Speaker 1: Second data to day. Do traumatic experiences really bond people
Speaker 1: closer together? I think they do. Yeah, I mean, which
Speaker 1: is why I constantly try to traumatize our listeners every
Speaker 1: single day's work. That way, they feel closer to us
Speaker 1: and they keep on listening and become attached in an
Speaker 1: almost unhealthy way. Yeah, that's my goal for the fans
Speaker 1: of this show. Tratize out there because we love you.
Speaker 1: And one of our listeners says she went through a
Speaker 1: dramatic experience recently and I can't wait to hear what
Speaker 1: that was. So Nicole, welcome to the show. And is
Speaker 1: the dramatic experience listening to us in the morning? Is
Speaker 1: that what you're talking about? No, that always frightens my day. Actually,
Speaker 1: we're not doing our jobs. Then, I just wanted you
Speaker 1: to scream in response to Jeffrey. Just there there it is.
Speaker 1: That's what we want. Yeah, you said it frightens your day, right,
Speaker 1: not brighton? There you go. Yeah, that's it. That's okay. Perfect. Now,
Speaker 1: So tell us about the guy that you ended up
Speaker 1: meeting during this traumatic experience. What happened totally? What happened? Well,
Speaker 1: it kind of feels cliche, like something from a sitcom.
Speaker 1: I don't know. We actually got stuck in an elevator together,
Speaker 1: like one of those parking garage elevators up to a business.
Speaker 1: Oh god, it was up to a business because the
Speaker 1: public ones kind of smell like you're in and the
Speaker 1: elevator stopped by itself or did you hit like a
Speaker 1: button to make it stop because you noticed he was cute?
Speaker 1: Oh no I did. I was no, no, no, it
Speaker 1: just stopped on itself. We had like barely lifted off
Speaker 1: the floor, and it just kind of quote, oh god,
Speaker 1: how are you feeling when that happened? You know, it
Speaker 1: was not fun. I mean at first I was just like, Okay,
Speaker 1: it's a little hiccup, but then it just stayed not moving.
Speaker 1: You know, how long were you in there? It was
Speaker 1: like close to forty minutes all told. Yeah, yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean I don't really consider myself claustrophobic, but you know,
Speaker 1: those parking garage elevators are pretty small. It was it
Speaker 1: just you and him in the elevator. Were other people
Speaker 1: in there too? No, it was just us too. Okay,
Speaker 1: so you're like at least a hot gentleman, it could
Speaker 1: be worth yeah, yeah, sorry, what was the guy's name
Speaker 1: that you were stuck with. His name was Sean? Okay,
Speaker 1: and how was Sean doing? Was he also pretty scared? No,
Speaker 1: he seemed really chill about it, super calm. Yeah. And
Speaker 1: after a few minutes, I he just kind of like
Speaker 1: introduced himself and was like, oh, you know, we just
Speaker 1: now those happens there all the time. You just pushed
Speaker 1: the call button and wait for help. That's kind of
Speaker 1: a weird thing to say to somebody. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's quite possible he just said that to try to
Speaker 1: make me feel better because he could see the panic
Speaker 1: on my face. Yeah. Yeah, that's nice. Yeah. So yeah,
Speaker 1: so he seemed like a cool person too. Then. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and so he just started asking me about you know,
Speaker 1: ah like where do you live and oh his family clothes,
Speaker 1: tell me about your siblings, you know, just we just
Speaker 1: kind of did he use the whole time? Totally? Yes,
Speaker 1: just like that that's a better idea than what I
Speaker 1: had in my head, like where do you live your
Speaker 1: family film? No, it sounds like he was being like
Speaker 1: just trying to help you relax a little bit and
Speaker 1: think about something besides the fact that you're stuck in
Speaker 1: a multi Yeah, totally. Well, and you have a guy
Speaker 1: who's like asking you questions, interested in learning about you too, like,
Speaker 1: were you guys able to actually kind of hit it off? Well,
Speaker 1: when the elevator finally did start moving, you know, as
Speaker 1: we stepped out, he asked me for my phone number.
Speaker 1: Oh oh that's good, that's right. And we texted the
Speaker 1: next couple of days, back and forth, you know, just
Speaker 1: laughing about the situation. And did he ask you out finally? No,
Speaker 1: he never actually did, but immmm, maybe I overstepped. I
Speaker 1: did say, you know, we should go to a restaurant
Speaker 1: sometime without an elevator, you know, that's fun. Yeah. What
Speaker 1: what was his response? Just nothing? Just he's totally ghosted
Speaker 1: me since then. Oh well, maybe he just didn't see
Speaker 1: it the same way did you. I mean, did you
Speaker 1: find out is he single? No? I didn't get any
Speaker 1: like relationship details from him. I just assumed he was
Speaker 1: single at the time because he asked for my number.
Speaker 1: But looking back, you know, I wonder if maybe he
Speaker 1: is in a relationship or even married, and maybe thought
Speaker 1: he could, like I don't know, have a little thing
Speaker 1: on the side. And then you had forty minutes to
Speaker 1: check out and see if there was a ring, so
Speaker 1: single minded focus on one the situation, and then two
Speaker 1: just trying not to freak out. When most people go
Speaker 1: into survival mode, they're not checking to see if they have,
Speaker 1: like an engagement ring. I think, oh my god, we're married.
Speaker 1: But you know what, we're gonna this is weird that
Speaker 1: he hasn't talked to you. We're gonna play a song.
Speaker 1: We'll come back. We'll call Sean for you. There's a
Speaker 1: chance that he might actually be stuck in another elevator
Speaker 1: because he says it happens to him all the time.
Speaker 1: Maybe he's been in there for a whole week. We're
Speaker 1: going to be the heroes. But well, we'll find out
Speaker 1: in just a minute when we do your second date
Speaker 1: update right after this. Okay, okay, thanks. Hold on, one
Speaker 1: of our listeners Nicole got stuck with a guy in
Speaker 1: an elevator, and we're about to call that guy. But
Speaker 1: she's lucky that she wasn't stuck in an elevator with me,
Speaker 1: because I'd be taken out ceiling tiles, punching a hole
Speaker 1: right through the top of it, and then telling Nicole,
Speaker 1: hop on my back, girl, we're climbing this cable to freedom.
Speaker 1: And afterwards that's worth standing on the rooftop and the
Speaker 1: helicopters about to land and take me off to Antarctica.
Speaker 1: Nicole says, but wait, I don't have your phone number yet.
Speaker 1: And that's when I turn around and I toss her
Speaker 1: a wink and I say, yeah, you do check your contacts.
Speaker 1: It's under mister mystery. I slipped it out of your
Speaker 1: pocket between floors seventeen and eighteen. Don't be a stranger, kid, Boom,
Speaker 1: you're still talking for some reason. The building would exploded
Speaker 1: as you take off in the helicopter. Okay, it happens
Speaker 1: every time. Is the real hero here, Jeffrey? Are mister mystery?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry? Yeah, who's not very who's not very mysterious? Well?
Speaker 1: How optimistic are we here, Nicole? I mean I feel optimistic. Well,
Speaker 1: we were totally engaged, and he don't use that word
Speaker 1: when we talked about might freak him out. I mean,
Speaker 1: I know you're optimistic, but may I remind you he
Speaker 1: hasn't called or texted back in close to a week. Yeah, yes,
Speaker 1: let's pull the fire alarm in the building and call
Speaker 1: this guy here. I am not buying tickets to this movie,
Speaker 1: all right, Here we go let's call Sean and see
Speaker 1: what he has to say. Hello, Hey, are we talking
Speaker 1: to Sean? Oh? Yeah, this is Sean. Who's this? This
Speaker 1: is jeff from the radio show Brooke and Jeffrey in
Speaker 1: the Morning. But some know me as mister mystery. We're
Speaker 1: still doing this, Okay, what's Yeah? I don't want to
Speaker 1: waste your time or anything here, but one of our
Speaker 1: listeners has been trying to get a hold of you
Speaker 1: for like a week now, so we're hoping to connect
Speaker 1: you too. Who are you talking about. It's a woman
Speaker 1: that you got stuck in an elevator with not too
Speaker 1: long ago, named Nicole. Oh. Um, okay, okay, yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: Well we do this thing called a second date update.
Speaker 1: That's what this is. Um, technically this wasn't a date,
Speaker 1: but Nicole was very grateful for what you did for
Speaker 1: her while you were stuck in the elevator together. So
Speaker 1: why I'm on the radio You thought maybe you guys
Speaker 1: had something like you could there was potential there? Did
Speaker 1: she read that right? Maybe? Initially? But like not really?
Speaker 1: I mean, can I ask you did you find her
Speaker 1: attractive at all? Yeah? She's cute, It wasn't It's this
Speaker 1: isn't like a superficial thing. She just the more we
Speaker 1: were in there, she just started confessing things and it
Speaker 1: was just too much. Oh it was a lot. It's
Speaker 1: not like her deathbed, save those she was sharing memories
Speaker 1: with him. What do you mean confessions? I don't know.
Speaker 1: It's her deal. I don't I don't want to air
Speaker 1: out her stuff on the radio. Okay, well that's I mean,
Speaker 1: that's nice of you, but like you don't have to
Speaker 1: tell us the worst stuff that she said there. It
Speaker 1: could be something even little that struck you as being
Speaker 1: a little bit odd, because she knows by doing this
Speaker 1: segment she might hear something that's a little bit embarrassing.
Speaker 1: That's that's that's fair. I mean she did call you, um, yeah,
Speaker 1: something about it. When she was little, she took an
Speaker 1: extra piece of pie at Thanksgiving when her grandma wasn't
Speaker 1: looking like her grandma really wanted that piece of pie.
Speaker 1: It's cute that I didn't really she was such a
Speaker 1: bad person. God, no, wonder you're not calling her. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean that's where it started. Um, it sounds like
Speaker 1: a cute memory, like, yeah, it started from kids stuff
Speaker 1: and then like went progressively older, like she was a
Speaker 1: middle school and she made fun of a kid at
Speaker 1: school that or sweatpants and called him sweaty Scottie. Oh oh,
Speaker 1: I think it was sweaty Scottie. Yeah, it was something
Speaker 1: like that. I mean, it is pretty good. I really
Speaker 1: can't hear anymore that we need to stop here. Oh god, Okay,
Speaker 1: so she's on the line. Yeah, Sean, That's that's kind
Speaker 1: of how this works. We we usually have them waiting
Speaker 1: and we call them in when it's the right time. Usually, Well,
Speaker 1: I just I can't. Um, No, we're not gonna We're
Speaker 1: not gonna share anymore. No, you don't. You just feel
Speaker 1: bad about sweaty Scotty because yeah, I mean, it's just
Speaker 1: it's been on my conscious and I just don't need
Speaker 1: anything else aired right now. But more importantly, I'm just
Speaker 1: I'm confused, Sean, you're not calling me back because I
Speaker 1: was sharing weird stories. What I mean, what was I
Speaker 1: annoying you with them? Or it felt like you might
Speaker 1: have boundary issues? Boundary mean he doesn't she doesn't know
Speaker 1: what not to share or is that what you mean? Yeah?
Speaker 1: And like I don't really know you, but you also
Speaker 1: led with like the worst aspects of yourself according to you,
Speaker 1: So that's not like a great first impression. Real Okay,
Speaker 1: If you think taking pie at Thanksgiving is like the
Speaker 1: worst aspect of somebody, that's pretty heavy. Oh do you
Speaker 1: want me to share more? Or was that enough? That
Speaker 1: was sweaty scotty enough. I mean I kind of want
Speaker 1: you to share more. It doesn't sound that bad. But
Speaker 1: we could talk about the time she sideswiped a part
Speaker 1: car and just didn't leave a note. We could talk
Speaker 1: about that they are getting a little better, if that
Speaker 1: makes sense. That's pretty bad, Sean. If that's how you
Speaker 1: felt about her, and all those confessions turned you off,
Speaker 1: then why did you ask for her number? That's what
Speaker 1: I want to know. I was worried about her. I
Speaker 1: just wanted to make sure she was okay. I'm not
Speaker 1: a monster. I not a monster like she is. But
Speaker 1: I don't I don't understand. And like, why did you
Speaker 1: keep texting me? I mean it was more than just
Speaker 1: hey you okay, it was like three days of text
Speaker 1: I think that's what it really is, Sean. You actually
Speaker 1: like her more than you realize. I did hear you.
Speaker 1: You said you say was cute? Oh I did ask
Speaker 1: you that and you said you thought she was attracted.
Speaker 1: I don't see how that's relevant to her sideswife and
Speaker 1: cars and calling people making well, is that she felt remorseful,
Speaker 1: That's why she was telling you these things. It's not
Speaker 1: like she was like some crazy that didn't feel bad
Speaker 1: about it. We had done bad things, yeah, I agree.
Speaker 1: I agree, It's just you generally find out about those
Speaker 1: things like later after you got to know a person. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but now it's all on the table. Isn't any better
Speaker 1: to have all this information? If this is as bad
Speaker 1: as it gets, do you have any more confessions? I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm made out with the mail room guy at the
Speaker 1: company holiday party one year, and that's not bad. I mean,
Speaker 1: why are we talking about all all the old stories
Speaker 1: from Nicole's pass when what we really need to be
Speaker 1: focusing on is the two of you and the Yeah,
Speaker 1: the relationship I can see forming between you guys. At
Speaker 1: least you guys are really good communicators. It's kind of
Speaker 1: cute and good for the record. I mean, it was
Speaker 1: an extraordinary circumstance. I was a little panicky. I'm sure
Speaker 1: I overshared things that would never normally happen on a
Speaker 1: first date. Yeah, Sean, I think you need to go
Speaker 1: and share these stories during a real first date outside
Speaker 1: of a broken elevator, where it's more appropriate to do it,
Speaker 1: and we want to pay for that date. Well, some
Speaker 1: of the church, they can go to a confessional. Yeah,
Speaker 1: down the road. It's a really funny story that could
Speaker 1: be cute. Yeah, or you say no and you traumatize
Speaker 1: her even more and this is a horrible memory that
Speaker 1: haunts her forever that she's going to get. You want
Speaker 1: to traumatize her, Sean, Is that what you want to do.
Speaker 1: You're putting her on an elevator and you're hitting the
Speaker 1: panic button right now. If you say no, there's no
Speaker 1: pressure here. We really would you guys go out again,
Speaker 1: don't listen to jail or else. It's better to be
Speaker 1: with someone that overshares than doesn't share at all. What
Speaker 1: do you think, Sean, Well, let me ask, do you
Speaker 1: want to go with me? Like a you're you still in? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm totally still in. Okay, Yes, I'm really interested. I
Speaker 1: feel like I shared me. I'd love to know more
Speaker 1: about about you, Sean. I mean it's a yes from
Speaker 1: everybody in the room, but the one that matters is you.
Speaker 1: What do you say, one more chance for Nicole and
Speaker 1: then let's do it. You guys are gonna be cute.
Speaker 1: So what terrible memory are you going to share with her?
Speaker 1: Sean to make her feel better? We'll save that for
Speaker 1: the date. I'm not putting that out on the radio. No,
Speaker 1: I'm under no obligation to do this, Absolutely not. It's
Speaker 1: like we should do a three way call with the
Speaker 1: mail room guy. Let's make this interesting. Now we're getting
Speaker 1: spicy Jeffrey in the morning. You know, I hope that
Speaker 1: guy didn't just say yes because we pressured him into
Speaker 1: doing it, Like, I hope he actually really wanted to
Speaker 1: see Nicold again. You want everything, don't you, jeff Yeah,
Speaker 1: say yes. You want him to feel good about saved. Yes,
Speaker 1: I'm the villain for one. Ultimately, I'm glad that cooler
Speaker 1: heads prevailed because, honestly, they never would have spoken to
Speaker 1: each other ever again if we didn't call. That's true.
Speaker 1: She was wondering, does it say so much about us
Speaker 1: that we didn't think that she did anything that bad
Speaker 1: in her life? Yeah? What is that about our own personality?
Speaker 1: The confessions were not that bad, but it was it
Speaker 1: was nice we get them on the phone, you talk
Speaker 1: it out, you hear both sides. You're reminisce about the
Speaker 1: good times with the mail boy, and next thing you know, boom,
Speaker 1: it's a date. Yeah, simple mail boys always lead to
Speaker 1: a date. Am I right? Is that why Alexis was
Speaker 1: chilling over by the mail room earlier? Doesn't She doesn't
Speaker 1: even know how to mail anything. I was trying to
Speaker 1: learn new things, rock Alexis. Anyway, remember, if you ever
Speaker 1: want us to call somebody for you, try and get
Speaker 1: you a date. Email the show. We'll call that person
Speaker 1: who wasn't calling you back.
