Speaker 1: Second date of to Day. We talk about weird dating
Speaker 1: trends a lot on our show, and I think it's
Speaker 1: cool when we hear from listeners who actually try them. Yeah. Like,
Speaker 1: remember a little while back, we had a couple on
Speaker 1: this segment that did the Target Date night challenge. Oh yeah,
Speaker 1: I was supposed to do that with my husband. I
Speaker 1: never got around to her. Yeah. That's where you buy
Speaker 1: random stuff from Target and then you have to try
Speaker 1: and figure out how to make a date out of
Speaker 1: those items. It's really yeah, except for the diaper's part
Speaker 1: in that situation, creative? Or what about the hundred dudes
Speaker 1: in a hundred hours challenge? Oh I don't. I'm ashamed
Speaker 1: to admit I only made it to seventy nine. Oh
Speaker 1: wow before my body gave out. So really disappointed in
Speaker 1: myself on that one. But one of our listeners says
Speaker 1: he tried a date night challenge off the internet recently
Speaker 1: and apparently it went well, but he would like some
Speaker 1: help from us today. His name's Rick. Rick. How many
Speaker 1: dudes did you get through? Did you beat me? No? No?
Speaker 1: No dudes, man? No? Oh this was it was a
Speaker 1: different challenge then, what made you? I'm already going through
Speaker 1: it and you guys are killing me. But before we
Speaker 1: get to the internet challenge, tell us about the woman
Speaker 1: that you want us to call. What's her name? How'd
Speaker 1: you meet her? Her name is Bella. I met her
Speaker 1: online and this girl was beautiful at least you know,
Speaker 1: her pictures were that's great. Bella does mean beautiful too, Yeah,
Speaker 1: it does. I mean, here's the thing when you saw her?
Speaker 1: What made you want to do an internet challenge thing? Well,
Speaker 1: the funny thing was we were trying to figure out
Speaker 1: a first date, and through the process I was like, wow,
Speaker 1: this is gonna be awesome because we both thought all
Speaker 1: of the ideas we had for first dates were like crazy,
Speaker 1: cliche and stupid. Yeah, okay, so she found this thing
Speaker 1: and she said at me a link forward. It was
Speaker 1: like some photo shoot blind date thing. Oh so it's
Speaker 1: actually her idea. Yeah, it was totally her idea. It's
Speaker 1: like people who don't know each other, they can have
Speaker 1: a photoshoot of their first date done and then that way,
Speaker 1: like after the date, you can look back at it,
Speaker 1: like you can like see if the chemistry was there
Speaker 1: or not, and then if it was a really cool
Speaker 1: date and like the relationship leads to something. You have
Speaker 1: this really amazing keepsake of your first date. Okay, the
Speaker 1: whole photo there's a photographer for a time. There's a
Speaker 1: lot of hope in that idea. Yeah, so that so
Speaker 1: doing the photo shoot is the actual date right exactly?
Speaker 1: Oh my god, I don't know, man, I get so
Speaker 1: uncomfortable in photo shoot. It's like, yeah, I think it'd
Speaker 1: be fine. I know you love being in front of
Speaker 1: the camera, but not everybody does. It sounds very unique,
Speaker 1: I will say that. So how did it go? I
Speaker 1: thought it was going to be awkward. She found a photographer.
Speaker 1: I went ahead and booked it, and we did this
Speaker 1: shoot in the city, and I was crazy nervous. But
Speaker 1: like when I saw her, she came out in this
Speaker 1: stunning dress, her hair amazing, Like, I mean, she was beautiful.
Speaker 1: Like I cannot emphasize that enough. I gotta say genius
Speaker 1: on her part, because it is such a good reason
Speaker 1: to make sure that you look like perfect for your date.
Speaker 1: You can wear whatever you want, whatever looks best on you,
Speaker 1: and be like, well, that's a photo shoot. Yeah, whatever,
Speaker 1: what did you wear? I wore a nice suit with
Speaker 1: a light purple shirt with a black tie. Yeah, okay,
Speaker 1: so we were fancy. This was all right. So how
Speaker 1: was the actual chemistry between you and Bella? I found
Speaker 1: it to be amazing, Like, you know, as the date
Speaker 1: went on, we both really kind of relaxed, and I
Speaker 1: mean there was a moment where like we forgot the
Speaker 1: photographer was there and we kissed for the first time.
Speaker 1: You got your first kiss on camera. I did, oh cool.
Speaker 1: See now you girls think it's cute. I never doubted it.
Speaker 1: I just like, it's hard for me to be in
Speaker 1: front of the camera like that. But have you seen
Speaker 1: the photos? Yeah? Yeah, Well I have the photos, and
Speaker 1: that's kind of the problem that I have. She's ghosted
Speaker 1: me ever since that day. And we were supposed to
Speaker 1: split the photographer and I have all the pictures, and
Speaker 1: I have the bill that I had like crazy expensive.
Speaker 1: I mean she outright agreed to split that with you.
Speaker 1: When I was buying them online, she was like, yeah,
Speaker 1: pay for it and or half of it, Like we
Speaker 1: were going to split it. Okay, did you guys do
Speaker 1: anything else? You go grab drinks or anything? Afterwards? Well,
Speaker 1: we went and we had like there was the street
Speaker 1: vendors outside or something. Yeah, we like eating each other bacon,
Speaker 1: rat dogs and stuff. I thought that looks I can't
Speaker 1: feed each other falafels. Where do you find this photographer? Okay,
Speaker 1: so you said that you've been trying to text her
Speaker 1: and she's not answering at all. Yeah, she's totally ghosted her. Wait,
Speaker 1: have you like texted her like a sample of the
Speaker 1: photos because she hasn't even seen him? Right, Yeah, no,
Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do that. Like, she's got to pay
Speaker 1: for him if she wants to see him, like, okay,
Speaker 1: a lot of money. Yeah, you're right. All right, Well
Speaker 1: I feel for you, man, Let's play a song. We'll
Speaker 1: come back. We'll call Bella for you, and we're trying
Speaker 1: to get your second date update. All right, thank you guys.
Speaker 1: All right second d oh man, Last time I kissed
Speaker 1: a stranger on camera, I was dressed as a pizza boy, really,
Speaker 1: and they paid me. I'm still getting residuals from that.
Speaker 1: I'm not sure. It's just a fun time. Yeah. One
Speaker 1: of our listeners Rick, he kissed his date on camera
Speaker 1: because they hired a professional photographer and did a photo
Speaker 1: shoot as their first date. Apparently it's part of a
Speaker 1: new internet dating challenge where you hire a professional photographer
Speaker 1: and you use that as your date activity. So they
Speaker 1: took some pictures together around the city, had a great time.
Speaker 1: But afterwards, not only is she ignoring his text, she
Speaker 1: also left him with the bill. Yeah. I was gonna say,
Speaker 1: this is kind of a rich person trend. Yeah. Yeah,
Speaker 1: like the target thing was more accessible to everybody when
Speaker 1: it came to dating idea. Absolutely. Now, Rick, you said
Speaker 1: you paid a lot of money. You didn't say the
Speaker 1: exact amount. You said it was expensive. Can you give
Speaker 1: us a ballpark? Dude? It was well north five hundred dollars. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: I was gonna gets eight hundred yeah, yeah, yeah. I
Speaker 1: mean the thing is, she must have thought you were
Speaker 1: cute because it was her idea to hire the photographer
Speaker 1: even though you paid for it. But after the photo shoot,
Speaker 1: now she's not calling back. I don't know. Maybe the
Speaker 1: kiss wasn't good, Maybe your clothes weren't fancy enough. Loo,
Speaker 1: I have pictures, I have roof. Okay. That's what makes
Speaker 1: it so frustrating because it's like the financial thing, Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's one thing, But the relationship part of it, that's
Speaker 1: that's the part that's really throwing me off. So if
Speaker 1: she agrees for a second day, or you're going to
Speaker 1: still hold her to the bill. Yeah, okay, okay, alright,
Speaker 1: it's gonna be dude. I honestly think you should suck
Speaker 1: it up. If she's like, look, I do a lot
Speaker 1: of funny suck it up. Is exactly what they said
Speaker 1: when I was the pizza boy. That's so weird. What
Speaker 1: a flashback. Okay, anyway, let's just make this phone called
Speaker 1: it Bella and get to the bottom of it. Is
Speaker 1: you ready to do this? Yeah? All right, here we go.
Speaker 1: I'm down the number. Now. Hello, Hi? Is this Bella? Yeah, Bella?
Speaker 1: Did you perhaps order a large pizza du extre meat?
Speaker 1: I'm sorry? Whoa? I'm sorry? How did that? So? It
Speaker 1: was good? Okay, I'm sorry, Bella. M Hi, Sorry I
Speaker 1: got sidetracked. My name's Jeffrey from the radio show Broken
Speaker 1: Jeffrey in the Morning. How are you doing? I'm okay.
Speaker 1: What's going on? We're doing a segment from our show
Speaker 1: called the Second Date Update. We're reaching out to you
Speaker 1: because one of our listeners has given us your number.
Speaker 1: They're trying to get a hold of you. His name
Speaker 1: is Rick. I know who you're referring to. Um. Okay,
Speaker 1: I don't really want to talk about that right now.
Speaker 1: Hold on, Yah, we're just looking for a short answer
Speaker 1: to help Rick figure out what's going on because he's
Speaker 1: really really confused. Rick feels like he went all out
Speaker 1: for your date. He paid a lot of money, he
Speaker 1: had a good connection with you, and now he feels
Speaker 1: like he's been hung out to dry because afterwards you've
Speaker 1: completely ghosted. Yeah. Look, I really do feel bad about
Speaker 1: that things just happened. But can you give him an answer?
Speaker 1: I mean, do you have a why? Like could you
Speaker 1: imagine being in his place? Like you'd be totally confused?
Speaker 1: This guy kisses you, he is apparently attracted to you,
Speaker 1: and then nothing like just silence, Like nobody wants to
Speaker 1: be ghosted. It sucks. Yeah, Honestly, the time we had
Speaker 1: together was great and it was a lot of fun. Um.
Speaker 1: I did feel a connection with him, but things have changed.
Speaker 1: What what do you mean? I mean, are you in
Speaker 1: a relationship? Is that what you're saying? Because I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: If I went and did a full photo shoot and
Speaker 1: I looked so good like he said you did, I
Speaker 1: would definitely want to see the pictures, and you haven't
Speaker 1: even seen the pictures yet. I'm just I'm gonna sound
Speaker 1: like a terrible person if I say this. Well, it's okay,
Speaker 1: we're all terrible people. Yeah, so we won't judge it.
Speaker 1: You're a good company. Oh gosh, I actually knew the photographer.
Speaker 1: He said you. You were the one that recommended the photographers.
Speaker 1: So that makes sense? Is it? Like a friend? So
Speaker 1: he he was my ex? Ah, that's interesting. Why would
Speaker 1: you do that? I know I was missing him a lot.
Speaker 1: And oh and when I met Rick, you know, we
Speaker 1: had the idea of doing something different for a first date.
Speaker 1: And when the idea came up to do the photo shoot,
Speaker 1: my brain was just like, what better way to kind
Speaker 1: of get back at my X? And so you know,
Speaker 1: I sent Rick the link for his photography page to
Speaker 1: book him and to try to like make him jealous.
Speaker 1: Then wait, so your ex even agreed to it because
Speaker 1: you had Rick do the booking. Yes, you showed up
Speaker 1: and your X had no idea it was going to
Speaker 1: be you until you were there. Right. Oh that, Hey,
Speaker 1: we're not judging. We're terrible people too, Okay, I mean
Speaker 1: I know I told you it sounded terrible. I know.
Speaker 1: So what what did your ex boyfriend say when he
Speaker 1: saw you show up for the photo shoot. I mean
Speaker 1: he was jealous. He was definitely holding it together. But
Speaker 1: I could tell like he just was pissed. I mean,
Speaker 1: how did it never come out during the day? I
Speaker 1: mean you even kiss Rick? I know. So there was
Speaker 1: one time when like Rick actually went to the bathroom
Speaker 1: and my ex was just like, how could you do
Speaker 1: this to me? Like why are you doing this? Yeah?
Speaker 1: And I just I played dumb and I told him
Speaker 1: that I didn't know that Rick had booked him. And
Speaker 1: then I just happened to be acquaintious because I couldn't
Speaker 1: tell him. Obviously I would sound like I'm crazy. Oh
Speaker 1: you reason? So you were lying to two men at once,
Speaker 1: you know. It just it happened all so fast. I
Speaker 1: don't know it happened so fast. I mean this thing
Speaker 1: that you play shoot, that's so wait are you with
Speaker 1: your X now or what happened there? So after the date,
Speaker 1: he texted me and we talked and I mean long
Speaker 1: chat short and we're back together. Those photos going to waste.
Speaker 1: So you have seen the photos. You can just look
Speaker 1: at his computer. Yeah, yeah, I mean I actually have
Speaker 1: seen the photos. I do really look good in them,
Speaker 1: and I do love them. You've got to pay the
Speaker 1: full price. You don't get half. Now, you got to
Speaker 1: pick up the whole bit that has messed us seriously.
Speaker 1: It's really low. And the fact that you wouldn't even
Speaker 1: say anything to Rick, like not even say hey, by
Speaker 1: the way, I just can't see you anymore. I do
Speaker 1: feel bad, but I don't know. I didn't want to
Speaker 1: kind of admit to that. Well. I mean, if you
Speaker 1: could say one thing to Rick right now, what would
Speaker 1: you say? And think about it for one second, because
Speaker 1: I need to let you know, you actually get to
Speaker 1: say that Rick is on the other line listening and
Speaker 1: wants to talk to you. Wait what yea, yep, Ricky there?
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, So what did you want to say? What
Speaker 1: do you want to say? Bella, what's your one thing
Speaker 1: you're gonna say to Rick? Rick? Look, I'm so sorry
Speaker 1: that you had to hear it. I guess like this.
Speaker 1: I didn't mean for any of this to happen. I
Speaker 1: didn't know how it was gonna You know, what do
Speaker 1: you mean you didn't know this was going to happen.
Speaker 1: You plan for this to happen. You send me the
Speaker 1: lake you are ship in the head. Yeah, and not
Speaker 1: only do you not have to worry about pan half
Speaker 1: the bill, but you can tell you a little punk
Speaker 1: boyfriend that he can eat the god I don't never
Speaker 1: want to hear from you. You can go drop dead.
Speaker 1: O little too far, Gosh, I'm sensing that there's still
Speaker 1: some sort of connection between them. Wow, it's emotional, fella.
Speaker 1: You've got to understand he's angry. I mean you definitely passionate. Ye, Rick,
Speaker 1: I totally get you're angry, but like it was a
Speaker 1: first date, a photo shoot, and like I mean to
Speaker 1: wish me to drop dead for something. No it's not, No,
Speaker 1: it's not a first date. It was a manipulative play.
Speaker 1: It was nine hundred dollars, so you can make your point.
Speaker 1: Friends jealous, there was never any shot at it. So
Speaker 1: you know what, forget you forget him? I'm out? Oh da.
Speaker 1: So at this point I would like to ask Bella,
Speaker 1: will you go am I reading this right to get
Speaker 1: out on another date with Rick? And here's the great part.
Speaker 1: None of you have to pay for anything. Will pay
Speaker 1: for the day, thanks perf for a guy, but definitely no,
Speaker 1: like why not? Okay, I mean, don't do that again, Bella, Seriously,
Speaker 1: what did you learn. I mean, I'm glad that I
Speaker 1: didn't call him back, honestly, because if we were to
Speaker 1: go on a second date like the way he just
Speaker 1: blew up like that, that could have happened later in
Speaker 1: the releasing. I don't think that that's what you should
Speaker 1: have learned, Bella. I think there is a bigger, bigger
Speaker 1: lesson we could have taken it. She got a boyfriend
Speaker 1: now Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning,
