Speaker 1: Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 4: Second date updates.
Speaker 5: Dating apps have been the most preferred method nowadays for
Speaker 5: how people meet, But maybe this is the new thing.
Speaker 5: Oh get your children to do the work for you.
Speaker 1: I mean I could see this because I have made
Speaker 1: so many like truly amazing friends because of my kids.
Speaker 5: Oh okay, we're talking about romantic hookups here.
Speaker 1: But I'm just saying that these little snot nosed title
Speaker 1: humans are great vectors of connecting adults.
Speaker 4: We're making a second husband.
Speaker 2: Yeah, good for you. We're all excited about that.
Speaker 5: And I don't know exactly how it happened with our listener,
Speaker 5: but according to their email, that's how she got matched
Speaker 5: up with a man.
Speaker 1: You got your third grader to do some matchmaking for you.
Speaker 5: Let's figure it out. Her name's Coco, Coco, Welcome to
Speaker 5: the show.
Speaker 6: Hello, Hello, go show this morning.
Speaker 5: Whole thing sounds a little bit unusual, unconventional involving your
Speaker 5: children in your courtship. I'm very curious how it happens.
Speaker 5: So can we ask you about that before we get
Speaker 5: to the date.
Speaker 6: Yes, yes, yes, So I mean I'm a single mom.
Speaker 6: I'm a mother to like a seven year old daughter,
Speaker 6: and she keeps annoying me with wanting a sister.
Speaker 5: Oh okay, well, why didn't you just go to the
Speaker 5: sister store and go buy one.
Speaker 6: She could have just wanted a dog instead, but I
Speaker 6: don't know anyway, but this little daughter of mine decided
Speaker 6: that she was going to write my number on multiple
Speaker 6: sheets of paper and hand it out to her friends
Speaker 6: so they can give it to their dads.
Speaker 1: Oh wait, she was actually played matchmaker and a little genius.
Speaker 6: She absolutely was. She's really dead on having a sister,
Speaker 6: so oh my's a smartie.
Speaker 4: Want to go get her?
Speaker 2: Know that she was doing this?
Speaker 6: No, not a clue.
Speaker 1: And the thing is is it's so innocent, Like, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's true that you didn't know. Like, even if you
Speaker 1: get embarrassed, who cares. Everybody thinks a seven year old
Speaker 1: doing this is adorable.
Speaker 4: And because if you did meet somebody, if you don't
Speaker 4: like them, you can say, oh my god, she's doing
Speaker 4: this on her own.
Speaker 2: I'm so embarrass.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's way better than Brooke writing her own phone
Speaker 1: number in the men's restroom at the school.
Speaker 5: But okay, so your daughter's handing out your phone number
Speaker 5: to her friends saying to give it to their dad's.
Speaker 6: Hopefully kind of like handing them out like baseball card
Speaker 6: or something like that.
Speaker 4: I am dead.
Speaker 1: Okay, So wait, how many calls did you get about this?
Speaker 3: Zero?
Speaker 1: Zero dads?
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, they probably thought it was weird. My number
Speaker 6: would just be passed around, so they threw it away.
Speaker 6: You know, they put in their pocket, they forgot it
Speaker 6: was there.
Speaker 1: So how does this turn into meeting someone there?
Speaker 6: So a few days later, she's like, guess what, mom,
Speaker 6: we're going to the dog park.
Speaker 4: You don't have a dog, though you already told us.
Speaker 6: That yes, I don't have a dog. But she told
Speaker 6: me that her friend was going to be there with
Speaker 6: her dad and that she wanted for us to meet them.
Speaker 6: And it was more of a playdate situation. You know,
Speaker 6: this man had no idea that this was happening. But
Speaker 6: I do meet him, and my daughter jumps out of
Speaker 6: the car. She runs to her friend, and I meet
Speaker 6: her dad and her dad's name is Corey.
Speaker 1: Okay, wait, what were your thoughts on Corey?
Speaker 6: First look and uh, he looks like a typical dad,
Speaker 6: you know, but he's funny, average compliment.
Speaker 1: I can't tell you think the.
Speaker 2: Average dad at schools are Hotbrook. There you go, that's
Speaker 2: what he looked like.
Speaker 1: Don't look at your daughter and explain to her.
Speaker 6: You want better.
Speaker 5: Okay, So tell us about did you interact with Corey? Like?
Speaker 2: How does that go? Yeah?
Speaker 6: So he tries to make conversation and then ask me
Speaker 6: which one is my dog?
Speaker 2: And that's when I padicked, what'd you say?
Speaker 6: I said, it was a black one in the corner.
Speaker 1: Why did you lie?
Speaker 2: She said, panised.
Speaker 1: In the moment, it was such an easy truth, so like,
Speaker 1: oh my god, my daughter knew your daughter was going
Speaker 1: to be here, and they wanted to play.
Speaker 4: Oh that's good, Brooke's I.
Speaker 6: Wish I would have come up with something like that,
Speaker 6: but in the moment, I didn't think, you know, yeah,
Speaker 6: the black one over there, Yeah, okay, yeah, that.
Speaker 4: Could have gone smooth.
Speaker 2: Brook was right with her example. I mean, I mean,
Speaker 2: at least you have a dog.
Speaker 6: Well, then like thirty seconds later, some lady puts a
Speaker 6: leash on that dog.
Speaker 2: Oh no, not.
Speaker 1: There alone, that's my dog walker I hired.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Brook, at this it gets worse because then he's like, hey,
Speaker 6: someone's trying to steal your dog.
Speaker 2: That's what I would say. I'd be like, what the
Speaker 2: hell is going on? Someone's walking away with your pets?
Speaker 4: Like I didn't need this is so funny.
Speaker 2: Then what do you say?
Speaker 6: I said, I said, it was my nanny.
Speaker 5: Okay, So now you have a dog that doesn't exist
Speaker 5: and a nanny that is.
Speaker 6: Nanny that doesn't exist.
Speaker 1: Does it ever get good?
Speaker 6: So I did ask him. I was like, hey, if
Speaker 6: you want to hang out sometime, here's my number, which
Speaker 6: I'm sure he probably already had my daughter. Okay, and
Speaker 6: now it's just been eight days and I've heard nothing
Speaker 6: from him, and you guys can't see me. But I
Speaker 6: consider myself to be pretty unattractive, Okay, so I don't
Speaker 6: understand why a single guy wouldn't want to go out
Speaker 6: with me.
Speaker 1: I mean, do you think maybe he didn't buy the
Speaker 1: whole Nanny dog Lie?
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean he probably thought it was a cycle path.
Speaker 6: I don't know. I feel terriblecause I don't even know
Speaker 6: this man. We've never hung out like that, like on
Speaker 6: a date, and so I don't know. I kind of
Speaker 6: want you guys to call him, get a read on him,
Speaker 6: and see if he likes me or not, because I
Speaker 6: honestly I wouldn't mind dating him for real.
Speaker 4: Okay, are we going to come clean?
Speaker 1: And yes, Jeffrey, we already tried faking a dog on
Speaker 1: the show once and it didn't go well. And I
Speaker 1: don't back.
Speaker 2: In the j does a great dog bar No, that's
Speaker 2: a little feral dog. So maybe that's a bad idea.
Speaker 5: We might have to come clean and tell Corey the
Speaker 5: truth if he picks up and let him not like
Speaker 5: you're just genuinely interested and think he's a nice guy.
Speaker 2: Is that the worst thing to say?
Speaker 6: Yes, I just I wanted to bring this full charkle
Speaker 6: because it's eating me alive.
Speaker 1: You know, it's not the worst thing.
Speaker 5: It's not the worst thing, but you know, I can
Speaker 5: tell you you've got a lot of emotions going on
Speaker 5: over there, Coco. We'll step in and do the work
Speaker 5: for you when we come back and do your second
Speaker 5: date update single dad style right after this.
Speaker 1: Hold on Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Second date update.
Speaker 5: If you're just joining us, We've been talking to Coco,
Speaker 5: a single mom who didn't really go on an official date.
Speaker 5: She was kind of set up by her seven year
Speaker 5: old daughters.
Speaker 4: Are arising.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's way more normal if you heard the first part.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but she was convinced to go to a dog
Speaker 5: park to meet up with a random dad named Corey,
Speaker 5: where she lied to him several times about multiple things,
Speaker 5: but did give him her number and is a little
Speaker 5: disappointed that he hasn't reached out in the past eight days.
Speaker 2: So that's where we're.
Speaker 5: Coming in to help her figure things out. Well, I
Speaker 5: mean it seems so easy.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Do you think that the dad, Corey, do you
Speaker 1: think he even understood why you were giving him your number?
Speaker 7: Do you know what I mean?
Speaker 1: Because like parents exchange numbers all the time, and it's like, oh,
Speaker 1: here's in case our kids want to hang out again.
Speaker 4: That's for safety. Yes, you have my number.
Speaker 1: Like, he wouldn't call you back if that was the
Speaker 1: reason in his head.
Speaker 6: I mean, I was flirting with him, but he should
Speaker 6: have thought that maybe I was interested.
Speaker 4: That's true. You know a lot of times those guys
Speaker 4: do not pick up on that.
Speaker 1: Stuff, especially when a guy is dialed into dog daughter.
Speaker 4: Here we are, he's in down mode.
Speaker 5: Coco said that she was extremely attractive that day too,
Speaker 5: so it doesn't matter what he thought. The man brain
Speaker 5: should have gone to, I should date this woman.
Speaker 4: He should have snapped out of it.
Speaker 1: I hope that's not the first thing that men think
Speaker 1: of every time they see it.
Speaker 5: Well, that is how man brains work. Yes, hot woman,
Speaker 5: I should date.
Speaker 4: Yes, I will marry you.
Speaker 1: The brag you think it.
Speaker 5: Is, I'm not saying it's a brag, It's just how
Speaker 5: these dumb brains work. It's gotten us to this point,
Speaker 5: and let's keep going. It is time for me to
Speaker 5: call dad and find out why.
Speaker 2: You know, want talk to a woman?
Speaker 4: Cool, she likes it.
Speaker 2: Coco's following along. Let's just reach out. We'll see if
Speaker 2: Corey picks up. Here we go, Hello, Hey, is this Corey?
Speaker 1: Did he say woo? Who?
Speaker 2: After I think his phone echoed.
Speaker 4: Hello, Ye, I'm on the phone.
Speaker 2: Hey, sorry, Corey? Is this Corey?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Hello?
Speaker 2: Hey man, Brook.

Speaker 5: My name is jeff This is called Brooke and Jeffrey

Speaker 5: as the second Date Update. Yeah, and we're trying to
Speaker 5: help out one of our listeners that you you met
Speaker 5: the other day, a very nice woman named Coco.
Speaker 7: Yeah.
Speaker 3: So my daughter's friend mom, right.
Speaker 5: Right, You do remember your tracking that man, brain just
Speaker 5: locked right in.
Speaker 3: I'm still I'm not sure what's so? What now? What
Speaker 3: about her?
Speaker 5: Well, we heard that you two had a little interaction
Speaker 5: at the dog park and Coco gave you her phone number,
Speaker 5: but hasn't heard anything from you in many days.
Speaker 7: Yeah, yeah, I mean I guess I did think about it,
Speaker 7: to be honest with you, but just based on what
Speaker 7: I know, I don't think it would be that great
Speaker 7: of an idea.
Speaker 4: Based on what you know? Wait, that was kind of ague.
Speaker 2: What do you what do you know?
Speaker 7: So?
Speaker 3: I mean you know how kids talk?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, they got all the good tea.
Speaker 3: So yeah, her daughter was telling my daughter that I
Speaker 3: guess her mom wanted to have another baby with me.
Speaker 1: Wait wait, her daughter told your daughter that her mom
Speaker 1: wants to have a baby with you?
Speaker 2: Buddy, what do you think about that statement? Cory?
Speaker 3: I mean, I just met this lady one time at
Speaker 3: a dog park. Like what am I supposed to think?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Wait, wait, little daughter is unhinged? Is That's not what.
Speaker 4: I mean?
Speaker 5: Kid?
Speaker 1: Tea is good tea, but because it's usually really exaggerated
Speaker 1: and not exactly accurate.
Speaker 3: And then I heard that she just recently got divorced,
Speaker 3: and it's because she was hooking up with the school
Speaker 3: bus driver.
Speaker 4: Why no, tea, Wait, why would her daughter know that?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Good point.
Speaker 2: Does that information intrigue you? Yeah, I mean I'm curious
Speaker 2: at least to know.
Speaker 4: Think of that.
Speaker 1: Just never rode a public school bus before and there.
Speaker 2: If it had been like this the whole time, I'm
Speaker 2: missed out.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, just for me, that's a lot of
Speaker 3: drama that I do not need to be involved in.
Speaker 1: That makes sense, That checks out.
Speaker 2: Well, maybe it's not true.
Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe it's not true.
Speaker 2: I think we agree.
Speaker 5: If all that was factual, we would understand where you're
Speaker 5: coming from. Sure, But the only way to know for
Speaker 5: sure if it's real is to ask Coco directly. And
Speaker 5: it's perfect because she's on the other line right now,
Speaker 5: listening in on this phone call, waiting to talk to you.
Speaker 6: Oh my god, Hello, Corey.
Speaker 1: I mean, logo, you needed to hear what your daughter's
Speaker 1: spreading on this.
Speaker 6: Yeah, And it's a total misunderstanding.
Speaker 2: So it's not true.
Speaker 6: I never told my daughter that I want another baby.
Speaker 6: Is my daughter is the one that wants a sister?
Speaker 1: Why are we not? I feel like we should start
Speaker 1: with the bus driver.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Brook wants to know how hot was this bus driver?
Speaker 1: No, why would your daughter say that?
Speaker 6: Well, I did hook up with a bus driver, but
Speaker 6: from someone that I met on a dating app, not
Speaker 6: to a school bus driver a dating app.
Speaker 2: Not this school bus driver. The school bus driver from
Speaker 2: three schools over the city.
Speaker 1: Was that while you were married or while you were.
Speaker 6: No, after I got divorced her rebound. Yeah, it was
Speaker 6: kind of like the magic school bus.
Speaker 3: So you guys hooked up on the school bus.
Speaker 6: No, No, No, I didn't ride the school bus.
Speaker 2: She's not missus frizzle.
Speaker 6: This is kind kind of getting out of hand. I
Speaker 6: hooked up with a man who his job was to
Speaker 6: be a bus driver. So but not like our daughter's
Speaker 6: school bus driver.
Speaker 1: Like, No, the most important part is you did it
Speaker 1: while you were single as well.
Speaker 6: Right right, right, Like I know my daughter might have misspoken.
Speaker 6: I just wanted to clear the air a little bit,
Speaker 6: like there's just so many things that are not right here.
Speaker 6: I'm a normal human being attractive, I might say, And
Speaker 6: I'm not a psychohone, gotcha?
Speaker 2: All right, Cocoa.
Speaker 5: Now that we've cleared the air, all the cards are
Speaker 5: on the table. Corey, how are you feeling about this?
Speaker 3: I mean, technically she's still hooking up with school bus drivers,
Speaker 3: which to me is kind of fun.
Speaker 2: Book Okay, what is that?
Speaker 6: Why you haven't called me? Because of that?
Speaker 4: Sometimes you find.
Speaker 1: Out we got a lot bus drivers who listen, watch
Speaker 1: out you got she didn't say plural drivers who happened
Speaker 1: to drive a bus.
Speaker 6: Well, in all transparency, technically I did data second bus driver,
Speaker 6: but he wasn't for long.
Speaker 1: Probably because the apps, you like, the algorithm set to
Speaker 1: bus drivers in your area, the algorithm.
Speaker 5: So now that we have all of this new information
Speaker 5: for you to process, what do you think about, you know,
Speaker 5: maybe giving Coco a chance and seeing if there is
Speaker 5: more of a connection between you two.
Speaker 1: I mean, how many hot single moms can be available
Speaker 1: right now? And she sounds like she's a really loving
Speaker 1: mother too.
Speaker 4: It was all misunderstandings, man.
Speaker 5: Yeah, so maybe you go to a movie with Coco
Speaker 5: and you know, have some dinner and we'd pay.
Speaker 2: For that movie.
Speaker 1: Is a terrible first date. Don't do that.
Speaker 2: You're right, you guys can take a bus ride.
Speaker 1: Kind of competitions out there.
Speaker 2: We'll pay the bus fee.
Speaker 3: Corey, Yeah, I mean I'm talking to her and finding
Speaker 3: out the details. I guess free dinner I would mind giving.
Speaker 1: Yeah, so he was an average dad is a mid personality.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's processing too. Let's give him a little bit
Speaker 4: of a crumb.
Speaker 3: Okay, I'm just saying I'm taking everything into account and
Speaker 3: the free dinner. Definitely, he's not excited at all.
Speaker 1: But that is a very dad answering.
Speaker 2: I'm sorry that he's love bombing you so hard.
Speaker 6: I mean, I feel like I'm a last resort at
Speaker 6: this point, which is not fun.
Speaker 5: Well, that's not what you meant, right, Sometimes you got
Speaker 5: to take what the world gives you.
Speaker 2: So is it a yes or no with Corey? Hell?
Speaker 1: Yeah, don't let your kids find out you guys are
Speaker 1: going on a date.
Speaker 5: Dad's gonna be like my mom's pregnant, Brook and Jeffrey
Speaker 5: in the morning. You know, sometimes the chemistry between two
Speaker 5: people is just undeniable.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and I'm not even talking about Corey and Coco.
Speaker 5: I'm talking about Coco and all the school bus drivers.
Speaker 2: The heat just palpable there.
Speaker 1: I feel like the dating scene is not good for
Speaker 1: Coco right now. No, her whole sell in him was like, Eh,
Speaker 1: he looked like an average dad and then he wasn't
Speaker 1: that into it. Yeah, I mean he did laugh a lot,
Speaker 1: which I will say, maybe there's something in there, like
Speaker 1: once he gets comfortable that is fun and charismatic.
Speaker 5: He there's an underlying sense of humor there. But you
Speaker 5: can't blame a single dad who just wants a free
Speaker 5: Costco hot dog because that's what.
Speaker 2: We're offering them.
Speaker 5: Oh really, parents, single parents especially have super busy lives.
Speaker 5: And as long as we hold that carried out for
Speaker 5: Corey some free food, he is willing to stick around
Speaker 5: and find out where it does.
Speaker 4: And it doesn't work out with them, she can always
Speaker 4: dig one other school faculty member.
Speaker 2: I'm sure, yeah, why not?
Speaker 5: And if you need some help in your love life,
Speaker 5: you can always email the show. We'll call that person
Speaker 5: who's not calling you back. Go find all of our
Speaker 5: second dates. They're up on podcasts wherever you get yours
Speaker 5: at Brook and Jeffrey
