Speaker 1: Second date, and whenever I go on a solo date,
Speaker 1: I like to spoil myself. And what does that include? Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: a Magnum bottle of wine, a box of Magnums, the chocolate,
Speaker 1: the chocolate ice cream bars, and then kicking my feet
Speaker 1: up on the couch and watching Magnum p I nineteen
Speaker 1: ninety one, Season four, episode six. It's my way of
Speaker 1: spoiling myself. But one of our listeners, Mark says he
Speaker 1: spoiled his lady when he went out the other night,
Speaker 1: and I'm definitely interested to hear about it. Mark, Welcome
Speaker 1: to the show. Can I call you Magnum Mark? Though
Speaker 1: I'm a gentleman, but I will accept all right, I
Speaker 1: feel like that's the name you already got from maybe
Speaker 1: one of your ex lovers. But Magnum Mark, tell us
Speaker 1: a little bit about the date that you went on
Speaker 1: the other night. What happened. So here's the deal. I
Speaker 1: don't like to just like Willie Nillie through things. I'm
Speaker 1: the kind of guy who I kind of like to
Speaker 1: spoil the ladies that I go out on dates with.
Speaker 1: I'm listening. Yeah, I mean Alexis likes that you're still single,
Speaker 1: So yeah, you're a gentleman. Yeah, I mean I I
Speaker 1: why why not keep it interesting? You know, so like
Speaker 1: by spoiling them, I means and surprising gifts. Why are
Speaker 1: you doing this on a first date? Like it feels
Speaker 1: like I don't know if I went out with a
Speaker 1: guy to be like already shaming something you don't you
Speaker 1: don't even know what he's done. Yeah, that's what I said.
Speaker 1: I didn't want be a pessimist, but I'm just trying
Speaker 1: to you know, Okay, why by things up? I like
Speaker 1: to keep things interesting. I always have like full disclosure
Speaker 1: that this is what I like to do on my
Speaker 1: on my profile. Okay, Okay, so people know going in
Speaker 1: it isn't a surprise to your dad exactly, And so
Speaker 1: tell us about your day. What's her name? Where'd you
Speaker 1: guys meet? Okay? Her name is to Eva and I
Speaker 1: met her online. I mean she is gorgeous. She she
Speaker 1: you know who? She kind of reminds me of that
Speaker 1: tum that girl on the show. Do you guys know
Speaker 1: the show Riverdale? You know the crazy one? I no, no,
Speaker 1: the other one Okay, her name, but like the really
Speaker 1: really hot one hot one on Riverdale kind of psycho. Yeah,
Speaker 1: I mean that's your to each of their own. So
Speaker 1: we're chatting for a while, like talking about our interests,
Speaker 1: and we got to talking about how stressful both of
Speaker 1: our lives have been lately and and just saying that
Speaker 1: we both need some relaxation. And light bulb goes off.
Speaker 1: That gave me an idea for a date. O, how
Speaker 1: to relax? What do you? What do you? What are
Speaker 1: you planning that? So I asked her out, and I
Speaker 1: kind of teased her by saying that I had a
Speaker 1: little surprise lined up for us. Okay, that's exciting. So
Speaker 1: I get we're an address to meet at, but I
Speaker 1: didn't tell her what we were doing, and I even
Speaker 1: blindfolded her before she went to the door. This scares
Speaker 1: me a little. I'm sorry, you're meeting a guy you
Speaker 1: never knew. He's putting a blindfold at daw you and
Speaker 1: telling you to meet him at an undisclosed locations. I
Speaker 1: don't sign me up for that. She knew that she
Speaker 1: was getting into this kind of a date, so I
Speaker 1: put this blindfold on her and I did a little
Speaker 1: reveal standing in front of the welcome counter. The welcome counter, Yeah,
Speaker 1: of what welcome counter at the Moon No it was
Speaker 1: a salot for a surprise spa day. Chances are good,
Speaker 1: like she probably google searched the address Trier to be
Speaker 1: totally That's what I would have done. She seemed shocked
Speaker 1: and happy, like she seemed definitely excited. Okay, And then
Speaker 1: after the massages, I had another surprise, a special sushi dinner.
Speaker 1: So we sat down and we ate sushi together, and
Speaker 1: at one point I tried to get her to kiss
Speaker 1: me by putting a little glob of wassabi on my lip.
Speaker 1: When your voice got all deep and sensual, I thought
Speaker 1: something really good was coming here. And then you like
Speaker 1: that would burn. Yeah, I feel like I have to
Speaker 1: take the magnum out of your magnum mulk. At this point,
Speaker 1: I said, do I have something on my face? And
Speaker 1: of course I was hoping that she would go in
Speaker 1: and kiss it off, but she didn't. She flicked it
Speaker 1: up with a chopstick. Thank someone's got stray food on
Speaker 1: your face. It is disgusting that someone else would want
Speaker 1: to put it inside their mouth. But you know what,
Speaker 1: the whole date overall seems like a pretty a decent
Speaker 1: date minus the wasabi. Yeah, he put a lot of
Speaker 1: effort out, how did you end things awesome? I mean,
Speaker 1: we ended things. It was great, you know, we said
Speaker 1: our goodbyes, and it seemed like we were gonna we're
Speaker 1: gonna hang out again sometime, and of course I hinted
Speaker 1: at another little surprise for her for our next date. Okay,
Speaker 1: and we but we have, we have been chatting over
Speaker 1: the last couple of days. But I do feel like
Speaker 1: she's avoiding me. Okay, I don't know. Man. Do you
Speaker 1: think it's and I've had this problem. Do you think
Speaker 1: it's too many surprises, you're being too romantic, You're doing
Speaker 1: too much too soon. Yeah, let's go with that. That's
Speaker 1: definitely it too amazing, too romantic. Well, but she has
Speaker 1: been responding to my text. She's just not making definite plans.
Speaker 1: I'm I'm just trying to get to the bottom of it. Yeah,
Speaker 1: Like maybe it's too easy, is what you're saying, Jose, Yeah,
Speaker 1: there's no challenge for her there. Let's find out. We're
Speaker 1: gonna play a song, come back, We'll call Ava for you,
Speaker 1: and we'll try and get your second date up date. Okay,
Speaker 1: thank you? All right, hold on, magnum, Michael, I've heard
Speaker 1: a lot of tricks for trying to get a kiss
Speaker 1: on a first date. Yeah, but putting with sabi on
Speaker 1: your lips and saying do I have anything on my face?
Speaker 1: I haven't heard that one yet, yeould, but that's what
Speaker 1: one of our listeners Mark tried. It's a curious move,
Speaker 1: that's for sure. Yeah it didn't work. Yeah, maybe that's
Speaker 1: the moment that turned everything for you, Mark, not all
Speaker 1: the spoiling stuff, with the surprises and the gifts. Maybe
Speaker 1: she just thinks you're too weird. Would you say you're weird? Mark? Wow?
Speaker 1: Because you know I'm weird. I've licked tabasco off people,
Speaker 1: places and things before, so I suppose I have an
Speaker 1: interesting sense of humor. Okay, it was supposed to be
Speaker 1: a funny first kiss. Besides the kiss part, it does
Speaker 1: seem like there's a lot of potential here. Yeah, you're
Speaker 1: really separating yourself from other guys. Bro, the things you're doing,
Speaker 1: you're spoiling her and then even the surprise kids. It
Speaker 1: didn't work, but it was very unique. I mean, she's
Speaker 1: never going to be on another date, I'm sure like that.
Speaker 1: I hope so, or maybe never on their date with
Speaker 1: you either. But I'm just trying to be Mark, we
Speaker 1: gotta whack you sense of humor, right, Mark? Yeah, I
Speaker 1: know you're joking. I just I really I'm hoping there's
Speaker 1: another shop for a date. And I think what the
Speaker 1: boys are saying too is if if she's not the
Speaker 1: one that wants to go out with you again, you
Speaker 1: just keep doing you because you'll find somebody. Alexis. I
Speaker 1: wasn't even finished, Alexis. You'll find somebody, Alexis. Yeah, we
Speaker 1: have a backup. We have a plan b ready for
Speaker 1: Thank you, ladies. It's good to get that feedback because
Speaker 1: you know, I do have a special little spark and
Speaker 1: I like to do these little surprises. And you're right,
Speaker 1: I will not stop good Okay, that's why they call
Speaker 1: him magnum Mark nobody. All right, I'm gonna diale of
Speaker 1: his number right now. We're going to see what she
Speaker 1: has to say. You ready, man, and let's just see
Speaker 1: what happens. Yeah, you go on your phone number right now. Hello,
Speaker 1: Hey is this Eva? Who is this Ava? It's me
Speaker 1: jeff from the radio show Broken Jeffrey in the Morning,
Speaker 1: your favorite morning show, Same Energy. Why are you calling me?
Speaker 1: Do you know who I am? I listen to you guys,
Speaker 1: sometimes a huge fan. You are weird, so weird. I
Speaker 1: am just calling on behalf of one of our fans.
Speaker 1: It's even bigger than you. His name is Mark. Mark
Speaker 1: is a guy that you went out with the other day.
Speaker 1: Uh yeah, something like that. What do he made something
Speaker 1: like that? It sounds like you guys had a really
Speaker 1: cool night that he put a lot of effort into.
Speaker 1: Wait he told you about our date? Yeah? Yeah, he
Speaker 1: gave us the rundown that he had a bunch of
Speaker 1: surprises find up for you with a spa day and
Speaker 1: a little surprised sushi dinner at this exclusive restaurant. Oh
Speaker 1: my god, he told you about spa Day. Yeah, sounds awesome.
Speaker 1: I thought it was going to be a little sleazy
Speaker 1: if you got you guys, like a couple's massage or something,
Speaker 1: But he just sounded like he really wanted to do
Speaker 1: something kind for you. So when I think of spaw Day,
Speaker 1: I'm sure you guys too, Like you imagine plush white
Speaker 1: robes and steam rooms and hot stone therapy. It sounds
Speaker 1: delicious and they're all that good stuff. Right yeah. So
Speaker 1: first of all, he blindfolded me, which like should have
Speaker 1: been a red flag, right, Yeah, you could think that,
Speaker 1: but you could also think fun. Yeah, so I was
Speaker 1: trying to be open minded and I was like, okay,
Speaker 1: I'll oh, let's this guy blindfold me whatever. So we
Speaker 1: get there and he takes my blindcold off, and where
Speaker 1: am I standing? Literally in front of one of those
Speaker 1: massage parlor rooms inside mall? Okay, like a strip mall,
Speaker 1: one of those. I've had good massages at places like that. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but usually, like when you get someone in a spa
Speaker 1: or you go to a spa, it's like it's it's
Speaker 1: either its own entity or it's in like a fancy
Speaker 1: hotel or Yeah, but beggars can't be choosers here. I mean,
Speaker 1: you can still get a good massage in a place
Speaker 1: like that. Well, like what is this? Like this this
Speaker 1: is like it's a it's a place in a mall
Speaker 1: and they have like little private rooms where you lie
Speaker 1: down or what there's zero privacy and like there's a
Speaker 1: bunch of people in one room getting massages on those
Speaker 1: weird like the chairs. Yeah, I've seen airport. Yeah, they
Speaker 1: usually like when you're on the go really fast, it's like, hey,
Speaker 1: I got like fifteen minutes before my flight. It was awkward.
Speaker 1: I mean, if you're gonna take me to a mall,
Speaker 1: that does not entail me needing to be blindfolded. You
Speaker 1: know a bunch of people I guess led through the
Speaker 1: mall and nobody stopped him. All that was happening. Yeah,
Speaker 1: but wasn't it relaxing? It had to have still been relaxing.
Speaker 1: It was okay, Like I couldn't really relax because I
Speaker 1: felt so awkward. And then like at one point he
Speaker 1: paid for a foot rub and he was audibly moaning
Speaker 1: he wasn't that would be men? I love nice. One
Speaker 1: good thing about it was we were right back to
Speaker 1: this pretzel shop and kept smelling. Mate. Yeah, dude, how
Speaker 1: did they get that sense so strong? I mean, honestly,
Speaker 1: so you were you were into No? I was not
Speaker 1: into it, Like it was too uncomfortable. But did you
Speaker 1: like the effort that he put in? I mean he
Speaker 1: did put in some effort. Yeah, I mean it may
Speaker 1: not have been exactly what you expected going into it,
Speaker 1: but like the surprise sushi, like that sounds pretty good. Yeah. Um,
Speaker 1: the surprise sushi came from his backpack and it live
Speaker 1: from a convenient sport sig mean the sidewalk. Oh, this
Speaker 1: is like this is like the most romantic date one.
Speaker 1: You know. It was like he's like he's got champagne
Speaker 1: tis soda, you know. Yeah, yeah, it's made fresh daily
Speaker 1: every day they make it. Okay, okay, oh Mark, Yeah, hey, yeah,
Speaker 1: he has one more little surprise for you. He's been
Speaker 1: on the other line listening this whole time. Wow, the
Speaker 1: surprises just keep on coming. You never know. With Magna
Speaker 1: Mart's right, Eva, I can't believe you didn't enjoy your massage.
Speaker 1: You seem to be having such a great time, and
Speaker 1: that place is legit. It's got like a four point
Speaker 1: two star rating on yell. Oh yeah, but you kept
Speaker 1: saying like get ready for a spaw day, Like I
Speaker 1: almost packed a duffel bag and then all of a sudden,
Speaker 1: I'm at the mall. Yeah. Oh they have like, you know,
Speaker 1: lovely fountains at the mall too. There's some nice smells.
Speaker 1: I think. I think, Mark, what she's saying is like
Speaker 1: expectations in reality. I mean, like her expectations were different,
Speaker 1: and maybe you elevated the idea a little bit too much. Look,
Speaker 1: didn't you tell me that the massage felt good? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I said that because I didn't know what else to say.
Speaker 1: Everybody was there listening. Hey, But if he would have
Speaker 1: just said, hey, you want to go to the mall
Speaker 1: and get a foot massage and eat some sushi in
Speaker 1: the parking lot, would you have been daffing? Would you
Speaker 1: that that is definitely not my style. I would hope
Speaker 1: you know me better than that by now, But that
Speaker 1: is your style, no joke. Next to the empty massage
Speaker 1: table next to me was a mom changing her kid's diaper.
Speaker 1: Let's place as family friendly, all right. I mean, just
Speaker 1: because I didn't spend a million dollars doesn't mean it
Speaker 1: was a cool surprise. Yeah. I mean, he's right, he
Speaker 1: didn't even spend twenty dollars. Does it really matter how
Speaker 1: much money I spent on massage? I mean, a good
Speaker 1: massage is a good massage. You're right. I mean I
Speaker 1: think the most incredible part about this whole phone call
Speaker 1: is that Ava's still able to talk after eating that
Speaker 1: gas station susition. I know the guy who makes it.
Speaker 1: It is such fresh fish. He tried, He put in effort.
Speaker 1: He listened to what your needs were, Ava, he tried
Speaker 1: to meet those needs. I get it. Everything you did
Speaker 1: was like it took time. It took planning, but all
Speaker 1: of your surprises were just not good Mark. I'm sorry, okay,
Speaker 1: but he did save the best surprise for last, and
Speaker 1: that's offering to go out with him one more time
Speaker 1: is fully paid for by this radio station. Yeah no, wait,
Speaker 1: wait to hold on, like you didn't even think for
Speaker 1: a second year, Like we painted a whole picture for you,
Speaker 1: and we have some actually nice gift cards that we
Speaker 1: can give to the two of you with like a
Speaker 1: table and chairs at a restaurant. Yeah. I mean that
Speaker 1: sounds really lovely and I appreciate it, but I mean
Speaker 1: the company is still the same, you know, no offense,
Speaker 1: no offense. I think we're too late for that part.
Speaker 1: I think this is the reason chivalry is dead. You know,
Speaker 1: a great guy goes out of his way to make
Speaker 1: you happy and it's just not good enough for you.
Speaker 1: With his way all the way on the other side
Speaker 1: of the cinnabon, and you still said no. Yeah yeah.
Speaker 1: Broke and Jeffrey in the morning
