Speaker 1: Second day. It's a well documented fact on this show
Speaker 1: that Brooke does not respect people who ride the bus. Kid.
Speaker 1: I don't want to say that she thinks they're beneath her.
Speaker 1: She just definitely doesn't think that they're on her level.
Speaker 1: That's probably the best way to put it. I feel
Speaker 1: like Jeffrey is always putting his own feelings on me. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm just saying I'm a little bit worried for this
Speaker 1: call because we have a woman on the phone who
Speaker 1: apparently rides the bus to work all the time. And
Speaker 1: I know it's probably too much for me to ask
Speaker 1: you to be non judgmental doing this, but can you
Speaker 1: at least try and keep it civil and not spit
Speaker 1: on the floor when I say her name, although you
Speaker 1: know what, there is probably usually spit and bodily fluids
Speaker 1: on the floor of the bus, So maybe make her
Speaker 1: feel like she's at home. Very true. Let's welcome Tricia
Speaker 1: to the show. Tricia, how you doing? I'm doing well?
Speaker 1: How are you guys doing? Terrible intro? Tricia, You riding
Speaker 1: the bus is just fine? Yes? Did you hear how
Speaker 1: she said? That? Was such just shame? It's fine, nicer.
Speaker 1: I have boyfriends that only rode the bus. She broke
Speaker 1: up with all of them. Immedia tell you that. But Tricia,
Speaker 1: we're gonna we're gonna try our best to be on
Speaker 1: your side. Here, tell us about why you emailed for
Speaker 1: a second date update. Who'd you go out with? All? Right?
Speaker 1: So his name is Dave, Okay, I met him on
Speaker 1: the bus. So what happened was sometimes I'll see the
Speaker 1: same kind of characters on the bus every day, but
Speaker 1: this guy hadn't met before. He sat next to me.
Speaker 1: Didn't think much of it, but then the bus had
Speaker 1: like some kind of problem the engine. I don't know
Speaker 1: what it was, but Brook cut the wires. But so
Speaker 1: the bus stalls. We were hanging out there, so of course,
Speaker 1: you know, we start talking to each other. Next to me,
Speaker 1: it seemed like a really nice guy. He's like, listen,
Speaker 1: I'm already late for work. Let's just go meet up
Speaker 1: for coffee. I like that instead of I'm already late
Speaker 1: for work. We should call, you know, somebody to come
Speaker 1: get us. Let's just screw it, right, And I was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: he seems lovely, and so anyway, we go to the coffee.
Speaker 1: It's just a quick thing, but we get we get
Speaker 1: our cups of coffee. We exchange numbers, okay, so it
Speaker 1: was like more than just a friendship saying yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean I felt like, why would he give me his number?
Speaker 1: Otherwise you're asked me to coffee. Did you do that
Speaker 1: like romantic thing where you guys sit out of each
Speaker 1: other's coffee cups? We did not, Or you do that
Speaker 1: thing where you interlock your arms and take a sip
Speaker 1: hoping not just feel scalding hot coffee down. I don't
Speaker 1: expect Brook to understand what romance looks like, but I
Speaker 1: sure did you guys not pull that move? We did
Speaker 1: not pull that move. Yeah. I think the next question
Speaker 1: is did he call you? Did you guys go out again?
Speaker 1: They exchange numbers Jeffrey, Oh, okay, sure, go ahead, and
Speaker 1: that's that. Hares were ridiculed to the meat. So I'm like,
Speaker 1: how's your week been. We're talking, and he's like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I've just been really busy. I'm planning this escape sale.
Speaker 1: I have a lot of stuff to get rid of.
Speaker 1: I've got friends helping me. And I was actually like,
Speaker 1: you know what, I actually in the market for a
Speaker 1: couch right now. My cats destroyed my old one and
Speaker 1: I'm like, do you buy any chance have a couch?
Speaker 1: He's like, I do as a matter of fact, and
Speaker 1: he goes, just come pick it up. It's not going
Speaker 1: to charge you for it. If you like it, you
Speaker 1: can just have it. Get a free couch out a
Speaker 1: deal sweet, right, And at this point I don't know
Speaker 1: what the couch looks like or anything, but we went
Speaker 1: to a bar together. He showed me pictures on the phone.
Speaker 1: I'm like, this is perfect. Sounds like a hot date
Speaker 1: showing each other couch pictures. It's kind of like a
Speaker 1: two for one deal, right, just getting a hot date
Speaker 1: and a free couch. Did it pass your eye test?
Speaker 1: You mean the guy or the couch, because both did?
Speaker 1: Oh oh more than just sit on that couch when
Speaker 1: you go pick it up? So did you go get it? Well?
Speaker 1: You think? So I go to his house. I said, sure,
Speaker 1: I'll take it. I just need some way to get
Speaker 1: at home, right, AKA, you need to take this to
Speaker 1: my house please? Ye okay, hoping he's going to offer.
Speaker 1: But it's weird because he's got this little back patio
Speaker 1: thing with a sliding lass door and it's been open
Speaker 1: and at this point his cat comes running in cat
Speaker 1: jumps up onto the couch and like nestles into it,
Speaker 1: and he's like, I'm sorry, Mike hat Is. He's not
Speaker 1: Breth misattached to this couch, but it's almost like he's
Speaker 1: claiming it right now. And he's like, I don't know
Speaker 1: if it's a sign, but suddenly I just have this
Speaker 1: feeling like I need to keep this couch, like this
Speaker 1: cat is in love with he gave DIBs to his
Speaker 1: cat over you cat just nozzle the couch. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm a cat person, so I get it to a
Speaker 1: degree that I also am like, that's so weird. Do
Speaker 1: you think it's maybe because you asked that you needed
Speaker 1: help bringing it back? Like all of a sudden, the
Speaker 1: cat is on it and then you're asking that and
Speaker 1: he's like, oh crash, never mind. I won't even help
Speaker 1: a good friend moved their couch somebody. I'm just meeting
Speaker 1: for a date in my living room now, So does
Speaker 1: that mean you didn't get it? No, he didn't give
Speaker 1: it to me. And I'm like, maybe when we hang
Speaker 1: out again, he'll like provide some clarity. Who guys, I
Speaker 1: never heard from him again, And you think it's all
Speaker 1: because of the couch. I don't know why. Maybe the
Speaker 1: cat nuzzled up against your ankle and was like, oh,
Speaker 1: cat has DIBs on you now. But let's see and
Speaker 1: find out. We're gonna play a song. We'll come back
Speaker 1: and we'll call Dave. We'll ask him why he's not
Speaker 1: calling you back, and maybe see if that couch is
Speaker 1: still available so I could have it, because yeah, I
Speaker 1: need some help in my place. Anyway, we'll do it
Speaker 1: in your second date update, but I still get DIBs
Speaker 1: on the couch over you. We're gonna let Dave settle this.
Speaker 1: We're gonna call him. Maybe we'll do it right after this.
Speaker 1: It's a very interesting story we just heard from Tricia
Speaker 1: about her date with a guy named Dave, but also
Speaker 1: very matter of fact, like she didn't have a lot
Speaker 1: of emotion. You mean, I feel like I'm just being
Speaker 1: honest here. I feel like, Tricia, you don't seem very
Speaker 1: reconnected to the guy. It sounds like what you really
Speaker 1: want out of this is a second shot at that
Speaker 1: couch that was selling before you got cat blocks. I
Speaker 1: gotta say I wouldn't I wouldn't judge you for it.
Speaker 1: That's a good deal. I'll just ask if I offered
Speaker 1: you the couch right now instead of a date. What
Speaker 1: would you say, Trisha? Um, I think I would take
Speaker 1: the couch at this point. Yeah, yeah, really you wouldn't.
Speaker 1: It probably would have been that way the other point too.
Speaker 1: I Mean the whole thing is like, I don't know
Speaker 1: Dave that well. I'm not invested emotionally, and if it's
Speaker 1: a beautiful couch, I can get for a bargain and
Speaker 1: it's perfect more emotionally invested in the couch. Those are
Speaker 1: smart choices you're making in your life. I actually back
Speaker 1: that one. Those are harder to find the men that
Speaker 1: fits your place perfectly, and I love the look of it. Okay, well,
Speaker 1: this is gonna be the first time we've ever done
Speaker 1: a second date for a piece of furniture, but let's
Speaker 1: give it a shot. We're gonna call Dave. Good couch
Speaker 1: is hard to find. I'm gonna call his number. Hello, Hey,
Speaker 1: is this Dave? Uh? This is a Dave who's calling?
Speaker 1: Hey Dave. My name is Jeff from the show Brooke
Speaker 1: and Jeffrey in the morning. We're on the radio, Like
Speaker 1: right now we're on the radio. Why am I on
Speaker 1: the radio? What's going on here? Good question? Dave Um.
Speaker 1: Before we can really get into it, I do need
Speaker 1: to ask. We heard that you have a couch that
Speaker 1: was up for sale, A really nice couch. We're wondering
Speaker 1: is that still available? Uh? What I mean? I still
Speaker 1: got the couch. But who? How do you know that?
Speaker 1: Wh who told you this? We heard about this amazing
Speaker 1: couch from one of our listeners named Tricia. Tricia remember
Speaker 1: remember hung out with her a little bit, went to
Speaker 1: a bar and showed her the couch. Yeah, yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I remember Tricia. What you sounds that I'm mad? Are
Speaker 1: you mad at Tricia? No? No, I'm not mad. I
Speaker 1: just I'm done with Trisha and I didn't I didn't
Speaker 1: really want to bring it back up. Did Who are
Speaker 1: you calling me about this? You're done with her? Well?
Speaker 1: She told us that you were the one who asked
Speaker 1: her out after you met on the bus. I did. Yeah, honestly,
Speaker 1: she was cool. I like Trisha, she's she's like a
Speaker 1: good person. Didn't feel right. It didn't feel right, was it?
Speaker 1: I mean? She also said that you offered her your
Speaker 1: couch for free. I did. I did at one point, Yeah,
Speaker 1: but then things changed and so she didn't end up
Speaker 1: taking the couch changed. Yeah, why everything seems so good
Speaker 1: up to that moment. Yeah. Uh, you guys are being
Speaker 1: a little nosy here. I don't even know you. I
Speaker 1: don't know what this is about. So are we done here?
Speaker 1: I mean, so, I apologize for that, but that's kind
Speaker 1: of what we do on this segment. We're trying to
Speaker 1: help Tricia figure out what went wrong because she's clueless. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we just want to help her tell her, Hey, what happened.
Speaker 1: Is it something that you think she should understand already,
Speaker 1: Like why why you don't want to talk to her again?
Speaker 1: Or is it because she rides the bus and you
Speaker 1: don't like that? Because that's it's a popular opinion on
Speaker 1: this show that bus people are not worthy of love.
Speaker 1: But that I ride the bus to work. I think
Speaker 1: it's totally fine. I don't really understand what you guys,
Speaker 1: we'll check that one off of the list. It's not that.
Speaker 1: So what is it? What's the reason that you have
Speaker 1: this total shift in attitude towards Tricia? I mean, we
Speaker 1: heard somebody about your cat, but I don't know if
Speaker 1: anybody really believes that your cat rubbing up against the
Speaker 1: couch is going to stop you from giving it away.
Speaker 1: I think it's because she asked for help in moving
Speaker 1: the couch. Is that why? Theories? No, it's not that
Speaker 1: all right, listen, if it'll end this quicker, I'm just
Speaker 1: gonna I'm gonna let you know. But it's some people
Speaker 1: might think it's weird, but this is the truth. Okay, okay, okay.
Speaker 1: So the a state where I've been living for the
Speaker 1: last couple of months. Actually, my Grandma's the state. Uh,
Speaker 1: she passed away just a few months ago, So I've
Speaker 1: been taking things there. Oh yeah, that's hard, that's okay.
Speaker 1: I think you appreciate that. Anyway. The cat was my
Speaker 1: grandma's and I'm taking care of the cat as well. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know. As soon as Tricia comes to get
Speaker 1: the couch, this cat, who has never ever, i mean
Speaker 1: not once jumped on this couch, went right up to it.
Speaker 1: It's like the cat saw Tricia and tried to intervene.
Speaker 1: I think, I mean, I know, I know deep inside
Speaker 1: that that is my grandma. That is a sign that
Speaker 1: she is speaking through this cat, and it was a
Speaker 1: sign to not give this couch away and to not
Speaker 1: see this woman anymore. I don't know what reason why
Speaker 1: when you know, you know, and something just told me,
Speaker 1: this is my grandma telling me to watch out. Was
Speaker 1: your grandma always pretty judgy about the people you would do? Yeah, honestly,
Speaker 1: she just wanted to make sure I was happy, and
Speaker 1: I think I trusted her opinions. Okay, I'm going to
Speaker 1: keep trusting it in the afterlife. Weird question back to you,
Speaker 1: is your grandma the cat or is your grandma she's
Speaker 1: speaking through the catrol? You know that that actually makes
Speaker 1: sense to me? Is that weird? Yeah? I mean I
Speaker 1: don't know the logistics of the supernatural here. All I
Speaker 1: know is the feeling I got. Yeah, okay, it just
Speaker 1: nobody gets the couch, not just Tricia. I think it
Speaker 1: was just that Tricia. I mean, I believe in signs. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and I'm just reading the signs that Tricia has been
Speaker 1: on the other line listening this entire time and wants
Speaker 1: to talk to you. Yeah. I feel like I've been
Speaker 1: set up here. What's going on? Don't be bored? Don't.
Speaker 1: I mean, you can be if you need to be,
Speaker 1: But like, thank you, I just don't tell men how
Speaker 1: to feel. She's not trying to like upset you. She
Speaker 1: didn't know she didn't know that that was what was
Speaker 1: going on, right, Tricia, Uh No, I didn't. Um, that
Speaker 1: is so weird, Like you really think that your grandma
Speaker 1: sent you, was signed through your cat that we shouldn't
Speaker 1: go out anymore. And this makes me feel like you
Speaker 1: might have some mental problems. To be honest, that is
Speaker 1: so rude. He said, Hey, this is gonna sound weird.
Speaker 1: You know, it doesn't feel right. Everybody experiences grief and
Speaker 1: everything else in different ways, and this is the way
Speaker 1: he feels like his grandma's talking to him now. I
Speaker 1: do think maybe the argument could be that what if
Speaker 1: the cat was saying, yes, I'm excited about this instead
Speaker 1: of like maybe you were interpreting the cat wanted to
Speaker 1: hang out with her with the counsel. I mean it
Speaker 1: could be Honestly, does that sound like a possibility, Dave,
Speaker 1: After this conversation, I'm more convinced than ever that the
Speaker 1: way I interpreted it was correct. My grandma just helped
Speaker 1: me dodge a bullet, So thank you. I'm going to
Speaker 1: trust you, know what, Dave, like forget even you because
Speaker 1: at this point, obviously we're not a romantic match, and
Speaker 1: I'm so fine with that. Obviously, what I mean, but
Speaker 1: like the fact that can I just like have that?
Speaker 1: Could we just do the couch exchange because I'll give
Speaker 1: you two hundred dollars for it. I'll have someone comes
Speaker 1: to get out the couch. I still want the couch.
Speaker 1: Something can be salvaged from this conversation. He's going to
Speaker 1: give you his grandmother's couch like it's just had three
Speaker 1: hundred dollars. I would sooner bring that couch to the
Speaker 1: dumps than give it to you. Oh, don't put your
Speaker 1: grandma's couch in the dump, bro, It's seriously a little dramatic. Okay,
Speaker 1: it's Tricia. Yeah, you're getting the know You're getting a
Speaker 1: know from Dave, from Dave's cat and from Dave's grandma.
Speaker 1: So thank you Dave's cat, because now I feel like
Speaker 1: I dodged a bullet on top of it, you know, well, Dave. Okay,
Speaker 1: so no, you don't have to go out or see
Speaker 1: Tricia again. But I know your cat's not here on
Speaker 1: the line with us. But do you think you can
Speaker 1: ask it if your grandma thinks I'm a good person,
Speaker 1: because I would really like to have that couch. It
Speaker 1: sounds really nice. No, sorry, but I'm getting that couch.
Speaker 1: I'm offering more money than you are not getting, like
Speaker 1: you've been cut out of the equations. Somebody should get
Speaker 1: that couch. I think it should be me, Dave. They
Speaker 1: give it to the cat, well, go ahead and try
Speaker 1: ikea dot com and let them leave me alone. Second
Speaker 1: couch update Jeffrey in the morning. I was just another
Speaker 1: one of those second date updates that all of a
Speaker 1: sudden it goes off the rails and there's no way
Speaker 1: to fix it. Oh my gosh, it's just spiral. She
Speaker 1: just I'm sorry she was mean. Yeah, I mean, gosh,
Speaker 1: if you don't believe that your grandma, can you know,
Speaker 1: show you signs? Fine, whatever, but you don't need to
Speaker 1: be so mean. Somebody overly aggressive. And it's really not
Speaker 1: fair of her to discredit the cat signs because she
Speaker 1: was the one that told us she followed the signs
Speaker 1: when her bus broke down, that she was supposed to
Speaker 1: hang out with them. Oh that's a good point. Maybe.
Speaker 1: I mean, I don't know that I was fully listening
Speaker 1: when she said that. Just selective sign reading and selective
Speaker 1: listening apparently in this room. I think she just matched
Speaker 1: you didn't get the couch that's honestly what she's really
Speaker 1: upset about. I guarantee she googled it and like on
Speaker 1: wafer or something, it's like a thousand dollars cound. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't want to run into her inside of home goods.
Speaker 1: That would be But remember, if you ever want to
Speaker 1: get a second date update, you can email the show.
Speaker 1: We'll call the person who wasn't calling you back. Broke
Speaker 1: and Jeffrey in the morning
