<v Speaker 5>Well.

0:00:51.000 --> 0:00:53.000
<v Speaker 2>If you ever run out of the Second Date Podcast,

0:00:53.120 --> 0:00:54.880
<v Speaker 2>we do a full show hour over on our main

0:00:54.920 --> 0:00:56.920
<v Speaker 2>podcast as well, which is just Brooke and Jeffrey.

0:00:59.320 --> 0:00:59.880
<v Speaker 1>listening to it.

0:01:00.120 --> 0:01:02.360
<v Speaker 4>And this is proof that listening to us it doesn't

0:01:02.360 --> 0:01:03.280
<v Speaker 4>mean you give people to it.

0:01:06.720 --> 0:01:08.920
<v Speaker 3>For yourself. I'm on the showye the.

0:01:10.480 --> 0:01:12.440
<v Speaker 2>We're going to start your brand new closure call on

0:01:12.480 --> 0:01:14.160
<v Speaker 2>your second day podcast right now.

0:01:15.800 --> 0:01:19.640
<v Speaker 3>I've heard. The farther you get into a relationship, the

0:01:19.760 --> 0:01:23.960
<v Speaker 3>harder it is to break up. That's true, because then

0:01:24.000 --> 0:01:28.160
<v Speaker 3>you have to have a long conversation about why it's ending,

0:01:28.520 --> 0:01:32.000
<v Speaker 3>and how it's not your fault. I outgrew you, it's

0:01:32.160 --> 0:01:36.080
<v Speaker 3>my fault for growing. And who's going to get custody

0:01:36.080 --> 0:01:39.360
<v Speaker 3>of the passwords to which streaming services? I call it

0:01:39.400 --> 0:01:39.720
<v Speaker 3>to be.

0:01:42.160 --> 0:01:44.520
<v Speaker 1>Like the free Wood I get it.

0:01:45.520 --> 0:01:47.920
<v Speaker 3>I just give one out an hour. Bro See already

0:01:47.960 --> 0:01:50.000
<v Speaker 3>Brooke and I are butting heads on this because it's

0:01:50.080 --> 0:01:53.880
<v Speaker 3>not an easy conversation, but it's what you have to do.

0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:56.600
<v Speaker 3>You can never break up. No, and one of our

0:01:56.640 --> 0:01:59.520
<v Speaker 3>listeners feels like he did not get the respect he

0:01:59.600 --> 0:02:03.160
<v Speaker 3>deserves when after months of dating, his girlfriend just sent

0:02:03.280 --> 0:02:08.040
<v Speaker 3>him one short text that completely blindsided him, and all

0:02:08.080 --> 0:02:10.920
<v Speaker 3>he really wants his answers. So we're gonna try to

0:02:10.960 --> 0:02:13.520
<v Speaker 3>help him with that in a brand new closure call

0:02:13.760 --> 0:02:18.639
<v Speaker 3>that's coming up right after this. Well, well, well look

0:02:18.680 --> 0:02:22.840
<v Speaker 3>who came crawling back? One of our listeners who needs

0:02:22.880 --> 0:02:24.160
<v Speaker 3>our help once again?

0:02:24.440 --> 0:02:27.519
<v Speaker 2>Is this a collect call from a jail cell with

0:02:27.680 --> 0:02:28.400
<v Speaker 2>the music?

0:02:28.840 --> 0:02:30.720
<v Speaker 3>It's a guy named Nick and the last time he

0:02:30.840 --> 0:02:32.679
<v Speaker 3>was on with us, he was trying to lock down

0:02:32.680 --> 0:02:38.240
<v Speaker 3>a second date with a lady cop. Oh this was yesterday, Brook, Well.

0:02:39.040 --> 0:02:41.600
<v Speaker 1>If you don't remember totally, remember that, Nick.

0:02:41.720 --> 0:02:43.400
<v Speaker 3>No, it was a few months ago, but you might

0:02:43.400 --> 0:02:45.960
<v Speaker 3>remember if you do listen. The reason he wasn't getting

0:02:45.960 --> 0:02:49.520
<v Speaker 3>a call back was his date used her police connections

0:02:49.800 --> 0:02:54.040
<v Speaker 3>to dig deep into Knick's personal history. That alone led

0:02:54.080 --> 0:02:57.480
<v Speaker 3>to drama aside from the information she found out, So

0:02:57.520 --> 0:02:58.839
<v Speaker 3>they ended up not going out.

0:02:59.000 --> 0:02:59.840
<v Speaker 1>I remember that one now.

0:03:00.040 --> 0:03:03.639
<v Speaker 3>But after our call, according to our producer, Nick jumped

0:03:03.720 --> 0:03:09.120
<v Speaker 3>quickly back into another relationship with a different woman named Brenda,

0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:12.880
<v Speaker 3>and apparently now he needs some help with a closure

0:03:13.000 --> 0:03:13.880
<v Speaker 3>call from us.

0:03:14.080 --> 0:03:17.679
<v Speaker 1>Interesting. Oh I thought we were doing this second date.

0:03:17.880 --> 0:03:18.120
<v Speaker 6>Yeah?

0:03:18.160 --> 0:03:20.360
<v Speaker 3>Well, Nick, first, welcome back to the show.

0:03:21.440 --> 0:03:22.760
<v Speaker 6>Hey, thanks for having me back.

0:03:22.880 --> 0:03:26.040
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Brooke did not want to, but that's okay. We

0:03:26.960 --> 0:03:29.920
<v Speaker 3>voted against her three to one and decided we're allowing

0:03:29.960 --> 0:03:34.079
<v Speaker 3>you back on the show. Remember voting. So tell us

0:03:34.520 --> 0:03:37.440
<v Speaker 3>about this girl Brenda that you were dating, our dating.

0:03:37.480 --> 0:03:40.000
<v Speaker 3>What's the situation there, so as you as.

0:03:39.880 --> 0:03:43.120
<v Speaker 6>You mentioned, like after I, you know, had my experience

0:03:43.120 --> 0:03:45.800
<v Speaker 6>with Lady cop uh huh, I hopped back on the hinge.

0:03:46.040 --> 0:03:50.320
<v Speaker 6>I met Brenda. Okay, good for about two months. We've

0:03:50.320 --> 0:03:53.120
<v Speaker 6>been going strong. It was so good that on our

0:03:53.160 --> 0:03:57.320
<v Speaker 6>second hinge date, we decided to both delete our respective

0:03:57.400 --> 0:03:58.560
<v Speaker 6>Hinge account.

0:03:58.600 --> 0:03:59.640
<v Speaker 1>On the second day.

0:04:00.280 --> 0:04:01.360
<v Speaker 3>Did you guys do it together?

0:04:01.680 --> 0:04:01.800
<v Speaker 7>Like?

0:04:01.840 --> 0:04:02.080
<v Speaker 6>Why?

0:04:02.200 --> 0:04:02.680
<v Speaker 1>Like two?

0:04:05.600 --> 0:04:07.240
<v Speaker 3>Well, you didn't push it. What's going on?

0:04:09.480 --> 0:04:13.240
<v Speaker 2>I think it was just my phone message updating on

0:04:13.360 --> 0:04:14.320
<v Speaker 2>new iOS.

0:04:14.760 --> 0:04:17.200
<v Speaker 3>Okay, that's a big move, though, it's a delete hinge

0:04:17.440 --> 0:04:18.160
<v Speaker 3>big moves.

0:04:18.160 --> 0:04:21.159
<v Speaker 6>And we've also, you know, the friend groups have started

0:04:21.160 --> 0:04:24.040
<v Speaker 6>to meet. So I met her friend, she met my friends.

0:04:24.080 --> 0:04:26.200
<v Speaker 6>That was a big thing.

0:04:26.520 --> 0:04:29.120
<v Speaker 1>I can't tell if you're excited or you're mad right now.

0:04:29.440 --> 0:04:32.000
<v Speaker 6>Well, I'm excited because all of this is really great.

0:04:32.040 --> 0:04:34.640
<v Speaker 6>But then I get a text message six nights ago

0:04:34.680 --> 0:04:37.359
<v Speaker 6>that just says I can't see you anymore.

0:04:38.920 --> 0:04:42.479
<v Speaker 1>No, I think that is so rude.

0:04:42.880 --> 0:04:45.719
<v Speaker 6>Yeah again, like we've been seeing each other for two months.

0:04:45.760 --> 0:04:48.719
<v Speaker 6>You don't text someone I can't see you. You know,

0:04:48.839 --> 0:04:50.320
<v Speaker 6>this isn't casual anymore.

0:04:50.800 --> 0:04:53.640
<v Speaker 1>Give a reason in the text, or just do it

0:04:53.680 --> 0:04:56.719
<v Speaker 1>in person. Why is everyone so scared to talk to anyone?

0:04:57.000 --> 0:05:10.920
<v Speaker 1>You give me a QR code.

0:05:05.960 --> 0:05:06.480
<v Speaker 2>Breaking up.

0:05:07.240 --> 0:05:09.279
<v Speaker 3>We can't see each other. So the way you're saying,

0:05:09.480 --> 0:05:12.080
<v Speaker 3>that happened completely out of the blue. There's nothing that

0:05:12.120 --> 0:05:14.320
<v Speaker 3>you had sent to her right before that that could

0:05:14.320 --> 0:05:16.200
<v Speaker 3>have prompted that response. No.

0:05:16.360 --> 0:05:21.240
<v Speaker 6>In fact, we were making plans for the weekend. So

0:05:21.320 --> 0:05:24.520
<v Speaker 6>then it was quiet for about an hour. I was like, Okay, well,

0:05:24.520 --> 0:05:27.480
<v Speaker 6>maybe she's doing something. And then I get a message

0:05:27.600 --> 0:05:28.680
<v Speaker 6>I can't see you anymore.

0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:31.279
<v Speaker 1>Did Lady Cop contact her and give her your wrap sheet?

0:05:33.000 --> 0:05:34.080
<v Speaker 6>She better not have.

0:05:37.160 --> 0:05:39.359
<v Speaker 3>The bigger problem. Okay, So you want to do a

0:05:39.400 --> 0:05:42.880
<v Speaker 3>closure call, obviously to figure out why Brenda sent you

0:05:42.920 --> 0:05:44.520
<v Speaker 3>that text. But I feel like we need to learn

0:05:44.520 --> 0:05:47.160
<v Speaker 3>a little bit more about her, Like tell us about

0:05:47.240 --> 0:05:49.520
<v Speaker 3>who she is, like what her personality is, Like.

0:05:50.200 --> 0:05:53.000
<v Speaker 6>Uh, well, she's not a lady Cop. She doesn't spy

0:05:53.080 --> 0:05:54.239
<v Speaker 6>on me, so that's great.

0:05:54.800 --> 0:05:57.040
<v Speaker 1>Okay, yeah, what do you like about her?

0:05:57.520 --> 0:06:00.360
<v Speaker 6>So we have a very similar sense of humor. I

0:06:00.360 --> 0:06:03.320
<v Speaker 6>have a pretty dark sense of humor, sarcasm, things like that,

0:06:03.720 --> 0:06:05.920
<v Speaker 6>And I think that on the first date there was

0:06:06.000 --> 0:06:08.560
<v Speaker 6>definitely a lot of physical chemistry. I mean, I don't

0:06:08.600 --> 0:06:11.240
<v Speaker 6>want to tell tales out of school. But you know, definitely,

0:06:11.279 --> 0:06:13.800
<v Speaker 6>like very early on in our relationship, we could definitely

0:06:13.839 --> 0:06:16.800
<v Speaker 6>sense like the physical part was not going to be

0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:19.679
<v Speaker 6>a challenge, but then all the other stuff was there.

0:06:19.720 --> 0:06:23.560
<v Speaker 6>So the humor, her friends are awesome, she seemed to

0:06:23.640 --> 0:06:25.000
<v Speaker 6>like my friends as well.

0:06:25.200 --> 0:06:25.560
<v Speaker 1>Sucks.

0:06:25.600 --> 0:06:28.720
<v Speaker 2>It sounds like you were really excited about this relationship.

0:06:29.440 --> 0:06:32.479
<v Speaker 6>Yeah, exactly, And so that's why it's a little confusing

0:06:32.520 --> 0:06:35.000
<v Speaker 6>because at first I thought she might have been joking

0:06:35.080 --> 0:06:37.880
<v Speaker 6>when she said that, but no, no responses.

0:06:38.279 --> 0:06:40.840
<v Speaker 2>Are you wanting to give it another chance? Or like

0:06:40.960 --> 0:06:44.360
<v Speaker 2>if she came back and it was some miscommunication or something,

0:06:44.600 --> 0:06:45.880
<v Speaker 2>or are you done?

0:06:46.080 --> 0:06:48.039
<v Speaker 6>I would be open to it. But this is a

0:06:48.040 --> 0:06:50.839
<v Speaker 6>big red flag. Just getting a text message that says

0:06:50.920 --> 0:06:53.800
<v Speaker 6>like it's over, So I would like to one know

0:06:53.960 --> 0:06:56.640
<v Speaker 6>why it's over, and two like if there's a way

0:06:56.680 --> 0:06:58.960
<v Speaker 6>for us to repair. Yeah, but my spidy sense is

0:06:59.080 --> 0:07:01.560
<v Speaker 6>up because something's not cool if she's just sending a

0:07:01.560 --> 0:07:04.000
<v Speaker 6>message breaking up with me.

0:07:04.600 --> 0:07:07.000
<v Speaker 3>And the thing is with this segment. Normally, the way

0:07:07.040 --> 0:07:09.880
<v Speaker 3>we do closure calls is by sending the other person

0:07:09.960 --> 0:07:13.200
<v Speaker 3>an email with four questions in it, waiting for them

0:07:13.240 --> 0:07:15.760
<v Speaker 3>to write back and hopefully get their permission to say

0:07:15.760 --> 0:07:16.400
<v Speaker 3>it on the air.

0:07:16.720 --> 0:07:19.560
<v Speaker 2>This is usually something where we go deep into people's history.

0:07:19.560 --> 0:07:20.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean this is so recent.

0:07:20.960 --> 0:07:23.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, that's why we're not gonna do it that way.

0:07:23.320 --> 0:07:25.960
<v Speaker 3>This time. We're gonna call Brenda directly.

0:07:26.160 --> 0:07:27.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh and just ask.

0:07:27.720 --> 0:07:30.679
<v Speaker 3>Her all the questions we need to right now, live

0:07:30.720 --> 0:07:31.240
<v Speaker 3>on the air.

0:07:31.280 --> 0:07:32.160
<v Speaker 1>Okay, does she know?

0:07:33.280 --> 0:07:36.440
<v Speaker 3>She does not know. We're gonna blindside her, just like

0:07:36.520 --> 0:07:39.640
<v Speaker 3>our boy got blindsided with that random text message. So

0:07:39.680 --> 0:07:40.240
<v Speaker 3>we hope she.

0:07:40.360 --> 0:07:41.880
<v Speaker 1>Picks up, or we're just gonna try to call her

0:07:41.880 --> 0:07:42.680
<v Speaker 1>every day until she does.

0:07:42.800 --> 0:07:45.920
<v Speaker 3>It could be eight minutes of NonStop calls and hanging

0:07:45.960 --> 0:07:48.640
<v Speaker 3>off and trying again. We'll find out when we come

0:07:48.680 --> 0:07:52.080
<v Speaker 3>back and attempt to do an in person closure call

0:07:52.160 --> 0:07:55.360
<v Speaker 3>right after this for just joining us. We're in the

0:07:55.360 --> 0:07:59.200
<v Speaker 3>middle of a closure call, and we've never quite done

0:07:59.240 --> 0:08:02.240
<v Speaker 3>it like this for no, because normally we're reaching out

0:08:02.280 --> 0:08:05.320
<v Speaker 3>to people who haven't spoken to one another in years,

0:08:06.040 --> 0:08:09.760
<v Speaker 3>sometimes for decades, trying to figure out what happened between them,

0:08:10.200 --> 0:08:14.120
<v Speaker 3>uncover any missing information about why that person isn't in

0:08:14.200 --> 0:08:17.480
<v Speaker 3>their lives anymore, and bring them some long needed closure

0:08:17.560 --> 0:08:20.320
<v Speaker 3>about it. Okay, but this is different. Because it happened.

0:08:20.360 --> 0:08:24.960
<v Speaker 3>Just six days ago, our listener Nick got a text

0:08:24.960 --> 0:08:27.080
<v Speaker 3>from a woman named Brenda. This is a woman who

0:08:27.080 --> 0:08:28.960
<v Speaker 3>he's been dating for a couple months.

0:08:29.040 --> 0:08:29.720
<v Speaker 1>Exclicitly.

0:08:30.080 --> 0:08:33.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and the text just said I can't see you anymore.

0:08:33.840 --> 0:08:35.959
<v Speaker 1>Right before there'supposed to go on a weekend trip together.

0:08:36.120 --> 0:08:39.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, no explanation, no lead up to it, not even

0:08:39.640 --> 0:08:42.760
<v Speaker 3>nice little evite card with little dancing people to make

0:08:42.800 --> 0:08:46.720
<v Speaker 3>it a little bit softer, easier to digest. And he's

0:08:46.760 --> 0:08:50.000
<v Speaker 3>tried multiple ways to contact her and figure out why.

0:08:50.080 --> 0:08:53.320
<v Speaker 3>So he's got nothing, And now we're gonna step in

0:08:53.400 --> 0:08:56.600
<v Speaker 3>and try to help by just calling Brenda directly for

0:08:56.800 --> 0:08:58.600
<v Speaker 3>a in person closure call.

0:08:58.800 --> 0:09:01.040
<v Speaker 1>So I have a quick question. We haven't done this before.

0:09:01.400 --> 0:09:03.839
<v Speaker 2>Do we have pre prepared questions that we're going to

0:09:03.920 --> 0:09:05.520
<v Speaker 2>go through like we normally would.

0:09:05.640 --> 0:09:08.080
<v Speaker 3>That's a good question, Brook. Do you have them ready?

0:09:08.640 --> 0:09:08.840
<v Speaker 5>Oh?

0:09:09.000 --> 0:09:12.719
<v Speaker 3>No, because you should have been working on something.

0:09:13.200 --> 0:09:15.200
<v Speaker 1>I can figure it out. I guess I did nothing.

0:09:15.280 --> 0:09:16.199
<v Speaker 3>You're going to wing it?

0:09:16.280 --> 0:09:17.800
<v Speaker 2>And then are we going to call him in on

0:09:17.840 --> 0:09:19.560
<v Speaker 2>the call like we do second dates or is he

0:09:19.640 --> 0:09:20.840
<v Speaker 2>going to be silent the whole time?

0:09:20.960 --> 0:09:23.600
<v Speaker 3>I think if we want Brenda to stay on the phone.

0:09:23.679 --> 0:09:28.240
<v Speaker 3>We probably should try and talk to her alone first. Okay,

0:09:28.440 --> 0:09:30.520
<v Speaker 3>I know, Nick, it sounds like you don't like the

0:09:30.559 --> 0:09:30.960
<v Speaker 3>sound of that.

0:09:31.080 --> 0:09:34.760
<v Speaker 6>Nick, No, I bring me on. I'm just really curious

0:09:34.800 --> 0:09:36.880
<v Speaker 6>to hear what she has to say. That's a bottom line.

0:09:36.920 --> 0:09:38.839
<v Speaker 3>Right now, let's see what happens. I'm just going to

0:09:38.920 --> 0:09:41.520
<v Speaker 3>dial her number. We have to dial it four, ten,

0:09:41.640 --> 0:09:43.600
<v Speaker 3>twenty times until she picks up. We're going to do

0:09:43.640 --> 0:09:47.280
<v Speaker 3>whatever it takes to get you closure. Okay, Nick, thank you?

0:09:48.240 --> 0:09:51.080
<v Speaker 3>Right so formal, I know, so serious, but here we go.

0:09:51.320 --> 0:10:02.959
<v Speaker 3>I'm calling right now. Hello, Hey is this Brenda?

0:10:04.240 --> 0:10:04.640
<v Speaker 1>This is she?

0:10:05.360 --> 0:10:05.480
<v Speaker 6>Hey.

0:10:05.840 --> 0:10:07.400
<v Speaker 3>Sorry to be really excited there for a second. I

0:10:07.400 --> 0:10:11.080
<v Speaker 3>just wasn't sure you're gonna pick up. We're who uh

0:10:11.240 --> 0:10:12.880
<v Speaker 3>now we're You're on the radio right now with a

0:10:12.880 --> 0:10:14.319
<v Speaker 3>show called Brook and Jeffrey in the Morning.

0:10:15.800 --> 0:10:18.640
<v Speaker 1>Oh, good morning, Hi Brenda.

0:10:19.240 --> 0:10:21.880
<v Speaker 5>Good morning. What can I do for you?

0:10:21.880 --> 0:10:24.440
<v Speaker 3>You could answer a few questions that we have for

0:10:24.480 --> 0:10:28.440
<v Speaker 3>you because we're doing this segment called closure Call, and uh,

0:10:28.679 --> 0:10:30.439
<v Speaker 3>it's actually the first time that we've done it with

0:10:30.520 --> 0:10:32.439
<v Speaker 3>someone uh.

0:10:33.120 --> 0:10:38.400
<v Speaker 1>Live and sounds like we talked to dead people. It's

0:10:38.480 --> 0:10:44.840
<v Speaker 1>usually send out, but oh it's moving. We decided to

0:10:44.840 --> 0:10:45.840
<v Speaker 1>call you instead.

0:10:46.760 --> 0:10:49.760
<v Speaker 5>I'm kind of in the dark over here. What are

0:10:49.800 --> 0:10:50.800
<v Speaker 5>you guys talking about?

0:10:50.920 --> 0:10:52.920
<v Speaker 3>Okay, well, maybe turn on a light switch if it's

0:10:52.920 --> 0:10:54.920
<v Speaker 3>a dark room, or can you do go to your window?

0:10:55.880 --> 0:10:57.240
<v Speaker 1>That is a waste of time.

0:10:57.360 --> 0:10:59.840
<v Speaker 3>Okay, get to it all right. I like the joke, Jeff.

0:11:00.720 --> 0:11:03.520
<v Speaker 3>I'll tell you. The reason why we're calling is because

0:11:03.720 --> 0:11:06.880
<v Speaker 3>a friend of the show, his name is Nick, is

0:11:06.960 --> 0:11:19.199
<v Speaker 3>bummed out. Okay, Well, he is upset, distraught even after

0:11:19.240 --> 0:11:22.120
<v Speaker 3>he got your text message recently saying we can't see

0:11:22.160 --> 0:11:22.560
<v Speaker 3>each other.

0:11:22.960 --> 0:11:26.920
<v Speaker 1>He just doesn't understand why he should know why.

0:11:29.000 --> 0:11:31.720
<v Speaker 3>A lot of women say that about the man they

0:11:31.720 --> 0:11:34.720
<v Speaker 3>should understand. But the thing about us is we're pretty clueless,

0:11:36.080 --> 0:11:38.520
<v Speaker 3>and that's why he's reached out to us for help.

0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:45.280
<v Speaker 5>There's no misunderstandings when you just lie, though, lie.

0:11:45.640 --> 0:11:49.000
<v Speaker 3>So you're saying that there was alleged lying in your relationship,

0:11:49.040 --> 0:11:50.720
<v Speaker 3>We don't know what that means. Would you be able

0:11:50.720 --> 0:11:51.840
<v Speaker 3>to elaborate a little bit?

0:11:52.640 --> 0:11:52.960
<v Speaker 5>You know what?

0:11:53.200 --> 0:11:53.480
<v Speaker 6>Sure?

0:11:54.920 --> 0:11:58.120
<v Speaker 5>So you know that we went out for two months, right, Yeah, Well,

0:11:58.320 --> 0:12:02.000
<v Speaker 5>we agreed to lead our hinge accounts and three weeks

0:12:02.040 --> 0:12:04.400
<v Speaker 5>in one of my girlfriends said she thought she saw

0:12:04.400 --> 0:12:06.520
<v Speaker 5>a guy on hinge that looked exactly like him.

0:12:07.960 --> 0:12:11.959
<v Speaker 2>We thought, or did, yeah, well, yeah, I mean all

0:12:12.080 --> 0:12:14.960
<v Speaker 2>Nicks look alike, right, we.

0:12:15.240 --> 0:12:19.440
<v Speaker 5>Shots right, but she didn't have the profile, and I

0:12:19.480 --> 0:12:22.360
<v Speaker 5>didn't really know what to do other than to ask

0:12:22.679 --> 0:12:25.679
<v Speaker 5>Nick about it right away, and he just denied it.

0:12:25.720 --> 0:12:28.160
<v Speaker 5>He said I was mistaken, his friend was my friend

0:12:28.200 --> 0:12:30.959
<v Speaker 5>was mistaken, and so, you know, I didn't really think

0:12:31.040 --> 0:12:33.000
<v Speaker 5>much about it. I trusted him and we moved on.

0:12:33.280 --> 0:12:37.839
<v Speaker 5>But forward to last week. It's been about two months

0:12:37.840 --> 0:12:40.800
<v Speaker 5>at this point, and my same friend said she saw

0:12:40.920 --> 0:12:43.439
<v Speaker 5>him again, and this time she took a screenshot.

0:12:44.320 --> 0:12:45.200
<v Speaker 1>Oh there's evidence.

0:12:46.120 --> 0:12:49.439
<v Speaker 5>It's so clearly him, Like these are new, updated photos.

0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:52.640
<v Speaker 5>I recognize the picture because I was literally with him

0:12:52.640 --> 0:12:53.680
<v Speaker 5>when one of them was taken.

0:12:53.840 --> 0:12:57.800
<v Speaker 3>Like, oh, your arm is like around his shoulder and

0:12:57.840 --> 0:12:59.079
<v Speaker 3>he like cropped you out of it.

0:12:59.440 --> 0:13:02.040
<v Speaker 5>I'm not in a photo, but it's the restaurant that

0:13:02.160 --> 0:13:04.160
<v Speaker 5>we went to, and it's the same clothing.

0:13:04.640 --> 0:13:07.320
<v Speaker 1>Y Oh wow, that must feel really bad.

0:13:07.720 --> 0:13:10.160
<v Speaker 3>But there are a lot of deep AI fakes, Brooks.

0:13:10.160 --> 0:13:12.880
<v Speaker 3>Some people like to borrow other people's photos to use

0:13:12.880 --> 0:13:14.679
<v Speaker 3>for their own. People do that with me all the time.

0:13:16.280 --> 0:13:17.720
<v Speaker 1>You're all over the day now.

0:13:17.679 --> 0:13:20.240
<v Speaker 3>And it's not me. It's just a way that people

0:13:20.320 --> 0:13:22.160
<v Speaker 3>want to use me for their benefit.

0:13:22.240 --> 0:13:24.560
<v Speaker 2>Because we've never had one listener say they came across

0:13:24.600 --> 0:13:27.080
<v Speaker 2>any of your profiles, because.

0:13:26.840 --> 0:13:31.960
<v Speaker 3>Our listeners are smart Brook, they know it's a fake funnier.

0:13:32.120 --> 0:13:36.400
<v Speaker 3>So let's look, there could be a misunderstanding here, and

0:13:36.480 --> 0:13:39.160
<v Speaker 3>you should at least talk to Nick while he's on

0:13:39.200 --> 0:13:41.320
<v Speaker 3>the other line listening, waiting to speak to you about

0:13:41.360 --> 0:13:43.880
<v Speaker 3>it before we call this relationship ended for good.

0:13:44.320 --> 0:13:48.240
<v Speaker 5>But he can't be on the line right now. He is.

0:13:48.720 --> 0:13:52.040
<v Speaker 3>I think he's still there something else.

0:13:52.080 --> 0:13:53.760
<v Speaker 1>Bus he's swiping through his other profile.

0:13:53.960 --> 0:13:54.720
<v Speaker 3>Nick, are you there?

0:13:55.720 --> 0:13:58.680
<v Speaker 6>I am here, and I'm glad that you brought this

0:13:58.880 --> 0:14:06.120
<v Speaker 6>up because you're not wrong. Wait, what I wish that

0:14:06.200 --> 0:14:08.880
<v Speaker 6>you had just come to me because there's.

0:14:08.760 --> 0:14:10.640
<v Speaker 1>Like a totally reasonable explanation.

0:14:11.360 --> 0:14:16.040
<v Speaker 6>What I heard from my friends is that you had

0:14:16.040 --> 0:14:19.040
<v Speaker 6>a profile that was still going up, and so I

0:14:19.120 --> 0:14:22.400
<v Speaker 6>created a profile so you would see that and then

0:14:22.480 --> 0:14:24.280
<v Speaker 6>come to me and be like, hey, I saw that.

0:14:24.440 --> 0:14:27.320
<v Speaker 5>Oh no no, no, no, no no no no guys, sorry, no, no.

0:14:27.200 --> 0:14:28.400
<v Speaker 1>That didn't even make sense.

0:14:28.680 --> 0:14:31.720
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, what you're saying is you heard a rumor that

0:14:31.760 --> 0:14:35.400
<v Speaker 3>she had a Hinge profile first, so he made one

0:14:35.520 --> 0:14:36.520
<v Speaker 3>to get back at her.

0:14:37.280 --> 0:14:39.080
<v Speaker 5>And why did you deny it when I asked you?

0:14:39.360 --> 0:14:41.840
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, screenshots.

0:14:42.280 --> 0:14:45.760
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean it just feels so classic cheater caught right,

0:14:45.880 --> 0:14:47.520
<v Speaker 2>like as soon as you catch it, cheeer like.

0:14:47.560 --> 0:14:49.080
<v Speaker 3>No, you were cheating, dad.

0:14:49.360 --> 0:14:52.240
<v Speaker 6>Look, this is just what my friend said. So I'm

0:14:52.280 --> 0:14:53.320
<v Speaker 6>just telling you what I heard.

0:14:53.800 --> 0:14:57.080
<v Speaker 5>I swear to you I have not been on Hinge

0:14:57.120 --> 0:15:01.000
<v Speaker 5>since we got together. And if you really want to

0:15:01.120 --> 0:15:02.760
<v Speaker 5>prove that I was on it, I want to see

0:15:02.760 --> 0:15:05.480
<v Speaker 5>that screenshot. Show me what I was able to show you,

0:15:06.240 --> 0:15:07.120
<v Speaker 5>because it doesn't.

0:15:06.920 --> 0:15:11.680
<v Speaker 3>Exist unless Brooke used your photo in order to catfish

0:15:11.720 --> 0:15:13.840
<v Speaker 3>men in order to lure them over to her place.

0:15:14.000 --> 0:15:15.600
<v Speaker 3>Because that does happen. We've learned.

0:15:15.720 --> 0:15:18.320
<v Speaker 2>Brenda, you do sound hot like I sound like I

0:15:18.360 --> 0:15:20.560
<v Speaker 2>would use your picture, but I don't have a profile either.

0:15:20.680 --> 0:15:23.320
<v Speaker 6>Okay, in the end, it really doesn't matter, because Brenda,

0:15:23.320 --> 0:15:25.240
<v Speaker 6>I really do want to forgive you for doing.

0:15:27.640 --> 0:15:31.240
<v Speaker 3>Wow, that's a big thing to do. Even though you

0:15:31.280 --> 0:15:34.640
<v Speaker 3>may have tried to get on the hinge once more,

0:15:34.880 --> 0:15:37.880
<v Speaker 3>He's willing to overlook that and try it again.

0:15:37.920 --> 0:15:43.000
<v Speaker 2>In your relationships, big man, Brenda, this is absolutely this

0:15:43.080 --> 0:15:43.840
<v Speaker 2>is unbelievable.

0:15:44.200 --> 0:15:45.680
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's amazing.

0:15:46.080 --> 0:15:47.120
<v Speaker 1>It is such classic.

0:15:47.360 --> 0:15:49.480
<v Speaker 2>I feel like you full uncheated now, the way that

0:15:49.520 --> 0:15:50.960
<v Speaker 2>he's handling this Brook.

0:15:51.000 --> 0:15:52.800
<v Speaker 6>You're supposed to be on my side here, I mean,

0:15:52.800 --> 0:15:54.480
<v Speaker 6>you're supoke down my back here. I'm a friend of

0:15:54.480 --> 0:15:54.840
<v Speaker 6>the show.

0:15:55.080 --> 0:15:59.080
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, with sketchy behavior. Man, the last time you're

0:15:59.080 --> 0:16:01.160
<v Speaker 2>on the show, a lady out at you for some

0:16:01.240 --> 0:16:02.520
<v Speaker 2>sort of I think he was divorced.

0:16:03.200 --> 0:16:03.600
<v Speaker 3>Divorce.

0:16:05.680 --> 0:16:12.600
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, you were married, now broke out.

0:16:12.880 --> 0:16:15.640
<v Speaker 3>Divorce might still be active, so it's probably not safe to.

0:16:15.560 --> 0:16:16.080
<v Speaker 6>Talk about it.

0:16:17.920 --> 0:16:21.120
<v Speaker 5>You know what, I knew. I knew that this was

0:16:21.160 --> 0:16:24.720
<v Speaker 5>too good to be true. We were boyfriend and girlfriend.

0:16:25.240 --> 0:16:28.400
<v Speaker 6>Listen. The bottom line is we both made mistakes. You

0:16:28.440 --> 0:16:31.280
<v Speaker 6>were and I was on hinge. We happened to be

0:16:31.320 --> 0:16:33.680
<v Speaker 6>on a hinge at different times, sometimes the same time.

0:16:35.080 --> 0:16:38.600
<v Speaker 6>Let's just move afted, you know, and get back together.

0:16:39.280 --> 0:16:42.240
<v Speaker 3>Wow, he's putting it all out on the table for

0:16:42.280 --> 0:16:45.480
<v Speaker 3>you there, Brenda. He's admitting that he's flawed. You're a

0:16:45.520 --> 0:16:48.720
<v Speaker 3>little flaws, but together your flaws make the perfect relationships.

0:16:48.760 --> 0:16:51.800
<v Speaker 1>That was one romantic speech. It was I was on hinge.

0:16:51.840 --> 0:16:54.600

<v Speaker 3>out of the woking Jeffrey in the morning. We've never

<v Speaker 3>Well No, I feel like that's out. What I mean,

0:18:00.520 --> 0:18:02.880
<v Speaker 3>I feel like we need to give Nick a one

0:18:03.040 --> 0:18:06.720
<v Speaker 3>year suspension before we have him back on the show again.

0:18:06.800 --> 0:18:08.199
<v Speaker 1>I see I thought you meant we should never have

0:18:08.240 --> 0:18:12.120
<v Speaker 1>a live closure call again. No, that was a hot Traine.

0:18:12.200 --> 0:18:15.120
<v Speaker 3>It was messy, but we got to the point of it. Clearly,

0:18:15.200 --> 0:18:17.320
<v Speaker 3>Nick is not in a great place right now.

0:18:17.920 --> 0:18:19.480
<v Speaker 1>Nick has a hard time being honest.

0:18:19.640 --> 0:18:23.280
<v Speaker 7>Yeah, it just doesn't sound like he's ready for a relationship,

0:18:23.600 --> 0:18:25.639
<v Speaker 7>and I don't know if we're ready for him, because

0:18:25.680 --> 0:18:29.159
<v Speaker 7>he's divorcing people, he's lying to other people, he's opening

0:18:29.240 --> 0:18:32.679
<v Speaker 7>up dating accounts while spying on other dating accounts to.

0:18:32.720 --> 0:18:35.560
<v Speaker 2>A radio station to act innocent like maybe he just

0:18:35.600 --> 0:18:37.280
<v Speaker 2>wants to Maybe he loves the show that much.

0:18:37.359 --> 0:18:39.879
<v Speaker 3>Maybe he could be calling us once a week if

0:18:39.920 --> 0:18:42.800
<v Speaker 3>we don't put the kabash on it. So Nick, I'm sorry, buddy,

<v Speaker 3>a year and it's.

<v Speaker 1>Only Jeff that loves you right now. I'm we're in

0:18:48.800 --> 0:18:49.879
<v Speaker 1>a hard spot right now.
