  Speaker 1: Okay, so there's this question going around right now based
• 0:02
  Speaker 1: from this article. And it's like, what makes being single
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: worth it? Because everyone always talks about finding your person,
• 0:08
  Speaker 1: but nobody ever talks about the little luxuries that you
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: give up once you find one.
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: I think about them all the time. Of course you do, John.
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: Like someone said, when they put something down, it is
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: still there eight weeks later, untouched.
• 0:37
  Speaker 2: That's such a good one. That is a good one, man.
• 0:39
  Speaker 2: I put down a spoon and it's gone in five seconds.
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: And think about everything else, too, so you don't have
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: any in-law visits, no splitting holidays, no negotiating what's for dinner.
• 0:49
  Speaker 1: If you don't feel like cleaning the bathroom after you
• 0:51
  Speaker 1: get ready, you don't have to.
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: Well, you've skipped over a big one. No negotiating what's
• 0:54
  Speaker 3: for dinner. Whatever you're hungry for, you have.
• 0:56
  Speaker 2: Exactly.
• 0:57
  Speaker 3: And now you've got the world of DoorDash and Postmates
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: and Uber Eats up open to you.
• 1:02
  Speaker 2: You could be living the life. Yeah.
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: Uh-huh.
• 1:05
  Speaker 1: This one, I kind of, I get. And, I mean,
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: we talk about sleep divorce all the time. I mean,
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: you get your own bed. Like, unlimited personal space. Your
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: schedule is completely yours. You can go wherever, whenever you want.
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: And you don't have to send a, hey, babe, just
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: so you know text.
• 1:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, why it's great to be single. And there's a
• 1:21
  Speaker 2: difference between being single, being alone, and being lonely. Like
• 1:25
  Speaker 2: if you watch Ted Lasso right now, it's season five,
• 1:28
  Speaker 2: he's single and they're trying to get him to date,
• 1:31
  Speaker 2: but he doesn't seem to be lonely. Like he seems
• 1:33
  Speaker 2: to be fine being single. And I think that's a
• 1:35
  Speaker 2: big thing. Like, like I could be, if something, God
• 1:38
  Speaker 2: forbid happened to my wife, Blake being single, I could
• 1:41
  Speaker 2: totally handle it. I think it's great. I think it's fantastic.
• 1:45
  Speaker 3: Stop sounding a little too excited about it.
• 1:47
  Speaker 4: John Jay.
• 1:48
  Speaker 2: Let's just say, for.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: Example, someone cut her brakes. You could be single, but
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: you need a lot of people to take care of
• 1:56
  Speaker 3: stuff that Blake does. Like, you would need, like, the
• 1:59
  Speaker 3: laundry person, you get the mail person.
• 2:02
  Speaker 2: Before I was married, my mom did it for me,
• 2:05
  Speaker 2: and then I would go to fluff and fold. As
• 2:07
  Speaker 2: a single person, who would pay your bills? I'd probably
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: find somebody to do that. You think there's a lot
• 2:15
  Speaker 2: going on in your house now. Wait till you're single. Right.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: But anyway, is there more things on that list? Because
• 2:19
  Speaker 2: people are calling in right now.
• 2:20
  Speaker 1: Yeah, it kind of wraps up with the deeper part
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: of being single because being single can actually force you
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: to figure out who you are when you're not factoring
• 2:28
  Speaker 1: another person into every single decision. Sometimes those single years
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: are the years that you fact yourself.
• 2:33
  Speaker 2: Okay, let's see. Megan, why is it great to be single?
• 2:37
  Speaker 4: All right, so... One person can't be everything, right? Like,
• 2:43
  Speaker 4: I've got one guy who is, like, really good with
• 2:46
  Speaker 4: emotional support, another guy who's, like, good with dirty talk,
• 2:51
  Speaker 4: another one who is, like, really cute and.
• 2:54
  Speaker 5: Cuddly and we watch movies. Like, no one person can
• 2:59
  Speaker 5: satisfy everything.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: Oh, okay. That's interesting.
• 3:02
  Speaker 1: You get to play the game a little bit when
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: you're single.
• 3:04
  Speaker 2: That's interesting. Okay, Megan, thank you very much. Thank you. Raquel,
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: why is it great to be single?
• 3:10
  Speaker 4: You know, it's kind of like I feel like it's
• 3:13
  Speaker 4: like scrolling on Zillow. You know what I mean? Like
• 3:16
  Speaker 4: I'm I'm not going to buy the house, but I
• 3:18
  Speaker 4: want to like I'm zooming in on the baseboards and
• 3:20
  Speaker 4: the crown molding. I want to see what everything looks like.
• 3:23
  Speaker 4: And like I want to know the square footage before I,
• 3:26
  Speaker 4: you know, maybe put in an application or like. You know,
• 3:31
  Speaker 4: is it walkable?
• 3:32
  Speaker 5: Like, what's the landscaping like?
• 3:34
  Speaker 4: Is the neighbor's house maybe nicer than this house?
• 3:37
  Speaker 3: You're never going to buy a house and you're never
• 3:40
  Speaker 3: going to get a boyfriend. Those two things are true.
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: Just always shopping. But those are all the things you
• 3:44
  Speaker 2: do when you are single, it sounds like, to find somebody.
• 3:48
  Speaker 4: Yeah, I love to shop. I love the shopping.
• 3:50
  Speaker 3: Of it all.
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: Thanks, Raquel. Hey, Brooke, why is it great to be single?

• 5:44
  Speaker 5: but I work in a spa. I'm an esthetician. I've
• 5:46
  Speaker 5: been doing it for over a decade. And there's a
• 5:49
  Speaker 5: guy who is very interested in me. He seems, but
• 5:51
  Speaker 5: it's been a lengthy process. We've been like kind of
• 5:53
  Speaker 5: just friends for the last year and a half. I've
• 5:55
  Speaker 5: been trying to get through the divorce last year and
• 5:57
  Speaker 5: a half. And he's coming in to get a facial
• 6:00
  Speaker 5: from me. He's very cute. He's I mean, he seems,
• 6:06
  Speaker 5: I don't know what the deal is. It's just taking
• 6:07
  Speaker 5: forever for anything to develop.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: With this guy.
• 6:09
  Speaker 5: But he tips me fast. He has money, clearly.
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: So you're going to be all like popping his pimples
• 6:15
  Speaker 2: and stuff, getting really intimate in his face.
• 6:17
  Speaker 5: He has, well, I wish I could do more than that,
• 6:19
  Speaker 5: but I got to be professional at work.
• 6:20
  Speaker 3: Hello. Hello.
• 6:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, literally.
• 6:27
  Speaker 5: I'm like, dude, the walls are paper thin.
• 6:30
  Speaker 1: Like, no.
• 6:30
  Speaker 5: And there's a button on the bed that if there's
• 6:33
  Speaker 5: an emergency, what if we accidentally press it?
• 6:35
  Speaker 3: You really thought this through.
• 6:38
  Speaker 5: Dude, it's like a fantasy I have that I will
• 6:40
  Speaker 5: never act on because as much as I joke, I
• 6:43
  Speaker 5: am extremely professional.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: I don't really care what they think or say.
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: It's true.
