Speaker 3: reason why they're not getting a call back.
Speaker 1: I love this. I feel like it's people doing the.
Speaker 2: Work for us.
Speaker 3: Yes, you know, make us work less. Yeah, we appreciate that.
Speaker 3: And similar to a previous call we did recently, a
Speaker 3: parent was involved.
Speaker 1: What is going on? What is everyone bringing their moms
Speaker 1: and dads to date?
Speaker 3: Well, I don't know all the details. That's all I
Speaker 3: got from the email. I don't know which parent it was,
Speaker 3: what happened, how much tongue was used. Let's make sure
Speaker 3: we get all the deats from our listener, Ricky, Ricky,
Speaker 3: welcome to the show.
Speaker 4: Thanks for having me.
Speaker 1: Can we just start with your parents or their parents?
Speaker 4: Okay?
Speaker 5: I yess.
Speaker 4: They should start at the beginning.
Speaker 3: Yeah, before we get into all the hot parent talk.
Speaker 3: And I definitely do want to get there, well, said Jeff,
Speaker 3: Let's start with the girl that you met. What's her
Speaker 3: name and how did you meet her?
Speaker 4: Her name is Annette. I met her on a date
Speaker 4: and say, this is a new one my friend recommended
Speaker 4: to me. Okay, very up and coming. It's it's called
Speaker 4: it can Do Better. It's weird, but I liked it.
Speaker 1: It's can do better, can do better.
Speaker 6: Okay, I don't think I belong on that side.
Speaker 1: Yeah, wait for worse is the other? After?
Speaker 3: I go all right, what makes this app different?
Speaker 4: Well, you up to had a picture of yourself, which
Speaker 4: is pretty standard. But what you do is you also
Speaker 4: draw a picture of the person you're looking for. So
Speaker 4: you draw it, Yeah, you draw it.
Speaker 1: Do you have to be wait, do you have to
Speaker 1: be a good artist? Or are you just looking at
Speaker 1: stick figures. Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, there's lots of different types. You know, there's good ones,
Speaker 4: there's bad ones. I'd say mine was pretty in the middle.
Speaker 1: I want to see people's drawings.
Speaker 3: So you drew a picture of your ideal match, and
Speaker 3: that turned out to be in that it sounds like, and.
Speaker 6: It finds the person like in the system. That's Is
Speaker 6: that how it works?
Speaker 4: I'm not sure if that's how it works. But she
Speaker 4: reached out to me and she said that she kind
Speaker 4: of looks like the picture, and she did a little bit.
Speaker 1: Can I ask what was in the drawing?
Speaker 4: You know, it was green eyes and brown hair, and
Speaker 4: she had green eyes and brown hair.
Speaker 1: Actually, wow, that's rare.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I never see that. So you internet, I guess
Speaker 3: went out on a date. What did you do?
Speaker 4: Yes, So this is embarrassing to say, but this is
Speaker 4: where we get to the parent talk.
Speaker 3: Okay, how did the parents come into play?
Speaker 4: You know, we decided to meet at a westront and oh,
Speaker 4: I was hoping that she was going to be waiting
Speaker 4: for me inside, but she was waiting outside and she
Speaker 4: saw me get dropped off by my mom's where the mom?
Speaker 3: Okay, she was just your chaperone, Your mom didn't stick around,
Speaker 3: did she No?
Speaker 4: No, but it would have been a thing that I
Speaker 4: could tried to play off. But fortunately she also yelled
Speaker 4: out after I got the cause, good luck, sweetie.
Speaker 1: Mom. Why did your mom drive you? Yeah, because that's
Speaker 1: what matters.
Speaker 4: Look, I've just had a bit of a situation. I
Speaker 4: don't want to get too into it. But it's just temporary.
Speaker 4: It's not permanent.
Speaker 1: And you know, why do I feel suspended driver's license
Speaker 1: for some reason?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 6: This is like temporary for the last ten years.
Speaker 3: Yeah, which we all can relate to those things. By
Speaker 3: the way, don't feel ashamed.
Speaker 1: If my mom could dropped off I take the ride. Yeah,
Speaker 1: she's just too busy. Were you able to make a
Speaker 1: joke about it, because that's a great way to recover.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know, we were laughing, and she said she
Speaker 4: didn't have a problem with it. But the date only
Speaker 4: last said about an hour. And this is also a
Speaker 4: little bit weird. But I'm not really used to go
Speaker 4: out to west onst. All that much, so maybe I
Speaker 4: don't know. I was very excited and she thought that
Speaker 4: was weird.
Speaker 1: But can I ask, how did you express being excited
Speaker 1: at the restaurant?
Speaker 4: I don't know, I was just a little over enthusiastic.
Speaker 4: I guess just then they bring out to you. I
Speaker 4: just kept complimenting the service and everything. Now know I
Speaker 4: wasn't playing it cool enough.
Speaker 7: There, like, Wow, they washed their dishes for you.
Speaker 6: But you know, genuine positive energy can be charming, you know,
Speaker 6: like you were.
Speaker 2: I get it.
Speaker 1: You know, you should have seen me in sixth grade
Speaker 1: the first time we ever were able to get delivery pizzas.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, Oh it was like being a dizzyland Wow.
Speaker 2: We all greeted the guy at the door. This is
Speaker 2: not helping, I streamed. I couldn't believe that they were
Speaker 2: gonna bring it to.
Speaker 6: Us, No way.
Speaker 2: I don't know what happens when you grew up.
Speaker 3: In a little town, you know, but you're not necessarily
Speaker 3: painting the best image right here for Ricky.
Speaker 1: I don't think it's innocent and loving.
Speaker 2: You're a quiet, awkward night.
Speaker 3: It's actually as well said, did you feel like there
Speaker 3: was a connection happening between you and Annette while you
Speaker 3: were eating together?
Speaker 4: I mean, I felt one, but I don't know if
Speaker 4: it was super cold, so I mean, I think it
Speaker 4: might have just been maybe me being weird about the
Speaker 4: restaurant or my mom dropped me off, But I just
Speaker 4: want to know why she's not calling me back.
Speaker 6: And it's interesting. Mom's like, bye, honey, have fun.
Speaker 3: He's like, I am so excited to be here.
Speaker 6: It doesn't seem like she got dropped for a playdate.
Speaker 1: Wait was she there when your mom picked you up?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 3: Yeah, how did it end?
Speaker 4: Yeah? My mom was just shopping at Target nearby and
Speaker 4: picked me up.
Speaker 1: But didn't NET witness that part too.
Speaker 2: Probably here's the problem.
Speaker 1: It sounds like the middle of the day actually wasn't
Speaker 1: that bad. But how you start and end of date
Speaker 1: is probably the most important piece.
Speaker 6: Last impression.
Speaker 3: You don't want to book nd it with mom talk.
Speaker 2: I like you play it off good.
Speaker 6: But I don't know.
Speaker 1: Kirsty by saying good luck, she should have said break
Speaker 1: a leg, sweetie.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I remember.
Speaker 3: So when you said you think you know the reason? Why?
Speaker 3: Is it because the whole situation with your mom?
Speaker 4: Yeah, she said she was okay with it, but I
Speaker 4: don't know if she really was.
Speaker 1: Have you heard from her at all?
Speaker 4: Uh? No? If you can get a hold of her,
Speaker 4: that would be the first.
Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, Well let's find out when we call Annette
Speaker 3: for you and see if your mom is the person
Speaker 3: who actually blocked you from finding true love when we
Speaker 3: do happening way too often. Right now, we'll do it
Speaker 3: with your second date update right after this.
Speaker 1: Brook and Jeffrey in the morning second date updates.
Speaker 3: There is nothing like a mother's love.
Speaker 6: Well, that's true.
Speaker 3: When she helps you take your first steps, reads you
Speaker 3: doctor Seuss books at night, yeah, and drops you off
Speaker 3: for your date in her Honda Odyssey while shouting good luck, honey,
Speaker 3: mommy loves you.
Speaker 1: I think it was actually sweetie, Oh yeah.
Speaker 6: You said that. I almost asked where her car was,
Speaker 6: but I was like, I don't want to.
Speaker 3: That was what I pictured in my mind, because that's
Speaker 3: what actually happened to our listener, Ricky. His mom dropped
Speaker 3: him off and picked him up from his dinner date
Speaker 3: with Annett.
Speaker 1: Dude, if she hadn't have yelled, he could have pretended
Speaker 1: it was his Uber driver.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, for sure next time, if mom's if you're
Speaker 6: dropping your kids off.
Speaker 2: Be the Uber driver or just stay two blocks away.
Speaker 6: And walk there.
Speaker 3: You can go to your Uber drivers. Don't shout good luck,
Speaker 3: sweetie when you walk into the places you're going.
Speaker 6: That's a five star review.
Speaker 1: I really should stop selecting the silent mode.
Speaker 3: You really should. But yes, that is the reason Ricky
Speaker 3: is worried that a Nette saw it, and it could
Speaker 3: be the reason she's ghosting, right Ricky.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, okay, I mean, okay, if we get you
Speaker 1: another shot, how are you getting to the next date?
Speaker 4: I just need to understand what I did and then I.
Speaker 1: Can know the correct answer is ride share.
Speaker 3: That's the correct and Brooke might even be willing to
Speaker 3: pay for Yeah, we could cover that. We just have
Speaker 3: to get a yes from a net first, So let's
Speaker 3: dial her number. Hopefully she picks up and we can
Speaker 3: get some answers. Here we go, Hello, Hi, is this
Speaker 3: a net? Yeah, hey Annette, thanks for answering. We're a
Speaker 3: radio show on the other line here we're called Brook
Speaker 3: and Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 6: Nobody say anything. Okay, sound crazy?
Speaker 3: There really are people.
Speaker 1: I like that idea, though, one of these.
Speaker 6: Times we should.
Speaker 3: Yeah, what's happening is you're part of a segment that
Speaker 3: we're doing now. It's called the second Date Update.
Speaker 1: Welcome to it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, I know it's probably weird to getting this call,
Speaker 3: but it's not supposed to be a scary thing. We're
Speaker 3: just trying to help one of our listeners who went
Speaker 3: out on a date with you recently, a guy named Ricky.
Speaker 4: Oh seriously, Yeah.
Speaker 3: It was Ricky told us about your hangout and said
Speaker 3: he had a great time with you. Oh.
Speaker 1: He even told us about the app that you guys
Speaker 1: met on. That was kind of cool, where you like
Speaker 1: draw pictures of who you're looking for. That's interesting.
Speaker 5: This is very strange that he's like calling you about
Speaker 5: this and talking about my life.
Speaker 1: His life too.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, it's a shared life.
Speaker 7: Because well it's not true, but you should have said
Speaker 7: that he went on a date with you, and so
Speaker 7: we wanted to know some of the details about how
Speaker 7: you met and what you did when you went to
Speaker 7: the restaurant together, because he really liked you and felt
Speaker 7: a connection and wants to see you again.
Speaker 4: Why would I tell you any of this.
Speaker 1: Because you connection so decency for Ricky, Because Ricky.
Speaker 3: Sorry, but did you say that you didn't feel a connection?
Speaker 5: Correct?
Speaker 3: Is there a reason? Yeah, because we do know a
Speaker 3: little bit about what happened, but we'd like to hear
Speaker 3: your side of it.
Speaker 5: Well, I'm curious about what he told you.
Speaker 7: We know that.
Speaker 3: You met up at a restaurant and his ride was
Speaker 3: his mother.
Speaker 1: Yeah, apparently you saw because you were outside the restaurant.
Speaker 6: And he knows that's not normal.
Speaker 5: Yeah, that was a little weird.
Speaker 1: Okay, but that, oh that is not weird.
Speaker 3: Yeah, we thought that would be the main reason. In fact,
Speaker 3: he thought that.
Speaker 1: Oh there's something else that was emphatic.
Speaker 3: Would you mind sharing what else?
Speaker 4: Okay, there was a lot of clapping.
Speaker 5: Clapping, He doesn't go out that much, she said.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, he did mention he who was maybe too
Speaker 1: excited about the restaurant because he doesn't go to him
Speaker 1: very often.
Speaker 3: When was he clapping?
Speaker 4: Oh for everything, like every course that came.
Speaker 1: That's kind of cute though, Like he's excited, and I
Speaker 1: mean it's got to make the wait staff feel good,
Speaker 1: like my water be result.
Speaker 5: This is a grown man on a date, y'all.
Speaker 4: Like it wasn't the thing.
Speaker 5: He wasn't a grown man on a date?
Speaker 4: Did he tell you this part?
Speaker 5: He chooses to live his life as a kid.
Speaker 1: Wait, what what do you mean by that? Exactly what
Speaker 1: I said.
Speaker 5: That's what he told me in the restaurant. Like he
Speaker 5: has a full time, regular job, but he lives with
Speaker 5: his parents, and he's kind of like in denial about
Speaker 5: actually growing up what because he just wants to like
Speaker 5: shut things out and live as a kid because it's
Speaker 5: more simple.
Speaker 1: So he was clapping because he was acting like a child.
Speaker 3: On purpose, I believe.
Speaker 1: So. Did he order from the children's menu?
Speaker 5: No, but he got like a burger and fries so
Speaker 5: he could have you know what I mean.
Speaker 3: Like, so that's one thing to be like immature and
Speaker 3: enjoy those things, but.
Speaker 6: To actively maybe he acts like a kid, is different.
Speaker 6: I don't know where the line is he is.
Speaker 1: I mean maybe he was talking about like childlike wonder
Speaker 1: like he wants to keep that, but.
Speaker 5: Like his mom dropped him off, like she does his laundry,
Speaker 5: Like I don't That's not what I'm looking for in
Speaker 5: a partner like yo.
Speaker 4: He got out of the car.
Speaker 5: I sincerely believe he was wearing a pajama top.
Speaker 1: He definitely didn't act like a child when we talked
Speaker 1: to him, and he didn't mention any of this.
Speaker 5: Or didn't mention any of this.
Speaker 3: Well, he did tell us that he was excited. We
Speaker 3: just didn't know there was you know, happy clapping every
Speaker 3: time food came to the table.
Speaker 1: It sounded like we were talking to an adult man
Speaker 1: on the phone when we talked to him.
Speaker 5: Well, that's what I thought going into it.
Speaker 3: I mean, if you don't believe us, you can definitely
Speaker 3: hear it straight from Ricky because he's on the other
Speaker 3: line right now listening to this call like doggies clapping
Speaker 3: and waiting to speak to you.
Speaker 4: Are you serious?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Speaker 3: Ricky there.
Speaker 4: Hi. I didn't think this was such a problem for you.
Speaker 4: I thought that you like the fact that I'm happy
Speaker 4: and I try to keep a childlike but you said
Speaker 4: sense of wonder and excitement about things.
Speaker 5: But I just there's a difference between like a boyish
Speaker 5: energy and a being in denial about being a grown up.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I know, I'm a glown up. I have a job.
Speaker 4: You said that, I'm an accountant.
Speaker 1: You're an accountant. You're a child accountant.
Speaker 3: But wait, you told her Ricky, like I choose to
Speaker 3: live my life like a child. She said, those were
Speaker 3: your words.
Speaker 1: Maybe she misunderstood what you were saying, Like, maybe re
Speaker 1: explain it so she gets it.
Speaker 4: Look, I understand I'm fully glown I'm not in denial
Speaker 4: about that. It's just that being an adult sucks. Everybody
Speaker 4: hates it. And yeah, I have the opportunity to just
Speaker 4: not pay when not pay mortgage And.
Speaker 1: That makes it sound more like you're free loaded your parents. No,
Speaker 1: what are you.
Speaker 5: Working for then?
Speaker 4: Like I save money for things that I like, you know,
Speaker 4: like big lego sets or.
Speaker 2: Legos speak to adults too. Yes, that's probably not the best.
Speaker 1: Example of what you spend your money on right now,
Speaker 1: but it's not impressive.
Speaker 6: To be like, this is a thousand dollars set.
Speaker 5: Still now if you don't have a real house to
Speaker 5: put it in.
Speaker 3: But financial planning is financial planning, and that's an adult
Speaker 3: skill set.
Speaker 1: True.
Speaker 4: I told you that this is just temporary and that
Speaker 4: one day I will get my own place and I'll
Speaker 4: be able to afford it, because this whole time, I've
Speaker 4: been choosing to live like a child. And it's because
Speaker 4: people are so stressed out, people are so upset, and
Speaker 4: I'm a happy person and I choose to be that's good.
Speaker 3: I have a hard time arguing with the log Yeah.
Speaker 2: You're right, buddy, Ricky, you could be happy and still
Speaker 2: be a man.
Speaker 1: You need to prove to her that you're a man
Speaker 1: to get another chance.
Speaker 3: Brookie's happy. Why are you trying to take away happy children?
Speaker 3: Come on, it's not your kids, Brooks.
Speaker 4: Look, just because society tells you you need to live
Speaker 4: a certain way doesn't mean you have to. Since I
Speaker 4: has been wrong about a lot of things, Hey.
Speaker 6: Society has been wrong about a lot of things.
Speaker 1: He's wrong. Did you just drop your ar because you're
Speaker 1: talking like a child.
Speaker 3: I've kind of been hearing that the whole call, have you.
Speaker 6: Yes, he's been doing it the whole time. You haven't noticed?
Speaker 5: No, I mean I've been wondering, not too like, are
Speaker 5: you doing that on purpose?
Speaker 4: I mean, I can talk normally if you prefer this.
Speaker 3: Oh my god, my god, Ricky, are you kidding me?
Speaker 1: You're talking like a child?
Speaker 6: That was?
Speaker 2: Do you tell people your name is Wicky?
Speaker 3: God?
Speaker 4: I mean, I'm not cartoonish about it. It's just I
Speaker 4: like speaking that way. It just makes people expect less
Speaker 4: of me.
Speaker 1: And I hate it when women do baby talk too.
Speaker 6: I just that's my line.
Speaker 1: I was with you, Ricky until that baby talk.
Speaker 3: It's child talk. It's one step above. And you're just
Speaker 3: jealous because Ricky is the happiest boy in this whole universe.
Speaker 3: And we would like to set you up a net
Speaker 3: with the happiest boy. If you're willing to go out
Speaker 3: with him one more time, we would pay for that date.
Speaker 5: Absolutely not the uber ride, No mom, anywhere in sight.
Speaker 1: Yeah they have Ubertine, No, they do love that.
Speaker 3: Maybe a coloring book in the back seat.
Speaker 4: Yeah, at this point that would feel predatory.
Speaker 5: I'm not.
Speaker 1: Ricky.
Speaker 4: I don't know what's wrong with you. I'm a man.
Speaker 3: Okay, Ricky, it's going to be a no from a
Speaker 3: net today. I'm so sorry.
Speaker 4: Bud back to the data apps.
Speaker 3: Yeah, he's gonna have a good dance Brook and Jeffrey
Speaker 3: in the morning. God, I just hope Ricky's mom was
Speaker 3: not listening to that call, because he is definitely going
Speaker 3: to be put on time out for raising his voice
Speaker 3: and speaking like a grown man.
Speaker 6: He was so hard.
Speaker 3: Yeah, you struggled the most out of anybody in the room,
Speaker 3: for sure.
Speaker 1: I didn't want to say they mean, but also like,
Speaker 1: let's not do this. Yeah, you know.
Speaker 3: Listen, the good news about Ricky is he makes the
Speaker 3: rest of the male population look way more datable in comparison.
Speaker 1: Well, that's true, and it makes even you look manly,
Speaker 1: jeff all of us.
Speaker 3: All the men listening totally appreciate Ricky. So ladies, if
