Speaker 1: The second date up date, Brooke, I have a question. Okay,
Speaker 1: looking back on your dating history, how many boyfriends roughly,
Speaker 1: would you say you stole away from your friends?
Speaker 2: None?
Speaker 1: Unfortunately, don't use that I was too ugly excuse?
Speaker 3: Again No, I did get asked for their number a lot,
Speaker 3: but never not as often mine.
Speaker 2: You were aware your friends. Yeah, they'd be like hey,
Speaker 2: and I thought.
Speaker 3: They'd hit were hitting on me, and then they'd be like,
Speaker 3: your friend's really cute.
Speaker 1: They're like, man, Okay, you were the stepping stone.
Speaker 2: I was much shorter and not as gorgeous as they.
Speaker 1: Okay, again, I said that the too ugly excuse you keep.
Speaker 1: We've heard it, you lived it. Can we just get
Speaker 1: past it? Can we just asked me.
Speaker 3: You asked me, and you wanted an answer, then you
Speaker 3: get mad at the answer, Jeffrey.
Speaker 1: I only asked because one of our listeners is thinking
Speaker 1: of going out with the guy that her friend went
Speaker 1: out with previously. Oh. Interesting, But there's a twist to
Speaker 1: it and we're going to find that out soon. But
Speaker 1: first let's talk to Maya. Maya, how you doing?
Speaker 2: Oh hi, oh hi, Maya.
Speaker 3: I don't know if I want to know about your
Speaker 3: friend first, or the guy first.
Speaker 1: You know, there's a lot of tea. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: there's a lot to unpack here. Why don't you tell
Speaker 1: us how it all happened.
Speaker 4: Yeah, it's all kind of like intertwined, so you'll get
Speaker 4: both in one story. Okay, this was a couple of
Speaker 4: weeks ago. I'm like doing some errands. I'm at the drugstore,
Speaker 4: mine in my own business. I get a call from
Speaker 4: my friend. She's like, hey, what are you doing. I'm
Speaker 4: like nothing, just running errands. And she's like, so, I'm
Speaker 4: going on this Tinder date in like literally twenty minutes.
Speaker 4: Any chance you can just swing by and do like
Speaker 4: an oh hi, you know, just in case it's going terrible.
Speaker 4: Then I can just like extract her, you.
Speaker 1: Know, yeah, like play dumb, like, oh, I never meant
Speaker 1: to walk in at this exact time while you're at table.
Speaker 2: It's a good wellness check, yeah, you know, make sure
Speaker 2: he's not too crazy.
Speaker 4: I'm like, yeah, girl, I got you. Let me get
Speaker 4: these tampons and I'll head right over.
Speaker 1: Perfect. Okay, a little t m I on that, But
Speaker 1: that's all right, So let's focus. Let's focus more on
Speaker 1: the dating situation and less on what's happening to your bodies?
Speaker 1: So you go to this place and meet up with
Speaker 1: your friend and her date.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I do the oh hi, and we're acting
Speaker 4: like we haven't you know, we're putting on this whole.
Speaker 2: Thing, are you guys? Like at a coffee shop? Where
Speaker 2: are you?
Speaker 4: It was like at a bar. There was like a
Speaker 4: happy hour situation.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, did you clock the guy's reaction when you
Speaker 1: walked in? But did he seem annoyed?
Speaker 4: No, he seemed not bothered by it. It seemed like
Speaker 4: good played it off like I'm an act. Treat you guys.
Speaker 4: I feel like it's good to I think it's good
Speaker 4: to see that your date has like friends, Like.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so wait, did your friend need rescuing from this guy?
Speaker 4: No? Well, okay, so I thought it was just going
Speaker 4: to be like me in and out saying hi and
Speaker 4: like dipping. But then she was like, oh, do you
Speaker 4: want to join us? And I was like, well, I'm
Speaker 4: here to help my friends.
Speaker 3: I guess if she asked me.
Speaker 4: To joy, I'm going to join right okay? And I
Speaker 4: ended up staying on this date with them for like
Speaker 4: a full hour. It was a whole date.
Speaker 1: You're a great friend.
Speaker 2: Was she not filling him then?
Speaker 4: I mean, I don't. Here's the thing, I definitely didn't
Speaker 4: feel like a third wheel. I actually kind of felt
Speaker 4: like me and him were hitting it off a little
Speaker 4: bit more than she and it because I'm again, this
Speaker 4: man is a stranger to her, you know, so who knows.
Speaker 4: But like that was kind of the vibe I was getting.
Speaker 4: But like it all goes fine. It wasn't weird or uncomfortable.
Speaker 4: He I mean like I was like, oh, he's cute,
Speaker 4: He's like a good hang you know.
Speaker 1: Okay, do we know the guy's name yet? Yeah?
Speaker 4: His name's Finn.
Speaker 1: Finn. Okay, all right, okay, so you and Finn were
Speaker 1: vibing a little bit better than he was with your friend, but.
Speaker 4: You didn't get his name mobile no, no, no, no,
Speaker 4: So I we go our separate ways. I didn't act
Speaker 4: on at all. It was just kind of the feeling
Speaker 4: I had that're like, oh, it seemed like me and
Speaker 4: him were hitting it off in that way, you know.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 4: So a couple of days later, I talked to my
Speaker 4: friend and I'm like, oh, what's going on with you
Speaker 4: and Finn? And She's like nothing, he's not texting me back.
Speaker 4: I don't know, maybe it's not there.
Speaker 3: Okay, And she was okay with that. It sounds like
Speaker 3: it's like, well, whatever, move on.
Speaker 4: I mean, I feel like she was a little bothered
Speaker 4: by it, because obviously it's annoying when somebody goes to you.
Speaker 4: But I didn't get the feeling that like she thought
Speaker 4: there was like fireworks flying, you know.
Speaker 1: And yeah, but you're saying that you felt fireworks happening
Speaker 1: between you and Finn.
Speaker 4: I've also little something something, So I went into detective
Speaker 4: mode and I find him on social media and I
Speaker 4: get his number. No, I didn't do anything. I'm just
Speaker 4: hoping you guys will call him and do the dirty
Speaker 4: work for me.
Speaker 1: Oh my god. I don't know if I feel really
Speaker 1: comfortable doing this.
Speaker 2: Because because we don't have the friends blessing? Is that?
Speaker 1: Why? Right, there's that she hasn't gotten the green light
Speaker 1: from her friend to call. And also the guy doesn't
Speaker 1: necessarily even know that there was like a connection happening, like.
Speaker 2: Right, it's going to be a totally But why wouldn't
Speaker 2: you just text him first or as my friend?
Speaker 4: I mean, listen, I waited two weeks. He's not texting
Speaker 4: her back. She doesn't seem that torn up about it,
Speaker 4: and I do feel like she's a good enough friend
Speaker 4: that she'll be cool about it. But I mean, yeah,
Speaker 4: you're right, I didn't get her blessing. Okay, okay, the
Speaker 4: first the guy goes like, honestly, if he's not into it,
Speaker 4: it's not a big deal. It was one weird date
Speaker 4: situation and I just kind of felt like we were
Speaker 4: hitting off. And if I was wrong, I'm fine with it.
Speaker 4: It's not crazy deep. You know, she's kind of.
Speaker 2: An ask forgiveness later type of sure.
Speaker 1: And if she can't forgive you, then it's always easy
Speaker 1: to find yourself a new best friend. First, we're going
Speaker 1: to call this guy and try and get you a
Speaker 1: second date. Update. We'll do it right after this second
Speaker 1: an update. You know what best friends do. They show
Speaker 1: up when you need them to be your wing woman
Speaker 1: on a first date so that they can have your back.
Speaker 1: That's right, and if that doesn't go well, they'll swoop
Speaker 1: in and date that guy for that doesn't feel good, Alexis,
Speaker 1: I'm sure Brooke would do that for you any guy
Speaker 1: that you are dating. She is one phone call away.
Speaker 1: I can do it to each other.
Speaker 2: I've seen Alexis's type. But yeah, quite a mess.
Speaker 1: Yeah, text you back, you'll be bitter, But a beautiful
Speaker 1: friendship between you two, they really are. See that's what
Speaker 1: one of our listeners, Maya is about to try with
Speaker 1: us here, because she was the third wheel on a
Speaker 1: date the other night. She observed, she supported, and now
Speaker 1: she's just checking to see if maybe Finn liked her more.
Speaker 1: Oh god, you know typical best friends stuff, as women
Speaker 1: are cruel to each other. Not me, not me, that's
Speaker 1: for sure.
Speaker 2: Oh you don't think a guy would do this?
Speaker 1: Never, Oh you did not have an roommate model who
Speaker 1: would sleep with girls.
Speaker 2: I'm sure you did it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, but you're still friends, and that's that's the
Speaker 3: important part, right, Yeah.
Speaker 1: For now, feel good about this, Maya.
Speaker 4: Well not after hearing y'all say sorry.
Speaker 1: Sorry, that was mostly Brook that probably trying to swoop
Speaker 1: in on that was very rude. I get that, but no,
Speaker 1: we're here to have your back because we want to
Speaker 1: be your best friend.
Speaker 4: Well, and to be fair, I didn't say she was
Speaker 4: my best friend.
Speaker 1: Okay, hopefully she doesn't hear this.
Speaker 3: We should just like go with it at this point.
Speaker 1: And remember the friend does not know that we're doing this,
Speaker 1: that we're reaching out to the guy.
Speaker 2: The guy doesn't know that we have his number. No,
Speaker 2: there's a lot of unknowns in this.
Speaker 1: One surprises in story. But we like that on you show,
Speaker 1: on his social media, he's just tuning in.
Speaker 4: It's you know.
Speaker 1: So let's let's reach out to him right now, see
Speaker 1: if he answers and see what he has to say.
Speaker 1: Here we go. Hello, Hey is this Finn? Yeah? Who's this? Hey?
Speaker 1: You don't well, maybe you do know me. My name
Speaker 1: is jeff from a radio show called Brooke and Jeffrey
Speaker 1: in the Morning.
Speaker 2: Hey, Finn, you're on the show right, Welcome? Why I
Speaker 2: like your directness? Then, yeah, I applaud that.
Speaker 1: Don't worry, it's for a good reason. It means that
Speaker 1: somebody who's a listener of our show really likes you.
Speaker 4: Who.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Well, do you remember you went out on a
Speaker 1: date with a girl a couple of weeks ago.
Speaker 5: You're gonna have to be more specific.
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, you guys went to a bar and did
Speaker 1: happy hour and while you were there on the date,
Speaker 1: her friend came in randomly and sat with you guys.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, I mean it sounds like the friend hung
Speaker 3: out for like an hour?
Speaker 5: Was your name Maya?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: How did that date go? In your eyes? Like, what
Speaker 1: did you think of it?
Speaker 5: We were all just sort of having a good time
Speaker 5: together and hanging out at the bar.
Speaker 4: Pay Like, what did you guys say your name was?
Speaker 1: Again?
Speaker 5: Why is this happening?
Speaker 2: It sounds like you're having a good day already.
Speaker 1: Some Irish coffees this morning. Yeah, to answer your original question,
Speaker 1: remember we're broken Jeffrey in the morning, and the reason
Speaker 1: we're calling you.
Speaker 2: Hola, how do I ask this? It's part of a
Speaker 2: second date update, But it's okay.
Speaker 1: So you know your date, like, you had the friend
Speaker 1: that came in and joined you. What did you think
Speaker 1: of the friend of Maya? Right?
Speaker 5: I mean she was cute, She's kind of cool. Uh,
Speaker 5: it's kind of weird. You don't usually go on dates
Speaker 5: with three people, unless you know, you're like Italian and
Speaker 5: wear those kind of shoes and stuff.
Speaker 2: Like a mom, Like, what do you mean, especially.
Speaker 5: Unless you're like, like, I.
Speaker 1: Think we get it, well, don't. I'm getting the vibe
Speaker 1: that you had a good time with everybody.
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, yeah, everybody's cool. In fact, Caitlyn, I've sort
Speaker 5: of been like hanging out with her a little bit.
Speaker 2: Uh, what you've been hanging out with Caitlyn? Who you
Speaker 2: were on the date.
Speaker 1: With my friend?
Speaker 5: Yeah? You know, she's kind of cool. We sort of
Speaker 5: hitting off. We went on a few other dates.
Speaker 4: Uh.
Speaker 5: We went to like the movies and did my light
Speaker 5: and she met my mom.
Speaker 1: Whoa, Wow, she met your mom.
Speaker 2: Okay, so you're like dating Caitlyn right now?
Speaker 5: If I could have kept my mom, I'm from meeting her.
Speaker 1: Honestly, we did not know a lot.
Speaker 2: Of that, and that's shady.
Speaker 1: I don't think that Maya knew that either, or did she.
Speaker 4: I'm sorry, I really don't know what that is going
Speaker 4: on right now.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you don't know you are you sure?
Speaker 4: No? I mean it sounds like he's saying that my
Speaker 4: friends just lied to me that she's been seeing him,
Speaker 4: and this in fact met his mom while telling me
Speaker 4: that he's ghosting her. Like I don't that doesn't make anything.
Speaker 1: Okay, okay, wow, Maya, thank you for that beautiful reason.
Speaker 1: I couldn't have said it any better myself. But then
Speaker 1: that's Maya who has been waiting and listening in on
Speaker 1: the other phone line, wanting to talk to you. No.
Speaker 4: I mean Maya told me that you haven't responded to
Speaker 4: any of her calls or text for like two weeks.
Speaker 4: And I mean, honestly, I did think you and I
Speaker 4: were hitting it off. So I was like, maybe he
Speaker 4: was more into me than her. But it sounds like
Speaker 4: I was totally wrong, and my friend is, I guess,
Speaker 4: a little insecure about us maybe getting it off. I
Speaker 4: don't know.
Speaker 2: It sounds like, look at what her friend is doing.
Speaker 2: I think she was insecure for a reason.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't think she was dating him. I obviously
Speaker 4: wouldn't have reached out like it actually did.
Speaker 1: Why we didn't know any of this.
Speaker 2: We thought that you were talking to Caitlyn at all.
Speaker 2: We thought that you were totally single and available to.
Speaker 5: Move to another town change my name.
Speaker 1: Why wouldn't Caitlyn want her friend to note about that.
Speaker 2: I don't get it either.
Speaker 4: Owe doesn't want her friend to go do this.
Speaker 1: Exactly what's happening.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but if she knew they were dating. I mean,
Speaker 2: I think I'm on Maya's side on this one.
Speaker 4: Like, no, I would have just not gone for it
Speaker 4: at all. I would have just be like, okay, cool,
Speaker 4: they hit it off. I was wrong.
Speaker 1: That's Can you like step in and give us a
Speaker 1: little bit of clarity here, we're all really confused.
Speaker 5: I feel like Kitlyn felt like you were coming on
Speaker 5: too strong, you know, and it was her date, so
Speaker 5: I mean.
Speaker 4: I mean fair enough. I don't know. I mean, it
Speaker 4: did feel like you and I were hitting it off.
Speaker 4: I tried to downplay it, but maybe i'd into a
Speaker 4: good job of that.
Speaker 5: I don't know. I think she saw the connection happening
Speaker 5: between us and she was scared it was going to
Speaker 5: take away from our connection.
Speaker 4: Okay, Okay, So I wasn't wrong about the connection then, yeah,
Speaker 4: I mean, I mean that's something.
Speaker 2: And what's funny is Caitlyn also read it right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but Caitlyn did I think called dibbs based on
Speaker 1: the swiping.
Speaker 4: So, but that's fine. Like I said, this was low stakes,
Speaker 4: Like if he wasn't into it, he's not into it.
Speaker 4: If he's not into it because he's with my friend,
Speaker 4: that's fine.
Speaker 2: Well, and think of it as a benefit.
Speaker 3: You're going to be taking off of her emergency list
Speaker 3: on the future day.
Speaker 4: There.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Oh my god, this is going to be so
Speaker 3: embarrassing to explain to Kaitlyn later.
Speaker 1: Are you to your friend.
Speaker 5: No, can I explain it?
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm going if I already know, if she's
Speaker 4: in the car, I know she could be listening.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 1: Maybe maybe you guys can sit down all together and
Speaker 1: explain it and figure it out. When we send you
Speaker 1: out on another date. We would pay for three people
Speaker 1: to go to a happy hour and hash it out.
Speaker 2: Why are you laughing? You said it was a good times.
Speaker 4: It was when it wasn't all awkward. Now it sounds terrible.
Speaker 3: You just add alcohol to that and I'm sure it'll
Speaker 3: get better if you really want.
Speaker 1: We can see you and Caitlyn at different tables and
Speaker 1: we'll have Finn go back and forth. Just sit down
Speaker 1: five minutes apiece you up for that, Finn.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it'll be like miss.
Speaker 2: You are a strange mansion.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 1: Whatever you've been doing this morning, do less of it.
Speaker 1: I figure before you meet up with Caitlin.
Speaker 5: I've been working five am.
Speaker 2: He's been working.
Speaker 1: I don't know what co operation all right, Well, it
Speaker 1: sounds like we're going to send you down on another date. Congratulations.
Speaker 2: They said no, they said no.
Speaker 4: To that. That's crazy. Also, he seems like he's on something.
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, so clearly Maya's being sarcastic. She can't wait
Speaker 1: to sit down with and fight to the finish. Whoever
Speaker 1: comes out on top winds Finn's heart rooking Jeffrey in
Speaker 1: the morning, you got a text seventy five nine two
Speaker 1: that says, I like Finn. He sounds fun, right word.
Speaker 1: Apparently our listeners are trying to swoop in on Finn
Speaker 1: never ends and weird. A lot of the texts are
Speaker 1: coming from Brooks phone number, interested in. Uh yeah, you
Speaker 1: the air like Finn, some like random stone or degenerate,
Speaker 1: but off the air, you're like, oh, Finn. I dated
Speaker 1: to see Radio INSIGHT's latest article that I'm the ninety
Speaker 1: eighth most up and coming female radio host under age sixty.
Speaker 2: I dated a dozen Finns when I was like twenty three.
Speaker 2: Been there, done that, Do not need them.
Speaker 1: Mama has experienced with me.
Speaker 2: You are so weird.
Speaker 1: A lot of text men on this one, so it's
Speaker 1: resonating with people. I don't know if it's in a
Speaker 1: good way.
Speaker 2: That is not a healthy friendship.
Speaker 1: Ah, yeah at all. I know they're keeping secret from
Speaker 1: each other.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, swooping in on each other's men.
Speaker 1: Yeah, Mike I'm hoping that we get an update from
Speaker 1: this situation though.
Speaker 2: Somebody date of what if he's still dating Caitlin do.
Speaker 1: Why don't we ask her to make the awkward Tuesday
Speaker 1: call to her friend on the air. It could happen
Speaker 1: like a disaster. Yeah, maybe not.
Speaker 3: Yea.
Speaker 1: Disasters are our bread and butter. Yeah that year. So
