Speaker 1: Oh man, I am so curious to see the comment
Speaker 1: section after you listen to the brand new Awkward Tuesday today.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, welcome to the Second Date podcast. Thank you
Speaker 1: so much for being here and just let us know.
Speaker 2: This is what I want. I think this is a
Speaker 2: really simple question.
Speaker 1: Is it okay to meet someone that you like at
Speaker 1: your own wedding?
Speaker 2: Your own I can't believe you're actually asking this.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: Remember we all got people at weddings. Yo, that's cool,
Speaker 4: but your wedding.
Speaker 2: Don't judge. Don't judge. You gotta hear her story.
Speaker 1: Okay, it's coming up in just a second, but first
Speaker 1: our comment section.
Speaker 5: Yeah, Ash said, my only request for my birthday this
Speaker 5: year was for my boyfriend to listen to Briock and
Speaker 5: Jeffrey with me. But we sit in silence and play
Speaker 5: games on our phone. You guys make me smile every day.
Speaker 5: Love from Australia's so great.
Speaker 2: All right, Well force him to listen to this one
Speaker 2: as well.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I hope you're listening to this together.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it starts right now.
Speaker 4: In all the years that we've been doing this show,
Speaker 4: and especially with this particular awkward segment, I don't think
Speaker 4: we've ever had a listener sound this nervous and this flustered.
Speaker 7: Yeah, as the woman on the phone did today.
Speaker 4: Yeah, all this anxiety came over a guy that she
Speaker 4: hasn't seen or spoken to for three years. Wow, So
Speaker 4: she knew she needed to take a little bit of
Speaker 4: a risk and take a little bit of our advice.
Speaker 7: Oh yeah, but it was.
Speaker 4: For sure one of the most entertaining phone calls we've
Speaker 4: ever had the pleasure of listening in on. That was
Speaker 4: our gift, and we're gonna give it back to you.
Speaker 4: You're gonna get to hear it in a brand new
Speaker 4: awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 3: Next, It's awkward.
Speaker 2: It's Tuesday.
Speaker 3: It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 4: When you think about the different types of people that
Speaker 4: you meet at a wedding, there's the constant crier, the
Speaker 4: overly flirtatious priest and always at least and the guy
Speaker 4: who thinks that maybe in another life he could have
Speaker 4: been a professional breakdancer.
Speaker 2: Oh yes, give me the worm again.
Speaker 4: He's so bendy.
Speaker 7: Wow.
Speaker 4: And that's just to name a few of them, because
Speaker 4: it's just a giant catalog of interesting characters and weddings,
Speaker 4: and maybe you meet one of the other guests, and
Speaker 4: you think, oh wow, that person's kind of cute, oh,
Speaker 4: kind of interesting.
Speaker 3: Always prospects.
Speaker 4: Oh yeah, that tie that he's wearing over his head sexy.
Speaker 3: Oh no, drunk.
Speaker 4: One of our listeners is looking to reconnect with somebody
Speaker 4: that she met at a wedding.
Speaker 7: Three years ago for just a brief moment.
Speaker 4: We don't know why it's taken her this long to
Speaker 4: go for it, but we do want to welcome Denise
Speaker 4: to the show.
Speaker 7: Denise, how you doing it?
Speaker 8: I'm well, how are you? Guys?
Speaker 1: How could anyone make that type of impact where for
Speaker 1: three years you're thinking about them?
Speaker 9: Yeah?
Speaker 8: I think I need to be more specific. It wasn't
Speaker 8: a wedding. It was my wedding.
Speaker 1: I know.
Speaker 2: Maybe she lost the groom and that's what she's talking about.
Speaker 4: Somebody other than the guy you were marrying.
Speaker 7: That's who.
Speaker 8: Oh yes, it's actually a business associate of my then fiance,
Speaker 8: So I know him, but I don't know him.
Speaker 6: Well, he's a business he's in business with your act.
Speaker 2: Before we start any of this, are you single right now?
Speaker 8: We've been separated a year, okay, And he has nothing
Speaker 8: to do with that. It has nothing to do with
Speaker 8: the guy.
Speaker 2: Nothing to do with you checking out other men during
Speaker 2: the wedding.
Speaker 4: At least it wasn't the overly flirtatious priest that you
Speaker 4: were interested in. So it's somebody who knows somebody.
Speaker 8: I met him in the reception line, and then later
Speaker 8: he pulled me aside and he was like, you, I
Speaker 8: wanted to tell you look stunning.
Speaker 2: That's what you say every Brian my wedding day, every
Speaker 2: single guest. Better tell me I look stunny. You should.
Speaker 8: I mean stunning the word itself. It was like a
Speaker 8: three minute conversation and like we weren't flirting the connection
Speaker 8: that we had.
Speaker 4: Oh okay, and we're talking this wedding or your wedding.
Speaker 4: That's the first time that you met him.
Speaker 8: Yes it is?
Speaker 2: Is it the only time you've met him?
Speaker 8: That's the only time I've met him.
Speaker 7: Wow, that's an impact.
Speaker 4: So this happened three years ago at your wedding. Why
Speaker 4: are you coming forward at this point now?
Speaker 9: Like?
Speaker 4: What was it about that interaction that you've never been
Speaker 4: able to forget?
Speaker 8: It was just a connection. He was able to joke
Speaker 8: with me, to connect. We had so much in common.
Speaker 8: It was very sudden and almost like disrupting.
Speaker 4: Okay, Brooke is clearly feeling a little bit skeptical about
Speaker 4: the whole situation.
Speaker 7: You can't see the face that she's making, but.
Speaker 2: I mean, are you wanting to call this guy? Is
Speaker 2: that who we're calling? In the awkward say?
Speaker 8: Yeah, Well, here's the thing. I had a friend at
Speaker 8: the wedding that I tried to hook up with him
Speaker 8: but it didn't end up going out. But she has
Speaker 8: his number and I just brought it up the other
Speaker 8: day and she was very encouraging. She was like, why not?
Speaker 8: He was this radio show that does this exact thing
Speaker 8: called Brook and Jeff Right.
Speaker 3: Well, so I haven't talked to him.
Speaker 6: We can call him and he's like, oh, I'm taking
Speaker 6: and the conversation is over.
Speaker 4: Sure are they close? Yeah?
Speaker 3: They still business together?
Speaker 9: No?
Speaker 8: No, no, no, okay.
Speaker 7: That's good.
Speaker 4: Actually, Brook Brook is still skeptical.
Speaker 7: Is it possible that this is a mess? Like, are
Speaker 7: we sure that this is the right time?
Speaker 1: That's exactly it it. I mean, it doesn't even sound
Speaker 1: like you're divorced yet. And I like, fine, date, do
Speaker 1: whatever you guys need to do. But like, like if
Speaker 1: I met a groom at a wedding and then only
Speaker 1: three years later he calls me and was like, hey,
Speaker 1: let's go out.
Speaker 2: I'd be like, you're nuts, no, thank you.
Speaker 8: It's indescribable.
Speaker 2: Indescribable.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I mean, they do say sometimes love can be messy,
Speaker 4: and I can't imagine it getting more messy than meeting
Speaker 4: the guy at your first wedding.
Speaker 8: Of course what a story.
Speaker 4: Yeah, but that doesn't mean it's not true love waiting
Speaker 4: to happen, right Brook, don't make that face.
Speaker 3: We believe.
Speaker 8: I do.
Speaker 1: I just I mean, I have thought many times that
Speaker 1: I was in love with different people and it turned
Speaker 1: out I wasn't you know after initial meetings, Like those
Speaker 1: first feelings, they can feel big and overwhelming, but they
Speaker 1: can also be made true.
Speaker 7: Why do you keep saying I don't understand.
Speaker 2: They could be a falsehood?
Speaker 7: Alexis, Where where's your head at? Alexis?
Speaker 2: What are red flags? But of course I'm down to
Speaker 2: call him for the drama.
Speaker 7: I mean, oh, this is a selfish wit. You want
Speaker 7: to do it?
Speaker 4: Yeah, But at the same time, Denise is in the
Speaker 4: middle of a separation. It could be kind of a
Speaker 4: sensitive time. She might be in at a fragile stage
Speaker 4: of her life. Is it really worth taking this risk.
Speaker 8: It's absolutely worth taking. I've been separated for a year. Time,
Speaker 8: let's go.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she so caragile.
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'll go after one of my ex husband's colleagues.
Speaker 2: I mean, what are you wanting to ask him?
Speaker 8: I don't know if he's ever What do I say? Like?
Speaker 8: Have you ever thought about me over the past few years?
Speaker 8: Like I've I don't know.
Speaker 4: Okay, you're but you do want to gauge like does
Speaker 4: he have a romantic interest in.
Speaker 7: You at all?
Speaker 8: Yeah?
Speaker 1: Okay, I mean I'm glad we're not calling this a
Speaker 1: second date update, because then we'd have to say.
Speaker 2: So you met this girl on the first date and
Speaker 2: she was the bride?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 7: Yeah, what did you think?
Speaker 8: I just know I need advice on this. It's gonna
Speaker 8: sound so weird if I just come out of the blue.
Speaker 4: Yeah, or it's gonna sound super romantic and meant to be. Uh.
Speaker 4: That's how we're gonna frame it when we come back.
Speaker 4: We'll give you some solid advice before you see if
Speaker 4: the guy that was at your wedding three years ago
Speaker 4: has any romantic interest in you now.
Speaker 2: He already knows what you look like in white.
Speaker 7: I guess Yeah, that's good.
Speaker 4: We'll do it with your awkward Tuesday phone call right
Speaker 4: after this. Hold on, it's awkward, it's Tuesday.
Speaker 3: It's awkward Tuesday phone call.
Speaker 4: We've all been a guest at a wedding and as
Speaker 4: the bride is walking down the aisle, you think, dang,
Speaker 4: if she wasn't getting married right now, that would be
Speaker 4: all over. Okay, maybe not all of us have thought that,
Speaker 4: but our listener, Denise is hoping.
Speaker 7: One guy was a guy named.
Speaker 4: Caleb who actually attended her wedding three years.
Speaker 2: Ago, the only time she's ever met him.
Speaker 4: Right now, her marriage did not stand the test of time.
Speaker 4: She's been separated about a year now, but she never
Speaker 4: forgot Caleb, so she's come to us today seeking advice
Speaker 4: on how to gauge his interest three years after they
Speaker 4: met at her nuptials. Definitely a different type of call
Speaker 4: that we're doing today.
Speaker 7: But Brooke, what advice do you have for Denise?
Speaker 2: Okay, Denise, I got to do in a don't all right?
Speaker 8: Okay, go ahead, Okay, don't.
Speaker 1: Bring up the connection that you had at your wedding
Speaker 1: while you were in a bridle ground.
Speaker 2: Okay, don't, okay, Okay.
Speaker 1: Do just tell him your friend who gave you his numbers,
Speaker 1: putting you up to this.
Speaker 2: It was all her idea. You've been and she's like,
Speaker 2: this is the guy you should call.
Speaker 1: So I barely remember you, but I'm doing this because
Speaker 1: my friend wanted me to.
Speaker 4: Okay, you don't even remember meeting him at your wedding barely. Okay,
Speaker 4: you know what do you think about that?
Speaker 7: Denise?
Speaker 8: Okay?
Speaker 9: Okay, oh okay.
Speaker 4: All right, Yeah, we're gonna pretend like you don't even
Speaker 4: know the guy and Jose, what's your advice?
Speaker 6: Well, I think it's most important that you get on
Speaker 6: the phone and then talk about whatever. Okay, you said
Speaker 6: that your chemistry with this guy is so good in
Speaker 6: just three minutes meeting him at your own wedding. Oh so,
Speaker 6: no matter what you talk about or bring up with him,
Speaker 6: chemistry's gonna take over.
Speaker 4: Okay, all right, just natural and normal talk.
Speaker 8: Whatever comes exactly. Okay, Okay, I think that's advice that's vague.
Speaker 6: Yeah, to answer the phone is my advice, perfectly perfect.
Speaker 4: So we're gonna just start dialing and see if he
Speaker 4: picks up. We will be here ready to jump in
Speaker 4: and feel like you need help, but you got this Denise.
Speaker 8: Okay, okay, just me, okay, okay.
Speaker 7: Okay, let's try it. I'm a dial it right now
Speaker 7: here we go?

Speaker 9: Is this Kayla speaking?
Speaker 8: Oh my hi? How are you? Uh?

Speaker 8: I'm not crazy, but I like, oh no, oh hello, yeah,
Speaker 8: So I I had met you before. I met you
Speaker 8: at a wedding and my friend was there and she
Speaker 8: had your number and put me up to doing this,
Speaker 8: so hang on, I was trying to be brave.

Speaker 9: I met you at a wedding or something.

Speaker 4: called the Awkward Tuesday phone Call because we're trying to
Speaker 4: help Denise have this really lovely conversation with you.
Speaker 2: Just own it, you know, conversation very yeah.
Speaker 7: Very natural sounding.
Speaker 4: Yeah, Denise remembers you from three years ago and she
Speaker 4: doesn't remember you.
Speaker 7: That well though.
Speaker 4: Friend friend thought that you two should get together.
Speaker 7: And have common right.
Speaker 8: I do remember told me I was stunning.
Speaker 9: Yeah, that's that's kind of what you say to a
Speaker 9: bride on her wedding day.
Speaker 7: You just say that to any bride.
Speaker 3: Oh wow, I.
Speaker 9: Might have told your sister the same thing if I remember.
Speaker 3: Oh my gosh, but she did.
Speaker 9: She did turn me down.
Speaker 4: Okay, okay, okay, so no boundaries have been crossed.
Speaker 2: Caleb? Are you single and available? Can we just start there?
Speaker 3: I am single? Yes, That not.
Speaker 2: Often that you meet somebody in the real world. That's
Speaker 2: what everybody wants right now, right like get off the apps.
Speaker 2: Meet Really, I.
Speaker 9: Would be happy to explore that option, maybe with less
Speaker 9: of an audience. I'm talking.
Speaker 8: Oh okay, so what you actually do want to have
Speaker 8: coffee with me? O, Caleb?
Speaker 9: I'm sure? Why not? No?
Speaker 1: Okay, she meant that in a way, She's not surprised
Speaker 1: at all, because she's a total.
Speaker 4: You know, her friend just thought that you two would
Speaker 4: have a strong connection.
Speaker 7: So this is perfect.
Speaker 4: Let's not continue it anymore and make it any more
Speaker 4: awkward than it already.
Speaker 2: Let's not talk about that wedding.
Speaker 4: We will step away and let you Denise talk to
Speaker 4: Caleb and find the time.
Speaker 7: To meet up.
Speaker 8: Awesome, thank you guys.
Speaker 7: Okay, awesome, absolutely, Wow.
Speaker 9: That was super weird put in.
Speaker 4: Like a fun type of way.
Speaker 9: I wasn't expecting the bride of a friend to reach
Speaker 9: out her.
Speaker 2: Dab, don't think of her that way.
Speaker 6: Yeah, it doesn't bug you at all that you tried
Speaker 6: with a sister and that didn't work.
Speaker 9: I think I probably asked out like five women that night.
Speaker 9: I don't really know.
Speaker 2: At dinner table.
Speaker 4: Ye, the whole time you should have been asking out
Speaker 4: the bride.
Speaker 7: Who would have.
Speaker 8: Thought Brook and Jeffrey in the morning.
Speaker 4: I think Denise hung up somewhere in the end.
Speaker 2: There she's too excited, yeah.
Speaker 4: Or her phone died, or she got nervous and she
Speaker 4: dropped it into the toilet, or she heard yeah.
Speaker 6: We'll figure it out and was like, Okay, that's why
Speaker 6: I need to hear it click.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you could definitely hear how anxious she was though,
Speaker 4: just being on the phone with him.
Speaker 6: I did not believe he said yes too for somebody
Speaker 6: who sounds like they said they had chemistry. Shoes not
Speaker 6: part of that chemistry.
Speaker 8: Ye.
Speaker 4: I do need our producer to reach out to Denise
Speaker 4: and tell her, you know, he did say yes to coffee.
Speaker 1: So yeah, I want an update from these two so bad.
Speaker 4: I do think it'd be funny if he texted her
Speaker 4: ahead of time and asked her to wear her wedding
Speaker 4: dress to their coffee day, would just so she just
Speaker 4: recognize as Yeah, remember how stunning she really is from
Speaker 4: that day. In fact, we encourage all of our listeners
Speaker 4: to put on your old wedding dress and go listen
Speaker 4: to our podcast in it.
Speaker 7: It's so you're wearing it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you spent a lot of money on it. You
Speaker 2: might as well wear it again.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 4: The show just hits better when you're wearing your wedding
Speaker 4: clothes to it.
Speaker 7: I'm so glad I'm married.
Speaker 4: Yeah, you can find us wherever you get yours.
Speaker 7: We're online at Brooke and Jeffrey
