Will you let the Mix. FM team set you up?

On the way to work this morning, I tuned in to the Mix.FM channel as is my usual habit and heard their new program which is sponsored by Nivea. This new program allows listeners to write in about someone that they fancy and the team of Serena C , Ika and Pietro will help set them up with the guy or gal that they fancy! Sounds interesting enough when I first heard the ads on the radio. So this morning , a caller named Hannah called up and requested the team to help fix her up with a colleague and friend named Mike, whom she hangs out and talks a lot with and apparently shared enough such that she thinks that they are compatible when vetted by Pietro. She just had not had the guts to tell him how she feels about him or to ask him out on a date.

So the Mix team called up Mike and asks him if he will agree to dinner for two with Hannah paid for by Nivea and Mike agreed. Then they revelead to Mike the actual theme of the program and asked him again if he is willing to go and after the slightest (barely perceptible, really) unless you are a sharp cynic like me, he said yes, of course! Very manly, Mikey.

Now my question is this, what was poor Mike suppose to do, a bit of a catch 22 here, if he said no , his dear friend and colleague will be publicly humiliated with all of Mix.Fm listeners. So, he is a clever chappy , this Mike , he says yes, gets called gallant, gets a free dinner date (a date is not any kind of "commitment") , have loads of fun and enjoy dinner with his good friend and can still let his good friend down gently....but better yet, he gave himself the option to discover true love!

But....my questions is this , will you dare let a radio show set you up?
What are the chances of success or will it backfire big time?
