1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:02,639
Speaker 1: Hey, it's brooking Jeffrey and your Second Date podcast. Thanks

2
00:00:02,640 --> 00:00:03,240
Speaker 1: for being here.

3
00:00:03,400 --> 00:00:04,480
Speaker 2: Yes, I don't know.

4
00:00:04,440 --> 00:00:07,760
Speaker 1: That we've ever had a test that someone has done

5
00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:09,240
Speaker 1: on a date on this show that it's.

6
00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:14,320
Speaker 2: Actually worked out. Ever, ever, ever good, and today is

7
00:00:14,320 --> 00:00:15,280
Speaker 2: the absolute worst.

8
00:00:15,520 --> 00:00:19,040
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's so bad, so bad, you're gonna hear it

9
00:00:19,040 --> 00:00:22,239
Speaker 1: in a moment. But first, for all those that checked

10
00:00:22,239 --> 00:00:25,720
Speaker 1: out the Weekends podcast, we have been hosting our full

11
00:00:25,760 --> 00:00:30,040
Speaker 1: show one episode every Sunday and yesterday, it's like people

12
00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:32,120
Speaker 1: are yeah, positive.

13
00:00:31,920 --> 00:00:35,040
Speaker 3: Yeah, they are positive. Question to Mark, you can all

14
00:00:35,080 --> 00:00:38,880
Speaker 3: read the positive, that's for sure. Yeah, Tristan said, literally

15
00:00:38,920 --> 00:00:41,240
Speaker 3: been skipping this episode for the last couple of days

16
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:44,000
Speaker 3: because it was too long, but literally the best one

17
00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:45,120
Speaker 3: hour of my wik.

18
00:00:47,120 --> 00:00:49,559
Speaker 2: And then because our full episodes are one hour, they

19
00:00:49,560 --> 00:00:51,400
Speaker 2: are Yeah, it's a lot of us, we get it.

20
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,480
Speaker 3: And then someone else said, Jeffrey totally wanted this post

21
00:00:53,560 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 3: it so we'd all know it was his birthday, and

22
00:00:55,480 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 3: I realized we post Jeff's Yeah, do you want to

23
00:00:59,040 --> 00:00:59,880
Speaker 3: hear Jeff's birthday?

24
00:01:00,320 --> 00:01:02,560
Speaker 2: Just yesterday?

25
00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:06,319
Speaker 1: But right now brand new Second Date. Gonna love your

26
00:01:06,360 --> 00:01:09,240
Speaker 1: comments after this one. It starts right now.

27
00:01:10,400 --> 00:01:14,920
Speaker 4: Second Date updated. We cover a lot of trends on

28
00:01:14,959 --> 00:01:20,280
Speaker 4: this show and weird dating terms like bread crumbing, Darth vadering.

29
00:01:21,520 --> 00:01:23,640
Speaker 4: That's where you battle your own son to see who

30
00:01:23,720 --> 00:01:24,920
Speaker 4: gets to kiss your sister.

31
00:01:25,720 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 2: I do not.

32
00:01:29,280 --> 00:01:32,160
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, it's big on the East coast right now.

33
00:01:32,200 --> 00:01:35,760
Speaker 4: There's definitely some weird ones out there, and one we

34
00:01:35,840 --> 00:01:38,920
Speaker 4: came across recently is called the Alpha Challenge.

35
00:01:39,240 --> 00:01:39,640
Speaker 2: What's Up?

36
00:01:40,160 --> 00:01:44,440
Speaker 4: And I think our listener might fit underneath that umbrella

37
00:01:44,440 --> 00:01:48,040
Speaker 4: because she admits she likes to test men whenever they

38
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:51,440
Speaker 4: go out on a date. She says she feels like

39
00:01:51,600 --> 00:01:54,400
Speaker 4: maybe she crossed the line this most recent time. So

40
00:01:54,480 --> 00:01:56,200
Speaker 4: let's welcome to the show. Mallory.

41
00:01:56,640 --> 00:01:59,920
Speaker 5: How you doing, Mallory, Hi guys, I'm okay. Oh my god.

42
00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,080
Speaker 1: I'll tell you We've never had a dating test that

43
00:02:02,120 --> 00:02:05,880
Speaker 1: hasn't failed on this show. Like every time someone is like,

44
00:02:06,080 --> 00:02:07,960
Speaker 1: I'm going to test them, like it never works out

45
00:02:08,600 --> 00:02:10,480
Speaker 1: backfires like it works absolutely.

46
00:02:10,800 --> 00:02:13,919
Speaker 4: So you said, maybe you feel like you crossed the line.

47
00:02:13,919 --> 00:02:15,519
Speaker 4: Why don't you start by telling us the name of

48
00:02:15,560 --> 00:02:16,680
Speaker 4: this guy that you met?

49
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:20,400
Speaker 6: Okay, So the guy's name is John and we met

50
00:02:20,400 --> 00:02:24,760
Speaker 6: online and so many men's profiles they time act like

51
00:02:24,760 --> 00:02:28,320
Speaker 6: their alps like a big fish thing. I'm such a man,

52
00:02:28,880 --> 00:02:30,440
Speaker 6: and it's like, if you got to do the big fish,

53
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:32,960
Speaker 6: I don't know. Look, it's really all okay.

54
00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:37,080
Speaker 2: Wow, girl, say that I offended right now here. Now

55
00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,080
Speaker 2: women hate the fish pictures? Really, Yeah, who are they for?

56
00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:41,160
Speaker 2: They're only for you?

57
00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:43,000
Speaker 6: These are only for you.

58
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:45,239
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, Well you don't get to split any of

59
00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:47,280
Speaker 4: our fish then after we come and cook it up

60
00:02:48,360 --> 00:02:48,680
Speaker 4: for us.

61
00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,440
Speaker 2: I'm sure you know how to fish.

62
00:02:50,639 --> 00:02:54,079
Speaker 4: Yeah, my housekeeper Lucy does, and that's all that matters.

63
00:02:56,120 --> 00:02:58,040
Speaker 1: Are these the alphas that you're talking about, just like

64
00:02:58,120 --> 00:02:59,920
Speaker 1: Jeffrey exactly?

65
00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,320
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, anyway back to this guy John, what was

66
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:03,760
Speaker 4: his deal?

67
00:03:04,760 --> 00:03:08,000
Speaker 6: John did have his humongous fish picture, and I was like,

68
00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:10,880
Speaker 6: all right, you look kind of manly. So I'm thinking

69
00:03:11,000 --> 00:03:13,200
Speaker 6: like if this is legit, if he's anything like this, like.

70
00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:13,560
Speaker 4: We're good.

71
00:03:13,600 --> 00:03:17,639
Speaker 6: We're probably gonna make out. Well here, okay, all right,

72
00:03:18,520 --> 00:03:19,200
Speaker 6: yeah that too.

73
00:03:20,120 --> 00:03:23,519
Speaker 2: She's a fan of this, yeah you were, yes, total.

74
00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:25,280
Speaker 6: Fan, total fan. And so for our first date, he

75
00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:28,639
Speaker 6: was like, let's do an escape room. And I've done

76
00:03:28,639 --> 00:03:30,880
Speaker 6: those before. I've done those with guys on dates, and

77
00:03:31,480 --> 00:03:33,400
Speaker 6: I think you see a lot about a person because

78
00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:36,200
Speaker 6: there's all this problem solving and puzzle and you really get.

79
00:03:36,080 --> 00:03:38,160
Speaker 4: To see, Yeah, it's a good chance for him to

80
00:03:38,200 --> 00:03:40,360
Speaker 4: show off all of his alpha skills in order to

81
00:03:40,640 --> 00:03:41,640
Speaker 4: escape you from the room.

82
00:03:42,080 --> 00:03:43,400
Speaker 6: Yeah, like, let me see what you got.

83
00:03:43,480 --> 00:03:43,760
Speaker 4: Okay.

84
00:03:44,480 --> 00:03:47,200
Speaker 6: We met at a bar near by first, and he

85
00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:51,920
Speaker 6: walks in looking real good. He's sefy, he's tall, and

86
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:53,080
Speaker 6: I was I was all about it.

87
00:03:53,160 --> 00:03:53,480
Speaker 2: Okay.

88
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:57,600
Speaker 1: So he's like man's man and you're you're totally digging it.

89
00:03:57,640 --> 00:04:00,720
Speaker 6: Totally digging it. So I figured, okay, how do I

90
00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:02,840
Speaker 6: test this guy? Like, how am I going to figure

91
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:05,440
Speaker 6: out if he's really an alpha in this escape room?

92
00:04:05,480 --> 00:04:08,840
Speaker 6: So we went to the first room and he actually

93
00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,920
Speaker 6: surprised me because it was like this kind of creepy

94
00:04:12,000 --> 00:04:14,600
Speaker 6: room and he's like, oh, I recognize this place. I

95
00:04:14,680 --> 00:04:15,760
Speaker 6: think my ex limbd here.

96
00:04:16,160 --> 00:04:21,480
Speaker 1: I was like, okay, so he's funny too, Okay, yeah exactly,

97
00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:22,520
Speaker 1: So that could go either way.

98
00:04:22,560 --> 00:04:24,280
Speaker 6: Are you funny or you know, can you own it?

99
00:04:24,360 --> 00:04:26,640
Speaker 6: So then we go to the second room and there's

100
00:04:26,680 --> 00:04:30,320
Speaker 6: this like closet thing, and so he goes in and

101
00:04:30,400 --> 00:04:33,440
Speaker 6: I just closed the door behind him and I locked it.

102
00:04:33,600 --> 00:04:36,520
Speaker 4: Wait, whoa, whoa? What you locked it in a closet.

103
00:04:36,800 --> 00:04:38,560
Speaker 6: I locked him in the clouse, and I'm like, all right,

104
00:04:38,560 --> 00:04:40,880
Speaker 6: this is the perfect test. Can this man be a

105
00:04:40,920 --> 00:04:42,240
Speaker 6: man and get himself out of there?

106
00:04:42,520 --> 00:04:44,040
Speaker 2: I don't know. I feel like it's a red flag

107
00:04:44,080 --> 00:04:45,200
Speaker 2: if a guy can pick a lock.

108
00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:48,920
Speaker 6: Yeah, no, I think I think I'd be like this

109
00:04:49,000 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 6: man knows how to be a man. I think I

110
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:51,479
Speaker 6: would have I would have done it.

111
00:04:51,880 --> 00:04:53,320
Speaker 4: Okay, So what happened?

112
00:04:53,440 --> 00:04:56,280
Speaker 6: So he's in there like fumbling around for like about

113
00:04:56,320 --> 00:04:56,839
Speaker 6: ten minutes?

114
00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:58,360
Speaker 1: WHOA was not? Wait?

115
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,320
Speaker 2: What was his mood? Was he geting angry at you?

116
00:05:01,839 --> 00:05:03,800
Speaker 6: At the very beginning, he was laughing, he thought it

117
00:05:03,839 --> 00:05:07,440
Speaker 6: was a joke, But as the minutes went on, he

118
00:05:07,640 --> 00:05:10,080
Speaker 6: was not as playful. He was kind of pissed, and.

119
00:05:11,720 --> 00:05:14,520
Speaker 3: There was imagine what the person who's watching your room

120
00:05:14,600 --> 00:05:17,640
Speaker 3: is thinking.

121
00:05:17,880 --> 00:05:20,720
Speaker 4: Yeah, I don't know. A real alpha would have taken

122
00:05:20,720 --> 00:05:22,960
Speaker 4: out his fish from his pocket, picked the bones and

123
00:05:23,000 --> 00:05:25,640
Speaker 4: turned them into a key and unlocked the door.

124
00:05:26,440 --> 00:05:27,800
Speaker 6: That's the kind of man I want.

125
00:05:28,040 --> 00:05:29,840
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, I see where you're coming from.

126
00:05:30,040 --> 00:05:31,000
Speaker 2: Do you feel bad at all?

127
00:05:31,720 --> 00:05:32,200
Speaker 5: Not at all.

128
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:34,520
Speaker 6: I feel like this was a really solid test, and

129
00:05:35,200 --> 00:05:37,440
Speaker 6: I feel like I gave the guy a really you know,

130
00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:39,800
Speaker 6: like an opportunity to prove himself. So I think I

131
00:05:39,839 --> 00:05:42,440
Speaker 6: was doing a good thing. And then the guy that

132
00:05:42,600 --> 00:05:45,000
Speaker 6: ran the escape room he like walked in. He's like,

133
00:05:45,320 --> 00:05:49,480
Speaker 6: is everything okay in here? He's like, you want me

134
00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:50,120
Speaker 6: to unlock it?

135
00:05:50,200 --> 00:05:53,320
Speaker 5: And I'm like no, no, no, no, this was the

136
00:05:53,360 --> 00:05:53,800
Speaker 5: whole test.

137
00:05:53,880 --> 00:05:56,280
Speaker 3: I can't let him out, and we're wondering why he's

138
00:05:56,320 --> 00:05:57,120
Speaker 3: not calling you back?

139
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:01,760
Speaker 4: How does the escape aprom experience and did he figure

140
00:06:01,760 --> 00:06:02,440
Speaker 4: it out?

141
00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:04,360
Speaker 6: So we give him a few more minutes and then

142
00:06:04,600 --> 00:06:07,640
Speaker 6: I let the guy let him out and he was

143
00:06:08,160 --> 00:06:11,520
Speaker 6: super salty. Yeah, you know what, It's fine because at

144
00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,520
Speaker 6: that point I already know like we're not a match.

145
00:06:13,839 --> 00:06:15,520
Speaker 6: This guy couldn't get out by his felt so he's

146
00:06:15,520 --> 00:06:16,720
Speaker 6: not for me anyway.

147
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,000
Speaker 4: Yeah, this is confusing then.

148
00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:21,440
Speaker 6: Well so wait, so then we leave and I'm like, okay,

149
00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:24,359
Speaker 6: can you just take me home? And he goes, no,

150
00:06:24,560 --> 00:06:25,960
Speaker 6: why don't you go uber yourself home?

151
00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:26,320
Speaker 4: Yeah?

152
00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:29,760
Speaker 6: I mean yeah, And I was like, that's my kind

153
00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:32,800
Speaker 6: of man. So that once, once he wanted me to

154
00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,480
Speaker 6: take my own Uber and driving home, I was like,

155
00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:37,359
Speaker 6: that's the alpha man I'm looking for.

156
00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,640
Speaker 4: He stood up for himself. He finally took a stand against.

157
00:06:42,040 --> 00:06:44,840
Speaker 1: This is so strange to me because it's like you

158
00:06:44,880 --> 00:06:48,360
Speaker 1: push him to a brink and then he finally pushes back.

159
00:06:48,400 --> 00:06:50,880
Speaker 2: And that's the type of relationship you're looking for.

160
00:06:51,200 --> 00:06:54,200
Speaker 4: On the first date, he was able to muster that energy.

161
00:06:54,240 --> 00:06:56,640
Speaker 6: You know, why, why waste the time? Let's see exactly

162
00:06:56,680 --> 00:06:58,720
Speaker 6: how we click and like, now I know he's the

163
00:06:58,800 --> 00:06:59,640
Speaker 6: kind of guy I want.

164
00:07:00,320 --> 00:07:04,640
Speaker 2: Wow, this is going to be an interesting like.

165
00:07:04,920 --> 00:07:08,400
Speaker 1: I mean, we obviously know why he's not calling you back, right,

166
00:07:12,560 --> 00:07:13,080
Speaker 1: I mean we.

167
00:07:13,080 --> 00:07:15,360
Speaker 4: Think we know why, but we won't know until we

168
00:07:15,440 --> 00:07:18,880
Speaker 4: call this alpha directly and ask him what's going on

169
00:07:18,960 --> 00:07:20,000
Speaker 4: between you and Mallory.

170
00:07:20,120 --> 00:07:21,960
Speaker 1: Oh man, is it going to be like Alpha VI

171
00:07:22,080 --> 00:07:24,040
Speaker 1: Alpha Jeff with you and him on the phone.

172
00:07:24,160 --> 00:07:25,160
Speaker 2: Is it going to be really hard?

173
00:07:25,240 --> 00:07:28,840
Speaker 4: I mean, I think we just let this alpha shine first.

174
00:07:29,520 --> 00:07:30,160
Speaker 2: Alpha.

175
00:07:30,480 --> 00:07:33,119
Speaker 4: You'll be able to tell when the two alphas square

176
00:07:33,200 --> 00:07:35,560
Speaker 4: off because the dominant album you.

177
00:07:35,720 --> 00:07:38,240
Speaker 2: Actually hearing their voice who has more chest terror.

178
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:41,400
Speaker 4: Be careful, Mallory, you might get a little bit too

179
00:07:41,400 --> 00:07:45,160
Speaker 4: turned on when we come back later. Ultra Alpha Second

180
00:07:45,240 --> 00:07:50,360
Speaker 4: date update coming up right after this second date update.

181
00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:53,920
Speaker 4: If you're just joining us for the second date update.

182
00:07:54,120 --> 00:07:58,280
Speaker 4: Mallory knows what she wants. She wants to date a

183
00:07:58,440 --> 00:08:03,000
Speaker 4: real man who can pass her alpha test and prove

184
00:08:03,480 --> 00:08:06,800
Speaker 4: he deserves to go out with her. And her test

185
00:08:06,880 --> 00:08:10,000
Speaker 4: for John recently was to lock him in the closet

186
00:08:10,040 --> 00:08:13,000
Speaker 4: of an escape room and told him a true alpha

187
00:08:13,040 --> 00:08:15,120
Speaker 4: could figure out a way to get out of this

188
00:08:15,360 --> 00:08:16,120
Speaker 4: all on his own.

189
00:08:16,880 --> 00:08:18,480
Speaker 1: I think you should have just dropped him in the

190
00:08:18,480 --> 00:08:20,880
Speaker 1: middle of the woods, fifty miles away and just seeing

191
00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:22,120
Speaker 1: if he found his way back to you.

192
00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,400
Speaker 4: I'll be back in a week. That's a good option

193
00:08:24,520 --> 00:08:29,280
Speaker 4: for day two coming up. Because the thing is John

194
00:08:29,360 --> 00:08:31,880
Speaker 4: did not figure out a way out of that closet.

195
00:08:31,920 --> 00:08:34,559
Speaker 4: He mostly begged and complained the entire.

196
00:08:34,320 --> 00:08:36,280
Speaker 2: Time, did not find the challenge fun.

197
00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:40,160
Speaker 4: But his shining moment came after the escape room when

198
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,400
Speaker 4: she said, Hey, John, why don't you give me a

199
00:08:42,480 --> 00:08:45,400
Speaker 4: ride home? And he said, no, you get newber Yeah

200
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:49,680
Speaker 4: alpha move, I mean not exactly like that. Yeah, well

201
00:08:49,920 --> 00:08:53,240
Speaker 4: something along those lines. It was enough to convince her, Oh,

202
00:08:53,320 --> 00:08:55,480
Speaker 4: he really is able to stand up for himself, and

203
00:08:55,520 --> 00:08:57,040
Speaker 4: now she wants us to call him.

204
00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,120
Speaker 2: That's what she liked.

205
00:08:58,160 --> 00:08:59,520
Speaker 4: It actually like turned her on.

206
00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,160
Speaker 2: I think all of this is going to be shocking

207
00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:02,600
Speaker 2: to him.

208
00:09:02,720 --> 00:09:05,240
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I would personally feel like if I

209
00:09:05,280 --> 00:09:07,320
Speaker 1: got locked in the closet, it would be because they

210
00:09:07,320 --> 00:09:08,280
Speaker 1: didn't like Mallory.

211
00:09:08,320 --> 00:09:10,559
Speaker 4: Do you think that John is going to be totally

212
00:09:10,600 --> 00:09:12,720
Speaker 4: shocked when we're reaching out to him right here?

213
00:09:13,600 --> 00:09:16,360
Speaker 6: I mean, I get it. I mean, he's definitely not

214
00:09:16,640 --> 00:09:19,640
Speaker 6: happy with me right now after everything that happened. But

215
00:09:19,679 --> 00:09:22,440
Speaker 6: what I didn't get to tell him is that he

216
00:09:22,679 --> 00:09:25,600
Speaker 6: did pass the alpha test. Is not in the way

217
00:09:25,640 --> 00:09:27,400
Speaker 6: that I initially intended.

218
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:30,439
Speaker 2: No, did he know that an alpha test was happening.

219
00:09:30,559 --> 00:09:32,560
Speaker 4: Yeah, he may have had no clue that he was

220
00:09:32,600 --> 00:09:35,160
Speaker 4: being tested at any point. He just thought you were

221
00:09:35,200 --> 00:09:36,199
Speaker 4: being you crazy.

222
00:09:36,160 --> 00:09:36,960
Speaker 2: This would be good news.

223
00:09:37,520 --> 00:09:37,760
Speaker 5: Yeah.

224
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:40,240
Speaker 6: Look at this point, I've only seen him do that

225
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:42,360
Speaker 6: one thing, and that one thing was great, But like,

226
00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,640
Speaker 6: there's a lot more to show, so he's truly alpha material.

227
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:50,360
Speaker 4: There's more tests, Okay, yeah, yes, yeah, And this call

228
00:09:50,440 --> 00:09:52,120
Speaker 4: is going to be a total curveball to him too,

229
00:09:52,200 --> 00:09:54,800
Speaker 4: So let's see how he handles it in an alpha manner.

230
00:09:54,800 --> 00:09:56,160
Speaker 5: Hopefully, yeah, hopefully.

231
00:09:55,880 --> 00:09:58,360
Speaker 2: Up on us. She is just going to be so excited.

232
00:09:58,559 --> 00:10:05,400
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm gonna be excited too. If that happens. Already,

233
00:10:05,400 --> 00:10:07,600
Speaker 4: here we go. I'm gonna John's number. Let's see if

234
00:10:07,600 --> 00:10:18,560
Speaker 4: he answers. Hello, Hey, is this is this John? Yes?

235
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:18,920
Speaker 5: It is.

236
00:10:24,120 --> 00:10:28,720
Speaker 4: This isn't what I was expecting. Hey, Man, you're yeah,

237
00:10:28,840 --> 00:10:33,240
Speaker 4: Man's just excuse me, I'm talking. This is a show.

238
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:35,480
Speaker 4: We're called Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning. You're on

239
00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:36,080
Speaker 4: it right now.

240
00:10:39,000 --> 00:10:41,360
Speaker 5: Okay, why that's a great question, John.

241
00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,319
Speaker 4: Yeah. The reason is because we do this segment it's

242
00:10:44,320 --> 00:10:47,880
Speaker 4: called a second Date Update, where we try to help

243
00:10:47,960 --> 00:10:50,440
Speaker 4: listeners get in touch with people again after they've gone

244
00:10:50,480 --> 00:10:52,920
Speaker 4: out on one date and are getting a follow up

245
00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:55,200
Speaker 4: for a second mm hmm.

246
00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,400
Speaker 5: Okay, yeah, yeah, I understand.

247
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:04,560
Speaker 4: Okay, So recently you may or may not remember this,

248
00:11:04,679 --> 00:11:07,120
Speaker 4: but you went out with a woman named Mallory.

249
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:11,240
Speaker 5: Oh yeah I did.

250
00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:12,920
Speaker 4: Okay.

251
00:11:13,200 --> 00:11:15,600
Speaker 2: I can't wait to hear how this date went for you.

252
00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,680
Speaker 4: Because we are bold why you aren't calling her back?

253
00:11:18,960 --> 00:11:20,319
Speaker 4: And that was their first hangout?

254
00:11:20,480 --> 00:11:22,320
Speaker 2: A lot of schasm in Jeff's voice.

255
00:11:22,280 --> 00:11:23,120
Speaker 4: So hold on you.

256
00:11:23,440 --> 00:11:25,520
Speaker 5: You don't know anything that happened.

257
00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:28,880
Speaker 4: We know a few things, you know. I don't want

258
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,320
Speaker 4: to give everything away, but I understand it's probably not

259
00:11:32,480 --> 00:11:36,200
Speaker 4: your typical first date. That you've gone on, you know.

260
00:11:36,120 --> 00:11:38,080
Speaker 5: Getting locked in a closet not at all?

261
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:42,920
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean that's kind of the whole thing, right, Yeah, that.

262
00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:46,680
Speaker 5: Was not pleasant at all. I experienced the roller coaster

263
00:11:46,760 --> 00:11:48,880
Speaker 5: of emotions during the lock in.

264
00:11:49,720 --> 00:11:52,400
Speaker 2: At what point did you realize she wasn't joking?

265
00:11:53,880 --> 00:11:56,520
Speaker 5: Probably after the third time she banged on the door

266
00:11:56,559 --> 00:11:58,720
Speaker 5: and said, hey, dummy, are you you figured it out yet?

267
00:11:58,920 --> 00:12:02,160
Speaker 4: Who these words?

268
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:03,959
Speaker 5: I'm pretty sure.

269
00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:04,840
Speaker 2: That's about what she said.

270
00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:09,480
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, would you say that this whole locking in

271
00:12:09,480 --> 00:12:11,480
Speaker 4: the closet thing, that was the main reason that you're

272
00:12:11,520 --> 00:12:12,320
Speaker 4: not calling her back?

273
00:12:12,960 --> 00:12:15,400
Speaker 5: I mean yeah, I mean we argued about it. I

274
00:12:15,520 --> 00:12:18,040
Speaker 5: just I honestly, I just wanted to get the heck

275
00:12:18,120 --> 00:12:18,640
Speaker 5: out of there.

276
00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:21,360
Speaker 4: I think we all can understand why you would feel

277
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:24,000
Speaker 4: that way. But I will say, on the other side

278
00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:27,640
Speaker 4: of it, sometimes when two people spark like that, that

279
00:12:27,679 --> 00:12:29,320
Speaker 4: could be a sign of a good thing.

280
00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:29,680
Speaker 6: Wow.

281
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:34,440
Speaker 5: I mean, I don't know if sparks the word yeah, right, passion.

282
00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:38,559
Speaker 1: Okay, at any point did you want to kiss her?

283
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:40,480
Speaker 2: That's I think what Jeff is getting at.

284
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:43,720
Speaker 5: I mean I might have thought about it in the beginning, Yeah,

285
00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,240
Speaker 5: but after I heard that the third or fourth. Did

286
00:12:47,240 --> 00:12:49,120
Speaker 5: you figure it out yet? I was done.

287
00:12:49,520 --> 00:12:52,640
Speaker 2: Yeah. I don't think anyone blames you for that.

288
00:12:52,840 --> 00:12:55,280
Speaker 4: Look, not every woman is going to challenge you like

289
00:12:55,360 --> 00:12:58,240
Speaker 4: this on a first date. Some women just sip wine.

290
00:12:58,280 --> 00:13:01,200
Speaker 4: They want to be showered and compliment. And this woman

291
00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:03,760
Speaker 4: is pushing you to be the greatest man you can be.

292
00:13:04,080 --> 00:13:06,120
Speaker 2: I don't know that you're hearing him, Jeff.

293
00:13:06,520 --> 00:13:07,960
Speaker 5: Yeah, I don't think he is there.

294
00:13:08,400 --> 00:13:12,160
Speaker 4: There is a tiger inside of you waiting to be unleashed,

295
00:13:13,040 --> 00:13:15,280
Speaker 4: and I'd like to open the cage right now as

296
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,360
Speaker 4: we tell you that Mallory is on the other line

297
00:13:17,400 --> 00:13:23,640
Speaker 4: wanting to talk to you. No, yeah, no, she is, oh.

298
00:13:23,520 --> 00:13:26,080
Speaker 2: My no, locked on the other phone line.

299
00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,600
Speaker 5: Right well, I mean she deserves to be locked somewhere.

300
00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:31,400
Speaker 4: Mallory.

301
00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:34,840
Speaker 5: You're out, Hi, John, Hi?

302
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:37,800
Speaker 6: Well, first of all, I just I want you to

303
00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:40,400
Speaker 6: know I really appreciate that you took the call and

304
00:13:40,400 --> 00:13:41,319
Speaker 6: that you're here to talk.

305
00:13:41,800 --> 00:13:43,880
Speaker 5: This is almost like getting locked in the closet. I

306
00:13:43,920 --> 00:13:45,040
Speaker 5: was forced to they called me.

307
00:13:45,600 --> 00:13:46,920
Speaker 2: Yeah.

308
00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:50,720
Speaker 6: Okay, Well listen, John. That whole thing was to kind

309
00:13:50,720 --> 00:13:52,400
Speaker 6: of just see, you know, if we click and see

310
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,520
Speaker 6: what you're made of and see if you have that

311
00:13:55,640 --> 00:13:59,000
Speaker 6: kind of help energy that I'm really looking for a man.

312
00:13:59,080 --> 00:14:04,240
Speaker 6: And when you told me to go get an uber,

313
00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,280
Speaker 6: when you wouldn't drive me home, that was the biggest

314
00:14:08,360 --> 00:14:12,280
Speaker 6: turn on the way your voice that was so serious,

315
00:14:12,640 --> 00:14:18,560
Speaker 6: you like and at that moment, seriously, John, I would

316
00:14:18,640 --> 00:14:20,560
Speaker 6: have done anything for.

317
00:14:20,600 --> 00:14:25,080
Speaker 5: You to get in an uber and me walking away

318
00:14:25,120 --> 00:14:28,840
Speaker 5: turned you on. You are very sick lady. Oh did you.

319
00:14:28,920 --> 00:14:30,760
Speaker 6: Call me very sick? John? Yes?

320
00:14:31,400 --> 00:14:33,680
Speaker 4: Yeah, he did, and he said it with that deep,

321
00:14:33,760 --> 00:14:34,640
Speaker 4: husky voice of his.

322
00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:38,480
Speaker 6: You know what, that's exactly what a non alpha would say.

323
00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:43,240
Speaker 6: That's all sigma right there. You're follower. You don't even

324
00:14:43,400 --> 00:14:47,680
Speaker 6: own this. Okay, Yeah, you.

325
00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,840
Speaker 2: Don't like to be bad mouthed. Is that what you're saying?

326
00:14:51,200 --> 00:14:53,280
Speaker 6: You're gonna bad mouth me? You can do a little

327
00:14:53,320 --> 00:14:56,800
Speaker 6: bit more than sick. That was sick. That's that's no sigma.

328
00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:57,840
Speaker 6: You can't even come up with.

329
00:14:57,880 --> 00:15:01,920
Speaker 4: More than natural challenge issue, John, go harder? Okay.

330
00:15:02,000 --> 00:15:07,480
Speaker 5: So so if it's sick, isn't the right word then demented? Twisted? Maybe?

331
00:15:07,760 --> 00:15:09,440
Speaker 5: I don't know, but this is you know what, you

332
00:15:09,920 --> 00:15:12,000
Speaker 5: know what? And if you don't like me, you don't

333
00:15:12,040 --> 00:15:13,360
Speaker 5: have to Okay.

334
00:15:13,200 --> 00:15:14,840
Speaker 6: No, I don't and you know what, John, I should

335
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:16,480
Speaker 6: have trusted my instincts when you couldn't get out of

336
00:15:16,520 --> 00:15:18,360
Speaker 6: that closet, because you know what else you don't know?

337
00:15:19,120 --> 00:15:20,760
Speaker 6: I hooked up with the escape room guy.

338
00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:23,800
Speaker 2: Okay, what do you mean when?

339
00:15:24,240 --> 00:15:24,480
Speaker 4: Yes?

340
00:15:25,000 --> 00:15:26,840
Speaker 2: When is exactly the right question.

341
00:15:27,480 --> 00:15:29,480
Speaker 6: When John left me there to get my own uber,

342
00:15:29,920 --> 00:15:32,440
Speaker 6: that guy came out, and that guy took advantage of

343
00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,840
Speaker 6: the situation. And he is the kind of alpha I

344
00:15:34,880 --> 00:15:35,400
Speaker 6: was looking for.

345
00:15:35,520 --> 00:15:38,520
Speaker 4: Oh after, he saw you.

346
00:15:38,480 --> 00:15:41,400
Speaker 3: Like a guy in a closet and liked it.

347
00:15:41,640 --> 00:15:45,200
Speaker 6: Apparently, So there are men that are alphas actually out there,

348
00:15:45,200 --> 00:15:45,920
Speaker 6: and that's the truth.

349
00:15:46,240 --> 00:15:49,080
Speaker 1: Like y the twenty something working part time is the

350
00:15:49,240 --> 00:15:51,800
Speaker 1: escape room is the alpha that you're looking for?

351
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:54,800
Speaker 5: Yeah, that's the alpha she's looking That's the alpha she deserves.

352
00:15:55,280 --> 00:15:57,200
Speaker 4: Did you just did you just do this whole thing

353
00:15:57,240 --> 00:15:59,040
Speaker 4: to use us so you could tell him that?

354
00:15:59,480 --> 00:16:01,520
Speaker 6: No? I mean I would give that one more shot

355
00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:03,440
Speaker 6: to truly be an alpha, but you just don't have

356
00:16:03,520 --> 00:16:03,840
Speaker 6: it in you.

357
00:16:04,680 --> 00:16:05,480
Speaker 4: This is great.

358
00:16:05,520 --> 00:16:08,400
Speaker 2: I don't think that he's upset by that. Mallory.

359
00:16:08,560 --> 00:16:11,240
Speaker 6: Of course he's not, because he's not an alpha. So

360
00:16:11,280 --> 00:16:13,640
Speaker 6: he troubles it in and he doesn't stick up for

361
00:16:13,680 --> 00:16:16,400
Speaker 6: anything not strong buddy.

362
00:16:16,680 --> 00:16:19,080
Speaker 5: Okay, all right, well, you know, like I said, this

363
00:16:19,160 --> 00:16:21,000
Speaker 5: is me and you don't do it.

364
00:16:24,120 --> 00:16:26,240
Speaker 2: Again. You know.

365
00:16:26,360 --> 00:16:29,760
Speaker 5: You know what, lady, I really don't appreciate you labeling

366
00:16:29,800 --> 00:16:31,640
Speaker 5: me because I am who I am?

367
00:16:32,200 --> 00:16:35,040
Speaker 6: Yeah, John, are you are you telling me what to

368
00:16:35,080 --> 00:16:37,480
Speaker 6: think right now? Because that actually that that's kind of

369
00:16:37,480 --> 00:16:38,080
Speaker 6: doing it for me.

370
00:16:39,600 --> 00:16:40,520
Speaker 4: Okay, tell me what.

371
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:44,080
Speaker 2: The thing is and I will off the right. Ye,

372
00:16:44,880 --> 00:16:45,920
Speaker 2: get me off the right.

373
00:16:46,000 --> 00:16:46,880
Speaker 4: Hold on, I'm staying on.

374
00:16:47,120 --> 00:16:49,280
Speaker 5: Just can John get off the right as well?

375
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:52,600
Speaker 4: We can't get off until I ask you, John, would

376
00:16:52,640 --> 00:16:54,880
Speaker 4: you like to go out on one more date with Mallory?

377
00:16:55,280 --> 00:17:00,560
Speaker 4: And we would pay for absolutely not. It's a true

378
00:17:00,680 --> 00:17:03,240
Speaker 4: alpha move to turn down three gifts.

379
00:17:02,920 --> 00:17:06,399
Speaker 6: Like that final test said and done. Yep, So not

380
00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:08,600
Speaker 6: on alpha total that's coming or whatever.

381
00:17:08,640 --> 00:17:11,560
Speaker 2: Okay, I don't know.

382
00:17:11,920 --> 00:17:17,000
Speaker 1: I'm stop asking questions, but just.

383
00:17:16,920 --> 00:17:19,280
Speaker 6: Set him up. We just gave him the freaking ball

384
00:17:19,359 --> 00:17:21,000
Speaker 6: to go run with it and he just dropped it

385
00:17:21,040 --> 00:17:21,520
Speaker 6: once again.

386
00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:23,840
Speaker 1: I don't know.

387
00:17:24,200 --> 00:17:25,080
Speaker 2: I don't want to be on this.

388
00:17:26,040 --> 00:17:28,600
Speaker 4: I guess now that only leaves one alpha in the

389
00:17:28,680 --> 00:17:30,119
Speaker 4: room as there always was.

390
00:17:30,240 --> 00:17:31,480
Speaker 2: Jeff, how are you talking about me?

391
00:17:35,280 --> 00:17:38,720
Speaker 4: I was like risk action on the ground really didn't

392
00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:43,159
Speaker 4: have Jeffrey in the morning. Some people just aren't a

393
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:46,720
Speaker 4: good match. Even when you try over and over and

394
00:17:46,760 --> 00:17:49,480
Speaker 4: over to force it, it just doesn't work out.

395
00:17:49,640 --> 00:17:51,280
Speaker 2: That is a big lesson for you, Jeff.

396
00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:51,800
Speaker 5: Yeah.

397
00:17:51,880 --> 00:17:53,800
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, it's a big one.

398
00:17:54,359 --> 00:17:56,280
Speaker 4: You don't got to learn it at some point. Not yet.

399
00:17:56,600 --> 00:17:59,640
Speaker 2: Is there a man that isn't frightened of her though?

400
00:18:00,000 --> 00:18:03,399
Speaker 1: Well? Escape room guy, Yeah, it worked out for him

401
00:18:03,560 --> 00:18:04,679
Speaker 1: because he knew where the key was.

402
00:18:04,880 --> 00:18:08,080
Speaker 4: Yeah, Walker in the closet too. Yeah. But a lot

403
00:18:08,119 --> 00:18:09,920
Speaker 4: of people are texting in at seven eighty five nine,

404
00:18:09,960 --> 00:18:12,439
Speaker 4: who's saying she didn't really want to go out with

405
00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:14,560
Speaker 4: him at all. She only did this to get revenge

406
00:18:14,600 --> 00:18:17,160
Speaker 4: and brag about making out with a scape room guy.

407
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:19,199
Speaker 4: Which is that even a brag?

408
00:18:19,359 --> 00:18:20,119
Speaker 2: I don't know.

409
00:18:20,320 --> 00:18:21,520
Speaker 4: I think it makes her look.

410
00:18:21,440 --> 00:18:21,880
Speaker 5: Kind of bad.

411
00:18:22,480 --> 00:18:25,119
Speaker 4: I've made out with plenty of Escape Room employees, and

412
00:18:25,240 --> 00:18:26,800
Speaker 4: usually they aren't lookers.

413
00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,359
Speaker 2: Oh that was kind of an insult.

414
00:18:29,359 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 4: Now there's a reason they choose to work in dimly

415
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:32,800
Speaker 4: lit basements.

416
00:18:33,960 --> 00:18:36,439
Speaker 1: The front desk is very lip usually not in an

417
00:18:36,480 --> 00:18:37,400
Speaker 1: actual basement.

418
00:18:37,480 --> 00:18:39,440
Speaker 2: Jeff, who's basement? Where are you going?

419
00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,879
Speaker 4: He's a room? Wait, I meet him on Craigslist and

420
00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:43,879
Speaker 4: they say I have an escape room, because that's not

421
00:18:43,880 --> 00:18:45,600
Speaker 4: how it works. Go to people's houses.

422
00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:47,919
Speaker 2: Yeah, you got to figure it out. Keep doing that.

423
00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:50,640
Speaker 4: I'm doing it right. And if you enjoy basement stuff,
