#11 Dating Southern Men VS. Midwest Men

[@meltingpointcreations1457]

Sarah, girl, YES. My midwestern man is completely oblivious, I dropped so many hints trying to get him to go out with me. I ended up just telling him one night, “after work, you go to this bar and you and I are going to hang out.” He finally figured out that I’d been flirting with him for MONTHS 😆

[@phobos258]

Quote of the episode for me is "the more exit ramps they give you the more they like ya"

[@brandonmajors3007]

It’s so true!!!

[@carakellmeyer5037]

That bartender has stories to share! I was completely enjoying her facial expressions while taking the call about dating Midwestern men 😂😂😂

[@DeliahAyala.2.14.91.]

Me too! Best part honestly her and the other bartenders probably laughed their asses off afterwards 🤣 and poor charlie "they get shot a lot...." 😅😂🤣🤣

[@CleoHarperReturns]

Me too! It's the only time I've missed bartending. Hot, excellent tipper making me laugh all day? Throw in some rubber floor mats and I'm back on the force.

[@MistaGrym]

This is my go-to podcast while I mow the lawn.

[@ryanflaugh9161]

The best is watching the bartenders reaction

[@ignacios0leis674]

Keep up the great content fellas. I have come over from tiktok! Followed on spotify and now here. Ya’ll are right on the head about midwesterners.

[@livinthedream777]

Miles' and Charlie's political savvy is impressive! 😆So spot on...the "small print" addition for the deer camp proposition was hilarious and so Washington DC!🤣 The whole conversation around the topic was the best entertainment!🤣

[@LaRhondaTurner]

I was sent here by my boyfriend who grew up in the Midwest because he thought it would help me "understand [his] shorts better" 😂. I will never forget this one pair of shorts that he wore on our 3rd date that I now lovingly call my "favorite" shorts. They are slim cut corduroy, a little tight on the legs, saggy on the butt and showed very clearly he hadn't been in the sun for a very long time. We still laugh about those shorts (which by the way, I have grown to love because they are very 'him'). I have not dated a lot of Midwestern men, but this man is the sweetest man I've ever had the pleasure to love. I've never been cared for and fully accepted as I have been with him. I wouldn't trade him or my favorite shorts for anything in the world. To Sarah, I'm a black woman from DC, which at first glance could also be intimidating for a laid back, soft spoken, Midwestern white man. He and I could not be more different in personality and upbringing, but still there is so much we have in common that draws us together. There is a man out there who will love you and everything about you including your accent and all the spiciness that comes with being you! Just keep being your fiery self! Guys, I enjoyed the show!

I'm from Chicago. My husband is from East Knoxville Tennessee. There's nothing like a southern gentleman

[@ront9395]

People are people. I’m from Brooklyn/LI. My wife is from the UP. We’ll be married 43 years in August. My generation had an easier time dating. We did something called dancing. Before the invention of the mobile phone we did something called talking. I didn’t buy my wife an engagement ring or have a big wedding. Living together was frowned upon, so weddings were a means to an end, not an end in itself. I never found Southern girls intimidating, I would think quite the opposite. I wonder if Sarah met someone by now.

[@MsTigerseye77]

Wow what a contrast! As a Southern woman I think I would prefer the Midwestern man's approach. Some Southern men can be very direct and aggressive. I have noticed this with men on the East coast in general. This observation is pertaining strictly to my own encounters BTW. My favorite are the guys who go down the list of what qualities the expect or try to act as if they know me well enough to tell me who I am the first time we meet! You get no outs. You might be cornered. Heaven forbid you get sick of their efforts and clearly express you are not interested. 🙄 I would be interested in experiencing interacting with guy from the mid West on a social level and see if I experience what you and your caller describe. It would make for a pleasant change of pace. I love these podcast! You guys do an amazing job! Keep 'em coming!

[@grathado28]

Holy s*** guys keep doing what you're doing, it's just a matter of time before you guys become huge check out a book a thousand true fans

[@phobos258]

I've been rocking shorter and shorter shorts for the last decade and this is the first year I went back to a 12 inseam and they've become my favorite pair. It keeps the skeeters off my tender thighs.

[@CleoHarperReturns]

Cripes! The tight rope was really wobbly in this one.😅 I'm moving back to the Midwest soon and I'm really looking forward to seeing the weak, fearful men again. They're so beautiful when they stand perfectly still with their ears perked up.🦌

[@amurphy2503]

My dad wakes up early to take our dog out and my parents room is the room laundry is done in so he grabbed the first pair of shorts he could find which happened to be my mesh booty shorts and according to him he absolutely rocked then

[@amrlreader]

Don’t feel too bad, I’ve also locked my keys in the car at target

[@Loves2laugh15]

Based on what ya'll have said and my personal experience, I would prefer either a midwestern man or a northern man. I am not a fan of southern men. I have not observed southern men to be direct haha. Some can be though

[@MeMe-lm9bm]

Southern men know how to talk with, act with women. They are also confident people.

[@hersheytemple]

I'm learning so much about myself right nowas a fellow Midwest dude lol

[@mikevanenglehoven6088]

I went to go get athletic shorts this summer and all are above the knees and I hate it

[@endlessmountainoutdoors]

I worked for a funeral home for a few years after the military. I would help with everything from picking up bodies to helping with the embalming and preparation process. The clothing is cut up the back and put on from the front. No..they do not have shoes on most of the time because it’s difficult to manipulate the foot to get them on and that’s why most bodies are covered from the waste down. It’s crazy what a mortician can do to hide damage caused when they died. The organs are in a bag stuffed in the body cavity and sewn shut after the autopsy. All that is removed, embalmed and put back and seen shut again. I prepared a vessel for an open casket that was a shotgun blast to the face. The way clothing is used, the position of the body in the casket and the casket itself m. and lighting. Lots of makeup and putty type material. Studs are punched into the top and bottom jaw and the mouth is wired shut. Contacts with spikes are put on the eye ball to hold the eyes closed. All jewelry is removed before they torch a casket worth more than most cars. After your body is cooked to well done what’s left is run through a coffee grinder but strong enough for bone. Any metal left internally like fillings, screws and plates in the body will be melted down. I recommend everyone request to not be embalmed. The process of embalming and preparing a body for a viewing is a waste of money and degrading to our vessel after death. Cremation or natural burial in the ground under a tree somewhere. As far as the hunting camp by-laws. It’s funny to hear other camps with the exact same laws with work weekends, no women, no children and only members can hunt the first week of deer season. Take all that old school mentality from the 1930’s and then throw natural gas royalties from 5 pads on almost 1000 acres split 20 ways

[@marimar3161]

Charlie would be considered very socially awkward in the South. The South has a lot more social norms. You don't say random stuff to strangers like Charlie does

[@abaileyjr97]

Keep it interesting. Intellectual conversation and politics is huge in the Midwest

[@tallyfye9594]

I say a lot of things to random strangers in the south wdym?

[@marimar3161]

@@tallyfye9594 And you're probably seen as socially awkward. It's ok to talk to random strangers, but having full blown quirky conversations with people in the grocery store is not normal here

[@tallyfye9594]

@@marimar3161 I’m not scene as socially awkward thank you very much. I’m a friendly guy I think people just like that because it’s different here. It’s more of a Texas specific thing maybe but I see a lot of people strike up conversations with “randos” all the time

[@marimar3161]

@@tallyfye9594 striking up a conversation is fine, but saying the random weird things that Charlie always says in his videos will be seen as socially awkward in the South. Southerners care way more about social norms that Midwesterners. Midwesterners dont care about being seen as weird

[@nickinportland]

You can only wear a 9 inch inseam if you are tall. I’m 5-10 and a 5-6 incher is all I’ve ever worn. Kudos to those who go shorter.

No women at the deer camp grow some 🥜 and tell ur wife NO!

[@averagemcgee8604]

I like these guys, i really do, but theyre just passive. I was born and raised in Northern Michigan, and these guys make Midwestern men out to be chickens. Deer camp is for the boys, you gotta set boundaries. Nothing wrong with men getting away for a week and hanging with their pals. Its important for Men to be able to just get away. The fact theyre so cool with ruining tradition is shameful. And as for dating, not every Midwestern man is pussyfooting around. These guys are obviously Minnesota nice, but they were giving advice to people living in Michigan which is very different. They think all of the Midwest is Minnesota apparently

[@TiffanyTrainer-i7p]

Hey guys, just wanted to add the the by laws on the women in the deer camp. As a woman with a cabin in the u.p. donken Michigan. I would add that women aren't aloud if their on their period because it can attract the wrong animals and scare the deers. So if they are on they can come along no problem.

[@kevinbrooks1104]

Actually they take a brand new suit coat and cut the back out then they dress the corpse , but really you should remember that you should bury your loved ones in the clothes they were comfortable in because they are going to wear it for eternity

[@ritahassing2533]

Love walleye! Dont start with Black Russians, like my sisters gave me. I got sick n threw up in their car. Steady she goes!

[@HeritageSoftail]

I'm from Chicago. My husband is from East Knoxville Tennessee. I wouldn't trade my southern gentleman for ten Midwest men. Never again

[@barfgreenrulz]

Full disclosure: I don’t date men who wear shorts that cover the knee 😆

[@rvnvs6592]

late comment, but about the deer camp thing. like I get wanting some time away from the family but you don't have to ban women wholesale to do that. like maybe just a no spouses on the same trip rule or smth. mens week and women's week is a solution but I feel like a gender neutral one would be better so u could be inclusive or if ur male u could bring friends along who are female and like hunting

[@ravenzyblack]

The whole point of the deer camp was for men to bond with other men, to have a place only for men. Women have that all the time. At the spa, when they go shopping, ladies nights, wine trips, my weekends. There are very few places where men can go and just be men.

[@thejdogcool]

@@ravenzyblack Exactly. This dotard thinks that excluding women from this is somehow "mean". Men need a chance to enjoy each other's company.

[@hhunstad2011]

​@@ravenzyblack Not all women are like you. No chance in hell I wanna do the shit you talked about. Let me tell you, it'd be their gain to have me around camp! If you don't want your wives around that badly, get better wives!
