Speaker 1: Second Date up dates.
Speaker 2: A woman emailed us for a second Date update recently
Speaker 2: named Jamie, and in her email, Jamie says she gets
Speaker 2: hit on by guys all the time and she's so
Speaker 2: over it.
Speaker 3: Good on you, Jamie.
Speaker 2: Girl, preaching to the choir. My LinkedIn account is like
Speaker 2: a thirst trap. Every time I log in there, I
Speaker 2: got these billionaire CEOs DM and me like, hey, jeff,
Speaker 2: I got a job for you if you're interested.
Speaker 4: And I'm like, oh, well, maybe you should have major
Speaker 4: LinkedIn profile.
Speaker 3: Pick that shirtless one you have.
Speaker 2: I didn't know. Yeah, I don't mean. I'm getting a
Speaker 2: lot of hits on my account. What can I say? So, Jamie,
Speaker 2: I feel you.
Speaker 3: If you're getting hit on so much, why are you
Speaker 3: on the phone with us?
Speaker 5: I find that most guys, especially if they're attractive, are
Speaker 5: kind of the same. Okay, there's not a lot going on, right,
Speaker 5: And so.
Speaker 3: I'm guessing you met one that was hot and smart.
Speaker 5: Yes, and amazingly original.
Speaker 2: Does he have a name Jeremy?
Speaker 3: Where'd you meet Jeremy?
Speaker 5: Men online? And he had the best pickup line ever.
Speaker 3: Share share dade.
Speaker 5: No, it's awesome. So he texted me, he said, do
Speaker 5: you like water? And I said yeah, and he wrote,
Speaker 5: good because you already like seventy percent of me.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's so bad. Oh my god, you like that?
Speaker 5: Huh he's a funny dude.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, I love it. You loved it. So
Speaker 3: how did the conversation go?
Speaker 5: It was awesome.
Speaker 6: And then so he invited me to dinner and we
Speaker 6: both loved Chinese.
Speaker 5: So we did that, and like when you walked in,
Speaker 5: I was like, oh my god, he's totally adorable.
Speaker 3: My gun, you were so excited. What were you feeling?
Speaker 3: Were you nervous?
Speaker 5: Were you I was probably nervous, But like he looked
Speaker 5: like the cutest shark, Like he looked like a shark.
Speaker 2: The water stuff.
Speaker 3: Again, why do you say you look like a shark?
Speaker 5: Because his eyes were like far apart, like on each
Speaker 5: side of his head a little bit.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: Typically that's not.
Speaker 2: A good thing.
Speaker 4: I mean, I grew up in small town, Idaho, and
Speaker 4: you gotta watch out for those eyes being you know,
Speaker 4: it's usually a sign.
Speaker 7: Of I don't know.
Speaker 5: I mean, I just I thought it was adorable, Like
Speaker 5: he was like my little stuffed shark.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 2: I really hope you didn't say it to him. No, no, okay.
Speaker 5: But he was seriously cute.
Speaker 4: Okay, we're gonna trust you on that one because the
Speaker 4: description isn't matching up with that hammer.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 2: So, how how was the romantic connection between you and
Speaker 2: Shark boy?
Speaker 5: It was intense, definite chemistry with a lot in common.
Speaker 5: We were both This is so silly, but it was
Speaker 5: so cool. We were both our high school mascots.
Speaker 4: Oh okay, I will say I think that that takes
Speaker 4: a particular personality, and if you can be a mascot,
Speaker 4: you probably are attracted to other mascots, and.
Speaker 2: That's why you're so all going.
Speaker 8: Probably.
Speaker 5: Yeah, were you the sharks at your high school? I
Speaker 5: was an Indian.
Speaker 3: Questionable these days?
Speaker 4: Okay, yeah, don't post those pictures online.
Speaker 2: We apologize to all our listeners who are going to
Speaker 2: be offended.
Speaker 4: Please please tell me he was something like a tiger.
Speaker 3: Please please tell me a tiger.
Speaker 5: He was a hippop.
Speaker 2: Oh my god. I can't think of a worse high
Speaker 2: school mascot than like quicksand maybe would be worse. Oh
Speaker 2: my god, quicksand we suck.
Speaker 5: But you have to under stand I collect hippos.
Speaker 3: Wow, we just came full circle. Are you being for real?
Speaker 5: Did you sign I collect hippos?
Speaker 2: Jamie? We have to ask is this a real call?
Speaker 2: Is this real? This doesn't even this sounds like you're
Speaker 2: making this up.
Speaker 3: I mean, think about it, Jamie. You went out with
Speaker 3: a guy whose eyes are so far apart.
Speaker 2: He looked like a shark.
Speaker 4: You were mascots, you'res incredibly racist, and.
Speaker 2: You collect supposed he.
Speaker 8: Okay, we have a break for you guys. Listen every
Speaker 8: REQUI I believe in love. I think your date has
Speaker 8: gone great so far. You have tons of chemistry.
Speaker 2: You know these guys seen you're a weirdo together. I
Speaker 2: gotta tell you, it's a really bad sign when Jose
Speaker 2: signs off his sign of approval on a date.
Speaker 3: So did you kiss shark boy?
Speaker 5: He paid for dinner, okay, and we were leaving and
Speaker 5: I could tell he was nervous. So I actually walked
Speaker 5: him to his car and it was like the time
Speaker 5: for like maybe a kiss to happen and then you're done.
Speaker 5: But he didn't do it, like he just said. He
Speaker 5: was like, I gotta go, I'll call you in a bit,
Speaker 5: and it kind of ended abruptly.
Speaker 3: You So, what's your theory? Why do you think he's
Speaker 3: not calling you back.
Speaker 5: I think he liked me, but he's just nervous or.
Speaker 2: He didn't see you call because of his eyes. Oh
Speaker 2: my god, you can't leave him alone.
Speaker 1: Come back.
Speaker 5: All together.

Speaker 2: Jamie and she recently went out with a guy that
Speaker 2: she met online named Jeremy.
Speaker 3: Do you see how serious his voice is?
Speaker 2: They took a drive, then they bonded over both being
Speaker 2: high school mascots. He was a hippo, she was something
Speaker 2: that's not PC to say, and that night at the
Speaker 2: Chinese restaurant, it was a feeding frenzy. Nothing was left
Speaker 2: on that plate. Oh why, but things did go well. Yeah,
Speaker 2: Jamie even thought she was going to get a kiss
Speaker 2: at the end of the night, but instead Jeremy said
Speaker 2: he'd called her and that has not happened. Yeah, so
Speaker 2: she's looking for our help, and I really want to
Speaker 2: get you another date.
Speaker 5: Okay, Jamie and I want another date. I've gated a
Speaker 5: lot of guys.
Speaker 4: This is the one who Okay, let's not put too
Speaker 4: much pressure on it before we call him.
Speaker 2: A lot of fish in the sea, but this is
Speaker 2: the show that has stolen her heart. All right, Let's
Speaker 2: call him and see if we can get you a
Speaker 2: second date update. Okay, okay, all right, here we go.

Speaker 2: talk with us.
Speaker 7: How can I helpe you?
Speaker 1: Guys?
Speaker 2: Well, we do something on our show called a second
Speaker 2: date update. That's where if you go out on a
Speaker 2: date with someone and afterwards they're not calling you back,
Speaker 2: you can reach out to us and will give them
Speaker 2: a call to try and figure out the reason why
Speaker 2: and recently, you went out on a date with a
Speaker 2: woman named Jamie.
Speaker 7: Okay, okay, gotcha, all right, So.
Speaker 2: You're not calling her back, and that's a little bit
Speaker 2: confusing to her because she says that she had a
Speaker 2: great time with you that night.
Speaker 7: Okay, she told you about her date.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, I mean she mentioned a few things. She
Speaker 2: said that you guys met online, and she mentioned that
Speaker 2: she was attracted to your look and your personality, and she.
Speaker 3: Said you had an awesome pickup line about the.
Speaker 7: Water the water thing.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, yeah, see e when you're tickled with yourself.
Speaker 2: So she told us that she thought there was even
Speaker 2: going to be a kiss at the end of the night,
Speaker 2: but you just got in your car and kind of
Speaker 2: took off and got out of there. So it kind
Speaker 2: of sent mixed messages and she wants to know, like,
Speaker 2: what's going on. Why aren't you getting back to her.
Speaker 7: We have a lot in common. We were both like
Speaker 7: mascots in our high school.
Speaker 1: Yeah right.
Speaker 2: She mentioned that that you were the hippos and yeah, is.
Speaker 7: That what it is?
Speaker 3: Is that what you did?
Speaker 4: Go hip?
Speaker 7: Yeah one more time? Please you do like a big
Speaker 7: woo And then everybody in the stadium goes whoooo.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's actually way cooler than I expected it to be.
Speaker 2: Yeah, So what's the deal, then, why aren't you calling her?
Speaker 7: Well, it's really not been that long. It's only been
Speaker 7: I think what seven I mean a weekend.
Speaker 4: Are you just playing the super cool game and you're
Speaker 4: gonna wait like a month and a half before you
Speaker 4: call the back?
Speaker 7: No, Look, she told you, guys that we went out
Speaker 7: for Chinese food. M hm okay. So at the end
Speaker 7: of a meal at a Chinese restaurant, you get a
Speaker 7: fortune cookie. Yeah, And I'd look down at this fortune
Speaker 7: cookie at the end of our date and it actually
Speaker 7: made my heart skip a beat. Seriously. It was one
Speaker 7: of those like Fate is telling me something right.
Speaker 3: Now, or it's just a fortune cookie that was made
Speaker 3: in a giant factory.
Speaker 1: And hold on.
Speaker 2: They come to you for a reason the cookie.
Speaker 3: Get one for you, says the guy who buys scratch
Speaker 3: lotto tickets.
Speaker 8: All right, all right, Jeremy, what does it say?
Speaker 7: It says you're not with the right person in your
Speaker 7: life right now? Old love comes back.
Speaker 3: Oh no, you're not over your ex, are you? Is
Speaker 3: that what we're hearing?
Speaker 7: There's one person who Yeah, I still definitely have feelings
Speaker 7: for but it's the fortune more than it is like
Speaker 7: the possibility.
Speaker 2: Of that this stop.
Speaker 4: I mean like you're making you're making life decisions based
Speaker 4: on what a cookie is telling you, like fortune you guys, listen.
Speaker 4: I mean you've got to say that out loud right
Speaker 4: and think that that is pretty ridiculous.
Speaker 7: I don't think it's that crazy, Like, yeah, sure, there's
Speaker 7: definitely some superstition in there, but like some.
Speaker 3: It's all superstitions. Jeremy, like, you liked her.
Speaker 2: So have you heard from your ex then?
Speaker 1: Or have you not? I have not?
Speaker 7: Okay, So it's a waiting game, I think, is what
Speaker 7: the fortune cookie started, Like, oh so you're waiting?
Speaker 2: Okay, how long do we have to wait?
Speaker 7: So right now, I was thinking a month? Can't I
Speaker 7: don't get committed to anyone for a month? And I
Speaker 7: see what happens?
Speaker 8: Okay?
Speaker 3: Is that the time limit on the fortune cookie? I mean,
Speaker 3: here's the thing. You're reading so much into this.
Speaker 4: They the fortune cookie could have been talking about something
Speaker 4: totally different than a romantic partner.
Speaker 7: Do you have said like you if you're not with
Speaker 7: the right person? Right? I literally looked up and saw
Speaker 7: her staring into my eyes across the table.
Speaker 3: Oh, so she did everything right. It was just the cookie.
Speaker 7: I mean almost like the problem was that everything was
Speaker 7: going to write. Ah. The fortune cookie was like take
Speaker 7: a step back.
Speaker 3: Well, yeah, what do you tell someone?
Speaker 2: Well, I guess we don't have to tell her anything
Speaker 2: because Jeremy already did. Because Jeremy, we didn't let you
Speaker 2: know this before. But Jamie's been on the other line
Speaker 2: listening this entire time, and she wants to talk to you.
Speaker 2: You're not serious, fortune, says I am Jamie.
Speaker 5: Hey, it's Jeremy.
Speaker 7: Sexually, it's good to hear from you. I guess. So
Speaker 7: I heard what you said, and I get it.
Speaker 6: I mean, we talked about fate and right place, right
Speaker 6: time and signs and think I just.
Speaker 5: Wish I just wish you didn't say that, because we
Speaker 5: such a good connection.
Speaker 7: I will say, it's not that I don't want to
Speaker 7: go out with you forever now, it's just if something
Speaker 7: happens in the next month, I would feel remiss to
Speaker 7: not follow up on that. You know, like maybe another
Speaker 7: fortune will come up, you know, maybe you get Chinese
Speaker 7: food more often and next time I'll get a fortune
Speaker 7: that's like, no, no, that was right one.
Speaker 2: Just regardless cookie.
Speaker 7: Yes, I guess I have the lucky numbers on the
Speaker 7: back of my fortune cookie too.
Speaker 5: What if I guess the lucky numbers? Would that be
Speaker 5: a good sign?
Speaker 2: If I can guess some of the lucky numbers, it
Speaker 2: makes just as much sense as taking your dating advice
Speaker 2: from the fortune cookie. So let's try it.
Speaker 7: I mean, how about just let's just try to land
Speaker 7: one of them?
Speaker 2: All right, that's more realistic.
Speaker 5: I got I have a number in my gut.
Speaker 7: Oh, okay, what is it?
Speaker 5: Okay, nervous?
Speaker 3: Eleven?
Speaker 7: Eleven?
Speaker 5: That's the number I was thinking.
Speaker 3: I'm not even joking, Jerry.
Speaker 2: Maybe you're supposed to date brook Brook believes now now
Speaker 2: you're about it.
Speaker 3: Just felt like hippo and eleven. We're together for some reason.
Speaker 1: What is it is?
Speaker 3: Eleven? There is eleven?
Speaker 1: There?
Speaker 3: I'm invested.
Speaker 7: Now, Yeah, eleven's there.
Speaker 5: Did she just override the cookie?
Speaker 7: No, here's what I'm thinking. Here's what I'm thinking. The
Speaker 7: eleventh of next month. Second eight?
Speaker 2: Wame man, that's a long wait, Jeremy. She guessed the
Speaker 2: number on your fortune cookie, and that seems like a
Speaker 2: sign for me to ask you if you'd like to
Speaker 2: go out on another date with her, because we'll pay
Speaker 2: for it.
Speaker 7: You know, my superstition's getting the best of you, guys.
Speaker 7: I'm sticking with the eleventh of next month. It's in
Speaker 7: the start.
Speaker 2: Oh come on, well he's not at least right.
Speaker 3: Will you wait that long? Jamie? Do you want to
Speaker 3: wait that long?
Speaker 5: I can wait until the eleven O.
Speaker 8: See, hey, look, doesn't mean you guys can't text each
Speaker 8: other and talk, You just can't meet until the eleven.
Speaker 7: Yeah. I mean, if you want to send me a
Speaker 7: few picks before the eleventh, it would be nice to
Speaker 7: at least see you again.
Speaker 2: Maybe dress up in your high school mascot out there
Speaker 2: over again.
Speaker 7: Oh stop, stop, Jeremy, I will see you on the eleventh.
Speaker 5: I'm marking on my calendar right now.
Speaker 2: All right, well, I'm looking forward to it. Congratulations, Jamie,
Speaker 2: we got you your second date. Just you have to
Speaker 2: wait a little bit. Huzzah, Okay, huzza.
Speaker 7: I hear your girl.
Speaker 1: Brooking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 2: That was a second date update from a few months ago.
Speaker 2: And our producers have been reaching out to Jeremy and Jamie,
Speaker 2: and finally one of them has responded. Only one only one.
Speaker 2: Right now, we've got Jamie back on the line. Jamie,
Speaker 2: thanks for joining us again.
Speaker 3: Hi. Hi, that's a sad one.
Speaker 4: Please don't tell me there was another fortune cookie in
Speaker 4: between the time we talked.
Speaker 3: In the eleventh we were supposed to go on a date.
Speaker 2: Yeah, what happened, Jamie?
Speaker 6: Well the eleventh was coming, that was supposed to be
Speaker 6: our date, and well I got a DM from Jeremy
Speaker 6: and it said that he had gotten involved with his.
Speaker 3: Exh So he did hook back up with his eggs.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, so you know, I'm sorry. You know, have
Speaker 5: a good story. Really, I was trying to tell your
Speaker 5: producer when he called it, I don't have any updates,
Speaker 5: and so I felt like, I, why are we doing this.
Speaker 5: I wouldn't eat guys down.
Speaker 4: Why are we shaming me for being stood up? That's
Speaker 4: not what we're doing. We just wanted to hear from me,
Speaker 4: I mean, and that's real life, man.
Speaker 2: But here's the thing, Jamie, because actually there is something
Speaker 2: else that you don't know. What turns out, Jeremy did
Speaker 2: respond to our email. He did, and he's actually on
Speaker 2: the other line wanting to say something to you. To
Speaker 2: be a surprise like that Jeremy.
Speaker 7: You there, Hey, Jamie, Wow, Hi?
Speaker 3: What are you just there to rub salt in the
Speaker 3: wound talking about how great you know.
Speaker 7: Here's what happened, though, is we went in on a
Speaker 7: couple of dates and it was like we really didn't
Speaker 7: click anymore. And I've gotten a fortune or two between
Speaker 7: now and then. It makes me think like maybe I
Speaker 7: messed up big.
Speaker 3: This is exhausting.
Speaker 2: I feel like I need to buy I need to
Speaker 2: buy stock in Panda Express just because of Jeremy and
Speaker 2: his day.
Speaker 3: Wait are you asking her out again right now?
Speaker 7: Yeah? I feel really bad about how it played out.
Speaker 7: But honestly, I think like maybe we went through all
Speaker 7: of this for a reason.
Speaker 4: Okay, you can you can know that there's no other
Speaker 4: better option out there that real solidself.
Speaker 2: What do you think, Jamie? Are you going to give
Speaker 2: Jeremy a second second chance?
Speaker 3: That'd be a third chance?
Speaker 2: Well, no, I can't count that high. I can only
Speaker 2: go two seconds.
Speaker 5: I think I just need to check my runes first. Like, honestly,
Speaker 5: your ruins, I don't know what that is. Your ruins
Speaker 5: are the pebbles You've never done rune.
Speaker 2: It sounds like you and Jeremy are men for each other.
Speaker 2: Between your fortune cookies and your runs, you guys are
Speaker 2: going to make amazing relationship.
Speaker 3: Oh, I just don't go out when Mercury is in retrogue.
Speaker 1: Don't do that.
Speaker 2: It sounds like you two.
Speaker 5: Are going to go out again, though I need to
Speaker 5: check my fortune before I do any of this.
Speaker 3: Well, I don't want to do another one.
Speaker 2: Keep us up, you guys, thanks for being on with
Speaker 2: us again.
Speaker 1: Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning
