girls: What should guys wear on a first date?
Jeans and a t-shirt just won’t cut it. Or will they?

Hmm, I’m not reallying digging this channel. It has potential, but I think these are the wrong people hosting it.
No offense meant of course, but these girls seem to have very little energy and enthusiasm, and they aren’t really giving the best advise. I’m not sure why Emma being a great entrepreneur makes her a good candidate for giving people love/relationship/sex advice. Bella (is that right? Why isn’t her name listed anywhere?) seems to sometimes be a little clearer on her thoughts, but I’m still not sold on her.
Really it’s more frustrating as it feels a bit like they’re rambling at times. It might be good to let them prep their answers before hand so what they say is clearer. At least until they’ve gotten more practice at answering these questions.
Another thing I’d want to mention is that you’ve already had a couple of sex questions, but no acknowledgment of any possible health concerns. A prime reason Not to sleep with someone on the first date would be because you don’t know what he could be walking around with. And that’s not a moral judgment, that’s just being aware of possible consequences.
These kind of shows can be great, but you can also open up the possibility of all kinds of questions and all kinds of people. Granted this is prerecorded and screened, advice should be given carefully as you never know how someone’s going to interpret it.
I’d really recommend looking up ‘Love Line,’ a US radio (and for a while TV) show dealing with the same issues. I’m not expecting it to be copied as I don’t expect Channel Flip to handle quite the same types of questions, but it could be a good frame of reference.
Just my two cents.

Just to chip into the conversation, I think these girls are great!
Very dry sense of humour and also easy on the eye.
I agree that they could warm up a little bit, but I’m guessing that they are new to the gig?
Am interested to see how it progresses…

Bella and Emma are hot and give great advice!

Did she say, “Don’t wear a jacket and a shirt.”? She must be giving the guys advice. Probably works best if you have a hairy chest.
Freshly washed. Not all girls are like these two, but freshly washed is hard to argue with unless you’re a hero and you’re fresh from the fight. Basically, it’s best if you smell like clean cloths rather than anything else.
Being real is over rated on a first date. A little mystery will keep them coming back. The key is the same as aftershave, “a little”.
It’s important that they learn to trust you, but they don’t have to know all about you. In fact, it’s better if they learn about you from experience, rather than from you telling them. Even having other’s tell them is better than you telling them.
Take them somewhere you are familiar with. Bring them into your element, where you’re already comfortable. If you don’t have such a place, then establish one. Go to a single restaurant a couple times and get to know some of the staff so you can help her feel like you are “established” somewhere. If you can’t “get to know” some of the staff, then find another place to use for a first date.
