Speaker 1: Second, so I never do this, but in the interest
Speaker 1: of saving time here, Yeah, because this is a more
Speaker 1: involved date than we normally get. I need to read
Speaker 1: a little bit from Josh's email before we bring him
Speaker 1: on the phone. Okay, Josh, is that cool with you? Yeah? Ok.
Speaker 1: Because he basically transcripted out his entire online conversation with
Speaker 1: this girl, Haley did and said she's very good looking,
Speaker 1: so he went above and beyond for her because they
Speaker 1: matched on Hinge and one of her dating prompts said
Speaker 1: dating me is like an adventure. I'm spicy, spontaneous and sweet.
Speaker 1: And Josh replied to that saying, well, if we ever
Speaker 1: went out, we'd meet somewhere and I'd give you the
Speaker 1: option of choosing one of three adventure envelopes. Whatever one
Speaker 1: you pick will do. And I promise none of them
Speaker 1: say go back to my place inside if all three
Speaker 1: of them said that, yeah, And two weeks later, she
Speaker 1: finally responded to that, saying, oh two weeks wow, I'm intrigued. Wow,
Speaker 1: And so he wrote back, intrigued, just wait till you
Speaker 1: see what's behind envelope number three. What is it? I
Speaker 1: want to know? It's kind of teasing her here dude,
Speaker 1: that's really good. And she asked him, do I get
Speaker 1: an idea of the types of things in each envelope?
Speaker 1: And he told her, sure, exactly from your bio envelope
Speaker 1: number one, spicy, envelope number two sweet, and envelope number
Speaker 1: three spontaneous. Am I chubby? Or do all three something
Speaker 1: like food? I mean I did. I did also draw
Speaker 1: the analogy to that food competitions for all. But look
Speaker 1: how interested you all are and finding out what is brilliant.
Speaker 1: And I'd better have done the envelope date because I
Speaker 1: Am going to be horribly disappointed if I don't find
Speaker 1: out what's in these things after all this. That is
Speaker 1: how Josh locked down a date here with Hailey. So Josh,
Speaker 1: this is really elaborate. Man. Thanks. I guess I don't know.
Speaker 1: I guess I just wanted to an effort. Dude. It's awesome,
Speaker 1: but you are building yourself up pretty big here, Like
Speaker 1: I would think the dates have to be really really
Speaker 1: special because if she picked spicy date and then you
Speaker 1: just ended up going to like McDonald's and trying the
Speaker 1: Mick Chipotle milkshake, that would be kind of a letdown
Speaker 1: after all this build up that's the worst case scenario.
Speaker 1: But at the same time, you've got to realize the
Speaker 1: bar has kind of been set pretty low these days. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I hear right. At the same time too, like be
Speaker 1: a little bit classer than that, like a taco, like
Speaker 1: a taco truck for SPA. But that's such a big
Speaker 1: build up to end up just going to a taco truck.
Speaker 1: Why not just go to a taco truck. He's not
Speaker 1: putting on the Bachelor right now, Jeffrey. He's just trying
Speaker 1: to make like the intro to something a little bit
Speaker 1: more enticing. I don't know what envelope did she pick.
Speaker 1: She went with spontaneous. So she opened the spontaneous envelope
Speaker 1: and what was inside, Well, so we we meet up
Speaker 1: at the spot that I told her to public areas,
Speaker 1: don't worry about it, And inside there was a piece
Speaker 1: of paper thank you. Oh wow. On the paper it
Speaker 1: said follow the arrows. Follow the arrows. What does that mean?
Speaker 1: There's an arrow on your chest pointing down? Terrible? I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: go ahead, Yeah, where are the arrows? So there is
Speaker 1: an arrow? Like she finally finds one on the graft
Speaker 1: and it led to the corner and there was another
Speaker 1: arrow there. It's like your date is following a GPS
Speaker 1: system like turn left here, turn right in ninety feet
Speaker 1: walking date, No, no, no, no, I wasn't trying to
Speaker 1: get my steps in or anything like that. Okay, where
Speaker 1: did where did they end up in a circle? Right right?
Speaker 1: And meanwhile, by the way, she's loving this, I'm laughing.
Speaker 1: She's like looking at me like where do they go? Josh? Where?
Speaker 1: So finally there is you know, one of those like
Speaker 1: merge arrow signs, Like I want less details on the arrows.
Speaker 1: I just want to know where you were, all right.
Speaker 1: I had taped an envelope on the back of the
Speaker 1: on the merge sign of the highway. Okay, I'm just
Speaker 1: about the street. I didn't put her in if like okay,
Speaker 1: so now we have another envelope. What's in the second envelope?
Speaker 1: So we were right by the train station. It was
Speaker 1: basically a made up coupon and said, hey, we can
Speaker 1: stop at any of the stops and stop at a
Speaker 1: restaurant at any of these places in town, am track
Speaker 1: or something. We're talking just like the local. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: you tricked her onto mass Transit after walking through a
Speaker 1: bunch of I kind of take back what I said earlier.
Speaker 1: You should have just on the taco truck. Yeah, who
Speaker 1: say there wasn't a taco truck where we were going?
Speaker 1: Was there a taco truck? All right? All right? We
Speaker 1: go end up going to this small little restaurant in
Speaker 1: this Termaini town. We have a wonderful dinner. We got
Speaker 1: to know each other along the way on the train,
Speaker 1: which is awesome. And at the end of the meal,
Speaker 1: reaching to my jacket, and I pulled out a flower
Speaker 1: in a note and it says I had a great time,
Speaker 1: and it says and followed the arrows home. So at
Speaker 1: the end of the night, looking back on it, were
Speaker 1: you thankful that she chose the spontaneous date as opposed
Speaker 1: to one of the other spicier sweet Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: it was kind of a wildcard either way. I mean
Speaker 1: I thought all of them were pretty awesome. Okay, did
Speaker 1: you get a vibe on what she thought of the
Speaker 1: spontaneous date. I've thought she really enjoyed it. You know,
Speaker 1: I was using her smiling and laughing and what I
Speaker 1: thought was good rapport. As is the judgment for this.
Speaker 1: It actually sounds pretty cute and romantic. How did you
Speaker 1: guys end it. So we took an uber back and
Speaker 1: I dropped her off at her place and just you know,
Speaker 1: made sure she got in Okay, uh, small kiss and
Speaker 1: that was it. Yeah, And I texted basically, hey, I
Speaker 1: had a nice time, and she responded like so did
Speaker 1: I and that's basically been it. Okay. Well, I mean
Speaker 1: she did take two weeks to even respond to your
Speaker 1: initial direct message, so maybe she's just blow over. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she's busy. She dates at a turtles pace. Yeah, or
Speaker 1: maybe she even went back to the arrows looking for
Speaker 1: alternative routes anything that she missed it. Yeah. Yeah, we'll
Speaker 1: find out what the real answer is when we call
Speaker 1: her and finish your second date update right after this.
Speaker 1: All right, thank you appreciate it. Second probably the most
Speaker 1: elaborate first date that we've ever heard on the show before. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because to recap, Josh met a really attractive girl online
Speaker 1: and got her to talk to him by setting up
Speaker 1: a big adventure date with three mystery envelopes, all based
Speaker 1: on how she described herself in her profile spicy, sweet,
Speaker 1: and spontaneous. Yeah, she chose the spontaneous adventure yea, which
Speaker 1: led to basically a scavenger hunt for their dinner with
Speaker 1: a bunch of arrows, leading around the city to a
Speaker 1: busy highway, onto a commuter train, over to a nearby town,
Speaker 1: down to a hole in the wall restaurant. Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean he got our own public transit into her to
Speaker 1: a hole in the wall. I mean they yeah, by
Speaker 1: the train station, all right. If I'm reading the room
Speaker 1: right now. Effort was obviously an a. But it sounds
Speaker 1: like you guys aren't all that impressed with how the
Speaker 1: date turned out a little more crazy like, oh, we're
Speaker 1: swimming with dolphins, you know, a fancy car. You guys
Speaker 1: are all hating him. But he put in some real
Speaker 1: effort to we did, and it's more than any any
Speaker 1: of you jokeles have ever had in recent years. But Josh,
Speaker 1: I mean, what do you think may have gone wrong?
Speaker 1: Do you have any regrets about how the night panned out? Uh? No,
Speaker 1: not really. I mean, like, look, I'm going to be
Speaker 1: completely real with you. I kind of out kicked my
Speaker 1: coverage with her coverage. That means she's out of his league. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it's like a football analogy. Is that what you don't now?
Speaker 1: You want us to break down football for you too?
Speaker 1: Let's go back to how many arrows were on the ground,
Speaker 1: and dude, you had to visualize what he was doing, right,
Speaker 1: I think we just need to call her. Let's just
Speaker 1: call Haley and find out what Haley thought, because that's
Speaker 1: the real issue. Are you ready to do this, Josh,
Speaker 1: let's do it. Yeah, okay, yeah, I need you guys. Okay,
Speaker 1: this is also kind of spontaneous. This is actually very spontan. Yeah,
Speaker 1: let's kick off this by calling her. That's a sports reference, Brook, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it wasn't a very good one. It's baseball. So here
Speaker 1: we go. They kicked the ball for the first All right,
Speaker 1: let's score a home run and call the Alright, let's
Speaker 1: go Hello. Hey is this Haley? Yeah? Who is this? Hey?
Speaker 1: We're a radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey in the
Speaker 1: morning whole shows on the phone right now, dying to
Speaker 1: talk to you. Honestly, that's true. We're really excited to
Speaker 1: hear from you. Oh okay, we want to ask you
Speaker 1: about a date that you went on recently with one
Speaker 1: of our listeners named Josh. Okay, what's this about? Now?
Speaker 1: It's part of a segment that we do call the
Speaker 1: Second Date Update, and so Josh told us about the
Speaker 1: date that he set up for you, which sounded pretty elaborate.
Speaker 1: Did we were all hooked when he I mean he
Speaker 1: told us about the direct message and about how he
Speaker 1: said he has three different envelopes for you to choose from. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I don't know what he's really told you. Sorry, I
Speaker 1: know it probably sounds creepy that we already know everything
Speaker 1: about your date and we're really excited about it, but
Speaker 1: we're loving vicariously, so just let us. We really want
Speaker 1: to help out Josh, because he told us the night
Speaker 1: went pretty well. Well, I mean, that was the probably
Speaker 1: the most um elaborate and thoughtful date I've been on.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, that's so nice I've been that made you
Speaker 1: feel really special? Yeah? I was totally impressed by his
Speaker 1: effort and like all the thought he put into every detail. Yeah. So,
Speaker 1: are you just like busy and that's why you're not
Speaker 1: calling it back? Or were there not enough arrows in
Speaker 1: the scavenger? Oh? No, I mean I think everything happens
Speaker 1: for a reason. Oh okay, what does that mean? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean I wouldn't take that date bath for anything. Oh,
Speaker 1: we'd never hear it's nice, But I feel like there's
Speaker 1: a buck coming. Yeah, but I wouldn't I mean, I
Speaker 1: wouldn't do it again? What that's okay? There's other date options, apparently,
Speaker 1: at least two more. Ye spicy and sweet. Why wouldn't
Speaker 1: you do it again? Uh? Oh? When we got to
Speaker 1: the restaurant, the waiter was was so cute. Um what Yeah?
Speaker 1: And uh there was more attraction there at the hole
Speaker 1: in the wall restaurant you guys went to, you found
Speaker 1: a hot waiter. Brook wants to know the name of
Speaker 1: the restaurant so that you could go there and check
Speaker 1: him out. I mean, how does that even happen? How
Speaker 1: would a guy even hit on you while you're on
Speaker 1: a date with somebody else? Like, isn't that just a
Speaker 1: red flag right there? He didn't hit on me. I
Speaker 1: could just feel the energy between us. It was I mean,
Speaker 1: it was just you know how you know, something sort
Speaker 1: of meant to be. Yeah, it's just like the way
Speaker 1: he says something like, would you like any pepper on
Speaker 1: that salad? Well, it wasn't like that, And so I
Speaker 1: followed my gut and went back to the restaurant. Wait
Speaker 1: after the date was over, Yeah, the same night. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Oh my god? And did what you asked the waiter out.
Speaker 1: You're dating the waiter? What what is happening? Yeah, we've
Speaker 1: been on three dates and we're not slowing down. A
Speaker 1: kind of cute. I know the fact that Josh has
Speaker 1: been hearing all of this and has not said a word. Why. Yeah,
Speaker 1: because Haley, he's on the phone. Yeah, sorry, Yeah, Josh
Speaker 1: has been listening this whole time. Um, yeah, no, I
Speaker 1: heard the whole thing. She really she really lived up
Speaker 1: to the spontaneous. Yeah. Yeah, wow, table's really turned on
Speaker 1: the whole spontaneous. You know, just suck. Let's just really stuck.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Yeah, but I'm so happy that we out
Speaker 1: and we got to know each other. But oh yeah,
Speaker 1: it's thrilling, absolutely thrilling. You could have just told me,
Speaker 1: you know, don't leave me like hanging on the line. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's a hard thing to tell somebody. I met somebody
Speaker 1: else on the date I was out with. You don't
Speaker 1: even but I mean, like make something up, don't you
Speaker 1: like ghost me, like just like hey, I'm just not
Speaker 1: feeling it or whatever, like come on, Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: maybe Haley, were you like kind of keeping him in
Speaker 1: your back pocket as a backup plan and cases didn't
Speaker 1: work out or was there an arrow on the table
Speaker 1: pointing at the waiter and she was just following the arrows? Again,
Speaker 1: I just want where my heart was paining. Oh man, God, seriously,
Speaker 1: just like Josh, what are the chances like you get
Speaker 1: on the train, you pick a random restaurant and there's
Speaker 1: an attractive waiter. So yeah, you put her on a
Speaker 1: train to her next boyfriend. Yeah, your date dated to
Speaker 1: work in helping find love, just not for your self, Yeah,
Speaker 1: for other people. Again, I'm absolutely thrilled about that, Brian side,
Speaker 1: you have two other dates pre planned and envelopes for
Speaker 1: some other lucky girl out there. Silver linings, I guess, yeah, yes.
Speaker 1: And the silver lining here could be that she didn't
Speaker 1: know you were on the phone listening. So you two
Speaker 1: are together right now, and I'm going to give you
Speaker 1: a chance to win her back right over the phone,
Speaker 1: live on the radio. That must have happened for a reason.
Speaker 1: This is the fourth all its good point. Read the signs, Haley, Josh,
Speaker 1: the floor is yours. Look, Haley, I put in a
Speaker 1: lot of effort, and I think that says a lot
Speaker 1: about me and the kind of person that I am,
Speaker 1: and definitely way more effort than the waiter did. So
Speaker 1: you know, what does he have that I don't. Basically
Speaker 1: an employee discount at that restaurant, for one, but yeah,
Speaker 1: and also whatever tip money that Josh left, that's true,
Speaker 1: But besides that, what else? Haley? I mean, I really
Speaker 1: appreciate the effort Josh and all your thoughts. You're a
Speaker 1: really special person. But I feel that things, again, it
Speaker 1: will happen for a reason. I feel like she's like
Speaker 1: reading a sign on her wall, right, it's right, and
Speaker 1: her family lived with an arrow all over that side,
Speaker 1: all right, So it sounds like we're not going to
Speaker 1: be able to get you another date here, Josh. That
Speaker 1: definitely seems apparent. Yeah, I mean we tried, all right,
Speaker 1: You guys did try, and I do appreciate that, all right. Yeah, sorry, buddy. Really,
Speaker 1: I'm just curious, like if you had chosen one of
Speaker 1: the other two envelopes, the spicy or the sweet possibility, Okay,
Speaker 1: do you think maybe things could have turned out differently
Speaker 1: and you'd be with Josh. Hmm, that's a good question.
Speaker 1: I think that the way things have just turned out
Speaker 1: were the way they were supposed to turn out. You know,
Speaker 1: everything happens Fruk and Jeffrey in the morning. All right, well,
Speaker 1: lesson learned. If you're a guy and you go out
Speaker 1: with an attractive lady, do not go within a hundred
Speaker 1: yards of any other male on your two risky. She's
Speaker 1: probably gonna fall in love and leave you. I don't
Speaker 1: know where you're gonna go without men. You have to
Speaker 1: go someplace where men are rare, like an a nail Salonen. Yeah,
Speaker 1: a Bravo convention, one of Jose's comedy shows. It's all
Speaker 1: ladies that those Actually, we have a very high ratio
Speaker 1: of ladies and dudes at my show thanks to our show.
Speaker 1: I'm just gonna say, I think he lucked out that
Speaker 1: woman in her motivational quotes. I just couldn't take him
Speaker 1: say yes. We can officially add everything Happens for a
Speaker 1: Reason to the list of most hated single dating quotes,
Speaker 1: along with You'll find love when you least expect it.
Speaker 1: It doesn't count if you're more than second cousins. People
