Speaker 1: Second, d D think for a second. What do you
Speaker 1: think it's the farthest you've ever traveled to go out
Speaker 1: on a first date? Oh? Wow, first date? I don't know.
Speaker 1: First one time I went all the way down to
Speaker 1: the lobby of my fifth floor apartment. That the farthest
Speaker 1: you've got. Yeah, we have a vending machine, a water
Speaker 1: fountain down there, cheap couch. I mean, what more do
Speaker 1: you need to have a great date? That's true, A
Speaker 1: simple man, that's right. But one of our listeners says
Speaker 1: he actually boarded a plane in order to take a
Speaker 1: woman out on their first night, and now he needs
Speaker 1: our help. So his name's Kirk. Kirk, what's your credit
Speaker 1: card number? Or no, sorry, that's not what you ask Kirk?
Speaker 1: How are you? What's the person's name that she that
Speaker 1: you went to go see? The girl's name is Jillian
Speaker 1: Jillian Wait. I have a question, can we just know
Speaker 1: run off the bat. Are you boarding the plane because
Speaker 1: you're going to see her somewhere or are you both
Speaker 1: getting on the plane together. No, had boarded a plane
Speaker 1: to go see her, okay far away. I've all listened
Speaker 1: on this twice with like listeners and fans from other
Speaker 1: parts and I've never been able to pull the trigger.
Speaker 1: It's just too scary. You're gonna go to England. Imagine
Speaker 1: if it doesn't go well first day, Now I have
Speaker 1: a week in England or wherever. Oh that sounds terrible,
Speaker 1: God by yourself, by yourself. It would just be awful
Speaker 1: flying without a chaperone on the plane. It's about the Kirk.
Speaker 1: Tell us more about Jillian. How do you guys mean? Well,
Speaker 1: it was the typical online left site thing, and I
Speaker 1: was talking to her for like a month or so,
Speaker 1: and it was weird because I started catching feelings for
Speaker 1: her like super quick. Yeah, why do you think? Like?
Speaker 1: What about her? So? I was in a relationship for
Speaker 1: eight years prior, and it was kind of like maybe
Speaker 1: a bounce back thing for me, But it was a
Speaker 1: little bit more than that, you know, I really really
Speaker 1: started to love her. Yeah you can read you can
Speaker 1: rebound in your own zip code. Yeah, and you can
Speaker 1: do it like right after the breakup. Youn't got to
Speaker 1: wait eight years? Ye? Did I hear you say you
Speaker 1: started to love her? What? I was beginning to fall
Speaker 1: in love with her for sure, without even having met
Speaker 1: her yet. I've heard that happened a lot though. I mean, like,
Speaker 1: how often are you guys talking? Oh? We were talking
Speaker 1: like every night before we go to bed. Oh you remember,
Speaker 1: so excited to talk to each other. The chemistry, the
Speaker 1: chemistry was amazing. But the thing is that I've never
Speaker 1: video chatted her, so it was all just talking. You
Speaker 1: maybe a catfish. I don't want to say that, bro,
Speaker 1: but yeah, it's definitely a red flag. It like when
Speaker 1: you actually flew out to see her. No, man, I
Speaker 1: undertell you I probably should a video chatted her. Oh no, bro,
Speaker 1: why because you needed to reveal something or what? No? No, no, no,
Speaker 1: it was just that she told me the week before
Speaker 1: I went out there that she was going to be
Speaker 1: at a hotel speaking for her job or something like that,
Speaker 1: and I thought it would be a cool idea for
Speaker 1: me to just jump on a flight. And she was
Speaker 1: that I would just meet up with her. Oh wait,
Speaker 1: as like a surprise. Yeah. I was just surprised her,
Speaker 1: you know, because we've been talking and I thought it
Speaker 1: was something in my heart told me I could do this,
Speaker 1: you know. So wow. Okay, if you guys are that bonded, bro,
Speaker 1: and do you feel that I exclusive and you guys
Speaker 1: know everything I mean, there's so much risk there, like, yeah,
Speaker 1: I've never been to this woman's hometown. She doesn't know
Speaker 1: you're coming. Like, so, but you actually flew out and
Speaker 1: you saw her. What was that Like? I flew out there,
Speaker 1: I went to the hotel, I blended in with the crowd,
Speaker 1: and I you know, I've never seen it before. I start,
Speaker 1: I know if she looked like you didn't even have
Speaker 1: to blend in. She has no idea what you guys
Speaker 1: look like? You guys video and like, what are you
Speaker 1: doing just in the crowd, asking like, hey, do you
Speaker 1: know who Julian is? No, I was just gonna be
Speaker 1: like waiting for them to announce her. Oh she's gonna
Speaker 1: go up on stage and do a talk and stage Julian,
Speaker 1: I love you. That would have been so cute, right,
Speaker 1: Maybe those thoughts all right through my mind. I played
Speaker 1: it cool. I played it cool. And the thing is this,
Speaker 1: when and I heard her voice, I knew it was her.
Speaker 1: And going back to what you said earlier, she wasn't
Speaker 1: who she said she was. She didn't look anything like her.
Speaker 1: Oh like maybe she was using a different person in
Speaker 1: her pictures, like that much difference. Yeah, this photoshop and
Speaker 1: it's like, oh, you know, but full blown catfish. So
Speaker 1: now you've taken a flight to go see this woman,
Speaker 1: You're in a completely different town. What do you do?
Speaker 1: Do you stick around? Man? Of course I stick around. Man.
Speaker 1: I had so many feelings. I was angry, I was
Speaker 1: lied to. Yeah, so I had to speak to her.
Speaker 1: It was like, no way I was gonna leave without
Speaker 1: talking to her. And I saw her and I just said, um, surprised.
Speaker 1: She recognize your voice? Run away? Recognize my voice right away?
Speaker 1: She turned around and it was so awkward because she
Speaker 1: started crying. Oh sweetie. So now I'm like from anger
Speaker 1: to like feeling bad. Yeah. I mean she's doing it
Speaker 1: because she's like self conscious, right, I mean, why else
Speaker 1: would you pretend to look like somebody else? She prettier?
Speaker 1: Was she just like a way prettier? Were you like
Speaker 1: holding some onions right up to her face? It's not
Speaker 1: usually because you're a victorious secret model in the sky.
Speaker 1: After she started crying and I was like, man, let's talk.
Speaker 1: So I went to the car and we started talking.
Speaker 1: Told her how I felt, and I said, do you
Speaker 1: want give me a call later after night and we'll
Speaker 1: have some drinks or something. At the hotel. Okay, so
Speaker 1: you guys ended on a good note then that's good. Yeah,
Speaker 1: we lived on a good note, just like the thing
Speaker 1: connection we had when we were talking to the beginning.
Speaker 1: It kind of like fiddled in again. That's how you
Speaker 1: know it's real, bro. Yeah, and then we talked a
Speaker 1: few times when I got home. But she really doesn't
Speaker 1: know how I feel right now, you know. Like I said,
Speaker 1: I can still want to talk to her, so she
Speaker 1: doesn't know that, Okay, okay, and so now we're gonna
Speaker 1: call her and let her know how you feel. That's perfect.
Speaker 1: Do you want to see her? And uh, maybe you
Speaker 1: know if we do see so you can fly out
Speaker 1: to see me this time. Okay. We don't have any
Speaker 1: plane tickets in the radio station's budget though, that's going
Speaker 1: to come from you bus though we could bust her.
Speaker 1: Oh rayhound, so cute. I'm I'm so excited. Yeah, wanted
Speaker 1: to see you guys, falling a baby. We'll play a song.
Speaker 1: I'll go talk to the radio station accountant to make
Speaker 1: sure that we can finance this thing. But then we'll
Speaker 1: call Jillian for you and try and get your second
Speaker 1: date up date. Okay, Oh perfect? Man? All right. Hold
Speaker 1: on second catfished. You know a woman who lives a
Speaker 1: full plane ride away. He shows up to surprise her
Speaker 1: and discovers she looks nothing like her profile picks, but
Speaker 1: he's still DTF. I L what's what's the I L
Speaker 1: down to full all in love. Welcome to the life
Speaker 1: of our listener, Kirk, who's asking us to call Jillian today?
Speaker 1: I know that I'm so excited for Kirk. I'm just
Speaker 1: so excited about this. I think Jillian's going to be
Speaker 1: over the moon when we call her. Okay, no pressure, now,
Speaker 1: good work. But according to your email, Kirk, the reason
Speaker 1: that you want to do this second date is because
Speaker 1: with the whole long distance thing happening, you only talked
Speaker 1: a couple of times since you've been back from that
Speaker 1: trip over the last two weeks. Like, is that worrying you?
Speaker 1: Kind of because we used to talk every day. So
Speaker 1: if you haven't told her that you are okay with
Speaker 1: like her not being the person she said she was originally,
Speaker 1: you know, she probably just thinks that you're still mad
Speaker 1: at her. She may be still embarrassed, you know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know, it took me a little bit time to
Speaker 1: process everything, so I gee, when you're coming from dude,
Speaker 1: that's valid. That's valid. And maybe there's a chance that
Speaker 1: she's not dt F I L she's just DTF would
Speaker 1: that be? Okay? Down the fall way? What are you
Speaker 1: talking about? Actually, I don't know what I'm talking about,
Speaker 1: but either way, I know we're all rooting for you. Here,
Speaker 1: I'm a dal Jillian's number right now, right, all right,
Speaker 1: let's get hello. Hi. Is this Jillian speaking? Hey Jillian,
Speaker 1: my name is jeff from the radio show Brooke and
Speaker 1: Jeffrey in the Morning. Do you have Brooke and Jeffrey
Speaker 1: in the Morning on the radio where you live? Oh? Yeah,
Speaker 1: we didn't ask that. Um, I'm sorry. Who is this hi? Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: it's fine, that's all right. Um. We're we're morning radio
Speaker 1: show and we're doing a segment called a Second Date
Speaker 1: Update that we'd like you to be a part of. Well,
Speaker 1: actually too late, you're a part of it. Yeah, congratulations, show.
Speaker 1: We're really excited to talk to you, Jillian or I
Speaker 1: am anyway? Um? Okay, Well, I'm glad you're excited. But
Speaker 1: I don't know you. Okay, Yeah, that's true. You don't
Speaker 1: know us, but you do know somebody that listens to
Speaker 1: our show, and that asked us to call you. And
Speaker 1: his name's Kirk. What yeah, yeah, right? Remember seeing Kirk
Speaker 1: not too long ago? Yeah? Okay? Was that exciting and
Speaker 1: he flew out to see you? Is this like payback
Speaker 1: or something? No? No, no, no, no, let's not payback
Speaker 1: ground Kirk. We talked to him and he just told
Speaker 1: us the story about how you guys met online and
Speaker 1: you talked for like a month or so. Then he
Speaker 1: flew out to surprise you, and that's when he found
Speaker 1: out you weren't quite the same person as you put
Speaker 1: in your profile pictures. I'm just wondering, how how did
Speaker 1: you feel when he showed up that day and saw you.
Speaker 1: I was mortified. Yeah, you know, I didn't know he
Speaker 1: was coming and he was there like in my face.
Speaker 1: Yeah it was. I mean I would feel almost ambushed.
Speaker 1: I mean because you you had been betraying you know.
Speaker 1: Somebody else said totally right. I guess I want to ask, like,
Speaker 1: has your feelings changed since you saw him, because he
Speaker 1: said you guys sat down for drinks afterwards and things
Speaker 1: seem to go pretty well. They yeah, I mean my yeah,
Speaker 1: I would say my feelings have changed a little bit.
Speaker 1: So I mean, he he obviously had to process the
Speaker 1: whole physical part was different right than he expected, and
Speaker 1: you can understand that that would be a pretty big shock.
Speaker 1: I was taken it back as well. Yeah, appearance totally absolutely.
Speaker 1: Oh oh wait, Kirk looked different than you thought he
Speaker 1: was going to look. I mean in his picture he
Speaker 1: didn't have glasses and he's got glasses. Okay, that's okay.
Speaker 1: Well a lot of people, like I wear glasses sometimes
Speaker 1: and sometimes I don't, like I mean, yeah, I do
Speaker 1: prefer without the glasses. Yeah, I mean, is that a
Speaker 1: joke like he clark pented you or something. I mean
Speaker 1: when he had his glasses on, he kind of looked
Speaker 1: older and like that character there's a South Park character
Speaker 1: I can't remember his name, Ester Mackie. Yes, the guy
Speaker 1: who's like that guy. Ye? Yes, yes, he wears glasses
Speaker 1: and he reminded me of that characters. Good picture to paint.
Speaker 1: I also like projecting your own feelings like on him. Hey,
Speaker 1: I am not blaming him, but he didn't look like
Speaker 1: his picture either. Okay, that makes me laugh. He said
Speaker 1: that you used a completely different picture on your profile,
Speaker 1: like it wasn't even you at all. Yeah, and we've
Speaker 1: been through that already. But you're asking me how I
Speaker 1: felt about him, and I'm telling you he looked older,
Speaker 1: maybe like eight pounds heavier. Okay, what are you saying that?
Speaker 1: You like? You are attracted to him, it's just different.
Speaker 1: Oh wow, we had a big connection on the phone. Yeah, yeah, okay, okay.
Speaker 1: And so glasses and eight pounds ruins that. It's not
Speaker 1: what I think we were expecting when we called you
Speaker 1: at all. And look, Jillian, I know that Kirk already
Speaker 1: surprised you once, but he's actually going to be surprising
Speaker 1: you again right now because he's been quietly listening on
Speaker 1: the other line and he wants to talk to you. Hello.
Speaker 1: Oh come on, yeah, cook, what are you doing? What?
Speaker 1: What am I doing? I cannot believe he just said
Speaker 1: all that glasses and eight pounds heavier, and I mean,
Speaker 1: it's still me, It's still me in the picture, the
Speaker 1: picture that you had. What even new? But I I
Speaker 1: was remorseful for that. She just feel bad. She knows
Speaker 1: she did something wrong. Yeah, and I know that, And
Speaker 1: that's why we talked afterwards, remember, And we spoke about that,
Speaker 1: and you shared your feelings with me, and we I know,
Speaker 1: we haven't spoken for a while, but I was hoping
Speaker 1: to keep talking to you, and then now I'm kind
Speaker 1: of like confused. Well, I'm just being honest with you,
Speaker 1: and I can't get that south Park character out of
Speaker 1: my head every time I keep for you. Are you
Speaker 1: wearing your glasses right now? Kirk? Maybe I'm about to
Speaker 1: put them on right now? Don't do that great with
Speaker 1: your glass design. I cannot believe that. Like anyway, I mean,
Speaker 1: you guys just had a really bad first meeting. There's
Speaker 1: a lot of surprises, a lot of big, huge emotions
Speaker 1: like large glasses, Like maybe you're just making this as
Speaker 1: an excuse just because it was just ikey. Yeah, this
Speaker 1: is this embarrassment on your part, Jillian. As I've said before,
Speaker 1: I am remorse. Yeah, but that doesn't excuse what he did. Well,
Speaker 1: this is crazy because this is two people who just
Speaker 1: a couple of weeks ago was saying that they loved
Speaker 1: each other, and now they're on the phone and I
Speaker 1: can sense all this tension and Brooke, I think you
Speaker 1: would agree we can fix this. Yeah, if Kirk would
Speaker 1: just apologize for not sending her a photo of himself
Speaker 1: wearing glasses, that was his bad Kirk, Can you own that?
Speaker 1: Can you say I'm sorry, Hey, look, I send you
Speaker 1: guys an email so I can talk to her. And
Speaker 1: now I'm the one who's apologizing to her for wearing glasses.
Speaker 1: I'm just saying, Jillian, apologize to you. Being sarcastic, Kerk.
Speaker 1: You don't need to apologize. I mean, I do think
Speaker 1: you could say something nice to Jillian if you still
Speaker 1: even want to go out with her again. You know what,
Speaker 1: that's the thing, Like, I wanted to go out with
Speaker 1: her again. I wanted to continue to talk, but after this,
Speaker 1: and she wants to go out with you too, as
Speaker 1: long as you lose the glasses and the wood. So
Speaker 1: with that being say, we would love to sends you
Speaker 1: guys out on a second date, and we will pay
Speaker 1: for that. I mean, I'm not happy about this. I'm
Speaker 1: just letting you know. That's why we haven't been talking. Well,
Speaker 1: that's how most married couples are. They're not happy with
Speaker 1: each other most of the time. I think that's a
Speaker 1: very very good thing each other they do. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm worried about bad habits. Bad habits like bad video.
Speaker 1: So I mean, I'm just saying, like it could be
Speaker 1: a poor diet that leads to poor hygiene and then
Speaker 1: maybe you know, bad eyesight. Guys, you know what, Just
Speaker 1: stop because I don't even want to do this anymore.
Speaker 1: No I do, I do? This has gone totally less.
Speaker 1: Oh man, Oh wait, so now you don't want to
Speaker 1: go out with me when you just said you would
Speaker 1: think about it. I haven't lost the words. I was
Speaker 1: going to actually pay for you to come see me,
Speaker 1: and now it feels like that would be a waste
Speaker 1: of time and money. But I didn't say that I
Speaker 1: didn't want to come see you. Well you never wanted
Speaker 1: to either, But didn't you read between the lines? Oh
Speaker 1: my god, have we got to be done? Oh no,
Speaker 1: oh no. Who knew that a catfish across country could
Speaker 1: turn out like this? This is the most romantic story
Speaker 1: that I think we've heard all We don't do very
Speaker 1: good romance on this shore. This is the best that
Speaker 1: we have to offer. I wanted to l Jeffrey, and
Speaker 1: it's ruined. I think we all were d T F
Speaker 1: I L, but most that we're just so o L
Speaker 1: got it broke and Jeffrey in the morning
