1
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:25,160
Hey everybody, this is Mel, this
is Claire.

2
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,320
We are the salty hoes, and we
are back for a little mini bonus

3
00:00:29,320 --> 00:00:32,479
episode.
This is one of our salty bites.

4
00:00:32,479 --> 00:00:34,240
Is that what we're calling them?
Oh yeah, I like.

5
00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:36,600
It salty.
Bites, salty bites, salty bites.

6
00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,200
So we may not do these every
week, but we thought just to

7
00:00:39,200 --> 00:00:42,480
tide you over from week to week,
maybe if you wanted a little

8
00:00:42,760 --> 00:00:45,880
midweek pick me up, a little
extra little bonus.

9
00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:48,360
You just can't get enough of us
that we might.

10
00:00:48,960 --> 00:00:51,200
Not every week necessarily.
We're not promising anything.

11
00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,000
We're not making any strong
promises because life is.

12
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,240
Busy, it is busy, but we might
drop these little mini episodes.

13
00:00:57,240 --> 00:01:00,760
We're thinking 1015 minutes,
maybe some stories from the

14
00:01:00,760 --> 00:01:04,480
Hive, some dating profile
reviews, etcetera.

15
00:01:04,840 --> 00:01:06,280
So that's what we're going to do
today.

16
00:01:06,280 --> 00:01:10,360
And Claire, what do you have for
me from the dating apps?

17
00:01:10,960 --> 00:01:15,360
Yeah, I mean, I just feel at
this point sometimes like, am I

18
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:18,400
even looking for somebody or am
I just taking screenshots to

19
00:01:18,400 --> 00:01:21,000
send to you so that we can have
a wee giggle?

20
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:25,160
But I notice, I'm sure anybody
listening who's on the apps

21
00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,280
notices there.
There's definitely like an

22
00:01:28,320 --> 00:01:31,840
uptick in like catfish profiles,
I feel like.

23
00:01:32,240 --> 00:01:33,880
Do you see?
That I do see that.

24
00:01:33,960 --> 00:01:36,200
Because you're like, oh, you're
unbelievably hot.

25
00:01:36,200 --> 00:01:37,560
Clearly, you're not.
Real.

26
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:40,760
And the photos look really
staged, right?

27
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,080
The light they're they're
professional photos.

28
00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,560
They're yeah, and so they're
like taken from a catalog or AI

29
00:01:46,560 --> 00:01:48,680
or like something, but they're
not real.

30
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:52,800
So I noticed, you know, when you
read those, what do you call

31
00:01:52,800 --> 00:01:55,840
like the prompts, the prompts,
the Wii prompts that sometimes

32
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:59,720
they give us this this was unbum
Bell, bum bell.

33
00:01:59,840 --> 00:02:03,880
Bum bell makes it fancy.
I know I'm I'm on bum bell

34
00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:09,520
personally, but the question is
to be prompt, a pro and a con of

35
00:02:09,520 --> 00:02:13,880
dating me.
The answer is I'm going back.

36
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,520
So yeah.
I mean, you're just like clearly

37
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,920
you're a real human.
And this other person said I'm

38
00:02:22,920 --> 00:02:26,840
happiest when that was their
prompt and their response was

39
00:02:26,920 --> 00:02:30,240
delicacy.
Oh wow, OK sounds like a strong

40
00:02:30,240 --> 00:02:32,920
command of the English language.
Definitely from here in Utah.

41
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:37,800
And just, you know, not a bot
or, I don't know, like how do

42
00:02:37,800 --> 00:02:40,240
they do it?
I don't, I, I just don't know if

43
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:46,080
it's a, a eye situation or I,
yeah, I have no idea.

44
00:02:46,080 --> 00:02:49,640
But they're, they're just, you
know, very, very interesting.

45
00:02:49,880 --> 00:02:52,200
I did find a guy, you know, like
you'll find these ones and

46
00:02:52,200 --> 00:02:53,720
you're like, clearly you're
married.

47
00:02:54,160 --> 00:02:57,560
Oh, definitely.
Yeah, the heads chopped off or

48
00:02:57,880 --> 00:03:02,240
they they're just wearing like
not just like a a mask for

49
00:03:02,360 --> 00:03:06,320
disease style mask, but like.
The ones I really like are the

50
00:03:06,320 --> 00:03:08,640
ones that just say straight out
I'm married right?

51
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:12,880
That at least you're honest,
right Points for honesty, yes.

52
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:16,000
But the ones that I find
particularly hilarious are the

53
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:18,000
ones that, like you said, don't
have a headshot.

54
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:20,760
Maybe it's a body shot or a
picture of scenery.

55
00:03:21,320 --> 00:03:24,720
Got the scenery.
Scenery and then in the bio it

56
00:03:24,720 --> 00:03:28,880
says need something just scrape
because of my job.

57
00:03:29,760 --> 00:03:33,560
My God, you're like, is it
because of your your job?

58
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,840
Is that really why my?
God.

59
00:03:37,600 --> 00:03:39,400
You're like, yeah, I don't think
that's the source of your

60
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:42,360
discretion, brother, but but.
Okay, go on.

61
00:03:42,400 --> 00:03:45,720
My God yeah, this guy is
headless.

62
00:03:46,120 --> 00:03:48,600
He has great arms.
Maybe he's hot, but I don't

63
00:03:48,600 --> 00:03:50,480
think I'd ever swipe based on
arms.

64
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:53,720
Also would absolutely never
swipe on somebody I suspected

65
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:59,080
was in a relationship 101.
Oh my God, your standards are so

66
00:03:59,080 --> 00:03:59,720
high.
Claire, hi.

67
00:03:59,720 --> 00:04:01,960
I'm such a good person.
You're so picky.

68
00:04:01,960 --> 00:04:04,120
I sainthood.
The new Pope is going to call me

69
00:04:04,120 --> 00:04:06,960
up and give me a wee prize soon.
Yes.

70
00:04:06,960 --> 00:04:09,960
That's just, you know, that's
how we roll.

71
00:04:10,320 --> 00:04:13,480
His bio is interesting though,
and that's, it's actually why I

72
00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:16,320
screenshotted it.
It said sometimes I dress like a

73
00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:20,680
dog and make action paintings
and sing rock'n'roll.

74
00:04:20,800 --> 00:04:22,040
What?
Yeah, I don't.

75
00:04:22,320 --> 00:04:26,040
Like all at the same time.
I don't what I.

76
00:04:26,120 --> 00:04:27,360
Dress like a.
Dog.

77
00:04:27,440 --> 00:04:30,720
Yeah, is action paintings like
when you cover yourself and

78
00:04:30,720 --> 00:04:33,000
paint you roll on a canvas or
something?

79
00:04:33,200 --> 00:04:34,600
I have no idea.
Yeah.

80
00:04:34,600 --> 00:04:36,640
If anybody knows, let us know.
Is this a?

81
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:39,720
Kink that I'm unaware.
Of see this is what I worry

82
00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:43,320
because we do know that I have
an naivety streak and I'm like

83
00:04:43,320 --> 00:04:47,320
should is this a position?
Is this like a a thread or

84
00:04:47,320 --> 00:04:49,480
strand of polyamory?
Like what?

85
00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:51,920
I well, I don't know.
This is so strange.

86
00:04:51,920 --> 00:04:54,600
I mean, if he'd said doggy style
we would understand that.

87
00:04:54,600 --> 00:04:58,120
But dress like a dog, yes.
And make action paintings.

88
00:04:58,560 --> 00:05:00,480
And sing and sing and.
Roll.

89
00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:04,400
So yeah, I don't know if it's
all at the one time or.

90
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:07,960
All right, if anyone can
identify this kink or mental

91
00:05:07,960 --> 00:05:10,440
illness please.
Let us know in the comments.

92
00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,080
Yeah, either way, give us a
whirl.

93
00:05:14,120 --> 00:05:16,560
What did you find any good
people this week?

94
00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,240
I yeah, I've got a couple for
you.

95
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,280
So we're going to start and I'm
changing the names once again.

96
00:05:21,360 --> 00:05:24,240
Of course, once again, we're not
trying to name and shame, we're

97
00:05:24,240 --> 00:05:26,200
just trying to shame
anonymously, Yes.

98
00:05:26,200 --> 00:05:28,120
We're classy hoes.
Exactly.

99
00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,000
Classy, salty, classy.
Salty hoes.

100
00:05:30,000 --> 00:05:32,120
All right, so we're going to
start with a man I'm going to

101
00:05:32,120 --> 00:05:35,320
call Bobby.
Bobby is 50. 40 Bobby.

102
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:38,600
He is a screenwriter.
He graduated from Duke.

103
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:40,720
So wow.
Credentials.

104
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:42,400
Yeah.
He's got a graduate degree.

105
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:43,880
Nice.
In his bio.

106
00:05:43,880 --> 00:05:47,200
Let me just read it to you point
by point because this is most of

107
00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:50,120
these are not so bad, but I
think you're going to find out

108
00:05:50,120 --> 00:05:52,400
when we get to the the red flag
here, OK?

109
00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:56,840
All right, so first, I may have
lost some hair, OK. 54 I mean,

110
00:05:56,840 --> 00:06:00,040
we have to be realistic.
Yeah, a little weird.

111
00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:03,880
Sports coach and art lover.
Raiders fan who meditates with

112
00:06:03,880 --> 00:06:06,320
monks.
Nice guy who kills all the

113
00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,200
spiders.
I'm always suspicious of a

114
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,120
self-proclaimed nice guy, but
carry on.

115
00:06:11,160 --> 00:06:13,560
I am as well, and I actually
don't like killing spiders.

116
00:06:13,560 --> 00:06:15,320
I'd rather.
Try to put them outside.

117
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:17,040
Or just leave them in the house.
You don't.

118
00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:21,240
Have to.
Kill Uggs once run over by a

119
00:06:21,240 --> 00:06:24,200
ballet dancer.
Oh, I don't know what.

120
00:06:24,200 --> 00:06:26,920
That means, again, is that
something that we just, are we

121
00:06:26,920 --> 00:06:28,400
naive?
I don't know.

122
00:06:28,440 --> 00:06:30,960
It just sounds like an anecdote
that he wants to share, so

123
00:06:30,960 --> 00:06:32,160
whatever, I'm going to give him
that.

124
00:06:32,160 --> 00:06:35,280
It's weird, but.
He's left you a nugget for a

125
00:06:35,280 --> 00:06:35,960
first.
Date.

126
00:06:36,360 --> 00:06:37,880
And then here's the next bullet
point.

127
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,720
My daughter's number one fan,
even if they have blocked me on

128
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:46,080
social media.
Oh, what did you do, kind Sir,

129
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:49,640
to be blocked by your child?
And why are you admitting that?

130
00:06:49,640 --> 00:06:51,240
Children.
Multiple children.

131
00:06:51,280 --> 00:06:52,760
Daughters are plural.
Oh, it's.

132
00:06:52,760 --> 00:06:53,640
Plural.
I miss.

133
00:06:53,800 --> 00:06:57,080
That well, it might be a
misplaced apostrophe.

134
00:06:57,080 --> 00:06:59,800
We can't overlook that.
But he did graduate from Duke,

135
00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:02,480
so he probably knows where to
put an apostrophe.

136
00:07:02,760 --> 00:07:04,160
But you don't.
You don't know.

137
00:07:04,320 --> 00:07:06,360
The rest of this is
grammatically correct, so I'm

138
00:07:06,360 --> 00:07:09,560
going to assume there are.
Multiple daughters, children's.

139
00:07:09,800 --> 00:07:11,120
Yeah, wow.
Oh, no.

140
00:07:11,160 --> 00:07:12,840
And he says they they blocked
me.

141
00:07:12,840 --> 00:07:16,040
So it is multiple daughters.
At least two have blocked him on

142
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,920
social media.
I mean transparency with the red

143
00:07:18,920 --> 00:07:21,760
flags I guess.
So put that right out there.

144
00:07:21,800 --> 00:07:25,280
Very decent of him, so wow,
okay.

145
00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:27,040
No explanation of why they might
have done that.

146
00:07:27,040 --> 00:07:28,360
Maybe you're supposed to swipe
and ask?

147
00:07:28,680 --> 00:07:31,480
Yeah, again, maybe he's just
like little conversation

148
00:07:31,480 --> 00:07:34,880
starters, which I respect
because, you know.

149
00:07:35,120 --> 00:07:37,440
Yeah, it is better than nothing
to work with.

150
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:41,440
Silent, no questions, all of
that good stuff that we

151
00:07:41,440 --> 00:07:43,080
experienced.
So did you go right or?

152
00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:44,840
Left I went.
Left you, did I?

153
00:07:44,880 --> 00:07:46,840
Did.
Yeah, I did not want to get.

154
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,680
I don't know.
That that swung it for you.

155
00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:51,840
Well, I was curious, but not
curious enough to swipe.

156
00:07:52,040 --> 00:07:53,920
That's fair.
Yeah, that's fair.

157
00:07:54,160 --> 00:07:56,560
All right, I've got one more for
you here, Claire.

158
00:07:57,040 --> 00:08:00,880
And this person we are going to
call Scott.

159
00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,240
Scott is 42.
OK, Oh, young.

160
00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:07,240
Perky.
Yeah, nothing wrong with that.

161
00:08:07,240 --> 00:08:10,520
I love it.
Scott has mostly a normal

162
00:08:10,520 --> 00:08:12,800
profile.
He's got a short bio.

163
00:08:12,920 --> 00:08:16,680
He's got a number of normal
pictures, a pretty average

164
00:08:16,680 --> 00:08:20,520
looking guy, nothing too weird
until you Scroll down to picture

165
00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:25,680
#4, which is a picture of
himself.

166
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,240
It's a mirror selfie in the
bathroom.

167
00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:29,160
Frequent.
Frequent occurrence.

168
00:08:29,160 --> 00:08:32,919
Yep, he is wearing a Princeton
University T-shirt.

169
00:08:32,919 --> 00:08:36,240
Fancy.
White athletic shorts.

170
00:08:36,240 --> 00:08:39,200
Nice.
And what is clearly a diaper

171
00:08:39,400 --> 00:08:43,000
underneath these shorts?
And it's not Halloween.

172
00:08:43,640 --> 00:08:46,600
No, it's under.
He's wearing a diaper.

173
00:08:46,960 --> 00:08:49,560
OK.
I mean transparent.

174
00:08:49,560 --> 00:08:52,160
Does he mention it anywhere?
Right, but that's the thing.

175
00:08:52,160 --> 00:08:55,520
No mention of the diaper.
He's very clearly a diaper.

176
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:59,600
Yeah, I, I actually zoomed in,
which I don't love myself for.

177
00:09:01,440 --> 00:09:04,080
Not my finest moment because I
was like, is that a diaper?

178
00:09:04,280 --> 00:09:06,680
Yes, it's a diaper.
It's definitely a diaper.

179
00:09:06,760 --> 00:09:09,200
Wow.
And it's got like little, I

180
00:09:09,200 --> 00:09:10,680
don't know, some kind of design
on it.

181
00:09:10,680 --> 00:09:13,640
I can't tell through.
The like pictures so.

182
00:09:14,040 --> 00:09:15,720
There's two possibilities here,
Claire.

183
00:09:16,080 --> 00:09:19,160
Number one is the man has a
medical issue which makes him

184
00:09:19,200 --> 00:09:20,760
incontinent.
Yes, that is.

185
00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:24,680
Possible and full like care and
appreciation for that.

186
00:09:24,680 --> 00:09:27,760
Certainly right there could be a
very legitimate reason, but I

187
00:09:27,800 --> 00:09:31,360
suspect it is actually the
second possibility, which is

188
00:09:31,360 --> 00:09:33,640
that this is an adult baby
fetish.

189
00:09:34,160 --> 00:09:36,880
Oh yeah.
OK, I.

190
00:09:36,880 --> 00:09:40,480
Had only considered point #1 and
I was like, well, that's very

191
00:09:40,480 --> 00:09:43,920
bold to include it in your
dating profile, but the.

192
00:09:44,000 --> 00:09:46,760
Reason I think that it is
possibility number 2 is because,

193
00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:49,360
like I said, I did zoom in Yeah,
and it looks like there are

194
00:09:49,360 --> 00:09:52,440
little decorations on the diaper
similar to what you would find

195
00:09:52,440 --> 00:09:54,840
on an infant diaper, right?
Like little pictures.

196
00:09:54,920 --> 00:09:56,480
You know what I mean?
Like teddy bears or?

197
00:09:56,480 --> 00:09:59,200
Blocks or because you don't get
that on an adult diaper.

198
00:09:59,200 --> 00:10:01,960
Don't have that, no.
Did I say diaper?

199
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:03,400
What word came out of my my
Thor?

200
00:10:03,400 --> 00:10:08,160
I don't know but but right.
But it's not addressed.

201
00:10:08,240 --> 00:10:11,760
So here's the thing.
If you have, you know an A

202
00:10:11,760 --> 00:10:15,640
specific kink or a fetish, as
long as it's not hurting anyone,

203
00:10:15,640 --> 00:10:17,600
nothing wrong with that.
But more.

204
00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:18,600
Hard to.
You sure?

205
00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:20,560
Why would you not explain that?
Right.

206
00:10:20,680 --> 00:10:22,400
Why?
Just show a picture of yourself

207
00:10:22,440 --> 00:10:27,320
grinning in the mirror wearing a
diaper and not explain it.

208
00:10:28,080 --> 00:10:29,600
It does.
It would.

209
00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,280
It would warrant some
clarification or maybe keep it

210
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,560
to the second or third date.
Sure, I mean I do appreciate the

211
00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,280
heads up before you've gone on
multi updates.

212
00:10:40,440 --> 00:10:43,920
Cuz you don't wanna, you know,
but I mean heading back to their

213
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:46,280
place and then surprise diaper
alert.

214
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:51,560
Yeah, I mean, I do appreciate
when people are upfront with

215
00:10:51,560 --> 00:10:54,320
things that could be deal
Breakers, Yeah, for a large

216
00:10:54,320 --> 00:10:56,680
number of people.
But I feel like we didn't get

217
00:10:56,680 --> 00:10:59,200
all the way there with this.
It's just a picture in a diaper

218
00:10:59,200 --> 00:11:02,720
with no explanation.
Yes, so maybe he's even if he

219
00:11:02,720 --> 00:11:05,400
had done like the we if you
know, you know.

220
00:11:05,480 --> 00:11:09,280
Sure, something.
But yeah, it's an interesting

221
00:11:09,280 --> 00:11:11,400
choice.
There's only a limited number of

222
00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:13,240
photos.
It's an interesting one to.

223
00:11:13,240 --> 00:11:14,840
Choose absolutely.
Huh.

224
00:11:15,240 --> 00:11:19,120
Well, I also wonder if he might
have better luck on one of the

225
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:21,240
fetish dating apps rather than
Bumble.

226
00:11:21,240 --> 00:11:22,160
This is true.
Because.

227
00:11:22,400 --> 00:11:26,080
There are a couple of those.
Yeah, and bumbles like mild, I

228
00:11:26,120 --> 00:11:30,760
feel like it's like the mild
like most normal app.

229
00:11:30,800 --> 00:11:32,160
Right.
It's not even Tinder.

230
00:11:32,200 --> 00:11:34,720
Yeah.
Yeah, it's like pretty mild.

231
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:36,680
So yeah, he's on the wrong
platform.

232
00:11:36,680 --> 00:11:38,080
Maybe just.
I think so too.

233
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:41,320
Yeah, well, more power to him.
It's an interesting choice,

234
00:11:42,000 --> 00:11:43,480
Super.
I hope you find what you're

235
00:11:43,480 --> 00:11:45,880
looking for.
I just think that this approach

236
00:11:45,880 --> 00:11:47,640
is maybe not going to get you
there.

237
00:11:48,080 --> 00:11:51,680
So I assume that was a left of
these swipe left.

238
00:11:52,560 --> 00:11:56,000
Yes.
So sadly, Mel and I have no

239
00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,560
dates this weekend.
But you know that's OK because.

240
00:11:59,640 --> 00:12:00,800
At least we've had a.
Good laugh.

241
00:12:00,800 --> 00:12:04,040
We've had a good laugh.
We find a man in a diaper and

242
00:12:04,440 --> 00:12:08,920
some catfish people and.
You never know what you're going

243
00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:09,760
to get.
You don't.

244
00:12:09,840 --> 00:12:13,600
What a lovely bag of treats.
It's a great time to be single.

245
00:12:13,720 --> 00:12:15,600
I love it.
Absolutely the.

246
00:12:15,600 --> 00:12:18,480
