Speaker 1: Five Rooking Jewels. Second date Update. Whenever somebody claims that
Speaker 1: they're sick and they can't go on a date with you,
Speaker 1: that's when you show up to their house to make sure.
Speaker 1: You have to make sure that they're not faking it.
Speaker 1: And that's exactly what Andrea did. Who's on the phone
Speaker 1: to do a second date update right now? She called
Speaker 1: the dude out for being sick, and now he's not
Speaker 1: calling her back. But apparently it worked out better than
Speaker 1: what it sounds like. I'm saying, Andrea, what's up? How
Speaker 1: are you? Hey? Juwel hey, Brooke, Harry, y'all good. So
Speaker 1: why don't you tell us a little bit about the
Speaker 1: guy that you want to call today? What's his name?
Speaker 1: His name is Mike? Mike okay, and how did you
Speaker 1: meet Mike? We work in separate places. We were just
Speaker 1: at the same bar for an office happy hour, and
Speaker 1: you thought maybe you could help merge companies a little merger.
Speaker 1: Huh maybe I was I was thinking more. You know,
Speaker 1: he could just do a feature on our next pay
Speaker 1: So what do you like about this guy? He had
Speaker 1: a really sweet personality. I mean, he was just he
Speaker 1: was really smooth. He Uh, I went to order my
Speaker 1: drink at the bar and he just he's like split
Speaker 1: up next to me. He's like, after I said my drink,
Speaker 1: he told me his drink and he's like, oh and
Speaker 1: put them together. All okay, So I just it was
Speaker 1: really sweet. Oh he might put him on the same tap.
Speaker 1: I thought you meant he wanted you to mix drinks.
Speaker 1: I was like, that's weird. A merger, right, So anyway,
Speaker 1: he took care of your drinks. It seemed like a
Speaker 1: nice guy. Yeah, yeah, it seemed like a really nice guy.
Speaker 1: I mean we started talking and he's got really popping
Speaker 1: blue eyes. Total sucker for that. And by the end
Speaker 1: of the night he asked me out. Okay, so in
Speaker 1: your email you mentioned something about him getting sick, so
Speaker 1: you needed to go over to his place. Okay. So
Speaker 1: the day of the date he texted me and he
Speaker 1: had to cancel because he said he was sick. Well
Speaker 1: that sucks. Yeah, you know, I felt bad. I mean,
Speaker 1: I'm a compassionate person, I'm nice. So I offer to
Speaker 1: come over to his place as a care package, and
Speaker 1: he agreed. Oh oh, well, that's really thoughtful of you,
Speaker 1: especially for someone you haven't even actually gone out on
Speaker 1: a date. With yet. Well, I did have a little
Speaker 1: bit of a double motive. I mean, I've I've been
Speaker 1: burned on a first date before, so I just wanted
Speaker 1: to make sure he was actually sick. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: I wanted to see if he was actually telling the truth.
Speaker 1: What happened when you show it up? Um? I knocked
Speaker 1: on the door and he opened it. He was he
Speaker 1: was actually sick. I mean, yeah, he looked, he looked terrible.
Speaker 1: That's what you want to hear from somebody who's interested
Speaker 1: in you. Man, you look terrible. Yeah, he looked. He
Speaker 1: looked worse than terrible. So he wasn't lying to you?
Speaker 1: Then it was? It was bad, definitely not lying, probably
Speaker 1: actually kind of underplaying. And how long did you hang
Speaker 1: out with him in his house while he was sick? Um?
Speaker 1: You know, I offered to stay as long as you
Speaker 1: liked him, and he seemed to really, you know, appreciate
Speaker 1: the care package. So what was in the package? Lube? What?
Speaker 1: No for the throat? Yeah? Yeah, I brought him some soup,
Speaker 1: some crackers, a little bit of candy, unique pretty pretty
Speaker 1: kosher stuff, the normal get well stuff. Not Maybe that's
Speaker 1: where you went wrong. Maybe he's one of those guys
Speaker 1: that likes a good lube to solve his cough. All right, Well,
Speaker 1: I will keep that in mind next time he's sick.
Speaker 1: Nothing subes a wet cough like some lube. So how
Speaker 1: did things end with him? It actually ended a little
Speaker 1: bit uncomfortable. Really, why? Yeah, so we seem to be
Speaker 1: having a good time. You know. I asked her to
Speaker 1: stay as long as he would like. I thought maybe
Speaker 1: he'd like the company. Um, all of a sudden, he
Speaker 1: kind of abruptly went, well I should rest, and you know,
Speaker 1: really awkwardly, just like put on my shoes and said bye.
Speaker 1: I mean okay, after you just brought him a get
Speaker 1: well package. Yeah, so he just kind of killed and
Speaker 1: I'm just like you're talking. He's like, I need to rest,
Speaker 1: get out. It wasn't that rude, but he did motion
Speaker 1: towards the door, like you need to leave. Wow. Okay.
Speaker 1: Did you feel like he was angry or he was
Speaker 1: just uncomfortable because he was sick? Kind of afford to tell.
Speaker 1: I mean, he was sick, so I'm just hoping he
Speaker 1: was in a bad mood. And have you talked to
Speaker 1: him since then? No, he hasn't texted, He hasn't called.
Speaker 1: I mean, not even like a thank you for the
Speaker 1: care package. Nothing. So he's either blowing me off or
Speaker 1: his sickness got worse and now he's dead. At least
Speaker 1: you could take some solace in that, Like maybe it
Speaker 1: was a really bad cold and that's the reason he's
Speaker 1: not calling you back, not because he did something wrong.
Speaker 1: Yeah maybe. I mean, I'm just as confused as you are.
Speaker 1: I mean, he asked me out right, and I choked
Speaker 1: himself the care package, and now I haven't heard from him.
Speaker 1: Oh no, okay, so weird. All right, Well we'll play
Speaker 1: a song, come back, call him and get your second
Speaker 1: date update. Okay, okay, all right, hang on brooking jubil
Speaker 1: in the morning date. Today's second date update is less
Speaker 1: of a second date update and more of a welfare check.
Speaker 1: Just called to see if this dude is still alive.
Speaker 1: If you're just joining us. Andrea is on the phone
Speaker 1: and she wants us to call a guy named Mike today.
Speaker 1: They met at office happy hour, and then when they
Speaker 1: scheduled their date, he told her that he was sick
Speaker 1: and he couldn't meet up. Then she tested him and said,
Speaker 1: oh well, how about I bring you a care package?
Speaker 1: Because she thought one that he might have been lying,
Speaker 1: and two it would be a nice gesture, and he
Speaker 1: actually said yes. She brought over the care package and
Speaker 1: he was really sick. They hung out for a little
Speaker 1: while and eventually he said, hey, I need to get
Speaker 1: some rest. You need to go, and that's the last
Speaker 1: that she's heard from him. So, Andrew, if I call
Speaker 1: this number and somebody answers and asks me if I'm
Speaker 1: next of Ken, should I hang up then? Or oh
Speaker 1: my god, yes, please just hang out then like it
Speaker 1: ever happened. Okay, do you I mean, do you feel
Speaker 1: pretty foolish that you basically accused him in your mind
Speaker 1: of lying and then you were wrong? Um? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: mean I was definitely surprised he was actually sick. But
Speaker 1: I mean there's no reason to not call me back,
Speaker 1: you know, for another date, yeah, or at least just
Speaker 1: to say thank you, because he didn't even thank you
Speaker 1: for the care pact exactly. I'm just really confused. Okay, Well,
Speaker 1: I'm gonna dial his phone ub right now and see
Speaker 1: if we can get your answer. Okay, Okay, here we're going. Hello,
Speaker 1: can I speak to Mike please? This is Mike. Oh good,
Speaker 1: you're feeling better. I've been so worried about you, Mike,
Speaker 1: in this cold you had. Who is this? Oh? This
Speaker 1: is Jewil from Brook and Jewel in the Morning. How
Speaker 1: are you doing? Um? I'm okay. What's broken? Jubil in
Speaker 1: the Morning. It's a good question. I don't really know,
Speaker 1: but according to most people, it's a radio show. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: and we're calling you today because we got an email
Speaker 1: about you from one of our listeners. Sorry, what are
Speaker 1: you talking about? Well, we do a segment on our show.
Speaker 1: It's called the second Date Update. It's where if you
Speaker 1: go out on a date with somebody and then end
Speaker 1: up not calling them after they email us to see
Speaker 1: if we can get you on the phone and find
Speaker 1: out what happened. Technically, you didn't really go on a
Speaker 1: date with this person, but they're still wondering why you
Speaker 1: aren't calling them back. Okay, that sounds pretty messed up.
Speaker 1: But her name is Andrea. Okay, okay, you remember Andrew.
Speaker 1: She brought you a care package when you were sick.
Speaker 1: I guess, yeah, I guess you could say that. What
Speaker 1: do you mean? I guess you could say that wasn't
Speaker 1: it filled with things to make you feel better? When
Speaker 1: you're sick. Yeah, it was technically, I don't know. If
Speaker 1: somebody says I want to make you a care package,
Speaker 1: you kind of expect a bit of care in that package.
Speaker 1: And she came over and it was literally a paper
Speaker 1: grocery bag with can soup in it and like salting
Speaker 1: crackers and like candy, but not even real brand name candy.
Speaker 1: Like what a care package? No, I'm just saying that,
Speaker 1: you know, it's clear that she said I want to
Speaker 1: bring you a care package and then stopped at the
Speaker 1: store and literally grabbed the first thing she saw it.
Speaker 1: And that's what a care package is. She stopped by
Speaker 1: the store, I got you things you needed. Yeah, but
Speaker 1: if you're going to go out of your way to
Speaker 1: do a thing for a person, I'm just saying, you know,
Speaker 1: either put some thought in it or wait till our
Speaker 1: first date. I don't even know this girl. And this
Speaker 1: is the first impression. For the second impression that I'm
Speaker 1: getting is like, here's some stuff that I like, I
Speaker 1: have in my house. Is that why you're not calling
Speaker 1: her back because of the little effort she put into
Speaker 1: a care package for you? Well, no, it's not just
Speaker 1: that that. I mean that was disappointing to say the least.
Speaker 1: But then the thing is, like the energy was so weird.
Speaker 1: So I'm sick, right, and she comes over and, you know,
Speaker 1: instead of kind of like hanging out and maybe getting
Speaker 1: to know me, like the first question, she's asking really
Speaker 1: specific questions about how sick I am. And she asked
Speaker 1: me if I get sick often, and like what my
Speaker 1: symptoms were, and like it felt kind of I felt
Speaker 1: like I was on trial a bit, like or that
Speaker 1: you're at the doctor, yeah, or that I was at
Speaker 1: the doctor, but neither of us are doctors, so I
Speaker 1: don't I didn't know what her angle was, you know, like,
Speaker 1: how paranoid are you? What are you testing me? You
Speaker 1: want to see if my genetics are good? I don't
Speaker 1: get sick that often twice a year, Thank you very much.
Speaker 1: That's kind of what it felt like. But did you
Speaker 1: I mean, it could have been that she was nervous
Speaker 1: and it's the first time you guys have hung out
Speaker 1: without alcohol and she didn't know what else to talk about. Well,
Speaker 1: it just seemed to me that she didn't totally believe
Speaker 1: that I was sick, Like I had to answer all
Speaker 1: these questions about how I was sick and how sick
Speaker 1: I really was, and I felt like they kept going on.
Speaker 1: If it was one or two questions, that would be
Speaker 1: one thing. But at a certain point I was like,
Speaker 1: do you want a doctor's note? He should have supplied
Speaker 1: her with one, I guess so. So it was her
Speaker 1: careless package, not a care package, and her constant grilling
Speaker 1: you about being sick that made you not want to
Speaker 1: call her again. Oh well, I just yeah, I gotta
Speaker 1: I gotta kind of possessive sense about her, and I'm
Speaker 1: not into that. You know, I don't get that sense
Speaker 1: about her at all. And she's actually on the other
Speaker 1: line listening and wants to talk to you, so we
Speaker 1: could ask her if she's possessive like that. Wait, she's
Speaker 1: been listening to this whole thing. Yeah, Andrea, Hi, how
Speaker 1: are you doing? Oh my god, I'm I'm so sorry.
Speaker 1: I didn't know you were listening at all. Um. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I did hear everything, Mike, and it's really interesting to
Speaker 1: hear your take on how things happened. Um well, I
Speaker 1: just you should know. That's how I felt at the time.
Speaker 1: And I was called by a radio show, which apparently
Speaker 1: you send an email to, which doesn't help my general
Speaker 1: feeling about the whole thing. I mean, I was just
Speaker 1: really confused because it seems like, you know, I thought
Speaker 1: I had, you know, reached out and did a really
Speaker 1: nice thing for you, but apparently it didn't quite come
Speaker 1: off as kindly as it was intended. Well, your intentions
Speaker 1: weren't very clear to me, you know, And if you
Speaker 1: do this in the future, maybe put a little more
Speaker 1: thought into that so it won't seem like you just
Speaker 1: showed up with a bag in order to get into
Speaker 1: the door and find out some information. Wow. I mean,
Speaker 1: when you've been lied to once, sometimes you're going to
Speaker 1: see how many liars are out there. Okay, So you
Speaker 1: were testing me, so I was right. I just wanted
Speaker 1: to see if you were all right and make sure
Speaker 1: you know there wasn't any red flags, you know, immediately
Speaker 1: up front. I mean, if you like me and we
Speaker 1: haven't even gone on our first date, Yeah, our first date,
Speaker 1: So probably best not to take the time when I'm
Speaker 1: sick to grill me and find out whether I've killed anybody.
Speaker 1: But Mike, I mean, you've got to listen to her
Speaker 1: explanation right now, because it does kind of make sense. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it makes sense to a paranoid person. She's been burned
Speaker 1: a bunch, Mike, give her like a little bit of
Speaker 1: a break. I mean, you're the jerk that's complaining about
Speaker 1: the quality of care packages over here. She brought me
Speaker 1: cam soup. I could go get canned soup from the store.
Speaker 1: That's not care I didn't know if you were lying.
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're a liar, like you only get
Speaker 1: caned soup, like I'm not going to pull out like
Speaker 1: my mom's homemade recipe like that takes four hours to
Speaker 1: make for a little liar, I just didn't get a
Speaker 1: good first impression. So if I got to stick around
Speaker 1: for the good soup, I don't know if that's worth it. Well,
Speaker 1: let's see if it's worth it. Mike, would you like
Speaker 1: to go out on a second date with Andrea? We
Speaker 1: will pay for it. Well, we'll buy the ingredients for
Speaker 1: the soup that you can make. I can confidently say no, Yeah,
Speaker 1: this is already way too nuts for me. Okay, okay. Well,
Speaker 1: knowing that, then I suppose would also like to not
Speaker 1: go out because apparently, no, Andrew, you can't do that.
Speaker 1: You can't go back and say no. I'm saying no, Yeah, yes,
Speaker 1: I can. I am saying no right now. Wow. Okay, Mike,
Speaker 1: you hear that you could have had a date, but
Speaker 1: now you don't get one because Andrea decided no, that's fine,
Speaker 1: that's just fine with me. Did you hear me, Mike?
Speaker 1: I said no, yes, all right. Sorry you couldn't get
Speaker 1: you guys to go out again, but at least you
Speaker 1: both agree that Andreas said no. Texted at seven eighty
Speaker 1: five to nine two says that guy's a pretentious douche
Speaker 1: with like a lot of osa talking about today's second
Speaker 1: date update if you missed it. Andrea wanted to call
Speaker 1: this dude named Mike. He got sick when they were
Speaker 1: supposed to go on their dates, so she put him
Speaker 1: to the test and was like, well, I'll bring you
Speaker 1: a care package, and he accepted because he was actually sick.
Speaker 1: She really wanted to see if he was lying to her,
Speaker 1: and he wasn't. He was sick, but the reason that
Speaker 1: he wasn't calling her back was because he didn't like
Speaker 1: the care package that she brought over because it contained regular,
Speaker 1: average canned soup and some candy that wasn't even like
Speaker 1: special candy. Yeah, own candy. Ridiculous, So he wasn't into
Speaker 1: it because of that, and then she got upset and
Speaker 1: at the end turned it around on him. So we
Speaker 1: asked if they want to go on a second date,
Speaker 1: update a second date like we always do, and he
Speaker 1: said no, but then she said no, you don't get
Speaker 1: to say no. I'm saying no. No. I really think
Speaker 1: if we back it up, this weirdly wouldn't have worked
Speaker 1: out anyway because first date, and she's already like a
Speaker 1: private detective thinking he's like lying about being sick, and
Speaker 1: that was his point too. He could tell that she
Speaker 1: was testing him to see if he was actually sick,
Speaker 1: so he wasn't into it. But she says, no, that's
Speaker 1: all that's the most important part. Can't fire me. I quit.
Speaker 1: Remember if you want to do a second date, update off,
Speaker 1: you do his email the show and we will call
Speaker 1: the person who didn't call you back.
