A question was recently brought to the attention of Jake Skorheim, co-host of “The Jake and Spike Show” on KIRO Newsradio, regarding women’s preferences.

Jake asked—what’s more important to women when looking at a man, a six-pack or a full head of hair?

Spike O’Neill, co-host of “Jake and Spike,” and Jake both agree on head of hair.

To which producer for “Jake and Spike,” Laura Scott, responded, “ding, ding, ding, yep.”

YouTube user replies to six-pack or head of hair debate

Jake mentioned a funny comment to the question he saw on a YouTube chat, which said, “Well, my wife gets neither.”

“Also, it’s weird to me, people who spend a lot of time sculpting one part of their bodies, I think that would actually be a red flag for a lot of women,” Jake added.

Listen to the full conversation below.

Listen to “The Jake and Spike Show” weekdays from noon to 3 p.m. on KIRO Newsradio 97.3 FM. Subscribe to the podcast here.
