Speaker 1: Second date update. You know those axe body spray commercials
Speaker 1: where some lanky guy sprays a little bit of axe
Speaker 1: on his shirt and then immediately thousands of gorgeous women
Speaker 1: start flocking to him from miles around.
Speaker 2: You made the axe documentaries that you watch.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, I tried that and didn't get any hot
Speaker 1: models running up. But a few sick cats did come
Speaker 1: by and cough hairballs onto my doorsteps, So that's something.
Speaker 3: Okay, were.
Speaker 1: But apparently there is a trick that men can do
Speaker 1: to make random women want to come up and approach
Speaker 1: you out in public.
Speaker 3: You don't want to talk to him, You just want
Speaker 3: the free drink.
Speaker 1: One of our listeners tried it out. His name is Mark,
Speaker 1: so let's talk to him about it. Mark, Welcome to
Speaker 1: the show.
Speaker 4: Hey, thank you for having me.
Speaker 2: Hey, you got quite the voice.
Speaker 5: Mark.
Speaker 2: What's going on?
Speaker 4: Man? Your trick? Mark?
Speaker 1: You just talk?
Speaker 4: No, No, there's a little bit more to it than that.
Speaker 1: Okay.
Speaker 4: I don't want to take all the credit for this one,
Speaker 4: but I was let in on a little secret, and
Speaker 4: believe it or not, it actually worked in my experience.
Speaker 3: Okay, So even you were skeptical before you did.
Speaker 4: It, I was. I didn't think it was going to
Speaker 4: be that easy.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, easy. Well, we have to know what this is.
Speaker 1: Can you tell us about it?
Speaker 4: A friend of mine, a female co worker, she's given
Speaker 4: me some advice. She said, the secret to get them
Speaker 4: to approach you is to just wear a pink shirt.
Speaker 2: I could see this.
Speaker 4: And apparently it's just enough of a warmth color that
Speaker 4: it gives off approachability. I don't know what it is.
Speaker 3: Yeah, met immediately say secure masculine guys.
Speaker 1: And it's funny. Every time I'm working shirt, I always
Speaker 1: get that compliment. BA says, You're doesn't count as somebody
Speaker 1: that should be taking each other for Alexis, would this
Speaker 1: work for you?
Speaker 4: Is?
Speaker 1: If you saw a guy in pink, would you be
Speaker 1: wanting to talk to him?
Speaker 3: I mean, even if I want to talk to him
Speaker 3: in like a flirty way. I could see myself drunkenly
Speaker 3: walking by being like, hey, I like your outfit.
Speaker 1: You want to steal his clothes?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it's a sweatshirt I'm going to take.
Speaker 1: Yeah, So Mark, this is something that you actually tried.
Speaker 4: Well, first off, I realized I didn't own anything pink,
Speaker 4: so I had to go yeah.
Speaker 3: Of course you did okay, and it's a flattering color.
Speaker 1: So how did this work when you were like trying
Speaker 1: to meet women?
Speaker 4: So I went to the bar with a couple of
Speaker 4: my friends, just regular night, nothing crazy, and I wasn't
Speaker 4: saying anything to anybody. Me and my guy friends were
Speaker 4: just talking and the girls, oh wow, nice shirt. Yes,
Speaker 4: and they're ignoring all my friends and my friends. They
Speaker 4: were looking at me like I was a jock.
Speaker 1: I'm a little bit surprised that it was this effective
Speaker 1: the first time that you tried it. But that's cool.
Speaker 1: You're wanting us to call one woman in particular, right,
Speaker 1: not every woman that you met that definitely not all
Speaker 1: of them.
Speaker 2: Is a woman. We're calling someone who approached you.
Speaker 4: She is her name is Tamara, and we were both
Speaker 4: waiting online for the UNISX bathroom and of course she
Speaker 4: saw my shirt.
Speaker 1: Y Amara, what's I love it? What did she say?
Speaker 1: She just said she liked it.
Speaker 4: She was just said, wow, that's a really nice shirt.
Speaker 4: You wear it well not, you know, she just called
Speaker 4: me out on it, like as if she was surprised
Speaker 4: I was even okay with wearing a shirt like most
Speaker 4: guys would never like thing.
Speaker 1: And how do you reply?
Speaker 4: To that. Well, at this point I had heard it
Speaker 4: so many times in the night. I was like, I'm
Speaker 4: gonna I'm gonna let her in on a little secret.
Speaker 4: And I said, to be honest, I'm actually wearing this
Speaker 4: shirt to meet women.
Speaker 3: What was her reponse, Why would you say that?
Speaker 4: I don't know. I wasn't trying to sabotage myself. I
Speaker 4: thought I was trying to be honest and transparent.
Speaker 1: Women do actually.
Speaker 5: Laughed laughed, Yeah, she thought, she laughed.
Speaker 2: That's kind of like saying she felt for your track.
Speaker 1: Well, she's not probably not as uptight and skeptical as
Speaker 1: you guys are. This is one of those kind women
Speaker 1: you meet out in the world.
Speaker 2: You know us. Wait, did you turn that into a
Speaker 2: hag out?
Speaker 4: So yeah, later on in the night she ended up
Speaker 4: finding me again.
Speaker 2: Oh, she's a little drunker.
Speaker 4: A little more exactly. We both had a little bit
Speaker 4: more influence going on at this point, and we found
Speaker 4: a spot where we could sit down by ourselves and
Speaker 4: actually talk, not have to shout over everybody.
Speaker 1: Yes, an intimate sit down. How did that go?
Speaker 4: It was great. We got to know each other. We
Speaker 4: talked about travel, we talked about our families, we even
Speaker 4: got to our childhood what into our childhood?
Speaker 1: Wow, had a whole therapy session.
Speaker 4: I don't know if it was the color, if it
Speaker 4: was the pink bringing it out in me, but you know,
Speaker 4: I just felt very sensitive, like yeah, fourth trade and
Speaker 4: I got it could have been that to I won't lie.
Speaker 1: So after you got done crying in each other's arms,
Speaker 1: then how did you leave it?
Speaker 4: Well, eventually she had to go. I found my friends,
Speaker 4: and then she hasn't really been replying my text. You know,
Speaker 4: we exchanged numbers and stuff, and I didn't know what
Speaker 4: to do. So I asked my coworker, a female gave
Speaker 4: me the advice in the first place, and she was like,
Speaker 4: you know, just send her a question mark like the symbol. Yeah.
Speaker 2: It's actually not the worst.
Speaker 1: It's kind of passive aggressive.
Speaker 2: Like I need more. Yeah, Like it does feel passive.
Speaker 1: You're a married woman, Brook, You're not allowed to be
Speaker 1: a part of that. She shouldn't be asking for it.
Speaker 2: Just feels angry a little bit.
Speaker 1: Maybe question totally did it work? Did she respond?
Speaker 4: All she did was.
Speaker 2: Question it isikes, that's really bad.
Speaker 1: Okay, Well that's not a good sign. We need to
Speaker 1: get to the bottom of this, We're gonna call Tamara
Speaker 1: and try and get you a pink themed edition of
Speaker 1: a Second Date update when we do it right after
Speaker 1: this Second Date update. Today we learned about the seductive
Speaker 1: magic of the pink shirt. So it's a man's secret
Speaker 1: weapon to get random women to approach you out in
Speaker 1: public and say flirty things to you like huh nice shirt,
Speaker 1: yeah hold out. I know turned up the heat with
Speaker 1: that one, and it worked for our listener Mark, not
Speaker 1: just on Brook in her low standards, but on actual
Speaker 1: women out in the real world. It's amazing.
Speaker 2: The second part, that's how.
Speaker 1: He met a woman named Tamara at a bar. They
Speaker 1: ended up hanging out the entire night after that.
Speaker 2: Oh it's so cute.
Speaker 1: But following their bar meetup, she's been almost completely avoiding
Speaker 1: his texts other than the question mark that he sent
Speaker 1: to her and she just liked it.
Speaker 3: Is that the only communication is that the only text
Speaker 3: you sent to her?
Speaker 1: What mark are you willing to every day for the
Speaker 1: rest of your life?
Speaker 2: If this works, he needs a text in pink.
Speaker 3: Yeah, can you change.
Speaker 1: The bubble to a pink bubble?
Speaker 5: People really want it.
Speaker 1: That's why he's turned to us for some radio helps.
Speaker 1: So we're going to do our best here. I'm about
Speaker 1: to dial to Maara.
Speaker 3: If our low bar is just a question mark, I
Speaker 3: think we've got this.
Speaker 1: You never know with us, though, So here we go.
Speaker 1: I'm dialing your number right now.
Speaker 4: Hello.
Speaker 1: Hi, is this Tamara?
Speaker 4: Yeah? The sense is this.
Speaker 1: We are a radio show. We're called Brook and Jeffrey
Speaker 1: in the Morning.
Speaker 2: On the show.
Speaker 5: Good morning, Hi, thanks, good morning.
Speaker 1: Sorry to surprise you like this, but we're doing a
Speaker 1: segment called a second Date update, and one of our
Speaker 1: listeners asked us to reach out to you.
Speaker 5: Okay, okay, who was it that.
Speaker 2: It's like yes, And then it just dawned on me
Speaker 2: what you just said.
Speaker 1: Maybe you don't realize what you're getting yourself into here.
Speaker 1: But a guy named Mark met you the other night
Speaker 1: out at the bar.
Speaker 5: Oh yeah, yeah, what what did he tell you?
Speaker 1: So far? Good reaction. He told us a little bit
Speaker 1: about your guys' night that you complimented him on his
Speaker 1: nice pink shirt. I'm sorry, I'm sorry to stop. Is
Speaker 1: are you in a construction zone or are you in
Speaker 1: a stairwell? Are you building a staircase?
Speaker 5: There actually is contractors working underneath me in the apartment.
Speaker 5: I think you're streaking the popcorn feelings underneath me.
Speaker 2: That's good. Nobody wants those anymore. We're not HGTV.
Speaker 5: But now it's been days of this noise.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you get I assumed that you had met somebody
Speaker 1: else that night and brought him home and locked him
Speaker 1: in a room, and now he's trying to.
Speaker 2: I think Mark would still be open that he jealous,
Speaker 2: that he wasn't the guy locked in the room.
Speaker 4: Yea.
Speaker 1: The whole reason that we're calling is Mark told us
Speaker 1: he felt like he had a connection with you.
Speaker 5: Is that all that he told you?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I mean he said that you guys talked about a
Speaker 3: lot of stuff, like you talked about your childhood and
Speaker 3: travel and.
Speaker 5: Yeah, did he tell you about our discussion about families?
Speaker 1: He said childhood. I mean he said, you guys talked
Speaker 1: about family stuff, but not you didn't get into detail.
Speaker 3: But the way you're saying it right now, it sounds
Speaker 3: like something bad.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well Mark, he definitely tried to get into detail.
Speaker 5: So we were talking about families and he asked to
Speaker 5: see a photo of my family, So I pulled one
Speaker 5: up from Christmas when we were all together, and it
Speaker 5: got really weird, and actually, honestly it got really rude.
Speaker 5: He like honed in on my sister from the picture yeah,
Speaker 5: and was like his immediate reaction was, Wow, your sister
Speaker 5: are so gorgeous, yeah, which I mean would have been
Speaker 5: would have been okay, But then he kept going.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, maybe if anything, you compliment her mother? Did
Speaker 2: you say beautiful family?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, yeah, And I'm telling you that's not a lot.
Speaker 4: You know.
Speaker 5: He was asking a ton of questions, like he wanted
Speaker 5: to know how old she was, where she lived, Like
Speaker 5: are you going to try to find her on Instagram?
Speaker 5: Why are you asking so many questions about my sister?
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, we didn't hear any of that stuff from him.
Speaker 2: But he did want to call you and your sister.
Speaker 1: Yeah, her phone number.
Speaker 5: Otherwise you probably want why.
Speaker 1: We're trying to help here, Remember, and I need to
Speaker 1: tell you at this point that Mark is on the
Speaker 1: other line listening to this call.
Speaker 2: I think he needs great.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he wants to talk to you unless your sister
Speaker 1: is there right now, in which days put her off.
Speaker 5: I mean, Mark, you had to have read my reaction
Speaker 5: when you kept asking about my sister, Like I pretty
Speaker 5: much stopped talking to you all together once you wouldn't
Speaker 5: leave it alone.
Speaker 4: I think you seriously misconstrued everything I was saying. Why
Speaker 4: I don't think I don't think.
Speaker 1: So what did she misunderstand? Mark?
Speaker 4: If you'd seen her and her family, It's like when
Speaker 4: you go buy a picture frame and there's like a
Speaker 4: stock photo in there. I mean, she's her moms knockout
Speaker 4: for like, you would never think she was a mom,
Speaker 4: that's for sure.
Speaker 5: Okay, now you're talking about my mom too, and now
Speaker 5: it's my sister and my mom would have wanted to
Speaker 5: base the whole family.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Move on to a male sitting figure in the family. Please.
Speaker 4: Okay, well that's easy too, both of the dad and
Speaker 4: her older brother or I don't know if he was
Speaker 4: older or not, but he looked like he kicked my butt.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 3: You were impressed by her family and it just came
Speaker 3: off from.
Speaker 4: Jeans. That's the word I should have used, But I
Speaker 4: was drunk. I don't know.
Speaker 1: Tamara said that she had a problem with you complementing
Speaker 1: the physical attractiveness of her sister.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and it wasn't. You weren't going on and on
Speaker 5: about my whole family. It was specifically just my sister
Speaker 5: for several minutes.
Speaker 1: What would tamara be something that he should have said
Speaker 1: that would have come off as a better reaction to
Speaker 1: seeing the photo.
Speaker 5: I wannestly anything else, but you could have said, oh
Speaker 5: my gosh, your family is so good looking. No one
Speaker 5: know you're so beautiful, Like you could have given me
Speaker 5: out of that.
Speaker 2: Do you hear that? Mark? Does that click for you?
Speaker 4: Totally? Sorry, it's clicking for me now. I was just
Speaker 4: in the moment, I was star struck by your sister's like,
Speaker 4: she's beautiful.
Speaker 5: Okay again, now he's on it again. This is insane, okay,
Speaker 5: but learning.
Speaker 4: To be honest here and tell you what was going
Speaker 4: on in the moment. And you never even told me
Speaker 4: is she older or younger than you? Too? Like I
Speaker 4: have been thinking about that, You've.
Speaker 5: Been thinking about it, You've been okay, so you've been
Speaker 5: trying to do want but honestly, not really a question.
Speaker 5: Mark isn't really trying to test me. That's like the
Speaker 5: bare minimum. But you've been thinking about my sister and
Speaker 5: her age since then. This is creepy.
Speaker 1: He's just trying to get to know your family. I'm
Speaker 1: sure I'm.
Speaker 4: Trying to avoid being creepy because I want to make
Speaker 4: sure she's not like super young or something. What a question?
Speaker 2: You shut your mouth.
Speaker 5: You don't need to make sure of that because you're
Speaker 5: never going to meet her.
Speaker 3: Well, that's because she's not invited on their next day.
Speaker 1: Okay, Mark, you need to just be quiet. Let me
Speaker 1: try and help you here for a second if I can.
Speaker 1: I don't think you can Tamara. As a guy, it's
Speaker 1: difficult to be in a situation where you're meeting somebody
Speaker 1: new and they show you a picture of a gorgeous
Speaker 1: woman and it happens to be your sister like that,
Speaker 1: It's a trap. It's a trap. It's hard to know
Speaker 1: the right thing when you're drinking. That is the right
Speaker 1: compliment to give you?
Speaker 2: Would you say the right thing?
Speaker 3: When he was sober on the phone, Jes, you can't
Speaker 3: use alcohol as.
Speaker 1: I'm sure that he's pounding alcohol right now. He's totally
Speaker 1: nervous and fluster because the truth is, to Mara, the
Speaker 1: reason why he reached out to us is because he
Speaker 1: likes you that much that he's willing to do whatever
Speaker 1: it takes to see you again.
Speaker 5: No, I I think at this point, I don't trust
Speaker 5: that he just wants to get to my sister through me,
Speaker 5: So there's no way that that's happening.
Speaker 1: If you don't trust what I say. Let Mark tell you, Mark,
Speaker 1: this is your a chance.
Speaker 4: I bluff? Do I fold?
Speaker 1: I don't even know man, Mark, Are you texting the
Speaker 1: girl that told you to wear that pink shirt for advice?
Speaker 1: I want what to say here.
Speaker 4: I don't think she would help. You probably did this whole.
Speaker 5: Deeper for me now you've dug it deep enough on
Speaker 5: your own.
Speaker 3: It is It is, honestly like one big pink grave honesty.
Speaker 1: Is there another color that can fix a yellow where
Speaker 1: it feels like the moment has come and gone?
Speaker 2: So it's a valiant effort. Jeffrey to Mary.
Speaker 1: We were going to offer to send you out on
Speaker 1: a date, but it sounds like it's a no.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I think all right, okay, So in that case, are
Speaker 1: you cool if you just give him your sister's Instagram now,
Speaker 1: so you just text me to it.
Speaker 5: You know he's already found shocked if he had not
Speaker 5: found her at all.
Speaker 1: Right, well, good, I'm glad you shipped them. Congratulations. It's
Speaker 1: looking Jeffrey in the morning. If we ever get an update,
Speaker 1: update email from Mark saying, Hey, I found her sister
Speaker 1: and it way better. Do I reply to that email, Brook,
Speaker 1: or pretend like I didn't see it?
Speaker 2: You reply because you love it.
Speaker 3: I don't know what to do if someone shows you
Speaker 3: a hot woman.
Speaker 1: I said, if you're drinking as a guy and you're
Speaker 1: presented with a hot woman and you're in the moment,
Speaker 1: you might say the wrong thing. As a dude, we
Speaker 1: tend to make those mistakes.
Speaker 3: Okay, but you don't say the wrong thing over and
Speaker 3: over and over and.
Speaker 1: Yeah, he doubled down. So it's whatever. That relationship is
Speaker 1: probably never gonna happen. It wouldn't it be interesting if
Speaker 1: Tamara like found somebody in Mark's family he had a
Speaker 1: secret brother. Tamara is dating Mark's dad. Mark is dating
Speaker 1: her sister. Mark's mom is with Tamara's brother.
Speaker 2: Trying to feel too much like my hometown. I don't
Speaker 2: think I'm here for it.
Speaker 1: Talk about a weird Thanksgiving? Yeah, somehow they're like stepsisters.
Speaker 2: It's actually pretty easy Thanksgiving. There'd only be like four
Speaker 2: people there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Mark, Tamara, we have her fingers crossed for your
Speaker 1: Both of your family is best And all of this
Speaker 1: started because of one pink shirt.
Speaker 3: Everyone's going to be in pink at the bar.
Speaker 1: But if you ever need help with your dating live
Speaker 1: email the show. We'll call that person that's not calling
Speaker 1: you back. You can check out all of our Second
Speaker 1: Day podcast wherever you get yours at Brook and Jeffrey
