Speaker 1: Second date, up date. I want everyone in studio and
Speaker 1: driving to close their eyes right now.
Speaker 2: Jesse.
Speaker 1: Now, if you're driving, just think out of all the
Speaker 1: places in the world, where would be the worst to
Speaker 1: have a first date.
Speaker 2: You're taking me somewhere nice?
Speaker 1: Maybe next to an active volcano.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's pretty bad, kind of romantic.
Speaker 1: Inside of an off brand Hooters off best called Alley's,
Speaker 1: or maybe the radioactive playground at Chernobyl.
Speaker 3: Oh oh, my date has three eyeballs if it's swing
Speaker 3: moved by itself and one of our listeners says he
Speaker 3: wishes he could have had his first date somewhere else,
Speaker 3: but unfortunately he didn't really have a choice, and now
Speaker 3: he needs our help.
Speaker 1: Let's talk to Steve about it. Steve, welcome to the show.
Speaker 4: Hey, thanks you guys for having me.
Speaker 5: God.
Speaker 2: I love when dates go wrong and people put blame
Speaker 2: on something bigger than themselves. I appreciate that. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: I appreciate that.
Speaker 3: Seat.
Speaker 1: What was the name of the the woman that you
Speaker 1: went out with?
Speaker 4: I went out with Julie.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm always just assuming these days that you met
Speaker 2: on an app.
Speaker 4: We did, Yeah, we we matched about two months ago,
Speaker 4: but our schedules just wouldn't match you up, okay, coming up?
Speaker 4: And we finally settled on a date and suddenly the
Speaker 4: day before I got dramatically sick.
Speaker 2: No, no, did it feels like the universe is telling
Speaker 2: you not to go out with Julia?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Right right, but like so bad I ended up in
Speaker 4: the hospital.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, are you okay? Now you're okay?
Speaker 5: Now?
Speaker 1: Right?
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I'm good.
Speaker 1: Now okay, you said dramatically were you acting?
Speaker 2: I mean, that's the thing. From Julie's standpoint, it'd be
Speaker 2: hard to believe that after a few months of like.
Speaker 1: And then like, now I'm in the hospital.
Speaker 4: Well yeah, so this is what happens. I messengered the
Speaker 4: night before to cancel and I kind of explained why,
Speaker 4: and her response was, well, I'll come visit you.
Speaker 2: What she was trying to call your bluff.
Speaker 4: That might have been part of it, obviously, like I
Speaker 4: wasn't bluffing, But all I was thinking is like, this
Speaker 4: is like easily the worst I've ever looked.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, did you agree to have her come visit you?
Speaker 4: I told her no, let's please do another day. Yeah,
Speaker 4: but She's like, I don't care. I want to come
Speaker 4: and see you.
Speaker 1: Oh. Now I'm thinking what Alexis said, Like she doesn't believe.
Speaker 2: You that you sorry to hang out with someone sick you.
Speaker 1: Would want to do an So did she show up?
Speaker 4: She showed up?
Speaker 2: What did you do to prep for that? You're like, hey,
Speaker 2: can I have a washcloth to wash my face? Like
Speaker 2: you're not showered?
Speaker 1: That's what I would do. I want to get the fancy,
Speaker 1: fancy hospital gown on.
Speaker 2: Extra pudding or whatever. I mean, what was that moment
Speaker 2: like when she walked in the room.
Speaker 4: I mean, part of it was like, oh, this is cool,
Speaker 4: we're finally seeing each other. The other part of it
Speaker 4: was just like me being purely mortified.
Speaker 1: And it sucks if you ever get excited on the date,
Speaker 1: like you can't hide it because the heart monitor is
Speaker 1: going to be like.
Speaker 6: B b b by, she's beautiful and it's like your
Speaker 6: heart's going crazy?
Speaker 1: Are very thin? Disgusting? I'm sorry about that. How did
Speaker 1: it go?
Speaker 4: So? I mean it was it was nice, It was sweet.
Speaker 4: She showed up with a gift. It was a book
Speaker 4: of like a hundred unbelievable.
Speaker 1: Facts because she didn't believe that you were.
Speaker 5: Good.
Speaker 1: Liked that's a nice gesture.
Speaker 4: Yeah, something to help pass the time in that we
Speaker 4: split a hospital meal together in my room.
Speaker 2: Okay, insurance. I mean, were you able to hold a
Speaker 2: conversation with her? I don't know how sick you were.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean we you know, we were like she
Speaker 4: read some of like the facts in the book and
Speaker 4: we talked about that. The most embarrassing thing was like
Speaker 4: the staff was kind of like harassing me about like
Speaker 4: if she was my girlfriend. You know, they were doing
Speaker 4: the whole like, ooh is this your girlfriend?
Speaker 2: So that probably was kind of awkward. How long did
Speaker 2: she stay for?
Speaker 4: I mean it was a couple of hours? Wow, Yeah,
Speaker 4: she told them it was actually our first date. The
Speaker 4: nurses then like went and took some flowers from like
Speaker 4: a dead lady's room.
Speaker 7: Oh could you just be'd be a vacant room?
Speaker 1: Okay, it has the condolence's note still on it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 2: So was there any like, I mean besides them giving
Speaker 2: you a hard time and being funny, was there like
Speaker 2: a spark? It'd be hard to have some sort of
Speaker 2: like just make chemistry in that situation.
Speaker 4: So I thought we had a good time, and I
Speaker 4: thought the experience like kind of bonded us very unique
Speaker 4: you know for sure, and that like one hundred percent
Speaker 4: we would go out again. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean, if she's willing to come and visit you
Speaker 1: on a first date while your bedridden in the hospital,
Speaker 1: that speaks volumes about like where she thinks this relationship could.
Speaker 2: Go wild to me to think that you haven't been
Speaker 2: in contact or gotten another date with her, And how.
Speaker 1: Could she complain like, oh, he wasn't that funny? Yeah,
Speaker 1: you were in the hospital.
Speaker 5: What did she say?
Speaker 1: How long ago was that?
Speaker 4: So that was it was a few weeks ago.
Speaker 1: Oh okay, And we've.
Speaker 4: Been texting up until this past week and now she's
Speaker 4: like hardly responding at all. Huh, And like I'm out
Speaker 4: of the hospital. I was hoping to see her for
Speaker 4: a normal date And honestly, I just don't know what
Speaker 4: the deal is. And the only thing I can think
Speaker 4: is maybe I really did look like I was in
Speaker 4: as bad of shape as I was.
Speaker 2: That's understandable. And you were texting after if.
Speaker 1: You take a really cold person to come into a
Speaker 1: hospital and like you hospital, or maybe she got sick
Speaker 1: with whatever you had, and now she's in the hospital,
Speaker 1: you're gonna have to do your second date.
Speaker 2: There have options for him, and none of them are
Speaker 2: your fault so far.
Speaker 1: That's so we're going to come back. We're going to
Speaker 1: call Julie for you and try and get you your
Speaker 1: second date update right after this.
Speaker 4: All right, thank you so much.
Speaker 1: Hold on second date update. I'm just super glad that
Speaker 1: Steve pulled through and made it all Steve, and we
Speaker 1: got to get him back. Get I'm here, ready, clear, clear,
Speaker 1: because your timing is really off on this doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: We saved them. Second day back up and running with
Speaker 1: our listener Steve, who is fully alive and his first
Speaker 1: date happened in his own hospital bed. But Steve matched
Speaker 1: with Julie a couple months before this. They had to
Speaker 1: keep pushing back their date because their schedules weren't matching up,
Speaker 1: and the night before they were due to meet each other,
Speaker 1: he ended up getting super sick and had to go
Speaker 1: to the hospital.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and so she just wout him back down.
Speaker 1: I'm coming to visit you there, and showed up, brought
Speaker 1: a book for him to read. They shared a meal.
Speaker 2: Together, even told the nurses that it was their first date, so.
Speaker 1: They thought that was super cute, and stole some flowers
Speaker 1: from the deceased to make it extra special for.
Speaker 2: Them, don't it's at that point.
Speaker 1: No, yeah, it doesn't belong to anybody. Yeah, but now
Speaker 1: Steve is better, he is out of the hospital. Except
Speaker 1: he's not getting a call back from Julie anymore.
Speaker 2: Maybe she only liked sick boys.
Speaker 1: You know, have you ever thought of that, Steve?
Speaker 4: You know that must be what it is. I better
Speaker 4: throw myself in front.
Speaker 5: Of the car.
Speaker 2: You have too much color in your cheeks.
Speaker 1: Like, Hey, guys, so did you meet any like super
Speaker 1: sick hot dudes in there? Maybe you need to work
Speaker 1: on your sniffles and your coughs a little bit before
Speaker 1: we reach out. That's a theory.
Speaker 2: I bet there's a I bet there's a good reason
Speaker 2: she's not calling you back.
Speaker 7: We can fix this, I feel like, or, if not
Speaker 7: a good reason, at least a reason whatever it is,
Speaker 7: when you find out, let's call her right now.
Speaker 1: Hello, Hi, we're looking to talk with Julie.
Speaker 5: Yes, this is Julie.
Speaker 1: Hey Julie. You're on a radio show right now called
Speaker 1: Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 2: Hey, Julie, welcome to the show.
Speaker 5: Oh okay, yeah, what's this about?
Speaker 1: This is about a segment we do called a second
Speaker 1: date update a really saucy sexy segment. I should add
Speaker 1: I don't know how it was.
Speaker 2: For you, though, probably not, probably not in her case.
Speaker 1: We heard a little bit about a date that you
Speaker 1: went on recently with a guy named Steve. Okay, Steve,
Speaker 1: you know from the hospital Steve.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, I remember.
Speaker 8: Okay, can we just ask did you show up to
Speaker 8: the hospital because you were trying to call him out
Speaker 8: like you thought that he was faking.
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 1: No, oh no, I mean you're just like a genuinely
Speaker 1: caring person. We don't.
Speaker 5: I mean I was a little bit worried about him
Speaker 5: because we had become friends talking online.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, you had a couple of months of like
Speaker 1: chemistry and that's good. So what did you think of
Speaker 1: Steve when you saw him?
Speaker 7: I r L I mean that, yeah, the interaction with
Speaker 7: with old Steve over there.
Speaker 5: I mean I was, I was liking him.
Speaker 2: It's good.
Speaker 5: I just I don't know if it's going to work out.
Speaker 5: And uh, it has nothing to do with him.
Speaker 2: So it has nothing to do with him. What does
Speaker 2: it have to do with sorry to pry, Yeah, I
Speaker 2: mean he's curious.
Speaker 5: I had a friendly ghost appear like a Casper situation.
Speaker 1: Haunting, No Casper situation.
Speaker 5: It's like when there's a guy that you've been seeing,
Speaker 5: we think you have future plans with suddenly ghosts and
Speaker 5: stop talking to you. And then he's on your d
Speaker 5: ms on Instagram and then you know he likes your stories,
Speaker 5: but like he doesn't say anything to you, and why
Speaker 5: would you.
Speaker 2: Put any energy into that.
Speaker 8: I mean, obviously those guys always come back around as
Speaker 8: they can like sniff out that you have somebody interested
Speaker 8: in you.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Brook, speaking from personal experience, he's definitely gone back.
Speaker 1: They're the guys haunted.
Speaker 8: Let me tell you, They're the guys that only want
Speaker 8: you when they can't have you.
Speaker 5: Well, I thought he was really cool and we dated
Speaker 5: for a couple of weeks and he's supplying coffee for
Speaker 5: different places and businesses and I love coffee.
Speaker 1: And you're still dating this guy and love his coffee.
Speaker 1: That's why she's not dating him. He's just like floating
Speaker 1: around her Instagram.
Speaker 2: So you're you're just putting Yeah, you're putting Steve off
Speaker 2: because you want to keep the door open for coffee boy.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I know that sounds kind of rude, but if you
Speaker 5: want to sum it up that way. I guess it's true.
Speaker 1: So he's this other guy. He's just like liking your
Speaker 1: Insta stories and things like that. Has he actually said
Speaker 1: anything to you?
Speaker 5: No, he just wants me to know that he sees me.
Speaker 2: No, this guy sucks. You need to run from this.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we need to get some backup on this too.
Speaker 1: And we actually do have like a friendly ghost who's
Speaker 1: floating on the other phone line right now. His name
Speaker 1: is actually Steve.
Speaker 2: Oh, he's a real person.
Speaker 1: What what? Yeah, the way the segment works is we
Speaker 1: have Steve waiting on the other line, listening to the conversation,
Speaker 1: waiting to jump in. Yeah, I mean, little scared Steve
Speaker 1: be there.
Speaker 4: I am so confused right now. So you're basically ghosting
Speaker 4: me for a friendly ghost.
Speaker 3: It's a.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I guess that's one way to put it.
Speaker 4: Oh, I mean that is how you put it.
Speaker 5: Hey, I did not mean to hurt your feelings, but
Speaker 5: I'm in a weird situation and I don't know what
Speaker 5: to do.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so you don't dislike me. You actually like me though.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I think you're a good person.
Speaker 1: But here's the thing, Julius, but you don't distribute coffee
Speaker 1: to a bunch of businesses.
Speaker 8: So you haven't seen and hung out with Steve outside
Speaker 8: of a hospital bed. I mean, if you can walk
Speaker 8: away from a hospital room on a first date and
Speaker 8: say that was really great, can you imagine what it
Speaker 8: would be like if you were pulling full health.
Speaker 5: Like I said before, this isn't really about Steve. This
Speaker 5: is about this friendly ghost that I'm dealing with, and
Speaker 5: I'm kind of waiting around to see how it plays out.
Speaker 1: Sounds like you're dealing with a ghost problem. And it's
Speaker 1: not even the dead lady from the hospital whose flowers
Speaker 1: magically ended up in your room. That's a totally different
Speaker 1: ghost who's been looming around. There's a lot of.
Speaker 2: Ghosts in the second it's haunted.
Speaker 4: I'm just wondering, like if I was to hang around
Speaker 4: on your Instagram and like a bunch of your stories
Speaker 4: and then after I did shoot for a while, like
Speaker 4: that's something you would like?
Speaker 5: No, ew, No, that's creepy.
Speaker 4: What is literally the difference between me doing it and
Speaker 4: this other guy?
Speaker 5: Well, he's my ex, Like you and I haven't been
Speaker 5: anything real enough for you to friendly ghost me, Like
Speaker 5: you just be a creepy ghost.
Speaker 1: Wants to be creepy ghosts.
Speaker 4: What if I ended up in the hospital again, who's
Speaker 4: gonna come and see me?
Speaker 2: Strategy? Come on, Steve, is funny.
Speaker 1: You could bring the guy with the coffee business over
Speaker 1: to the hospital and take him there. Why turn him
Speaker 1: into a real ghost, like, oh my god, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: don't know.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I keep thinking the only time the coffee guy's
Speaker 2: gonna call you is when he's sad and lonely.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a perfect place to get really sad.
Speaker 8: I just gotta hold out.
Speaker 4: So I'm just I'm just supposed to wait for this
Speaker 4: guy to fully ghost you again before.
Speaker 5: Well he's not. He's not going to fully ghost me.
Speaker 1: This is the time. Okay, have you actually talked to
Speaker 1: him yet?
Speaker 5: Not yet, but he's getting closer.
Speaker 1: But Steve, I know that you're trying really hard here
Speaker 1: to get Julie bad, But it sounds like this doesn't
Speaker 1: have anything to do with you. This is totally her deal.
Speaker 1: She's just trying to figure her own stuff out.
Speaker 2: So and I mean, honestly, she's gonna be single for.
Speaker 1: A while, so it's probably pointless for me to even
Speaker 1: ask this question, But I'm gonna do it. Anyway because
Speaker 1: there's a ghost whispering in my ear to do it.
Speaker 1: He's saying, you and Steve should go out on another
Speaker 1: day and we'll pay for it.
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 2: I don't know as close to yes.
Speaker 4: Sorry, I'm sorry. I just this is all very the end, Like,
Speaker 4: I don't mean to rush you, Julie, but I've got
Speaker 4: an ambulance on the other line. They just want to
Speaker 4: know where I'm at.
Speaker 1: Dated in the hospital again.
Speaker 5: I just don't think it'd be fair to you, Steve,
Speaker 5: like I'm not in this situation.
Speaker 2: Okay, I mean that's honesty right there.
Speaker 1: Okay, I'm sorry, man, this isn't going to work out.
Speaker 1: We're not going to be able to get you a
Speaker 1: second date.
Speaker 4: This is okay. I'd rather deal with this now than
Speaker 4: like if we were dating.
Speaker 2: That's true, that's true. That's a good attitude.
Speaker 1: Don't give up, hope, man, Try to haunt her in
Speaker 1: a month or two.
Speaker 5: And then.
Speaker 4: I know I know the game plan now.
Speaker 1: A couple of months, man, good luck.
Speaker 5: Don't do that, Steve. I told you it's creepy, okay.
Speaker 1: Looking Jeffrey in the morning, I've never heard the dating
Speaker 1: term friendly ghost before. Like being caspired where if you
Speaker 1: missed it, that's where a former love interest who ghosts
Speaker 1: you comes back and is quietly hanging around your like
Speaker 1: Instagram and Insta stories, liking things, just to make sure
Speaker 1: that you know they're there.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna tell you this has been happening long
Speaker 2: before Instagram was even invented. Okay, totally.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you were friendly ghosting people by hanging outside of
Speaker 1: their work.
Speaker 2: No, it's just like those exes.
Speaker 6: You know.
Speaker 2: Everybody has those exes that just like linger. Yeah, and
Speaker 2: they don't do it because they want anything, They just
Speaker 2: want control.
Speaker 1: Well, jose you mentioned saying like, oh this is me,
Speaker 1: how many haunts would you say that you're currently doing
Speaker 1: at the moment. I think me and a lot of
Speaker 1: girls were haunting each other back where you're like you like,
Speaker 1: but no one's like actually said high yet.
Speaker 3: So it's like I see you and then like they
Speaker 3: go on a date and you like that and oh
Speaker 3: that's petty.
Speaker 1: Yeah, because we've been liking each other. I didn't even
Speaker 1: know two ghosts could haunt each other. I didn't know
Speaker 1: either till today.
Speaker 2: Supernatural world is hard.
Speaker 1: We're more attuned to what's going on in the real
Speaker 1: world with real people, So if you have an issue
Speaker 1: with that in your dating life, we can try and help.
