Have you ever considered the strange and lucrative world of foot photo sales, or questioned when exactly 'coolness' comes with an expiration date? Buckle up for a wild ride as we wrap up the Battle of the Sexes and dive into the bizarre buzz around selling foot pics online.
This week's episode is bursting with tips and anecdotes to spark not just your interest, but maybe even a second date. We sashay through ten unique first date ideas, from the adventure of tasting new cuisines to the competitive spirit at the bowling alley, and break down what could make or break the connection.
Welcome to Eden and Amadeus, the podcast. We've got a couple of cool things to run by you on today's show and, of course, we've got our weekly recap of our Battle of the Sexes, which, by the way, I thought we had some good battles this week.
Speaker 2:Yeah, the Battle of the Sexes was strong this week because the I don't want to give anything away, but it felt like it was very dominated by whoever the victor was each day. It was never neck and neck or super tight. It was fun to hear You're going to like it. You're going to like it a lot.
Speaker 1:So there's this ongoing thing that we've been talking about probably for years now, and that is the fascination with people buying pictures or just looking at pictures of feet, and I feel like this is something that Eden would have a great side gig doing, because it all started when you posted a picture of some socks that you have that are toe socks.
Speaker 2:Yeah, I wear toe socks a lot because I'm a runner and it's a good thing for keeping me from getting blisters and to keep my feet nice and flat.
Speaker 1:And so when you did that, you had a lot of like, a lot of response, right.
Speaker 2:I got offers.
Speaker 1:That's called engagement.
Speaker 2:I got engagement. I know I got people sliding into my DMs.
Speaker 1:So here's the thing I don't see any harm with selling pictures of your feet or showing pictures of your feet. I know that there's that OnlyFans out there, where people have niche things that they do like on video or show pictures of or whatever, and they make a ton of money. Well Feet.
Speaker 2:Finder is the new big thing now for that, because that's where people are really flocking to to sell their pictures. I'm not trying to promote Feet Finder.
Speaker 1:Yeah, we are not getting paid for this.
Speaker 2:There is a nail salon, though, in Toronto, called Fix Nail Bar, and they are giving a 20% discount on pedicures to any customer that will allow them to sell pictures of their feet online. The campaign is called the Foot your Bill campaign so smart and if you allow them to upload your feet photos on feet finders, they will give you that extra savings. Now should you skip the middleman and do it yourself.
Speaker 2:Because there are some people that say, especially if you have what they call very square or Roman feet, that can earn $45,000 selling these photos. But the salon says they can do it in a way that's anonymous and you can just take advantage of that discount.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you can't do it yourself anonymously, I think there's got to be a way.
Speaker 2:I feel sure you could.
Speaker 1:And also what the hell are square or Roman feet.
Speaker 2:People who are into feet have very specific things that they like. In fact, I saw a video earlier this week where this lady is writing a man's name with her feet. The pen has a big fluffy pom-pom on it, which I guess adds to the appeal, and she's got the pen between her toes and she's writing the name Will and the caption says need some extra cash? Just write men's name using your feet and sell it for $300 like I do $300 per name.
Speaker 1:Evidently why are you not doing this?
Speaker 2:Because I have feet that look like a man's feet, put on those toe socks and start writing.
Speaker 1:Let me tell you something.
Speaker 2:Do you think somebody would?
Speaker 1:buy. If I could do this. I'm telling you if I could do this. I'm telling you, If I could do this, I would do this.
Speaker 2:Do you think I should try this On feetfindercom? You're asking me.
Speaker 1:I've been telling you for years yes, yes, yes, yes, do it, just try it, see what happens.
Speaker 2:I don't know if I could Look myself in the mirror, could?
Speaker 1:you look yourself In the bank, I mean, and be like here's my deposit for $3,000 for the 10 names I just wrote, if all of a sudden I start living large and taking like global trips.
Speaker 2:you'll know I'm kidding because I'm getting ready to take a big trip and I want everybody to think it's because I sold feet pictures.
Speaker 1:If that happens, I'm going straight to Feet Finder and looking for pictures with toe socks. I'll be like that's eating, making that cash baby.
Speaker 2:I'll look and see if I can do it socked.
Speaker 1:Yeah, do it.
Speaker 2:All right, what else do we have on our list?
Speaker 1:Another thing we talked about is now. After a survey of 2,000 people, we've determined that the new age that you stop being cool is 39, which I don't think is accurate for me and you.
Speaker 2:Okay.
Speaker 1:Because what they based it on was your knowledge of pop culture, music and slang, I think because of our jobs. We stayed pretty on top of that for as long as we could. I got to a point shortly after 39 where I was like I just don't care anymore about that stuff. Like I would love to be like. I know there's a network, bravo that my best friend watches and he loves all the is that where the All the Real Housewives? Is that the Housewives friend watches?
Speaker 2:and he loves all the real housewives.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah and the and the and the boat, the under the boat or something. Um, below deck, yeah, below deck, like he watches all those shows. And then there's the andy cohen show. That recaps all the shows. Watch what happens live like he is, like I think he is cooler than me because he knows all that stuff I don't know anything about and I don't care yeah, I don't know if that's what makes you cool or not and if that's what this survey is based on.
Speaker 2:We might have some loopholes where we snuck through, but as somebody who has raised teenagers who have rolled their eyes at me and let me know that when I do drop any slang I'm about three years behind I would say that that sounds accurate, that I lost my cool a while back when they got to the point where they started thinking they were cool. Like sometimes I'll come in and I'll say a word and you're like I don't know that word and then I'll say oh, you know the kids are saying this word, but I'm probably. You can always assume I'm at least six months to a year behind. I mean, I may not be years and years behind.
Speaker 2:But I'm always enough behind To where and I probably shouldn't say it Because it sounds silly Coming out of my mouth. It sounds cringe, as the kids would say.
Speaker 1:Like we talked about on the radio. There was that great line from one of the Austin Powers movies when he says there's nothing worse than an aging hipster. And you know, that's why I think I don't care, because I don't want to be an aging hipster. Yeah, and you know that's why I think I don't care, because I don't want to be an aging hipster. I'm not trying to be like, I'm not trying to be cool anymore. I'm done with that, I don't care anymore.
Speaker 2:Right, I just don't care. Well, but it's also not that cool to be cool anymore and it's much more oh it's not. No, it's, but it still doesn't. You know what, though? But?
Speaker 1:from. We've established that. That's fine with you, but you're at this point when you're like, honestly, like I used to try to watch All the TV shows, like everything, every night, because I wanted to go On the air the next day and talk about everything.
Speaker 2:Right.
Speaker 1:Now I don't watch anything. As a matter of fact, I'm losing shows by the year, like one of my favorite shows is Bob Hart's Abishola. It's gone. I'm not replacing it. You know what I mean.
Speaker 2:Okay, but here's the thing on that Like there was a time back in the days of 90210 and Melrose Place and American Idol in its heyday where you had to go, you had to watch that stuff, friends. All of that because you wanted to be able to talk about it the next day on the radio because, that's what everyone was doing. The radio, because that's what everyone was doing. But nowadays, with so many streaming services, so many different choices and so many people not watching things in real time, you don't have to do that anymore.
Speaker 1:And everything's a spoiler, if you do Right. Because people like we have a mutual friend that loves Young Sheldon and I hit him up last night and was like, are you caught up? He's like no, I'm waiting until the end of the season to binge the whole thing. I'm like what? What? Yeah, like who does that? A lot of people do now On network TV shows.
Speaker 2:A lot of people still do that. Wow, yeah, sure, okay.
Speaker 1:Well, I am not cool, nor do I try to be. All right and I'm past 39, so that makes all the sense in the world.
Speaker 2:So what else do you have on that list of things we didn't really get to or give enough time to on the radio?
Speaker 1:I actually saw this, I think, on Monday, and I knew that we wouldn't get to it on the radio Monday and I just kind of like snapped a picture of it to remind me to go back to it. These are 10. I haven't been on a date in like 15 years, but these are 10 dating ideas that guarantee a second date, and I wanted to run them by you because you're much cooler than me.
Speaker 2:We've already established, I'm not, but okay.
Speaker 1:So we can just spitfire these real quick. Number 10, explore new cuisine.
Speaker 2:Oh wait, what is the subject again? You just said it fits being on a date, but what are?
Speaker 1:the things. It's 10 first date ideas that guarantee a second date.
Speaker 2:Oh, okay, that's right, you did say that it's cool to listen, explore new cuisine.
Speaker 1:Fight me.
Speaker 2:Okay, so exploring new cuisine.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I like this one because if it's something neither one of you ever tried, it might be something kind of daring Because it gives you something to talk about. Yeah, daring and new and exciting for a first date.
Speaker 2:I think that's a great first date idea Sharing and new and exciting for a first date. I think that's a great first date idea.
Speaker 1:Attending a sports game or event.
Speaker 2:If the person is a fan, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1:I think that's a good one. Go bowling. I love this because who goes bowling anymore? And I love to bowl and I never go bowling.
Speaker 2:All right. Here's when that isn't going to work. If you're an amazing bowler, don't invite the person to go bowling with you if they're not a bowler.
Speaker 1:That's a good point.
Speaker 2:If you're just like everybody else in the world. That's like I bowl occasionally, very, very rarely.
Speaker 1:Like I've never broke 100 bowling.
Speaker 2:Right, Like if you, I don't know what that even is that good or bad?
Speaker 1:That's bad. I'm not a good bowler. I'm sure I never have either. Then Number seven is to go to a wine or beer tasting event. I like it. I like it too, because there's something to do there.
Speaker 2:You gotta rate the.
Speaker 1:Right, exactly Number six have a picnic at a local park. I love this because restaurants Can be so much pressure on a first date.
Speaker 2:Oh, I don't like that at all.
Speaker 1:You don't.
Speaker 2:No, I don't. I think that if I were on a first date With someone and he did a picnic, I'd be like oh, oh, my gosh, how many girls have you trotted this out?
Speaker 1:on. Oh, I didn't think about that, it just seems too cliche to me, Then you might not like number five either. Take a scenic hike. Number four visit a local fair or festival.
Speaker 2:That's a good one. It is. That's a very good one.
Speaker 1:Okay, I'm thinking you know that Strawberry Festival what's happening right now and I was there opening weekend. Such a great event. Attend a live music event. I'll tell you why I like this one, and I would put this at number three as well Attending a movie, and I think a movie or a concert are great because you don't have to interact, you don't have to talk, you can just sit there. It's not super social, but it's also very social at the same time.
Speaker 2:Let's agree to disagree on that as well. I really I don't I. A concert, yes, a movie, no, unless it's your way in. Like it's not, unless it's like you know, oh yeah, you're a fan of this too. Like, hey, it's your way to say. Like, what do you think about going and seeing that? Okay, yeah, that'd be one thing, but just to make a date and then go to the movies, to me that that's a cop out.
Speaker 1:You don't really talk, I feel like a movie and then like a real quick, like go for some like dessert or coffee and talk about the movie, as long as you do that. Yeah, number two explore a museum or an art gallery. Where are you on that? Not a great first date, that doesn't?
Speaker 2:sound like that much fun to me.
Speaker 1:Okay, it just doesn't. And finally, the number one thing to ensure you get a second date after a first date is try out a cooking class.
Speaker 2:For a first date. Maybe you know I liked the first half of that list much better than I liked the second half of that list. I think it got a little bit too creative.
Speaker 2:So like the higher the number goes up, yeah, I mean the cooking class idea is fun and it's cute, but then you're in a scenario where you're meeting people almost like you're a couple and I wouldn't love that. I don't think, okay, that makes sense, but I don't know. I mean, I think every scenario is different, but I think you're spot on with some of those.
Speaker 1:Okay.
Speaker 2:Some of those are so great.
Speaker 1:Really really good yeah.
Speaker 2:And some of them are just more like individual to you. If you are someone and you know that person loves art, obviously that museum. I love art, but I wouldn't want to go to an art museum with someone I don't really know that well and try to discuss it.
Speaker 1:Gotcha, gotcha, I mean. I'm not that way Well there are just some starters for you.
Speaker 2:They're great starters.
Speaker 1:If you're going on a first date.
Speaker 2:The list is phenomenal.
Speaker 1:Pick the ones you like yeah, in whole it's a good list.
Speaker 2:So let's talk about the battle of the sexes and get back to that. The topics this week really ranged all over the place.
Speaker 1:Of course we're going into mother's day, so we had to have a one one day of the battle. Being about moms, we always have leftovers. We had one where it was nurses day, so we did kind of a like a anatomy 101 quiz. Uh, we had. I liked the quiz we did on the 1900s decades.
Speaker 2:I did too. That was really great. Yeah, because you don't think about things in terms of decades, unless you really unless they're really standout things like there's one question on there that you'll hear that the person gets wrong and you're like to me. That makes perfect sense that they would guess the way they guessed okay I don't want to give anything away, so you just listen right now and then you let us know.
