Speaker 1: Hey, welcome to the Second Date podcast. It's Brook and
Speaker 1: Jeffrey in the morning, and it's you.
Speaker 2: Welcome to you as well. Welcome in.
Speaker 3: Nice. I feel seen. And it's Tuesday, which means it's
Speaker 3: gonna get.
Speaker 1: Awkward Tuesday phone call on Tuesdays.
Speaker 3: That's why we are so smart. We are so good
Speaker 3: at naming things.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 1: And I know that we get a lot of responses
Speaker 1: for some of these situations, and today is definitely going
Speaker 1: to elicit that because it involves cheating, and people got
Speaker 1: strong feelings on cheating, which always.
Speaker 5: Cheaters hate cheating.
Speaker 2: Yes, it's weird, right.
Speaker 3: You think we're gonna have in the comments? All right,
Speaker 3: let's get this awkward Tuesday's phone call started.
Speaker 2: One of our listeners came home the other day to
Speaker 2: find his front door wide open. Half the stuff in
Speaker 2: his place was gone, along with a very bizarre handwritten
Speaker 2: note left for him on his kitchen to what the
Speaker 2: heck can What that message said led him down a
Speaker 2: very very bizarre path where he was doing research online
Speaker 2: following people's cars around town, and it brought him to
Speaker 2: this moment where he wants to make an awkward phone
Speaker 2: call to a total stranger to warn them that the
Speaker 2: same thing might be about to happen to them. Oh
Speaker 2: my gosh.
Speaker 5: This sounds like a mystery again.
Speaker 2: Apparently you're gonna hear the full story when we do
Speaker 2: your awkward Tuesday phone call right after this It's awkward,
Speaker 2: It's Tuesday.
Speaker 4: It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 2: A few months ago, we did a second date update
Speaker 2: with a guy named Sean, And if you're a regular
Speaker 2: listener to the show or to our podcast Aprok and Jeffrey,
Speaker 2: go follow subscribe, you might remember Sean being trapped in
Speaker 2: an elevator with a woman for forty five minutes. Yeah,
Speaker 2: this song was playing over the elevator speakers the entire
Speaker 2: time on repeat. Right, that's how good our research is.
Speaker 3: Okay, Yeah, it makes sense.
Speaker 2: That woman's name was Nicole, and they ended up agreeing
Speaker 2: to go out again and actually became an item boyfriend
Speaker 2: and girlfriend. But now Sean has reached out to us
Speaker 2: for an awkward Tuesday phone call in regards to Nicole.
Speaker 3: The full circle right now?
Speaker 2: Is this a good call we're gonna make or a
Speaker 2: bad call? Sean?
Speaker 4: You know it's not a great call.
Speaker 2: Oh I do it? Okay?
Speaker 3: I was like we were invested in you two as
Speaker 3: a couple. I'll create this just they were together, yes,
Speaker 3: but in the.
Speaker 2: Last ten seconds, we are really invested. So let's tell
Speaker 2: us what happened, dude, what happened with you and Nicole?
Speaker 4: All right, we've been dating for like three months and
Speaker 4: she moved in. Whoa wow, Yeah, probably a little too
Speaker 4: quick in retrospect.
Speaker 3: Yeah, are you guys already broken up?
Speaker 4: Well, it's kind of a gray area right now.
Speaker 2: Tell us the story of what happened.
Speaker 4: Okay. So I came home from work after we've been together,
Speaker 4: like living together for about a month, okay, and the
Speaker 4: front door was wide open.
Speaker 1: Oh no, was your heart just beating? I always think
Speaker 1: that that means something really bad.
Speaker 5: If she made that heating bill go up, break up
Speaker 5: with her?
Speaker 4: Okay, you know that heating bill was the least of
Speaker 4: my concerns at the time.
Speaker 3: It's not funny.
Speaker 2: So that's obviously weird to come home and see your
Speaker 2: front door open. Did you go in or do you
Speaker 2: call somebody?
Speaker 4: I went in because I was like, I didn't know if
Speaker 4: something was wrong, Like I like, if you did help
Speaker 4: or something. So I was like, hello, no answer. I
Speaker 4: go in and all of her stuff is gone.
Speaker 3: WHOA.
Speaker 4: Well, initially I was like, did I get robbed?
Speaker 3: What'd you do? Did you call her?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 4: There was a note I found the note of the
Speaker 4: kitchen counter.
Speaker 2: A ransom note or just a note written from I
Speaker 2: have your.
Speaker 3: Clothes established this she's not in trouble.
Speaker 2: What did it say?
Speaker 4: Because I feel awful that I couldn't tell you this
Speaker 4: in person, but I met someone else.
Speaker 2: WHOA, Oh my god.
Speaker 4: She's like, you're a great guy. I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1: Oh, I mean, wow, that's just so much. It's like
Speaker 1: you're only four months into the relationship. But also, you
Speaker 1: guys invested a lot real quickly.
Speaker 2: What was going through your mind when you read that?
Speaker 4: Well, at this point, I'm like, is she alive? I
Speaker 4: just want to make sure she's okay.
Speaker 3: Wait, you haven't talked to her at all.
Speaker 4: So I tried to call her. I texted her, I
Speaker 4: DMed her, nothing nothing. Yeah. I was like, I guess
Speaker 4: what I need to do is go to her work.
Speaker 4: You know, if she's okay, at least she'll be at
Speaker 4: work totally.
Speaker 2: Nothing bad or awkward happens when you go to your
Speaker 2: ex's workplace and try and ask questions. I mean that's the.
Speaker 1: Thing, Like you're kind of fronting that that you were
Speaker 1: worried about her health and safety, but you knew that
Speaker 1: she was healthy and safe.
Speaker 3: She just then I can yeah, totally.
Speaker 1: Like, let's be honest. You were going there, how are
Speaker 1: you feeling? Pulling up in her parking lot?
Speaker 4: I was like ready to be angry, but I didn't
Speaker 4: want to be angry and told you she was alive.
Speaker 3: Why did you think she wasn't alive? Keep bringing dead people.
Speaker 4: Don't leave you know she was kidnapped or something.
Speaker 3: Look situation that would be a smart kidnapper. Note though, I.
Speaker 2: Leaving a whole bunch of breadcrumbs for alibis for yourself here.
Speaker 2: So what happens when you do get to her work?
Speaker 4: Well, I go to her work and I pull in
Speaker 4: right behind this pickup truck and she and she gets
Speaker 4: out of the pickup.
Speaker 3: Truck the other guy and drives her to work.
Speaker 4: She kisses this guy in the pickup truck?
Speaker 2: Was he like super handsome too?
Speaker 4: I'm officially angry He's not bad looking and that sucks?
Speaker 3: Yeah, what'd you do? Did you go home?
Speaker 4: I follow the I followed the truck.
Speaker 1: No, as yes, I see we all get it.
Speaker 3: We all want to know, but we know we shouldn't.
Speaker 2: Well, where'd the truck go?
Speaker 4: He went to his house and I wrote his address down?
Speaker 5: My gosh, we.
Speaker 3: Need to get creepy.
Speaker 2: I feel like if I was in that same situation,
Speaker 2: I might do the same exact thing worse. Yeah, I had.
Speaker 3: To work and talk to her. I think over following
Speaker 3: the dude home, but.
Speaker 2: I wouldn't talk about body.
Speaker 5: I would just cut any one off and I'd go
Speaker 5: cry every night about it for seven years and still
Speaker 5: think about my ex like I currently do. If you're listening, sorry.
Speaker 3: Sorry, why did you write her the address down? Did
Speaker 3: you plan to go back?
Speaker 4: I wanted to. I wanted to google who this guy was.
Speaker 3: Okay, what did you find out?
Speaker 4: This guy named Mitch? I found his Instagram and he
Speaker 4: has a girlfriend. It's not your Nicole, not a different girl.
Speaker 5: Karma's already got her. Then, bro that you don't have
Speaker 5: to worry about that.
Speaker 3: I don't know that. Are you sure it's the right person.
Speaker 4: I'm positive that's the truck was in one of the pictures.
Speaker 2: Okay, so what do you want to do with your
Speaker 2: awkward call?
Speaker 4: Here?
Speaker 2: Who are we reaching out to?
Speaker 4: I want to call Mitch's girlfriend.
Speaker 3: How did you stop?
Speaker 2: I don't like it.
Speaker 4: They're probably tagged she tagged in the photo.
Speaker 5: I like this in the world of petty, It's like, Okay, buddy,
Speaker 5: you ruined my relationship, now I'm.
Speaker 3: Going to ruin yours. I don't know about this.
Speaker 2: Think about it. Would you want to get this call
Speaker 2: letting you know your significant other was doing no good
Speaker 2: behind your back? Or would you just rather be blissfully ignorant?
Speaker 3: I don't know that, like I did. There's just so
Speaker 3: many variables here that we could just have the wrong idea.
Speaker 2: I want to do this just for a pure ratings
Speaker 2: reason to do it. I think it's just interesting to hear.
Speaker 3: Well, there's the honesty that we need it.
Speaker 2: I love the messiness. Bless this mess. We're gonna and
Speaker 2: we're gonna call this girl and tell her there's a
Speaker 2: possibility that her boyfriend is sneaking around behind her back
Speaker 2: and she doesn't know it. Before we move on, what
Speaker 2: advice are you looking for from us? Real quick?
Speaker 4: I just think that if I have a radio station,
Speaker 4: like a radio show on my side, it'll be a
Speaker 4: little more believable than if I had just some random
Speaker 4: guy contacting her exactly.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just a random call, and it's like, how would
Speaker 2: you trust that person? Yeah, we're not the most trustworthy people,
Speaker 2: but at least we have strengthen numbers.
Speaker 5: Well, we're a radio show if she believes us, but
Speaker 5: if she doesn't, we'll just say we're a podcast.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we're gonna do your awkward Tuesday phone call right
Speaker 2: after this. It's awkward. It's awkward Tuesday phone call. Hell,
Speaker 2: hath no fury like a Brook and Jeffrey listener scorn.
Speaker 2: Sean was scorned big time. And I'm trying to make
Speaker 2: this recap short as possible. But months ago he did
Speaker 2: a second date update with Us with a woman named Nicole.
Speaker 2: They ended up dating for three months when she moved in. Yes,
Speaker 2: thirty days later she.
Speaker 3: Moved out, Yeah, without notice, unannounced.
Speaker 2: Yes, So Sean wanted answers on why. Ended up going
Speaker 2: to her work and that's where he saw Nicole getting
Speaker 2: out of a pickup truck kissing another dude.
Speaker 1: To be fair, she did leave a note saying I
Speaker 1: left you for another person, So it.
Speaker 2: Wasn't like I wasn't expecting to see that though. When
Speaker 2: he followed her to her work, that's why Sean followed
Speaker 2: the guy to an address, did some online snooping and
Speaker 2: other research that I'm guessing is one hundred percent legal,
Speaker 2: and found out that this guy has another girlfriend. That's
Speaker 2: why he needs our help today. He has the other
Speaker 2: girl's phone number and wants to sound believable when he
Speaker 2: calls to tell her the story so that she actually
Speaker 2: might buy it and doesn't just hang up on him. Jose,
Speaker 2: this is pretty complex, so I'm glad you're going to
Speaker 2: be the first one giving advice. Jazz, what do you
Speaker 2: have to say to Sean?
Speaker 5: Look, man, if you want to sound believable, you can't
Speaker 5: be yourself if you come across as a scorned x.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, that just throws.
Speaker 5: Up a bunch of red flags. Oh, you need to
Speaker 5: pretend that you're someone else in his life. I don't
Speaker 5: know if you're a cousin or like a oh word.
Speaker 3: Oh you want him to out lie about not?
Speaker 5: Yes, you are now a random person in his life.
Speaker 2: Jehan, What do you think of that idea, pretending like
Speaker 2: you already know him to build a little credibility.
Speaker 4: Yes, honestly, I think that's a great idea.
Speaker 2: Well, thank you.
Speaker 5: That's why they go to me first on this one.
Speaker 2: A long road to get there, but I think we
Speaker 2: got somewhere.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I get what you're saying, Jose, because
Speaker 1: it does sound super creepy if he includes a lot
Speaker 1: of details about how he found this guy Mitch right right,
Speaker 1: the Google search and the following.
Speaker 3: But also like, you need to focus on intent. So
Speaker 3: you got hurt.
Speaker 1: It's terrible, and you don't want her to go through
Speaker 1: the same thing. You don't want anyone to go through
Speaker 1: the same thing.
Speaker 2: I think she hangs up on that advice. What do
Speaker 2: you think, Sean, really good?
Speaker 4: I think I'm gonna go with the first plan.
Speaker 3: Oh, I'm going to find out you're a liar.
Speaker 2: Yes, doctor, Her boyfriend is the ultimate liar at this point. Sorry,
Speaker 2: it's like two lies make a right Sean, you feel ready?
Speaker 4: I think I'm ready.
Speaker 3: Maybe be a neighbor. You could be a neighbor. You
Speaker 3: know where he lives. You might live with him. That's
Speaker 3: a good point.
Speaker 2: I'm trying to get in on the line as vague
Speaker 2: as you possibly can with your lies, but best of luck,
Speaker 2: we'll jump in when we feel like you need a
Speaker 2: little help. All right.
Speaker 4: I am so nervous right now.
Speaker 2: It's good. Mitch's very nervous friend calling. It's a good
Speaker 2: I like that. You're building a character for yourself. Here
Speaker 2: we go.
Speaker 6: Hello.
Speaker 1: Hi?
Speaker 4: Is this Michelle?
Speaker 6: Yes? This is she who's speaking.
Speaker 4: Hi. I'm Sean. I work with Mitch your boyfriend or
Speaker 4: you're married?
Speaker 6: Yeah, he's my boyfriend? Is everything okay?
Speaker 4: Oh? He's fine, he's fine. The reason the reason for
Speaker 4: my call is that Mitch has been leaving work in
Speaker 4: the middle of the day and he's gone, He's gone
Speaker 4: for a few hours, and then he comes back to
Speaker 4: the office and he's just super happy with a big
Speaker 4: old grin on his face.
Speaker 6: How did you get this number?
Speaker 4: I'm what it seems like. Maybe you're not listening. He's
Speaker 4: leaving work and he's coming back really happy, like.
Speaker 6: He had a good lunch. Happy.
Speaker 4: Maybe you mean you had a great lunch and it's
Speaker 4: affecting his work. So if you could just stop him.
Speaker 6: I mean, stop what I have. What are you trying
Speaker 6: to insinuate right now?
Speaker 4: Whatever you're doing to entice Mitch to come home with
Speaker 4: you for you know, romance, good loving whatever, He's not
Speaker 4: doing his job is what I'm saying. And so if
Speaker 4: you could stop doing that.
Speaker 6: But I'm not meeting Mitch at lunch. That's just not Oh.
Speaker 6: I have my own job, I have my own work schedule.
Speaker 6: I literally could not do that.
Speaker 4: That's certainly interesting because do you think you think he
Speaker 4: might be meeting someone else?
Speaker 6: Okay, what's going on here?
Speaker 4: I just think maybe he's seeing somebody at lunch.
Speaker 6: You must be his manager or something. And I think
Speaker 6: I might know where he's been going during that time.
Speaker 4: Where where do you think he's going?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 6: How do I face this? Uh? He has been donating
Speaker 6: his genetics for to be produced themselves.
Speaker 4: Well, if I think I know what you're saying, that
Speaker 4: he's making deposits, correct, right, Well, I think you're you're
Speaker 4: kind of there.
Speaker 6: Excuse me.
Speaker 4: I don't think he's making deposits to a reputable organization.
Speaker 4: I think he's donating to my ex girlfriend.
Speaker 2: Wow, have gone worse?
Speaker 6: Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait? What's going on here?
Speaker 6: What's happening.
Speaker 1: For?
Speaker 2: Say? First of all, we are so sorry for the
Speaker 2: conversation that just happened. But this is called an awkward
Speaker 2: Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 3: We're radio show, Michelle. We've been listening.
Speaker 6: Is this a prank or something?
Speaker 4: Please?
Speaker 6: Tell me this is just some sort of joke one
Speaker 6: of his buddies is doing on me.
Speaker 2: I wish it was a prank, but really we're trying
Speaker 2: to help out our listener, Sean here, who has something
Speaker 2: hard that he needs to tell you. Sean, I feel
Speaker 2: like you should take it from here, say it now.
Speaker 4: Yeah, So I had a girlfriend. She left me, and
Speaker 4: then I went to her work and she was getting
Speaker 4: out of your boyfriend's pick up and kissing him. What
Speaker 4: And I think your boyfriend is cheating on you with
Speaker 4: my ex girlfriend.
Speaker 6: I know bitch better than anyone, and I know exactly
Speaker 6: what's going on in his life and where he goes.
Speaker 6: This is just ridiculous.
Speaker 4: Well, you don't know this. This is something you don't know,
Speaker 4: and I'm telling you right now.
Speaker 6: Finding this very hard to believe, having some random person
Speaker 6: call me through the radio and make these wild accusations
Speaker 6: which cannot be true.
Speaker 1: I don't believe this, and honestly, maybe maybe you shouldn't
Speaker 1: right now, but maybe this will lead to, like some
Speaker 1: conversations that you should have with your boyfriend, Mitch about
Speaker 1: where you guys are at in your relationship, or.
Speaker 2: If you want to avoid that, just put a tracker
Speaker 2: on his truck and see where it goes.
Speaker 6: That's help that, you know.
Speaker 4: I give you the address of my ex girlfriend's job,
Speaker 4: and you could meet me there tomorrow and we can
Speaker 4: see the sea for yourself.
Speaker 2: Well that's an invitation you won't find on a Hallmark card.
Speaker 2: But what do you think, Michelle, you want to go
Speaker 2: stock your ex boyfriend with a total stranger job.
Speaker 1: Just say it's not eight thousand red flags that even
Speaker 1: just came up for me.
Speaker 3: I'm going to say you shouldn't do that, Michelle.
Speaker 4: I'm just saying, Michelle, I was where you were once.
Speaker 4: I trusted my partner. I thought I was. I thought
Speaker 4: it was true then that nothing could ever come between us,
Speaker 4: and now I see the light and I'm just trying
Speaker 4: to help you see the truth too.
Speaker 2: I will say, Sean is coming from a genuine place,
Speaker 2: Like we heard his story earlier and it sounded pretty believable. Yeah, seriously,
Speaker 2: and he was heartbroken, so he just he really seems
Speaker 2: like he's looking out for you. Here the best case scenario,
Speaker 2: Shawn's mistaken, but it's totally up to you.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I can't believe I'm doing this. Give me the address.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we're rolling stocking.
Speaker 6: But I need to figure this out for myself, whether
Speaker 6: it's true or not true, and just put an end
Speaker 6: to hopefully this prank call, you know.
Speaker 5: And you don't even need to confront anyone. Just wait
Speaker 5: in the parking lot and once you see it, you
Speaker 5: know it's official, and then you can move on and
Speaker 5: you're not gonna.
Speaker 2: Have to cause a scene.
Speaker 1: You have to confront this, cause a scene if this
Speaker 1: all pans out to be true. I mean, because he
Speaker 1: could turn out this is all just a weird thing
Speaker 1: and he's got the wrong person.
Speaker 2: They're probably just friends and she had stuff on her
Speaker 2: lip and he was getting it off for her, you know,
Speaker 2: put some caramel up there.
Speaker 5: Jeff cleans mouth off.
Speaker 4: All.
Speaker 2: Yeah, just what friends do.
Speaker 1: Because we're sorry about the news, Michelle, I mean really yeah, definitely.
Speaker 2: Can Will you please do us a favor and let
Speaker 2: us know what happens when you go to the address.
Speaker 6: I'll let you know if his belongings are on our
Speaker 6: front lawn by the end of the day.
Speaker 2: Also, could we get the name of that genetics donation
Speaker 2: center that he uses, that is the case we need anything.
Speaker 5: We never know a collected you never know, it could
Speaker 5: be a good Saturday or something you literally can't.
Speaker 1: Do with it.
Speaker 2: A baby. I don't know how this.
Speaker 1: Works, freaking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 3: Okay, this is the moment that I will. I wish
Speaker 3: we could come in with closure, I.
Speaker 2: Know, but we don't have yet either. Oh geez.
Speaker 1: We have asked for an update from these two, from
Speaker 1: both parties involved, and we have heard nothing, which either
Speaker 1: means that everyone forgot about it.
Speaker 7: It's no big deal, it wasn't what they thought there
Speaker 7: got feelings said yeah, or everyone got busted for cheating.
Speaker 3: No one's together anymore, and everyone's moved on.
Speaker 7: Yeah, and nobody listore there traumatized.
Speaker 2: Yeah, why would you want to revisit?
Speaker 1: Yeah, so you know, but we do have a lot
Speaker 1: of comments that.
Speaker 3: Have come in.
Speaker 7: My gosh, so many. I need an updates. I want
Speaker 7: to follow and I'm biting my nails. I'm ready to
Speaker 7: go FBI level stalking.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, if you do that, will you update us.
Speaker 3: I'm not encouraging it.
Speaker 5: But also I almost asked if they're in the comments somehow.
Speaker 7: No, but someone did say that they think the two
Speaker 7: callers should get together.
Speaker 3: The two people both being cheated.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I thought that I was like, that would, but
Speaker 5: that's more petty to get back at people, you know
Speaker 5: what I mean.
Speaker 3: If you're both cute, hey, as.
Speaker 2: Long as you're single, that's the point.
Speaker 3: Okay, that's a good call.
Speaker 1: In Jose, Well, I'm sorry we can't give you the
Speaker 1: closure you wanted, but we do appreciate you listening, and
Speaker 1: I guess it will just take this as.
Speaker 3: A life lesson.
Speaker 2: Just know we're going to lose sleep tonight too.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's Brock and Jeffrey in the morning.
