Speaker 1: The second dated. It's funny. People in dating apps are
Speaker 1: just like Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Some people are
Speaker 1: very hot and use them all the time, like most
Speaker 1: of the kids in the promo department here. Others they're
Speaker 1: a little more medium, like someone in this room who
Speaker 1: only goes on when her husband's out of town. I
Speaker 1: said someone.
Speaker 2: I guess medium is a compliment coming from you.
Speaker 1: And some are very very new to it, like one
Speaker 1: of our listeners, Mary Anne, who said she's just dipping
Speaker 1: her toe into the online dating scene. Mary Anne, you
Speaker 1: haven't matched with Jose or anybody yet.
Speaker 3: No, not yet.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm shocked you kids.
Speaker 1: I put my zip code to every zip code. What's
Speaker 1: it like jumping into the online dating scene.
Speaker 3: It's interesting.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 3: I'm a little cautious about it. I guess that's a good.
Speaker 2: Way to your attitude.
Speaker 5: Sounds good though, like you look like your hope. You
Speaker 5: sound hopeful.
Speaker 1: How are you cautious with online dating?
Speaker 3: Well, I'm a teacher of like younger kids, or like
Speaker 3: I just I don't want the parents to find me.
Speaker 3: I don't want like any weird pictures of me out there,
Speaker 3: you know, to make anything awkward. So I only really
Speaker 3: have like a few pictures in my profile, and like
Speaker 3: a couple of them I'm like wearing sunglasses. So it's
Speaker 3: just there's nothing crazy there.
Speaker 1: It's like you're a celebrity.
Speaker 5: It's like you're so like toy of I mean, but
Speaker 5: seriously though, like my kids, teachers are very edited on
Speaker 5: their social media's interesting.
Speaker 1: Book has seen their dating profiles clearly pages whatever you
Speaker 1: want to say, But I couldn't even tell you only
Speaker 1: posted two photos on here? What a tease? Okay, what Marianna?
Speaker 1: So who did you match with online?
Speaker 3: There's not a lot of people actually, so I actually
Speaker 3: only go by one initial.
Speaker 4: I just go by him for Mary Anne, which may
Speaker 4: make people more cautious about you.
Speaker 2: I mean, yeah, backfire, Is that true?
Speaker 4: Marian Yeah?
Speaker 3: No, I really don't get like a lot of messages.
Speaker 1: So who is brave enough to swipe right on you?
Speaker 3: So I did? Finally the sky Cordon actually reached out
Speaker 3: to me.
Speaker 1: Gordon masculine name, it is masculine, very masculine.
Speaker 3: I don't know.
Speaker 5: I had a pet lizard, Na, I bet that lizard had.
Speaker 2: A six pat lizards, masculine pets.
Speaker 1: What's Gordon like?
Speaker 3: He's really nice. It was just nice. He was one
Speaker 3: of the few people that actually wanted to get to
Speaker 3: know me and talk to me and like actually go
Speaker 3: out in real life, not just you know, message me online.
Speaker 2: Okay, what did it feel like going into an actual date?
Speaker 3: I mean I was a little nervous, but I mean
Speaker 3: I was hopeful. I was. He seemed really nice. So
Speaker 3: we were going to go to a music festival. We decided,
Speaker 3: Oh that's cute. Yeah, yeah, it was his pick. I
Speaker 3: didn't really know a lot of the bands, but you know,
Speaker 3: I tried to listen and like get to know some
Speaker 3: of them before we went. And there's a couple that
Speaker 3: are pretty good.
Speaker 5: Three songs from somebody's YouTube channels, just to make sure
Speaker 5: to participate.
Speaker 1: Did it turn out to be fun?
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was fun. He's here a positive attitude and
Speaker 3: he's like no pressure, like you know, and I just
Speaker 3: I liked being around him, honestly.
Speaker 2: Like, so it sounds like it turned out even better
Speaker 2: than you expected.
Speaker 3: Yeah, it was actually like worried for nothing. But when
Speaker 3: we went to leave, like it was getting late and
Speaker 3: so like we made sure to head out, but I noticed,
Speaker 3: like once we got closted, like the exit I did
Speaker 3: on my phone. Oh no, and I was like, oh
Speaker 3: my god, like I lost my phone somewhere and.
Speaker 1: What a nightmare.
Speaker 3: So he also looked for it, and he eventually found
Speaker 3: it under these like tables where you could like stand
Speaker 3: around and drink.
Speaker 2: Oh my god. So he's nice and he's a hero.
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly like everything.
Speaker 1: Did you give him a big kiss as a thank you?
Speaker 4: Get to it?
Speaker 1: Okay, sorry to jump forward.
Speaker 3: Anyway. So he takes me home and we just have
Speaker 3: a good night hug.
Speaker 5: Actually weird, you sound so cute and giggly about it,
Speaker 5: though I love it was it felt good, it felt right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I thought we clicked and like, I don't know,
Speaker 3: I'm surprised we aren't going out again, Like I texted
Speaker 3: him being like I really enjoyed seeing you, Like I
Speaker 3: got a lot of fun, Like I love to hang
Speaker 3: out again, Like I was really looking forward to, like,
Speaker 3: you know, hanging out with him again.
Speaker 1: It's like a long hug or was it like a
Speaker 1: quick like I want to know it wasn't.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean it wasn't like a side church hug.
Speaker 3: I mean like it was you know, it was like
Speaker 3: a full hog.
Speaker 2: Okay, wait, you haven't heard from him at all.
Speaker 3: No, and I don't know what to do. It's weird,
Speaker 3: and now I'm like, I'm bad.
Speaker 1: I'm still caught up on a church hug because the
Speaker 1: hugs that I've had from people in church, they go,
Speaker 1: they get pretty intense. I'll tell you, wow, but.
Speaker 2: God, bless you, bless you.
Speaker 1: I've had therapy from some of those church. So it's
Speaker 1: been how long since? I don't know? People do it different, So,
Speaker 1: so how long has it been since you and Gordon
Speaker 1: hung out?
Speaker 3: It was a few weeks ago?
Speaker 2: Now, okay, so you've waited. Wait now you have your
Speaker 2: phone back. Have you guys been texting since then?
Speaker 3: Not really. I've tried to get him to hang out,
Speaker 3: but he's not really super responsive.
Speaker 5: I guess we need this to work out because it's
Speaker 5: like your first time in online dating and it's going
Speaker 5: to be bad.
Speaker 2: That's pretty typical, I know.
Speaker 1: And you had fun like normally it's like, oh my god,
Speaker 1: I'm never gonna online.
Speaker 3: Again like you had to experience.
Speaker 1: They want you to have another date. I want or
Speaker 1: church hugs for you. So we'll try and get some
Speaker 1: of that done. When we play a song, come back
Speaker 1: and call Gordon and try and get your second date
Speaker 1: update right after this.
Speaker 3: Okay, cool, thank you.
Speaker 1: Hold on, Maryanne, the school teacher is on the phone
Speaker 1: with us for a second date.
Speaker 2: And he just sounds so innocent when you say that.
Speaker 1: She does. And her very first online dating experience went
Speaker 1: just about as well as it possibly could because she
Speaker 1: went to a music festival, lost her phone, but found
Speaker 1: it before they left, and ended the night with a
Speaker 1: steamy church hug.
Speaker 2: She said Jeff that it was better than that.
Speaker 1: Church or not. God was watching and God was like you.
Speaker 1: But now it's been weeks and her date Gordon has
Speaker 1: been kind of distant, and I know Brooke was surprised
Speaker 1: that Marianne left a music festival with her top still on.
Speaker 2: I mean, everybody has different vibes.
Speaker 1: Alexis was shocked that she remembered the music festival at all. Yeah, honestly,
Speaker 1: but we're going to do our best here. How you feeling, Marianne,
Speaker 1: I'm feeling Okay.
Speaker 5: You're brave because not only were you trying dating apps
Speaker 5: for the first time, you're reaching out to us.
Speaker 2: To help like this.
Speaker 5: This is this is a broad move your phone, very
Speaker 5: traumatic experience.
Speaker 1: Some would say that you're at an all time low
Speaker 1: being on the show with us, but that only the
Speaker 1: only way we could go from here is up.
Speaker 2: Okay, back for its compliments, kind of see that?
Speaker 1: Okay, I thought that was a positive thing to say. Interesting,
Speaker 1: I'll apologize with a church hug to you.
Speaker 2: Okay, Mary, don't take Jeff's church hugs.
Speaker 3: I think I'll pass. We should just call him a
Speaker 3: good idea your loss.
Speaker 1: But let's just do that. We're gonna call Gordon right
Speaker 1: now here we go. Hello, Hello, this Gordon?
Speaker 4: This is Gordon. Who's this?
Speaker 1: Sorry? Did we call you in the bathroom or something?
Speaker 1: I wait over there?
Speaker 2: Are you wanting that to be the truth?
Speaker 1: I didn't want to interrupt you.
Speaker 4: No, I'm good.
Speaker 3: Who am I talking to?
Speaker 1: Who is this you're talking to? Esteemed radio host Jeffrey
Speaker 1: Dubou from award winning morning Showbrook and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 4: Yes?
Speaker 1: Why, great question we're calling to Did we win the
Speaker 1: award because our mom's made us one? No, we're calling
Speaker 1: because we're doing a segment called a second Date Update,
Speaker 1: hoping to get some answers for one of our listeners
Speaker 1: named Mary Anne. Remember going out with Marianna? A couple
Speaker 1: of weeks ago.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, I remember that.
Speaker 1: Yes I did not.
Speaker 5: I'm sorry Gordon to interrupt, but I didn't expect that
Speaker 5: type of reaction. She sounds bubbly and lovely and she's
Speaker 5: a school teacher.
Speaker 4: That's that's what she says.
Speaker 1: I guess, Oh wow, you're clearly not very fond of Marianne.
Speaker 1: But she felt like the date with you went really well.
Speaker 2: Yeah, did you have fun at the music festival?
Speaker 4: Yeah? I had fun at the music festival. It started
Speaker 4: out fun, it started out great.
Speaker 1: Well, okay, what's going on? What's with the coldness?
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't know. I don't know what she
Speaker 4: told you guys, but she she lost her phone at
Speaker 4: one point, and you know, I was trying to help
Speaker 4: her find it.
Speaker 2: That is hate irresponsible people. Is that what you're saying?
Speaker 4: Well, I wound up actually finding her phone.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you were you were her hero, that was what
Speaker 1: she said.
Speaker 4: Yeah. Well I when I picked up her phone, her
Speaker 4: home screen came on and what I saw kind of
Speaker 4: broke me.
Speaker 2: WHOA, ok, you what what? She's a school teacher. I
Speaker 2: can't imagine it would be.
Speaker 4: I don't know how I else to say it. When
Speaker 4: I looked at her screen. It was a picture of
Speaker 4: her kissing another guy.
Speaker 1: What kind of guy?
Speaker 2: That doesn't matter?
Speaker 1: Like her father.
Speaker 4: Maybe it definitely was not the way you kiss your father.
Speaker 1: You don't know how I kiss my father. So how
Speaker 1: dare you jump to that sort of conclusion.
Speaker 5: I mean, that could have been, like I don't know,
Speaker 5: we didn't get her last relationship status, Like maybe she
Speaker 5: just broke up with somebody. Maybe she's there could be
Speaker 5: other reasons.
Speaker 1: Photo you're on a date with somebody else.
Speaker 4: I don't know. I mean, it kind of all started
Speaker 4: to make sense to me.
Speaker 1: What what do you mean? I'm not what do you
Speaker 1: what's going on in your mind when you see that picture?
Speaker 4: I mean her her profile is just m and all
Speaker 4: of her photos are her with sunglasses on. And then
Speaker 4: I see this and it snapped in the clear focus
Speaker 4: for me. She's she's cheated.
Speaker 5: God, she acted so innocent, like she she totally played
Speaker 5: up the innocent school teacher. And I mean she told
Speaker 5: us that she just did m and the sunglasses and
Speaker 5: stuff because she didn't want parents of her students to
Speaker 5: find her.
Speaker 4: Yeah, she told me the same thing.
Speaker 1: WHOA okay your stances? You're not cool with her cheating.
Speaker 1: That's always like two steps. I just want to be clear.
Speaker 5: Why didn't you Why didn't you address her when you
Speaker 5: saw the phone and you picked it up and handed
Speaker 5: it back to her, Why didn't you say something?
Speaker 4: I just honestly, I wanted nothing to do with her
Speaker 4: at that point.
Speaker 1: I guess that makes sense. Why at the end there
Speaker 1: was no kiss? Yeah, just a church hug.
Speaker 4: That's what you call church hug? Sure, yeah it was.
Speaker 1: We don't know what to call it at this point.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Okay, that's.
Speaker 1: All I mean. I guess i'd be surprised if she
Speaker 1: was still there on the line after this whole thing.
Speaker 2: But why would she call us if she was cheating?
Speaker 1: I don't know what an idiot I can see. Let's
Speaker 1: ask Mary Anne, because she's been listening to this the
Speaker 1: entire time, Gordon, Mary Anne.
Speaker 3: What.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's been there the whole time.
Speaker 3: Mary You there, Yeah, I'm here, Mary Anne?
Speaker 1: What do you have to say? I mean, this is it's.
Speaker 3: Not what you think?
Speaker 1: Yeah, what do you mean? You had? You had a
Speaker 1: picture of you kissing another guy on your phone screen?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 3: That was my husband. He passed away last year, and
Speaker 3: I just have a memory of him on my phone.
Speaker 1: Oh my god, you were.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I didn't know you well enough yet to really talk
Speaker 3: about it, so I didn't want to bring it up
Speaker 3: on our first date.
Speaker 2: You know, are you okay?
Speaker 1: Yeah?
Speaker 3: I mean I am honestly a little taken aback just
Speaker 3: listening to what you said and jumping so soon to
Speaker 3: conclusions about me with that, you could have just confronted
Speaker 3: me that.
Speaker 1: Night, Gordon, mean, how do you feel right now? You
Speaker 1: must kind of feel like boob id right now.
Speaker 4: I'm really sorry to hear that. I just I've been
Speaker 4: down this road before, and so I didn't think. I
Speaker 4: didn't think. I feel like I had it all figured
Speaker 4: out already.
Speaker 2: Yeah, hopefully that's his.
Speaker 1: Whole heartbreaking Yeah sides, though, I feel like the understanding
Speaker 1: needs to be there.
Speaker 5: And I mean Marianne, he's obviously been on dating apps
Speaker 5: a lot longer because he's jaded and jumps to conclusions,
Speaker 5: which is what we did when he explained it. I mean,
Speaker 5: when you connect that to just your m profile and
Speaker 5: everything and your secrecy, it makes sense. Oh yeah, we
Speaker 5: didn't know you lost your husband, like I mean, yeah.
Speaker 1: But if the good news is if Marianne is on
Speaker 1: the dating apps, it must mean that she's feeling ready
Speaker 1: to put herself back doubt there. Yeah, so that's encouraging.
Speaker 3: It took me a while, but I mean, yeah, I
Speaker 3: finally did it.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: I mean it makes sense why it's your first time
Speaker 5: ever on dating apps because you were married.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Brooke doesn't play by the same rules as that,
Speaker 1: but that's.
Speaker 5: Good for you.
Speaker 2: Oh man, that's hard.
Speaker 1: But wow, I'm glad we got closure a little clarity
Speaker 1: in this situation. And Gordon, now that you know that
Speaker 1: she's not cheating and what the situation is, we'd like
Speaker 1: to offer to send the two of you out on
Speaker 1: another date, and we would pay for it.
Speaker 4: I do feel terrible about the assumption, and obviously about
Speaker 4: what happened to your husband into you, and other than that.
Speaker 1: Nothing else bad happened.
Speaker 4: Correct.
Speaker 2: You guys are really cute y.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I honestly really did have a good time on
Speaker 4: the date, and until I saw that futal, I would
Speaker 4: be open to it if you.
Speaker 1: Are, okay, that is fair because based on this I
Speaker 1: don't know that mary Anne is still interested. Mary Anne,
Speaker 1: are you willing to give him another chance after he
Speaker 1: jumped to conclusions?
Speaker 3: I'll give it another shot. We can talk it out.
Speaker 3: We'll see where we get from there. I guess excited.
Speaker 1: All right, so's she's the most brilliant ever. No, I'm kidding.
Speaker 1: I'm happy for you guys. It sounds like we're sending
Speaker 1: you out on another day. Congratulations you two, Thank you,
Speaker 1: jeff Church day. I don't know about that, but we
Speaker 1: could celebrate by ending this with an entire show church hudg. Yeah, everybody,
Speaker 1: bring it in close.
Speaker 2: I'm taking it off to your church.
Speaker 1: Jeff looking Jeffrey in the morning, man. Legit tears coming
Speaker 1: from the text board from a lot of people who
Speaker 1: are all pulling for Charlotte and her love story.
Speaker 2: I mean, it was beautiful.
Speaker 5: God, this is a couple that I definitely hope that
Speaker 5: we get an update from, even if it doesn't work out.
Speaker 2: I just want to hear that everybody's doing okay.
Speaker 4: Still.
Speaker 1: Yeah, and obviously she didn't go into much detail about
Speaker 1: what happened with the passing of her late husband because
Speaker 1: we didn't want to pry into that.
Speaker 5: Good work, team, Well, why would you ask that that
Speaker 5: was on your mind? Just want to know what a
Speaker 5: true crime podcast.
Speaker 1: I'm giving us props for not going there. That's what
Speaker 1: I'm saying, but you do have to. You have to
Speaker 1: give her credit for being courageous and being brave, not
Speaker 1: just by putting herself out in the dating world again,
Speaker 1: but also staying on the phone while this guy accuses
Speaker 1: her of cheating.
Speaker 2: For sure, that must have been so emotionous for her.
Speaker 1: One of the most intense cases of like assuming is
Speaker 1: never a good.
Speaker 5: Either that or she's on the other line thinking, oh
Speaker 5: my god, this idiot, you know, until.
Speaker 1: He felt Maybe it's a good rule of thumb. If
Speaker 1: you ever see somebody else with a phone screen picture
Speaker 1: of them kissing somebody, just assume that it's a relative
Speaker 1: that's passed away. I don't ever know that.
Speaker 2: Really, that's not the lesson. Yeah, maybe just more open communication.
Speaker 1: Yeah, different lessons this one apparently. But here's a good lesson.
Speaker 1: If you ever want to get in touch with somebody
Speaker 1: that you went on a date with that's not calling
Speaker 1: you back, you can email the show and we'll call
Speaker 1: that person.
Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, let's stick to that.
Speaker 1: That's a good lesson. Anyway, It's Brook and Jeffrey in
Speaker 1: the Morning.
Speaker 4: Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning,
