WEBVTT - Danny & Hope - Fugghetaboutit - 10-27-26

0:00:00.250 --> 0:00:02.450
<v Speaker 1>First date's the easy part for the most part, but

0:00:02.490 --> 0:00:05.490
<v Speaker 1>then getting the second date? Oh, man. Well, that didn't

0:00:05.510 --> 0:00:07.670
<v Speaker 1>happen for Danny. And he's called us up this morning

0:00:07.710 --> 0:00:10.160
<v Speaker 1>looking for our help. Good morning, Danny. Welcome to the show.

0:00:10.180 --> 0:00:12.280
<v Speaker 2>Hey, thanks for having me, guys. How yous doing?

0:00:12.860 --> 0:00:13.219
<v Speaker 3>Danny.

0:00:15.680 --> 0:00:17.720
<v Speaker 4>I can tell right away, Danny, you are not from here.

0:00:17.739 --> 0:00:18.380
<v Speaker 1>Where are you from?

0:00:18.400 --> 0:00:20.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're right. I'm from Long Island.

0:00:20.820 --> 0:00:21.130
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:00:21.190 --> 0:00:23.330
<v Speaker 2>I moved here with my family 10 years ago. I mean,

0:00:23.370 --> 0:00:25.169
<v Speaker 2>I still got parents in Brooklyn, but I live in

0:00:25.190 --> 0:00:26.190
<v Speaker 2>Houston now with my daughter.

0:00:26.390 --> 0:00:26.650
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:00:26.850 --> 0:00:27.330
<v Speaker 1>Love that.

0:00:27.630 --> 0:00:28.290
<v Speaker 3>Wow.

0:00:28.630 --> 0:00:31.160
<v Speaker 2>Okay, so you definitely sound New York, but you also

0:00:31.180 --> 0:00:31.690
<v Speaker 2>sound like.

0:00:31.570 --> 0:00:33.460
<v Speaker 1>A pretty good dad, so we're going to give.

0:00:33.340 --> 0:00:33.900
<v Speaker 4>You a pass.

0:00:34.120 --> 0:00:34.839
<v Speaker 1>How did you meet Hope?

0:00:35.080 --> 0:00:37.479
<v Speaker 2>Okay. Okay. Yeah, I met Hope online like everybody does

0:00:37.520 --> 0:00:39.769
<v Speaker 2>these days. And we spent a good two weeks texting

0:00:39.790 --> 0:00:41.310
<v Speaker 2>before we decided to meet out and date.

0:00:41.490 --> 0:00:43.810
<v Speaker 1>All right. So where did you go for the dates?

0:00:43.970 --> 0:00:45.790
<v Speaker 1>How did it go? All that kind of stuff.

0:00:45.990 --> 0:00:47.750
<v Speaker 2>Well, she was in a mood for comfort food. So

0:00:47.790 --> 0:00:50.120
<v Speaker 2>to me, that's Italian. What's more comforting than a big

0:00:50.130 --> 0:00:51.040
<v Speaker 2>plate of pasta, you know?

0:00:51.060 --> 0:00:51.879
<v Speaker 1>For real. Right.

0:00:51.900 --> 0:00:54.000
<v Speaker 2>So the date went great. Or so I thought, you know.

0:00:54.200 --> 0:00:56.520
<v Speaker 2>Maybe I do worry that she wasn't into me being

0:00:56.560 --> 0:00:56.880
<v Speaker 2>a dad.

0:00:57.060 --> 0:00:58.660
<v Speaker 1>A dad? Why do you say that? Yeah.

0:00:59.040 --> 0:00:59.380
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

0:00:59.420 --> 0:01:00.760
<v Speaker 2>When I brought it up, she didn't ask too many

0:01:00.800 --> 0:01:03.200
<v Speaker 2>questions about my daughter. She got kind of distant in

0:01:03.220 --> 0:01:05.830
<v Speaker 2>the conversation. Maybe I should have kept that to myself

0:01:05.860 --> 0:01:06.330
<v Speaker 2>for a little while.

0:01:06.490 --> 0:01:08.290
<v Speaker 4>I mean, I think you definitely want to be yourself

0:01:08.350 --> 0:01:10.770
<v Speaker 4>on a first date, especially for something as important as

0:01:10.810 --> 0:01:12.510
<v Speaker 4>being a dad. I mean, you mentioned to us right

0:01:12.550 --> 0:01:14.590
<v Speaker 4>away that you live here with your daughter. So that's

0:01:14.630 --> 0:01:16.790
<v Speaker 4>a huge part of your life, right? Did she say

0:01:16.830 --> 0:01:18.449
<v Speaker 4>anything to make you feel that way or this was

0:01:18.490 --> 0:01:19.770
<v Speaker 4>just a vibe that you were picking up?

0:01:19.970 --> 0:01:22.110
<v Speaker 2>She didn't say nothing, but it was definitely a vibe,

0:01:22.130 --> 0:01:25.110
<v Speaker 2>you know. She was nice. And after the date, I texted.

0:01:25.170 --> 0:01:27.730
<v Speaker 2>A few days later, I called and I texted again

0:01:27.770 --> 0:01:29.380
<v Speaker 2>even and nothing, you know.

0:01:30.020 --> 0:01:32.840
<v Speaker 1>Well, we're not the greatest at getting second dates, but

0:01:33.580 --> 0:01:35.899
<v Speaker 1>we do try very hard. So we're going to get

0:01:35.940 --> 0:01:37.160
<v Speaker 1>Hope on the phone and see if we can get

0:01:37.440 --> 0:01:39.480
<v Speaker 1>at least some answers for you. Sound good, Danny?

0:01:39.800 --> 0:01:40.160
<v Speaker 2>Perfect.

0:01:40.360 --> 0:01:42.240
<v Speaker 4>We'll do that coming up with second date update.

0:01:42.800 --> 0:01:46.310
<v Speaker 1>So Danny took Hope out for a nice walk. Italian dinner.

0:01:46.330 --> 0:01:48.710
<v Speaker 1>She wanted to go out for some comfort food. He

0:01:48.810 --> 0:01:50.550
<v Speaker 1>did bring up the fact that he has a daughter.

0:01:50.590 --> 0:01:53.320
<v Speaker 1>He's wondering if maybe he shared too much about that.

0:01:53.360 --> 0:01:56.000
<v Speaker 1>Is she not into him being a dad? We don't know.

0:01:56.080 --> 0:01:57.760
<v Speaker 1>But we're going to find out from Hope this morning

0:01:57.800 --> 0:01:59.340
<v Speaker 1>for 93Q' s Second Date Update.

0:02:01.900 --> 0:02:02.140
<v Speaker 3>Hello?

0:02:02.640 --> 0:02:03.760
<v Speaker 4>Hi, may I please speak with Hope?

0:02:04.400 --> 0:02:05.940
<v Speaker 1>Yes, this is Hope. Hi, Hope.

0:02:05.980 --> 0:02:06.580
<v Speaker 4>Good morning.

0:02:06.680 --> 0:02:07.320
<v Speaker 1>How's it going?

0:02:07.620 --> 0:02:09.820
<v Speaker 3>Good morning. Good. How are you?

0:02:10.040 --> 0:02:12.380
<v Speaker 1>It's Riggs, Kaylin, and Erica from 93Q in Houston. How

0:02:12.419 --> 0:02:12.820
<v Speaker 1>are you doing?

0:02:13.139 --> 0:02:13.880
<v Speaker 3>Oh, my goodness.

0:02:14.210 --> 0:02:15.950
<v Speaker 4>I was going to wait for you to ask who

0:02:16.010 --> 0:02:17.830
<v Speaker 4>I was, but I think we were just going to get.

0:02:17.690 --> 0:02:18.470
<v Speaker 3>Going, yeah.

0:02:19.530 --> 0:02:20.489
<v Speaker 2>Oh, my gosh.

0:02:21.730 --> 0:02:25.560
<v Speaker 3>You guys, this is like my favorite show. Yay! Yeah, hey,

0:02:26.100 --> 0:02:28.260
<v Speaker 3>did I win tickets to something, or?

0:02:28.900 --> 0:02:31.400
<v Speaker 2>No, you didn't win tickets, but we do want to

0:02:31.419 --> 0:02:34.859
<v Speaker 2>give you something super cool, like paying for you to

0:02:34.900 --> 0:02:35.200
<v Speaker 2>go on a.

0:02:35.220 --> 0:02:35.919
<v Speaker 1>Date, maybe?

0:02:35.940 --> 0:02:39.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh, okay. I mean, I might be into that.

0:02:39.060 --> 0:02:39.720
<v Speaker 2>What's involved?

0:02:39.740 --> 0:02:40.500
<v Speaker 3>What's going on?

0:02:40.580 --> 0:02:43.639
<v Speaker 4>Okay, well, you might know, since we are your favorite show,

0:02:43.660 --> 0:02:45.660
<v Speaker 4>it's going to need to be with somebody that you know.

0:02:45.800 --> 0:02:47.899
<v Speaker 1>It's a guy that you've been out with before. His

0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:49.520
<v Speaker 1>name is Danny. Remember him? Yeah.

0:02:51.230 --> 0:02:54.920
<v Speaker 3>Uh, yes. I remember Danny, the guy from New York.

0:02:55.460 --> 0:02:58.760
<v Speaker 3>How could I forget that accent he has? It's like

0:02:59.030 --> 0:02:59.950
<v Speaker 3>etched in my brain.

0:03:00.030 --> 0:03:00.290
<v Speaker 2>What?

0:03:00.680 --> 0:03:04.270
<v Speaker 1>He sounds like an endearing guy, though. One of those nice, good-hearted,

0:03:04.330 --> 0:03:07.030
<v Speaker 1>salt-of-the-earth New York. He's a father. What's wrong with Danny?

0:03:07.070 --> 0:03:07.870
<v Speaker 1>Why did you ghost him?

0:03:08.230 --> 0:03:12.070
<v Speaker 3>I wanted a guy that was conversational, but Danny took

0:03:12.110 --> 0:03:16.630
<v Speaker 3>it to another level. He would not shut up. He

0:03:16.650 --> 0:03:22.220
<v Speaker 3>just kept talking and talking, and that accent, it made

0:03:22.260 --> 0:03:22.900
<v Speaker 3>it worse.

0:03:23.120 --> 0:03:25.120
<v Speaker 1>So the New York accent is just too much for you,

0:03:25.340 --> 0:03:25.940
<v Speaker 1>even if.

0:03:25.900 --> 0:03:26.579
<v Speaker 2>He's a good guy?

0:03:26.880 --> 0:03:30.410
<v Speaker 3>Yes. I know it sounds shallow, but I don't know

0:03:30.430 --> 0:03:32.950
<v Speaker 3>why he doesn't try to talk like a normal person

0:03:33.490 --> 0:03:36.070
<v Speaker 3>or like with a Southern jaw. I might be fine

0:03:36.090 --> 0:03:38.790
<v Speaker 3>with it. It's like the first time I've ever really

0:03:38.890 --> 0:03:42.550
<v Speaker 3>spoken to somebody that like really speaks that way. Isn't

0:03:42.610 --> 0:03:45.250
<v Speaker 3>from TV. I thought I was talking to like Matt

0:03:45.290 --> 0:03:48.780
<v Speaker 3>Damon or Ben Affleck or like the Sopranos. I didn't

0:03:48.800 --> 0:03:51.220
<v Speaker 3>know if it was like an episode of Sopranos, like

0:03:51.280 --> 0:03:53.160
<v Speaker 3>minus the fame and fortune, of course.

0:03:53.400 --> 0:03:55.740
<v Speaker 4>I mean, it was, I mean, some people really like that.

0:03:55.840 --> 0:03:58.260
<v Speaker 4>Is it OK for us to bring him on the line,

0:03:58.300 --> 0:04:00.840
<v Speaker 4>kind of let him defend himself and maybe just catch

0:04:00.940 --> 0:04:02.820
<v Speaker 4>up and see where you guys are at this point?

0:04:03.880 --> 0:04:04.370
<v Speaker 1>Oh, my God.

0:04:04.880 --> 0:04:05.660
<v Speaker 3>He's on the phone.

0:04:05.710 --> 0:04:06.000
<v Speaker 2>Yes.

0:04:06.210 --> 0:04:06.470
<v Speaker 3>Yes.

0:04:06.490 --> 0:04:08.450
<v Speaker 1>You know how this works. It's second date update. Don't

0:04:08.470 --> 0:04:10.130
<v Speaker 1>play with us. Danny, are you there?

0:04:10.590 --> 0:04:12.330
<v Speaker 2>I thought I did everything right. You know, I asked

0:04:12.410 --> 0:04:14.170
<v Speaker 2>Hope where she wanted to go. I asked her a

0:04:14.170 --> 0:04:16.089
<v Speaker 2>lot of questions. I even opened up and told her

0:04:16.110 --> 0:04:18.089
<v Speaker 2>about my daughter. For me, I got a loud family.

0:04:18.170 --> 0:04:20.910
<v Speaker 2>If there's silence, I feel like something's wrong. So, you know,

0:04:21.210 --> 0:04:22.270
<v Speaker 2>I just don't like being boring.

0:04:22.450 --> 0:04:25.860
<v Speaker 3>Yes, you should have natural breaks in the conversation or normal.

0:04:25.890 --> 0:04:28.580
<v Speaker 3>Give the other person a chance to speak. You just

0:04:28.640 --> 0:04:31.700
<v Speaker 3>talk too much. And I could barely even eat my food.

0:04:31.740 --> 0:04:32.720
<v Speaker 3>You were talking so much.

0:04:32.920 --> 0:04:34.500
<v Speaker 2>Look, to be honest, I'm trying to be polite here

0:04:34.540 --> 0:04:36.460
<v Speaker 2>and not make you talk so much. But if you

0:04:36.480 --> 0:04:38.520
<v Speaker 2>feel like you can't talk while you eat, then that's

0:04:38.620 --> 0:04:40.620
<v Speaker 2>on you. You know, you know what, guys? I really

0:04:40.640 --> 0:04:42.780
<v Speaker 2>regret reaching out to you guys and wasting your time.

0:04:42.940 --> 0:04:43.200
<v Speaker 3>Amen.

0:04:43.500 --> 0:04:44.000
<v Speaker 1>It's all right.

0:04:44.200 --> 0:04:46.779
<v Speaker 3>Okay, it wasn't just the accent. It's also just that, like,

0:04:46.820 --> 0:04:48.670
<v Speaker 3>you would not stop talking.

0:04:48.690 --> 0:04:51.570
<v Speaker 2>I don't understand women, you know? They get mad when

0:04:51.589 --> 0:04:53.970
<v Speaker 2>men don't talk. They get mad when we do talk.

0:04:54.029 --> 0:04:55.230
<v Speaker 2>What do women want these days?

0:04:55.630 --> 0:04:57.029
<v Speaker 4>We don't even know, to be honest.

0:04:57.070 --> 0:04:59.870
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, we don't. For real. Maybe don't be so self-centered

0:04:59.930 --> 0:05:02.490
<v Speaker 3>and ask me some questions about, I don't know, me?

0:05:02.510 --> 0:05:02.589
<v Speaker 1>What?

0:05:02.970 --> 0:05:03.630
<v Speaker 3>Okay. He hung up.

0:05:03.630 --> 0:05:05.250
<v Speaker 2>He could find a loudmouth woman here in Texas, by

0:05:05.270 --> 0:05:07.150
<v Speaker 2>the way. You don't have to move, Danny, if you're

0:05:07.230 --> 0:05:27.050
<v Speaker 2>still listening. They're out there. Yeah, they are.

0:05:27.140 --> 0:05:27.730
<v Speaker 1>There's a lot of them.

0:05:28.050 --> 0:05:30.049
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, he hung up, which is always kind of weird

0:05:30.270 --> 0:05:32.190
<v Speaker 4>when they call us and then they hang up before

0:05:32.210 --> 0:05:34.250
<v Speaker 4>we actually get an answer. But I guess he felt

0:05:34.290 --> 0:05:36.570
<v Speaker 4>like he got the answer there and you're probably, you

0:05:36.890 --> 0:05:39.050
<v Speaker 4>two just are never going to have anything in common, Hope.

0:05:39.390 --> 0:05:42.450
<v Speaker 3>No, we're never having a second date. It's just, he's

0:05:42.550 --> 0:05:43.770
<v Speaker 3>too much. It's too much.

0:05:44.070 --> 0:05:47.760
<v Speaker 1>There's no hope with hope. It's not going to happen. Wow, really? What?

0:05:47.779 --> 0:05:48.320
<v Speaker 2>With a joke?

0:05:48.520 --> 0:05:49.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I was waiting for that.
