- 0:00Speaker 1: So if you're doing the dating thing, maybe you're just
- 0:03Speaker 1: starting to date somebody. Yes, maybe tonight happens to be
- 0:07Speaker 1: your third date.
- 0:09Speaker 2: And what does the third date mean?
- 0:11Speaker 1: Well, according to this article, that's what you bring up
- 0:14Speaker 1: the prenum. Yes, third date.
- 0:16Speaker 2: Yes. So there's a divorce lawyer here in New York City.
- 0:20Speaker 2: His name is James Sexton, and he has gone viral
- 0:22Speaker 2: because he made a post advising people that if you
- 0:27Speaker 2: make it to date three, which third date means, are
- 0:30Speaker 2: you starting to get along? That you bring up a prenup?
- 0:34Speaker 1: And I guess the thinking is early, earlier.
- 0:39Speaker 2: The better, he said. I know it's not romantic, he said,
- 0:43Speaker 2: but early conversations about money, expectations and deal breakers will
- 0:48Speaker 2: help weed out problems before they snowball. He said. It's
- 0:51Speaker 2: not about planning for divorce. It's about clarity, transparency, making
- 0:56Speaker 2: sure both people are on the same page. And he
- 0:58Speaker 2: says that you know, we ensure our homes, our businesses,
- 1:01Speaker 2: our health, why not our marriages. So he thinks that
- 1:04Speaker 2: you should start talking prenup on the third date and
- 1:07Speaker 2: see how the person reacts, see if they align with
- 1:10Speaker 2: you financially, like what your goals are?
- 1:13Speaker 1: Right? Yeah, because if you're dating for two or three
- 1:15Speaker 1: years and then you bring it up, I mean that
- 1:18Speaker 1: could just open up a whole can of worms.
- 1:20Speaker 2: Oh it's this is so so delicate. I mean bringing
- 1:23Speaker 2: this up. I've seen people bring it up right before
- 1:26Speaker 2: they get married, right like they've already were engaged and
- 1:29Speaker 2: we're approaching a wedding and family members will advise somebody
- 1:34Speaker 2: to mention it and it's a hot topic.
- 1:37Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's.
- 1:38Speaker 2: Late in the game, and it could you know, you
- 1:40Speaker 2: don't want to blind somebody, blindside someone with it. But
- 1:43Speaker 2: the third date seems a little presumptuous. But okay, that's
- 1:46Speaker 2: what he's saying.
- 1:47Speaker 1: After how many drinks do you bring it up by?
- 1:49Speaker 2: Yeah, after a few drinks. It is World Cocktail Day.
- 1:52Speaker 1: All right, right, right right, and by the old fashioned
- 1:54Speaker 1: the number one cocktail, right.
- 1:56Speaker 2: Yeah, Margarita comes in second for somewhere too. Mohito, Moscow, Mule,
- 2:03Speaker 2: negronim or Tina Manhattan, Pina Colada, whiskey sour. Those are
- 2:06Speaker 2: our favorite cocktails. Yeah, one of those, and you might
- 2:10Speaker 2: be able to bring it up a little better. I
- 2:12Speaker 2: don't know.
- 2:12Speaker 1: You know another reason we're number one, folks, We can
- 2:14Speaker 1: transition from a prenup conversation to the hot cocktails in America.
- 2:19Speaker 1: I mean, you do. We can get two topics in here.
- 2:21Speaker 2: Well, yeah, because maybe they go the hand in.
