0:00.0	Welcome to Pick Me Up, I'm scared. The podcast. I'm your host, Madeline. And I'm your co-host, Kenna.
0:28.8	Okay, Kenna, today I wanted to ask you, I know you're 35, I'm about to be 35. If you were single
0:35.9	and you were on dating apps, what age range would you like
0:39.7	set for yourself? Oh my God. Uh, probably like between like 30 and 50, maybe like even 55.
0:53.0	Oh, wow. Maybe like, yeah, probably like maybe even up to 60 because there's like
0:58.3	there's some like uh like anthony bourdain style i was just watching that before and i was like oh yeah
1:06.4	i would date someone his age i like that i feel like I would probably set it for like 30 to 40.
1:14.2	You know?
1:15.3	I feel like that's like five years below my age, five years above my age.
1:20.0	I think that's what I would go for.

1:44.9	heard I don't know if this is true but I feel like your brain doesn't even fully
1:49.1	develop until you're like 32 or something. The only thing I've heard is the prefrontal
1:53.0	cortex doesn't stop developing until you're 25 but I don't know if that's true. I haven't
1:56.6	looked that up. Yeah I just feel like in if I'm making the arbitrary rules, you are not an adult
2:02.7	till you are 30. I like that. I think that makes sense to me. I think that there should be a different
2:06.7	term for like 20 to 30. It's like it's like teen part two. It's post teen. Post teen. Yeah. Um,
2:14.4	well, you know, if we were straight men looking to date and we were being our truest true selves,
