Thank you.
So anyways, we go down the list.
All right, the best free and social dating apps.
And there's, and look, CTF is going to be free too.
I'm not going to charge any money.
Hello.
So Blake, welcome to the show.
Thank you.
Nice to have you on.
Nice to be here.
I was frustrated for you, hearing your struggles of dating app struggles that you have.
Yeah.
And I was concerned that perhaps we're raising some males that aren't quite sure how to best promote themselves.
Perhaps it's more definitely.
It's not a maybe
It's a fact
So you do use the dating apps
I use the dating apps
Yes
The internet
Do you
That's a whole worldwide web thing
It's the whole world
So but okay
So there are
According to this there's 37
And now 38 if we launch CTF
Truly had no idea that there is that many
Really?
Yeah
So you've got
Let's go let's do the top ten here
I am truly curious
So what's number one?
Is that supposed to be like the most successful?
The top 10 is Badu.
No idea what that is.
400 million members worldwide.
Maybe I'm on the wrong apps.
Maybe that's my problem.
Nine is Facebook dating.
That's a thing?
Eight is Clover.
I was on that for like a week.
Seven is Pilly, H-I-L-Y?
I've seen ads for that, but I haven't tried it.
Six is coffee meets bagel.
That sounds dumb.
Five is how about we?
Nope.
A meet cute rolled into an app that helps announce.
Don't call it a meat cute.
It's the internet.
It's not cute.
Four is ship.
Ooh.
Nope.
Three, Bumble.
Yep, I'm on that one.
Bumble is mostly four.
I thought you were.
I, no.
Are you heterosexual?
I'm embarrassed because.
I'm into the dudes.
Okay.
Bumble is not just for.
for ladies on ladies.
That's not what we hear.
That's not.
The word on the street is
bumble is for Bose.
That's not what I've heard.
Really?
I'm the millennial in the situation.
I mean, I'm close.
I'm right there on the edge.
I'm right there on the edge of the millennial.
Two is hinge.
Yeah, I was on that for a second.
Really?
Yeah.
Okay.
And number one, of course, is Tinder.
Yeah.
Being in my existence.
Tinder is number one.
Tinder's been the cranking Dap.
date app site for quite some time now.
You know, it started on the college campuses.
Then it got huge over the Olympics because they advertised it and all the all
the Olympians were hooking up with Tinder.
Yeah, I saw that on Buzzbee.
And so you used Tinder.
I do.
Have you used Tinder and been out on a date where sex wasn't thought of?
Let me stop you for a second.
Because I know for a fact.
for a fact how Tinder is used on college campuses.
Wait, what?
Yes, but my oldest son for a number of years on a college campus.
And I don't want to mention which one, Columbia, Missouri,
University of Missouri, where there were plenty of nights that Tinder was used.
Sure.
And you swipe right and an hour later, you're knocking on the door.
Okay, well, I personally do not use it for that.
Really?
I'm not...
What the hell are you using before?
Either the use of the app has changed since it, like, first came out, or my age has
something to do with it.
Because when I joined, I was in college, I was like, in my, you know, I was 20.
This was six years ago?
Yeah.
Five or six years ago?
Yeah.
I joined, like, freshman sophomore year of college, and, like, people were actually
having a conversation.
Now I'm 25, and it's like, let's just do it and call it a day.
So it's just a complete hookup app.
Yeah.
And I don't know if that's my age or if that's just like what tender is now,
which it might have been then too and I was just getting good ones.
But you were saying that now you're receiving instead of,
see, my impression of Tinder is you have a cover pick.
Right.
And that's what you're looking at.
And I either swipe left.
No, no, that is she or he doesn't look like for me.
Yeah, it's like truly like hot or not.
Oh, I like that one.
Right, right, right.
And then I swipe right.
And that sends an alert to you saying I swiped right.
Right.
And then you get to.
Well, it sends you an alert if you match.
So you have to both say yes.
Okay.
Okay.
Yeah.
All right.
And then is then if you, how do I communicate?
You said that then you get a pick that's a from the male body part of this person.
Yeah.
Well.
Does that, and that happens after you both like each other and communicate, say, hey, how you
doing?
How you doing?
I'm thinking about what are you doing tonight.
So like the Tinder app sometimes.
What's the music?
I'm my sex music.
It's not necessary.
Okay. The Tinder app sometimes like it takes, it's, it has like glitches sometimes
and it takes a long time for like the message to go through or like to see if they've seen it or whatever.
By a long time you mean.
Like more than 10 seconds and like I'm a millennial.
I don't want to sit there and wait for it.
So a lot of them are like, here's my Snapchat.
Thanks.
I don't get to music when I get the room shot for the things along.
Anyway.
But like, so they'll be like, oh, here's my Snapchat or here's my phone number.
It's easier.
It's faster.
And like, yeah, I'm in naive because I'm like, yeah, so much easier.
But like in their mind, they're like, hey, it's photos and it'll lead to whatever they're looking for.
But in my mind, I'm like, yeah, it is easier and it is faster.
You're so right.
And then the second you give them their username, hey, here's a picture of my male genitalia.
Right.
Now, how hot does that make you?
Not at all.
It's so unasked for.
I don't want it.
I'm not going to give it back.
And like, also, where's the romance?
Have you been through the full surgery yet?
No.
So you're not going to be.
Yeah, you're right.
Silly me.
But, I mean, I'm just not.
Oh, you mean a naked picture.
Oh, I'm so sorry.
Yeah, that is where I was going with that conversation.
Yeah.
I can see how you'd be confused.
I don't, sorry.
But, I mean, maybe I'm just old facts.
but I'm like at least ask me like my favorite color first or like if I like dogs
right before you show me what's under your clothes I'm asked for okay so let's say
then you say well you still kind of like you still kind of like the guy's face yeah all right
and you're not opposed to his man part?
See, I don't, when I get him, it's almost like I'm shell-shocked.
Like, I'll, like, close it so fast because I'm just like, ah, yeah, you know?
Like, I'm not the kind of girl that's like, oh, dang.
No, it's like, oh, God, penis.
You know?
I don't roll that way.
It just does zip for you.
No.
Does it push you over the edge like you're not going to go back to that person?
No, but that might just be like I'm too nice.
Like I'll still, like, I'll be like, oh, cool.
So you're, oh, cool, that just makes me want to send more.
Because if I don't respond, they'll be like, hey, did you like that?
And I'm not going to, like, crush their spirits, me like, like, no, that's gross, dude.
Like, I, if someone, if you sent a male part, this is, I don't like the visual of this where I'm going with this.
But, like, if you said that to a girl, you were trying to, like, woo.
Right.
And she was just like, ew, no.
No.
It'd be crushing.
Right?
I don't want to be the soul crusher.
Like, I don't want them to be sad, but I don't want them to keep going.
You know?
Because, like, it's nothing against your manhood.
I just don't want it.
Right.
But the way you're doing it means that I'll just give her a better angle.
Well, that's not what I'm.
I don't want that to mean that, though.
It's just, I figured no response means either like, hey, we should take the hint
and that she doesn't want it or, you know.
So inside you and your friends, is that happening a lot?
I mean, is that really, is that going out?
With my other friends?
No, all my friends are, like, coupled up.
So, like, maybe they are, but they want them.
They're asking for them or something from their significant others.
Most of my friends are in relationships are married now.
So, like, I don't have very many single friends anymore.
25 props.
Oh, no.
Yeah.
So many weddings.
Oh, no.
So many.
Always a bridesmaid, never a bride.
I don't really care about getting married, but like being single is a bummer.
Okay, so you said you were on hinge.
Yeah, for like a week.
And nothing happened.
You just sound happy?
I feel like maybe I didn't understand how it worked.
Or like maybe I...
Simply put this dating app finds matches for you that already exist in your wider social network.
Yeah.
So anyone you chat to won't be a stranger in the strictest sense.
a good feature for women who might feel apprehensive about joining a dating app for the first time.
I don't think I like that it connects you to people you already know, though.
Like if I wanted to date someone I already know, then I would date them.
Right.
Like it's the point of.
I already know you.
Stop asking me.
Yeah.
The point is to meet new people.
I don't want to say strangers, but like, yeah.
Okay.
So what about, let's go to Bumble.
Bumble is for Bose.
Okay.
Bumble, I used Bumble before and I got off of it.
I wasn't into it.
I don't like being the one to message them first,
which is like,
because that's how it works,
is the girl message them,
has 24 hours to say something.
Right,
only allows women to message first.
Yeah,
and then the guys have 24 hours to respond,
and if they don't,
you get unmatched.
And I don't like how many,
like think of something clever to say
that's going to be like,
ooh, maybe he likes me now,
you know?
Like, because you're judging me off my face,
but then now it's the personality.
Right.
And I have to make my mark.
And I have 24 hours to do so.
I mean,
that's when you're thinking about sending a picture.
right?
No.
Got to be this.
Yeah, that would, I mean,
want him to remember me.
Right.
Here's my part.
I'm saying.
No.
Not how I roll.
Hard pass.
Okay.
So,
I have so much to talk to you about Blake.
I want to continue this conversation
and now I'm being told to,
what?
Let her stay for a little bit longer.
Well, you keep telling me to wrap it to freak up.
Can I just play some music?
I'm funny.
He wants me here.
and just play some music to, you know, cut the tensions about, you know, pictures being sent when you're not wanted and everybody needs to like focus.
All right. Well, we've taken a little breather now. Everybody's relaxed. We're taking it easy. No problem.
But I was looking through this list. Now, first, we've got to get, we've got to figure out if we're going to launch the CTF dating line, we're going to need you to be the voice of it right now.
Okay.
So we're going to have to get you to say,
Hey, this is Blake.
Thanks for calling the CTF date line.
I don't like the way that your tone is.
I can't do that.
What do you mean?
I'll just, hey, this is Blake.
I'll do it for you.
Okay.
Hey, this is Blake.
Thanks for calling the CTF dating line.
Call me.
No.
I don't like it.
What?
I don't like it.
I'll get you some dates.
Hey.
This is Blake.
Thanks for calling a CTF dating line.
Leave you a number and I'll call you back.
Peace out.
What do you think?
I like it.
Come on now.
Come on now.
I didn't not like that.
No?
I bet you we get you some dates.
That's going up this weekend.
See, here's the thing.
I have a boy name.
That's going to be very confusing too.
I feel like you're...
What's your name?
It's Blake?
My name is Blake.
We're co-workers?
That's not really a boy.
That's not a real boy, thank you.
That's a gender neutral.
Every single person I have ever met has said, oh, I've never met a girl named Blake before.
I don't believe I've ever said that.
So you can't say you.
You just lied on the show.
Absolutely.
Well, maybe I'm a liar.
I never said that.
Well, okay, outside of this building, people say that to me.
Where they're like, oh, I've never met a girl Blake.
Why are you now?
Maybe I just need, I don't know.
Is there a girl Blake club in Dallas?
I should join?
There is now.
There is.
It's called this.
Okay.
Opening this weekend is the Girl Blake Club in Dallas.
4,500 square feet in Frisco made for fun, fun, fun, fun.
When you drive to Friscoe and you see, hey, isn't that the Amazon store?
Right next door is the Blake store.
Stop in.
All right.
Oh, God.
All right, so back to the dating apps.
Now, really, I'm concerned about it's back to the dating apps.
All right, so we're putting up the first one, though.
on the dating line, the CTF hotline.
I'm telling you that.
Oh, God.
There's all kinds on this list that I feel like, you know,
this doesn't even mention like the Farmers Circle dating apps.
I've done Match.com and I'm really sad to say that I actually paid for it.
I spent money for that.
And that didn't work out at all.
Did you meet anyone at all?
It was the least, no, it was the least successful out of all the options I've ever done.
Wow.
Like it was, I got a lot of like 40-year-old men who were right,
They were just all about the Blake.
But that seems like match.
That's what Match.com is is, right?
Yeah, I think Match.com is meant for older.
Right.
Yeah.
So it just wasn't for me.
Because I was also like 22 and I was on it.
That's where the sugar daddy's hang out for the gold be able.
Yeah, I found that out.
I even kind of feel like that Match.com is more of the guy that's divorced.
Yeah.
A lot of kids.
A lot of them had children.
And I was like, well, I'm a child.
Look at them have a date.
I know.
Well, the guy that is divorced.
Mine, call me.
That is divorced, but he's like 40 years old, 50 years old.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
And they're looking for a date and they want to get out there.
If you're old enough to hang out with my parents, then we're not going to be cool.
We're not going to date.
That's why you're not dating anybody right now.
Right.
Because my standards are below 40.
Yes.
I feel like that's fine.
My age gap is like 24 to like 33.
I feel like as the oldest all go.
So you ever thought about maybe, I don't know, not lying, but lying.
And joining like, say Ashley Madison?
I don't know what that is.
It's an app for cheaters.
Like everyone on there is cheating or they're like, I want to be the other woman.
Or both, yeah.
I'm not into that.
See again, I think I'm with Chris.
This is what you do.
I already can't find a single person.
I'm not going to find someone to be.
All right.
So some of these on this list, date fit,
Dine
Date fit if the gym
is your temple
And obviously
Hard baths for me
This is
Have you try that one?
That's a no-go
Chewing the fat
Is there
Thank you
I mean
Date fit and chewing the fat
Are gonna have
We're gonna be duke in that
I think it's gonna be
Like tied with them
Yeah
Dine now Dine
Dine is
is probably
Another chewing the fat
category
Yeah
Is that about
You just want to meet up
For good old-fashioned
dinner and drinks
Come on man
I know
I do that
Okay, there you go, dine.
Okay.
Lucid.
More and more people are choosing to be alcohol-free.
In fact, in the rest, 30% of the people don't drink at all.
This is why an app like Lucid is perfect for people who want to go out and enjoy life, but do it without the booze.
No, I like to drink a beer.
So I feel like that helps because I'm awkward.
So I need that.
That's where the alcohol fools you.
I'm just letting you know.
There's 28 on this list.
Holy cow, there's all kinds of.
A Raya, a relatively new trend of dating apps are ones that are private or membership only.
Ooh, they're charged.
Exclusive.
That's the Ashley Madison right there.
That is the Ashley Madison.
Yeah, Raya.
Right.
That's fancy.
Can we go to the homotype sexual ones?
Maybe.
Well, maybe you get a date through there, right?
You know.
I don't think that's how it works.
I actually, maybe I'm wrong.
I do get, no, that's, I do get hit on by game and more than straightway.
And maybe they're questioning.
Yeah.
Maybe they're unsure.
Yeah.
That's a good day to get to unsure.
Oh my God, Jeffey.
Unsure.
That's a million dollar idea right there.
Teetering the line.
Edit that out.
Anyway, go.
Kitterling the line.
Oh, that's a good one too.
Yeah.
I like that.
Thank you.
Patent pending.
Oh, yeah.
You got to put the dot com in there.
Okay, so there's hater.
Tired of all the lovy-dovey-cunty dating apps.
I went on a date with someone from that, actually.
That's the only app I actually went on a date.
Wow.
And what happened?
Oh, we were very compatible on the app.
It, like, matches you percentage-wise of, like, things you have in common of, like,
what you hate and what you like.
And we were, like, a 93% match.
Wow.
That's pretty good.
Yeah.
And we met in person.
The dude would not talk about anything other than food.
What's wrong with that?
The whole time.
What's wrong with that?
I mean, for like 10 minutes, it's fine.
I feel like you're nervous and you don't,
I'm not sure what to talk about.
I think part of the problem was we had a 40 minute wait time.
And so all of our conversation topics were like done before we even got to dinner.
And then I.
That's what you should have talked about the food is the waiting line.
Yeah, like, what are you going to order?
Right.
What are you going to eat?
What are we actually like here?
Yeah.
Well, it was not just that restaurant though.
It was like.
Does the lady in front of us?
Do you think that she eats too much?
Talk smack about everyone else?
Yeah, yeah.
That could have been fun.
actually. But it was just, it was, it was all around like weird probably because one, his car
broke down. So I had to pick him up from his apartment. His loser. Car broke down.
Looser. Fine too. And then he, sure swipe right. He was like, we're a match. I, I, I, I,
my car broke down. I know if you picked me up. And you bought it. I did. And then he had turned
21 like the week before. So he was like mad that he didn't get carded.
And I was like 23, so I was like, oh, okay, that's...
Did you get carded?
No.
So they were just letting anybody drink anyway, so calm down.
That's wrong with that.
Well, I was 23.
I was way above drinking age.
It's fine.
Yeah, I mean, maybe a little bit sketchy, but it's fine.
I'm, it's fine.
But, I mean, it was nice.
Perhaps the only time you used a hater?
Yeah, well, I used it for a few months.
That was just the only one that I actually met.
Right.
But the people on there were actually pretty good because we had stuff in common.
It wasn't just like, oh, hey, I like your face.
So any private pictures?
Any private pictures?
They weren't sent in pics?
No.
Did I?
I don't think I got any on that way.
Good.
There you go.
Because the haters have already been told, put it away.
Well, one of the things on there that you can say if you like or dislike is penis pictures.
Nice.
I like haters.
I like haters.
I like haters.
I like haters.
I already know.
Not a lot of people are on it, which I think is it's downfall.
But I did, I enjoyed that one.
I got rid of it because I got bored, but there you go.
It was a good one.
There you go.
So if you're,
if you're tired of,
of,
uh,
male body part picks on Tinder when you swipe right,
head to hater.
All right.
There you go.
Subscribe.
Hey,
don't forget to,
I was just to subscribe to chewing the fat.
Did you play the out there?
Yeah, Chris.
Oh.
What a hater.

So I should have had,
uh,
Dove ask,
I just this,
I had this story and I forgot to mention it to Doe when we were
talking about New York, and this happened in Utah.
But a Utah elementary school faculty members, two of them, were suspended over a
Halloween outfit.
So they have a school get together and this kid wears an Adolf Hitler outfit.
Now, what kid has an Adolf Hitler outfit, really?
In Utah?
Come on, man.
In Utah?
I mean, come on.
Who doesn't say, let's go ahead and call your parents, talk to them a little bit.
But no, they allow it.
So now the principal and the teacher are on paid leave over this Nazi costume,
letting the kid that some teachers were talking about out of the video showed the little kid.
The kid's got the Hitler mustache and the swat sticker and the armband.
He was doing the Nazi salute too.
Now, a couple of things from that.
I don't necessarily think that we should be doing that.
But if it happened, wouldn't that be a good teaching event for these kids to rip that
uniform off and burn it and say how bad these people were to people on the planet?
Instead of making, you know, make it a teaching moment.
Instead of trying to run from it and fire people and wonder what's going on.
My real question is, where's the kid getting the Nazi outfit?
The parents are going, oh, you want to go as Aeneoff Hitler?
Okay, let's go.
Hey.
Yeah.
Oh, it's too bad your sister.
Isn't a boy.
We could send her as Stalin.
We could just do all the people.
That'd be great.
You know what?
Maybe the neighbor could go as Mao and you guys could just go as the triple killers.
I mean, now that might actually be funny.
Another teaching moment.
But still.
We'll see what happens in Utah, but I have a feeling it's not going to end well for all.
Letting the kid wear the Nazi outfit.
Okay, so wait, whoa.
I told you to get out of here, but calm down.
Because the one thing that we didn't talk about,
that I feel like is,
I was like the elephant in the room.
Because there's a big story now about Tinder deaths and dating.
Now, I don't want to freak you out because if you Google Tinder date,
murder?
A list is, you know, there's a list.
That is not something I have.
I know that, I know that.
But this story, this story, it happened in New Zealand, so don't even worry about it.
It's not even going to, it doesn't even matter.
I mean, we probably have just a few listeners in New Zealand.
Don't worry about it.
Sure.
Our listeners in New Zealand aren't the Tinder date murder.
So you're fine.
So, but I mean, this girl, and we don't even go into the details about the story.
Because it's not, she's traveling.
details. She's traveling the world. She just went to New Zealand from Peru. She says,
oh, you know, I'd like to go on a date while I'm in New Zealand. I'll just get it from Tinder.
And then she goes on a date and loses her life. Now, great. Now, obviously, the odds are probably
humongous that it's not going to happen. I don't know the odds, but they're, I'm,
My educated guess would be that a lot of it is not going to happen.
But have you ever had any problems or are you concerned about that or any of your friends?
So concerned.
So concerned.
There's weird people everywhere.
And I think the weird ones.
You're telling me.
Yeah.
Exactly.
And I think the weirdest ones are on the internet.
I truly do.
And I'm convinced that everyone I match with on dating apps is a serial killer.
Just like finding their next victim.
Right.
So I really struggle with finally meeting up with them,
which is why I've only been on one date from Hater.
Right.
Like, I think Tinder out of all of them is the one where I'm most sketched out.
Because on Tinder, it's like the, oh, we're looking for a third for our relationship
or like something like that.
And I'm like, oh, God, their wife is going to kill me.
Well, A, you don't know that it's their wife or their husband.
There's usually a couple.
There's usually a picture of both of them.
So there's a couple.
Oh, right.
That's true.
The husband could also kill me.
whoever's, you know, you're right.
It's usually not.
That was just so you know.
You know what else's judge is it's normally a single serial killer,
it's usually not a couple.
But go ahead.
Bonnie and Clyde were a couple of old.
You know.
Mm-hmm.
I gave you a proof just there.
Bonnie and Clyde really weren't on Twitter.
Tudely.
Duche.
Let's just say it.
I just, I'm convinced that they're all looking for their next victim.
Right.
Like Craigslist.
I mean, how do you,
You just have to buy that then, right?
Yeah.
There's one person that I've been talking to for probably over two years, and I still...
It may be time.
I'm a best of a person.
Maybe time either to cut it off or...
I feel like a jerk, too.
It doesn't have to make a decision.
I do.
I feel like a jerk because I was by his house yesterday, and I Snapchat and I'm saying, like,
you know where the guy lives?
I know he lives in, like, I know the town he lives in, and I was driving through, and I was
like, hey, I'm in your name of my life.
Which one is the stalker?
I was driving through.
Yeah, I just have...
Really, officer.
I'm just...
Driving the neighborhood.
I mean, honestly, he could find me wherever he wants.
He has my Snapchat and I have my location on there.
I mean, he could find my house if you truly wanted to.
So that must mean I trust him a little bit.
Right.
But you won't go out on a date with him.
He makes me nervous.
I'm, it makes you like, I don't get the serial killer vibe.
No, not.
Well, I don't know.
But like he's 35.
Right?
And like.
That's still a viable age.
owns his own home.
Wow.
This guy sounds like he sucks.
Exactly.
Right.
An adult who owns property in America.
I hate those people.
No, I just don't think I'm ready for him.
Like, I think he's too put together as a human.
Wow.
My dating experience is so small.
Like, I haven't had a boyfriend since I was 18.
So, like.
Like, like, like, like, like, don't worry.
My CTF dating app is going to hook you up.
I don't trust either one of you to find me in person.
We're going to take care of you.
Take care of you.
Take care of you.
Take care of you.
Take care of you.
Okay, great.
By this time next week, you know what I'm going to be hearing from you?
Thank you.
Yeah.
I'm going to be rolling in all the dates.
Just saying.
I'm also, I'm just saying.
We're a podcast.
They have no idea what I look like.
You know what I'm going to be saying next week to you?
You're welcome.
Okay.
but I really find a struggle that amazes me that I wasn't I wasn't thinking the struggle that a lot of the single millennials and younger go through because you are putting yourself out there for people who maybe don't have your best interest at heart yeah and like I feel like you kind of have to use the internet because no one just walks up to strangers in a bar anymore like I wish they did but it's not like that so you don't just like oh hey that's a
cute dude, I'm going to go talk to him.
Why not?
Because I'm shy.
I don't know.
It's just you don't do it.
And like normally people don't go to bars anymore by themselves because it's unsafe.
And like you don't, you know, you don't.
Okay, but again, you're not by yourself.
But if you see someone that you like.
If I'm with a group of friends, I'm not going to be like, hey, I'm going to go talk to that
hot guy.
Like I'm just, I'm going to hang out with my friends.
And I think that's how guys are too.
Because they go with their guy friends or whatever.
I know they're waiting for you to come up and say, hey, how are you doing?
Okay, well, this is maybe, okay, so maybe the online dating thing isn't my problem, and it's just me that sucks.
I think we've come to that conclusion, but I got to take care of them.
Okay.
I got to take care of.
First of all, obviously, I mean, I don't want anything bad to happen, but I'm just curious of, like, what type of person you're going to be looking for for me.
Oh.
You know me pretty well, so, like, I'm very concerned.
Oh.
I'm concerned.
Blake.
Blake.
Blake.
No.
Like.
Like.
The facial expression.
Blake, Blake, like.
Not reassuring.
Like, don't you worry about it.
Okay.
I got you.
Great.
I'm going to die alone.
Sometimes that might be the best.
