Speaker 1: All right, you're here for a brand new second date
Speaker 1: on the Second Day podcast.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it is another a good place for it to be.
Speaker 2: It's Brook and Jeffrey in the morning. And we asked
Speaker 2: you yesterday. Okay, huge surprise by the third date too
Speaker 2: much or not?
Speaker 3: Yes?
Speaker 1: And we did get some comments. What do we got?
Speaker 2: You guys saw authentic sound said my ex wife gave
Speaker 2: me a phone after two weeks of dating and a
Speaker 2: car after one month.
Speaker 1: Let's just say she's my ex wife now, Oh, but
Speaker 1: you're still driving the cart. He's probably commenting from the phone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Yeah, that's exactly when you got to We love
Speaker 2: when you interact with us on the comments.
Speaker 1: Say whether that's on.
Speaker 2: Spotify or YouTube or you can always text the show
Speaker 2: as well. We have a textboard at seven, eight, five,
Speaker 2: nine to two. So oh and social media at Brook
Speaker 2: and Jeffrey. Yes, all right, there's my spiel. Let's get
Speaker 2: this show started.
Speaker 4: Second Date up Date. I saw a video posted by
Speaker 4: a bridal stylist recently. Really, she talks to brides all
Speaker 4: the time, always asks how they met their husband. What's
Speaker 4: the number one way single people are finding their spouses
Speaker 4: right now? The number one answer she says by far
Speaker 4: is on Hinge, not like Bumble or like specifically his
Speaker 4: She says, Bumble is second. Nobody is on Tinder if
Speaker 4: you're seriously trying to find marriage. Number three was a
Speaker 4: little bit surprising, though, she said College Sweethearts not a
Speaker 4: website like people who actually met in College Sweethearts, people.
Speaker 1: Who met for sugardad.
Speaker 4: It's like the relationship lasted beyond graduation. And then the
Speaker 4: rarest is meeting somebody naturally out in the wild. And
Speaker 4: I don't know if I hear animal noises right now,
Speaker 4: but that's exactly what happened with one of our listeners,
Speaker 4: Chad O, how wild was? It was a lone tiger
Speaker 4: loose in the jungle Roman free till a certain frisky
Speaker 4: feline caught his eye. So let's learn about it.
Speaker 5: Chad.
Speaker 4: Welcome to the show.
Speaker 5: Hey, thanks, Hey.
Speaker 1: You're welcome.
Speaker 6: Chad.
Speaker 1: You sound like a frisky feeling.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's the prowling tiger.
Speaker 1: Still a feline, well, yeah, a.
Speaker 4: Big feeling, sure. And tell us about the girl that
Speaker 4: you met. What's her name?
Speaker 5: Her name is Lucy?
Speaker 4: Okay, and we're out in the wild. Did you meet Lucy?
Speaker 5: I met Lucy at a furniture store.
Speaker 4: Why does that scream awesome? Because like shopping for furniture,
Speaker 4: I could see girls out and about.
Speaker 1: Everyone at the furniture store is married. Yeah, I've never
Speaker 1: stepped in a.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Also they got money because furniture is not she You're
Speaker 4: you're spending a.
Speaker 5: Couple of hundred bucks.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you were.
Speaker 5: You were like a legit store. This wasn't like Assemble
Speaker 5: one of the.
Speaker 4: Nice shots fired at Ikea with that. So how did
Speaker 4: you and Lucy Like, how did that interaction happen in
Speaker 4: the store?
Speaker 5: Well, I was walking around the store. I was just
Speaker 5: there looking to upgrade my place, and I had zeroed
Speaker 5: in on this one sofa. But then Lucy came in
Speaker 5: and was looking at the exact same couch.
Speaker 1: Yeah style our wrestle who for Whoever's going to buy it?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 5: I mean I wish I could have. I mean I
Speaker 5: would have loved to have done that.
Speaker 4: You do the gentleman thing and buy the couch for her.
Speaker 5: I don't have that much money, I'm.
Speaker 4: What was your move?
Speaker 5: The move was just to kind of like what do
Speaker 5: you like about the couch? And then it just kind
Speaker 5: of got to a level where we weren't just talking
Speaker 5: about a couch?
Speaker 1: Well, and eventually.
Speaker 2: You're going to have to spoon on it together to
Speaker 2: see if two people fit.
Speaker 1: That's important.
Speaker 4: That's a really weird way of flirting. I will say,
Speaker 4: I feel like we shouldn't have.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it didn't get too racy. We just kept like
Speaker 5: trying it out. Shocked.
Speaker 1: That's cute though. That's a really organic way to have conversation.
Speaker 4: It is good because you're kind of playing like you're
Speaker 4: a couple already by like shopping together, and it kind
Speaker 4: of like plants that image into your mind in a
Speaker 4: in a subtle way, so.
Speaker 1: That it's important for him to know if women like
Speaker 1: this couch.
Speaker 4: Yeah, were you able to spin it into a date?
Speaker 5: Yeah? It come to find out we both wanted to couch.
Speaker 5: There's salespeople at these high end furniture stores, and so
Speaker 5: it's like, okay, we're both interested in the couch, and
Speaker 5: the guys like this is it? There's just the one couch?
Speaker 4: Yeah, and then you guys started a fight, So what's
Speaker 4: the move.
Speaker 5: I was like, okay, well we both want the couch,
Speaker 5: but if you want me to let you have it,
Speaker 5: then why don't you give me something in return, you know,
Speaker 5: like your phone number.
Speaker 4: Okay, because they also sell beds over here.
Speaker 2: So that's a good way to get her number.
Speaker 1: Did she like that?
Speaker 5: Yeah? I mean good enough to give me the number.
Speaker 5: I mean she got the couch, so yeah.
Speaker 3: The couch.
Speaker 4: Hold up, hold up, you got the number, and now
Speaker 4: she's ghosting you.
Speaker 1: I think they went out out.
Speaker 3: Did you go?
Speaker 5: So? Like? Fast forward to like the next three days,
Speaker 5: and we're texting a lot. I mean like and I
Speaker 5: say that a lot, I mean like fifty times a day?
Speaker 4: Well a day. Wow, you haven't texted anybody fifty times
Speaker 4: in my whole life. I really like each other day.
Speaker 5: So we scheduled a date and then she backed out
Speaker 5: and I wanted to reschedule, and then like she backed
Speaker 5: out again the night before.
Speaker 4: Okay, are you convincing herself not to go on?
Speaker 1: So it's weird that you guys were talking so much
Speaker 1: though via text. I don't know someone who can't say no.
Speaker 1: I would probably give out my number and talk for a.
Speaker 2: Few days to not feel bad, and the couches deliver
Speaker 2: not my home, and then stop text and then you
Speaker 2: finally be over.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, chat, are you feeling like maybe the only
Speaker 4: reason that she said she would like give the number
Speaker 4: and go out on a date was just to get
Speaker 4: the couch. Like that was the whole point of it.
Speaker 5: That thought has crossed my mind. But then there's all
Speaker 5: these texts in between. So then like I did like
Speaker 5: a little recon, I like googled myself and I was like,
Speaker 5: all right, nothing weird came up here.
Speaker 1: That was good. I mean, here's the thing. She gave
Speaker 1: you her number, but she could have easily given you
Speaker 1: a fake number.
Speaker 3: That's true.
Speaker 1: You know, she didn't have to give you her real
Speaker 1: phone number.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's weird that she's backing out all of a sudden.
Speaker 4: We're gonna call Lucy and try and get to the
Speaker 4: bottom of this, because if she says no to going
Speaker 4: out with you, then you deserve that couch.
Speaker 1: In my opinion, that wasn't the deal. It was just
Speaker 1: a phone number.
Speaker 4: Jeff, Oh sorry, that was on you chat. Improve your
Speaker 4: negotiation skills.
Speaker 5: I know I thought it was a fair deal, but
Speaker 5: it turns out not so much.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she followed through.
Speaker 5: But anyway, I need your help and hope you can
Speaker 5: help me out.
Speaker 4: All right, Well, we're going to try our best. We'll
Speaker 4: come back and get you your second date update right
Speaker 4: after this man hold on second date update. I'm not
Speaker 4: a lawyer, but Chad, if we're not successful in getting
Speaker 4: you another date, what about at least getting you visitation
Speaker 4: with the couch? Just like one week doesn't need to
Speaker 4: be much, just one week and a month. Maybe split
Speaker 4: it on holidays. We can negotiate something.
Speaker 2: Yeah sure, Oh you know, shared custody is what you're saying.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, Chad seems to like that idea, because if
Speaker 4: you miss part one. He met Lucy at a furniture
Speaker 4: store recently when they both liked the same exact couch,
Speaker 4: but he generously let her have it if in exchange
Speaker 4: she gave him his number.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean that was the deal that they made.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it was a smooth move. But she keeps backing
Speaker 4: out of dates now and now their initial flame has
Speaker 4: pretty much gone completely ice cold.
Speaker 1: Yeah, they're losing chemistry fast.
Speaker 4: So we he doesn't know why, we need to try
Speaker 4: and help figure it out.
Speaker 1: Can I ask? Had the one thing?
Speaker 2: I never you know, we never really got into you
Speaker 2: said you guys texted back and forth a ton. Was
Speaker 2: there any like inappropriate texting or something that could have
Speaker 2: or could have been read wrong. Even you know, sometimes
Speaker 2: you said something thinking you're joking and the other person doesn't.
Speaker 1: Read it right.
Speaker 4: Can you read some inappropriate text to broke right now?
Speaker 4: She really want to hear something.
Speaker 2: Is there something that stands out in all of those
Speaker 2: conversations that you had?
Speaker 5: No, I mean it was flirty, but without crossing the line.
Speaker 5: It's the way I think about it. Asked about the couch,
Speaker 5: you know, it was.
Speaker 4: How's how's the couch doing?
Speaker 3: Is it?
Speaker 4: Okay?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: I think he really did that though.
Speaker 4: That's what he said.
Speaker 1: Okay. He laughed like he was going to be an innuendo,
Speaker 1: like the couch.
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 4: No, he like, how's the couch doing?
Speaker 1: How I heard it? Okay?
Speaker 4: See this is what text messaging is like right now.
Speaker 4: You can't tell tone.
Speaker 2: If someone hows the couch ha ha ha, I would.
Speaker 4: Not all right, chat, it's okay, let's call Lucy and uh,
Speaker 4: hopefully it's not what we were talking about earlier too,
Speaker 4: where it was just all a big scam so that
Speaker 4: she could get the couch have him back off again,
Speaker 4: because it is very smart and your fall if that's
Speaker 4: the case.
Speaker 1: Scam, Yeah, I.
Speaker 4: Mean she just said, oh, well, thank you and smiled
Speaker 4: and gave your number. That's all that you asked.
Speaker 1: There's no one in the room that wouldn't agree with that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, let's hope.
Speaker 5: That the case. Then I don't know why she would
Speaker 5: even agree to go out with me at the start
Speaker 5: of it.
Speaker 1: It's a good point.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's true. So hopefully there's an explanation. Let me
Speaker 4: dial her number right now. Let's see if she picks up.
Speaker 4: Here we go, Hello, Hey, we're looking to speak with Lucy.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, we're a radio show called Brook and Jeffrey
Speaker 4: in the Morning.
Speaker 1: Hey, hey, Lucy, your morning. You're on the show, Lucy.
Speaker 5: Okay, what's this about.
Speaker 1: It's our couch reviews segment in a way.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because we're doing a segment called second Date Update.
Speaker 3: What is that?
Speaker 4: Uh, oh, you don't know what that is. It's a
Speaker 4: segment we do where if someone's in like a dating
Speaker 4: scenario and a person blows you off or you're not
Speaker 4: getting back to them, we'll reach out on behalf of
Speaker 4: that person to try and figure out if there's a
Speaker 4: reason for it, just to like help them understand what's
Speaker 4: going on.
Speaker 1: And this one's kind of out of the norm because
Speaker 1: you never actually went on a first.
Speaker 4: Date, right, Yeah, because we're talking about a guy named Chad.
Speaker 3: Are you.
Speaker 4: Sorry?
Speaker 1: Response, We don't need to explain more like couch guy.
Speaker 4: You know exactly who we're talking about. Yeah, we are
Speaker 4: not you. Chad says that you guys met at a
Speaker 4: furniture store and you exchange numbers.
Speaker 1: It seemed like there was like some flirtation there. Did
Speaker 1: he read that right?
Speaker 3: I mean, yeah, but I have a good reason for it.
Speaker 3: But it would just be super uncomfortable to tell him, Oh,
Speaker 3: you have.
Speaker 1: A good reason for not calling him back or going
Speaker 1: on the date.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because he said that you guys had scheduled dates
Speaker 4: and you kept bailing.
Speaker 3: Yes, I did bail.
Speaker 4: Wait can I ask her just blunt like, did you
Speaker 4: scammer boy?
Speaker 2: Did you just get I think the question is did
Speaker 2: you ever have any intention of actually going on a date?
Speaker 4: Okay, then now let me ask did you ever have
Speaker 4: any intention of actually going on a date?
Speaker 3: Edited so I sound smarter? Yeah, I mean I wasn't
Speaker 3: to go on a date with him.
Speaker 6: I didn't.
Speaker 3: Oh, okay, I didn't.
Speaker 6: Have a problem with him. It was just like I
Speaker 6: got the whole couch thing. And then a few days
Speaker 6: after I met Chad, I came back to the furniture
Speaker 6: place with some of my friends to pick up the
Speaker 6: couch because one of my friends was a pickup truck whatever.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, you got to have a friend with the
Speaker 4: truck delivery. Yeah you have not every one could afford
Speaker 4: two thousands. I probably would have got it.
Speaker 1: Jeff doesn't have truck guys in his friend.
Speaker 4: He's like, I just have one of my assistants to
Speaker 4: make me a new couch.
Speaker 1: Do you want me to come by with my escalade?
Speaker 4: So you guys know how it works. Yeah, okay, you
Speaker 4: went to the store to pick it up yourself.
Speaker 1: Yeah, with some friends. And then what happened?
Speaker 3: Yeah? So I went inside to pay and who do
Speaker 3: I see?
Speaker 5: Sad?
Speaker 1: Why is that that?
Speaker 5: Wait?
Speaker 1: You need to couch?
Speaker 4: Yeah, you took the couch that he wanted to buy,
Speaker 4: so he probably had to get a new one.
Speaker 3: Okay, No, he wasn't like shopping. He was asleep on
Speaker 3: one of the couches, like in the back room area.
Speaker 3: I didn't even know what to do. He didn't see me,
Speaker 3: Like he was asleep, he didn't see me.
Speaker 1: Maybe he was just trying to couch out too hard.
Speaker 4: Yeah, no, way too hard.
Speaker 3: It was so awkward. So I was just gonna leave,
Speaker 3: but I just asked the cashier. I was like, Hey,
Speaker 3: what's the deal with that guy on the great couch
Speaker 3: And he's like, Oh, that's the Snapper. But like he
Speaker 3: just said it, like it's a nickname.
Speaker 4: The nap. The Knapper is.
Speaker 3: What Yeah, they called him the napper?
Speaker 1: The Napper Okay, so he got a nickname for him.
Speaker 3: Yeah. So like apparently he comes in during his lunch
Speaker 3: break and he takes off his shoes and he takes
Speaker 3: a literal nap.
Speaker 4: No, oh, he comes in that often.
Speaker 3: He said that the boss, like the manager lets him
Speaker 3: do it because like once a month he buys all
Speaker 3: the employees' lunch.
Speaker 5: They let him do it.
Speaker 4: Oh wow, that's a hack.
Speaker 1: So he's sleeping during his lunch break.
Speaker 4: What's going through your mind as they're telling you this, Lucy,
Speaker 4: I don't.
Speaker 3: Want to go out with the Napper, like, especially that
Speaker 3: he has a nickname.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he liked it. Catch you were on. He's
Speaker 1: tried them all out at the store. Yeah, Like you
Speaker 1: just happened to be talking to the expert and he
Speaker 1: has a house like he just goes during his lunch.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, makes money. But you're turned off by the
Speaker 4: idea of a guy who spends every lunch break going
Speaker 4: into a nap store and hanging out a nap store. Well, sorry, sorry,
Speaker 4: furniture store, and earn earned a reputation as a napper.
Speaker 2: Honestly though, rebranding a furniture store to the nap store, so.
Speaker 4: Well, then everybody's gonna be doing it.
Speaker 1: I think you should give him a second chance on
Speaker 1: that line.
Speaker 4: I think you should at least hear him out on
Speaker 4: what he has to say, Lucy, because he is on
Speaker 4: the other line right now listening, unless he fell asleep
Speaker 4: in his NEI so chatty there, Yeah, I'm here.
Speaker 5: Hi, yeah, Hi.
Speaker 3: Chat is so weird that you have a reputation of
Speaker 3: the guy who naps in public?
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't understand what the big deal is.
Speaker 3: I mean, it's like going into a subway and making
Speaker 3: your own sandwich.
Speaker 5: You just don't do that. If I could go into
Speaker 5: some way and make my own sandwich, I do it.
Speaker 5: But I mean it. I mean it's right near my work.
Speaker 5: They have nice employees, obviously, they have really comfy furniture,
Speaker 5: so they get new furniture in I get to test
Speaker 5: like the couches, and I know which ones are like
Speaker 5: the softest and the best. And that's why I was like,
Speaker 5: you're it in on the one you bought?
Speaker 6: You nap on the couch that I bought.
Speaker 5: So yeah, I wanted to buy it. I told you
Speaker 5: it was soft. The skin cells are gross. We're going
Speaker 5: to go on a date. I mean, you probably have
Speaker 5: your tongue in my mouth?
Speaker 1: Whoa too much? A good nap is really good life.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the way I live. Man.
Speaker 4: We're not talking about if naps are good or not.
Speaker 4: We're talking about if Lucy is attracted to a man
Speaker 4: who does that.
Speaker 2: I don't understand much that he has a moniker, his
Speaker 2: own nicknacks. I still haven't heard a solid reason, Lucy,
Speaker 2: why this is a turnoff.
Speaker 4: Explain it to Chad.
Speaker 5: Guys, it's weird and it's embarrassing.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's only the Kyle guy who knows about it,
Speaker 1: you know.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're not going on dates at the at your store.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 6: If you really aren't that embarrassed by why didn't you
Speaker 6: say that when we met?
Speaker 3: Why weren't you like, Hey, I really like this couch.
Speaker 3: I've been sleeping on.
Speaker 5: It for the last three weeks. Maybe I should have.
Speaker 5: You know, that's weird, Coach.
Speaker 4: That doesn't sound right.
Speaker 1: You guys sound like you actually have some chemistry here.
Speaker 1: I don't think that you should let this like get
Speaker 1: in the way.
Speaker 4: And if you're willing to not let it get in
Speaker 4: the way, then I guess we're willing to pay for
Speaker 4: it for your next date.
Speaker 6: No, because if I like him, now I'm dating the napper,
Speaker 6: and I just don't want to do that.
Speaker 1: But he's resourceful, he's friendly, you know.
Speaker 4: He knows where tongues go, and hopefully he has enough
Speaker 4: money to get your couch officially clean too, Lucy, with
Speaker 4: all those dead skin cells that he's left on.
Speaker 1: I would be more worried about the slobbery.
Speaker 3: Bros.
Speaker 5: Hey, look, I just want to let you know I
Speaker 5: did not leave any residue on your couch.
Speaker 4: We have to say it, girl, I talked to I
Speaker 4: did not leave residue on your couch. Looking Jeffrey in
Speaker 4: the morning, you know, it was interesting to hear broken
Speaker 4: Alexis's take on that.
Speaker 1: Why you were so anti.
Speaker 4: I'm not anti. I'm just saying it felt like it though, Yeah,
Speaker 4: well it was just if it was me and I
Speaker 4: walked into a store and I saw the person that
Speaker 4: I was scheduled to date sleeping there, and I found
Speaker 4: out all of the employees know that person as the sleeper.
Speaker 1: Trade it was.
Speaker 4: It's still that would be like, this is kind of weird.
Speaker 4: I would take a step back and reassess it's because.
Speaker 1: We've all slept and taken naps in our car before.
Speaker 1: He's actually taking a one up from us.
Speaker 5: But do you know if he.
Speaker 2: Didn't a yeah, do you know what we didn't ask
Speaker 2: those if he was an ugly sleeper, because.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I also didn't really understand Brooks point that she'd
Speaker 4: saddle up next to him and spoon him.
Speaker 1: That was the testing out of the couch. That's what
Speaker 1: my husband I do.
Speaker 2: We need to know if we both fit on the
Speaker 2: couch together when we walked on TV.
Speaker 4: That's that's really sweet.
Speaker 1: What isn't that important?
Speaker 4: I see, It's just when I'm looking at the textport
Speaker 4: seventy five nine two, it is split. Some people thought
Speaker 4: that it was weird. Some people are like, that's awesome,
Speaker 4: good for that guy.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Eddie buys the employees lunch. Yeah, they're taking taking
Speaker 1: advantage of them.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's why they let it. Let's normalize napping.
Speaker 1: And random Yeah, we're on board there.
Speaker 4: You see Brooke to sleep at old maybe today.
Speaker 5: Do not judge.
Speaker 4: She wants you to cuddle up right next time.
Speaker 1: Put one of those scarves around now.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but gosh, I had all of our second date updates.
Speaker 4: Where you get your podcasts are available online?
Speaker 2: Have broken Jefferson, Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning
