WEBVTT - Second Date Update: Microwaved Salad Guy

0:00:00.030 --> 0:00:02.570
<v Speaker 1>Hey, we're doing a brand new episode for you today.

0:00:02.590 --> 0:00:04.830
<v Speaker 1>I feel like I say the same thing every time,

0:00:04.870 --> 0:00:06.670
<v Speaker 1>but I am very grateful.

0:00:06.730 --> 0:00:09.780
<v Speaker 2>Thanks for being here. I mean, I do feel that way, though.

0:00:09.800 --> 0:00:12.140
<v Speaker 2>You know, it's sincere. I just don't want people to

0:00:12.180 --> 0:00:15.840
<v Speaker 2>feel like it's insincere, not insincere. Why not un? Why

0:00:15.900 --> 0:00:17.700
<v Speaker 2>is it in? Okay, see, maybe we should just stick

0:00:17.720 --> 0:00:20.560
<v Speaker 2>to the usual. This is what happens when you go... Okay.

0:00:20.980 --> 0:00:21.320
<v Speaker 3>All right.

0:00:21.460 --> 0:00:24.600
<v Speaker 2>I'd say off script, but there's no script. It's just

0:00:24.640 --> 0:00:29.070
<v Speaker 2>my robot head. What do we got in comments? Someone said...

0:00:30.320 --> 0:00:34.710
<v Speaker 2>I don't know if I can read this name. Zewakalemphilin. Okay.

0:00:34.729 --> 0:00:35.450
<v Speaker 2>Definitely right.

0:00:35.729 --> 0:00:38.650
<v Speaker 4>Said, has Ashton ever done a voiceover for a cartoon show?

0:00:39.170 --> 0:00:40.770
<v Speaker 4>I can't remember the name of the show, but it's

0:00:40.790 --> 0:00:44.170
<v Speaker 4>got a creepy raccoon-like animal that's friends with a bird-like

0:00:44.250 --> 0:00:46.870
<v Speaker 4>creature that looks like an ostrich. I watched this a

0:00:46.950 --> 0:00:49.410
<v Speaker 4>few years ago, and every time I hear Ashton's voice,

0:00:49.650 --> 0:00:50.909
<v Speaker 4>I'm reminded of the show.

0:00:51.010 --> 0:00:51.809
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

0:00:52.490 --> 0:00:54.450
<v Speaker 5>No, I have not, but I feel like I should

0:00:54.490 --> 0:00:56.370
<v Speaker 5>get royalties from this just because.

0:00:56.070 --> 0:00:57.790
<v Speaker 2>You brought it up. We need to find out what

0:00:57.830 --> 0:00:58.450
<v Speaker 2>it is first.

0:00:58.690 --> 0:01:00.670
<v Speaker 1>Why would you be a dirty little raccoon if you

0:01:00.690 --> 0:01:02.310
<v Speaker 1>were an animated animal?

0:01:02.800 --> 0:01:04.560
<v Speaker 2>That just fits. He's not wrong.

0:01:04.610 --> 0:01:05.540
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:01:05.940 --> 0:01:07.060
<v Speaker 2>Little trash bandit.

0:01:07.080 --> 0:01:08.580
<v Speaker 5>Little trash bandit, yeah.

0:01:08.620 --> 0:01:08.780
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:01:09.220 --> 0:01:11.160
<v Speaker 2>All right, let's get to it. Your new episode starts

0:01:11.220 --> 0:01:11.580
<v Speaker 2>right now.

0:01:11.680 --> 0:01:13.040
<v Speaker 3>Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

0:01:13.080 --> 0:01:14.600
<v Speaker 2>Second date update.

0:01:15.819 --> 0:01:17.740
<v Speaker 5>We do a lot of dating stuff on this show.

0:01:17.760 --> 0:01:18.160
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:01:18.220 --> 0:01:21.759
<v Speaker 5>A lot of studies about dating and building attraction. And

0:01:21.800 --> 0:01:25.050
<v Speaker 5>I know one says don't shower for a month. to

0:01:25.090 --> 0:01:28.620
<v Speaker 5>let your natural pheromones give off an intoxicating musk.

0:01:29.580 --> 0:01:29.860
<v Speaker 1>Ew!

0:01:29.980 --> 0:01:31.340
<v Speaker 2>Evan's on toxic.

0:01:31.420 --> 0:01:34.640
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. It's one way to try and lure someone in.

0:01:34.860 --> 0:01:39.350
<v Speaker 5>We've also heard... Fear can actually help heighten romantic attraction

0:01:39.390 --> 0:01:40.170
<v Speaker 5>between two people.

0:01:40.230 --> 0:01:41.690
<v Speaker 2>Oh, yeah. Like trauma bonding.

0:01:42.050 --> 0:01:47.270
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. I was thinking more watching a scary movie together.

0:01:47.430 --> 0:01:49.210
<v Speaker 2>I was like, get in a car crash together.

0:01:49.550 --> 0:01:53.360
<v Speaker 5>Either one could bring you together. We should get robbed together.

0:01:53.450 --> 0:01:56.860
<v Speaker 5>And while all of those ideas sound super fun, it's

0:01:56.920 --> 0:02:00.660
<v Speaker 5>not nearly as effective as what most dating experts agree

0:02:01.120 --> 0:02:02.700
<v Speaker 5>is just proximity.

0:02:03.320 --> 0:02:03.880
<v Speaker 3>What do you mean?

0:02:04.020 --> 0:02:08.310
<v Speaker 5>Being close to somebody physically, staying in their hemisphere, being

0:02:08.340 --> 0:02:11.510
<v Speaker 5>in their surroundings, get noticed is one of the easiest

0:02:11.570 --> 0:02:12.470
<v Speaker 5>ways to build attraction.

0:02:12.490 --> 0:02:14.609
<v Speaker 2>I feel like you're just saying that it's making me claustrophobic,

0:02:14.650 --> 0:02:15.160
<v Speaker 2>but okay.

0:02:15.180 --> 0:02:17.040
<v Speaker 5>Why did you scoot your chair closer to me when

0:02:17.100 --> 0:02:17.680
<v Speaker 5>I said it, though?

0:02:17.740 --> 0:02:18.160
<v Speaker 1>I did it.

0:02:18.180 --> 0:02:18.959
<v Speaker 5>That was a little weird.

0:02:19.220 --> 0:02:21.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. That'd be so funny.

0:02:22.200 --> 0:02:25.490
<v Speaker 5>Proximity is what happened for our listener, Eric, and how

0:02:25.610 --> 0:02:28.429
<v Speaker 5>he met a woman recently. So, Eric, welcome to the show.

0:02:28.450 --> 0:02:30.030
<v Speaker 3>Hey, guys. How's it going?

0:02:30.050 --> 0:02:30.530
<v Speaker 6>Hey, Eric.

0:02:30.570 --> 0:02:32.250
<v Speaker 2>Did you sit in her lap at the bar? Is

0:02:32.310 --> 0:02:33.870
<v Speaker 2>that how you guys met?

0:02:33.970 --> 0:02:35.049
<v Speaker 3>Not quite. No.

0:02:35.380 --> 0:02:35.620
<v Speaker 6>No?

0:02:35.690 --> 0:02:37.840
<v Speaker 5>How did you get proximity with this lady?

0:02:38.440 --> 0:02:43.370
<v Speaker 3>So we work together in the same office. We're not

0:02:43.510 --> 0:02:47.899
<v Speaker 3>seated in the same cubicle. She's down a ways, but

0:02:47.960 --> 0:02:51.579
<v Speaker 3>I can steer. Okay. So I would see when she

0:02:51.639 --> 0:02:56.399
<v Speaker 3>gets up to go to the break room. It would

0:02:56.419 --> 0:02:58.520
<v Speaker 3>be my cue for when I go to the break

0:02:58.580 --> 0:02:59.400
<v Speaker 3>room too, right?

0:02:59.940 --> 0:03:02.530
<v Speaker 1>It's like the pencil sharpener in the elementary school all

0:03:02.600 --> 0:03:03.730
<v Speaker 1>over again.

0:03:03.810 --> 0:03:04.209
<v Speaker 3>Oh, yeah.

0:03:04.370 --> 0:03:07.389
<v Speaker 5>Anytime you had a new shirt, immediately pencils, all of

0:03:07.430 --> 0:03:09.090
<v Speaker 5>them getting sharpened. Hold on a second. For all the

0:03:09.130 --> 0:03:11.709
<v Speaker 5>kids listening, you used to have to have wooden pencils

0:03:11.750 --> 0:03:14.570
<v Speaker 5>in school that you would have to physically sharpen like

0:03:14.620 --> 0:03:15.100
<v Speaker 5>a grinder.

0:03:15.180 --> 0:03:17.040
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and if your crush went up to the sharpener,

0:03:17.100 --> 0:03:17.590
<v Speaker 2>you'd go too.

0:03:17.680 --> 0:03:20.680
<v Speaker 5>Yes, okay. Now that the history lesson is over, back

0:03:20.740 --> 0:03:23.360
<v Speaker 5>to the dating thing. Do you know, what's this woman's name?

0:03:24.160 --> 0:03:25.299
<v Speaker 3>Her name is Regina.

0:03:25.850 --> 0:03:26.290
<v Speaker 2>Okay.

0:03:26.650 --> 0:03:29.549
<v Speaker 3>And I didn't have a pencil to sharpen, but I

0:03:29.590 --> 0:03:31.560
<v Speaker 3>had to have some reason to be in the break

0:03:31.570 --> 0:03:32.940
<v Speaker 3>room at the same time as her.

0:03:33.080 --> 0:03:35.000
<v Speaker 2>God, you're drinking so much coffee. Am I right?

0:03:36.440 --> 0:03:39.470
<v Speaker 3>I had to microwave. I had to microwave some food, right? Oh,

0:03:39.480 --> 0:03:42.020
<v Speaker 3>there you go. And so I would use the time

0:03:42.080 --> 0:03:45.640
<v Speaker 3>to talk to her. Okay. But one time she caught

0:03:45.700 --> 0:03:49.000
<v Speaker 3>me because the only thing I had was my salad.

0:03:49.830 --> 0:03:52.390
<v Speaker 3>So I just put the whole thing in the microwave. Oh. Oh.

0:03:53.750 --> 0:03:54.170
<v Speaker 5>Okay.

0:03:54.410 --> 0:03:55.780
<v Speaker 2>Did she call you out for it?

0:03:56.050 --> 0:03:58.580
<v Speaker 3>She did. And I had to, I had to admit it.

0:04:00.070 --> 0:04:03.720
<v Speaker 3>And you know, she said, well, you could just ask

0:04:03.780 --> 0:04:10.020
<v Speaker 3>me out instead. So I was feeling good. I said,

0:04:10.060 --> 0:04:12.240
<v Speaker 3>all right, how about we go out on a real

0:04:12.280 --> 0:04:16.160
<v Speaker 3>date 24 hours from now here in the break room. What?

0:04:16.300 --> 0:04:17.980
<v Speaker 2>In the break room?

0:04:18.000 --> 0:04:21.580
<v Speaker 5>Dude, you just dropped the ball so hard. I've got

0:04:21.620 --> 0:04:23.669
<v Speaker 5>a second salad I could heat up for you if

0:04:23.710 --> 0:04:24.630
<v Speaker 5>you want some.

0:04:24.770 --> 0:04:25.989
<v Speaker 2>What are you talking about?

0:04:26.110 --> 0:04:28.950
<v Speaker 3>I figured we could prep. I could bring flowers and

0:04:29.010 --> 0:04:33.250
<v Speaker 3>food and we'd just have a date in the break room. Look,

0:04:33.390 --> 0:04:36.370
<v Speaker 3>I thought it was a unique idea. I thought she

0:04:36.390 --> 0:04:37.210
<v Speaker 3>would be into it.

0:04:38.440 --> 0:04:40.250
<v Speaker 2>Guess what? HR wouldn't be into it.

0:04:41.560 --> 0:04:44.779
<v Speaker 5>What did she think of the date inside of the office?

0:04:45.250 --> 0:04:48.470
<v Speaker 3>Well, she agreed at first, but then we were emailing

0:04:48.490 --> 0:04:51.190
<v Speaker 3>and she was like, I don't know if this is

0:04:51.210 --> 0:04:53.450
<v Speaker 3>such a good idea. You know, other people are going

0:04:53.470 --> 0:04:54.630
<v Speaker 3>to be in the break room. Yeah.

0:04:55.180 --> 0:04:55.860
<v Speaker 2>What is done?

0:04:57.000 --> 0:04:57.979
<v Speaker 5>Watching it happen.

0:04:58.240 --> 0:04:58.520
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:04:58.560 --> 0:05:01.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. So instead we decided to go out to lunch.

0:05:02.100 --> 0:05:04.180
<v Speaker 3>It's a really good place that I like. It's this

0:05:04.550 --> 0:05:06.869
<v Speaker 3>Greek Vietnamese fusion place.

0:05:09.600 --> 0:05:11.100
<v Speaker 5>That's an interesting comment.

0:05:11.200 --> 0:05:12.960
<v Speaker 2>It's a unique place.

0:05:13.480 --> 0:05:20.230
<v Speaker 3>She got the tzatziki bun bowl. Yum. I got banh

0:05:20.270 --> 0:05:23.169
<v Speaker 3>mi souvlaki with the grilled pork. I was going to say,

0:05:23.190 --> 0:05:24.409
<v Speaker 3>at least it's grilled.

0:05:24.450 --> 0:05:25.370
<v Speaker 5>Like, that's kind of nice.

0:05:25.670 --> 0:05:27.010
<v Speaker 2>I'm not against that second one.

0:05:27.110 --> 0:05:29.260
<v Speaker 5>I can't even picture what it looks like, though. It

0:05:29.279 --> 0:05:31.000
<v Speaker 5>just sounds really wet. Are you dipping in pho or

0:05:31.120 --> 0:05:32.040
<v Speaker 5>are you dipping in tzatziki?

0:05:32.080 --> 0:05:34.880
<v Speaker 2>Okay, we are concentrating on the wrong thing. It doesn't

0:05:34.920 --> 0:05:36.000
<v Speaker 2>matter what he was eating.

0:05:36.220 --> 0:05:38.200
<v Speaker 3>But, you know, I mean, we got along. We got

0:05:38.240 --> 0:05:40.790
<v Speaker 3>to know each other better, like, outside of work. Okay.

0:05:41.000 --> 0:05:42.289
<v Speaker 5>Was there like a highlight?

0:05:42.560 --> 0:05:44.610
<v Speaker 3>There was a moment. I don't know if I would

0:05:44.650 --> 0:05:49.150
<v Speaker 3>consider it a highlight. It was a little embarrassing. So

0:05:49.589 --> 0:05:54.490
<v Speaker 3>we're eating, right? And I noticed that her bra strap

0:05:54.930 --> 0:05:57.430
<v Speaker 3>was showing like it had kind of fallen down, you know?

0:05:57.450 --> 0:05:58.890
<v Speaker 5>Off her shoulder?

0:05:59.670 --> 0:06:04.729
<v Speaker 3>Her hands were all covered in tzatziki sauce. So I

0:06:04.750 --> 0:06:07.170
<v Speaker 3>just reached over and just kind of pushed it back

0:06:07.190 --> 0:06:08.410
<v Speaker 3>up for her over her shoulder.

0:06:09.390 --> 0:06:10.650
<v Speaker 4>That makes me so uncomfortable.

0:06:10.710 --> 0:06:12.450
<v Speaker 3>I was just, I was, I was trying to be

0:06:12.510 --> 0:06:14.630
<v Speaker 3>helpful and not make a big deal out of it.

0:06:14.890 --> 0:06:17.010
<v Speaker 1>And I could see it as like your opportunity to

0:06:17.060 --> 0:06:22.380
<v Speaker 1>kind of like reach out and touch her a little.

0:06:23.200 --> 0:06:24.440
<v Speaker 3>Bit.

0:06:24.580 --> 0:06:26.880
<v Speaker 5>What was her reaction when you put her bra back

0:06:27.040 --> 0:06:28.760
<v Speaker 5>on for her? Did she appreciate that?

0:06:29.140 --> 0:06:32.080
<v Speaker 3>Well, she kind of stopped eating and she looked at

0:06:32.140 --> 0:06:37.890
<v Speaker 3>me funny and she was like, thanks. Okay. We kind

0:06:37.950 --> 0:06:42.060
<v Speaker 3>of brushed off past that, and after lunch, we drove

0:06:42.100 --> 0:06:45.360
<v Speaker 3>back to the parking garage, and there was a moment

0:06:45.700 --> 0:06:49.330
<v Speaker 3>where I thought maybe something was going to happen, right? Oh. Oh.

0:06:50.130 --> 0:06:52.730
<v Speaker 2>Lunch date in the parking.

0:06:53.450 --> 0:06:54.130
<v Speaker 5>Lot?

0:06:54.230 --> 0:06:55.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm hoping you're reading this right.

0:06:56.040 --> 0:06:58.679
<v Speaker 5>He just touched her bra, bro. Obviously. Okay.

0:06:59.060 --> 0:07:07.100
<v Speaker 3>Well, the problem was our breath was not great. They

0:07:07.160 --> 0:07:13.110
<v Speaker 3>had mints, but they were like these fish mints. Yeah,

0:07:13.170 --> 0:07:15.730
<v Speaker 3>I guess that's a thing. So we did not kiss.

0:07:16.030 --> 0:07:16.590
<v Speaker 5>Probably good.

0:07:17.230 --> 0:07:19.210
<v Speaker 2>You have to go back to the office after all

0:07:19.230 --> 0:07:19.610
<v Speaker 2>of this.

0:07:19.710 --> 0:07:22.710
<v Speaker 1>What is the vibe when you guys both go back

0:07:22.730 --> 0:07:23.630
<v Speaker 1>to your cubicles?

0:07:24.010 --> 0:07:29.150
<v Speaker 3>Well, now that she knows my trick of going into

0:07:29.190 --> 0:07:31.820
<v Speaker 3>the break room with her, I can't do that, obviously.

0:07:31.840 --> 0:07:32.500
<v Speaker 2>Oh, you can't.

0:07:33.060 --> 0:07:36.300
<v Speaker 3>So I really don't know, you guys. I really don't know,

0:07:36.540 --> 0:07:37.480
<v Speaker 3>and I need help.

0:07:38.250 --> 0:07:40.920
<v Speaker 5>It sounds like you've definitely lost the romantic momentum that

0:07:40.960 --> 0:07:42.060
<v Speaker 5>you had gained early on.

0:07:42.100 --> 0:07:42.760
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I think so.

0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:44.520
<v Speaker 5>Can we pinpoint why?

0:07:44.740 --> 0:07:45.380
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:07:45.440 --> 0:07:49.520
<v Speaker 5>Hopefully it's not everything. It couldn't be the bras touching.

0:07:49.540 --> 0:07:50.700
<v Speaker 5>The choice of restaurant.

0:07:50.720 --> 0:07:52.840
<v Speaker 2>The attempt at a break room date.

0:07:52.920 --> 0:07:54.860
<v Speaker 1>Just the lunch date to begin with.

0:07:54.920 --> 0:07:58.300
<v Speaker 5>There's a lot of layers. There's got to be something else.

0:07:58.420 --> 0:08:01.860
<v Speaker 5>Something else that's holding her back from seeing you one

0:08:01.900 --> 0:08:04.140
<v Speaker 5>more time. We'll give her a call when we come

0:08:04.200 --> 0:08:07.020
<v Speaker 5>back and do your second date update right after this.

0:08:07.060 --> 0:08:07.380
<v Speaker 5>Hold on.

0:08:07.790 --> 0:08:09.290
<v Speaker 3>Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning.

0:08:09.350 --> 0:08:10.670
<v Speaker 2>Second date update.

0:08:12.250 --> 0:08:14.140
<v Speaker 5>It's Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. And if you're

0:08:14.160 --> 0:08:19.180
<v Speaker 5>just joining us, really interesting in-person date we just heard about.

0:08:19.220 --> 0:08:19.540
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

0:08:19.640 --> 0:08:22.520
<v Speaker 5>Our listener, Eric, asked out a woman from his workplace.

0:08:22.540 --> 0:08:23.820
<v Speaker 2>Always risky.

0:08:23.900 --> 0:08:28.080
<v Speaker 5>Her name's Regina. And thankfully, they did not end up

0:08:28.120 --> 0:08:31.990
<v Speaker 5>doing their first idea, which was a candlelight lunch in

0:08:32.030 --> 0:08:33.210
<v Speaker 5>their office break room.

0:08:33.530 --> 0:08:35.290
<v Speaker 2>Okay, I don't know that it was their idea. I

0:08:35.330 --> 0:08:37.310
<v Speaker 2>think it was definitely his.

0:08:37.350 --> 0:08:40.150
<v Speaker 5>It was brought up and agreed upon, but they thought

0:08:40.210 --> 0:08:44.900
<v Speaker 5>more of it and scrapped it for a Greek-Vietnamese fusion place.

0:08:45.240 --> 0:08:47.880
<v Speaker 5>Which we're all dying to try now. With fish mints

0:08:48.080 --> 0:08:51.280
<v Speaker 5>to complement it at the end of the meal. So

0:08:51.460 --> 0:08:55.330
<v Speaker 5>they got to know each other. And maybe the only non-highlight,

0:08:55.530 --> 0:08:58.970
<v Speaker 5>according to Eric, was he adjusted her bra for her

0:08:59.050 --> 0:08:59.790
<v Speaker 5>during lunch.

0:08:59.910 --> 0:09:01.530
<v Speaker 2>Not the cups, you guys, just the strap.

0:09:01.590 --> 0:09:06.219
<v Speaker 5>The strap. Because her fingers were covered in tzatziki sauce,

0:09:06.700 --> 0:09:08.040
<v Speaker 5>and she couldn't do it herself.

0:09:08.059 --> 0:09:08.860
<v Speaker 2>But she didn't ask him.

0:09:08.880 --> 0:09:12.040
<v Speaker 5>He just did it. Reached over the table. Not even

0:09:12.100 --> 0:09:15.900
<v Speaker 5>making this up. And now he's wondering... why he's not

0:09:15.940 --> 0:09:17.540
<v Speaker 5>getting a chance for another date.

0:09:17.580 --> 0:09:20.400
<v Speaker 1>I will say, to your credit, she was very into

0:09:20.450 --> 0:09:23.210
<v Speaker 1>the idea of you asking her out. So it's interesting

0:09:23.270 --> 0:09:25.949
<v Speaker 1>to me that she wouldn't give you another shot. You know,

0:09:25.970 --> 0:09:28.370
<v Speaker 1>like everybody can have a date, one date, go bad,

0:09:28.429 --> 0:09:29.490
<v Speaker 1>especially a lunch date.

0:09:29.790 --> 0:09:32.640
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Like I said, it went well. There were a

0:09:32.700 --> 0:09:35.459
<v Speaker 3>couple of hiccups, but I think overall it was a

0:09:35.500 --> 0:09:36.020
<v Speaker 3>good date.

0:09:36.400 --> 0:09:38.420
<v Speaker 2>It's interesting hearing that recap.

0:09:40.440 --> 0:09:42.859
<v Speaker 5>Well, we're trying to move forward from this. We'll move

0:09:43.000 --> 0:09:45.970
<v Speaker 5>on from the fish mints and the Vietnamese style. And

0:09:46.000 --> 0:09:48.810
<v Speaker 5>we're going to get you hopefully another date with Regina here.

0:09:48.830 --> 0:09:50.350
<v Speaker 5>I'm going to dial her number right now. Let's see

0:09:50.390 --> 0:09:51.000
<v Speaker 5>if she picks up.

0:09:51.370 --> 0:09:51.730
<v Speaker 3>Thank you.

0:09:52.210 --> 0:09:52.550
<v Speaker 6>All right, man.

0:09:52.570 --> 0:09:53.390
<v Speaker 5>Here we go.

0:10:02.240 --> 0:10:02.620
<v Speaker 6>Hello?

0:10:02.630 --> 0:10:04.500
<v Speaker 5>Hey, is this Regina?

0:10:05.940 --> 0:10:06.939
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, speaking.

0:10:06.960 --> 0:10:07.440
<v Speaker 1>Who's this?

0:10:07.820 --> 0:10:11.100
<v Speaker 5>Hey, Regina. This is Jeff from a radio show called

0:10:11.140 --> 0:10:12.319
<v Speaker 5>Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.

0:10:12.400 --> 0:10:12.880
<v Speaker 3>Hey, Regina.

0:10:12.900 --> 0:10:15.160
<v Speaker 5>Yes, the Jeff. You're speaking to him.

0:10:15.620 --> 0:10:17.560
<v Speaker 2>I knew that was going to be your follow-up question.

0:10:17.660 --> 0:10:18.660
<v Speaker 2>Is this the Jeff?

0:10:18.720 --> 0:10:19.060
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:10:20.370 --> 0:10:21.130
<v Speaker 2>She's not laughing.

0:10:21.350 --> 0:10:21.790
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:10:21.910 --> 0:10:24.000
<v Speaker 5>That's fine. So I don't know if you've heard of

0:10:24.050 --> 0:10:26.860
<v Speaker 5>our show, but we do kind of a popular segment here.

0:10:26.900 --> 0:10:28.480
<v Speaker 5>It's called a second date update.

0:10:29.780 --> 0:10:30.199
<v Speaker 6>Okay.

0:10:30.220 --> 0:10:31.380
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:10:31.679 --> 0:10:33.600
<v Speaker 5>I'm going to move faster based on your tone here.

0:10:33.640 --> 0:10:35.660
<v Speaker 5>So basically we're trying to help out a listener of

0:10:35.800 --> 0:10:38.320
<v Speaker 5>ours that you went out with one time, a really

0:10:38.380 --> 0:10:39.920
<v Speaker 5>nice guy. His name was Eric.

0:10:40.360 --> 0:10:41.820
<v Speaker 2>You probably know him from work.

0:10:42.350 --> 0:10:42.610
<v Speaker 3>Maybe.

0:10:42.900 --> 0:10:43.380
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:10:43.490 --> 0:10:45.330
<v Speaker 6>Wait, he, he called you guys.

0:10:45.610 --> 0:10:48.810
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. Because we heard you two went out and had,

0:10:49.280 --> 0:10:50.490
<v Speaker 5>A lunch date. A lunch date.

0:10:50.570 --> 0:10:50.760
<v Speaker 2>Yep.

0:10:50.970 --> 0:10:55.650
<v Speaker 5>Very fun, interesting time, according to Eric. And the vibes

0:10:55.730 --> 0:11:00.070
<v Speaker 5>that he's getting now afterwards seem to be much colder

0:11:00.350 --> 0:11:00.870
<v Speaker 5>than before.

0:11:01.270 --> 0:11:02.250
<v Speaker 2>Is he reading that right?

0:11:03.490 --> 0:11:03.730
<v Speaker 3>Yes.

0:11:04.730 --> 0:11:05.630
<v Speaker 6>Okay.

0:11:05.710 --> 0:11:07.350
<v Speaker 3>Yes. He is. Okay.

0:11:07.470 --> 0:11:10.950
<v Speaker 5>He thought the date went pretty well. He did think

0:11:10.990 --> 0:11:13.489
<v Speaker 5>it went well, but he also acknowledges maybe there were

0:11:13.610 --> 0:11:14.990
<v Speaker 5>some strange moments.

0:11:15.070 --> 0:11:15.750
<v Speaker 3>Some low points.

0:11:15.950 --> 0:11:18.670
<v Speaker 5>That he's willing to fess up to. Okay.

0:11:19.420 --> 0:11:21.230
<v Speaker 2>With your bra strap? Do you just want to say it?

0:11:21.250 --> 0:11:23.189
<v Speaker 5>I mean, I don't know how much I can say.

0:11:23.210 --> 0:11:24.190
<v Speaker 4>It makes us uncomfortable.

0:11:24.210 --> 0:11:26.110
<v Speaker 2>Regina, do you know what we're talking about? The bra

0:11:26.130 --> 0:11:27.630
<v Speaker 2>strap moment. Was that a moment for you?

0:11:28.790 --> 0:11:29.150
<v Speaker 6>Yeah.

0:11:29.170 --> 0:11:30.630
<v Speaker 3>And it was not a moment for me, but yes,

0:11:30.710 --> 0:11:32.330
<v Speaker 3>I know what you were talking about.

0:11:32.550 --> 0:11:35.700
<v Speaker 6>He explained it to me. So I'm like, okay, cool.

0:11:35.720 --> 0:11:36.439
<v Speaker 3>Like I understand.

0:11:36.480 --> 0:11:40.880
<v Speaker 6>Like I personally would never have done that, but I understand.

0:11:41.000 --> 0:11:41.280
<v Speaker 5>Right.

0:11:41.420 --> 0:11:44.140
<v Speaker 2>All right. So that, that is not the reason things

0:11:44.179 --> 0:11:44.780
<v Speaker 2>have gotten cold.

0:11:45.740 --> 0:11:45.920
<v Speaker 6>No.

0:11:46.360 --> 0:11:48.940
<v Speaker 5>Okay, that's good. So, well, we're trying to figure out

0:11:49.160 --> 0:11:53.189
<v Speaker 5>what the other reason might be because Eric is kind

0:11:53.230 --> 0:11:53.870
<v Speaker 5>of clueless.

0:11:54.650 --> 0:11:57.190
<v Speaker 6>Okay, so, I mean, obviously he told you about our date.

0:11:57.230 --> 0:11:59.630
<v Speaker 3>Did he tell you, like, everything?

0:12:00.110 --> 0:12:02.670
<v Speaker 1>Well, that was the big highlight he mentioned was the

0:12:02.710 --> 0:12:03.790
<v Speaker 1>bra strap incident.

0:12:04.470 --> 0:12:07.150
<v Speaker 6>Hmm, okay. So, well, I will tell you guys, um.

0:12:08.960 --> 0:12:12.359
<v Speaker 3>As we were driving back from the restaurant, he's.

0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:13.900
<v Speaker 6>Like, oh, we have some time to kill.

0:12:13.960 --> 0:12:15.100
<v Speaker 3>Like before we have to go back to.

0:12:15.020 --> 0:12:17.569
<v Speaker 6>Work, let's, you know, like make up money from what

0:12:17.610 --> 0:12:18.610
<v Speaker 6>I spent on lunch.

0:12:18.750 --> 0:12:20.490
<v Speaker 3>And I'm just like, what?

0:12:20.530 --> 0:12:21.189
<v Speaker 2>Make up money?

0:12:21.590 --> 0:12:22.130
<v Speaker 5>What does that mean?

0:12:22.270 --> 0:12:26.069
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. So before I could even ask him, he whipped.

0:12:25.910 --> 0:12:29.660
<v Speaker 6>Out his phone and signed into Uber and was like, oh,

0:12:29.700 --> 0:12:31.260
<v Speaker 6>this is perfect. This is right here.

0:12:31.340 --> 0:12:32.819
<v Speaker 3>We can just do this quick drive.

0:12:32.860 --> 0:12:33.960
<v Speaker 6>Wait, wait, wait.

0:12:34.140 --> 0:12:35.160
<v Speaker 5>He's calling an Uber?

0:12:35.340 --> 0:12:35.720
<v Speaker 6>No, no.

0:12:35.880 --> 0:12:37.660
<v Speaker 2>He is going to be the Uber.

0:12:38.179 --> 0:12:38.250
<v Speaker 3>Oh.

0:12:38.790 --> 0:12:41.930
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, he's going to be the Uber driver. With you

0:12:42.010 --> 0:12:42.929
<v Speaker 5>in the car with him?

0:12:43.390 --> 0:12:45.670
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, so we did pick up this older guy and

0:12:45.710 --> 0:12:46.510
<v Speaker 6>we brought.

0:12:46.370 --> 0:12:48.170
<v Speaker 3>Him to the mall. And so I'm like, this is

0:12:48.240 --> 0:12:49.960
<v Speaker 3>so weird. Like, this is so awkward.

0:12:50.440 --> 0:12:52.440
<v Speaker 6>But I'm like, you know, like, I do like him.

0:12:52.480 --> 0:12:54.040
<v Speaker 6>So like, let me talk to him. So I was

0:12:54.059 --> 0:12:55.840
<v Speaker 6>trying to talk and he looks at me and goes,

0:12:57.160 --> 0:12:58.420
<v Speaker 6>he requested no talking.

0:12:58.440 --> 0:12:58.500
<v Speaker 3>Oh.

0:13:01.080 --> 0:13:05.300
<v Speaker 5>Oh my God. Somebody shushed you in the Uber?

0:13:05.340 --> 0:13:08.050
<v Speaker 6>He shushed me, like with his finger to his lips

0:13:08.110 --> 0:13:08.350
<v Speaker 6>and went.

0:13:09.690 --> 0:13:12.429
<v Speaker 5>Oh, God. Okay. That makes things a little bit more

0:13:12.470 --> 0:13:13.070
<v Speaker 5>clear for us.

0:13:13.290 --> 0:13:14.310
<v Speaker 2>Well, I don't know.

0:13:14.410 --> 0:13:16.610
<v Speaker 1>I mean, is that really a reason not to go

0:13:16.710 --> 0:13:17.770
<v Speaker 1>out with somebody again?

0:13:18.080 --> 0:13:19.199
<v Speaker 2>You already met at work.

0:13:19.250 --> 0:13:21.740
<v Speaker 1>What's the difference between you're at work together and now

0:13:21.780 --> 0:13:23.900
<v Speaker 1>you're just at a different job together, you know?

0:13:24.200 --> 0:13:26.599
<v Speaker 3>No, because one, I signed up for my other job.

0:13:26.660 --> 0:13:29.820
<v Speaker 6>I never signed up to be a co-Uber driver person.

0:13:30.160 --> 0:13:32.220
<v Speaker 3>And also, he shushed me like a child.

0:13:32.320 --> 0:13:33.470
<v Speaker 2>Okay, that was a problem.

0:13:33.540 --> 0:13:33.679
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:13:34.570 --> 0:13:36.870
<v Speaker 5>Well, I'm not going to shush you right now, Regina,

0:13:36.890 --> 0:13:38.089
<v Speaker 5>but I am going to tell you to be quiet

0:13:38.130 --> 0:13:38.670
<v Speaker 5>for a second.

0:13:38.690 --> 0:13:38.790
<v Speaker 3>Okay.

0:13:38.980 --> 0:13:41.740
<v Speaker 5>While we bring Eric on the other phone line, because

0:13:42.000 --> 0:13:43.920
<v Speaker 5>he's been listening to this call the entire time.

0:13:44.660 --> 0:13:45.480
<v Speaker 6>Are you kidding me?

0:13:46.220 --> 0:13:46.900
<v Speaker 5>No, I'm not.

0:13:48.160 --> 0:13:50.750
<v Speaker 3>Eric. I. Hey, Regina.

0:13:52.290 --> 0:13:53.069
<v Speaker 6>Hi, Eric.

0:13:53.150 --> 0:13:55.109
<v Speaker 5>You better not be in an Uber right now, dude.

0:13:55.210 --> 0:13:58.410
<v Speaker 3>Eric. No, I'm not working right now.

0:13:58.429 --> 0:14:02.069
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, you missed a pretty important detail from the drive

0:14:02.150 --> 0:14:03.510
<v Speaker 5>from the restaurant back to work.

0:14:04.320 --> 0:14:07.079
<v Speaker 3>But to me, it just made sense. I mean, I

0:14:07.140 --> 0:14:09.679
<v Speaker 3>checked on the app. It was literally on the way.

0:14:09.700 --> 0:14:13.059
<v Speaker 3>So it was like, why wouldn't we make a little

0:14:13.080 --> 0:14:15.059
<v Speaker 3>bit of extra money on the way back?

0:14:15.160 --> 0:14:17.980
<v Speaker 2>Dude, I'm with him. That sounds great to me.

0:14:18.440 --> 0:14:21.080
<v Speaker 5>Brooke, this is not your talking portion.

0:14:21.620 --> 0:14:23.420
<v Speaker 2>But like Regina, can't you see?

0:14:23.780 --> 0:14:24.920
<v Speaker 6>It occurs to me now.

0:14:25.650 --> 0:14:28.920
<v Speaker 3>That I don't think I asked you first.

0:14:28.940 --> 0:14:33.240
<v Speaker 5>Oh. Would it have helped if he had asked you

0:14:33.280 --> 0:14:35.060
<v Speaker 5>permission to do an Uber ride?

0:14:35.100 --> 0:14:36.920
<v Speaker 6>I mean, I would... I would have said, let me

0:14:36.960 --> 0:14:39.060
<v Speaker 6>get out because I don't want to.

0:14:38.880 --> 0:14:40.020
<v Speaker 2>Be like, I could have, cause no.

0:14:40.300 --> 0:14:42.490
<v Speaker 6>Cause also my thing is, it just seemed like he

0:14:42.510 --> 0:14:44.810
<v Speaker 6>was just focused on him and what he wanted. And

0:14:44.870 --> 0:14:46.090
<v Speaker 6>you were like, well, I need this.

0:14:46.730 --> 0:14:47.410
<v Speaker 3>I'm going to do this.

0:14:47.530 --> 0:14:50.250
<v Speaker 6>And you're going to be my hostage for however long.

0:14:50.530 --> 0:14:52.930
<v Speaker 2>I think you're missing the point, Regina. You heard Eric.

0:14:52.950 --> 0:14:55.400
<v Speaker 2>He just fell on his sword. He apologized. He wishes

0:14:55.640 --> 0:14:58.080
<v Speaker 2>he would have asked you first. He knows that's a mistake.

0:14:58.240 --> 0:15:01.620
<v Speaker 5>Locking the doors was a bad idea.

0:15:01.640 --> 0:15:04.620
<v Speaker 3>You guys know the worst, the worst part. He only

0:15:04.660 --> 0:15:08.400
<v Speaker 3>gave me a $ 3 tip. Oh, I know.

0:15:08.590 --> 0:15:11.810
<v Speaker 6>You complained about it the whole way back to the office.

0:15:11.870 --> 0:15:14.450
<v Speaker 3>That's going to pay for maybe pita bread.

0:15:14.530 --> 0:15:15.370
<v Speaker 5>Maybe.

0:15:15.410 --> 0:15:18.230
<v Speaker 2>So are you saying maybe the drive wasn't worth it?

0:15:19.670 --> 0:15:24.610
<v Speaker 3>I mean, I did not mean to upset her. And

0:15:25.110 --> 0:15:31.110
<v Speaker 3>now the shushing... definitely also looks bad, but I'm working

0:15:31.250 --> 0:15:35.930
<v Speaker 3>and the guy requested silence and I had to like,

0:15:36.380 --> 0:15:38.660
<v Speaker 3>I was just the quickest way I could convey that

0:15:38.720 --> 0:15:39.120
<v Speaker 3>to her.

0:15:39.340 --> 0:15:41.500
<v Speaker 1>Isn't the silence like when you request it, it's just

0:15:41.540 --> 0:15:42.740
<v Speaker 1>you don't want to be talked to?

0:15:42.960 --> 0:15:43.200
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:15:43.220 --> 0:15:46.120
<v Speaker 2>Like, because my Uber drivers are always on the phone. Always. Yeah,

0:15:46.300 --> 0:15:48.430
<v Speaker 2>that's I don't like, yeah, do you?

0:15:48.610 --> 0:15:51.450
<v Speaker 3>I don't know. This guy did not seem like he

0:15:51.470 --> 0:15:56.490
<v Speaker 3>wanted us chatting about our new budding relationship while he

0:15:56.510 --> 0:15:57.870
<v Speaker 3>was going to the mall. Oh.

0:15:58.290 --> 0:16:00.950
<v Speaker 5>Do you still feel like it's budding? Because if you do,

0:16:01.050 --> 0:16:03.330
<v Speaker 5>I'm willing to offer to send you two on another date.

0:16:03.630 --> 0:16:03.770
<v Speaker 3>Oh.

0:16:03.980 --> 0:16:05.430
<v Speaker 5>And we would pay for it, Regina.

0:16:05.460 --> 0:16:10.110
<v Speaker 3>I mean... I'm hesitant, to be honest, because, yeah, like,

0:16:10.670 --> 0:16:12.530
<v Speaker 3>we had our cute little moment in the.

0:16:12.490 --> 0:16:15.220
<v Speaker 6>Break room and stuff like that. But at the end

0:16:15.240 --> 0:16:18.500
<v Speaker 6>of the day, he just wasn't as considerate as I

0:16:18.560 --> 0:16:19.460
<v Speaker 6>thought he would.

0:16:19.300 --> 0:16:22.830
<v Speaker 3>And kind of what I'm looking for. I think I'm

0:16:23.050 --> 0:16:27.450
<v Speaker 3>very considerate. What about when I fixed your bra strap? Yeah.

0:16:27.470 --> 0:16:28.110
<v Speaker 5>What a gentleman.

0:16:28.170 --> 0:16:28.430
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

0:16:29.330 --> 0:16:32.720
<v Speaker 6>I mean, yes, but also, he could have just let

0:16:32.760 --> 0:16:33.160
<v Speaker 6>it ride.

0:16:33.180 --> 0:16:33.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:16:34.220 --> 0:16:39.690
<v Speaker 6>But to answer y'all's question, if you were serious about Payne,

0:16:39.710 --> 0:16:42.830
<v Speaker 6>I will give him another shot because I don't.

0:16:42.710 --> 0:16:43.950
<v Speaker 3>Want to do another Uber trip.

0:16:44.350 --> 0:16:49.270
<v Speaker 5>So a free lunch Or are we doing dinner?

0:16:49.290 --> 0:16:55.660
<v Speaker 3>I do like breakfast No dinner We'll find a non-fusion

0:16:55.680 --> 0:16:57.440
<v Speaker 3>dinner restaurant To send you to.

0:16:57.240 --> 0:17:01.880
<v Speaker 5>Hey now that was not the problem But congratulations Eric

0:17:01.960 --> 0:17:04.439
<v Speaker 5>You got yourself another date with your co-worker Who would

0:17:04.480 --> 0:17:05.500
<v Speaker 5>have seen this coming?

0:17:05.859 --> 0:17:07.300
<v Speaker 3>Thank you guys so much.

0:17:08.660 --> 0:17:10.899
<v Speaker 1>Don't screw this up. It's already going to be awkward

0:17:10.980 --> 0:17:12.420
<v Speaker 1>enough in your workplace.

0:17:12.880 --> 0:17:14.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, but think of how much we can laugh about

0:17:14.980 --> 0:17:16.100
<v Speaker 3>this in a couple of years.

0:17:16.580 --> 0:17:16.879
<v Speaker 2>Years.

0:17:20.720 --> 0:17:22.919
<v Speaker 3>Hold up. I agreed to a second date. I did

0:17:22.960 --> 0:17:27.570
<v Speaker 3>not agree to my future with you, Celestia. And go

0:17:27.590 --> 0:17:28.090
<v Speaker 3>from there.

0:17:28.170 --> 0:17:29.790
<v Speaker 4>Talk to her years back in your pocket.

0:17:29.810 --> 0:17:32.690
<v Speaker 2>I feel like those are famous last words.

0:17:32.790 --> 0:17:33.790
<v Speaker 3>One step at a time.

0:17:34.270 --> 0:17:37.070
<v Speaker 5>I just cannot wait to send them on their romantic

0:17:37.109 --> 0:17:38.650
<v Speaker 5>dinner in the break room.

0:17:38.730 --> 0:17:40.570
<v Speaker 2>After hours in the office.

0:17:40.630 --> 0:17:46.230
<v Speaker 5>It's going to be hot. Normally we wait a few

0:17:46.310 --> 0:17:49.830
<v Speaker 5>weeks or months for update updates, but I just got

0:17:49.869 --> 0:17:51.050
<v Speaker 5>an email from Eric.

0:17:51.109 --> 0:17:51.510
<v Speaker 6>What?

0:17:51.550 --> 0:17:52.010
<v Speaker 3>We did?

0:17:52.050 --> 0:17:52.359
<v Speaker 2>We got one?

0:17:52.369 --> 0:17:55.690
<v Speaker 5>He's very excited about his next hangout and just found

0:17:55.730 --> 0:17:58.030
<v Speaker 5>a new Scandinavian curry joint.

0:17:58.090 --> 0:18:00.369
<v Speaker 2>Get out of here. You are making that up.

0:18:00.369 --> 0:18:04.800
<v Speaker 5>The craziest fusion. They serve the best tandoori lutefisk kebabs.

0:18:04.859 --> 0:18:07.140
<v Speaker 2>That sounds so gross.

0:18:07.200 --> 0:18:09.780
<v Speaker 5>He is set. I don't know where they're going to

0:18:09.820 --> 0:18:10.540
<v Speaker 5>go yet, but.

0:18:10.900 --> 0:18:11.179
<v Speaker 6>I don't know.

0:18:11.240 --> 0:18:13.240
<v Speaker 5>Do you guys think that they have what it takes

0:18:13.300 --> 0:18:14.980
<v Speaker 5>to actually be a legit couple?

0:18:16.000 --> 0:18:16.640
<v Speaker 6>She does.

0:18:18.760 --> 0:18:20.020
<v Speaker 5>It was her and someone else.

0:18:21.280 --> 0:18:25.110
<v Speaker 2>I like that he's a hustler. He's doing what he can.

0:18:25.160 --> 0:18:27.610
<v Speaker 1>She's got to know what about he gets paid since

0:18:27.650 --> 0:18:31.330
<v Speaker 1>he works in the same office as her.

0:18:31.350 --> 0:18:33.570
<v Speaker 5>The good part is he does seem like he's actually

0:18:33.650 --> 0:18:36.030
<v Speaker 5>trying to be thoughtful and considerate in some of the

0:18:36.090 --> 0:18:39.070
<v Speaker 5>things that he does. He's failing. Spectacularly.

0:18:39.130 --> 0:18:40.930
<v Speaker 2>You know what? But that's where the bar is, Jeff.

0:18:40.990 --> 0:18:43.389
<v Speaker 5>Yeah. Just try to put a little effort in.

0:18:43.430 --> 0:18:44.060
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

0:18:44.130 --> 0:18:46.470
<v Speaker 5>So we'll see what happens with them and keep you updated.

0:18:46.490 --> 0:18:49.600
