Speaker 1: The second day. One of our listeners is living out
Speaker 1: my absolute worst dating nightmare. Oh, I want to know
Speaker 1: what your nightmare is. I'm excited going out with someone
Speaker 1: that was set up by your mom. I should have
Speaker 1: seen that coming, because the type of person your mom
Speaker 1: thinks you should be dating is usually a lot different
Speaker 1: than the people that you're actually into, and always unattractive.
Speaker 1: I mean I don't know that way, but like always
Speaker 1: I'm attractive, but I'm the most gorgeous man in the world.
Speaker 1: A good view. You know. One of our listeners went
Speaker 1: out with someone that was set up by their mom.
Speaker 1: Her name is Ivy. She needs our help today, Ivy.
Speaker 1: Oh boy, Hi, oh my god. I can't believe you
Speaker 1: let your mom set you up. No, it wasn't my mom,
Speaker 1: it was his mom. Still same deal. Yeah, but it's
Speaker 1: easier on her. Yeah, Like now it kind of makes
Speaker 1: sense why he's not calling you back. I guess tell
Speaker 1: us how you and his mom know each other? Like,
Speaker 1: how did that happen? So I actually work with his mom? Okay,
Speaker 1: she's actually been working on me for a long time,
Speaker 1: like she has mentioned so many times, like, oh, I
Speaker 1: have a son, just about your aide. He's so handsome,
Speaker 1: and I don't know why he's single, and you know,
Speaker 1: you two should get together. And I would always be like,
Speaker 1: oh no, I'm not only looking and whatever. Yeah, because
Speaker 1: you didn't believe her when she said that her son
Speaker 1: was awesome? Did you name? No? But that's the thing
Speaker 1: about guys with moms that are constantly pitching them around.
Speaker 1: Usually they tend to actually be awesome. I wouldn't say,
Speaker 1: I'm just I'm trying to vouch for him. Who is
Speaker 1: this guy anyway? What's his name? His name is Nate? Nate? Okay,
Speaker 1: And finally she actually showed me a picture of him,
Speaker 1: and I was like, oh, okay, okay, all right, So
Speaker 1: you saw it and you immediately thought, okay, let's do this. Yeah.
Speaker 1: So I started asking more questions and I was like, okay, well,
Speaker 1: what's the cat, like, what is on? And you know,
Speaker 1: he's single, no kids, like, he has a job like
Speaker 1: all that kind of stuff. So I was like, okay, yeah,
Speaker 1: if you want to give him my number, that's good. So,
Speaker 1: I mean, you eventually ended up going out with him.
Speaker 1: What did you guys do? So he asked me to
Speaker 1: pick a place, and I love barbecue. Oh yeah, that
Speaker 1: is such a bold, strong move by a woman too. Yeah,
Speaker 1: you know what I mean, Like, you're not going to
Speaker 1: some hipster place it's going to cost twenty dollars for
Speaker 1: a cocktail. You were getting down and dirty quick, and
Speaker 1: I like that about it. Especially on a first dates.
Speaker 1: It's kind of a messy. I mean, he said you
Speaker 1: like barbecue too. So as far as I know, it
Speaker 1: all seemed to be going really well. Like describe, I mean,
Speaker 1: did you guys meet there? Like, what was it like
Speaker 1: when you because you know his mom, but you don't
Speaker 1: know him. Yeah, so I didn't want to get in
Speaker 1: a car with him, so I just ubered there. Okay,
Speaker 1: this in case, you know, I drank or whatever, which
Speaker 1: was not really an issue. I had like a beer
Speaker 1: that was that, but you never know, you never know. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it was a seventy What was the vibe between you two?
Speaker 1: I mean it seemed like we were having fun. It
Speaker 1: was really just like chill and relaxed. U. There was
Speaker 1: like one part of the night that might have been
Speaker 1: a little weird because like I mean, like I said,
Speaker 1: I like to joke around, so I pretended at one
Speaker 1: point I was like choking. Oh wait, what do you mean?
Speaker 1: I doesn't think like sampler platter and there were wings
Speaker 1: on it. I pretended like I was like choking on
Speaker 1: a bone, and he was kind of freaked out. What
Speaker 1: was the thinking behind that? Exactly a move for you.
Speaker 1: I thought it would be funny, and I just wanted
Speaker 1: to like shake things up because things had been really
Speaker 1: fun up to that point. What. Oh, no, I'm sorry,
Speaker 1: but she's one of our listeners that writes in is
Speaker 1: like phone tap my mom and tell her I was
Speaker 1: in a terrible accident. Did you just make like a
Speaker 1: gagging sound or something? What did you do? I just
Speaker 1: like houghing and like grabbed my throat and like up
Speaker 1: waiting at my mouth. And I was like, no, I'm
Speaker 1: telling me, messing with you. Okay, okay, I'm sorry. We
Speaker 1: know why he's not calling back. I don't know how
Speaker 1: did he react. What did Nate think? I don't know,
Speaker 1: Like he's been kind of weirder that but then he
Speaker 1: was like, oh, yeah, that's funny. Well, I mean I
Speaker 1: thought it was funny and he didn't think it was
Speaker 1: like a turn on. He was like, oh yeah, He's like,
Speaker 1: let me help, Like that's not mouth to mouth, Like
Speaker 1: all right, what happened after the fake choking incident. I mean,
Speaker 1: like I thought after that it was normal. It was
Speaker 1: all fine, That's the only thing I can think of.
Speaker 1: It was like weird. Okay, So I mean, how did
Speaker 1: you guys wrap things up? So look at bird? And
Speaker 1: he actually offered me a ride home. Okay, that's a
Speaker 1: good sign. Yeah, but he took me straight home. And
Speaker 1: then I was like, well, do you want to come
Speaker 1: in for a little bit? And he's like, no, I
Speaker 1: really have to go. That's bad because do you want
Speaker 1: to come in anything, But it means you at least
Speaker 1: want to like make out or cuddle or come inside
Speaker 1: and watch me choke on some peanuts and a flash
Speaker 1: shock is a turn onto. He's like, I need to
Speaker 1: leave this uggle with him. Has his mom badgered you
Speaker 1: at work at all and been like how have you
Speaker 1: aren't going out again or anything? No, like she didn't
Speaker 1: mention it. And so after like a week I kind
Speaker 1: of asked her and I was like, Hey, are you
Speaker 1: just wondering if like Nate had said anything about her date?
Speaker 1: And was like, oh, I just I really don't want
Speaker 1: to get involved now. She doesn't want to be involved something,
Speaker 1: and she definitely doesn't want to tell you because it's bad. Well,
Speaker 1: let's see if we can find out something. You know,
Speaker 1: sometimes when you're in the presence of true, powerful love,
Speaker 1: it can make you feel a little choked up. But
Speaker 1: you know, oh god, I thought you were going to
Speaker 1: be serious for a second, I feel like this is
Speaker 1: a little much. I mean, usually it's not litteral choking,
Speaker 1: you know. Well, on Ivy's first date, though, it was
Speaker 1: because during an awkward moment at dinner, she pretended to
Speaker 1: choke on a chicken wing, you know, as a joke. Yeah,
Speaker 1: funny joke to break the silence. Make the guy laugh. Now,
Speaker 1: she says he did laugh a little bit. We're not
Speaker 1: sure how he actually felt about it, though, so we're
Speaker 1: gonna call him in a second and ask about it.
Speaker 1: But Ivy, I should ask did you go full eye
Speaker 1: bulge with it or did you just go half How
Speaker 1: committed were we? I don't know, Like I said, I
Speaker 1: wasn't like acting like I was really dying. But could
Speaker 1: you give us a little sample? Can we just hear
Speaker 1: like what it might have sounded like on the date
Speaker 1: right now? I mean you're not getting the visual, but try.
Speaker 1: Oh no, it's not realistic. Oh yeah, when you're really choking,
Speaker 1: you can't vocalize or make any sounds because the air
Speaker 1: pot's blocked. So that was probably your problem. Not realistic
Speaker 1: enough with your fit choking? Why do you know so much?
Speaker 1: If he was out with Jeff, he would have just
Speaker 1: sat there and stared at you. No, Jeff would have
Speaker 1: been like, you're not choking, let me show you what
Speaker 1: it's lying And no, we're just messing around you. Obviously, Ivy,
Speaker 1: you've been a real good sport letting us joke with you. Okay,
Speaker 1: that's the thing though, that's my sense of humor too,
Speaker 1: like I like to joke goodus. I mean, maybe if
Speaker 1: you have a chance to explain that to him, or
Speaker 1: we can explain that too him, maybe he'll see that,
Speaker 1: you know, yeah maybe. Okay, first we have to get
Speaker 1: him on the line first, so let's style his number.
Speaker 1: We'll see if he answers, and we're gonna get your
Speaker 1: second ad update. Okay, okay, all right, we'll call you
Speaker 1: in when we're ready. Here we go. Hello, Hey, I'm
Speaker 1: looking for Nate. Yeah, that's just him. Any name, My
Speaker 1: name's Jeff from the radio show Broken Jeffrey in the Morning.
Speaker 1: How you doing, ma'am. I'm doing all right. Let's let's up.
Speaker 1: We're doing a segment called a second date update. Have
Speaker 1: you ever heard of that before? Do you know Brooken
Speaker 1: Jeffrey in the morning. Unfortunately I have not. Thank you
Speaker 1: for adding the unfortunately. Yeah, that helps my ego. The
Speaker 1: way that it works the second ad update is if
Speaker 1: you go out with someone and afterwards, if that person
Speaker 1: isn't calling you back, you can email us and we'll
Speaker 1: reach out to them for you to help you figure
Speaker 1: out the reason why. Oh wow, okay, this is different.
Speaker 1: I did not expect that. Okay, Well that's the point.
Speaker 1: By different, you mean fun. Yeah, it means that somebody
Speaker 1: really likes you. Okay, I mean, I'm sorry. I just
Speaker 1: this is definitely not what I expected. Do you have
Speaker 1: any thoughts on who might be calling trying to get
Speaker 1: a hold of you? I can give you a hint,
Speaker 1: give it away? Wait, what is going on right now? Okay,
Speaker 1: that didn't give it away. Maybe it wasn't as big
Speaker 1: of a moment as we think. I guess not. We're
Speaker 1: talking about Ivy now, I know what you're talking about.
Speaker 1: When you do that, there we go. Yeah, so she
Speaker 1: told you about the day and she even mentioned that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: seems like it was a focal point. Yeah. Yeah, because
Speaker 1: we ask everybody to like give us as much detail
Speaker 1: as you can anything that may have gone wrong in
Speaker 1: your mind, We want to know about it. Did she how?
Speaker 1: You guys like why she even did that? She didn't
Speaker 1: really tell me much. Yeah, why she fake choked? Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean she said that she did it because there
Speaker 1: was kind of an awkward moment of silence and she
Speaker 1: wanted to break the tension with a funny joke. She
Speaker 1: said it got kind of quiet. She thought it was
Speaker 1: a good idea to pretend that she's choking, And you
Speaker 1: guys didn't like, Well, we thought it was weird. Yeah,
Speaker 1: it wasn't a decision that any of us would make.
Speaker 1: But she's got a weird, quirky sense of humor. I
Speaker 1: don't know. I mean I might do that same thing
Speaker 1: in a similar situation. You've never faked a near death
Speaker 1: experience just to get out of something awkward. I mean
Speaker 1: I would jump over the table. I didn't think it
Speaker 1: was like, let's save the composition type of move. But
Speaker 1: is that the reason you're not calling her back? No? Okay, Well,
Speaker 1: if that's not If that's not the reason that you're
Speaker 1: not calling her back, let's move forward, Like what is it?
Speaker 1: How could be something other than what else happened that
Speaker 1: was a turn off to you. Well, I go to
Speaker 1: the bathroom out of the the way out to leave because
Speaker 1: I had to watch my hands, and I get in
Speaker 1: the car and I'm looking at the radio. I have
Speaker 1: all of my preset radio stations are changed. And it's
Speaker 1: not like the car like you know, because sometimes when
Speaker 1: if a car has like a power surge, everything might
Speaker 1: be set. But everything was normal. It was just that
Speaker 1: all of my radio stations were changed. So you aren't
Speaker 1: calling her back because she changed your presets? Is I mean?
Speaker 1: Is that what you're saying? Pretty much? Yeah, because like
Speaker 1: hear me out, you pretend to choke, but then it's like, haha,
Speaker 1: it's just choking. It's like, okay, all right, you change
Speaker 1: my radio stations and you don't say a thing that's
Speaker 1: not a joke, you know, like, oh, how do you
Speaker 1: know that she was the one that changed him? How
Speaker 1: do you know it wasn't like the power searge thing
Speaker 1: like you were saying, Well, because the clock would have
Speaker 1: been at midnight, at midnight or something. Pretty good detective.
Speaker 1: Why didn't you? I mean, you get back into the
Speaker 1: car and she's sitting there, and you notice their change.
Speaker 1: Why don't you say anything? First of all, I'm taken
Speaker 1: back by that a little bit, and I'm also waiting
Speaker 1: for her to clue me in that this is a joke.
Speaker 1: But she never did. I also, usually with someone praying somebody,
Speaker 1: they follow up with it. When did you get it?
Speaker 1: Did you listen to a good radio station though on
Speaker 1: your way back? I don't want to offend you, guys,
Speaker 1: but I don't I've never heard of you, or I
Speaker 1: don't know what the station you can end? Okay, so
Speaker 1: we didn't make any of the precepts. Apparently this is
Speaker 1: an awkward moment. I don't know what to do with
Speaker 1: myself here. I get out of this joke. Maybe I
Speaker 1: should just get out of this by telling you that
Speaker 1: Ivy's on the other line listening. Oh man, what are you?
Speaker 1: What are you talking about? Ivy is actually on the
Speaker 1: other line. She's been listening to this entire conversation. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I'm here. So you're seriously that piff about me changing
Speaker 1: your radio station. I wouldn't say that. I'm angry about it.
Speaker 1: It's just kind of weird, Like, let's just pretend that
Speaker 1: we never experienced the choking at the table. We get
Speaker 1: in the car, all my radio stations are and it's
Speaker 1: not even a joke. So if this is the first date,
Speaker 1: imagine what things might be for six months on the line. Well,
Speaker 1: we don't know that, mate. Look, I mean I vee.
Speaker 1: Was it a joke? No, it wasn't a joke because
Speaker 1: radio stations just look Okay, he doesn't listen to us.
Speaker 1: So I kind of agree. I mean, coming off of
Speaker 1: the choking thing, I think changing the radio stations is
Speaker 1: pretty tame and comparis It's like, why do you not
Speaker 1: know how to change them? Back? Is that what the
Speaker 1: deal is? Met? But why should I have to do that?
Speaker 1: It's my car. One of those rules like don't touch
Speaker 1: someone's radio unless you're the driving. Yeah, I mean I
Speaker 1: kind of get that. I think I think nature sounds
Speaker 1: a little bit confused about why you did this. It
Speaker 1: is a good question. It was just so I'm waiting
Speaker 1: for him in the car and he had on some
Speaker 1: station it was like wrap and I was like no,
Speaker 1: So I pushed through all his presets and like none
Speaker 1: of them were good most of them are like news
Speaker 1: stations like talk radio. Okay, okay, I mean I don't
Speaker 1: thank you to decide what he likes a little bit,
Speaker 1: judg Yeah, yeah, he's at an age where like he's
Speaker 1: not going to go seek out options, you know what
Speaker 1: I mean, Like you have to present him with new
Speaker 1: things for him. Are you insulting these ages? Just to
Speaker 1: give it a little context as to why this is
Speaker 1: weird to me, I just ran in for just a minute.
Speaker 1: I have sixteen preset radio stations. I mean she changed
Speaker 1: all of them. That's actually she's pretty good with her hands,
Speaker 1: mate dial, But I mean one of the stations they
Speaker 1: changed with two you guys, I just think that, like
Speaker 1: maybe you just owe him a quick apology for overstepping
Speaker 1: your bounds, and you guys as the radio station, I
Speaker 1: need to really apologize for changing his station. I guess
Speaker 1: if you guys really believe that, maybe I should just
Speaker 1: take you off my preset. No, no, no, you could
Speaker 1: change this stadia. He doesn't listen, so I don't care.
Speaker 1: That's good, Jeff, Okay, let's just wrap this up up. Nate.
Speaker 1: We want to send you out with IVY one more time.
Speaker 1: We'll pay for it. What was that a good strategy
Speaker 1: to prank the awkwardness? Yeah, Nate, this is probably one
Speaker 1: of the weirdest phone calls. Thank you. I don't know.
Speaker 1: I thought we earned our way onto his presets all
Speaker 1: by ourselves. I think so too. So that's a no, then, Nate,
Speaker 1: that's definitely no. Ivy, thanks for looking out for us.
Speaker 1: I tried. Yeah, well we two kind of well, hopefully
Speaker 1: we earned a new listener. Nate. I'm wondering if this
Speaker 1: is your guys marketing strategy. We are ye, I can
Speaker 1: changed some guy stations. You not smart enough for that
Speaker 1: broken Jeffrey in the morning.
