Speaker 1: Second dat day when I was thirteen years old. This
Speaker 1: is true, Okay, I recorded an original song called reach
Speaker 1: for the Sky. Why I guess literal we've gotten to
Speaker 1: a point where you willingly playing this. It's dead blast
Speaker 1: on iTunes currently. But the thing is, the underlying message
Speaker 1: of this song is, no matter what you do in life,
Speaker 1: you should aim high, shoot for the stars. Even if
Speaker 1: you're a weird, little sheltered Jewish boy. What's the worst
Speaker 1: that could happen? I wish we could just hear more
Speaker 1: of it without us talking. Yeah. The thing is, even
Speaker 1: though that mantra didn't really work out so well for
Speaker 1: me because here I am in the dying industry of
Speaker 1: terrestrial radio, Luckily it did work for one of our
Speaker 1: listeners named Brett, who says he shot for the moon
Speaker 1: in his dating life and it may have actually worked
Speaker 1: out for him. So let's let's talk to him right now. Brett.
Speaker 1: How's it going? Man? Hey, what's up? Guys? Oh? Man?
Speaker 1: You big young Jeffrey fan here is single years ago
Speaker 1: and now you're a reaching for the stars or what.
Speaker 1: He's the one person but then immediately deleted before dude,
Speaker 1: I got respect, Like it's true, Like I do like
Speaker 1: I shoot for the moon, like I'm always looking for
Speaker 1: the best. Yeah, what does that mean in your dating life? Well,
Speaker 1: that's what I mean, you know, Like so when I'm dating, like,
Speaker 1: I love the challenge of trying to get with somebody
Speaker 1: that's just completely beautiful, knowing that like I don't really
Speaker 1: deserved him. Well, tell us about the challenging woman that
Speaker 1: you met. Our name is Hannah, and I matched a ten. Like,
Speaker 1: good for you. How do you? How do you land
Speaker 1: a ten? What was your secret? Well? I will, like
Speaker 1: you know, so I go into like my laboratory and
Speaker 1: just like your lab, you have a lab at. Okay, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: so I'm like, I try to be witty with her.
Speaker 1: I make some jokes and I guess the term is courting.
Speaker 1: But like with somebody is who's that gorgeous? It's worth
Speaker 1: to work for her attention? Yeah, I feel like it's
Speaker 1: worth it for anyone that you're interested in. It doesn't
Speaker 1: have to be only worth it for tens. But okay,
Speaker 1: so it sounds like to get it sounds like you
Speaker 1: used some like witty, interesting humor on her and that
Speaker 1: got her attention. Yeah, and like she did respond with me,
Speaker 1: but it was kind of hit or miss. It wasn't
Speaker 1: always getting a response from her. And okay, granted I
Speaker 1: was a little corny sometimes, but like I was genuine. Oh,
Speaker 1: give us an example. Can I hear an example of
Speaker 1: something you would have said to her? Well, you know,
Speaker 1: it just wants to be sweet talked around. I told
Speaker 1: her that she had pretty eyes. Oh man, where's the
Speaker 1: funny part that come from your laboratory. It's not mixing
Speaker 1: with a lot of chemicals. Well, so like I send
Speaker 1: her a gift of like Steve Vashimi that is actually funny. Okay, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 1: So finally, like we get to the point where I'm like, okay, hey,
Speaker 1: you and me dinner Saturday night? Right? Did it happen?
Speaker 1: And you know, I'm sitting there kind of like waiting
Speaker 1: a while, and it's just after a while, she's just
Speaker 1: like no, down what Well, I was back to my
Speaker 1: laboratory and then like you like thirty minutes to get
Speaker 1: another text, she says no Sunday six pm. And I'm like, okay,
Speaker 1: so she said no, but then she said yes, she's
Speaker 1: trying to be funny. She said no to Saturday, and
Speaker 1: then half an hour later she said I can do Sunday.
Speaker 1: There we go, not quite worthy of a Saturday night.
Speaker 1: But that's okay. You know you're getting your foot in
Speaker 1: the door. So what did you end up doing? Well?
Speaker 1: So I said, all right, so sushi, okay, all right,
Speaker 1: and then she responds like immediately like no, okay, okay.
Speaker 1: Did she give a suggestion or do you just have
Speaker 1: to keep going down the list of different foods? No?
Speaker 1: But half an hour later, another half an hour later,
Speaker 1: she suggests a place that's by her apartment. Okay, she
Speaker 1: just bossing you around telling you whatever, Yeah, move for sure.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, so you ended up going out to a restaurant? Yes,
Speaker 1: we did? What was that like? So? Like, I was
Speaker 1: so nervous that I got there like half an hour
Speaker 1: early and I had them like stood up the whole
Speaker 1: table because like I wanted everything to like look perfectly.
Speaker 1: She got there and she comes in. She oh so
Speaker 1: she like does not disappoint She is every bit of
Speaker 1: amazing as she looks in her pictures, and she only
Speaker 1: says no. Yeah. Well, she walks in and I greet
Speaker 1: her with the table and everything, and she says we
Speaker 1: need to move the table that she can't sit there.
Speaker 1: What you specifically chose the best table in the house,
Speaker 1: didn't you? Well I thought I did, but she had
Speaker 1: her reasons. I guess I don't. I don't know. I
Speaker 1: just wanted to make her comfortable, so I was like,
Speaker 1: no problem, we'll move the table. And I asked her
Speaker 1: if we could bake, you know, if they're getting everything together.
Speaker 1: It was like, you want to like get a drink
Speaker 1: or like get to know each other. And she's like,
Speaker 1: what you asked for? That? Isn't that the whole point
Speaker 1: that we're on this date? Would you like to have
Speaker 1: a conversation, perhaps you should have some food? Why she's
Speaker 1: gonna say no, She said, to every other question you've
Speaker 1: ever asked this woman, why would you set yourself up
Speaker 1: for that? Well, she said that she'd feel more comfortable
Speaker 1: if we didn't start getting to know one another until
Speaker 1: we moved to table. So we just sort of sat
Speaker 1: there and think, she is Wow, and you're attracted to
Speaker 1: this still, right, She's amazing. She just looks so amazing. Yeah,
Speaker 1: all right, Oh, I don't know if your brain's working,
Speaker 1: but something's working in your decision making. So we got it.
Speaker 1: We got moved to another table, and she likes the
Speaker 1: corner spot and didn't know. It's great, it didn't really
Speaker 1: last very long. Did you ever get to know each
Speaker 1: other at all? Yeah, I'm sure I'm trying to sense.
Speaker 1: Was there like an actual love connection, any type of
Speaker 1: bond at all, Jeff, because it sounds like you just
Speaker 1: stared at her whole time? No, I mean, I'm I
Speaker 1: was trying really hard, Okay. As I was walking her out,
Speaker 1: I was like, I've got a surprise for you, like
Speaker 1: I have something for you, and she said, oh, I
Speaker 1: didn't realize I didn't see kidnapping me on your profile
Speaker 1: and a jo Yeah she was joking, I think, okay, okay,
Speaker 1: like kidnapping joking all right. Did you laugh at it? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I tried to, Like I've been trying to laugh it off.
Speaker 1: But I had some flowers in my car that I
Speaker 1: wanted to give her, okay, and she thought it was
Speaker 1: going to be ziptized and duct tape. That was probably
Speaker 1: unpleasant surprise to the car. So I gave her some
Speaker 1: flowers and I asked her if I could walk her
Speaker 1: to her apartment and she said no, and I was like, oh, yeah,
Speaker 1: I get it. Respect her boundaries, right, what can you do?
Speaker 1: Of course, offered so that's it. I tried to text
Speaker 1: for another date, and uh, that's all I got. Maybe
Speaker 1: that was your opportunity to actually kidnap her, like she's
Speaker 1: what we wanted. Yeah, yeah, I mean I don't want
Speaker 1: to like unveil a mystery, but it sounds like she's
Speaker 1: just a typical girl, just wanted to maybe be nice
Speaker 1: for your dinner. You seemed like a nice enough guy,
Speaker 1: and maybe she's trying to find love, but you're a
Speaker 1: no yeah out guy. Think I think you should be
Speaker 1: kidnapped her. But one of these answers is right. We're
Speaker 1: gonna call her and find out which one it is
Speaker 1: when we do your second date update right after this
Speaker 1: second date. A perfect ten. I don't know if I've
Speaker 1: ever seen one before. Hello, Oh, you're right, except when
Speaker 1: I look in the mirror, that is true. Thank you
Speaker 1: for pointing that out this side of the rooms. Fine,
Speaker 1: I'm fine with division. Tens are rare, but they do exist.
Speaker 1: And one of our listeners he actually matched with a
Speaker 1: perfect He actually matched with a perfect ten online and
Speaker 1: her name is Hannah and she's kind of a handful though,
Speaker 1: because she shot down pretty much every suggestion Brett had
Speaker 1: for their date. Changed the time of it, the location
Speaker 1: even made them move tables when they were at the restaurant,
Speaker 1: which might sound high maintenance for a nine or lower,
Speaker 1: but again, Hannah's a ten. Yeah, get what they want.
Speaker 1: Wouldn't it be nice to live in that world? Yeah?
Speaker 1: It really is nice to live in that world. You Brad,
Speaker 1: Before we get started, you said that you've been texting
Speaker 1: a little bit with Hannah, but it's been spotty. What's
Speaker 1: the nature of your text with her. I've texted her,
Speaker 1: I've invited her bowling, I've invited her out to the bar.
Speaker 1: They've nail exactly. But I've given options, you know, like
Speaker 1: I've expressed that I want to see her again, and
Speaker 1: what she's saying. Sometimes she gives me nose and sometimes
Speaker 1: it's nothing. So you're not misunderstanding that she's not interested.
Speaker 1: You're just hoping we can help you, I see. But
Speaker 1: the fact that she is still at least responding at all,
Speaker 1: I think that's a win. Now we're going to try
Speaker 1: to say you look at someone else shows it has
Speaker 1: to be mean. So let's call this other Tan and
Speaker 1: see what she has to say. You're ready to do this, Brett, Yeah,
Speaker 1: let's do it. I'm thrilled. I haven't been blocked yet.
Speaker 1: All right, but maybe after this. Here we go, I'm
Speaker 1: dialing your number right now. Hello. Hi is this Hannah? Yeah,
Speaker 1: Han's answer the phone. Really nice to talk to you
Speaker 1: right now. My name is Jeff from brook and Jeffrey
Speaker 1: in the Morning. Hi, Hannah. Those are some other people
Speaker 1: that are on the show, but the person you want
Speaker 1: to talk to is me. How are you doing, Hannah,
Speaker 1: I'm Jef's assistant. Okay, what's up. Well, we're doing a
Speaker 1: really special segment that we only do for really special
Speaker 1: people like yourself. It's called a Second Date Update, and
Speaker 1: we're looking to reconnect you with a really cool guy
Speaker 1: that you went out with recently named Brett. Hello. Okay,
Speaker 1: do you remember Brett? Hannah? Yeah you do? Okay, good? Okay?
Speaker 1: Did what kind of impression did he make on you?
Speaker 1: I don't understand why I would be calling you guys that.
Speaker 1: It's a good question. We spoke to Brett about your
Speaker 1: guys's date and he had a lot of really nice
Speaker 1: things to say about you and said he had a
Speaker 1: good time, and he's been trying, apparently to arrange a
Speaker 1: second meet up. Well, and I'm sure whatever, whatever the
Speaker 1: reason is, it's not your fault. You think it's Bret's fault. Well,
Speaker 1: I'm just trying. I'm trying to guess. I'm on your side,
Speaker 1: is what I'm trying to say. No matter what you say,
Speaker 1: it's right. Brat's getting the vibes that maybe you don't
Speaker 1: want to go out again. It's not like a seven
Speaker 1: would say it would Okay, Okay, Yeah, I'm just like
Speaker 1: doing stuff. Um okay, maybe that's great. Maybe you could
Speaker 1: do stuff with Brett. Okay, I don't want to do
Speaker 1: the type of stuff that he keeps asking me to do.
Speaker 1: Like she's texting me about bowling and I told him
Speaker 1: I hate bowling and she's just like still asking me
Speaker 1: to do that. I don't want to do. Okay, that's
Speaker 1: very annoying or anything you like. Yeah, it's a good question,
Speaker 1: Alexis I like dinner but only because I have to?
Speaker 1: What do you mean only because you have to? You
Speaker 1: don't have to think it would have been a yeah,
Speaker 1: you have to eat. It's an activity to live. If
Speaker 1: she had a choice, she would never have dinner. What
Speaker 1: would you do? What is there anything you find fun?
Speaker 1: It just sounds like you hate everything I don't hate everything.
Speaker 1: I just don't like everything. Okay, pessimist, Well, I think
Speaker 1: don't conquer that. They'll tell you you don't like Well,
Speaker 1: that's what a pessimist is. They don't. Here's my situation.
Speaker 1: I don't like activities in general, and I don't want
Speaker 1: to do that. So honestly, it's just like, if he
Speaker 1: wants to go out to eat, we can do that.
Speaker 1: But other than dinner, I'm really not interested in ask
Speaker 1: throwing or all the other dumps that he's texted me about. Okay, well,
Speaker 1: so curious what you do all day? Yeahs perfectly. I
Speaker 1: think that that would be okay with Brett. He was
Speaker 1: just trying to figure out some fun stuff that you
Speaker 1: guys could do together. Take away fun, don't do fun. Yeah,
Speaker 1: he just wants to find some stuff, not even stuff
Speaker 1: at this he just wants to be while you both
Speaker 1: don't enjoy it. You guys literally have any other questions
Speaker 1: for me? Because I have other stuff to get I
Speaker 1: do a more question. Would you like to talk to Brett?
Speaker 1: And the answer is yes, because he's on the other
Speaker 1: line right now, listening and wanting to say something. Brett. Yo, Henna,
Speaker 1: it's Brett Uh, yeah, Hey, how are you doing? I'm fine, Brett?
Speaker 1: Why do you have these people calling me? No? Look,
Speaker 1: I just I really like here, I just heard a
Speaker 1: bit of what you said. I just what do you mean?
Speaker 1: Like you don't like to do activities? You don't made
Speaker 1: it super clear. I'm okay, what's going out again? Honestly
Speaker 1: we could do that. It's not a big deal. But
Speaker 1: I don't want to do anything. Sounds perfect? What do
Speaker 1: you understand where Brett is? Maybe I'm a little confused.
Speaker 1: So what do you do? You just have that we
Speaker 1: can eat? But you know what, honestly, I'm thinking about
Speaker 1: going on a forty day fast, so I think to
Speaker 1: look at what would what do you want? Okay, honestly, Brett, listen,
Speaker 1: I'm over dating at the moment. So if you really
Speaker 1: don't want to do it again, like that's fine too.
Speaker 1: Just no, no, like it's whatever I want to date you.
Speaker 1: I just alright? Like, so, like, do you want to
Speaker 1: just hang out and watch TV? Maybe? No, Listen, if
Speaker 1: you want to buy me dinner, I need to eat,
Speaker 1: let's do that. We can that's it and no activity.
Speaker 1: But TV seemed like a good suggestion, Hannah, like that
Speaker 1: that's pretty much not doing anything right. TV is an
Speaker 1: activity and I already made clear I'm not interested in activities. Brett. Okay, Brett,
Speaker 1: why do you want to cut? Yeah? I mean literally,
Speaker 1: we no offense, Hannah. But you sound like one of
Speaker 1: the least interesting people in the entire We can find
Speaker 1: you a nice nine Brett. Yeah, it's like, what are
Speaker 1: you going to offer in a relationship, Hannah, Hannah, I
Speaker 1: apologize for my co host over there. That's a six
Speaker 1: talking over there. She doesn't understand what it's like being elite,
Speaker 1: even with a ten. If you don't have a good personality,
Speaker 1: Like what are you like? You're nothing, You're a ten Brook.
Speaker 1: You don't have to be anything else. Does you just exist? Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's okay. It drops you by like half. Okay, I
Speaker 1: don't really understand why you guys talk on nine tens
Speaker 1: and all these other numbers. But honestly, I really have
Speaker 1: to go Brett. Is there anything else? Oh? Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: uh spit it out. Just stay with your sake because
Speaker 1: I'm going to hang out. I want to go out
Speaker 1: with you again. We get eat dinner. I'll buy your dinner.
Speaker 1: We don't have to do anything, like just whatever whatever
Speaker 1: you want to do. That was kind of sweet, wasn't it. Hannah.
Speaker 1: We'd like to pay for you guys to sit in
Speaker 1: the same vicinity and do nothing. Yeah. I can sit
Speaker 1: in the dark and just match each other's breathing. All right,
Speaker 1: I'm hanging out. That's considered an activity. Hang up. I
Speaker 1: think that was a yes from her, though. I think
Speaker 1: that was a yes only if he pays. He doesn't
Speaker 1: need your money. Okay, I'm not a charity. Brett. I
Speaker 1: get it, you got the bill, I got it, I
Speaker 1: got it. Well we did. This feels so wrong a
Speaker 1: lot of other women out there. Yeah, it's gonna be
Speaker 1: like like a silence. Like I like soup, he likes soup.
Speaker 1: She doesn't like anything. By stop putting likes in her head.
Speaker 1: And even if she did like it, she wouldn't talk
Speaker 1: about it and be careful. Eating soup is in activity.
Speaker 1: It's dangerously close Broke and Jeffrey in the morning. I
Speaker 1: feel like we have to do this every few weeks.
Speaker 1: But once again I must warn my co host, please
Speaker 1: do not openly bag on the people that we're trying
Speaker 1: to score dates with. She was just mean, Oka, Like
Speaker 1: she wasn't nice I'm not going to be nice to
Speaker 1: people who aren't nice or kind or just something kind
Speaker 1: of boring. She was just she was saying what she
Speaker 1: likes and who she is, and you're out there telling
Speaker 1: her she's not interesting. She's a pessimist. She's a terrible person.
Speaker 1: The pessimist is it's somebody that doesn't like everything, that
Speaker 1: doesn't like everything. It doesn't feel good to be called pessimist.
Speaker 1: I'm just trying to defend our listener and help him
Speaker 1: in his life. A bad choice to go out with
Speaker 1: this woman coming after I say she's unique, she is different.
Speaker 1: Don't you think we should celebrate the unique different people
Speaker 1: in our community? Brook, Or do you want to take
Speaker 1: away her rights too? What's unique about her? I agree
Speaker 1: with you now, But if this girl hit me up
Speaker 1: on my love you say anything, don't say nothing. I
Speaker 1: don't like to say anything either, so you can be
Speaker 1: all judgy, But me and Rosy are going to be
Speaker 1: enjoying our time with her at our two nothing, absolutely
