Speaker 1: Second dat day. I'm pretty excited because we've never done
Speaker 1: this before where a couple has met on a very
Speaker 1: reputable website. Okay, Ashley Madison dot com, so let's do this.
Speaker 1: Welcome to this show, Ashley. Oh oh wait, wait, her
Speaker 1: name's Ashley. I must screw that up in my notes.
Speaker 1: I had that as where you met. I didn't realize
Speaker 1: that was your name. Really interesting. Okay, well this isn't
Speaker 1: going to be as exciting as I thought. Okay, unless Ashley,
Speaker 1: did you perchance meet your special from one on Ashley Madison?
Speaker 1: Are you rich? No? I didn't you guys for my
Speaker 1: name is Ashley. That's good. So you're both single, you
Speaker 1: and the other person. Yeah, we're both single. Um, and
Speaker 1: we met on the app called Hinge Ashley Madison's nerdy
Speaker 1: little brother. Yes, that's how I like to think of Okay,
Speaker 1: stood out about Brian on Hinge. Brian was really sweet.
Speaker 1: Like see, I'm used to really flashy guys like narcissists,
Speaker 1: you know, show what kind of cars they have, all
Speaker 1: the stuff they have, and I'm super over that and
Speaker 1: I am not that girl at all. And Brian was
Speaker 1: really sweet. Okay, when you were looking for Brian, you
Speaker 1: were looking for something different than what you had been
Speaker 1: dating it like a man who doesn't drive a car. Maybe,
Speaker 1: you know, sure, tell us more about this simple man, Brian. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like in his profile, I mean the things that stood
Speaker 1: out to me. He believes in monogamy. He said, like
Speaker 1: what his date would look like, and he said it
Speaker 1: would be to have a picnic in his living room
Speaker 1: with candlelight. Like he just seemed light and sweet, you know,
Speaker 1: really down to earth. Yeah, I mean he sounds just
Speaker 1: like you said. Absolutely. Yeah, So did you did you
Speaker 1: hit him up or did he message you? I messaged
Speaker 1: him first, but then we just got along right away.
Speaker 1: He wasn't pushing. He just felt like a safe guy. Okay,
Speaker 1: So what's a safe date with Brian? Yeah? It was
Speaker 1: really cute. So it was my idea for the first
Speaker 1: date because I volunteer at a zoo, and I thought
Speaker 1: that we could walk around the zoo and we could
Speaker 1: get to know each other and talk and at the
Speaker 1: same time, we have some things to look at. And
Speaker 1: plus it's a chance for you, like show off some knowledge, right,
Speaker 1: because I'm assuming you know a lot about the animals
Speaker 1: there and how the zoo works. And if there's awkward silence,
Speaker 1: there's always something to talk about. Yeah, you know, well
Speaker 1: we're speculating a lot over here, but tell us how
Speaker 1: it actually went, Ashley. Yes, and because I'm a volunteer,
Speaker 1: I got him in for free. Yeah. But because of that,
Speaker 1: I you know, I had to wear my vest, so
Speaker 1: it's my name Fag and yeah, okay, okay. So as
Speaker 1: we're walking around we're having fun, the parents and the
Speaker 1: kids would stop, like if they needed something. The parents
Speaker 1: would ask me questions about the animals, and I would
Speaker 1: answer the questions and then he could do Maybe think
Speaker 1: he could find that a little bit annoying that the
Speaker 1: date keeps getting paused for you to answer other people's questions. Um,
Speaker 1: I don't think he was annoyed, because if he were annoyed,
Speaker 1: then he probably would n't be the kind of guy
Speaker 1: I wouldn't want him be with, the kind of guy
Speaker 1: that like wants your attention. Oh, I mean, like she's
Speaker 1: doing her thing, Like he knew going into it that
Speaker 1: that's what you were going to do, and non this
Speaker 1: was a surprise. Yeah, but it probably feels like less
Speaker 1: of a date more like, yeah, were you able to
Speaker 1: like connect in a romantic way at all. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: I believe that you should really get to know someone
Speaker 1: as a friend first, and then from that, if we,
Speaker 1: like we had mutual respect for each other, then something
Speaker 1: could come from it. But I thought this was a
Speaker 1: really sweet way to let him into my life, and
Speaker 1: he liked that. You guys like it was cute, Like,
Speaker 1: I know he had fun, but you're with us, like,
Speaker 1: why is it he calling you back? Yeah? I mean yeah,
Speaker 1: were there any awkward or moments that stood out from
Speaker 1: the date that could have been a red flag? The
Speaker 1: only thing? You know, So we stopped at I don't
Speaker 1: know if you guys know this animal called cappabara. Yeah,
Speaker 1: they're super cute. Yeah, it's a South American animal. And
Speaker 1: we were there and we were looking at them, and
Speaker 1: he said he had spent time in South America, and
Speaker 1: you know, we just were having a conversation. This like
Speaker 1: a nine year old kid was there with their parents.
Speaker 1: So I just challenged Brian and the nine year old
Speaker 1: kid to see who could spell it. Put him on
Speaker 1: the spot. How did he do? He didn't win, but
Speaker 1: he didn't. Oh, it sounds like you should probably date
Speaker 1: that nine year old and shound more to cash. Wait,
Speaker 1: why was that awkward though? Did he actually was he
Speaker 1: actually upset that he got beat by a kid. It's
Speaker 1: just the only moment that I thought maybe he fell
Speaker 1: out of plea. I could see that being kind of
Speaker 1: a masculating to me. If my date challenged me to
Speaker 1: a spelling contest against an elementary school child supposed to
Speaker 1: be fun and entertaining, after talking to kids all night
Speaker 1: over him, I'd be done. Yeah, So how did things
Speaker 1: end with you and Brian? Well, we walked around a
Speaker 1: little bit more, but he said he had to leave
Speaker 1: to go to his niece's piano recital to do more
Speaker 1: kid things, so we obviously doesn't hate him. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: didn't have to like battle pianos with her. He just
Speaker 1: had to sit there and listen. I mean it's a
Speaker 1: valid reason to leave, Yeah, you know, I mean it
Speaker 1: matched the personnel of this person that I'm going out.
Speaker 1: So I walked into the gate and we hugged and
Speaker 1: it was nice, and he left and I haven't heard
Speaker 1: from him. Have you texted or called? Yeah? I have,
Speaker 1: but I don't want to seem like kind of crazy.
Speaker 1: So yeah, it sounds like there was not a lot
Speaker 1: of romance on the date. It could have been fun,
Speaker 1: but that's not the reason not to call someone back up.
Speaker 1: I don't know, you don't be in the friend zone,
Speaker 1: you don't feel a romantic connection. That's why you don't
Speaker 1: call people back here exactly. That stuff would never happen
Speaker 1: on Ashley Madison. So well, I mean maybe there was
Speaker 1: something else that we don't even know about yet, and
Speaker 1: so yeah, that's true. Let's get Brian a call. We'll
Speaker 1: play a song first, we'll come back, and then we'll
Speaker 1: get your second date up date. Okay, okay, thank you
Speaker 1: guys for quick recap of Ashley's first date with Brian,
Speaker 1: which included an hour and a half of walking, a
Speaker 1: detailed zoology lesson on the South American Capabara, and of course,
Speaker 1: a romantic spelling contest against a nine year old boy.
Speaker 1: That is hot. Yeah, I mean when you recap it
Speaker 1: like that, that's because Ashley took Brian to the zoo
Speaker 1: where she volunteers, and so they walked around together. She
Speaker 1: had to answer buns of questions to children and parents
Speaker 1: along the way about the different animals, and it ended
Speaker 1: with Brian saying he had to go attend his niece's
Speaker 1: piano recital. Now he's not calling her back, which I
Speaker 1: don't know if you know this. I know you're an
Speaker 1: expert on animal behavior, but that's very common for the
Speaker 1: modern male homo sapience. Yes they do. Oh you really
Speaker 1: are an expert. Wow. We're going to our best to
Speaker 1: get Brian on the phone and get some answers for you.
Speaker 1: How you feeling I'm feeling nervous. Yeah, I know, I
Speaker 1: know he's stitching me, but I just don't know why. Right.
Speaker 1: The the thing that I would imagine it is hard
Speaker 1: for you, is it? This is the first time you're
Speaker 1: trying to date, like basically a nice guy, right, Yeah,
Speaker 1: and sometimes the nice guys are just as big a jerk.
Speaker 1: This is the true ones that aren't considered nice guys.
Speaker 1: I mean, that's just the hard lesson of it. I
Speaker 1: consider myself a nice jerk. Yeah. So you know, just
Speaker 1: don't be too disappointed or like give up hope or
Speaker 1: anything after that. You know, Brooke, you're trying to give
Speaker 1: her a lot of hope. So let's try and stay
Speaker 1: as optimistic as we can. But we're gonna dial his
Speaker 1: number and see what Brian has to say. Okay, here
Speaker 1: we go. Okay, Hello, Hey, is this Brian? Yeah? Who's this?
Speaker 1: What's up? Brian? My name is jeff from the radio
Speaker 1: show Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning. Uh. Sorry, I
Speaker 1: don't know the show. That's okay, dude, I barely know
Speaker 1: it either. Yeah. No, that that's that's a lot of people. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's a bunch of people in this room, and we're
Speaker 1: all very interested in a date that you went on
Speaker 1: recently with one of our listeners named Ashley. Um, remember
Speaker 1: was that yours? That your stomach? No, I think it's
Speaker 1: just shocked. I'd be shocked too, like, all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: we're talking about this. I get it, I get it. Well,
Speaker 1: it's just wait, are you saying that she reached out
Speaker 1: to you guys? Yeah, it's part of a segment that
Speaker 1: we do called a second date Update. Well we haven't
Speaker 1: had a are you guys trying to find out why
Speaker 1: I don't want us? I mean yeah, we're hoping to
Speaker 1: get her at a second date with you because that's
Speaker 1: what she wants and she's a little bit confused about
Speaker 1: why it's not happening yet. Well, it's kind of weird
Speaker 1: what she did. Did she tell you about it? Yeah?
Speaker 1: We thought it was sweet. She said that she took
Speaker 1: you to the zoo or she volunteers, and she volunteered
Speaker 1: Wall on the date as well, so she had to
Speaker 1: answer like a lot of questions and stuff, but she
Speaker 1: thought you had a great time. I mean, she did
Speaker 1: tell us about what happened with you in the nine
Speaker 1: year old kid mishap. Oh, yeah, that's cute. Yeah you
Speaker 1: just let him win though, right guy. And that's well,
Speaker 1: you know when you can't spell foliage, Yeah, I thought
Speaker 1: you were trying to spell Capebara. Well she gave me
Speaker 1: a few words, but I'm not really a great speller,
Speaker 1: so I had trouble with him. She was just telling us,
Speaker 1: not because she was still judging you about your spelling,
Speaker 1: just simply because she was like, oh, that's the only
Speaker 1: weird thing that I can remember that happened. She was
Speaker 1: just trying to have fun with you in that moment.
Speaker 1: It wasn't meant to embarrass you or anything. I mean,
Speaker 1: was that like a deal breaker for you. There's not
Speaker 1: really any deal breakers. The main thing was that she
Speaker 1: was like a news source. She was giving out misinformation. Mima. Sorry,
Speaker 1: I don't know why you have to like put down
Speaker 1: news sources. Journalists work really hard in this country. Okay, well,
Speaker 1: please don't call yourself a journalist. That's the meaning to
Speaker 1: actual journalist. I agree with you, but I went to
Speaker 1: journalism school, and I know, look, I mean, Brian, we're
Speaker 1: just trying to help get some answers here. Because you
Speaker 1: said that she was giving up misinformation? Do you mean
Speaker 1: giving misinformation to you or just in general to everybody?
Speaker 1: Should like the group that we were walking around with,
Speaker 1: what do you mean? Like, she's like, that's a capabara
Speaker 1: and it wasn't a capabara, Like what are you talking about?
Speaker 1: One of the kids asked about miss Beetle and one
Speaker 1: of the displays, and the display itself wasn't labeled, and
Speaker 1: so she just called it a pirate Beatle. Kids like
Speaker 1: what She's like, yeah, II Beatle, believe it. I don't
Speaker 1: even know if the Beatles, Like he knows his Beatle species.
Speaker 1: I just thought she was trying to be funny. But
Speaker 1: this kid's like trying to learn something. So I guess
Speaker 1: the reason why it hit me so hard is because
Speaker 1: I used to go to the zoo as a kid
Speaker 1: with my parents, So I was like, but he really
Speaker 1: might be like genuinely curious about what that thing is.
Speaker 1: So you were upset that she made up a name
Speaker 1: of a beatle and instead of just saying I don't know,
Speaker 1: is that what you're saying? Well, yeah, but this is
Speaker 1: not just one time we were walking by porcupines and
Speaker 1: she's like, oh, those are arrow pigs. Yeah, I mean,
Speaker 1: come on, everybody knows that was just a joke. Though, No,
Speaker 1: these kids were legit writing down arrow pig. She never
Speaker 1: corrected them. Does she know what they are? She doesn't.
Speaker 1: We walked by a train manthis if she calls them
Speaker 1: a wobble stick. Yeah, she's really good with the nicknames.
Speaker 1: I mean, there are animals should be renamed at this
Speaker 1: point thousands of years. I get that was a little
Speaker 1: bit weird, and you were worried about the kids education,
Speaker 1: but like, how does that affect you romantically? Like how
Speaker 1: how you bonded with her? Well, I'm a stickler for
Speaker 1: this stuff, So I don't really respect that sort of stuff. Oh, Like,
Speaker 1: I get if it's if you're trying to be funny,
Speaker 1: but if you generally don't know, be like, I don't know,
Speaker 1: let me go find somebody who does. That's my job.
Speaker 1: I don't think that Ashley has any idea that you
Speaker 1: felt this way during the entire tour of the zoo
Speaker 1: Listen though, genuinely, she's awesome. I would love to be like, Hey,
Speaker 1: look like let's do a second date. But well that's
Speaker 1: perfect because now you can do that right now, she's
Speaker 1: on the other line listening. You didn't listen to I
Speaker 1: didn't want to hear that, Jeff, Ashley, I like it.
Speaker 1: Talk to Brian. Hey, guys, hey Brian. All right. I
Speaker 1: had no listening. I'm so grateful. Yeah, you're upset because
Speaker 1: I'm having fun with kids, But you call the lobster
Speaker 1: a drug and shrimp? Was that real? Does it sound better?
Speaker 1: You should be in charge of naming all the world
Speaker 1: animals kids book. I do think it's worth asking, though, Ashley,
Speaker 1: did you really not know the names of the animals
Speaker 1: because you're a volunteer or are you just having fun?
Speaker 1: It's a lobster. Who wouldn't know the name of a lobster?
Speaker 1: Some people never see Ashley. I know that I I
Speaker 1: know the name of the animals, but like some of
Speaker 1: them are made up, and I just don't think it's
Speaker 1: that big of a deal. Like if I can get
Speaker 1: a laugh out of these kids while they're at the zoo.
Speaker 1: That that makes me feel good, you know, So it's
Speaker 1: not coming from a bad place, Brian. I mean, these
Speaker 1: kids get a laugh, but they do flunk out a
Speaker 1: fourth grade. I know it sounds petty, but I just
Speaker 1: had to say something because it bugs me. Yeah, Brian,
Speaker 1: you're being like a grumpy puss. They're like a link
Speaker 1: that you can find out the zoo. That's yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but hold on all seriousness, what is he supposed to do,
Speaker 1: like call you out in the middle of a group
Speaker 1: like you know, it's gonna make you look unprofessional. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm not going to stop you in the middle of
Speaker 1: your thing. You just just bug me, And I'm sorry
Speaker 1: for not talking about it. Okay, Yeah this guy and
Speaker 1: that shows that he respects you at your job, even
Speaker 1: if you're doing a terrible job at it. I mean,
Speaker 1: I think you're making the zoo fun actually, But Brian
Speaker 1: does bring up a good point, like maybe you she
Speaker 1: should also include correct information like can you do both
Speaker 1: for the kids? Yeah, I mean I can do that.
Speaker 1: Maybe Brian should be volunteering at the zoo. You're like
Speaker 1: a comedic duo. You get the punchlines and he brings
Speaker 1: Yeah is he and Brian job you can actually set
Speaker 1: that up for you guys right now and send you
Speaker 1: on your second date and pay for that date. Well,
Speaker 1: you know what, I don't think that's a bad idea.
Speaker 1: And what if I call them penguins and then she
Speaker 1: called them it's just chickens, black and whitist. You know,
Speaker 1: you guys have to work on your stick a little bit. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'd actually just caught them ice chickens, and I hope
Speaker 1: it's funny, all right, But I'm hearing I'm hearing the
Speaker 1: connection happening. Are we doing this? Ashley? Are you up
Speaker 1: for it? Um? Yeah, I'm up for it. Okay, Brian,
Speaker 1: is that a yes from you? Second? Datus approvius? Oh,
Speaker 1: he's bringing the science science successful second date update. Congratulations guys,
Speaker 1: Thank you. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning,
