Speaker 1: Hey, no such thing as a Sunday scaries. When you
Speaker 1: got a new podcast. Yes, Hey, it's Brook and Jeffrey
Speaker 1: in the Morning. You found the Second Date Update podcast
Speaker 1: And every Sunday we do a little something special than
Speaker 1: we do on the show.
Speaker 2: This time it's a brand new Say Yes to the X.
Speaker 1: And we do already have some comments because it was
Speaker 1: up on YouTube already.
Speaker 2: What are people saying about this episode?
Speaker 3: Someone named Rooster said, not everyone should be able to
Speaker 3: buy a mic Okay, this is about say Yes to
Speaker 3: the X.
Speaker 1: That should be you should have to pass some sort
Speaker 1: of test to be able to own a microphon.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, you're gonna understand why.
Speaker 1: They said that, starting right now with your brand new
Speaker 1: Say Yes to the X here with Brook and Jeffrey
Speaker 1: in the Morning.
Speaker 4: Everyone knows when it comes to relationships, the biggest fights
Speaker 4: always start over the dumbest, most trivial things.
Speaker 3: That is so true.
Speaker 4: Brooks told us that her marriage almost ended four different
Speaker 4: times over how to properly load the dishwasher.
Speaker 3: No, I told there, ye can figure it out. I
Speaker 3: mean he like, why would you put the bulls like that?
Speaker 3: Just don't understand.
Speaker 4: Okay, he's not here, right now buy you can have
Speaker 4: that fight later when you go home. But naturally, that's
Speaker 4: why one of our listeners has reached out. He got
Speaker 4: dumped months ago by his ex girlfriend during an argument
Speaker 4: about toenails. Not only has he changed his way since then,
Speaker 4: he's brought receipts to prove it, hoping he can get
Speaker 4: one more chance with her. We'll see if it works out.
Speaker 4: In a brand new Say Yes to the X. Right
Speaker 4: after this, it's Brooken Jeffrey in the morning back with
Speaker 4: a brand new edition of Say Yes to the X.
Speaker 4: Oh Yeah, if you haven't heard it before, it's where
Speaker 4: we try to connect two mostly sane people who've been
Speaker 4: broken up with each other for whatever reason, and one
Speaker 4: of them wants another chance.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 4: And it's interesting because in the past week we've received
Speaker 4: a lot of submissions from people who want to reconnect
Speaker 4: with an old flame.
Speaker 2: Is like the season for it, or something's going.
Speaker 5: On out of the any of us, any of our exes.
Speaker 4: Jeff thank you for bringing this up, because Brooke, I
Speaker 4: wanted to say this directly to you. Yeah, God, please
Speaker 4: stop submitting. We have received fourteen different email requests from
Speaker 4: Brook with different guys on each one, and well, we
Speaker 4: appreciate you not only being a host but also a
Speaker 4: listener to the show. We're gonna ask you to pause
Speaker 4: your thirst, try to quench it for a little bit,
Speaker 4: and maybe help out someone else who's not working on
Speaker 4: this show.
Speaker 3: Family Jeffrey A. I am happily married and b.
Speaker 4: And why do you puay air quotes up every time?
Speaker 3: I have way more than fourteen exes that never would
Speaker 3: be vastly hot.
Speaker 4: But only fourteen that you really pined for. Still Anyway,
Speaker 4: I'm sure we could discuss your dating history for years
Speaker 4: and years on this show, but let's try and help
Speaker 4: out somebody who needs our help right now. His name
Speaker 4: is Gavin. Thanks for being here, dude, tell us about
Speaker 4: this X that you want to reconnect with.
Speaker 6: Yeah, Phil Michelle, we dated for a little while, a
Speaker 6: few months, I guess. Then it was going really well.
Speaker 6: I was super into her.
Speaker 4: Yeah, first few.
Speaker 1: Months normally go really well, right, you would hope, Yeah,
Speaker 1: starts off bad, then it's usually a red flag.
Speaker 3: Why did you guys break up?
Speaker 6: Okay, So I've been doing this podcast where I would
Speaker 6: tell personal stories from my life.
Speaker 3: You were the host. You were telling your own stuff
Speaker 3: on the podcast.
Speaker 4: You're our competition.
Speaker 6: Oh no, no, not at all.
Speaker 2: So people think this is so simple, but it gets
Speaker 2: messy real quick.
Speaker 5: Wait a minute, is this Gavin from Gavin and Gavin
Speaker 5: in the Morning.
Speaker 4: So what you told stories about your own life on
Speaker 4: this podcast?
Speaker 6: Yeah, it would just be, you know, embarrassing stories from
Speaker 6: my life or if I had a crazy night out
Speaker 6: with my buddies.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 6: But then part of it was telling stories about my
Speaker 6: dating life.
Speaker 4: Yeah, and so.
Speaker 6: That would include details about like my new girlfriend.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, yeah, because they're not I'll say I've done
Speaker 1: this for decades now, shared my own personal life, and
Speaker 1: like the rule that I always try to follow is
Speaker 1: I always try to tell my own story, not somebody else's,
Speaker 1: and I always try to make myself look.
Speaker 4: The worst, which was super easy for you.
Speaker 3: It's same to make funny right hate me in the beginning.
Speaker 1: I messed up all the time too. I heard some
Speaker 1: people's feelings. I'm guessing that's what happened to you.
Speaker 6: Yeah, So anytime somebody did something strange or out of pocket,
Speaker 6: we just talk about like is this weird? Is it
Speaker 6: a red flag? Like I did it with all the
Speaker 6: girls I had dated.
Speaker 3: It wasn't doesn't make it okay with Michelle though, what
Speaker 3: was she?
Speaker 4: Was she on the podcast talking about it with you
Speaker 4: or was it just you talking about it by yourself?
Speaker 6: No, she was not, a guess, it was just me
Speaker 6: talking about it.
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, what incident did you share that upset her?
Speaker 3: Let's share it again?
Speaker 4: Huh. At least we know beforehand this is not the
Speaker 4: okay story. It's not his current girlfriend, so he's allowed
Speaker 4: to talk. It's not yet.
Speaker 6: I don't even remember the specific details. But it was
Speaker 6: like there was one time where she threw a tantrum.
Speaker 6: It was like about where we clipped our toenail.
Speaker 3: Oh yeah, like what room you clipped them? You do
Speaker 3: it in a gross place, that's a reason. Yeah, the
Speaker 3: only answer is the bathroom. Everywhere else kind of gross outside.
Speaker 6: Maybe that's not like I was doing it like at
Speaker 6: the dinner table or or anything on her bed pillow
Speaker 6: or anything like that.
Speaker 1: Okay, So wait, when you're telling this story on the podcast,
Speaker 1: I'm guessing you're not making fun of yourself. You're telling
Speaker 1: it about how she's getting upset for no reason.
Speaker 6: I guess I'm realizing more and also from y'all's reactions
Speaker 6: that it's it's people are kind of sensitive about it
Speaker 6: more than I think about.
Speaker 3: I got your back.
Speaker 5: I chew my fingernails all the time and I put
Speaker 5: them in a little pile in front of me, and
Speaker 5: every once in a while I forget to throw them
Speaker 5: away after the break.
Speaker 4: I can see why that's gross.
Speaker 2: I mean, that doesn't matter.
Speaker 1: It's that you're talking about it the podcast, right, Like,
Speaker 1: what's what's her response?
Speaker 4: Well? How first of all, if she wasn't on the podcast,
Speaker 4: how did she learn about it?
Speaker 6: Like? Did you tell her about it?
Speaker 4: There's a lot of stuff that I don't tell people
Speaker 4: that I dated.
Speaker 3: You have a full show, and you wouldn't tell the
Speaker 3: person you're dating.
Speaker 4: Never Are you kidding? This is so embarrassing.
Speaker 3: She knew about the podcast, right.
Speaker 6: Yeah, she knew about the podcast, but she didn't like
Speaker 6: listen to it all the time. But one of her
Speaker 6: friends founded and forwarded the audio that yeah, oh god.
Speaker 2: Does that means somebody else is upset about it for her?
Speaker 4: And she wasn't thrilled that you were talking about her.
Speaker 6: No, she got really pissed off and confronted me about it,
Speaker 6: and we got into it and she was like, you
Speaker 6: have no right to broadcast my life, and I was like,
Speaker 6: what's my life I'm broadcasting?
Speaker 3: I mean, is that what you guys broke up over?
Speaker 2: Then?
Speaker 4: Yeah?
Speaker 6: Yeah, she said she felt that she was like totally
Speaker 6: the trade and I'm an a hole for talking about it,
Speaker 6: and she dumped me.
Speaker 2: Okay, okay, and where are you at with that now?
Speaker 3: Are you regretful?
Speaker 6: Absolutely regretful. I mean I don't even do the podcast anymore,
Speaker 6: and I took down all of it, and I feel
Speaker 6: like I'm mature and I have a perspective on things now.
Speaker 6: So wait a.
Speaker 5: Minute, I mean, does she know that you quit the
Speaker 5: whole podcast because of this?
Speaker 7: That's kind of.
Speaker 1: Endearing because he didn't have any listeners ratings.
Speaker 8: Again, Well, you couldn't talk about your dates.
Speaker 6: I mean, I didn't have any delusions of grandeury. It
Speaker 6: was always just a fun thing and.
Speaker 4: It ran its course, and now you moved on to
Speaker 4: whatever it's next. Well, she might be happy to hear
Speaker 4: that you don't have a podcast to talk about her
Speaker 4: on anymore, and that seemed to be the biggest issue
Speaker 4: that she had.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean, I have different opinions now about sharing
Speaker 6: my things for all the public to know. But like
Speaker 6: I learned less by doing that.
Speaker 4: Hopefully you could share a little bit more about yourself personally.
Speaker 2: You know, we call the person who hates to be
Speaker 2: in the public.
Speaker 4: Actually Brooks, she's already on the line right now, waiting
Speaker 4: on hold. She just doesn't know why yet.
Speaker 3: Okay, so she knows. She knows she's about to be
Speaker 3: on the radio.
Speaker 4: Yes, she does not know that it's her ex boyfriend
Speaker 4: Gavin on the other line, hoping to get another chance
Speaker 4: with her. Do not tell her.
Speaker 5: I have four fingernails in front of me right now.
Speaker 4: We're leaving all the nails cups out of the conversation.
Speaker 4: We're just going to focus on Gavin and Michelle and
Speaker 4: the possibility of reconciling when we come back and continue
Speaker 4: Say Yes to the X right after this. If you're
Speaker 4: just joining us, we're in the middle of Say Yes
Speaker 4: to the X with our listener, Gavin, who has been
Speaker 4: thinking a lot about his ex girlfriend Michelle lately because
Speaker 4: they split up months ago. When Gavin was doing his
Speaker 4: own podcast at the time, telling stories about his personal life. Yea,
Speaker 4: and naturally that included details of his dating life with Michelle.
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, he did describe her being upset as
Speaker 1: a tantrum even to us, which.
Speaker 5: A bad description, right right.
Speaker 3: Yeah, unless you really don't want to talk to something,
Speaker 3: we are.
Speaker 4: And when she found that out, she obviously didn't like
Speaker 4: being talked about on his show. It led to her
Speaker 4: breaking things off with him. Yeah, but the good news
Speaker 4: is things are different now. Gavin. You're not doing your
Speaker 4: podcast anymore. You took it down. You say you've matured,
Speaker 4: you're reconsidering Alexis. Can you not do that in the
Speaker 4: middle of our show.
Speaker 3: She's trying to interrupt you.
Speaker 4: Actually extremely rude to do that. But Gavin, you're hoping
Speaker 4: for another chance now that that chapter is behind you.
Speaker 4: Are you feeling nervous before we bring her on?
Speaker 6: Absolutely?
Speaker 1: And you know what, we didn't ask what was the
Speaker 1: last conversation you had with her?
Speaker 6: Like, I think it's the breakup conversation. I don't remember
Speaker 6: having any contact after that.
Speaker 1: Sad.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean it started heated, but by the end
Speaker 6: I was pretty sad. I regret the whole thing.
Speaker 4: I'm sure we could have heard it on your podcast
Speaker 4: exactly what it was like if you didn't take it.
Speaker 3: Could you repeat that? I didn't hit record.
Speaker 4: Anyway, So again, we've moved on from that from your
Speaker 4: old podcast, and now Michelle is on the phone. She
Speaker 4: hasn't heard any of the previous segment that we did
Speaker 4: with her. We've just had her on hold this whole time,
Speaker 4: and she knows she's been selected to be on the radio,
Speaker 4: just doesn't know why yet.
Speaker 1: Disappointing when she doesn't get concert tickets out of this.
Speaker 4: Yes, maybe not. Maybe she's gonna be really excited to
Speaker 4: learn how much Gavin has changed.
Speaker 5: I will say, look right, all right, the things that
Speaker 5: he's naturally done, deleting everything and quitting podcasting all together,
Speaker 5: I think is a huge gesture.
Speaker 4: But I don't think he did it before her.
Speaker 5: No, he just did it because he's like, hey, I
Speaker 5: don't need this anymore. Like he learned.
Speaker 2: He said, he's changed, he's grown.
Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I mean it was a it was a combination
Speaker 6: of things, but I definitely knew that it had to
Speaker 6: come down before I could do something like this.
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, point well, yeah, I think we're in a
Speaker 4: good spot. We're gonna bring on Michelle. We'll just talk
Speaker 4: to her first, Gavin, and then we'll tell her that
Speaker 4: you're on the line. But let's talk to her real quick,
Speaker 4: so let's punch her up here. Hello is this Michelle? Hello, Hey,
Speaker 4: hi Michelle.
Speaker 3: Good morning, welcome to the show.
Speaker 4: Good morning, good morning. Thank you so much for being
Speaker 4: on with us today. I'm sorry to keep you on
Speaker 4: hold for so long.
Speaker 8: All good, Okay, Yeah.
Speaker 3: We usually actually put people on hold for longer, so yeah,
Speaker 3: we like you.
Speaker 1: It's usually me and Saose. Forgot someone was on the
Speaker 1: phone and into the break room for.
Speaker 4: That person that won that prize, so tell them. But no,
Speaker 4: we're having you on today. I know you don't know
Speaker 4: why yet, but it's a segment that we do called
Speaker 4: say Yes to the X.
Speaker 8: I don't know if I'm like the sound of this.
Speaker 3: Okay, Okay, here Jeff out.
Speaker 4: Yeah, because there is a certain guy that you used
Speaker 4: to date, and basically you've been on his mind a
Speaker 4: lot lately. He isn't sure if you're dating anybody else
Speaker 4: right now, or if you're single or anything like that.
Speaker 4: But the whole point of this is he's open to
Speaker 4: the idea of maybe re exploring things with you.
Speaker 3: That's a good way to put it.
Speaker 8: Okay, but yes, who is it that you are talking about?
Speaker 4: Well, before I tell you do, you need to cough again.
Speaker 5: Okay, sorry before anticipation, yeah, before I say it.
Speaker 4: I just want to know are you dating anybody right now?
Speaker 4: Are you single?
Speaker 8: I am currently single, but I am dating.
Speaker 3: I'm dating around Okay, okay, you're going on dating.
Speaker 4: Okay. Well that's good to know. Because there is a
Speaker 4: certain X who says that you guys broke up not
Speaker 4: too long ago, just a few months back, and you
Speaker 4: had a fight with him about podcasting.
Speaker 2: Oh, should jump right in, Jeff, bring up the bad part.
Speaker 8: Oh it's Gavin.
Speaker 4: Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're good at guessing. Good job.
Speaker 8: Yeah, I remember. How could I forget?
Speaker 6: Yeah?
Speaker 8: He was talking about me a lot. All our friends
Speaker 8: are listening. I didn't like it. It was really embarrassing.
Speaker 8: It's a huge turn off for me at the time,
Speaker 8: and so I don't know, it's just it was weird
Speaker 8: for me.
Speaker 3: Okay, but the podcast never existed.
Speaker 2: Would the relationship have continued?
Speaker 8: It's hard to say.
Speaker 4: Maybe, Okay, Okay, there's a possibility there, and we would
Speaker 4: like to give you the chance to talk directly to
Speaker 4: Gavin about it because we're doing a podcast collab.
Speaker 7: No, no, it's not a podcast collab, but I will
Speaker 7: say Gavin is on the other line right now, waiting.
Speaker 4: To talk to you. Oh god, yeah, it's a good thing.
Speaker 4: I think.
Speaker 8: I'm not sure.
Speaker 4: Well let's find out. Gavin, are you there.
Speaker 6: I'm here, Govin.
Speaker 8: What are you doing?
Speaker 1: What is this?
Speaker 8: Why are we here?
Speaker 6: Look? The way I remember it is that when we
Speaker 6: were together, we had a good time, and we've broke
Speaker 6: up over something stupid, Like I stopped doing the podcast.
Speaker 6: It's not that important for me. It was just something
Speaker 6: I did for fun. I apologize for airing your dirty laundry.
Speaker 6: It's it's not something that I would do again. And
Speaker 6: I don't know. I heard you said that you're dating, Like, like,
Speaker 6: are you dating like a lot of people or I
Speaker 6: am dating?
Speaker 8: I'm exploring.
Speaker 6: I mean that's cool obviously, Like I wouldn't be like,
Speaker 6: oh no, you're dating people. I won't I'm not interested,
Speaker 6: Like you're a single person, but like, if you want
Speaker 6: to hang out, i'd be into that. Just said that,
Speaker 6: I mean, I don't know.
Speaker 8: I don't know about that, but I don't know if
Speaker 8: I want to. I want to tell you this because
Speaker 8: it's going to sound a little hypocritical.
Speaker 6: What what is it?
Speaker 8: I recently started my own podcast about dating.
Speaker 1: Right, that.
Speaker 3: Is fine.
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's her telling her own story.
Speaker 5: Yes, I see her like I'm engaged before saying I
Speaker 5: have a podcast.
Speaker 1: Okay, so you're comfortable talking about yourself.
Speaker 3: You just don't like to hear other people talk about you.
Speaker 8: It's different because at the time we were in a
Speaker 8: committed relationship and he was talking about me, and I'm
Speaker 8: not in that right now, I'm dating.
Speaker 4: You're just talking about random guys you go out on
Speaker 4: single dates with. Yes, Gavin, how does this make you
Speaker 4: feel hearing that?
Speaker 6: I mean, it's kind of crazy to me because I
Speaker 6: never would have thought that you would. So, like, you're
Speaker 6: talking about basically the same stuff though, right, like the
Speaker 6: people you date. No, it's different. I'm not. I mean
Speaker 6: my partner, like you.
Speaker 4: Did, just random guys. Random is in random.
Speaker 3: I mean that's every podcast ever. Yeah, if you don't know, if.
Speaker 4: You can't pinpoint the person, that's the good stuff.
Speaker 3: I can't tell. Gavin. Are you upset with her?
Speaker 1: Are you are you flattered that she he's like kind
Speaker 1: of following in your footsteps, like where's your head?
Speaker 6: I'm a little shocked and surprised by it, for sure,
Speaker 6: just not It's not something I would have expected given
Speaker 6: her a reaction to what happened.
Speaker 1: I can't believe you have an exit you still like
Speaker 1: and you didn't find her podcast?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 5: Do you not stock her pages?
Speaker 4: Bro It sounds like he's been so traumatized by his
Speaker 4: podcasting experience he probably doesn't go to any podcast or
Speaker 4: blocked him on everything. Yeah, okay, I'm sensing some common
Speaker 4: ground between the two.
Speaker 6: I mean, I guess that's cool. It doesn't bother me.
Speaker 6: I mean, obviously I have some experience doing it, so
Speaker 6: I understand why someone would do it.
Speaker 4: Kevin, do you want to listen to her podcast?
Speaker 3: And probably not other people she's dated?
Speaker 6: No?
Speaker 1: Hold on though, If you guys hang out, are you
Speaker 1: going to talk about him?
Speaker 4: Or you guys gonna do a co podcast together? He
Speaker 4: could be your guest.
Speaker 8: I wouldn't hang out with him if he wouldn't let
Speaker 8: me talk.
Speaker 6: About him.
Speaker 2: Open.
Speaker 4: I feel that that is juicy content to be like,
Speaker 4: I went on a date with my ex and now
Speaker 4: I'm gonna dish.
Speaker 8: Oh yeah, we have to talk about it.
Speaker 1: Okay, Okay, Gavin, looks like the tables have turned.
Speaker 5: My friend, These guys are going to go on dates
Speaker 5: now and then go report back on your own podcast
Speaker 5: on how good or bad the day was?
Speaker 4: Well, Michelle seems open to giving him one more chance
Speaker 4: for a date, as long as Gavin agrees to being
Speaker 4: talked about on her podcast.
Speaker 2: Gavin, he doesn't have a podcast.
Speaker 4: Will you say yes to your ex? Now, Gavin?
Speaker 6: I mean I would take the chances that that if
Speaker 6: I did anything embarrassing and stupid that I guess I
Speaker 6: would deserve to be exposed for it.
Speaker 4: It's funny that you use the word if.
Speaker 3: But so, you guys are gonna go out again?
Speaker 8: Are we?
Speaker 4: She sounds giddy.
Speaker 1: We're waiting on you, Yeah, because she's thinking of all
Speaker 1: the content she's gonna be.
Speaker 8: I know, my mind just started like swirling. I am down,
Speaker 8: I am ready.
Speaker 4: Well then, yes together. Is this the first time that
Speaker 4: we've ever had a positive ending to this segment?
Speaker 3: I mean I haven't been doing tally marks, so I'm going.
Speaker 6: To go with you.
Speaker 4: Yes, Yes, I swear. If Michelle's podcast becomes bigger than ours, though,
Speaker 4: we're coming after you, Michelle.
Speaker 8: Yeah, look out, I'm coming right at you.
Speaker 2: Done.
Speaker 4: It's on
Speaker 2: Brooke and Jeffrey in the Morning,
