Speaker 1: Second date, up date.
Speaker 2: I feel like we hear this a lot from our
Speaker 2: male listeners telling us about how hard it is to
Speaker 2: be a dude on the dating apps because you can
Speaker 2: match with forty women, send out forty messages and never
Speaker 2: hear a word back from.
Speaker 1: Any of that.
Speaker 3: I mean, how many times can you write suck girl
Speaker 3: and nobody else?
Speaker 4: That is so disappointing, Jeff, It's a.
Speaker 1: Lot of letters to type.
Speaker 5: Or do what I do.
Speaker 1: It's a bunch of games to be super Yeah.
Speaker 2: Obviously it's easy to blame Brook for this because we
Speaker 2: all know if she was still single and on the
Speaker 2: dating app, she'd be messaging back every dude who even
Speaker 2: glanced at her profile.
Speaker 4: I've been a problem, honest to God.
Speaker 3: Would not have had time for a full time job
Speaker 3: if the dating apps had been around when I was single.
Speaker 2: Because she is a charity dater and a generous one,
Speaker 2: that is correct. Apparently there's another option out there for
Speaker 2: single men to conce that's even better than the apps,
Speaker 2: and that's where our listener Caleb is at right now.
Speaker 1: So Caleb, welcome to the show.
Speaker 5: Hey, thank you guys.
Speaker 4: Wait, like is as in it's a physical place?
Speaker 1: Not really sure?
Speaker 2: He just said he found another option and alternative to
Speaker 2: the dating apps that he likes even better. So, Caleb,
Speaker 2: I really am interested to find out what you're doing
Speaker 2: right now.
Speaker 5: Okay, Well, a little bit of backstory is I started
Speaker 5: off on dating apps, and yeah, it is a real
Speaker 5: challenge for guys. I heard like one percent of guys
Speaker 5: match with anybody.
Speaker 4: What only one percent of men get matches?
Speaker 1: Wow, it's higher than I would have thought. So that's still.
Speaker 4: That's pretty wild.
Speaker 5: Whether or not it is true, I have to cly
Speaker 5: that's my experience. So I realized, Okay, I just got
Speaker 5: to get out in the real world. Okay, So a
Speaker 5: couple of weeks ago, I found this TV on craig list.
Speaker 5: Looked like it was in a really good shape.
Speaker 4: Okay, and I bought it, and you bought a TV.
Speaker 5: Yep, you needed to. He cleaned up, took it home.
Speaker 5: Turned out it was an Arby's digital Menuh.
Speaker 1: I've seen this happen.
Speaker 4: Wait what, I don't get it.
Speaker 6: So you know when they print like the when you
Speaker 6: go into an Arby's and the menu is on a
Speaker 6: flat screen. After like six years, they just sell them
Speaker 6: and they get rid of them because they're old.
Speaker 4: They're not actually TV screens.
Speaker 3: They're like they can only show the Arby's menus.
Speaker 1: It's oh, they look like an RB's menu.
Speaker 3: It's so no matter what you're watching, you can still
Speaker 3: kind of see the outline of.
Speaker 4: The over the top of it.
Speaker 2: Can you still smell the RBS that seeped into the
Speaker 2: like electronics?
Speaker 1: Guy, I just want to number two so bad right now?
Speaker 4: Armies need screensavers.
Speaker 6: No, but most restaurants, like like Jbox, that makes sense.
Speaker 1: You just sell them.
Speaker 4: So you actually now you're watching Arby's.
Speaker 5: The heck I am. I tried to contacting the guy
Speaker 5: again because I wanted to get my money back. He
Speaker 5: completely blocked me. Of course. Yeah, so I was so
Speaker 5: pissed I decided to take this thing. I didn't even
Speaker 5: want to send it on the curb. Actually took it
Speaker 5: to the dump what belonged? Okay, while it was there,
Speaker 5: it turns out there's this lovely young woman right there
Speaker 5: who was well shut out.
Speaker 4: Your big hack is to meet women at the dock.
Speaker 5: Look at you can't argue with the results.
Speaker 1: Okay, Yeah, it's a good dating hack.
Speaker 2: I guess meeting women. I'm assuming she's just visiting the dump,
Speaker 2: but she doesn't live there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's a order.
Speaker 5: No, no, she was quite lovely good Okay.
Speaker 4: Okay, how do you strike up a conversation with her?
Speaker 5: Like?
Speaker 4: Man, nice garbage?
Speaker 5: Actually, she asked me, why are you throwing away his
Speaker 5: brand new television, big flatter dud.
Speaker 4: When my mom goes to the dump, she often brings
Speaker 4: stuff home, a free for all. Anything you want that.
Speaker 6: People love it, People like literally go her.
Speaker 1: Okay, so you like gave her your old TV.
Speaker 5: Oh no, I wasn't gonna let anybody have that. Once
Speaker 5: she asked about it, that was my opening to tell
Speaker 5: her the story. Yes, she thought was just completely hilarious.
Speaker 4: Did you love a woman who will laugh at your pain?
Speaker 5: Right? Then? She also needed some help, so then I
Speaker 5: started helping her at theater trucks and we ended up
Speaker 5: just really connected. So I got her number.
Speaker 4: Wait, is the dumb the only date because then you
Speaker 4: were being used?
Speaker 5: Yeah? No, not at all. No, No, I got her
Speaker 5: number and I called her after so.
Speaker 1: That would have been funny.
Speaker 5: Well, if we went to Rvy's, I'm gonna known exactly
Speaker 5: what I wanted.
Speaker 1: Where'd you go?
Speaker 5: We went out, just pour a couple of drinks and
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh, she is so cool. She Yeah, she's
Speaker 5: no basically the first person I met in real life
Speaker 5: in like the last decade.
Speaker 2: Oh my god, you mean that you can go out
Speaker 2: with like you've come in contact with other humans.
Speaker 6: Sounds like you have a roofle of dolls and you're like.
Speaker 4: So you had a great time.
Speaker 5: Oh we did. Oh my goodness, she cleaned up so nice.
Speaker 3: I mean, I will say, if you're attracted to a
Speaker 3: woman in her dump attire, you're gonna find her hot,
Speaker 3: like hot hot.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it sounds like it's the first woman that he's
Speaker 2: like spoken to in ten years.
Speaker 3: So it does sound like the hermit that it's a pretty.
Speaker 5: Low bar you can say, Oh you want. All I'm
Speaker 5: going to say is I was at the dump getting
Speaker 5: rid of something, and I managed to get a cute
Speaker 5: woman's phone number. So okay.
Speaker 3: Yeah, so you thought that there would be another hangout
Speaker 3: when you guys were done with drinks and everything.
Speaker 5: I really thought. Also, I mean, it's not like the
Speaker 5: craiglist guy who just completely blocked me. You know, she's
Speaker 5: still responding. I just need you guys to help me
Speaker 5: out and seeing if she's willing to go out with
Speaker 5: me again. It doesn't seem like it.
Speaker 2: Okay, well, yeah, we want to step in and help
Speaker 2: you out.
Speaker 1: We'll come back.
Speaker 2: We're gonna call this garbage gal and see if we
Speaker 2: can get her to agree Landscale Queen, whatever it is, well,
Speaker 2: hopefully get her to answer and get you a second
Speaker 2: date update.
Speaker 1: Right after this thank you second date update.
Speaker 2: You know, Caleb was just on with us telling us
Speaker 2: how hard of a time he's been having matching online
Speaker 2: with women in his area and if the call doesn't
Speaker 2: go well today, I do have an alternative option for him.
Speaker 2: Oh you do, because I saw a news article where
Speaker 2: South Korea is offering foreign men thirty six thousand dollars
Speaker 2: cash to move there and marry a local woman.
Speaker 4: You'll get the money after the marriage or.
Speaker 2: The money plus they'll give you all the used rb
Speaker 2: TV screens that you can handle, due South Korean Arby's
Speaker 2: are the best.
Speaker 4: I actually believe that. Oh my god, that sounds so good.
Speaker 2: But before Caleb considers moving continents, he did meet a
Speaker 2: woman here in real life, and Brookie, you're probably the
Speaker 2: best person to say how it happened, since your parents
Speaker 2: conceived you at the dump, so tell his story.
Speaker 4: Did we call that the Dufort mall where I'm from. No,
Speaker 4: they met at the dump. That's kind of the end
Speaker 4: of the story there. I don't know what did you
Speaker 4: want me to add to it?
Speaker 1: You romanticized it so well, Brooke, thank you.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, I mean she was hauling stuff, he was
Speaker 3: hauling stuff. They're both throwing things into the big pile.
Speaker 2: The bottom line is he was able to turn that
Speaker 2: meet up into a first date officially, but after that
Speaker 2: she's been kind of avoidant.
Speaker 1: And Caleb, did we miss anything?
Speaker 2: There was that romantic enough for you?
Speaker 5: I felt like it was a little more romantic, but
Speaker 5: yeah you okay, did.
Speaker 3: You reach over and take the smudge dirt off of
Speaker 3: her face?
Speaker 2: Because yeah, wait a second, that's not dirty.
Speaker 1: No, this is getting more romantic.
Speaker 2: Yeah, here, guys, let's just call Rebecca for you keep going, yeah,
Speaker 2: because we could go all day with this.
Speaker 1: I'm just going to dial your number right now, Thank
Speaker 1: you very much. Okay, shut up and let me talk.
Speaker 1: Here we go. Hello, Hey, is this Rebecca?
Speaker 7: Oh?
Speaker 8: Yeah, hi?
Speaker 2: Uh, my name is jeff from a radio show called
Speaker 2: Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 4: I got it done there.
Speaker 8: Oh, I don't know, but that sounds okay. I guess wow.
Speaker 6: That's exactly the best description of the Okay, who is here?
Speaker 1: Good morning, we've all been wanting to talk to you.
Speaker 8: Well, I don't like to be on public.
Speaker 1: Radio, but you know this isn't public radio. Brook listens
Speaker 1: to that trash.
Speaker 4: Yeah, definitely commercial radio.
Speaker 2: We're doing a segment here, Rebecca. It's called a second
Speaker 2: Date Update, and we're trying to help out one of
Speaker 2: our listeners reconnect with you after you've gone out once before.
Speaker 1: His name is Caleb.
Speaker 8: Uh Caleb.
Speaker 3: Yes, Yes, I'm dying to hear your like meet cute story.
Speaker 1: Well, we're pretty sure we know the story, Brooke, because I.
Speaker 3: Know we know the story, but I want to hear
Speaker 3: what she thought when she saw him and the dump,
Speaker 3: Like that's so unexpected.
Speaker 8: I actually really like him. He seems so interesting and.
Speaker 3: Okay when you're at the Dumper, when you guys were
Speaker 3: at drinks, he was so interesting, like.
Speaker 7: Both places at the dump, I mean, he seems interesting.
Speaker 7: And then I was like, I don't really go out
Speaker 7: with then that I meet at the dump.
Speaker 1: But well that's refreshing, thank god.
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 4: I bet there's a lot of them though, but.
Speaker 2: Let's let's just back things up for you, Rebecca, because
Speaker 2: here's what we know from Caleb. He told us the
Speaker 2: story and said, you two met at the dump, you
Speaker 2: had a connection there, talked about us, TVs and whatnot,
Speaker 2: and then he ended up asking you out and you
Speaker 2: went out for drinks and had a nice time together.
Speaker 1: That we did okay.
Speaker 3: He said he was so impressed with how cool we were. Like,
Speaker 3: I thought that was a really nice compliment.
Speaker 8: That is really nice, and like I was like that
Speaker 8: at first too.
Speaker 2: I totally was okay, So clearly something has changed, at
Speaker 2: least on your end since your meetup. Could you maybe
Speaker 2: help us understand what that would be so we could
Speaker 2: pass the information to him because he's totally confused.
Speaker 8: So after my date with Caleb the next day, and
Speaker 8: went on the dating app and guess who I see it?
Speaker 8: I see Caleb?
Speaker 2: Okay, his profile came up.
Speaker 4: What it's weird? I feel like you just matched.
Speaker 2: And then you're like, hey, yeah, if anything, it could
Speaker 2: be a sign.
Speaker 1: That he popped up for you.
Speaker 4: Even the algorithm wants you to be together.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 8: I thought it was so great because then I would
Speaker 8: be able to find out more about him. I just
Speaker 8: kept on reading about him and reading more and more,
Speaker 8: and the more I read about him, it's just like
Speaker 8: the more boring he seems like.
Speaker 6: He just doesn't boring answers, you.
Speaker 8: Know, the branded answers like I go to the gym.
Speaker 4: I think, But why would that matter?
Speaker 2: I said, You've already gone out with him, you know
Speaker 2: what he's like in real life.
Speaker 3: So and it also explains why he was having such
Speaker 3: a hard time on the dating apps.
Speaker 4: He is a terrible profile.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I don't watch anyone that does serious answers me.
Speaker 5: My profile is not horrible.
Speaker 2: Oh osy, Okay, Well Caleb was supposed to wait, but
Speaker 2: I guess I need to tell you, Rebecca that that's
Speaker 2: Caleb on the other line.
Speaker 1: He's been listening to this conversation.
Speaker 4: What a not boring thing to do?
Speaker 1: He's assertive.
Speaker 8: Wow, you know sorry, I'm just I don't understand.
Speaker 5: How are you worried about my profile when we went
Speaker 5: out on like one and a half each. That doesn't
Speaker 5: make any sense. I don't I'm not sure I understand
Speaker 5: what's going on here.
Speaker 8: Your boring profile. It just stuck with me.
Speaker 4: Oh no, what was the most boring part of it?
Speaker 1: Like we probably shouldn't recap it.
Speaker 5: I don't know.
Speaker 1: I think we want to bring back up.
Speaker 8: So branded it was like the same thing, like that
Speaker 8: guy's the weekend a GM like.
Speaker 2: I mean, I think that's like a generic thing that
Speaker 2: people just want to be mass appeal.
Speaker 1: I'm just hot.
Speaker 5: Hey guys, I'm still here. Everyone's talking about my crappy profile.
Speaker 3: I I don't think you should take offense to it,
Speaker 3: Like my husband has like this one really cute guy
Speaker 3: friend and his dating profile makes him look like a
Speaker 3: total loser, but in real life.
Speaker 4: He's awesome, and maybe that's you.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean I've heard of people like not wanting to
Speaker 2: go out before the date because of a boring profile,
Speaker 2: but not after it. You should know him by this point, Rebecca,
Speaker 2: Like you've hung out with him?
Speaker 5: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Were you bored when you hung out?
Speaker 7: No?
Speaker 4: Okay, that's funny, that's funny.
Speaker 1: Yeah, see the disconnect, right, you know.
Speaker 8: It's just the last thing that stuck with me. It
Speaker 8: really was.
Speaker 2: It's burned in like the RB's menu on that TV screen.
Speaker 1: Just can't get rid of it.
Speaker 6: You're perfect for each other if you.
Speaker 1: Don't even know it.
Speaker 2: Yes, I mean we need to step back where I
Speaker 2: think we're jumping in too much. Let's re establish the
Speaker 2: connection that you two had with each other. Caleb, talk
Speaker 2: to Rebecca and light that spark back up.
Speaker 5: Rebecca, this is so backwards for the way this kind
Speaker 5: of thing always happened. We met in person, we were together,
Speaker 5: we had a great time together both times that we
Speaker 5: saw each other, and then the last thing you did
Speaker 5: was see my profile and decide you don't want to
Speaker 5: see me. Come on, sweetie, Come on Rebecca.
Speaker 2: Oh God, did you say sweetye a lot inside of
Speaker 2: your profile.
Speaker 1: I'm looking for my sweetie side because of them.
Speaker 2: All Right, we're running out of time here, so at
Speaker 2: this point I just have to offer Rebecca, we'll send
Speaker 2: you out one more time with Caleb and we'll pay
Speaker 2: for the date.
Speaker 4: God, I'm having such a hard time.
Speaker 2: Just don't look at his profile before you answer. Just
Speaker 2: go off of what's in your heart right now.
Speaker 8: I can't get over it. I just can't.
Speaker 5: Are you serious?
Speaker 4: That is so funny?
Speaker 5: The dating app? Screw me. I didn't even meet you
Speaker 5: want the dating app?
Speaker 4: Think you need to go delete that profile.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you need to live at the dump from now,
Speaker 2: But don't forget South Korea. Wants you six thousand dollars
Speaker 2: start a family over there.
Speaker 3: Time us in your pictures of Arby's in South Korea,
Speaker 3: because I want to see what.
Speaker 4: They have on the menu.
Speaker 5: You know, I know you guys are joking, but I
Speaker 5: am seriously considering it.
Speaker 1: Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 2: How many people do you think heard this and went
Speaker 2: right onto their dating profiles and started making alterations to
Speaker 2: sound less boring?
Speaker 4: Caused it took it off.
Speaker 1: I don't know how you make it sound sexier.
Speaker 2: I don't work out. I'm a professional calorie and sin raider.
Speaker 4: I mean, honestly, that would be more attractive.
Speaker 1: I already said that on my bio. It's called foodies.
Speaker 6: I say big foodie.
Speaker 2: I mean, who would have thought to me, cute at
Speaker 2: a city dump would not work out?
Speaker 4: I actually did. I actually thought that this was going
Speaker 4: to be a home run.
Speaker 1: Really yeah, dump and now I want to go fun.
Speaker 4: But the smell is overwhelmed.
Speaker 3: Why Yeah, you're never going to know what that person
Speaker 3: smells like until you get.
Speaker 4: It out of that.
Speaker 2: That could work to your benefit, though, Maybe do like
Speaker 2: a little speed dating event at a city dump.
Speaker 1: Alexis organized walk.
Speaker 4: I'll just stay in the trunk of my car.
Speaker 1: But I get it.
Speaker 2: The dating world can feel like you're in a dump,
Speaker 2: So if you want some help getting pulled out of it,
Speaker 2: email the show. We'll call the person who's not calling
Speaker 2: you back and go check out all of our second
