00:00:00has dating changed since you've stopped drinking yeah it sucks now
00:00:03yeah why is it the women got uglier for you yeah who's this what's her name uh yeah that is way
00:00:13harder because like drinking was is the easiest thing you want to get drinks hey you want to go
00:00:17like it's just the way and now like you don't go to a coffee shop and both get nervous in front of
00:00:21each other exactly that's what it feels like like i literally i've been hanging out with this this
00:00:25woman who i really like and she's like i literally texted her because it was just not going well
00:00:30in the text you know she's she's a girl i know from comedy and and i was like hey i think you're
00:00:36really attractive and you're nice to me like would you like to go out like i just had to eventually
00:00:41like just be doing the same yeah because i couldn't just be like we're getting drinks after comedy and
00:00:45then we would have like flirted there and then that would have went whatever way it would have went it's
00:00:49like love on the spectrum right away i'd like to see you it feels exactly like that yeah and then we
00:00:54watch anime and drink down and do for dinner you're saying sober dating is like love on the spectrum
00:00:58it is okay hard it's not going well what do you think would happen if the love on the spectrum was
00:01:03done with booze then would that just turn normal what do you mean like if you're saying you got them
00:01:08drunk yeah yeah i think they can drink can't they they can they can oh yeah yeah they can order
00:01:15drinks that would be yes you know we just if it's not spicy enough already we can just like throw
00:01:20a little bit of booze just turns into love island get his admiral dealer through yeah yeah spike in
00:01:24the drinks they go we didn't even know it was gonna yeah it would devolve i think yeah i think
00:01:29that's like that's like a very heartwarming pure show i don't like it i talk trash about it all the
00:01:33time why oh multiple reasons you know what's the number one complaint well they don't pay them first
00:01:38of all two everyone's watching it like we're watching children dating they go isn't it cute it's very
00:01:42condescending to look at grown-ups and be like oh they're dating like we do and like i hope i wish
00:01:47for the best it's very oh my my biggest problem with it is it's called love on the spectrum but they
00:01:52don't respect the spectrum they'll pick some guy who's super high functioning and pair him with some
00:01:57girl who's super not high functioning and be like maybe this is a match and then they're on the date and
00:02:02he's like i think you're great i think you're wonderful and i think you're awesome and i think you're
00:02:04pretty what about me and then she's like oh handsome you're like that's not a perfect that's perfect
00:02:10no it's not perfect but my point is like i don't like it i think everything everything they're doing
00:02:17is like too exploitive i don't i don't think it's good i was so ready to push back i thought it was
00:02:21going to be a really judgmental take from you and it's like it's really convincing yeah well it's
00:02:25actually kind of convincing it's so we're seducing them with celebrity now now they like think they're
00:02:30famous the one famous couple already broke up she's on like everything now it's just it's too much yeah
00:02:35that's fair although it's so sweet though like you're seeing them they're with their parents and like
00:02:39they're like this never would have happened i don't know i watched that he's doing the exact
00:02:43same thing you just said that's what i'm saying but it's so important do they live in the dream dude
00:02:49they're already fine leave them alone they don't need a wife they're frustrated they're so frustrated
00:02:55what uh oh here's another a part of it that that is is like they have a diagnosis right that that they
00:03:02don't like bright lights and loud noises the the the high pressure situations make them buzz and then
00:03:07we're like how about uh how about we put a 10 camera shoot on netflix how about we keep interrupting
00:03:13them every five minutes on a first date you're like leave them alone if you want them to date that's
00:03:17fine but maybe don't exploit them on a television show you're not paying them it's crazy yeah no
00:03:22money james has that james you know james right uh which one is the guy who goes sword guy renaissance
00:03:27fair i like that guy he's got liquid he's got i've seen every episode and i'm rooting for them as
00:03:31humans i'm saying that when you watch the show it feels a little icky but what about you got to push
00:03:34past that he's doing great he's got he's got he's got liquid death sponsorship
00:03:42that is the most human answer i've ever heard what a great moment he's got a liquid that push back
00:03:48past that listen he's got swords liquid death he's got a liquid death sponsorship i i tried
00:03:54watched try and started watching an episode and i kind of i didn't you articulated what i kind of felt
00:03:59when i was watching i was like this is just i didn't feel good about myself watching i watched like
00:04:03five minutes i'm like okay this is enough of this if you've ever saw a 40 year old date another third
00:04:07like 45 year old or whatever and you go isn't it cute it's like don't talk to them like that
00:04:12they're not retarded these are these are these are grown-ups with autism like treat them like adults
00:04:16i'll be honest you would never go to someone's table and go are you two having a good time this is
00:04:22i really support this you're like get the hell out of here like it's it's it's mean they're they're
00:04:26adults yeah i watch it and i laugh the entire time yeah and then i cry they get me every time i like
00:04:32their directness but that's just autism that has nothing to do with it it's so funny yeah i also
00:04:36think that's what's going on inside of every single person dating it just doesn't come out the same way
00:04:41yeah oh the same thing the people in love on us on the spectrum don't have the filter that everybody
00:04:46else exactly yeah and i like that point but i like that about autism i don't need them to be on a
00:04:50dating show to appreciate that about what would be great would be a love on the spectrum love island
00:04:55crossover episode that's what i'm saying yeah like 50 50 to just throw a couple of grenades
00:05:01would this be on epstein's island or what dude this sounds really crazy try to figure it out you know
00:05:08it's like trader or whatever and it's like trying to work out which but you don't know love on the
00:05:12spectrum yeah and you're trying to work out to be fair has got which once you got people who are that
00:05:20hot you throw some autism in there it's not you know mentally you're in like thin you're in thin air
00:05:27i gotta push past it liquid death sponsorships just waiting on the other
00:05:32hot chicks being like you're like really funny yeah you know a lot about weapons
00:05:42never knew that about medieval times
00:05:46well i just think also i mean it's just i think that we've got this
00:05:49idea of like rom-coms and then that's what a relationship is which i don't believe in
00:05:54and so like to push that on autistic people on the show because they're looking for some sort of like
00:05:59notebook like thing i just i just feels like very fraudulent yeah how do you view relationships you
00:06:05are you no romance or like how do you how do you think about romanticism basically
00:06:09uh i don't even know how to answer that i don't know like everyone else i'd like to find a partner i
00:06:14think it's good i think it's healthy yeah but you're both married with kids what advice have you got for
00:06:19women how old are you 43 should have probably figured it out by now well behind the power curve
00:06:26as they say one of those late bloomers do you uh where do you find you know where are you dating
00:06:33where you where you find your girls like apparently you found one from the comedy scene yeah i mean
00:06:38uh and you sent her weird autistic messages already you're saying
00:06:43i like i like the way he summarizes my life like where jeff gets arrested for going to kids things
00:06:50it's so direct there's no fat on it when he talks about my life
00:06:57what you met a girl in comedy when you sent her autistic text messages is that where you're getting
00:07:01them jeff military precision use your power exactly would you find some weakling that you could
00:07:09pick from the pack um so you know i usually just meet women on instagram from like after comedy shows and things
00:07:16things that is a thing apparently though what the girls after the shows yeah or that you meet them at
00:07:21the like after because now you know that they're interested in you because they saw kind of what
00:07:25you're about up there they listen to you talk for 70 minutes and they go you know they're interested
00:07:30um and then you can kind of figure it out from there and usually the comics go somewhere after the
00:07:34clubs and all that stuff it's not i wouldn't recommend it it hasn't worked out for me as far as
00:07:38anything i've had some some i also think you don't get things you don't believe in and i've been
00:07:43somewhat skeptical of relationships and romance in general so um so maybe how does the skepticism of
00:07:49romance and relationship show um what do you mean i don't know what that means like you think that
00:07:57they're a psyop like that jocko's not actually married or that matt's like no no no no i think
00:08:01it's fantastic i think that if you um love someone enough you got to kind of like compromise a lot of
00:08:09stuff that's what being a man is you kind of compromise things you say hey i can't go have
00:08:14fun and be drunk guy and i can't be going doing this and if i'm going to be on the road i need to
00:08:18kind of think about how long i'm going to be on the road whereas i'm making all the decisions for my
00:08:22career so i can have more money and more friend time and things like that i've made a lot of selfish
00:08:26decisions that wouldn't it's like why i don't have a dog i love dogs i can't think of anything i like
00:08:30more but if i was to have a dog right now i'd be a very selfish dog owner just letting him be at my
00:08:34house while i'm gone forever and so the same thing is just kind of true with relationships i would love
00:08:39to be with a partner who's awesome who i love and i really believe in it you want a creator it's just
00:08:44right now well it's just right now it's like i don't know how i'd be a good boyfriend and i'll figure
00:08:49it out and i'll make sacrifices but i haven't found anybody worth making that sacrifice for that's all
