Speaker 1: Do your favorite the Second Day podcast.
Speaker 2: Second Date up Date. I'm not sure if you guys
Speaker 2: remember this, but about six months ago, we did an
Speaker 2: awkward Tuesday phone call with a listener named Kevin who
Speaker 2: wanted to ask out his coworker and he was super
Speaker 2: nervous about it needed our advice. The call wasn't perfect, Yeah,
Speaker 2: he had some stumbles along the way, but she's sound
Speaker 2: like every call that we do absolutely flawless.
Speaker 1: I'm tried to remember what happened.
Speaker 2: In the end, she did say yes and agree to
Speaker 2: a date with him. I guess, I don't know. It
Speaker 2: was a yes, Okaytom. Now apparently they went out a
Speaker 2: few times, things fizzled, didn't quite last. So Kevin has
Speaker 2: jumped back into the beautiful oasis we call the modern
Speaker 2: dating pool. And again, that was months ago. So Kevin,
Speaker 2: how's it been. Have you had a lot of dates
Speaker 2: in that time?
Speaker 4: Like ten ten.
Speaker 2: Ten days? You do dates in the last two years?
Speaker 1: Are you doing some work? Congratulations, you're a catch.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but I actually haven't had a second date.
Speaker 1: Oh but is that from your choosing, Like maybe you
Speaker 1: didn't want to go out again with any of them.
Speaker 4: No, I would have been happy to go out with
Speaker 4: really any of them again.
Speaker 2: Oh okay, okay, that's hard.
Speaker 1: Here, we're going to help you.
Speaker 4: Yeah, they haven't been the greatest. I actually had a
Speaker 4: really bad one. Yeah. She was a nice girl, I thought,
Speaker 4: But when I walked her out to her car, opened
Speaker 4: the door and then she just suck her punched me,
Speaker 4: and then drove off.
Speaker 2: Wait what did you say? Sorry? I did not expect
Speaker 2: that sentence. That is terrible face. Did she punch you?
Speaker 2: In the face.
Speaker 4: It was actually in the back of my head. I
Speaker 4: was opening her door, and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 4: I just felt this, like, why did.
Speaker 2: You ask permission to open the door for her? Because
Speaker 2: she mayn't really if not liked that you weren't fast
Speaker 2: enough for her.
Speaker 4: Maybe so I don't know if she thought I was
Speaker 4: going to kiss her or.
Speaker 2: Your head, How are you going to kiss her? Maybe
Speaker 2: she thought that you were trying to steal her car, so.
Speaker 1: It has to be a self defense.
Speaker 2: He's not like they give me the keys.
Speaker 4: I know, wasn't that bad.
Speaker 2: I don't know. Some people give off natural grand theft
Speaker 2: auto five, so maybe you fell into that category.
Speaker 1: Just ask for you Okay, now I am yeah, confused.
Speaker 2: So with sucker punch girl, the one you want us
Speaker 2: to call for a second date date?
Speaker 1: No, we'll call her.
Speaker 2: Well, who do you want to call?
Speaker 4: I've had this really bad luck until I met Chelsea?
Speaker 2: Chelsea, Okay, it's a new girl.
Speaker 1: Hey, okay, no physical silence.
Speaker 2: I hope you'll tell us about your I'm assuming you
Speaker 2: went on a date with Chelsea.
Speaker 4: Yeah, she didn't punch me.
Speaker 2: That's actually we're perfect. We're improving.
Speaker 4: I thought it was a good sign, and we connected
Speaker 4: the best out of all of the first dates I
Speaker 4: went on.
Speaker 2: Okay, what made important?
Speaker 1: What made it the best?
Speaker 4: I just felt like I could talk to her because,
Speaker 4: like when we went on our coffee date, it was
Speaker 4: a good conversation, even though it didn't last very long. Okay,
Speaker 4: it was actually like twenty minutes.
Speaker 1: Why was it so short?
Speaker 4: You know, I'm not really sure my friends got by
Speaker 4: and by your friend? Yeah, I don't really know why.
Speaker 2: Okay, so you had a friend come by randomly and
Speaker 2: you talk to the friend a little bit, and you
Speaker 2: feel like maybe she got offended that the attention was
Speaker 2: taken away from her.
Speaker 4: I make I don't know, that would be weird to me.
Speaker 1: She got a friend in what happens if you're only
Speaker 1: there for twenty minutes and you have a five minute
Speaker 1: conversation with a friend, that's one fourth of the date.
Speaker 2: They were't trying to play it off. Hey Brooke, good
Speaker 2: to see you here.
Speaker 1: Yeah, are too successful and beautiful.
Speaker 2: I feel like I normally wouldn't ask this, but I
Speaker 2: feel like I need to know Chelsea. She's not the barista, right,
Speaker 2: You're not considering that a date. That's creative like, she
Speaker 2: doesn't work there.
Speaker 4: No, she doesn't work there.
Speaker 2: Okay, that's a good question. So how did it end? Yeah,
Speaker 2: after the twenty minutes? How did you two leave it?
Speaker 4: She said she had to do something, so we got
Speaker 4: up and left, and I yes, that was kind of
Speaker 4: weird too, because I was kind of like behind her
Speaker 4: for a couple of blocks while she what.
Speaker 2: Away the same direction.
Speaker 1: That's like the most awkward thing ever.
Speaker 2: And then she started to jog, and then you started
Speaker 2: to jog. You're like, hey, I'm gonna run up someone.
Speaker 2: Weird chases you.
Speaker 4: End up. I lost her, I lost you, I.
Speaker 1: Think, yeah, that's did she know you were back there?
Speaker 4: I don't think so. I don't know.
Speaker 2: Okay, but you weren't following her. That was just a coincidence.
Speaker 2: You have the same route home, Dude.
Speaker 1: I hate that, even when that happens with my friends
Speaker 1: and we're saying good bye at the restaurant and then
Speaker 1: we're like, yeah, oh okay, this.
Speaker 4: Later, get it? You get it all right?
Speaker 2: So how long has it been since this twenty minute date?
Speaker 4: I credit two weeks?
Speaker 1: Two weeks, okay? And have you reached out much with her?
Speaker 4: I was texting her quite a bit.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we may.
Speaker 2: We might. We might find out if you've crossed any
Speaker 2: lines or how many texts you've actually sent when we
Speaker 2: call her here. I think it's more how far he
Speaker 2: did cross them, or maybe they were right in that
Speaker 2: sweet spot. We don't know, Brooke. Remember when you said
Speaker 2: you had hope.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I do have hope as long as you didn't
Speaker 1: send her a picture of the back of her head
Speaker 1: as she was walking away.
Speaker 2: From you on the He was just trying to make
Speaker 2: sure she doesn't get sucker punched back there. I was
Speaker 2: gonna say.
Speaker 4: When I was on last time, Brooke, you told me
Speaker 4: to be more certain, so I'm really trying to be here.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Sota, he follows ladies in their car.
Speaker 1: There's a balance that we need to discuss.
Speaker 2: But maybe period and weren't trying to be weird. You
Speaker 2: were just trying to walk to your car.
Speaker 1: And maybe that's not why she's not calling me back
Speaker 1: at all.
Speaker 2: We're making stuff. Okay, Well, let's call her and use
Speaker 2: that assertion to aggressively get you a second date. When
Speaker 2: we called Chelsea right after this hold.
Speaker 5: On second date update, don't you hate it when you're
Speaker 5: on a first date and the girl says she has
Speaker 5: to go, and you accidentally follow her all the way home.
Speaker 2: Oh no, Jef, I think it.
Speaker 1: Was only three blocks to be fair, I mean enough
Speaker 1: blocks to be alarming.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but you lost her. That's what happened to our listener, Kevin.
Speaker 2: Sort of. He wasn't following his date Chelsea on purpose.
Speaker 2: They just left the coffee shop at the same time,
Speaker 2: and he coincidentally was walking behind her on the street
Speaker 2: for a long, long while.
Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, at any point, did you think I
Speaker 1: should take a different route.
Speaker 2: Or just stop for a second, No, stop hoping? He
Speaker 2: didn't think speed up, catch.
Speaker 4: Up with her.
Speaker 2: Did that thought come to your mind at all, Kevin,
Speaker 2: any of those?
Speaker 4: Yeah, well I didn't think it was that weird, And
Speaker 4: so I've been thinking about it, like while we were
Speaker 4: on hold, and I think you should tell her that
Speaker 4: I didn't intentionally walk behind her, because I really did it.
Speaker 1: Okay, So you want you want us to let her know.
Speaker 4: That, Okay, yeah, okay, okay.
Speaker 2: We're not exactly sure what happened there. We just know
Speaker 2: that the date was only twenty minutes long, which is
Speaker 2: kind of short to get to know someone that's honestly
Speaker 2: the bigger concern for me, like why did she only
Speaker 2: stay for twenty minutes? The following is a totally different story.
Speaker 2: If you've ever in a hurry, why would you even
Speaker 2: schedule a date during that time?
Speaker 1: They're just trying to squeeze it in and it's like
Speaker 1: one of those pre dates or it's just like a
Speaker 1: quick coffee, like will this be worth a full night?
Speaker 2: You didn't catfish her with like a photo of Liam Hemsworth,
Speaker 2: did you, because you do sound like a Liam to
Speaker 2: me right now kind of hunky.
Speaker 4: I'm actually bushing right now, but no.
Speaker 2: Coulda fooled me. Let's call Chelsea here. We'll see if
Speaker 2: we can get an explanation from her if she picks up,
Speaker 2: all right, here we go. Hello, Hey is this Chelsea?
Speaker 3: This is calling?
Speaker 2: This is a radio show calling called Brook and Jeffrey
Speaker 2: in the Morning. Hey, Chelsea, what what?
Speaker 4: What is this? This is?
Speaker 2: For some of us, it's fun. It's a segment we
Speaker 2: do call the second Date Update and we're looking.
Speaker 1: To Sorry, okay, she's just listening, Okay, just actively listening.
Speaker 2: By interrupting me. But let's okay, we're trying to help
Speaker 2: out one of our listeners that you went out on
Speaker 2: a date with recently. He says he had a really
Speaker 2: good time with you, but it ended kind of short.
Speaker 2: His name is Kevin.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm hoping that was a smile and not a laugh.
Speaker 2: Yeah, sens. We're calling because Kevin told us a little
Speaker 2: bit about your guys' date coffee date, coffee date, and
Speaker 2: from what we heard, it sounded pretty fun.
Speaker 1: Tame short.
Speaker 3: That was two weeks ago.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but he.
Speaker 1: Liked you, He thought you were awesome. He wanted to
Speaker 1: see you again.
Speaker 2: He said. He's been pursuing it actually and texting you,
Speaker 2: trying to organize something, but he doesn't understand why nothing's happening.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he has sent me quite a few texts, but
Speaker 3: I guess I'm confused as to why he doesn't understand
Speaker 3: why he start moving forward.
Speaker 1: Did you write him back?
Speaker 4: He?
Speaker 1: I mean, I guess we never asked if you ever
Speaker 1: texted him back?
Speaker 2: Or is it that obvious?
Speaker 3: From my perspective, he was pretty obviously.
Speaker 2: The only idea that he had about the date about
Speaker 2: why it would have ended so quickly is he did mention.
Speaker 2: One of his friends stopped by and.
Speaker 3: Said, hi, U, that's what he said. He he said
Speaker 3: a friend stops by.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, really quick.
Speaker 1: So you think that they were actually friends?
Speaker 2: Was an enemy? Was it his X?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 3: I mean, as far as I know, I don't think
Speaker 3: it was an ex. But I don't know. Thirty seconds
Speaker 3: a minute into us meeting at the coffee shop, this
Speaker 3: guy comes over and sits like right next to us,
Speaker 3: isn't looking at me at all. So I asked Kevin.
Speaker 3: I was like, Hi, can we introduce him? He's like, well, no, no, don't.
Speaker 3: He's not engaged in the conversation. He's just my emotional
Speaker 3: support friend.
Speaker 2: Emotional support friend.
Speaker 3: So originally I thought he might have been kidding, and
Speaker 3: so I laugh and he's like, it's not funny. This
Speaker 3: is Charles. I've had a couple of poor dates, and
Speaker 3: Charles is really there to just kind of help me
Speaker 3: with my confidence and communicate more effectively to you. Like
Speaker 3: I mean, I think it's maybe I had been given
Speaker 3: a heads up, I would have been more open to
Speaker 3: the idea.
Speaker 2: Emotional support friend.
Speaker 1: Vest that's amazing that he can find a friend that
Speaker 1: will take the time to go on a day with him.
Speaker 1: I mean, but I'll say I think that that says
Speaker 1: a lot about Vin, that he must be a.
Speaker 2: Good Charles sitting on his phone.
Speaker 1: Is he just listening taking.
Speaker 2: We got the impression that he just popped in real
Speaker 2: quick and left.
Speaker 3: No, oh, not at all. He was there the whole time.
Speaker 3: He wasn't really engaging in the conversation. He was just there.
Speaker 1: Did he hype Kevin up? Ever?
Speaker 2: You know, like he's not.
Speaker 3: I mean, he laughed at some of the things that
Speaker 3: Kevin said, but beyond that, there wasn't much in our action.
Speaker 1: Everybody needs a good backup la friend Charles a few
Speaker 1: tables over.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we didn't know that was how it played out.
Speaker 2: We got a little bit of a different version of
Speaker 2: that story on.
Speaker 1: The phone too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, because, oh my god, we have an emotional support
Speaker 2: friend quietly listening on the other line right now, just
Speaker 2: to make sure that I do a good job with
Speaker 2: this segment. And that person is Kevin.
Speaker 1: Kevin's here.
Speaker 3: What he's on the phone?
Speaker 2: Yeah, and he's really actually he wants to talk in
Speaker 2: this conversation. So I'm going to give him permission to
Speaker 2: jump in and say something. Okay, I don't know if
Speaker 2: he's there, Kevin.
Speaker 4: You there, Yeah, I'm here.
Speaker 1: How you doing, buddy.
Speaker 4: I'm good. I'm just I'm listening. Yeah, I don't understand
Speaker 4: what the big deal is really, Kevin.
Speaker 2: When did you get an emotional support bro? You didn't
Speaker 2: tell us about that?
Speaker 3: Well?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, a friend is a friend. He doesn't
Speaker 4: need like a title or any sounds like.
Speaker 2: You gave him a title. You you called him your
Speaker 2: emotional support friend.
Speaker 1: Keviny brought him along on the date and didn't tell
Speaker 1: us the whole time.
Speaker 4: I mean, yes, he was there, but he was there
Speaker 4: for me.
Speaker 2: Sure, Chelsea, do you see where he's coming from?
Speaker 3: I guess. I mean, but you kind of have to
Speaker 3: put my like yourself in my shoes, Kevin. It's it's
Speaker 3: a little bizarre to just have a third person there
Speaker 3: without kind of giving the heads up why and not
Speaker 3: engaging really in the conversation.
Speaker 4: Yeah, are you mad because he didn't laugh at your
Speaker 4: jokes and he has I'd be mad.
Speaker 2: That's a good question, guys, Chelsea.
Speaker 3: No, not really. I don't think I was particularly funny
Speaker 3: because I was kind of creeped out by the whole thing.
Speaker 2: I told so many jokes and.
Speaker 1: Just I mean, Kevin, do you think that maybe you
Speaker 1: could have told her prior to the date that he
Speaker 1: was coming along?
Speaker 2: Yeah, he's going to be right.
Speaker 4: I didn't need to tell her because he wasn't going
Speaker 4: to do anything. Like, he's just the wallpaper. He's going
Speaker 4: to be there now for me.
Speaker 2: So what I think, Kevin, Chelsea is saying that it's
Speaker 2: hard for her to connect romantically with you.
Speaker 3: I don't even mean romantically, I just mean as a
Speaker 3: person to person. It's just it's hard.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Kevin, it's a little bit distracting, Kevin.
Speaker 3: Maybe he's waiting for Charles to.
Speaker 5: Responds Charles speak up right now.
Speaker 4: Okay, so it's a little bit distracting. I guess it is.
Speaker 4: But like the thing is, I can tell him to
Speaker 4: do whatever I want. Does that make sense because I'm
Speaker 4: the one that's paying him? Oh? You paying? I mean okay, yeah,
Speaker 4: he was technically not facing you for the time. But
Speaker 4: I mean I could guess I could get him to
Speaker 4: like face the wall if you really wanted.
Speaker 2: Well, I do think that would be better. That's that's
Speaker 2: at least a good first step. Can we agree on that?
Speaker 1: Awkward, Kevin?
Speaker 2: I mean, people need the rest of the day. But
Speaker 2: the blindfolded a ball game, you can't see, you can't speak.
Speaker 1: Both of you what emotional support is totally normal and
Speaker 1: needs But let's get you a dog or.
Speaker 2: You know, but dogs can't laugh at jokes exactly.
Speaker 4: And it was a good date.
Speaker 2: It wasn't.
Speaker 3: Did you hear it wasn't a good date. I am
Speaker 3: so sorry, y'all. I don't understand why this was even
Speaker 3: a conversation. Is awkward and weird, and I've got to go.
Speaker 3: I hope you all have a great day.
Speaker 2: Okay. Sounds like you need an emotional support friend to
Speaker 2: deal with that.
Speaker 4: He keeps having to go and I think that's.
Speaker 1: She's not interested. And I don't know that you're going
Speaker 1: to find many that are interested when Charles.
Speaker 2: Has to be there with you. But a dog, a
Speaker 2: lot of women would be interested.
Speaker 4: Yeah, emotional for animals are kind of weird. I prefer people.
Speaker 2: Okay, Well maybe again, Maybe just follow her home again
Speaker 2: and see if she stops looking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 4: Man.
Speaker 2: I don't say this about many people, but this show
Speaker 2: is an open door for Kevin whenever he wants to
Speaker 2: come back. He is officially a friend of the show,
Speaker 2: even if he wasn't being one hundred per century full
Speaker 2: with us about his emotional support friend. I like him
Speaker 2: and I would let him follow me home anytime.
Speaker 1: Is he the only one that pushes back on dogs
Speaker 1: that people are better than dogs?
Speaker 3: They're not Kevin.
Speaker 2: People are your problem. Everybody agrees. All the people on
Speaker 2: the text board, they're saying dogs.
Speaker 1: Are better than be Yes, get the right emotional support.
Speaker 2: Actually, wait, did his emotional support friend follow Chelsea home too?
Speaker 2: I think of that.
Speaker 1: So there's two dudes following If there's.
Speaker 2: Two guys following you, now, I kind of understand the creepiness,
Speaker 2: especially when he's talking to his friend and going, what
Speaker 2: is the boy?
Speaker 1: You didn't understand the creepiness when the guy was sitting
Speaker 1: next to him staring at her.
Speaker 2: The date itself was pretty odes. Yeah, I mean he's
Speaker 2: just being supportive. No better ways, Yeah, better ways. You
Speaker 2: should have done a FaceTime totally.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 1: I mean he honestly could have had him on speakerphone
Speaker 1: and just set the phone on the You know.
Speaker 2: There's lots of life lessons to be taken from these segments,
Speaker 2: and you can go find them online wherever you get
Speaker 2: your podcast at Brook and Jeffrey and then email the show.
Speaker 2: We can call that person who wasn't calling
Speaker 4: You back, freaking Jeffrey in the morning, really
