Yeah! I say it’s 33. You’ve put yourself through enough suffering, so don’t go looking for more–enjoy this, and buy a mattress and some towels. ; )

Hey Tim
I was eating my dinner at Barbara’s while listening to Un4. Maybe not the best idea on my part, but I was told a great story, so it was worth it…. You were able to capture the feelings I was trying to go for in my “Craigslist Chronicles” only you were able hit the target.
Dude, you really blew me away. We’ll talk more when I see you, but you really put it out there. A comedy and a tragedy in the same breath. I feel lucky to have seen the seeds of this at the studio during the Art Walk…. I told you, you’d find someone!
But I do have two friendly pieces of advice: First stop counting days. Be in the moment…. Second, listen to Cush’s “How to Deal with Hot Chicks.” NOW!!!
Keep ‘em coming.
–Lance
Great story, I heard about your podcast listening to my favorite podcast, Digital Detroit Radio. I could actually put myself in the situation you talked about. Doode, to me its day 52, the day she bumped into you, your almost at 2 months already. Remember that day, cause she will. She sounds like a keeper.
This episode was a 10.
It’s 33 days, but in dog (bitch) years that’s 7 months.
So that’s more than four months bitch!
Okay, we got 2 votes for 33 days and 1 for 52 days.
And Lance, I’ve listened to Cush’s episode but I may need to re-visit.
Thanks for checking in guys (and “Chris the Girl”).
Tim
Hey, great storytelling…
I’m gonna have to vote for 52 days. I mean we are talking about the “relationship” as a whole right, now just “going out”?
Hey Tim:
Gotta say, I really love your podcast. Your mother’s comment notwithstanding, it’s great that you share your life with folks in this manner.
RE: What day are you on (when you recorded that last podcast)?
I say you’re really on day 52. You’ve been “with her” for that long, no question. Who cares about Option Boy? Something hot was happening and you two were on the “road” to your four months (and beyond). This is no time to be conservative about numbers — wheels are in motion.
Mike (in Halifax, Canada)
Canada weighs in!
Thanks Mike. I didn’t know I had anybody up there listening.
Tim
52. Without a doubt.
Regarding keeping the excitement…I’ve been married 22 years. I expect it to go another 22. The excitement of new love does end, but it’s replaced by a comfortable, belonging feeling. Like that favorite concert T-shirt, it was great to get because the concert was cool, hip and happening, and you felt special because you were THERE at that concert of the moment. And then, after 10 years, it’s still your favorite shirt, but now it’s because the shirt’s soft and faded and just about the most comfortable shirt you can imagine.
B.
I’m going with 52 also, the more days you count, the better your chances are of making it to four months…good luck!
Tim,
Looks like the vote is 52. I also represent the Canadian vote being on the Best coast, Vancouver, BC (AKA Hollywood North). Can’t wait to hear more from your podcast, so far unkempt #4 pt 1 and 2 was my exposure to yours. I’ve been listening to Matt on DDR (and don’t forget the “Duece”) for the past year; his show rocks too. I thought the whole Jeremy Roenick thing was hillarous.
Just curious, are there any previous episodes I should go back and download?
baby, i get a thrill every time i hear your voice. everything you do is hot, i don’t care WHAT you dry off with! i miss you constantly, think of you always and can’t wait to see you again; don’t get sick of me!
luv,
me
Okay, in case you’re wondering. The above comment really is from “the hot chick”. By the way, when I went out to my scooter this morning there was a present sittiing on top of it from “the hot chick”. Guess what it was. . . . . . . . A NEW TOWEL!!!! How cool is this girl?
Tim
Tim,
Dude . . you have to stop counting. You’ve got a total babe but if you still need a vote I’m going to say 52.
You scored yourself a hottie and don’t let us down man! Hey . . I stumbled across your podcast from itunes and it is awesome. I’ve been listening from episode one while at work and it is awesome to watch you progress and get better at what you do!
Don’t let us down and hold up to your original 6 months man . . the passion might die down . . but the creativity won’t . . as long as you don’t let it . . . that starving artist bull is bulworth.
Tim… You asked how to make a relationship last. However, you already told everyone how you were you going to make it last. You have a relationship built on honesty. I don’t have the longest lasting relationship posted here. But, next month is my 9 year wedding anniversary with a lovely beauty I’ve been with 11 years. Lance, love your show too sorry about this - Tim, Don’t listen to Lance, Cush’s advice is perfect for some of my friends and I never miss his shows. But, don’t follow it for this girl.
Keep up the good work!! I LOVE THIS SHOW!!
-Ray (Denver, CO)
Ray,
Ahhhh. Some common sense from Colorado. You nailed it. Honesty. That’s it. I love Cush as well but I’m staying the hell away from him on this one. Congrats on 9 years. Awesome!
Hey Paul!
Thanks for the encouragement and optimism.
No, no. You SHOULD listen to Cush on Hot chicks, Part 1. The whole point is that chicks dig a guy that’s self-assured. If you don’t love yourself, how can you expect anyone else to?
And anyway, it sounds like you are doing this already.
B.
You’re definitely right about the self-assured thing and I’m starting to like myself more and more. So, I’m heading in the right direction. She believes in me so much that it’s contagious. I’m starting to realize how totally great I am.
Tim
Tim,
If she believes in you like we do, then she’s all right in our book! I def. think 46 days, or from the day you made the arrangements to meet at the bar, should be day one. My longest relationship before Tricia was only like six months or so (Nantucket was a beauty though, wasn’t she?), so hey, you never know.
Keep up the great work!
Also, with the kids, if they try something new, like peanut butter, and they break out in a rash, I certainly make them try it a second time before I would declare an allergy, so keep that in mind with your potential ‘allergy’ problem.
I LOVE happy endings!
Thanks Gail! I’m starting to like them as well.
Tim
Yeah, yeah, yeah, four months. Whatever. Blah, blah, blah, love. MY favorite part of the story was you talking about oral sex and then, “Kinda reminds me of when I was teaching boys how to play basketball.” I have said it before and I’ll say it again, it is dangerous to listen to this podcast while out running. My sides hurt I was laughing so hard. Oh and now my girlfriend wants a Duran Duran board game. Another great show!
Tim
It’s 46 days. I’m surprised more people don’t see it that way. That’s the first time you two planned to get together so that’s a date so that’s the start of the relationship. I knew my wife for four years before we started dating but I don’t include those first four years when someone asks me how long we’ve been together. Know what I mean?
That said, you should stop counting days. Great shows!
These last two episodes were the best!! - Keep up the great work!!
Waving the “Tim Coyne Fan Flag” in Beantown for ya!!
Cheers,
Jeff
Beantown in the house!!!
Thanks for checking in Jeff. I’m glad to hear I’ve got some representation back home.
Go Sox!
Tim
The hot chick gave you a towel even AFTER the uh…”food poisoning”?!?
What a sweetie!
Congratulations on another great show, your new towel, and your fabulous new lady-friend.
-Gail (Saskatchewan, Canada….yep, ANOTHER Canadian)
absolutely floored by the richness of the story…couldn’t get enough and didn’t want it end…33, 46, 52…it doesn’t matter. if i calculate correctly, I spent over 1,000 days in a relationship and probably never achieved the connection that you two have found in a fraction of that. which is more foolish? not having yet gotten to four months in your life? or staying for 36 without feeling those emotions which you so eloquently spell out? wow, tim. congratulations on the story and, more importantly, the girl.
If I was the voting kind, I would say 52. But then again, neither my sweetie or myself can remember exactly which day we met, but we do know that was the day the romance started. When you’re in the moment, you’re in the moment, it doesn’t matter how long it’s been.
Keep up the great work, it was a great change.
Todd
JF and Todd!
Thank you so much for the encouragement. I just kind of went for it on these things. So I’m glad some people are enjoying them.
Tim
Wow great show. First time I listened to it in a while. I sooo want your Duran Duran Game Board.
Miss you…
Tim,
It’s day 1 of the rest of the relationship.
Yesterday is a canceled check and tomarrow is a promisory note. Today’s the only day I can enjoy.
i’ve never listened to your show before, but let me tell you, this shit is gold dude. wow.
Julien,
Whoa! Thanks so much. Hope you stick around. I also hope I continue to have something to talk about. We’ll see.
Kenneth,
You’re deep . . . very deep. I’m trying to follow your advice. Ain’t easy.
Hey Tim-
I always hear your little phone rants on DDR so I finally got around to listening to your podcast. I listened to your paparazzi episode 1-2 as well as your acting one - all very cool and interesting shows. Your latest podcasts #3 and 4 ‘unkempt’ - made me reminisce about my past relationships - it’s been a little over a year since I’ve dated someone - personally, I hate being alone, I’ll admit it - I’m 25 and starting a masters degree - and being alone through this sucks… interviewing bands helps… in any case… your segways are classic - I found your podcast to be thoroughly enjoyable and genuine - I’m happy that you’ve found someone that’s attractive and down to earth - especially in LA —
Warm regards,
Alex
p/s - it’s day 52. You gotta take it from where things first sparked.
Alright. It’s about time I checked out your show as well. I hear Matt mention you all the time. I will do that asap.
I hear you man. I’ve lost myself in my work and dreams over the past few years but now I’m getting dirty . . . I’m engaging. I know you have to concentrate on your studies but you’re at the exact age where I started checking out. Stay in the game! Get hurt! Get mad! Get giddy! Get . . . something!
I can’t wait to hear your show. I will do so very soon.
Tim
PS - the “hot chick” and i had one of our first fights tonight and it sucked BUT it was good to. she cares. i care.
The two four month bitch podcasts are the best yet. I was drawn into them. Please let us know what happens next.
Palle, Loyal listener from Denmark
Yo Palle! An “4 Months” update is coming very soon.
Tim
FANTASTIC pod Tim - you the man!!!
