00:00And for people who might be new to the MRL show, explain to them what Datum or Dumpum is.
00:05So it's one of my favorite segments because we always hear the dating in the Carolinas is so bad.
00:10So we want to help you, but you go on a couple of dates.
00:15You think maybe something's a red flag.
00:18You call us.
00:19Our radio family will help you out.
00:21And we decide whether you date him again or her or you move on to the next guy.
00:26Yeah.
00:26Date him, EM, Datum, or Dumpum, EM.
00:29Right.
00:31Kind of gender neutral.
00:32But we have Holly on the phone and also Luke, who went out with Holly on a couple of dates.
00:40But we'll go to Holly first.
00:42Hey, Holly.
00:43Hi, guys.
00:44How are you?
00:45We're great.
00:46Okay, so you like Luke.
00:47You've been out with him a couple times.
00:50What's the issue?
00:53Yeah, and I've been listening to this segment.
00:55I just never knew I would be on it.
00:57We hear a lot of people say that.
00:59Oh, my goodness.
01:00Well, so he has this older sister, which I found out about, you know, before we even went on the first date.
01:09Like, I'd already heard about her.
01:10And we've been on, I think, like, yeah, three dates now.
01:13And he's just so close to her that it's, like, weird.
01:17Like, on all of the dates, he's FaceTimed with her.
01:23While on the date with you, he FaceTimed her?
01:27Yeah.
01:27Like, when you went to the bathroom?
01:29Well, he wasn't the one that, I don't know.
01:32Yeah, one of the times I was in the bathroom.
01:33So I don't know if he called her.
01:35He just picked up.
01:36But, like, to even answer on a date, like, and, yeah, I just, he referred to her, like, I don't know, a dozen times.
01:46Holly, are you part of the conversation when sister FaceTimes in?
01:50Or is it, like, Luke's like, I got to take this.
01:54And he's just having a one-sided conversation.
01:57Or is he, like.
01:57Oh, no, he shares everything.
01:59Look what she ordered.
02:00They'll turn his phone around.
02:02Like, it was so weird.
02:03Yeah, he's open with everything.
02:06But maybe they're just really close.
02:08Clearly.
02:09Well, yeah, but I just feel like it's one of those, like, oh, am I ever going to be even, like, in the number one?
02:20I don't even know.
02:21Like, I just feel like.
02:22No, I think that's a legit feeling.
02:24Like, I'll never get in.
02:25Yeah, I mean, Holly, I've been married to my wife, Amanda, 11 years now.
02:29And when I first met her, she had a solid circle.
02:32And it was a joke.
02:33Like, will Maney ever get in her circle?
02:35And, you know, her circle has since dwindled, by the way, to, like, three of us now from six.
02:39But that's a legit fear.
02:41Okay, but follow me down this road.
02:43Because I'm interested to talk to Luke.
02:45Because maybe the fact that he is so close to his sister.
02:50And he is now including his sister in some way to your date.
02:55Maybe he wants you two to be best friends so that there is no back and forth between the number one or number two spot.
03:03But on, like, a first and second date.
03:06And, like, it's just.
03:08I get it.
03:10It's very in your face.
03:12Luke's saying, like, Luke's almost telling Holly that he needs to.
03:17She's got to pass the sister test.
03:19He needs to make sure she's okay.
03:21The sister's okay with Holly.
03:22That's what I think.
03:23I think I'm even okay with the sister test.
03:25All right, well, let's bring him in.
03:26Here he is.
03:27Good morning, Luke.
03:28Hey, what's going on, guys?
03:30What's your sister's name?
03:32My sister's name is Leia.
03:35Leia?
03:35Luke and Leia?
03:38I know, right?
03:38My parents are really big Star Wars fans.
03:41Bye, Luke.
03:44Oh, that's so funny.
03:46All right.
03:47Okay, so, Luke, tell us why you FaceTimed Leia.
03:52Why you FaceTimed Leia on the date?
03:57I FaceTimed Leia because I love her.
04:00She's my sister.
04:00What do you mean?
04:01She's, like, my sister.
04:03I cherish our relationship together.
04:06Okay, so there's nothing deeper to this than you two just being super close and you can't
04:11going two hours on a date without speaking to her?
04:14No, I mean, is she just, you know, we just, like, there was something funny we were talking
04:18about at dinner.
04:19I decided to call Leia and tell her.
04:21It was a funny joke that I thought she would find funny.
04:23So, listen, it's not like I've heard, I haven't heard this before.
04:27I've definitely heard from other girls that I've gone out with.
04:30Like, why do you have such a close relationship with your sister?
04:33We just, we've gone through life together.
04:35There's not, there's not much, there's not much to it.
04:39I mean, she's a good person and she looks out for me.
04:41So, it's one of those things.
04:42Like, if, if, if she likes Holly, then, you know, I'm sure I'll like Holly.
04:47Okay, but Luke, like, I know you just said, this isn't the first time you've heard this.
04:53Have you ever heard of boundaries?
04:57No.
04:59We got a text message from someone who said that on the first date, totally unacceptable,
05:04Luke.
05:05Holly, uh, you want to take some calls because everybody texting in seems to think you should
05:10dump him.
05:11That is just too bizarre.
05:13And they also bring up a good point, Holly and Luke, that it won't stop here.
05:18He'll need, uh, lay his approval on what kind of car to buy for you guys.
05:24What kind of furniture to put in the house?
05:25If you guys get married, where you should go to get engaged.
05:29I will say that is really annoying to have to like get the approval of somebody else for
05:33everything.
05:34I I've told you guys the story, but my sister-in-law came into my house and like rearranged my furniture
05:38a couple of times.
05:39And I was like, whoa, too much boundaries.
05:41Hey, Tammy and Indian Trail, real quick.
05:43You're on with, uh, Luke and Holly.
05:46What'd you want to say?
05:47Hi, I just wanted to say that it's the relationship's not going to work out.
05:52Um, he and his sister are codependent on each other.
05:57And in order to, to rid that, there's definitely some serious therapy that needs to happen.
06:03Yep.
06:04Okay.
06:05All right.
06:06Okay.
06:07This is so awkward with Luke.
06:09I know most of the time when we dump the guy, he's not on the phone.
06:12It's just her.
06:13So they're saying to dump him.
06:16I want to take, don't dump me, please.
06:21I mean, you know how like when there's like an audience vote and you're like, yeah, that's
06:27what I was thinking too.
06:28Like, it's just like, it makes sense.
06:31Like, that's why everyone's saying it.
06:32All right.
06:33So Holly, you're going to go with the radio family and dump him?
06:38Well, I don't know.
06:41Like, we got to go to commercial quick.
06:44Decide.
06:44Three, two, one, go.
06:47Uh, one more date.
06:48All right.
06:49One more date.
06:50No FaceTime.
06:51No.
06:51Your sister, Luke.
06:53Period.
06:53End of story.
