Things can change at the drop of a hat on this podcast. I'm engaged. It's like the ER. What? Are you engaged? No. That's not out of the realm of possibility. I would hope I would hear in a different way than this, but anyway.
Yeah, you would definitely...

Well, yeah, busy, busy is the best. I think booked and busy, there's a reason that's like a confident thing to say.
Chapter 4: Are excessive exclamation points and emojis a dating red flag?
Like I, you know, idle hands are the devil's playground. That's true. Isn't that the saying?
Yes. I actually have always thought that about dating too. Like the busier you are, the more, the like better you are with dating because you don't have time to like get to in your head. You're just like going, you know. Totally. You got shit going on. You're not like, you can like ruminate or overthink about someone.
Chapter 5: What should you do if your partner talks about marriage but seems indifferent?
I think if you've got too much free time.
Listen, it's, you can either get with me during my off hours or I got to go. I do think busy, there's like a, you know, like anything, there's a, there's like a, you know, there's too much of anything. So, you know, like the, there's such a thing as using busy as your excuse to not getting to know someone.
I mean, I had that when you were trying to introduce me to your friend where it was your friend's sister. And we had a huge debate about it, but it did feel like two people, if I were to admit fault, two people who were like, it's my schedule and, you know, that's it. Fit it around me. And there's like a happy medium. You want to be busy enough that you're happy, but not...
busy enough that you use it to like test people and whether they can find a minute for you or you can find a minute for them.
Chapter 6: How do you decide if being compared to a porn star is a deal breaker?
And that's a thing also. It's funny. Like there is like a, there is a busy, there are people who use busyness as a way of like almost superiority.
It's the least attractive quality. I don't have time for this. Right, right. And I've had a few people say to me, you know, these next few weeks, I'll go over my schedule. I hate saying I'm busy. I hate, like, I love being busy, but I hate saying it to people. Like, you know, I'm here in LA.
Chapter 7: What are the implications of farting in a relationship?
I'm coming to New York today. I'm going to go to Austin literally Friday, which is in two days. So I'm going to go LA, New York, Austin, and then I'm going to be there for shows. And then I'm going to be, thank you if you came, if you're listening. And then I'm going to be back to New York, going to a wedding with Emily on Friday in Connecticut. It's her friend's wedding.
Let me ask you a question. A wedding in Connecticut in the middle of the country, like in the middle of like nowhere, Connecticut. Connecticut's not that big.
I feel like Connecticut's not that big to be like in the middle of nowhere.
Chapter 8: How can you navigate dating in a digital age?
It is. You'd be surprised. There is a middle of Connecticut area that has its own like wine region randomly. Why don't you name the town? Middletown, Connecticut. Am I allowed to say it?
That sounds like some place that's in the middle of Connecticut. How did they get that name?
Maybe I just made that up. Maybe that's something. I only half listen to Emily. I get like one word every sentence, and that's what I've.
Middletown? Yes. That's like Mike whenever we go on vacation. He has no idea where we're going.

You're like a frontiersman. Black tie.
Yeah. Johnny Appleseed over here. Black tie optional for a middle of nowhere wedding. Why would- I hate optional.
Don't you think that's a little weird? I hate black tie optional. Just be black tie or don't be black tie. I don't want the option. I want to know. What to wear. Too many options.
It's a lesson for life. You're absolutely right. Tell people what to do. Be a leader. Be a leader. It's your wedding. Let people talk shit or not at your decisions.
