In this short monologue, the speaker addresses recent criticism about the series on online dating for older adults, apologizes for previously omitting a key recommendation, and emphasizes the value of video calls (via WhatsApp, Zoom, FaceTime, etc.) as a next step after initial text exchanges. The advice highlights that video calls help assess physical attraction and conversational chemistry before committing to an in‑person meeting, while still acknowledging that a face‑to‑face encounter is ultimately necessary to confirm any connection.

Online dating for oldies, part 5. So a few people gave me shit the other day and said, you know what, sometimes you just can't meet somebody so quickly after a couple of texts. And WhatsApp video, video calls, Zoom, you know, FaceTime, all of that kind of stuff can be really useful to establish whether or not you actually find the person attractive, whether you got anything to talk about, and that first stage towards getting to know them. So that's a really good point, well made, and really apologize not mentioning that because I do think it does have veracity. Of course, at some point you're going to want to meet them, and at that point you're going to see whether or not there's actually anything there. But yeah, as a next step from just that initial matching, video calls are really great idea.
