Speaker 1: Second date of date. Quick question for the room.
Speaker 2: Okay, if you're on a date with someone, yes, you
Speaker 2: think it's important that you spend a lot of face
Speaker 2: to face time with them? Or is it cool if
Speaker 2: you don't really hang out together for most of the time?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 4: Yeah, what's the point if you don't hang out together?
Speaker 3: Just?
Speaker 1: Yikes? I was hoping you wouldn't say that.
Speaker 2: What because one of our listeners, Morgan needs our help
Speaker 2: today after she went out with a guy and apparently
Speaker 2: spend about ninety percent of the time in completely different areas.
Speaker 2: Why some guys might find lots of space and no
Speaker 2: talking extremely attractive. So, Morgan, this might have worked in
Speaker 2: your favor. It sounds like my co hosts aren't a
Speaker 2: big fan of your dating strategy though.
Speaker 1: Sorry Morgan, Oh.
Speaker 5: My god, I don't know if I was either.
Speaker 4: I don't know, Morgan.
Speaker 1: I can't imagine someone being like, how was your date?
Speaker 4: Oh?
Speaker 1: It was great? I saw him for three minutes?
Speaker 5: What plane? Okay? Okay, So James and I met online?
Speaker 4: Okay.
Speaker 5: I really liked his profile. I felt like he just
Speaker 5: sort of had this like twinkle in his eye that
Speaker 5: I really liked.
Speaker 6: Way to describe someone Santa Claus.
Speaker 4: Why, yes, sure, yeah.
Speaker 5: He made some sort of comment. He said something like,
Speaker 5: I'm a social introvert ready to enjoy the city, and
Speaker 5: I don't know, I really like that. And we started chatting.
Speaker 5: So our schedules were really kind of tight and crazy
Speaker 5: and well, so some some backswhere. I actually I am
Speaker 5: a dancer on the side.
Speaker 1: And.
Speaker 4: That is not what she meant.
Speaker 5: Sorry, stat out, get the mind out of the gutter here.
Speaker 5: I'm a pro dancer and I was invited to perform
Speaker 5: with a few of my friends at this local Irish festival.
Speaker 4: Oh are you like an Irish dancer? Is that what
Speaker 4: you do?
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's one of the things that I do. Yeah,
Speaker 5: And I kind of thought, you know what, like maybe
Speaker 5: this is a great thing to invite James too, because
Speaker 5: it's something different cultural and it can kind of show
Speaker 5: him this different side of me that, you know, it's
Speaker 5: important to me.
Speaker 2: And he said himself, as an introvert, he wants to
Speaker 2: get out and see stuff and maybe Irish dancing is
Speaker 2: one of those things.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 5: So here's the thing though, my mom was in this
Speaker 5: big that she comes to the festival too. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 5: you know, she wanted to watch me, which I get
Speaker 5: and how could I say no to that?
Speaker 6: But it's like, Mom, I've been doing this for my
Speaker 6: whole life, Like do you really need to see this performance?
Speaker 5: So to get around it, I told James, I was like, okay,
Speaker 5: let's meet for a drink right before.
Speaker 6: Nothing like Irish dancing with a little bit of yeah alcoholic.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah, everybody dances better when they're a little bit tipsy.
Speaker 5: I do, that's right, Yeah, it's how the Irish do it,
Speaker 5: okay me. But it was like really brief. I mean
Speaker 5: we had one drink, I guzzled it down and then
Speaker 5: had to go okay.
Speaker 4: So you didn't get a lot of time with him
Speaker 4: at that point.
Speaker 5: No, So this is where like the real problem started.
Speaker 5: There was not really anywhere to stand, I guess. And
Speaker 5: I had introduced him to my mom right before I
Speaker 5: left to go, like, you know, to the backstage area,
Speaker 5: and he stood and he ended up standing and watched
Speaker 5: the show next to my mom. Is their mom flirting?
Speaker 1: Yeah that's what I want to know. What type of
Speaker 1: do you have.
Speaker 4: With a bar? But different?
Speaker 5: No, my mom's awesome. She's really awesome.
Speaker 2: She's very the type of mom that would be like
Speaker 2: grilling him with questions the entire time that.
Speaker 5: I am like positive, I can say, like, she's not
Speaker 5: types okay.
Speaker 4: So after the dance you go meet up with them.
Speaker 4: What's their vibe together? Are people happy?
Speaker 5: So that's where there's a problem. So we finished our
Speaker 5: number and instead of like just being done and getting
Speaker 5: to go back into the crowd, they like ushered us
Speaker 5: into this VIP tent where they wanted to do like
Speaker 5: pictures and meet and greets. And I had no idea
Speaker 5: that that was going to happen. And meanwhile, you know,
Speaker 5: James is waiting out there, and I felt bad.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, And.
Speaker 2: Even if you do get him into the tent, it's
Speaker 2: like you're taking pictures, you're busy right retally.
Speaker 5: So I found a brief moment that I texted him
Speaker 5: and I was like, I'm so sorry, I'll be out
Speaker 5: really soon, okay.
Speaker 4: And what did he say that?
Speaker 1: Did you respond? He's like, yeah, no problem, and me
Speaker 1: and your mom are having a great time. Don't come back.
Speaker 5: It ended up taking over an hour.
Speaker 4: Because I would have oh, I wouldn't have hung around either.
Speaker 5: I know. I at that point I kind of thought
Speaker 5: he would have left, but I did. I found James
Speaker 5: and my mom. They were still together.
Speaker 4: Oh well, over an hour with your mother.
Speaker 1: That's a good sign.
Speaker 2: If he stuck around long enough through all of that,
Speaker 2: that must mean he either really really likes you, or
Speaker 2: he really really likes your mom.
Speaker 6: Or he doesn't know how to say no and get
Speaker 6: out of social situation.
Speaker 1: That is a classic introvert.
Speaker 5: So I apologized profusely, and I mean, that's okay, Like
Speaker 5: I get it, it's okay. But and he was like,
Speaker 5: I can only stay another ten minutes. So it was
Speaker 5: like like we just basically chatted until he then had
Speaker 5: to leave. And and now of course he's not responding
Speaker 5: to my tex.
Speaker 1: And how long has it been since the festival.
Speaker 5: It's been like a week and half.
Speaker 4: Oh my god.
Speaker 6: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Yeah, what did your mom say about him?
Speaker 5: She loved it.
Speaker 4: Okay, that's a good sign.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Like I really would like to do like a redo. Yeah,
Speaker 5: you know, we'll do it more normal, like dinner in
Speaker 5: a movie or something.
Speaker 1: All right, well, let's get to work here.
Speaker 2: We're going to play a song, come back and call
Speaker 2: James to see how he felt about your date together
Speaker 2: with her mom. And if James doesn't answer, then we'll
Speaker 2: call your mom and ask her about James.
Speaker 1: Either way, we're getting some answers.
Speaker 2: Let me do your second date update, next second update.
Speaker 2: You know they say that you can tell a lot
Speaker 2: about a woman just by looking at her mom.
Speaker 1: Really, okay, haven't you heard that?
Speaker 4: Does that work the same for dads?
Speaker 2: No, I don't think it's it's just the mom's.
Speaker 1: Moms are a telescope into the future.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so dad's okay.
Speaker 1: Look, I know this.
Speaker 2: This is already way to start off a second date,
Speaker 2: but in this case it actually applies because Morgan's date,
Speaker 2: James spent most of the time hanging out with Morgan's mom. Yeah,
Speaker 2: and have an hour together, because Morgan was busy dancing
Speaker 2: and shaking hands up on stage and then behind the stage.
Speaker 2: The good thing is that her mom and James were
Speaker 2: getting along really well, thankfully.
Speaker 4: So says her mother. And the fact that he didn't leave.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's a good sign.
Speaker 2: And sorry, we may have asked you this already, Morgan,
Speaker 2: But your mom and dad are they still together?
Speaker 5: Yeah, they've been together for a long time.
Speaker 2: Okay, well, happily together.
Speaker 1: I should have.
Speaker 4: Said, thinking that the mom is moving in on her man.
Speaker 2: For me, it's a strange concept to have your mom
Speaker 2: get along with your date. But that just might be
Speaker 2: a reflection on my parents.
Speaker 5: Yeah, she's cool and she's happily married.
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, so really.
Speaker 5: Whatever you're thinking, don't think it because it's impossible.
Speaker 2: Okay, I'm gonna stop my thinking. What are you thinking?
Speaker 2: Why do you think James isn't calling?
Speaker 1: That's the question.
Speaker 5: I think that it's just because he was annoyed. He
Speaker 5: thinks that I wasted his time, which I feel bad
Speaker 5: I did waste his time. I mean he probably was
Speaker 5: just sort of like this girl is so self centered and.
Speaker 4: Yeah, totally.
Speaker 2: Well, we're just gonna talk James and interrogate him right
Speaker 2: off the bat.
Speaker 1: Let's do this.
Speaker 3: Hello.
Speaker 2: Oh oh he actually picked up. Actually, well this is James, right, Yeah, okay,
Speaker 2: now we can do it. Oh my god, wow, James,
Speaker 2: what's up?
Speaker 1: My man? You're on the radio now with Brook and
Speaker 1: Jeffrey in the morning. Whoa, whoa is right?
Speaker 3: I'm not sure what's going on.
Speaker 2: Okay, what's going on is we heard that you went
Speaker 2: out with one of our listeners name Morgan, the other day.
Speaker 3: This is really awkward. Well, you ask about her?
Speaker 6: I mean she actually feels pretty bad about your date.
Speaker 6: She didn't realize that she wouldn't be able to hang
Speaker 6: out with you for a whole hour.
Speaker 4: Like that's a long time, wasn't.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that was too bad. I was really looking forward
Speaker 3: to hanging out.
Speaker 1: She said the same thing about you.
Speaker 2: She really was hoping to get off the stage and
Speaker 2: back to you as quickly as possible, but it was
Speaker 2: totally out of her control.
Speaker 3: It was kind of weird too, because like her mom
Speaker 3: was there.
Speaker 1: Yeah, weird about that.
Speaker 6: Oh my god, we were all so she told us
Speaker 6: the story, and we were all shocked when she said
Speaker 6: that you were still hanging out with her mom at
Speaker 6: the end of all of this, Like we thought for
Speaker 6: sure you would have bailed. Nobody would have thought bad
Speaker 6: of you if you did.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you kind of got stuck there, huh.
Speaker 3: Yeah. And I mean I liked her mom. She was
Speaker 3: cool and honest and stuff. But after a half hour
Speaker 3: hanging out and learning all about Morgan's childhood, I started
Speaker 3: running out of stuff to say.
Speaker 1: The whole rundown for half an hour. Wait a minute,
Speaker 1: what do you mean by learning about her child the.
Speaker 4: Year zero to twelve or at thirteen? How far did you.
Speaker 3: Get into Well, she was just kind of saying like
Speaker 3: that she's always been this way since she was a kid,
Speaker 3: a little flaky.
Speaker 2: Oh she called her daughter slaky.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, and that was kind of crazy she said that,
Speaker 3: and I thoughd her. I mean, I said, yeah, maybe
Speaker 3: she's flaky, but she's nice and fun.
Speaker 6: I don't think flaky's the worst thing you could say
Speaker 6: about somebody, Like my best friend's super flaky.
Speaker 1: It is kind of crazy.
Speaker 2: Jane says, none has met her for all of two minutes,
Speaker 2: and now he's defending her.
Speaker 3: And then I said, is this a bad thing for
Speaker 3: me to pursue her? She's not ready for a relationship.
Speaker 6: Oh, so straight up asked her mom that the worst person.
Speaker 1: In her life. That's a good person to ask.
Speaker 3: Yeah. So her mom was like, it's up to you,
Speaker 3: but there are other options.
Speaker 1: She's trying to talk you out of dating her daughter.
Speaker 4: Hold on other options? What is she saying? What are
Speaker 4: the other options?
Speaker 3: Yeah? So that's when I got scared, because I thought
Speaker 3: she'd say herself yeah, but she brought up Morgan's younger
Speaker 3: sister Taylor.
Speaker 2: Oh, oh my gosh, what do you say to that about?
Speaker 1: Well, hold on, you guys, that is so low of
Speaker 1: a mother. You don't even know what happened.
Speaker 3: Well, she said to me that Taylor's single two and
Speaker 3: definitely won't flake on you.
Speaker 2: I mean, you got to get a photo of Taylor
Speaker 2: before you can make a final decision.
Speaker 1: That's inappropriate unless she's hot, Jasper picks.
Speaker 3: Yeah, she showed me and here's the pictures. And so
Speaker 3: I haven't met her sister yet, but her mom gave
Speaker 3: me her contact, and so you're going to do it? Yeah,
Speaker 3: I mean we might hang out this weekend. I don't know.
Speaker 2: Wow, no, wonder you're not calling Morgan back to set
Speaker 2: up another date that actually.
Speaker 4: Be worse, or have a date with both sisters on
Speaker 4: the book.
Speaker 1: Gosh, I know Morgan is a little bit of a flake.
Speaker 1: So I don't know if she's hung up by now.
Speaker 2: He's flaked out on this call, but she should be
Speaker 2: on the other line wanting.
Speaker 1: To talk to you. James.
Speaker 3: Oh man, what Yeah, that's how these works.
Speaker 1: Morgan, you're still there?
Speaker 5: No, I am here, and I'm literally about to burst.
Speaker 5: I don't even know what to say right now. I
Speaker 5: don't even know who to be met, my mom my
Speaker 5: sister are James.
Speaker 3: Like, well, hey, I mean you could have left the
Speaker 3: VP can't any time. I mean, your mom said this
Speaker 3: stuff happens all the time and said you're super late
Speaker 3: and never show. I don't know. I'm at this stage
Speaker 3: in my life where I need someone that's going to
Speaker 3: be there for me.
Speaker 5: This is my coll at this point. Okay, I did
Speaker 5: not know that I was going to be kept like that.
Speaker 5: I had no idea. I was told when the start
Speaker 5: this was going to be a ten minute thing. And
Speaker 5: I thought that you were the type of person that
Speaker 5: was such a go with the flow personality that could
Speaker 5: be cool enough to be like we'll hang out later.
Speaker 5: But clearly I get it now, Like I really get it.
Speaker 5: You stayed because my mom kept telling you more things
Speaker 5: about my sister, my cute little sister, and then you
Speaker 5: got more interested in her, and so then that's why
Speaker 5: you didn't leave, because you were like, yeah, tell me
Speaker 5: more about your sister.
Speaker 4: Your keeps getting higher.
Speaker 1: Has this ever happened to you before?
Speaker 2: Has has mom stolen one of your boyfriends and handed
Speaker 2: her off to the younger sister before?
Speaker 5: Never that she Yes?
Speaker 6: Okay, okay, wow, Morgan, obviously there was something going on
Speaker 6: and you need to have a conversation with your mom.
Speaker 4: But I don't think you can really blame him.
Speaker 6: Like if you were standing there with somebody's dad and
Speaker 6: the dad's like this guy sucks, you'd believe the dad.
Speaker 4: I mean, who wouldn't.
Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, she's known you longer than I have. I
Speaker 3: didn't know what to do.
Speaker 5: I mean, yeah, James, she's known me longer than you does.
Speaker 2: I really hate to bring this up, but weren't we
Speaker 2: supposed to do this call a week ago and then
Speaker 2: we had to reschedule because you had a conflict.
Speaker 4: Is that true?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 3: Wow, that's why.
Speaker 2: It's been a week and a half since we called.
Speaker 2: She really wanted to call after a few days. Isn't
Speaker 2: that right?
Speaker 1: Morgan?
Speaker 5: It's right. But I'm not Amma's gonna even like let
Speaker 5: that blow.
Speaker 6: Okay, Cairl, just own your flakiness.
Speaker 4: Okay, it's fine.
Speaker 5: I am not flaking. Okay, I don't even know what
Speaker 5: to do at this point. I have to call my mom,
Speaker 5: like immediately, and Kames, you better not see my sister.
Speaker 5: That's all I'm thinking of now, Like this is crossing
Speaker 5: the line?
Speaker 4: Are you still interested in James?
Speaker 5: No? But he's still not allowed to see my sister.
Speaker 4: Okay, so, James, that checks out.
Speaker 2: Normally, what we do here is I would offer to
Speaker 2: send you and Morgan out on another date, and we
Speaker 2: would pay for it. But what I'm gonna do instead
Speaker 2: is ask you to not see Morgan's sister, Oh thank god,
Speaker 2: and will give you money to not see her.
Speaker 3: Not.
Speaker 2: I mean, it's a gift card, but it still counts.
Speaker 1: What you say.
Speaker 3: Yeah, a gift card is nice. But I'm just gonna
Speaker 3: keep texting her, Are you kidding? I mean, I've already
Speaker 3: gone through all this. I may as well just see
Speaker 3: what happens now.
Speaker 1: Wow, doesn't work out?
Speaker 5: Oh my god, you know what, James, like mother like daughter.
Speaker 5: Let me tell you a little bit about my sister.
Speaker 3: Time.
Speaker 6: Freaking Jeffrey in the morning, be here, same time tomorrow
Speaker 6: because Morgan agreed yes to do an awkward Tuesday phone
Speaker 6: call with her mom. Oh my gosh, it's gonna be
Speaker 6: fireworks tomorrow at seven.
Speaker 4: Thirty freaking Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 1: You just heard it from Brooke.
Speaker 2: Morgan has agreed to come back on the show tomorrow
Speaker 2: to her mom in an awkward Tuesday phone calls.
Speaker 4: I'm freaking out, yeah, and.
Speaker 2: I heard her talking to our producer off the air,
Speaker 2: and she was saying, how could my mom do this
Speaker 2: to me?
Speaker 1: I can't believe it. I want to hear it from her.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what I was saying, and I'm not even her.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 2: She's having a hard time believing that this actually happened.
Speaker 2: The original plan was for me to confront my mom tomorrow,
Speaker 2: but we're gonna have to push that conversation back to
Speaker 2: a later time. Let somebody else confront their mother. It
Speaker 2: doesn't sound as fun, so don't miss it same time tomorrow.
Speaker 1: The drama will continue.
Speaker 2: If you missed any of today's second date update, we're
Speaker 2: gonna have it up online on Spotify or anywhere you
Speaker 2: get your podcasts at Brook and Jeffrey
Speaker 3: Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning
