Speaker 1: All right. If you're like me, you're out there frantically
Speaker 1: trying to put Christmas together.
Speaker 2: So you know what, Yes, it's crunch time. Start shopping
Speaker 2: on it.
Speaker 3: Come on looking, Jeffrey, and this is the podcast that
Speaker 3: you've been here.
Speaker 2: I'm a little stressed out.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you are too, but hopefully this
Speaker 1: back to back classics will help ease your tension, get
Speaker 1: you some good laughs, and help you get in some
Speaker 1: tasks done.
Speaker 2: So here it is back to back Classics, start right now.
Speaker 4: How do you turn a bona fide nice guy into
Speaker 4: an irresistible battie that no woman can turn down? Sounds impossible.
Speaker 4: It's like turning Sheldon from Big Bang into Vin Diesel
Speaker 4: from Fast and the Furious. I can't it be done well?
Speaker 4: One of our listeners tells us he is fed up
Speaker 4: with being friend zoned. He wants to get ahead of
Speaker 4: things using a bizarre new plan that we have never
Speaker 4: tried before. What is it? We're gonna find out and
Speaker 4: it's successful. It could change the game for nice guys everywhere.
Speaker 4: In your second date update, right after this second Date updated,
Speaker 4: I'm going to share something with our audience that's happened
Speaker 4: behind the scenes here it's brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 2: Oh, what is it going to be?
Speaker 4: I don't remember if Brooke has said this on the
Speaker 4: air and it's not bad, but off the air. Whenever
Speaker 4: somebody brings up online dating, Brooks response and Jose alexis
Speaker 4: you can confirm this, She's always like, Oh, I don't
Speaker 4: think I could ever do online dating. There's just there's
Speaker 4: way too many options. How could you ever just pick one?
Speaker 2: I totally do online dating. I would just never do
Speaker 2: marriage after I did it, exact because I would have
Speaker 2: never dated anybody long enough.
Speaker 4: Yeah, exactly, I see what you mean.
Speaker 2: I thought you meant.
Speaker 4: Okay, it's the crux of dating with all the apps.
Speaker 2: Now, too many choices for people.
Speaker 4: I think it was intended in a good way to
Speaker 4: match people up who would have never found each other
Speaker 4: if they were just left to their normal lives, But
Speaker 4: more often than not, it just ends up being with
Speaker 4: you have so many choices, men and women can't make
Speaker 4: up their mind. They can't commit to just one, and
Speaker 4: if they're not blown away immediately, there's you know, twenty
Speaker 4: other options that they could just go explore.
Speaker 2: I go to the Cereal Aisle and it feels overwhelming. Yea,
Speaker 2: I should choose.
Speaker 4: And the thing is, that's where our listener, Evan is
Speaker 4: at right now. He claims he is a victim of
Speaker 4: being just one guy in a sea of a billion dudes.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, Jeff's dream.
Speaker 4: Yeah, negatives to it. But Evan, welcome to the show.
Speaker 5: Hey guys, yay, Evn.
Speaker 1: I'm sorry man, he sounds like you're going through it
Speaker 1: with this online dating stuff.
Speaker 5: I am. It's been years and there's been ups and downs,
Speaker 5: but I'm just I want to try something new and
Speaker 5: I think it's going to work. I just need a
Speaker 5: little help.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, So what is your your stance on dating
Speaker 4: right now? Like, where are you at?
Speaker 5: I think that you should date a lot of different
Speaker 5: people because experts say that if you focus too much
Speaker 5: on just one person, you're gonna end up disappointed.
Speaker 6: But you're supposed to like date a little bit and
Speaker 6: then when one stands out, then you kind of focus
Speaker 6: on them.
Speaker 4: It doesn't bode well for Brooks married. She is a
Speaker 4: lot on that one guy. Yeah, it's so funny. So Evan,
Speaker 4: you're you're not focusing on just one You're dating a
Speaker 4: lot of different people.
Speaker 5: Well, I wouldn't say a lot, but yeah, I'd say
Speaker 5: a small handful at any given time.
Speaker 1: That's a lot for some Is there one in particular
Speaker 1: that you really like or we just going to call
Speaker 1: ten girls?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 5: There is one. Her name is Jenna and she's a
Speaker 5: top contender.
Speaker 2: Is that a compliment, Alexis it?
Speaker 4: I mean?
Speaker 2: I want to be the top one?
Speaker 4: So where do you and Jenna stand? We have one date.
Speaker 5: It was good and nothing bad happened.
Speaker 7: Is that your bar says, defensively, nothing bad happened?
Speaker 1: I mean, is that your bar like you had a
Speaker 1: good enough date that nothing bad happened. So that's why
Speaker 1: you want to call her?
Speaker 5: Well, sometimes I do feel that way. But this was
Speaker 5: a good date. It was genuinely good, and I do
Speaker 5: believe that she likes me and would like to go
Speaker 5: out on another day with me. I just want to
Speaker 5: try this thing to kind of make her work for.
Speaker 8: A little bit.
Speaker 1: What wait, so you're not calling us because someone's not
Speaker 1: calling you back or isn't interested.
Speaker 5: Craig, She is interested, That's what I believe.
Speaker 4: Okay, this is different. I guess let's hear him out.
Speaker 1: So this girl trying not to think game, He's playing
Speaker 1: games in my head right now.
Speaker 5: It's not a game, but it is reverse psychology.
Speaker 2: Oh that works so good on me.
Speaker 7: Did it just work on you? He's like, I'm trying
Speaker 7: to figure this out.
Speaker 4: I love you already have Brooks interest. Now, so what
Speaker 4: is your idea for reverse psychology with Jenna?
Speaker 5: I want you to call her and tell her that,
Speaker 5: like I thought that she was cool, but I'm a
Speaker 5: little on the fence about it.
Speaker 3: Huh wait, wait, why why would we be calling her
Speaker 3: just to tell her that, yeah, that's going to make
Speaker 3: her morning?
Speaker 4: Why do you want to do it this way with Jenna?
Speaker 5: The thing is, I've had a lot of dates this
Speaker 5: past year where the first meeting is great, but then
Speaker 5: it just it fizzles out. Okay, and the girl will
Speaker 5: say to me, Hey, you're super cool and everything, but
Speaker 5: there's just not a strong enough of a connection for me.
Speaker 2: You're getting friend zoned, is what it sounds like.
Speaker 5: It makes me feel like I need to be defensive
Speaker 5: and prove myself because she's in the power position.
Speaker 4: So okay, all, I see, You're good At.
Speaker 7: The first couple of days, which.
Speaker 4: Is he wants to flip the script on these women,
Speaker 4: and he wants to be in the power because being like, hey, like,
Speaker 4: I think you're cool and everything, but I don't know.
Speaker 4: If it's there, then the girl will have to sell
Speaker 4: herself to hims.
Speaker 7: So we should leave her front alone.
Speaker 4: Wait, here's the thing.
Speaker 1: You sound like a genuinely nice guy, and that's probably
Speaker 1: why this is happening.
Speaker 4: Did you see Alexis gag when you said genuinely nice guys?
Speaker 4: That's the problem.
Speaker 2: Everything makes sense. I mean, you do know this couldn't backfire, right.
Speaker 5: I have nothing to lose at this point, trusting.
Speaker 4: I mean, it is a bold move. You have to
Speaker 4: admit risk.
Speaker 1: Can you tell us anything about Jenna that would make
Speaker 1: you feel like this is gonna work on her?
Speaker 8: Like?
Speaker 2: What is she like? Would you do?
Speaker 5: I can tell you, But she's literally like every other
Speaker 5: girl that I've been dating recently, Like, you know, she's sweet,
Speaker 5: she's funny, she's pretty, like they all are. Yeah, but
Speaker 5: she's gonna turn on me. She's gonna turn exactly.
Speaker 4: Let's not get caught up in the minutia of who
Speaker 4: she is as a person. I don't know if this
Speaker 4: strategy would actually work. It sounds kind of manipulative, similar
Speaker 4: to one of my co hosts, and they're happily married,
Speaker 4: so it might actually be a good strategy.
Speaker 9: At the end of the day.
Speaker 1: Here's my thing, Like, we tell her this statement, and
Speaker 1: then what Jeff, Like we tell her, Hey, so and
Speaker 1: so is, how do we follow up that conversation? You
Speaker 1: know what?
Speaker 4: He is on the other line right now, So like
Speaker 4: maybe if you want to try to convince him to
Speaker 4: go out.
Speaker 2: Like, we won't do a lot of the talking.
Speaker 4: No, I think Evan wants to be in control here.
Speaker 1: So Evan is he's not interested time to call the
Speaker 1: radio Wait on hold, wind around.
Speaker 2: Okay, No, he's not gonna say hello, it's gonna say suck.
Speaker 7: Oh I forgot I was.
Speaker 4: We're just gonna be super non committal about it and
Speaker 4: let Evan swoop in.
Speaker 2: For entertainment purposes. I'm in.
Speaker 4: It's an interesting experiment at the very least, So we're
Speaker 4: gonna find out how it goes when we call her
Speaker 4: in your second date update right after this Hold on man,
Speaker 4: second data date. If you're just joining us for the
Speaker 4: second date, our listener, Evan has asked us to do
Speaker 4: something that we've never really tried on this segment before, because.
Speaker 2: It's not an idea any of us have ever had, no.
Speaker 4: Probably too smart for our simple brain.
Speaker 2: Oh I like that spin.
Speaker 4: But he wants us to call his date Jenna, and
Speaker 4: instead of saying he had a lot of fun with you,
Speaker 4: he really likes you, he wants to see you again,
Speaker 4: coming on kind of strong, even me saying that.
Speaker 2: Are you giving yourself the itch?
Speaker 4: I kind of even that. It does feel like a lot,
Speaker 4: That's why. Instead, Evan wants us to say he reached out.
Speaker 4: But he's kind of on the fence about it, not
Speaker 4: really sure how he feels. So I don't know how
Speaker 4: are you feeling about him? Basically reverse psychology Jenna into
Speaker 4: loving him.
Speaker 1: I'm going to be so disheartened if this works, Like
Speaker 1: you can't just be open with your emotions anymore.
Speaker 4: Well, Evan has been rejected so many times. He's tired
Speaker 4: of being put on that side of the conversation. He
Speaker 4: wants to have the upper hand this time.
Speaker 7: Is the only problem people are like, He's.
Speaker 4: Trying to stop the cycle of what's going on in
Speaker 4: his life, Right, Evan, It's.
Speaker 5: Time I got to stand up for the pack, you know.
Speaker 5: And there's a storyline that's just been playing over and
Speaker 5: over again.
Speaker 1: I think you could have used the quote about like
Speaker 1: how someone who does the same thing over and over
Speaker 1: again but expects a different result is the definition of
Speaker 1: insanity youth.
Speaker 4: And he thinks that if he does it this way,
Speaker 4: then she's going to be more open to not just
Speaker 4: a second date, but the third date, the fourth date.
Speaker 7: So how cool do we play it?
Speaker 6: Jeff I'm worried, like, do we do we get her
Speaker 6: name wrong at first?
Speaker 4: It's a good question, but I think we just have
Speaker 4: to play kind of non committal and more just ask
Speaker 4: her about what she thinks about the date. We'll just
Speaker 4: go right to that. Okay, I like deafening silence from
Speaker 4: the room. Okay, here we go, let's try it.
Speaker 5: Hello.
Speaker 4: Hey, is this Jenna.
Speaker 10: Who's calling?
Speaker 4: We're a radio show actually called Brook and Jeffrey in
Speaker 4: the Morning. Hey Jenna, Hi, thanks for picking up. We're
Speaker 4: doing a segment on our show A you may have
Speaker 4: heard of it before. It's called a second date update.
Speaker 11: Yes, but where you got your calling me?
Speaker 1: We're kind of surprised we're calling you too. Yeah, this
Speaker 1: segment because it doesn't actually fit.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, this is a little bit different than what
Speaker 4: we normally do. But we got an email from one
Speaker 4: of our listeners that you went out with His name's Evan. Okay, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 4: remember going out with Evan?
Speaker 10: I do? Okay, yeah I do.
Speaker 4: Evan emailed our show. He told us that the two
Speaker 4: of you went out and you know yet he had
Speaker 4: a decent time. He's considering seeing you again, but he
Speaker 4: is kind of on the fence about it.
Speaker 9: Yeah what he said that, he's just he I.
Speaker 4: Mean, yeah, like he enjoyed the date, no question about it,
Speaker 4: but the future he's a little bit uncertain of.
Speaker 10: So he doesn't like me.
Speaker 1: No, no, no, no, he doesn't not like you, but
Speaker 1: he just doesn't he doesn't know.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, his heart is congested. What confused? I don't know.
Speaker 4: He he doesn't know. That's tell what I meant. He
Speaker 4: doesn't know where his mind is at one hundred percent.
Speaker 4: He's trying to figure stuff out.
Speaker 10: I guess I'm just confused. I thought we liked each other.
Speaker 10: I thought everything was.
Speaker 4: Say specifically that he liked you? Or did you just
Speaker 4: feel the d.
Speaker 2: Does that anymore?
Speaker 1: What?
Speaker 2: Did he write a note and circle yes or no?
Speaker 2: Do you like you?
Speaker 4: Would make it a whole lot easier, But glad I
Speaker 4: like you?
Speaker 7: So far.
Speaker 4: No, Sometimes it's hard to know how people feel. Sometimes
Speaker 4: you're reading signs, you're reading them wrong.
Speaker 10: No, No, we had a great time.
Speaker 8: We even kissed.
Speaker 4: Okay, well that's good. Tell us more of stuff like that,
Speaker 4: like what exactly happened on the day. We'll give us
Speaker 4: more indications of why you think he liked you were.
Speaker 2: Out of a box right now.
Speaker 10: Well, I mean we grabed drinks, I got to really
Speaker 10: know him. He was super, super nice. I don't really
Speaker 10: go out with nice guys, so he was the first
Speaker 10: nice guy in a very long time.
Speaker 2: Or she thinks.
Speaker 9: More.
Speaker 4: Yeah, maybe you thought that he liked you, but he
Speaker 4: never actually said that to you. Could just be like
Speaker 4: a vibe that you were getting.
Speaker 10: Honestly, this is just extremely disappointing to hear because we
Speaker 10: were vibing.
Speaker 4: Okay, Well, maybe the vibe that you're feeling from him
Speaker 4: is the literal phone line connection that is happening right
Speaker 4: now because he is listening to this call.
Speaker 2: Oh makes him feel like he wants it more. Yeah,
Speaker 2: you know, I'm just going to say that.
Speaker 4: I will say he does want to talk.
Speaker 10: To you, though, Evan, what is going on? I'm so confused.
Speaker 5: Yeah, I'm sorry to throw a loop in things. But
Speaker 5: you thought I was nice? Yeah, I thought you were
Speaker 5: really nice too. But uh, I'm just not totally sure
Speaker 5: that there's a romantic connection between us. I'm just not sure.
Speaker 10: Huh. Okay, well I guess I guess maybe we're just
Speaker 10: better off friends.
Speaker 4: Well hold on, what are you doing, dude.
Speaker 5: I don't I don't think we should jump to that.
Speaker 5: I just I need to be sure that you really
Speaker 5: do feel that way before I.
Speaker 8: This is weird.
Speaker 10: This is a very strange way of going about this.
Speaker 2: I don't even understand where he's trying to go here.
Speaker 4: Evan, you're saying, you're saying that she's saying that she
Speaker 4: likes you, but you're not sure if you believe.
Speaker 5: That, not completely, because I'm a nice guy and I
Speaker 5: I have a hard time believing that she really likes that.
Speaker 1: I thought you just said you were attracted to her
Speaker 1: because there was no romantic connection for you.
Speaker 5: I'm not saying there isn't. There isn't. I'm not sure.
Speaker 5: I'm in the middle here.
Speaker 2: Okay, your message, I think is getting a little lost.
Speaker 4: Yeah, well, Jenna, maybe you have to show him a
Speaker 4: little bit more strongly that the feelings are there that
Speaker 4: it's worth it.
Speaker 11: After all this, why would I do that?
Speaker 10: I mean, this was it was going so well without
Speaker 10: even getting anyone else involved. This is like turning me away.
Speaker 4: You see, one day they're saying they like him, and
Speaker 4: then all of a sudden something switches and switches.
Speaker 1: Is you telling her there's no romantic connection and that
Speaker 1: you weren't sure if you liked her or not.
Speaker 2: That's the switch. You can turn that back. You can
Speaker 2: be honest about where you stand.
Speaker 10: I would have never been weirded out as I am
Speaker 10: right this moment if you just didn't do all this.
Speaker 10: This is very strange of what's turning me off.
Speaker 4: Oh no, it.
Speaker 5: Would have happened on the second or her date anyway.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Jenny, one realize this now, but after three dates
Speaker 4: with him, you would realize that you weren't into him.
Speaker 2: Now we're going to tell her how she's going to
Speaker 2: feel on a future date unless.
Speaker 4: We're wrong, Because we unless we're wrong, Because normally at
Speaker 4: this time I would offer to send you guys out
Speaker 4: and we would pay for it. But I kind of
Speaker 4: have a vibe that both of you are still on
Speaker 4: the fence. At least you might want to plead your
Speaker 4: case to him right now, Jenna and ask Evan out.
Speaker 2: After he turned her down.
Speaker 5: I want to partner who will fight for me.
Speaker 4: Okay after one date, that's respectable. I think it's an
Speaker 4: Are you willing to fight for him, Jenna right now?
Speaker 10: To be asked?
Speaker 1: You know, I mean, you have nothing else to lose
Speaker 1: at this point, Evan, Why don't you just tell her
Speaker 1: the truth?
Speaker 10: I mean, what is this truth? You have to tell me?
Speaker 10: This is the very insane that how this is working
Speaker 10: out right now? If you have to tell me something,
Speaker 10: I mean, you might as well tell me right now.
Speaker 5: Look, the truth is I really like you. And I
Speaker 5: was afraid that if I just carried on being nice
Speaker 5: and showing that I really liked you, that you would
Speaker 5: get bored with me. And if I use reverse psychology
Speaker 5: on you, then you would think that I was a
Speaker 5: bad boy or like something that you're really attracted to
Speaker 5: and want to, like, really work towards winning me. I'm
Speaker 5: usually the one that's trying to win somebody over, and
Speaker 5: I wanted to flip the script.
Speaker 10: Oh buddy, I mean, thank you for being honest finally
Speaker 10: about this.
Speaker 8: It was weird.
Speaker 10: It was a weird way of going about it, but
Speaker 10: he was just.
Speaker 2: Trying something new.
Speaker 1: Dating's hard these days, and he liked you, and he
Speaker 1: didn't know how to keep it going, and it wasn't
Speaker 1: the smartest move.
Speaker 2: I think he is finally understanding that.
Speaker 4: Yes, yeah, now that we've really sold him, we'd love
Speaker 4: to offer to send you guys out on another date, Jenna,
Speaker 4: and we would pay for it. I mean, he has
Speaker 4: finally come clean, He's told you the truth, and no
Speaker 4: more games going forward, at least not from Evans, has
Speaker 4: never happened.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Jenna, I promised no games going forward.
Speaker 1: Come on, Jenna, don't meet the player, hate the game.
Speaker 2: Let's go one more day, don't. Yeah, we're the games.
Speaker 4: We're going to date.
Speaker 11: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Reverse psychology does work.
Speaker 2: The honest truth works, Your real feelings work.
Speaker 7: Like we feel accomplished when literally nothing changed.
Speaker 1: We did it.
Speaker 5: You guys have the best.
Speaker 4: Thank you, You're welcome.
Speaker 2: Buddy, my brain, I don't feel like it.
Speaker 9: It's freaking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 4: I don't think there's any way she would have said
Speaker 4: yes if Evan didn't finally come clean and just be
Speaker 4: honest about his true feelings at the end.
Speaker 2: There, Yeah, no, I mean we literally just we added
Speaker 2: more drama.
Speaker 7: We did, and there was no need for it. This
Speaker 7: is what happens when us non cool guys try and
Speaker 7: play cool.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: That's right, Jose be yourself.
Speaker 4: Yeah yeah, it's a nice dude, be a nice dude.
Speaker 4: So a win for nice guys everywhere. And he's lucky
Speaker 4: that for some weird reason she just liked him for
Speaker 4: who he was.
Speaker 1: But I really don't want to get an update from
Speaker 1: them that on the third date she decided there was
Speaker 1: no romantic.
Speaker 4: He's just too nice.
Speaker 3: More so, we need to talk to all the girls
Speaker 3: to find out what's the real reason.
Speaker 7: He keeps up the act and he shows up an
Speaker 7: hour late to the date.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's all right. But you know what, if you're
Speaker 4: a nice guy, or if you're a bad boy, or
Speaker 4: anything in between, we will help you with your dating life.
Speaker 4: Email the show. We'll call that person who's not calling
Speaker 4: you back. Go check out all of our second dates
Speaker 4: wherever you get your podcast app Brooke and Jeffrey and on.
Speaker 9: YouTube Freaking Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 4: Look, kids are great.
Speaker 7: Love I see it, I hear.
Speaker 1: Yes.
Speaker 4: Sometimes I'm just saying sometimes there are certain situations where
Speaker 4: you'd rather not have a child around. Oh for sure,
Speaker 4: at the Tantric massage parlor near Brooks House, I.
Speaker 2: Would not invite kids there the kids are welcoming there.
Speaker 4: Or at an important job interview. He's a Timothy, he
Speaker 4: might be my future boss. Please don't say that. Or
Speaker 4: in the middle of a romantic dinner date now, but
Speaker 4: that's what happened to one of our listeners recently when
Speaker 4: a random child walked up to their table at the
Speaker 4: restaurant and decided to say something. They didn't realize that
Speaker 4: the time would throw off the rest of the entire evening.
Speaker 4: So we're not again not saying kids are bad.
Speaker 2: Saying they shouldn't be allowed in restaurants.
Speaker 4: Child should in and apologize for what you're about to hear.
Speaker 4: Second day updated, Next second date update. What's the fastest
Speaker 4: you've ever gone from dating app to first date?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 7: Wow, that's interesting because usually.
Speaker 4: It takes some your sweet talking and finagling little get
Speaker 4: to know you. You make a couple jokes, exchange a
Speaker 4: couple picks. But Gabe says they only sent two messages
Speaker 4: before they agreed to meet up to record what.
Speaker 2: One the messages. It had to be more than how
Speaker 2: are you Wow?
Speaker 4: I don't know what it says. It either screamed super
Speaker 4: charming or super desperate? So which one of those would
Speaker 4: you say describes you the best?
Speaker 8: I would say definitely super charming.
Speaker 1: You know, it's okay if you're both desperate at the
Speaker 1: same time. It cancels each other out. It's like two
Speaker 1: negatives gay right.
Speaker 6: Gave a lot of people can relate. I had a
Speaker 6: girl snap me the other day, Hey, I got a
Speaker 6: pack of butt lights? Can I come over? And I
Speaker 6: was like, whoa well, stranger danger?
Speaker 2: That's a terrible yeah.
Speaker 4: I know.
Speaker 7: She obviously was yes and gave.
Speaker 4: By the way, that was his mom too. Everyone, you're
Speaker 4: already starting off on a higher level than us. Tell
Speaker 4: us about the woman that you met online, right, Yeah, So.
Speaker 8: I met this girl in Abby off a dating app
Speaker 8: and we didn't really mess her around with this small
Speaker 8: talk right away, and I'm like that anyway, so it
Speaker 8: was kind of perfect. She's like, Hey, I'm not a
Speaker 8: big texture or pen pal person, let's just meet.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, doing is that the first message she sent you?
Speaker 2: Or had you messaged her first?
Speaker 1: No?
Speaker 8: No, that was on her dating profile.
Speaker 2: Oh, okay, So it wasn't special treatment for you.
Speaker 8: Correct. She's very blunt into the point, which I really loved.
Speaker 2: So what did you write to her to make her
Speaker 2: interested in meeting up with you in person?
Speaker 6: Well?
Speaker 8: I think it wasn't much. It was like, I agree
Speaker 8: with you, let's not get stuck on this app in text,
Speaker 8: let's meet in person. And she had an amazing smile,
Speaker 8: so I knew I was there was attraction. So I'm like, great,
Speaker 8: let's meet.
Speaker 4: That's awesome because you have the entire rest of your
Speaker 4: lives to talk and bore each other and get to
Speaker 4: know each other that way. Let's just cut right to
Speaker 4: the gym room.
Speaker 1: I don't know that your total strangers, Like you don't mean,
Speaker 1: it's one thing when you're like set up on a
Speaker 1: blind date by a friend, you just there's some like, well,
Speaker 1: somebody's vouching for this person.
Speaker 2: True, this is like out of the.
Speaker 7: Blue internet stranger.
Speaker 9: Yeah.
Speaker 8: I didn't really feel she was a stranger. Like she
Speaker 8: had a nice listings of stuff on her profile. I
Speaker 8: kind of had an idea of who she was, you
Speaker 8: know what I mean, Like I kind of knew, at
Speaker 8: least in writing what kind of person she was, so
Speaker 8: I felt comfortable.
Speaker 5: Was a big deal.
Speaker 4: That's great. So that is good, Yes, yeah, a little
Speaker 4: little danger. It is exciting her. So what did you
Speaker 4: guys end up doing?
Speaker 7: I mean you obviously met.
Speaker 8: Right, Yeah, so we met up at a restaurant.
Speaker 2: Are really jumped right into it. I thought for sure
Speaker 2: it'd be.
Speaker 8: Coffee, Yeah it was. It was dinner and she getting
Speaker 8: to know her a little bit at dinner. She's a
Speaker 8: very to the point person, but still friendly. She wasn't
Speaker 8: like ameanor and isn't. She's a very beautiful, great smile.
Speaker 7: That'd be kind of funny.
Speaker 6: She sits down, She's like, all right, let's get these
Speaker 6: appetisers going.
Speaker 7: Don't look at me, don't talk to me. Let's first, Yeah,
Speaker 7: let's eat and then we'll go from there.
Speaker 1: But it's so different, like you're going into a dinner
Speaker 1: where you know nothing about this person.
Speaker 2: All the other days, are you know some history?
Speaker 9: Right?
Speaker 7: Yeah, a little bit.
Speaker 4: But if you get to know people, then that gives
Speaker 4: you reasons to not like that, saf to not do that.
Speaker 4: I get it, just like I've never Yeah, I don't
Speaker 4: want that. No one should ever ask me anything. What
Speaker 4: did it work out?
Speaker 8: Well?
Speaker 4: For you, Gab and Abby?
Speaker 2: Yeah, what was the conversation?
Speaker 8: Like, it was a great conversation. We talked about family
Speaker 8: and what she's into and what she does outside of work.
Speaker 8: So it was a nice flow. I mean, I'm not
Speaker 8: gonna lie. And then actually, something really cute happened. Some
Speaker 8: little kid came up to our table. He was in
Speaker 8: a like a Superman cape, you know. He came kind
Speaker 8: of running up and she was playing along like, hey, Superman,
Speaker 8: are you here? Looking for you a villain? Like she
Speaker 8: was like playing into this kid.
Speaker 2: Said some parents like this is a restaurant.
Speaker 8: Basically I have would have been the same way, like kids,
Speaker 8: go scram go with your parents. You're interrupting our day.
Speaker 8: So like she was like charming actually, and so I
Speaker 8: was like, oh and look at I want to have
Speaker 8: kids one day. And so I'm like, maybe this would
Speaker 8: be a great mom.
Speaker 2: It's a future. Milk didn't tell her that. That's usually
Speaker 2: a turn off when you hear that on a first
Speaker 2: date you're going to be a great mom.
Speaker 8: Yeah, no, I held off on that.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a sweet thought.
Speaker 4: How did the dinner end?
Speaker 8: So it ended, I thought pretty well. And I said
Speaker 8: to her, you know, I'm thinking I'd want another day
Speaker 8: with you, and she kind of laughs and says, we'll see,
Speaker 8: but in a cute the way. But now it's been here,
Speaker 8: we are a week and a half later and and nothing.
Speaker 8: She hasn't responded to me, So.
Speaker 2: Maybe she wasn't being as cutesy as you thought when.
Speaker 8: She said that, Yeah, did I do something wrong? Did
Speaker 8: I say something? I'd like to know where I stand.
Speaker 8: I feel like it's.
Speaker 2: Gonna be easy if this is a direct person.
Speaker 7: I'm just gonna say that easier to pick up and
Speaker 7: then it should be a short phone call.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but she might be brutally honest, so prepared for that.
Speaker 4: But you would think if she was that brutally honest,
Speaker 4: she would have just told him directly, we're not going
Speaker 4: to hang out again. Hanging Yeah, I don't know. Around
Speaker 4: could have been her kid actually in real life, and
Speaker 4: she just wanted to, like from Mommy's on the.
Speaker 2: Date I told you sit in booth number four, honey.
Speaker 4: That could have been her little test and you.
Speaker 8: Failed, super boy God, that really was her kid, then
Speaker 8: you know, that's pretty impressive. Bravo to her. I didn't
Speaker 8: see that coming, but the kid didn't look like her.
Speaker 8: By the way, it didn't look like her, so I
Speaker 8: didn't think that you better go check.
Speaker 2: Your bill make sure you didn't pay for kids.
Speaker 4: We're gonna find out for sure when we come back.
Speaker 4: We call this woman and we interrogate her on if
Speaker 4: she's a mom or not, and if she wants to
Speaker 4: go out with you again.
Speaker 2: I think we get come in a little looser than
Speaker 2: that hard.
Speaker 4: And fast Superman. Can we do your second date update
Speaker 4: right after this.
Speaker 9: Date?
Speaker 4: Look, it's a kid.
Speaker 7: A restaurant and he didn't get kicked out.
Speaker 4: Because one of our listeners, Gabe was on a date
Speaker 4: with a woman recently when a super child swooped up
Speaker 4: to their table. Yeah, and the woman he was with,
Speaker 4: named Abby, treated him really nicely, shocking.
Speaker 2: Played along, even got into the game of pretend.
Speaker 4: Yeah, like who's the villain? Ah Broccoli is my kryptonite? No,
Speaker 4: And when he suggested afterwards that they hang out again,
Speaker 4: Abby replied, we'll see.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: She thought was flirting until she stopped calling him yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, directly to the point. And hopefully it's not going
Speaker 4: to take superhero strength to get Gabe another date here,
Speaker 4: because looking around the room, I don't know if we
Speaker 4: have it in this To be.
Speaker 1: Honest, Alexis said, she lifted one way to that Jim
Speaker 1: yesterday I did.
Speaker 2: I'm a little sore, but I might be able to
Speaker 2: pull for you.
Speaker 10: Wow.
Speaker 4: Two and a half pounder. Good for you, any chance?
Speaker 4: Never mind, I would have given us more credit, Gabe.
Speaker 4: On a scale of one to ten, how confident are
Speaker 4: you that we're going to get this done for you?
Speaker 8: Probably a six?
Speaker 9: I thought you.
Speaker 4: Said ten.
Speaker 8: Well yeah, then thinking at you, guys, I just feel
Speaker 8: like I've done something wrong and I'm a little nervous
Speaker 8: about it.
Speaker 7: Okay, so you're the reason it's a six. I like
Speaker 7: that we blame you, all right.
Speaker 4: We're gonna put all the blame on you if this
Speaker 4: goes wrong, but if it goes right, one hundred percent
Speaker 4: of the credit goes to us. I like that deal.
Speaker 4: Let's call this lady for you. See, we can get
Speaker 4: another date.
Speaker 8: Here we go.
Speaker 4: Hello, Hey is this Sabby?
Speaker 11: Yeah?
Speaker 4: Hey Abby? You may or may not know us, but
Speaker 4: we're a radio show called Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning,
Speaker 4: and we were hoping we could take a second of
Speaker 4: your time to talk uh date life.
Speaker 2: What Hi?
Speaker 9: Hi?
Speaker 7: Abby?
Speaker 2: Sorry? I almost called you Gabby because.
Speaker 4: I mean, it kind of makes sense you were laughing
Speaker 4: at what I said.
Speaker 7: Sorry, I probably talked to her a little bit.
Speaker 4: I like talking around her. Gabby, what's up? You know what,
Speaker 4: I'm mashing the name up with the guy that you
Speaker 4: went out.
Speaker 6: With recently, boasting either this is all awful.
Speaker 7: I'm sorry, Abby, you know what.
Speaker 4: At this point, we're just gonna have Alexis takeover run
Speaker 4: the combo on the phone.
Speaker 7: Where's four of US's a whole room full of us together?
Speaker 2: We make more from you.
Speaker 7: Well, we're a morning show. It's a radio show.
Speaker 11: I'm on the radio.
Speaker 4: Yeah, we got there when we're doing a segment called
Speaker 4: a second Date Update and we're trying to help out
Speaker 4: one of our listeners named Gabe, who you met at
Speaker 4: a restaurant recently.
Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, I know.
Speaker 2: Did you have a fun time with Gabe?
Speaker 11: Look here, this is the all I like getting to
Speaker 11: know him. I found him to be interesting at first,
Speaker 11: but then he said a bunch of things that are
Speaker 11: pretty out putting to me.
Speaker 8: And I'm just gonna leave it at that.
Speaker 4: Oh, I'm sorry.
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, I mean one of the good things he
Speaker 1: said about you is he loved how honest you were,
Speaker 1: and so I don't I don't know that he would
Speaker 1: be hurt to hear what you.
Speaker 2: Have to say.
Speaker 4: Yeah, he's just a little clueless. I don't think that
Speaker 4: he realizes that he said anything that could have come
Speaker 4: across offensive.
Speaker 11: One of the things that he sent to me at
Speaker 11: first was you look nice in this light.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, Well, because it's in this light.
Speaker 11: That's the thing. There was no light. It was super
Speaker 11: dark where we were, Like, I looked nice in the dark.
Speaker 8: That look.
Speaker 4: I've heard you say this before, Like, ooh, the lighting
Speaker 4: in here is perfect.
Speaker 2: For me that I can say that about myself.
Speaker 11: He said. More than that. We haven't even gotten to
Speaker 11: the other things he said.
Speaker 4: Okay, oh there's more.
Speaker 11: He said, I bet you're so pretty that the guys
Speaker 11: online are throwing themselves at you. What the guys in
Speaker 11: person don't like?
Speaker 2: Okay, I think that's a little bit of a stretch.
Speaker 1: I think that maybe you were hurt from the lighting comment,
Speaker 1: and then you're like, so now you're looking for the
Speaker 1: backhanded compliments.
Speaker 11: No, like, I have nothing else to offer except my look,
Speaker 11: Like come on.
Speaker 2: Well, you know what's interesting. He didn't even bring up
Speaker 2: your looks when we talked to him about what she
Speaker 2: has other things to offer.
Speaker 1: He talked about how lovely and and and how great
Speaker 1: she was with the kid and what a good person
Speaker 1: she said, Kid, you did.
Speaker 4: Mention a good moment where a kid came up to
Speaker 4: the table and you were really playful.
Speaker 11: Yeah, he was like, I'm so impressed that I shockingly
Speaker 11: be good with kids. Like, of course him good with kids.
Speaker 2: It seems like.
Speaker 4: Every time hold on you were offended that he said
Speaker 4: that you seem to be good with kids.
Speaker 8: Yeah, like, why wouldn't I be.
Speaker 1: I don't think he meant it as a surprise. He
Speaker 1: just has never met you before, so everything's new and.
Speaker 4: He's blue expectations.
Speaker 2: But I just think you give him a chance. Like
Speaker 2: he's nervous, he's trying to be nice to you.
Speaker 11: I don't see it that way at all.
Speaker 4: Well, you don't have to take it directly from us.
Speaker 4: You can actually hear it straight from Gabe's mouth, because
Speaker 4: he's on the other line listening right now, wanting to
Speaker 4: talk to you and not compliment you in any way. Well,
Speaker 4: I don't know that, Gabe.
Speaker 8: Are you there, Hey, guys, Hey Abby, hey here we are.
Speaker 4: Like this award, He's clearly a little bit scared.
Speaker 11: So there's another person on the line too.
Speaker 2: It's a good guy, the one you went out with.
Speaker 11: Ah, this is like a crazy party it Gabe, talk
Speaker 11: to Abby, tell her what you meant.
Speaker 9: So.
Speaker 8: I didn't mean anything like negative or derogatory. I was
Speaker 8: trying to compliment you. I was trying to be flirty.
Speaker 8: I was trying to be cutty, cheeky, you know what
Speaker 8: I mean. And I don't remember you having an ego.
Speaker 10: Like you do.
Speaker 8: Now I will say that that's but I mean, I
Speaker 8: just I'm shocked to hear all this. And when I
Speaker 8: said you look good in this light, you took it
Speaker 8: in a way that I meant that had nothing to
Speaker 8: do with what you thought. It was like, maybe you
Speaker 8: have some insecurity issues.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 11: Oh so that's what I'm talking about.
Speaker 4: Okay, let me just jump in really quick. I think
Speaker 4: what he meant by that is I'm really really sorry.
Speaker 1: All you have to do is bring Jeff on every
Speaker 1: date you ever go on, and he will interpret in
Speaker 1: the correct way.
Speaker 4: Men have a hard time expressing what they really feel inside,
Speaker 4: so I can train he's deeply apologetic.
Speaker 11: I am not hearing that at all.
Speaker 2: Like, GiB why are you saying.
Speaker 1: Things like that, You're being like, you're like accusing her
Speaker 1: of having a big ego and being insecure.
Speaker 2: Why would you even mention that?
Speaker 8: Again, I was being trying to be cute and flirty,
Speaker 8: and now I'm hearing the side of her like which
Speaker 8: came out of nowhere. She didn't say any of this
Speaker 8: during our dinner. I'm just glad I didn't say anything wrong, truly, because.
Speaker 4: Yes, I can understand gave you. You're feeling a little
Speaker 4: bit attacked because she's she's she thinks that you're being insulting,
Speaker 4: and you don't feel that way. Maybe this is a
Speaker 4: good chance to hit the reset button and try complimenting
Speaker 4: her in a totally non offensive, completely one hundred percent
Speaker 4: safe way. Every let's give it a shit.
Speaker 2: Do not say you're smart for a woman, don't say.
Speaker 4: That, don't don't say what Brooks husband tells to her.
Speaker 8: I will compliment you right now again, Abby, like I
Speaker 8: did a few times. You are remarkable, you are gorgeous
Speaker 8: and an incredible soon to be mother. And how you
Speaker 8: kind of played with that young kid who came over.
Speaker 11: I want fat now too.
Speaker 8: No, No, where are you getting this what's wrong, like,
Speaker 8: what's happening here?
Speaker 11: No enough, Honestly, this has been enough. I didn't need
Speaker 11: to engage in it a second time, quite frankly, So
Speaker 11: I'm it word of advice next time you go out
Speaker 11: with a woman, A beautiful woman, a lovely woman. I mean,
Speaker 11: maybe just try not to shame her all the time. Okay,
Speaker 11: I don't think it's not a bad.
Speaker 2: Piece of advice of course.
Speaker 4: Gave you can compliment her on that nice piece of
Speaker 4: advice that.
Speaker 8: She gave you. That was a wonderful piece of advice. Abby.
Speaker 8: I'm going to take it to heart, and I'm going
Speaker 8: to make a note in my journal about it when
Speaker 8: I write tonight. So I appreciate that, and I wish
Speaker 8: you the best. You're You're beautiful, You're charming. I don't
Speaker 8: have an ego.
Speaker 11: We're done wonderful.
Speaker 7: You are we even gonna ask?
Speaker 4: Well, we still need to. I think technically their.
Speaker 7: Chemistry is off, like no one's done anything crazy.
Speaker 2: This would happen if they texted before they went on.
Speaker 4: It's a good point. But we would love to offer
Speaker 4: to send you guys out to meet up one more time. Well,
Speaker 4: it's a no from Abby. It sounds like, but Gabe,
Speaker 4: I haven't heard from you. Are you still in a
Speaker 4: solo date by yourself?
Speaker 9: Oh?
Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean if you guys are paying, I wouldn't
Speaker 8: mind that. That's nice.
Speaker 4: Okay, like practice, yes, by yourself, maybe across from a mirror.
Speaker 7: Is at a lowlit diner just talking to himself.
Speaker 4: Getting super offended by the things that he said.
Speaker 9: Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 4: Okay, Well that was one of those second dates that
Speaker 4: escalates quickly and we don't know what to do with it.
Speaker 2: You know, it's like, how could two opposite people just
Speaker 2: find each other?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I know, they just don't go well together.
Speaker 4: They did, Brooke, though, I do have to give it
Speaker 4: to you here because for what you were very calm
Speaker 4: and rational when talking to the callers today and not
Speaker 4: emotional and controller like normal. I was impressed, is what
Speaker 4: I'm trying to say.
Speaker 2: That is what we call it backhand compliment. Jeffrey.
Speaker 4: No, I'm just saying that you were so poised that
Speaker 4: I hardly even noticed your mismatched outfit. Okay, you can't
Speaker 4: take to that I'm giving you a compliment. I said,
Speaker 4: I did not know it the years round.
Speaker 2: If it was anyone else, I'd take offense to it.
Speaker 2: And I don't really care about his opinion.
Speaker 4: Bro, I think that you're hearing what you want to
Speaker 4: hear that. Yeah, and just the fact that you're hearing
Speaker 4: it all at your age is so let's get a
Speaker 4: lost everybody.
Speaker 7: I can't.
Speaker 4: Let's get I can't hear that studio loves you. That's
Speaker 4: what I'm trying to say. Remember, if you want to
Speaker 4: get a second date up that you can email the show.
Speaker 4: We'll call that person wasn't calling you back. Check out
Speaker 4: all our second date updates on our podcast. Wherever you
