Speaker 1: Second d friends, we have another mystery on our hands.
Speaker 1: Those because normally when we do these calls, the other
Speaker 1: person has completely ghosted our listener and is avoiding any contact. Right, Well,
Speaker 1: that's not the case here. In this one. The guy
Speaker 1: has moved in with her and is paying her entire rent.
Speaker 1: I don't get it. I'm kidding. They're not that close
Speaker 1: at all. But okay, Megan, our listener wants our help
Speaker 1: because the guy is asking her out. She's just not
Speaker 1: interested in the type of date that he has in mind. Interesting,
Speaker 1: she wants our help. Megan, Welcome to the show. Hi, guys,
Speaker 1: how are you good. I'm really curious about this conundrum
Speaker 1: you're in. Yeah. Yeah, Well, so I met this guy online.
Speaker 1: We were chatting for several weeks. Okay, what's his name?
Speaker 1: His name is Finn. Finn Okay, yeah, I don't know
Speaker 1: any since so it was kind of drawn to him
Speaker 1: by a unique name, and then you know, we're getting
Speaker 1: to know each other over. Of course, there was several
Speaker 1: weeks chatting online, and one of the things he mentioned
Speaker 1: was that he had younger sisters and that he's protective
Speaker 1: over them. So I felt like, this is a guy
Speaker 1: that knows how to be a respectable woman. But he's
Speaker 1: an older brother, so it's still questionable. Yeah, I mean
Speaker 1: the younger brother always because he's been beaten down the
Speaker 1: older brother. It's really a crup toting exactly or he
Speaker 1: who or he could just be a jerk to him,
Speaker 1: I mean who knows? Right, Yeah, but I notified that
Speaker 1: maybe he had that, like more of that alpha big
Speaker 1: brother presence. I'm attracted to that, Okay, okay, Yeah, So anyways,
Speaker 1: for our first date, he actually invited me over to
Speaker 1: his house, which is not something typically you do with
Speaker 1: somebody that you've met online, right, well, not do but
Speaker 1: alpha men, you're right over it's actually a den I
Speaker 1: believe they call it a den. Yes, so you felt
Speaker 1: comfortable doing that? You felt okay with it? I did?
Speaker 1: I did. I felt like I got to know him well,
Speaker 1: you know, well enough online that I felt fairly comfortable
Speaker 1: going over. Yeah. It was interesting. You know, he gave
Speaker 1: me an address to go meet him, and I I'm
Speaker 1: driving into the Neighborhood's a really beautiful neighborhood, full up
Speaker 1: to the house, and I wasn't really sure, like, am
Speaker 1: I at the right destination? Um? A beautiful house as
Speaker 1: a house. It's not an apartment. Huh No, it was
Speaker 1: like a huge it was like, I guess it could
Speaker 1: be considered a mansion. Who house, Okay, like it was
Speaker 1: a serious house. I mean, it turns out that his
Speaker 1: family is very well off, and like they parents allowed
Speaker 1: him to rent the house from them's house. We use rent,
Speaker 1: I'm sure in quotes right now meet me in the
Speaker 1: West Way. Yeah, well if you could, if you get
Speaker 1: to reap the benefits of that, then go for it,
Speaker 1: I said. I mean it was awesome. So you're you're
Speaker 1: impressed walking up to the door. Yeah, I mean he
Speaker 1: had a whole game room and there's like a billiards table,
Speaker 1: like a shovel board. We played all these things. There
Speaker 1: was a bar, like a full stock bar with beer
Speaker 1: on tap in it. What was he like, like, it's
Speaker 1: great that he's rich, But what was your vibe with him? No,
Speaker 1: one honestly cares. Do you take hoverboards between all the rooms?
Speaker 1: You guys got along? Yeah, you casual. He wasn't like
Speaker 1: stuck up for snobby about it. He's like, oh, let
Speaker 1: me show you around, and that's good talk. What was
Speaker 1: the most romantic part of the night, That's what Brooke
Speaker 1: wants to know. Yeah, sure, I would take dinner. Um,
Speaker 1: he ordered in from a really really nice steakhouse. Oh wow,
Speaker 1: you ordered delivery that steakhouse days and lobster tail. But
Speaker 1: he had set it up and outdoor patto and he
Speaker 1: laid out the table and everything and they had like
Speaker 1: a beautiful view. So that was like the most romantic
Speaker 1: part of it. That's better. It sounds lazy. He wouldn't
Speaker 1: take you to steakhouse, but that's pretty nice. Like, and
Speaker 1: this man wants to go out with you again? Why
Speaker 1: are you talking to us? This sounds amazing. Well, so
Speaker 1: after I left him, we had a great time. He
Speaker 1: invited me over again for a second date. But awesome.
Speaker 1: I have actually suggested us going out somewhere and like
Speaker 1: having fun and you know, maybe dancing a little bit.
Speaker 1: But he was really adamant about going back to his house.
Speaker 1: Is it like sending you red flags? And he's like
Speaker 1: trying to keep things secret or something like famous where
Speaker 1: he like literally is like I don't want to I
Speaker 1: was getting married, but yeah, not famous enough. You don't
Speaker 1: want to hang out back at his house. I mean
Speaker 1: it's not that I've minded, but it just seems weird
Speaker 1: that he was here. I mean just his tone. He
Speaker 1: was very specific about just staying in at his place. Yeah,
Speaker 1: not a good sign. Well, maybe he has a second
Speaker 1: parents house that he wants to show you that that's true.
Speaker 1: Oh um, are you worried that it's like too good
Speaker 1: to be true? Why can't tall like hiding me? Or
Speaker 1: if he's trying to just get my pants and he
Speaker 1: just wants to get there quicker. I have no idea
Speaker 1: what Alexis will tell you. That's not the worst thing
Speaker 1: in the world. Yeah, yeah, okay, So even though he
Speaker 1: is reaching out and asking for a date, you want
Speaker 1: a different type of date out in public, Yeah, I
Speaker 1: want like a social date. Yeah. And honestly, you just
Speaker 1: want to find out why why he's so adamant about
Speaker 1: the house. We have a mystery and we're putting on
Speaker 1: our Sherlock Holmes costumes as we speak, I detective attire
Speaker 1: is coming out, and then when we come back, we're
Speaker 1: going to try and get you your second date up date.
Speaker 1: Right after this second date, we're on the phone with
Speaker 1: one of our listeners named Megan, who went out on
Speaker 1: an interesting first date with a guy named Finn, and
Speaker 1: Megan There's something that you mentioned when you wrote your
Speaker 1: email to us that you didn't talk about in the
Speaker 1: first part. What's that? Because you said that you had
Speaker 1: your first date at his place, which turned out to
Speaker 1: be this really big mansion that his parents owned, yet
Speaker 1: steak dinner ordered in. But in your email you said
Speaker 1: that Finn cut your steak for you. Is that? Is
Speaker 1: that a sweet thing or is that a I think
Speaker 1: it depends if you ask I hate cutting, mind someone
Speaker 1: else cutting. That's probably because you order it super well
Speaker 1: done and you have to use a chainsaw to get
Speaker 1: into it. Why would you do? What was your read
Speaker 1: on that, Megan? I mean, at the moment, like, I
Speaker 1: thought it was kind of sneering because the food is
Speaker 1: actually delivered with past steak flatwear, and he took out
Speaker 1: actual like steak knives, so I thought he was doing
Speaker 1: it to be like courtious and nice and serving. Okay,
Speaker 1: here comes the airplane. Also, I would love Jose just
Speaker 1: supposed to be a giantman child. I really just did
Speaker 1: take care of a But did your mind change about
Speaker 1: it? It It sounds like you were gonna say but I mean,
Speaker 1: like when you say it out loud, Yeah, it sounds
Speaker 1: like kind of creezy, but in the moment it wasn't
Speaker 1: that way, but it felt fine in the in the time.
Speaker 1: In retrospect, right, probably should have just handed the knife
Speaker 1: to you and let you cut it. Well, I think
Speaker 1: it is right you ask. Like some girls like Brook
Speaker 1: or like you, I can cut my own steak man.
Speaker 1: It's just I'm not a child. I want my whole meal.
Speaker 1: But I love it. I feel like it could have
Speaker 1: been a chivalrous move. And let's call this chivalrous man
Speaker 1: and find out for sure. Because the weird part is
Speaker 1: he is asking her out. He's just not willing to
Speaker 1: go away from his house. He wants to keep it
Speaker 1: kind of SECRETA. This is gonna be a weird call.
Speaker 1: Can I have a phone number for you? Jeff? You
Speaker 1: know what you're asking? I thought you just didn't you
Speaker 1: go ahead and dial the numbers you ask, That's what
Speaker 1: I was saying. That was really sweet. Host dial the
Speaker 1: numbers for me, and we're gonna call Finn and talk
Speaker 1: to him. Here we go. Hello, Hey, is this Finn? Yes?
Speaker 1: You speaking? Hey? So sorry? I hope this isn't a
Speaker 1: bad time. Um, you're on the radio right now? Is
Speaker 1: Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning. Um, excuse me, who
Speaker 1: is this. We're a morning radio show. It's called Brooke
Speaker 1: and Jeffrey. Uh, we're doing a segment called a second
Speaker 1: Date Update. We're reaching out for one of our listeners
Speaker 1: who you went out with the other Well, I guess
Speaker 1: not didn't go out with, you stayed in with at
Speaker 1: your house. You guys had a date. Her name was Megan. Um, okay,
Speaker 1: I don't I don't understand. Why is she reaching out
Speaker 1: to you? Why are you calling me? Well, apparently there's
Speaker 1: a little bit of a miscommunication because you are asking
Speaker 1: her out on another date. You just don't want to go,
Speaker 1: like out out in public with her. Yeah, that's just
Speaker 1: sending up some weird vibes. Maybe there is there, like
Speaker 1: a reason. No, it's just, um, I'm just trying to,
Speaker 1: you know, get to know her more, that's all, okay?
Speaker 1: And why your house? Every time we heard your house
Speaker 1: is beautiful? I mean yeah, dude, no, yeah it's great,
Speaker 1: it's great. Yeah, it's a great place. So you know
Speaker 1: what's the problem, right, Well, it just seems counterintuitive because
Speaker 1: normally people want to get to know someone before they
Speaker 1: invite him over. But you want to get to know
Speaker 1: her before you go out in public. Yeah, but we've
Speaker 1: stalked for a long time online. We really got to
Speaker 1: know each other. Yeah, that's good. She mentioned that, and
Speaker 1: and she said she's really likes you. But one of
Speaker 1: one of the theories that has been circulating around here
Speaker 1: is that maybe you're trying to hide her. That you
Speaker 1: don't hide her. No, you don't want anybody to see
Speaker 1: that you're out with her. No, not at all. That's
Speaker 1: good to hear. Okay, a picture of you two right now. Great,
Speaker 1: that's cute. You said she's great. Yes, absolutely, I mean
Speaker 1: she's beautiful. What's the problem. Why won't you take her out?
Speaker 1: Like that's what she would really like? Well, I mean,
Speaker 1: I are you like you sound sound like something is there?
Speaker 1: You know what's going on? You just don't want to tell.
Speaker 1: Are you married or something? Is that? What knows? What
Speaker 1: is it? Then? Look at we're assuming the worst of you.
Speaker 1: Just if it's something that's simple, just clear it up.
Speaker 1: It's well, it's not simple, but it's just stupid. It's stupid.
Speaker 1: And I just that's great. We love stupid. Yeah, we're
Speaker 1: experts and stupid on this show. I'm so stupid, bro.
Speaker 1: I'm trying to make it feel comfortable. No, I've just true, well, essentially, essentially,
Speaker 1: for the next six months, I'm not allowed to leave
Speaker 1: the house. Rules from your parents. Why is it why
Speaker 1: we think it's I'm under house arrested. That's what I figured. Okay,
Speaker 1: what did you do? Is it for something really bad
Speaker 1: or just like kind of in jail? Right, it's stupid
Speaker 1: what you're doing. I don't even know I could say this, though,
Speaker 1: you'd you take it more house arrest for just telling
Speaker 1: people what happened. True. Basically, me and my buddies we
Speaker 1: got together to pretend like we were the village people. Well,
Speaker 1: I work in TV and film, and so I had
Speaker 1: a police uniform and my buddy has a construction worker uniform.
Speaker 1: We all got together. We pretended like we were the
Speaker 1: village people to play at this casino. So we show
Speaker 1: up and they're like, uh no, you're not the village people, right,
Speaker 1: are super old, probably at least one of them. So
Speaker 1: let me see if I understand what you're saying. You
Speaker 1: and your friends impersonated a famous band to get money
Speaker 1: from a casino and you got caught. Well, I mean, yeah,
Speaker 1: so what is that that's like defrauding a company. Yeah,
Speaker 1: that's it. It doesn't matter what the charges are really
Speaker 1: because I'm on house, arrested and I can't go anywhere. Okay,
Speaker 1: she was gonna notice if you ever got intimate, because
Speaker 1: that is well, ye can't hide that one. Yeah, here's
Speaker 1: the good news. I know you didn't want to come
Speaker 1: out with the truth to Megan, but you kind of did. Yeah.
Speaker 1: I didn't tell you this before. She's on the other
Speaker 1: line listening. What surprised Hi, Ali, Megan? I mean I
Speaker 1: wasn't really expecting that's the reason why we couldn't go out.
Speaker 1: If I'm relieved that you're not married or have a
Speaker 1: girlfriend or are you a better option? Yeah, well, you know,
Speaker 1: it's like it's so stupid. I don't I don't want
Speaker 1: to that to be our first thing that we're talking about,
Speaker 1: and I'm just like, oh God, how do I do this? Yeah?
Speaker 1: I mean, Megan, now you've you've heard the real reason
Speaker 1: that he's not calling you back because he's a secret
Speaker 1: Village People impersonator who defrauds casinos. Is that a turn
Speaker 1: off to you or is that a turn on? I mean,
Speaker 1: I guess just going back to our first dat I
Speaker 1: don't know why you didn't just tell me. Well, it's
Speaker 1: not exactly something you lead off with. You know, Hey,
Speaker 1: by the way, you know, I'm a criminal. I'm currently
Speaker 1: under house arrest. I mean, like with the second date,
Speaker 1: like you're inviting me back, right, and if I did
Speaker 1: go and we kept a charade up, I'd eventually find out. No, No,
Speaker 1: you wouldn't have found out. How would you not found out? Oh,
Speaker 1: I mean because you've never you would have never seen
Speaker 1: the bracelet. How what I don't want to He wears
Speaker 1: snow boots everywhere, maybe to put his monitor on a
Speaker 1: different part of his body. You never find if you
Speaker 1: can't find that part of the body, do you hear
Speaker 1: a beeping? Yeah? I mean I just think that it's
Speaker 1: weird that you think that I wouldn't find out right now,
Speaker 1: I think you should have told me. Yeah, yeah, I know,
Speaker 1: it's it's just not something. I'm just embarrassed by it.
Speaker 1: I don't want to I don't want to tell you. Well,
Speaker 1: that makes sense, though, Megan. You can see that he's
Speaker 1: finally at least it took a lot of prodding, but
Speaker 1: he did finally admit the truth to you, Megan. He's
Speaker 1: come clean. Would you like to go out on another
Speaker 1: date with him? We will offer you a gift card
Speaker 1: to his house. No, I think we just have to
Speaker 1: get post Yeah, exactly, do we? Or we can pay
Speaker 1: for the uber to and from. How many more months
Speaker 1: are you still on your house arrest there, Finn, I
Speaker 1: got three left? Okay, just three more months of dating
Speaker 1: at his house and then you can go out somewhere. Yeah,
Speaker 1: go back to that casino and do not do the
Speaker 1: village people thing together. Yeah, no, that's off limits. I
Speaker 1: can't come back there for a few years. Okay, Well
Speaker 1: maybe you just do do it at a bar or
Speaker 1: at a senior home or something and work your way up.
Speaker 1: But we will do that. We'd like to get you
Speaker 1: guys back together. Yeah, I mean, it's not like a
Speaker 1: deal breaker for me. I'm I mean to be full honest.
Speaker 1: I've been binge watching Animal Kingdoms, so I'm all about
Speaker 1: you know, criminal stuff right now? All right? Ye, zebras
Speaker 1: look great in black and white? So is this a
Speaker 1: yes for another day? Yes, that's a yes. I think.
Speaker 1: All right, we'll get you back over to Finn's places
Speaker 1: parents house. Awesome. I can't think of a worse endorsement
Speaker 1: for online dating. Than screw it. I'm not going to
Speaker 1: meet somebody else. I'm just gonna keep seeing the guy
Speaker 1: who's under house arrest for the next three months. Oh
Speaker 1: that's true, brooking Jeffrey in the morning. Man. You know,
Speaker 1: the more I think about it, the more I'm not
Speaker 1: sure if she should have said yes to another day
Speaker 1: just now. Well. I wanted to be happy for them,
Speaker 1: but now I don't know. Okay, listen, I've dated a fellow,
Speaker 1: but he was honest about it from the beginning. Like
Speaker 1: that guy was just he would have never told her.
Speaker 1: He even admitted that ye months left. There's no way
Speaker 1: she wouldn't have found out, right, And the guy sounded
Speaker 1: like he was in his early thirties. So that's usually
Speaker 1: the time in your life when you stop making really
Speaker 1: stupid decisions. Wow, Like I get the idea of him
Speaker 1: and his buddies at a bar one night, being like, oh,
Speaker 1: you know, it would be really funny. Let's all dress
Speaker 1: up like the village people and try and steal money
Speaker 1: from the casino. That's where it should have ended. I
Speaker 1: don't even get that part, like a dream, because that's
Speaker 1: not how Brad Pitt and George Clooney didn't well, I mean,
Speaker 1: it's a guy thing. You kind of joke around about
Speaker 1: stuff like that, but you don't actually buy the costumes
Speaker 1: and go to the casino and actually take the money.
Speaker 1: He already had them. I mean, to be fair, maybe
Speaker 1: there was a little legitimacy, but I remember, if you
Speaker 1: ever want to get a second AD update, you can
Speaker 1: always reach out to us. We'll call that person who
Speaker 1: isn't calling you back. Brooke and Jeffrey in the morning,
