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